What about the "ProCase"?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] Eggstones:
Sorry but I'm not sure what the issue is. Does magnetic cases actually destroy the screen or is it just interfering with the usage of the pen?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] jsalatas:
Hmmmm.... I'm having a similar issue as you can see in the following video

https://youtu.be/kaPxqq5Aqn0

However I'm not using any third party cases. I'm just using samsung's keyboard case.

:(

I bought my tablet at November 12 (less than a month) and I just created a service request. I'll keep you posted on any news.

In my case it is permanent :(

So that's what was happening to my note 10.1
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] TT Vario 2:
Hi

Ok, I have searched the net and found very few cases without the magnets, the official Samsung book cover looks as though if you dropped it, the tablet would just slide out, so protection wise, it seems useless, I might consider the official keyboard case if it can be folded round the back of the tablet, so using the tablet with the stylus to take notes etc (although the lack of camera cutout is still annoying) can anyone confirm it folds nicely and lies flat against the rear of the tablet ?

So if anyone has found a case, without the magnets, I would appreciate your help, links to where it can be purchased and thoughts

thanks

I've got the keyboard case. Yes, it folds behind the Tab S3. It doesn't have magnets so there is no waking on opening or screen off on closing. I use a screen off widget so I can cut down on always using the power button. I've gotten used to it now so it really doesn't bother me.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] TT Vario 2:
Hi

Many thanks for replying, I do not think I would need a keyboard enough to pay the extortionate $160 Samsung UK want for the case, especially when I see Best Buy have it for $64 in the US

So I Have ordered the standard Samsung book cover, at least that has the camera cutout :) and no magnets to damage the screen

(I presume the magnets have an effect on the screen all the while, even when the tablet is asleep, you only notice it when trying to use the S pen, so maybe that's why the damage becomes permanent with long term exposure to the magnetic field)

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] ds980x:
The issue i've always had with my official Samsung folder case is that even though I have my Tab S3 set to lock instantly when hitting power button or closing the case, sometimes when opening the case and the screen wakes actually bypassing the f@@@ing screen lock!! This must happen every 50 opens or so. Quite a bad security bug and cannot find anything on google about it. Such a mess the Tab 3, I hope the Tab S4 comes with the latest SoC and some actual optimization next time.

You wrote (on closing. I use a screen off widget)

Hi guys, was wondering if anyone here is using the Fintie case linked below or any other case by Fintie. Would like to know if this case contributes to the same magnetic interference for the S Pen as I'm interested in getting this case.

Perfect

Hi,

I do not have any experience with this case, but as soon as it mentions "auto wake" you can be sure it contains magnets,

you could always try it and see, easy returns with Amazon

TT
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] hooh888:
Hmm I can't find any case without magnets, I remember seeing someone somewhere saying something about Fintie's cases using weak magnets, weak enough to not affect the S Pen while keeping the auto wake feature but I can't find that post now. I don't care about the auto wake feature so if I can find a case without magnets at all that would be great too. I really want a case with a holder for the S Pen though. Not sure how easy is Amazon's returns if I'm outside of US (I'm in Malaysia).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] zugok:
Can you please post an image of the magnet locations? I suspect that any cover with magnets will have them located in the same place.

I have not seen any Tab S3 covers w/o magnets. Magnet damage is permanent, but there is a tool can can reset it, I forgot the name of it and it is usually very expensive (~$1000..?) I use the protective back case and the iPad 9.7 carry case.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] rav007:
You guys got me freaking out now. How long was it before the case affected or ruined the digitizer? I got my tablet a month ago and put a procase case on, it has 2 magnets on the edges of the case and then 2 directly above the screen above 1/3rd in from the left when in portrait mode. The magnets are around 2mm from the screen. I haven't noticed any issues yet though. Also everyone on Amazon UK seems to have rated the case really well, 97 reviews and its almost all 5 stars. I asked the question on the product page to see if anyone who has been using the case long term has seen any issues with the screen or pen accuracy.

Edit: I worked myself up to the point of digging out the 2 magnets that trigger the auto-sleep/wake (green circles in image). They were right above the screen and I considered these the highest risk so they were extracted.

There are 6 more magnets (red circles in image), in pairs, they aren't directly above the screen though they're on the edges of the tablet and used solely to hold the cover/flap down secure when it is closed. Do you think it is safe to leave these magnets in place?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] sireniankyle:
My 1st one did this, but I discovered that I only had dead spots when I had the front cover folded behind it. The magnets mess with the s-pen, because it operates off of wireless charging tech, which uses magnets.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] dbaric:
It seems the black variant of this one has Auto sleep function (at least according to the description on amazon page). So, I guess, has magnets as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Accessories] zugok:
Correct, visually the screen will be fine.

It relates to the Wacom digitizer that uses Electro Magnetic Resonance technology under the screen, and affects how well the s-pen works in certain locations.

Edge Effects

Hi all,

Are you guys experiencing weird behavior of the S-Pen (not being detected) around the top and bottom edges of the Tab S3? Kind of like the speaker's magnetic fields is affecting the calibration of the S-pen. Prominent with the soft stylus tip (black one).

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

along with the tablet, today because I've liked the Fintie case for my heavily-used T700. Hours and hours of daily use for over 3 years and it's just now making me think it needs replaced.

I'll share my thoughts on it in a few days.

You should take your tablet in for warranty. You obviously have a defective tablet. I have had the Tab S3 now for 14 months in a case with magnets with zero issues. I'm not even sure how magnets could affect a Super AMOLED display. Some TV AMOLED displays from LG are hung on the wall using magnets.

As far as I've read, magnets won't affect the screen. It can interfere with the S Pen function but not the screen.

I did take an old phone case with magnets and hold it behind the tablet and that causes the spen issue. I'm wondering if the polarity might have something to do with it.

[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micoeyes:
I hope you are aware of flashing custom recovery and rooting your phone. Once you did that it is easy to install it.

1. Download arise from official thread. (am using magnum opus version) Make sure you download non auroma version.

2. For starters inside zip there will be a folder called our modules. Copy any of the arise_customize.prop file from that and paste it in in internal storage root directory.

3. flash the ARISE zip from recovery and you are good to go.

4. Read arise_customize.prop file for further info of adding and removing modules.

Hello everyone! I'll try to explain things as much clear as possible, as I am quite new to this forum and topic.

I have successfully rooted my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus (Nougat 7.0) around a month ago, using TWRP, SuperSU and Odin obviously. Then due to personal reasons I decided to unroot it using SuperSU with an option of full unroot. I think it was done right, since no failures were shown, but during the reboot afterwards I met an issue I had during rooting the device too, which was bootloop of the brand and model of my phone (however I could get into TWRP recovery). I need to admit that I have made a backup of the system before rooting the device at the begining of the adventure, using TWRP. I have found a solution at this forum about fastbooting and decided to fully erase the system/cache/internal memory etc. to fastboot it and met the following issues:

- I probably didn't unlock my bootloader to fastboot the device and when I am trying to do that through fastboot (fastboot oem unlock) -> < waiting for device > (when typing fastboot devices, nothing happens)

- bootloop occurs all the time, so I have no idea what can I do about getting into modes

I have no OS literally now and left with just the Nandroid backup (copied onto my computer) so I can't even do anything with the usb debugging mode. Is there any solution to this problem? I would be more than thankful to any answers.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] solofrain:
I'm trying to choose between samsung s8+ and sony xz premium. Samsung is offering a very good discount, and the larger screen is a plus for me over xzp. But I had very very terrible experience with s5: response could take like 10+ seconds, and the battery life sucked. These two are the biggest concerns for me looking at s8+. I know phones generally performs well when they are out-of-box, and I'd like to hear from owners who have been using s8+ for a while: how is the experience regarding response time and battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] leeswagger:
I've had my S8+ for a while now, and the batterylife is beyond what I have ever tried on any other phone.. I have not yet been able to drain it on a single day.. Always above 45-50% when I end the day.. with 3-4 hours of SOT.

About the lag some people talk about, I will say (Though never owned a pixel) it's probably not AS smooth as the pixel with stock android, but I have not experienced any lag. I'm also using Package Disable to disable about 104 packages, which helps quite a bit as well :) I usually always have above 1GB of RAM free.

I hope this helped a little :)
