Is there somewhere an oldfashioned, sharp-tiped and accurate stylus available? I use D3 to do quite a lot of sketching (Autodesk Sketchbook) and so forth I am disappointed with styli I bought so forth... that fluffy blob cannot be mistaken for the TIP
Sadly you want the Samsung note, but it doesn't seem to have carrier support.

Good tip!
Maybe I want just S-Pen that comes with it...do you think it would work with Droid3 display?
If the stylus is capacitive, it should work.

I've been drooling over the Note for a couple weeks now. Almost 100% sure that the device contains a digitizer in the screen which means it's not your run of the mill capacitive stylus.

Are you sure? Why do you think so?
I believe the note works on the same principals of the htc flyer which uses a digitizer and then has apps written to specifically use it.

Actually, I am quite sad, i should have bought this instead of Droid 3...

Yeah, I was in that mindset too for a couple of weeks. Kept checking prices, looking at selling my Droid 3, how much that would cover the ETF and was looking at Straight Talk ($45/month). But now, I think I'm going to hold off at least until February/March. By then hopefully the Galaxy Nexus will be cheaper off-contract and I'll get one of them.
So anyone have a capacitative stylus recommendation?

All of the ones that I've seen have the rounded bubble tip which makes for extremely awkward writing.
on the internet, there are plenty of how-to´s on this subject - try them out, maybe you find somethig less awkward...

Simple yes or no to see what percentage of users have this problem. Please vote so that the data will be accurate.
No.

Vote guys. I want this to show an accurate percentage.
No defects at all I voted NO!
not sure how to vote. I guess yes, it's such a slight lift that if I didn't read about it here I wouldn't have even noticed. I'm planning to do the "fix"(remove back panel and tighten screws) to see if that takes care of it.

Yes, because everyone who hasn't got this "problem", is going to be trawling the net just to answer polls saying they haven't got a problem instead of enjoying their device.
Most who have got this "problem" wouldn't know they have this "problem" until they find threads like this telling them they have a "problem", even though their device is working perfectly.....
If you want the build quality of a £600 tablet then buy a £600 tablet.... This one is cheap as hell so the odd incredibly minor "problem", is to be expected.

I disagree. Basic quality control is key. Even for a $250 device.

I can't even use my tablet because the screen is so bad. This is no "minor problem" and even a $200 device should come working properly. If you don't agree with my poll, ignore it.
No issues here. I highly doubt 50% of the tablets have this issue though, poll seems flawed.

The poll is not flawed, it's inaccurate because only 40 people have voted. Once more votes are in, we should get a better idea of the accurate percentage.

And it's going back with RMA. Slight lifting on brand new device, what is it going to be in a year?
I've got the problem, but im going to wait a few months before I RMA it. Wait for a different batch.
Can someone tell me what I should be looking for? Any specific part of the screen? Any pictures?

Nexus 7 BT Keyboard is on sale for less than $20!! Just bought 2 myself!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Thin-Light-...es_Covers_Keyboard_Folios&hash=item1e7768db2d
It should show "eshop-best" keyboard for $19.49, FREE SHIPPING!!
If I didn't already have the Logitech bluetooth keyboard I would buy this in a second. Good find!
I bought this one on amazon a while back, and it is one of the best I have used. And it works nice as a case.

There are at least two massive threads about this keyboard already, it's NOT alumiium, it's plastic. Other than that most folk seem to like it.
New Version
If you have a look around you can find that there is new version of this keyboard which includes a TAB key just above the Q.

That's good to know. I wonder if the lettering is more permanent on newer versions. Mine have mostly rubbed off with use.

The amazon link I posted above has the tab key (at least mine came with it anyway) even though their picture does not show it and the lettering seems pretty good so far.

Bloody hell, Amazon doesn't deliver to my country and I cannot find this one on ebay/elsewhere for the similar price
Out of curiosity, has anyone had any luck performing key-remaps on this? I really like most of the layout, but having an ESC key would be nice aand I think an FN-TAB would work well there ... anyone else?
Enjoying my $18 version. Works great.

Never used a Nexus 4 so can't compare, I did however make the jump up from the HTC One X, a very powerful handset although highly underrated by the general public...
It was a good jump up, I am astounded constantly by my One, sometimes even just picking it up to hold it in my hands, not doing anything with it, just nice to hold it

I think it's a worth while upgrade, I don't believe that you'd regret it.
It might be a good idea to wait for a little bit until the first batches are gone and you can get a 2nd batch handset.
I've got no issues really with mine, it's a decent handset and I love it harder than any phone I've ever owned.
I think the fact that you're asking this in the 'One' threads is a bit hit & miss as we're probably more biased towards getting one than not but then again we can give you an accurate idea of what the handset is like... swings & roundabouts.

Pikey is as pikey does. If you can't afford the ride you're a spectator
It's well worth an upgrade. It's a step change in design and functionality.

Hey - I wanted to show off my latest 3D printed dock, this time for the nexus 10.
I borrowed the design ideas from what I saw posed on here and tried to build off of it.
I think the one unique thing about it is that it is made of glazed ceramic instead of that usual plastic. It is very study and has some nice heft, while keeping 3D printing costs down.
I designed it to be able to keep the nexus docked while in my folio case, since I will snatch it off the stand before heading out the door. However, this will dock with or without the case. (FYI this is my case: http://www.roocase.com/Slim-Fit-Veg...--Black-rooCASE/cat-p/c1000036/p10518806.html)
It is designed for the standard POGO magnetic cable.
I just wanted to get thoughts on this if anyone would be interested in one or what questions you might have about it.
I finally got together my shapeways site where you can order the dock if you're interested.
Let me know what you think, or feel free to post in the thread, thanks!
http://shpws.me/rY5i
Thanks again to everyone in this forum for the great ideas!
I guess no one, huh?
I am a little late to the dock party...

Agree. Unfortunate really...and surprising. I've had 3 of these in my family and none had any issues whatsoever. They are all in use and still running pretty darn good! I've compared to newer tablets but this really is still a great tablet. Not sure why this forum is so dead.

That's probably the reason, no issues = no reason to search for a forum to find fixes.

Hey! Sorry for the delay, I've been pretty busy with work.
I finally got around to setting up the storefront through Shapeways, and have a link to the stand you can buy directly from there:
http://shpws.me/rY5i
I only selected options for the ceramic material, since plastics would have sent the price over $100.
Let me know what you guys think and if anyone really wants to be a baller and get it made in plastic, I'll add in those options, so just let me know.
I have a just one other tip: I sanded the plastic housing of the POGO cable down just a bit with some sand paper and put a piece of electrical tape on it so when I wedge it in, it stays put on docking and undocking.
Let me know if you guys have any other questions.
thanks!
So I got my Note 4 today. I love it, but im note sure if am being picky or if my issue is warranted.
Opened Note, and not sure if im the only one. But I have a crack at top of phone. Real small but noticeable if you look at top.
Should I have them send a new one?

I sent my Wife's white Note 4 back (they let us keep it till the new arrives) The glass had a swirl in it that happens in the manufacturing process. I expect perfection from a new phone.
I would send it back.
They are one day shipping a new one. Love Tmo, thx xda. Btw this phone is amazing
I cant wait to devs enable more apps for private mode. This fingerprint scanner works. Plain and simple.

Don't see it either. Are you talking about that Squarish thing in between the antenna bands? If so that is normal, both my uncle and my note have them.
