Since a picture is worth a thousand words, the picture below will explain most of my problem. I'm wondering if any other IS users out there have dirt in the same area pointed in the image? You can only see 3 particles, but in person the whole line between the 2 parts is filled with dirt or something.
If anyone else has had this, did you find a way to clean it? I've tried a needle but even that is too big to get in there. I know it's not much, but whenever I see it, it brings out the OCD in me.
Thanks for any help!

Try with paper, a simple A4 might do the trick since you can bend it and stuff... Usually works for me.

Sorry, I tried it and as much as the thickness is perfect, it wasn't rigid enough to be able to pick out the dirt. So not much improvement
Try a manual air pump brush. Watchmakers use it. Just google the picture of it, you will know what I am talking about.
But watch out, they are small but can provide pressure which can break microphones and speakers if you pump em directly.

Thats one way of doing it. And much Cheaper.
Like the NC isn't heavy enough for reading. Good job though.
Lifehacker had an atricle about using book binding materials to make an Ipad case. It would be neat to make one.
I've always wanted to hollow out a book for something - just thought it would be kinda fun. Looks like you did a good job. Only thing to be concerned for is dropping the "book" and having the NC come flying out.
Putting my Nook in a book would ruin part of the benefit of using a Nook for me: I don't have to hold something open to be able to read; I can just lay it down and be done with it. This is definitely cool, but for me, if I have to hold it open it's not worth it.
Peter
looks heavy, I saw a guy do the same, but remove all the pages and cut material to replace the book binding and make it look more smooth, I gotta try it too, thanks for all the ideas
looks good though, noone would look at it twice...lol
great way to hide it
Looks like it would be heavy, and a lot of work..
You missed an opportunity to do this with a Sarah Palin book.
This is going to be very useful in prison....but how will you get the NC into the pen in the first place?
(Edit: I noticed that you can't view the picture or the post within the xda app. Sorry about that.)
So.. I'm hoping someone who is familiar with the hardware in these phones stumbles upon this, maybe Adam Outler?
I've had problems with my external speaker. I went through all the fixes until I finally found this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15648897&postcount=19
This was the only permanent one for me. After I did that, it was working great for a few months. I like to use my phone to play music through the external speaker, and it worked like a charm. Then I noticed the problem starting to come back, so I figured that through use that the connection needed to be lifted again..

I lifted too high on this connection, and basically broke it in half. I have both parts of it, and I'm wondering if any of you guys may be able to brainstorm a way to salvage this. At the moment I'm thinking maybe solder? (I grabbed electrical tape, but I don't think that's going to cut it lol) I haven't soldered before though, but I'm pretty sure my brother has all of the soldering tools.
Thanks for your time guys.
Kinda crazy..
It's working with electrical tape. We'll see how long that lasts.
I just put a tiny piece in between the two parts to give it the space I was originally after, and then an additional piece over the top to hold it in. The speaker assembly sits over it and gives it more pressure, so that helps I think.
However, I'm still very interested to see what you guys think.
Update/ bump:
It's cut out once, but otherwise it seems to be working. I don't know what type of metal is used in that connection, or if it's something that can be soldered or not.
Probable copper

Just though I would post a really nice mount that works well with the Note II from any carrier as well as nearly any other phone, Happen to come across this while looking for Christmas present ideas and picked one up for myself and love it so far.
It uses a nice small metal plate that you can put in the back of a case or even a smaller round one that fits perfectly between the back cover and the battery/housing then holds the phone securely without any bulky snap in annoying part. Here's an URL (since I can't post links just yet) to the page for it as well if you want one which I really recommend since its only like $30 and way better than those cheap ones you can find at Walmart or anything you would find for more.
"amazon.com/gp/product/images/B008IOQ3K6/ref=dp_image_z_0?ie=UTF8&n=2335752011&s=wireless"
Let me know what you guys think. Hope this helps some searching for some of you!
Here's some photos of it for a quick glance.

THis has been posted before. The problem with this is that its magnetic and will at least while in use cause your spen and compass to not work. Not sure about long term effects , but samsung warns against magnets.
Iphone SUX
I havent see it effect anything while using the gps at this point. Still trlls me where im going and where im at but ill up date if something changes.
And k.0.0.l iphones do sux but why they still post them in photos of stuff I could not say why.

I posted this earlier in another thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1973792
It really is the best universal mount. It does NOT affect the compass because our device uses GPS. It only affects the s-pen if the magnet is close enough to the tip (probably not close enough if using a case).
This post was supposed to be more of an advice on how to paint the car after getting hit. I was hit by my impatient roommate two days ago in our driveway and I went to get an estimate on the damage and was quoted $250. There are no dents and the scratches don't seem that bad so $250 seemed like a lot of money for what the issue is. I was just wondering if anyone knew what it SHOULD cost to fix this?

You should color it in the XDA color scheme, with a huge XDA logo on both doors.

$250 for a body shop to to do a blend paint service isnt that bad.

It really isn't that hard to DIY a job like that yourself. I've painted many cars myself. All you really need is the right colour, and a spray gun, which is not that hard to borrow. For a small section like that you don't need a spray booth, though you may want a dropsheet for your driveway/shed floor.
Made this for the safe keeping of my 8T. I was using a Gordy's leather strap, but my 6mo puppy ate it. *facepalm*

You want a multistrand braid tether attachment.
Monofilament nylon fails with little or no warning.
I used 500lb nylon. Do you think that will work? I definitely want it strong, so looking for opinions here.

Obviously that's not able to hold 500#.
The problem is the monofilament, it's all or nothing. Multistrand usually shows signs of abrasion and impending failure.
Clear nylon is also UV sensitive and doesn't weather well in dry environments.
You want a tether preferably that has no metal rings or such that can scratch the phone. Most phone cases lack good attachment points or accommodate only ridiculously thin tethers. I want at least a 50# tensile strength. First time it gets snagged on something you'll know why...
The weakest link theory applies very much to tethers.
I wear BDU cargo pants so I just use a good case and the thigh pocket. This works well even with large phones and they don't drop out but are still easily accessible.
You'll need to put some thought and searching into this to find the best solution for you.
Thanks for the assist. This strap is mostly to get me through until my new Gordy's arrives. His straps are built like tanks.
