My s pen broke inside the slot on my note 5, but I can't send it to Samsung because I use it heavily for managing work and home stuff. Fyi, the pen physically breaking inside my phone left the phone unusable. Only after removing service from the phone did it begin to function properly. Anyone know where I can get a s pen online?

If you call samsung support they can send you one im pretty sure. That seems to be the only solution at this point.
U lost me. So your pen broke inside the phone and that made your phone not work? Then u de activated the phone and it worked?
I guess to answer your question some stuff to ask is were u able to get the broken part out? Or is it stuck inside? If its out im sure samsung can send u a new one and u can use the phone while u wait on it. If its stuck in there what service do u use? Are u in the unites states? Give us some more info. I use sprint. They have repair centers that u can pop into and let them work on your phone.
Ebay has some oem s pens for the note 5 for around 20$

Thanks for the quick reply and situ for the confusion... I did manage to get the broken part of the s pen out of my phone. I am on sprint as well. Yes, my phone went to a flashing green screen until I deactivated it and went back to my note 2. Then I go back to get my 5 to box it up to send back to Samsung and, presto, it's fine. The s pen breaking inside it caused some weird conflict that I guess the phone couldn't handle. I consider myself pretty savvy with electronics, but I've never seem anything like this before.

I lost my spen and tried that call to SAMSUNG to see if they can send me a new spen. Unfortunately I was told that it does not fall under warranty. Was told to buy one on AMAZON, which I had to do and I'm waiting for. Prepare to fork over at least & $30+
Ebay has a lot of them....

Thanks all for the info and suggestions. I did look at those previously, but I wasn't sure about the authenticity of those products. I purchased an aftermarket spen for my note 2 and it failed to meet operational my standards.

I bought nexus s from craigslist and got ripped off... Someone sold me a phone without back battery cover. It came with a case and seller was in a hurry so I bought it by inspecting the software.
Can some one help me in buying a cheap case? Nfc is not a problem for me... I just want a 10-15 bucks battery cover...

Call Samsung support. They'll ask for imei and just tell then you broke your battery cover. Then say you heard they sold replacements. They'll check and then they'll sell it to you for $16. Took a little more than a week for me to get one.

Thanks man! you saved my life. Just called samsung support and had them send me the back cover for $16.23 with free 5-7 days shipping.
I also asked for the warranty on the product and they said that it was till March 2012. I also noticed that the screen has permanent impression of the virtual keyboard on it. First i thought that restoring to factoring settings will fix it but no... I still have the virtual keyboard impressions on the screen. I think it is the problem with the digitizer. They said that they will replace it for free. Now I am gonna have a cool phone once it comes back from Samsung.
Thanks a ton for showing me the way.
Anyhow, one more question, My phone is rooted and is running a custom rom on it, is it still under warranty? I am sure there should be a way to unlock the bootloader and return back to stock ROM, can you show me a thread please... I am gonna search also but I want to make sure I am doing it right before i do it... so that they don't deny me the warranty...
Thanks,
Edit/update: searched and found everything. Returned back to stock. It's so simple with nexus s! Thanks everyone who helped me

I have a vzw note 2 and am looking for a US company or website that is legit and has the samsung galaxy note 2 "smart dock" in stock. Anyone seen that lately? I called my local vzw retail store and they told me all they have are a couple of cases.
Thanks in advance.

I called up cdw as the 'availability' said to call. Rep told me it is on back order and has been for some time. They are anticipating getting some stock the 2nd week of March.
Is there a huge benefit from getting the samsung smart dock as opposed to getting something like the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Case Compatible HDMI Charging Dock which is only about 40 bucks?
Yeah I would like to know also what the benefit of getting the official Samsung dock versus a generic. And does anyone know how future proof this is? like will it work with the Note 3, 4, etc?

The smart dock has 3 USB ports that'll let you turn the Note 2 into a desktop pc.
Yeah but if you get a blue tooth keyboard and mouse you wouldn't really need the extra ports would you?

true but the idea is to use wired things plus external usb hard drives etc.

Also you can use a hard drive or flash drive to view files or movies on there. Also comes with an extra wall charger($40 value). Plus if you dont want to have to buy a bluetooth keyboard and mouse but have many wired keyboards and mice around why not? It'll be cheaper than having to purchase those along with the dock.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Be careful with some older wired mice though. Some people (including me) have noticed that connecting an old wired mouse turns the screen of the Note 2 off (a good thing) but drops the FPS on the monitor/TV significantly.
I am hoping to get my hands on one of the smart docks soon. I have found some on amazon, but the vendors there have the price so jacked up that I figure I am not going to buy from them. The way I see it is if Samsung can sell for $99, why pay $139-$160 for the exact same item. Doesn't make sense at all. Bestbuy is out of stock, and cdw as well, But the cheapest price I have seen is with cdw. Will keep my fingers crossed that one will make itself available within the next few weeks.
Signed,
*Eagerly waiting* - lol
When I called the very nice lady at CDW said they were getting some in at the end of February. That was a couple of weeks ago. I got one at Amazon for a little over $100 shipped instead.

Yes I spoke with a very nice lady as well. She told me that it should be around the 2nd week of March. I am hoping that to be the case as well. She also told me that I can go ahead and place my order now, and whenever the device is received, then it would be shipped, but I just don't want to lock into anything.
Do you remember the vendor you used when purchasing yours from amazon?

So I am having trouble finding replacement housing for my VZW Note 2. I have looked up and down, across every forum I could think of, and online on every retailer I could find and nothing has turned up. I have cracked the rim on my Note and would like to replace it. The problem is, I can't find replacements anywhere. I can find plenty of the white housings, but not the grey. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Go search ebay for "Note 2 oem frame" they are about 20 bux

Sprint one isn't work with verizon... Ad it does not have a sim card slot cut out.
Each version has a specific housing. You MUST purchase a Verizon one. Otherwise you could lose cell reception or damage the internals of the phone in some way. There are tiny little contact points for the radio antennas that are on the back frame. Each version has a different location for these antenna.

Edit I must have fat fingered the IMIE when doing this on my phone. I tried again using the numbers on the packaging and it is on the list. Looks like my handset was manufactured on 8/17/2016.
Mine came up as not on the list. I got my phone on 8/26/2016 so I'm being cautiously optimistic for the time being.

I'm curious to see if certain carriers are more affected than others. VZW here and not on list. Either way, now with the USCPSC involved all phones will have to be replaced so am not sure this checker is effective:
CPSC and Samsung are working cooperatively to formally announce an official recall of the devices, as soon as possible. CPSC is working quickly to determine whether a replacement Galaxy Note7 is an acceptable remedy for Samsung or their phone carriers to provide to consumers.*

So the CPSC has engineers that can tell of the phone is fixed? The new Notes were supposed to be available this week until they got involved. Big government doin it's thing...
T-Mobile here and confirmed on the list of effected phones. I am pretty sure I am just returning mine for a full refund and going back to my Note 5 for now. I got the free Gear Fit 2 which was the main reason I pre-ordered the phone. Now I can just return it and wait and see if they do another free promotion later to try and boost sales or maybe go with another device.
You get to keep whatever was free during original Note 7 promotion.

They actually send a tech out to replace the phone depending on whats wrong with it.
They normally will have you add a card on file for the $100 decutable then send you a new one and if youndont return the old one they charge you.
they automatically bill you after 2 months trial. why bother. I don't use it anyway.
Nah, I'm good with the much more affordable (and still high quality) Squaretrade.
