I don't know the solution (never needed it) but i remember seeing posts with tips when i registered last year. You must make a more extensive search

I put a piece of scotch tape around mine and I've had no problems since I did that. One wrap around was enough to keep it snug - right in the middle of the stylus.

I've been having this problem,and just tried this solution. Give me a day and I'll tell you how it works out


Edit:

Well, it's been a day, and the stylus is being held in there better than ever. Definitely a recommended fix if you are having this problem

yeah, i find that the scotch tape trick works perfect. i put it right around the "neck" of the stylus - that would be nearest to the gray head part.

I've read on a website, don't have any link anymore, that if you will turn your mobile on the back, and remove your battery, there will be 2 openings where you can see some steel. If you take some sort of pen, or mini-screwdriver you can push against it, and when it clicks, your stylus must be a little tighter in his case. Didn't test it, because i lost my stylus because of the same problem :D

I bought some sticky tack (you can get it at office supply stores) and placed a small amount in the channel. That seems to hold my stylus in with no problems.

Tape option is the best. I lost two stylus due to falling stylus and this time I put a small amount of tape on the outer edge and its perfectly fit in the phone. No more falling stylus.

I opened the phone, added a drop of hot-glue behind the little plastic pin and it holds the stylis like it was new.

The same trick I also applied to my universal, only there I added a bit to much, and the stylus now doesn't come out easily, so I need to use a little more force.
