I recently lost my S Pen, and purchased (on red hot sale) a Wacom Feel Black stylus. It's a great pen! When the thing is directly perpendicular to the screen, it hits at exactly center. The only problem here is that the thing's sensory whatchamajiggit is up inside the pen just a little too far...

Hmm... I think I see what you're getting at. You're bugged that we're not using our Google Android devices the way that Google intended. Android, of course, was only created as an open project so that device makers could create their own Android-compatible OS's, and it is entirely inappropriate...

Huh... that liar. The guy at BB told me that the protector would be just fine and dandy after two hours, which is why I bailed after trying to use it for an hour. Oh well. At least it provided about an hour of amusement as my buddy and I attempted to rip or puncture the plastic with everything...

The guard was glossy, near as I can remember. I am indeed without the protector. Sent from my GT-N5110 using XDA Premium HD app

I hired the Geek Squad to install one of those InvisibleShield protectors from BestBuy when I got my Note 8, and had it on my tablet for about three hours. I took it off because it creates an incredible amount of friction with the S Pen's nub, making writing with the thing a fantastically...

I used Rom Toolbox, and it works fine. I doubt that the trouble that I'm having relates to the thing that I used to edit my build.prop file. To answer roustabout, I have not detected any difference when I change just one line as opposed to two. I have defeated the boot loop by not restarting...

I'm having an issue with the cool setup... whenever I go to install something, the tablet freezes and necessitates a reboot. This stops happening when I change the DPI back to default. Any ideas on how to make this stop happening? Thanks for your help so far :D Sent from my GT-N5110 using XDA...

I restored it successfully using Kies (not bad), and applied the dpi tweak. Holy cow, I see what you're saying. It feels like a functional tablet now, instead of a giant-sized phone! If only there were a better notes app (OneNote for Android with pen recognition, please?), this thing would be...

The app from the store is indeed the one that I was referring to. Hmm... I will try and do the build.prop edit again once this thing is done restoring. Hope it works, to be sure! It's just too bad that there's no way yet to go in and change a simple little file. I hope that we get a proper...

Samsung's support site doesn't seem to have the firmware available for download. The official help pages tell me to use Kies. I am updating it now, but would rather use Odin, of course. I'm doing a "firmware emergency recovery" with Kies. It was simple enough to start... now let's see how it...

I changed it, and restarted the device when the little prompt came up advising me that it might be a good idea. It's stuck at the boot animation now. Is there any way to un-upscrew it at the moment? edit- Holding down power and the down-volume button, I got to the "odin mode" screen. I'm going...

I like my Note 8! It's practically perfect for me, except for two big, glaring issues: While the hardware "home" button is great, the "menu" and "back" buttons below the screen eliminate the advantage gained by spending the extra $100 by making it impossibly frustrating to take notes in class...

Soft keys not working My home, menu, etc keys aren't working. Everything else is, but these buttons just don't. Any suggestions?

I have an HP TM2T tablet PC running Windows 7 that I got last November, and I gotta say that I use my Infuse for most of what I need a computer for now. For eBook reading I still default to my Kindle 3, just because, but for everything else from manga to Reddit to XDA to videos I find myself on...

Running the Infused ROM, on this screen, is rapture. I don't think I'll switch phones until the Infuse 2. I came from an iPhone 4, with a Nexus One before that, and neither can compare. All the GS2 would do for me is downsize my screen with no immediate performance benefit (because of Infused...
