My adonit jot stylus works wonderfully for me. I can make very detail hand written notes. Here is a sample.

I have a friend who's got a TF and he's interested in the stylus. I let him borrow mine and for some damn reason half of the screen at random places won't respond. At first, we thought it was his screen, so I let him use my TF. Same thing. So, I used the stylus with his TF and it works wonderfully.
I know the capacitive touchscreen responds to a person's electrostatic charge. Does this mean this guy's electrostatic charge is weak?
Very interesting thread it has been proposed that different people have a different charge or a greater or lesser capacity for storing or discharging that energy. There is even a video on youtube of a Buddhist monk who can channel hes electro static capacity to such an extend he can cook a fish with a metal bar and hes two hands connected at each end :O
I think its very possible that your friend could have a weak charge. You could try measure the electro static charge you both have i think they did it on myth busters or something one time when i was watching discovery channel and found one person had more electro static potential then the other.
That is... really interesting. Could be a conductivity thing, maybe your skin is more moist and conducts better than your friend?
i think the show was Stan Lee's Super Humans. Some guy in India could conduct electricity through his body without getting zapped. He found out when he tried to kill himself and it didn't work, lol.
I found that a carrot stick works well a stylus.
I suggest you to replace your freind with another one who has better elctrostatic field energy man..

But this guy is so hot and a fellow geek... hard to find them in such a package... lol
Tell him to eat more fiber and drink more water. That will help flush the toxins out of his body allowing his energy to flow more naturally.
He has to keep his palm off the screen while writing with the pen
On the screen

Hi guys,
I'm having this problem and I would like to know if it's happening to someone else. There are certain parts of the battery cover that will click and crack when pressed. They're basically the phone's "temples" (the top part of the phone's sides) and the area around the headphone jack, as shown on this pic:

It's pretty irritating, since that's basically the area I use to grab the phone and get it out of its case. Do you get it too?
I don't have this problem. But I expect people will get the same problem if they open the battery cover too many times. You can try calling HTC to see if you can buy a battery cover from them.
mine does it. Didn't at first, now it does. No big deal.
Thanks for your replies guys, glad to know that at least one more person has this problem too
Rvinny, have you ever dropped your phone? I have, and fear both things might be related.
I've dropped it like four times now and mine doesn't creak. I am probably the pickiest person in the world too, but I have to say... the build quality on this phone is pretty solid... its just too bad they used the worst speakers ive ever heard in a mobile phone before. Bet the speakers on the desire will be good though ... bastards...
mine clicks in the same spots.
i've been thinking about getting a replacement battery cover.
easy fix - put a miniscule amount of electrical tape right under each of the corner tabs on the battery cover to use as a padding/buffer. result - solid feeling phone, no more flex.

Yes, it is unfortunate, but a lot of the manufacturers are using chromed plastic now a days. This is the second one I have seen with an issue of having the chrome come off. Not really too bad considering the number sold, but I know, bad if it happens to you. Get a replacement and happy Thriving.
I saw a post on Toshiba's site where a guy had bought two Toshiba-branded screen protectors for his Thrive. Well he went to remove one and it left the entire screen covered in a sticky, adhesive mess. Seems they can't even get those right either, let alone the dysfunctional device it's supposed to be protecting.
I can't divorce this company fast enough.

Do you actually own a Thrive? All I see you doing is flaming the unit and Toshiba. Im not defending them if they wronged you more power to you... but I feel skeptical. Im just sayin...

Well seems like someone still sees something they like, sleep of death and wake issues were fixed, we have some custom roms, and netflix...sounds like a good day to me.
Hey!!
I had a free day from school, so I planned to make it productive. So I made this really nice phone dock for the galaxy 3. I wouldn't call it a "dock" cause that does more stuff like charging, increasing the loudness etc. Just a stand to keep the phone in an upright position.
I made it out of a pizza carton. I could have also made a charging cable input (or sth like) but due to the phone's design it was not possible. But still does the work!
Here are some pics -

Looks ehm... very DIY
Nice and creative though, maybe you could spraypaint it black or somthing like that (just a suggestion)
Very creative . I agree to spray paint it a colour, black or white would be nice

Yeah I know, its something not to flaunt over, but i posted it so cause their wasn't one for our phone. I made two before this and both of them fail cause of the weight of the phone
I have to admire your commitment to G3! lol. this is very... special
great work mate! looks really DOable.....
Gr8 man.....guess u really love that g3 of yours....
If i had a day off from school i would have probably wasted it by sleeping the whole day..
LOLZ! Cool, and btw, I made one before
Now that you have your model ready go for a stainless steel version, Or plexi glass would rock.
Did this a while ago. You can tell I trained in networking when you see what I made it out of...
Also works for my Galaxy S2... however I need to put it upside down if I want to plug it in...

for anyone that has the flip top type case for their phone you can make that into a stand for the phone too.
just bend the lid the opposite way and use the magnetic closing flap to lock it into place, as shown in pic.

The tablet was soaked after being in a bag with a leaky bottle. This happend a few months ago and I just had time to take a look at it.
The screen is just white. I can connect it to a TV using HDMI and the touch screen works to operate it. Bluetooth keyboard/mouse, GPS and WiFi work too. Battery chargers and holds a normal charge. Any ideas what would need to be replaced to fix this?
I guess I can sell it to someone who has a broken touch screen or something, or use it as a tv box, but I don't really have a use for that.
Thanks

Very similar thing happened to me yesterday, can of drink burst in my bag (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1805971) im gonna say your screen is broken if you cant see anything onscreen, im slowly but surely fixing my screen by sitting the tablet under a 40w lightbulb about 10-15 cm away
My only question is why would you take so long to check it out?

All, just FYI.. I was talking with datagutt and he mentioned that he needed to send back his controller due to a sharp edge on the metal face plate cutting into the left joystick. I took a look at mine and its doing the same thing his was and I hardly use the controller (i'm in adb most of the time!). I would advise to sand down or otherwise blunt the sharp edge before the cut gets too deep if this is happening to you.
This is mine after hardly any use.

edit: thank datagutt I would never had looked at mine until he said something...
Thanks for the heads up!!
I will report back once i get my new controller.
I took a look at my joysticks and the same exact thing is happening! It's on both joysticks but much more pronounced on the left which makes sense because it gets used more. What would be the ideal way to smoothen the joysticks cradle?

I've taken a look at both of my controllers as well and exactly the same only 1 day usage... I've actually taken the magnetic covers off and used them to cut down on wear and tear however.... After about 30 minutes playing Shadow gun, its starts wearing down the underside of the stick :S either way its going to destroy them. But you can order new ones which at least is a work around as they can be replaced. Saw a video on YouTube about a controller stick mod.
Ideally what they would have been better with was a small aluminium ring just under the rim so its metal on metal and not so much wear and tear.
Not a big deal, but the quality is an issue for sure. Take note Ouya for controller MkII

Hopefully this isn't the case with all controllers. Would suck. Although I doubt it would get too deep.

I don't see this as a big deal its not like you can saw the stick in two.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I've checked mine and also is visible the mark. I hope that the movement stick is limited before by the own mechanmism than the metallic ring, and do not saw the stick...
It is the same on My Controller and it seems to be a production failure that occurs on every controller.
It's just sloppy crafted.
I took some 400K Sandpaper and deburred it myself. I also took the pad apart and applied some Grease on the triggers. So that they feel a lot smoother and the "grinding-noise" stopped.
At first touch the gamepad feels realy good, but if you take a closer look it's just poor craftsmanship.
Is the plastic part massive or hollow where this happens?
