Metal trim - Galaxy S III General

Just a quick question. Just checked my s3 and have a large split by the volume buttons. And 2 smaller splits on the top and bottom left hand corners. Anyone else have these?

Would You Return This Unit?

Has anyone else had a scratch/nick on the bezel of their new Nexus 10?
Mine had a very small nick right out of the box.
Edit: I've now realized the back plastic piece will not stay in on one side, pictures are below.
Would you return it for another tablet?
I had one on my s2 top right hand corner =|

Quick solution for S-Notes Zoom Bug

If you have been annoyed by the zoom bug caused by placing your wrist on the bottom right quadrant of your screen as you write using S-Notes here is a simple solution.
1) Pinch the screen to resize to 100%.
2) Tap the screen once with your pen.
3) Start writing - zoom issue solved.

At what point do you put your hand on the tablet on your 3 step fix? After step 2?

Wouldnt it be saved as an image file rather than a note file? That means u cant re edit it? Am i right?

If you find the tablet zooming on you when you place your wrist on it simply lift your hand, pinch the zoom back to 100%, then without placing your hand down again simply tap the screen once with the tip of the pen. This should solve the zooming issue for that session. Afterwards just write normally.

I posted something similar to this. But all I do is before I start writing place the pen close the screen then rest my palm.

The single tap thing works better in that you don't need to keep worrying about it.

but if you tap the screen with you pen you actually write a dot, isn'it?
Yep. One dot. You only have to do it once.

[Q] something weird with the stylus

hi guys
i just bought samsung gakaxy note 3 N9000 (exynos version) 2 days ago and i noticed something weird with the stylus
there is a certain area of the screen (to the right exactly) that the stylus doesn't write properly i need to press hard on this area when i try to write or scroll and sometimes it doesn't write even if i pressed hard
any ideas what could be the problem??!!!
the finger touches work normally only the stylus
i tried to record it but all screen recorders require rooting and i don't want to root this phone now
i took a screen capture by "Screen Write " feature with the air command .... you can see clearly the area that has no Red lines in the right of the screen
thnx all
Looks like a defect

thank you for your answer :good:
the problem solved by removing the case
i read on another forum that some types of cases interfere with the magnetic field of the stylus
weird :silly::silly:
i removed the case and the stylus is working fine now all over the screen

Do you have a case with a magnet?
Regards,
Dave

ya the Problem was With the magnet in The Case
Sadly I had to cut throw the leather of The Case To remove the magnet
from inside
Better Than discarding the whole case
Thank you all for your answers :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Just to contribute.
I tested mine out. Smooth all the way left to right top to bottom. Effortlessly registered.

Any case with a magnetic latch causes this problem, happened to me in note 2 .that area of the screen is exactly where the flip cover magnet button is when the the case gets turned on itself

Rectangular smudge near the back button

Hi
I have an sm-n900...
I can see a rectangular smudge near the back button. It is almost the same dimensions as the back button but not completely coinciding with it. Its top edge is a little below the back button top edge.
If I clean with a cloth, it is not visible anymore. But once I start touching the back button, it becomes visible again.
Someone else seing this ? Is it some kinda sensor ? Seing it irritates me !!! Maybe coz I spend a lot of money on the phone.
Sent from my SM-N900 using xda app-developers app
capacitive sensor, it's on the menu button as well! can only be seen under special circumstances, but everyone has it! on my note2 it was a little more visible, till now I had 5 note3's and all of them looked equal to me in this regard (although other big differences, especially in screen quality)!

Hi
Well it cannot be seen for the menu button. But it is very much visible for the back button. And it becomes visible as soon as I touch it. Why should it be visible only for the back button...
Are you saying that it is visible on all the units ? Well let me see if I can get hold of another piece and see.
Sent from my SM-N900 using xda app-developers app
Huh? Hang on. *nicks magnifier* Yep, it's there.
Hi
What exactly are you talkin bout ?
Why is it that the same thing is not visible over the "menu" button ?
