1. Buy a cover. This prevents lens making contact with anything you lay phone down on.
2. Never put mob in pocket with coins, keys or any other hard objects.
3. use your Common sense.

I flashed no scratch last week and although it hasn't removed the old scratches it definitely works in preventing new scratches in conjunction with learning to look after my phone

just like my previous phone i use a valenta leather pouch (dont buy a cheap one they [email protected]#k ) to put my phone in ,it gives great protection .(camera and screen
if you want the phone stil a bit tighter in the pouch you can buy a alu backcover with samsung galaxy s3 written on the back( ebay england just a few pounds )

Its a rom you need to flash with mobile odin, it tries to remove scratches but only the light ones. You need to root first offcourse

There are several "wipe" functions, but I would research them extensively before using any. You might accidently remove scratches from your screen instead of your camera.
On a serious note. DO NOT MESS WITH RECOVERY.

Blue Mark on screen ends.

Does everyone get a blue Mark on top and bottom of screen when scrolling reaches the end? I asked at Samsung store and they told us normal and all note's have it.

Lol....infact many of my friends who are Apple fan boys got a point to put my note 2 down die to this feature. I think it's not required.

U would think a simple ui thing like this would be appreciated by iPhone users. In any case, let them talk smack, they're just jealous if the only thing they can find fault with is a handy little ui feature.

Its also a way around another of those Apple patents...

I'm sorry but can you explain more specifically? I mean is the mark all along the top ( a whole line of blue mark at the top) or just like a dot?
Thanks

Removable back piece?

Does anyone have any idea where the top part of the back plate is removable? Seems a little weird as there isn't anything under it.
My only thoughts are that it could be a place to store the SIM if they bring out a 3G version, or its for some sort of official case which would clip into this

its for the case to attach on dude

Phone vibrating when grabbing it?

For some reason my s4 vibrates when I pick it up off of a table sometimes. It's not the volume button because the volume is still at full sound when I go to check it.
Just wanted to know if anybody else is experiencing this.

Do you have any missed calls or texts when this happens? If so you probably have smart alert on.. It vibrates when you have a missed call or text when you pick the phone so you know to check it

I think that's EXACTLY what it was. Good catch. I guess I haven't explored the extra options enough yet.
Doesn't help that I've been waiting for some AOKP love. Made me not want to get too comfortable with TW. Thank you!

Task had an S4 but he said he was returning it so idk if we'll get Tasks on the S4. Which kind of kills it for me cuz I ran his ROM on my S3 religiously. There was NO comparison.
