Hi every one, here on xda for g pad, we, or almost 70-80% of us, maybe not, haven't discovered the way how the smart case works, or its place, today, i found the spot where's the magnet lands, after a heavy usage of the smart case, the leather-like, or fake leather that's textured into the internal face of the case, has been swatted out with my fingers and my thumb, so, you are about to have the knowledge to use a magnet and test it in your ROM without a case, actually, let's get started!

What are you looking at, is the magnet in the left, its placed right there, so you're informed about it, and what placed in the right is the G Pad v500, in portrait mode, the magnet is located at the middle of the portrait bezel in the left, good to know...
Press thanks if you like, if you're happy now, comment in!

I bought a rhinoskin a while ago, but just didnt like the size of the thumb opening. Also, the small slit over the screen didnt allow you to see the all the important info.
This is what it was like.

However, like I said, didn't like the buttons. So I brought out my trusty dremmel and started making a mess.
Once a little wet sanding was conducted afterward, I decided I needed to dry it off, quick. So what better than to put it in the oven. However, I forgot it was in there. By the time I got it out, the neoprene foam was sitting on the bottom of the oven.
No real problem, it was still sticky, so I got some foam at a hobby store, and cut it to size, making just enough space for my WIFI card. Then only a little paint and clear coat, and you get what you see below.
If I use the standard leather case that comes with Athena then this little call info screen that tells us who is calling (when Athena is close) is useless.....isn't it?

If I don't use this leather case then there is 50% chance that I will drop the screen from the key board...Its risky...
Is there any other way that we can use this little call info screen while having the leather case on Athena?
Thanks in advance.
The only way I can see this as being possible is if you use an extremely sharp knife (scalpel blade) to cut out a panel on the case. You would then need to re-stitch the edges (or get a good tailor/tailoress to 'finish' it for you).
It's possible, but I'd try it with a cheap replacement case first (of which I have yet to see any available).

Pretty cool if I have to say so myself. So... who is willing to tear down this phone?

I have reasons to believe that the Venue Pro has something magnetic in it. Don't you see the hanging ring?
Ahh, now I get it. I thought that was some carry-loop or something, was hard to tell. Could be the digital compass or something?
I'm fairly certain that the magnet is used to secure the slider for the screen.
when i set my DVP down the other day it picked up my wife's earring. my first thought was that maybe the spinning vibration mechanism inside is magnetic.
better keep my phone away from my 3 1/2" floppy disk collection!
Here's mine

What setting do you use? Why?
I have a skin condition on the complete undersides of my hands (I believe it's called dermatitis or eczema) that causes them to be abnormally dry and peel thick layers off, almost 100% of the time.
Capacitive touch screens usually aren't sensitive enough for the weak current that passes through the tips of my fingers, but this setting, even with a screen protector, will detect one of my digits even if I hold it mere nanometers above the screen.
I also hated the jumpyness of swiping between homescreens due to 10 pixel movement detection. Bleh.
P.S. Did anybody else's Tapatalk favorites break recently? Mine just did.
Error message "forum closed" appeared.
Little appreciation to Lg designer, they deliberately put the switches little lower side for design continuity. I measure the case button position & they are exactly on v60 from bottom to button position.
They did this so user memory mussel won't get confuse.
On this gap

this is where 3rd mic seated. When i 1st get my DS i was upset they didn't keep a hole in their like cheap case/cove.
But when i saw the button position i discover this also. They did this way because the person who hold the phone during video recording will get much clear voice.
Just bought one of these for $280 open box brand new. This is surreal at this price. I guess people are worried about software updates but for the money who cares lol. What a freak in nice phone!
