Why not use just a vacuum cleaner from some distance and ofc plastic end? Should remove more than enough from the dust and I find it better solution vs removing the plastic grills.

Maybe you are right, i did not try it but it seems legit. Also take into consideration that not all of people have the equipment you mentioned, while removing the plastic grills is simple step needs just some care.

this is ok.. but i dont hzve the equipments,

It went smoothly for me. Thank you ?

Hmm. That's quite interesting to read.
I was hoping to tell what GPS chipset we are using in it, but I'm not sure it's in there.

That's great !
Thank you for posting this !!
I'm trying to disassemble my Galaxy Note but don't get it. How does the second step work? How to "disjoint the hooks"? Ive been trying serveral hours now but nothing happens except for that I am damaging the plastic "metallic look" frame.
Doesnt work neither with the standard plastic opening tools nor with a credit card. Would like to see pictures or a video on how to do that.
Thank you!

Don't try to disjoint from back, whole black and gray part in the back are just 1 part actually. try it from front. i mean seperate the gray part from the front screen.
Look at sammobile.com for the servicemanuals. It tells you how!

As I wrote above, I already have the Service Manual. However, it doesn't help, cause it only says disjoint it on different spots. There is no indication how to do that.
What do you mean by separating it from the front? Do you have a picture?
Thank you
hey guys I scratched my bezel, is it easy to replace the bezel, I am a non technical person, so is it a matter of just removing the 9 screws
Here is a good video on Youtube:
Great Info Bro!
Thanks for the posting!

Hello,
So i had removed the Back Cover of my Galaxy Note to check something and now the Speakers and Mic will not work, i never touched anything to do with Mic or the Speakers,
Can someone help me please!
Thanks!

Can't remove rear cover. It's really secure!

I am having a very hard time removing the rear cover. I've removed the two screws but I still can't seem to get any of my plastic case opening tool in. What gives? I'm almost questioning the importance of those two screws...

[Q] What is covering my front camera lens?

Hi everyone. Today, I noticed that something is covering my front camera lens.
Do you know what is that piece covering the camera? Anyone encounter this situation?
I didn't drop my phone not even once and I tried to smack the top of the phone to see if it moves, but no luck.
P.S. The camera is able to take pictures normally.
I have a SM-N9005.
Thanks
Go exchange it... Looks like a faulty device. It could be a piece of electrical tape in the wrong position.

Looks like some sort of cover for the camera.
Maybe this site can help understand: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung+Galaxy+Note+3+Teardown/19209
But i think @nicholaschum 's solution will work best.

Hey you were right. Soon as i posted my issue, i thought i would watch a dismantle video and presto! It was a round rubber like washer that has slipped from around the camera.
All sorted now
Hi....Can you let me know how did you get this fixed as I am also having the same issue....

I don't think they will consider to be a faulty device and change it, although I would like a new Note 3 :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
To me, it seems to be a soft plastic that keeps the front-camera in position and not to touch directly the front-panel (display assembly).
So, probably they will change/remove the soft plastic
GO to your provider an request a NEW device
Do this : Contact 1st Samsung Service in your country and tell to them the problem becouse this a factory fault phone .
After you make some papers and a proove that you contacted already the samsung Service from your country , contact your seller and show him the problem
YOU MUST proove that : you did NOT DROPED your PHONE , DID NOT SHOCKED YOUR PHONE with some other things , like drop with speed in bed trow in the pillow etc etc , proove that you did not used any screwdriver , to have ORANGE WATER SENSOR in the back under the battery STILL ORANGE and NO ROOTED PHONE .
THEY WILL CHANGE YOUR DEVICE , BECOUSE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX THAT IS A PART OF A PLASTIC THAT WAS SLIPPERED FROM HIS PLACE .

Rumor about the hole of the earpiece! Waterproof Rumor!

Browsing other Xperia Z2 forum, a user asked about the water resistance and input headset, since it has no external insulation, as covers. One reviewer said the author of the following topic:
"Check if you don't see a screen light in the hole, there were some not sealed examples problems.. it should be dark when the phone is unlocked. Would help to make sure it is sealed."
This actually makes sense?
I tested mine and when I turn on the device screen I can see light through the hole of the headset!
Has anyone tested to see if it makes sense?
I haven't heard about this, but for the screen gap issue Sony said you could take your phone to a repair center for a water resistance test, I'm sure they would do this for you if you are worried about it.
I see the light of the screen through the jack and I plunged my phone several times in the water, no problem.

Yes, regarding the gaps I'm aware, but I was worried that another rumor concerning the entry of the headset!

As I said though if you are worried about the headphone plug, they should be able to test that for water resistance as well.

Yeap, but the tricky thing is that I bought my device in another country! In my country is not yet released!
Have no guarantee of the device!

I can see the light too, no water has passed so far (at least nothing that effected the phone). Not sure if a straight way to the digitizer does any good.. Like is the digitizer waterproof?
This sounds strange but put the hole to your mouth and such on it like a straw then plug it with your tongue. If the suction stays then your good and waterproof.

I can also see light and phone is waterproof. And its not a hole, its just thin plastic leaking light through itself

I was very relieved! The people have to be careful with things that speak the internet! This sometimes ends up becoming epic proportions and great discomfort to the users of the device!
Actually I noticed that there is a thin plastic near the light!

No no, I have a gap between the speaker and the edge of the screen, and even another gap between the touchscreen and the edge, no problem.
Note that I have not tried to immerse the phone more than 30 cm deep

Would you take a picture?
I do not know if you saw, but it has a huge discussion about the water resistance of the device with those gaps!
If you can take pictures would help a lot! A macro photo of good resolution!

It does serve a purpose.
Make it easier to hold and reach bottom of the screen, and makes top and bottom the same size so it fits better/symmetrically in the VR headset.
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean there isn't a reason for it...

What are you talking about? Can you not see all of the electronics in that part? Packing a bunch of parts in the bottom chin allows us to have a large capacity battery and keep the phone thin.
Great video! Thanks for sharing. Looks like fixing damaged screens wont be too terrible.

No problem, also Incase for those of you who see ifixits disassembly on this phone, don't get worried about the screen separating from the digitizer during disassembly, they probably used too much heat and stuck their pry tool too deep and separated the digitizer from the screen or they just wanted to pull the digitizer off to completely disassemble it.

Kinda the same as why there isn't front facing speakers. Who would want the sound muffled to your ears and have the sound blaring into your eyeballs. This only my assumption.
