Popsocket and Samsung Pay - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Was curious if anybody had any luck with Samsung pay or other NFC devices while utilizing a popsocket on the back of their phone.

Yeah I've used them together. I put it about 2/3 of the way down in the center and it was fine. Just don't put it towards the top .

The tab 10.1 covers the entire usable screen and cut for ebb the camera, but not the sensor.
That's suitable for me for now, but only if the pen works.
I guess no one has tried, ill be doing it this weekend and report back.
I went to get it put on day before yesterday. They didn't have any for the Note yet, so they "custom cut" one and put it on. It's for an iPad, so it has a big hole where the iPad button is and a small one where the iPad camera (?) is. Otherwise, it's fine. They'll swap it out for free when they get a Note one in.
I like it better with the stylus than the naked screen. I have GA on my phone, too, so I actually compared "writing" on my phone (with GA) to the bare Note screen before I got the GA. I liked it better then, so it's not just a case of liking it now because I spent money on it.

"Super" Spen

Hi guys.
Ive heard and seen that there is a smart Spen in Korea that also acts as a bluetooth caller. Supposedly its only available in Korea. Id love to get hold of one. Anybody seen it for sale?
I managed to get a different Spen recently with a rubber on the back end too

Ebay: In the first link. I recently emailed Clove Technology regarding them selling this and I'm awaiting a response. Looks like an excellent piece of kit

Ill definitely be buying that. Price point is steep but definitely worth it for such a versatile stylus

You got one with rubber on the back? Is it an actual Pen?
Its the same as the original Wacom Tablet Styli. Its the Standard S-Pen the only differences are that its the same size as a real pen, has a hook for shirt pockets and has a plastic but on tge end that acts as an on screen eraser. I got it from someone from Samsung. Seen it on Ebay though.

It's just the spen from the note 10.1

Camera problem, fixed the hardware, now it's not focusing

So my camera broke. It was just the outside of the part, and the pictures didn't show a crack, but I still wanted to get it fixed. It turned out to be 50$ from one of the mall cell phone repair shops. Anyways he fixed it, but now my camera won't focus now. It tries, but then the thing goes red. Is this something he possibly did? Could it also be the rom I am now now? Like a bug?
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Joe
I would think you got a defective camera if it's not working. Not too many things that I know of that would cause that issue if it was working fine before you replaced it unless you didn't make sure it was hooked up firmly.
Sounds defective. My friends did that. I ended up ordering the replacement camera for $20 on ebay. Next time consider replacing it yourself. It's very easy.

I might just see if I can get money back and do it myself if they don't cooperate, but how would I do this? What part would I need and what tools?

You'll need:
* Phillips #00 screw driver (I bought husky set at home depot for $5)
*guitar pick or plastic opening tool. Can also be bought on eBay.
Those are the tools I use.

I didn't follow a guide but watch this video. Its about how to take it apart. You'll have to only do the motherboard disconnection which is very simple

Phone fell 3 and half floors onto solid concrete

Its almost completely fine, there is a tiny scuff on one corner (amazingly) anyway I was just asking in case there's anything I should worry about. The phone appears to be OK and has been used since then and is typing this, but I'm worried about any damage happening inside the phone or any damage to the battery. Will my phone be OK? Thanks

It's pure luck that your phone survived such fall. I think you should bring it to store and check.

Pure luck and a case. What store do you mean? I have bought the phone from Google play and am not in any form of contract.

Any local store that has the expertise.
I live in a country with lots of local store that can fix, replace broken phones so that might not apply to your case sadly

I'm currently a uni student in aber wales. Its a very small town with not much here plus I have very little spare money. I think I'll have to wait till I go home where there are as you say lots of phone fixing stores.

The ringke fusion case. I have no idea how it managed to save the phone as it isn't particularly big or bulky, but it did .

To save it from scuffs just get a case for it.

Reminds me of the time I was out on my mountain biking and got cold hands so pulled my gloves out , at the same time my phone also came out.
Hit the concrete did at least 30 flips and slid across the floor 10 to 20 feet.
I walked over to it expecting the worst. There wasn't a single scratch on it . The case had stood up proudly.( cheap one )
Then I read on this forum that folks have smashed the back glass just by putting it in there jeans pocket.
Seems like some devices maybe have a better build quality then others.
We must be the lucky ones.
Also from the U.K maybe they ship better phones here . Ha ha
Phone : Nexus 4 /Rom : cataclysm / Kernel : Stock.

Lg customer service

So after hours on the phone getting the run around I could not find a rep that had any idea what the LG G2 Quick Window cover was, and then they tried to tell me it was out if warranty even though the device and accessories haven't even been out for six months. Heck one didn't even know what the G2 was! Is there an advanced support number anyone knows of? They literally have the least knowledge techs I've talked to.

Its a phone that has a little window that shows a small spot on your screen. Wouldnt recommend it because it does not protect your phone. I do work for sprint
