[Q] Wireless Back Cover; T889 and n7100 - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a T-Mobile T889 Note 2. My girlfriend has a Verizon s3, and when she purchased it she also bought a wireless back cover that was identical to the original, but it would let you set it on a charging pillow or stand. I see the same item out there for the Note 2, but they all say for the n7100. Will a n7100 back wireless charging cover work on my T889?
One of the reasons I like my girlfriends cover is because both the the Note 2 and s3 are an awesome looking phones, and I don't like covering them up with bulky cases. I noticed when she put her wireless back cover on, it gave her s3 a heftier feel and it felt better and more solid in my hand. That's kind of what I'm looking for if this n7100 back will work for me. Thanks.

There are a couple of ongoing threads for wireless charging on the Note 2, over in the Original Development section. I suggest reading them.

Induction charging with slim battery covers?

So, I'll be heading out to Verizon shortly to trade in my T-mobile HTC amaze for an S3. The development community behind the S3 is HUGE!! :laugh:
In any case... I'd like to get the induction charging (as I've found with past phones, after about a year the micro-usb port can start to get shoddy). It seems the new cover issue has been solved (thanks flashcity90) for case fitment, but I'm curious if slim covers would inhibit the charging. I know induction chargers have only recently came out... but haven't been able to find any reviews or comments on this.
Something like one of these, that has been reviewed here in the forums:

[Q] Lanyard Hole?

I haven't seen it mentioned in the specs or reviews. Does anyone know if the Note II has a hole for a lanyard? TBH that's one of the reasons I didn't go for the original Note over my SII.

I thought i needed one for the gnote1, so i tied a loop onto the speaker grill, worked real well. after a few weeks, there was no need for extra grip or the loop so i removed it... I would put put it back on if i go boating or something... its really quick and easy to use braided fishing line, unbreakable and nice and soft so wont eat into the plastic.

Samsung Official Wireless Charging?

a family member gifted me with the wireless receiver module for my note 2. I know the Sprint version has the wireless charging tabs covered, but would it work if I bought the frame housing from the AT&T version on eBay? From the pictures it looks like a simple swap and I'd like to have wireless charging if I can and the cost of the frame housing is only 10 bucks.
From my understanding the pins are there and you need to mod the mid plate or use a att one, and add a receiver to connect to the pins.
I'm pretty sure you need to use the sprint casing and put holes in it. I don't think the att case works due to very small differences in the phone design. The l900 case is compatible with the Verizon case and the att with T-Mobile I don't believe sprint is with att

S-Pen Stylus with Stylus Holder

Question for those of you who had the original Galaxy note n7000 or i717, but also know what the 10.1 s-pen "feels" like...
I recently purchased an "S-pen Holder" off of eBay for use with my Note 10.1 (n8000), though the s-pen that comes with it is intended for the Original Galaxy Note (n7000).
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S-Pen-Stylus-Holder/dp/B0076Z3GMG
I thought that while the note devices had undergone improvements, the actual s-pens were functionally the same, so I figured I would be nice to have a more pen-like s-pen. The s-pen that fits in the holder does function, but it is definitely NOT the same. While the pen holder is very very nice, the actual S-pen that fits inside of it is absolute crap compared to the one that comes with the note 10.1. The tip is very hard, and does not have the "gumminess" that allows the pen to lay down that nice real pressure sensitive line.
So my question is, does anyone know if they ever make a less crummy pen for the n7000? Is there one available with has more of that modern Galaxy note feel to it? Or, is there a decent aftermarket pen with the same form factor?
I want to keep this fantastic holder, but I will not be able to use this s-pen. The problem is that the case only fits the pen in the shape made for the n7000 and i1717. I already asked the same question on the forums for those devices, which are ghost towns.
Any input would be great.

Non magnetic Tab S2 case for Tab S3?

Hey guys
So I haven't found a non magnetic case for the Tab S3, the only one I've found is this one for the Tab S2. So I was wondering, other than the camera hole which does not fit the flash (and honestly I don't remember using the flash on my old 8.4 Tab Pro, so I'm good having it covered) , will this fit the Tab S3?
I've bought this other one in black but as nice it looks and feels, the 6 magnets that are everywhere are interfering the SPen function, so it's going back.
Thanks for any help
UPDATE 01/29/19: Never mind, I found the proper version of this case for the S3 HERE . Will review it and test for magnets once I have it.
