I'm really interested to know if the the holder fixing the 'scope to the case is removable (or would be with a little persuasion... *coughDIYcough*) as I already have a modded case. Could you maybe post up pictures of the inside of the case when you get it? Would really appreciate that, dude.

It would be one great accessory, if the S3 camera were up to par. It's unfortunate that such a great phone has such a lousy camera.

Yes and no. If you are holding the camera in your hand and your hans the slightest movement then yes, the camera bites. But if you stablize it, then it is a great phone camera. It is no DSLR, but great for what it is. I will say this, once this lens is on it. You will need to stablize it for sure.
A mod that I would like to try is putting a camera from one of the better HTC phones in this one. That would be a great mod to try. I might try Frankenstein between this and my Rezound. That cameea takes great pictures. But, quite frankly I would rather do this mod with a better camera. Any suggestions on what phones camera I should use? And who want to give up there camera in their phone? Lol!

looks neat, interested to see how well it works

Seems so interesting. I remember that I tried it on Nokia N95 few years ago. The effect is not bad. But there will be a little blur. The telescopic feature of this item is still good!!

This would probably be annoying unless you get a second back cover for your phone. I'm hoping anyone who purchases this has already thought of that.

I have the second one. It's not that good. The raised lens of the s3 make it nearly impossible to mount the ring for the lens. I customized a case for it.

Can anyone comment on the Bubblescope? Looks interesting.

They seems interesting.

That looks interesting, my friend has one and his works pretty good. I mean I've tried it but it just feels weird. But it does work.

[Q] is this fake or the real deal?

hey guys i want to know if this is the real back cover and the real galaxy s4 for tmobile im out of the country and my parents bought me this from ebay and im wondering if you guys could destinguish it thanks! ive been worrying all day!

Looks like mine, from what I can tell from the picture.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

looks pretty real but those images are low quality so its hard to see the details

Hey,
I'm not a 100% sure but it could be a 1:1 size clone...
If you'll take a good look at the camera lens and compare it with the galaxy s4 you'll notice youre camera lens is slightly smaller than the cam lens of a s4.
Could you post a pic of the inside without the battery and one only from the battery...

thats the problem. my parents bought me this phone and they dont know to much ill try toget a pic tomorrow but could maybe you putup a picture of your s4?

Here is a pic of the back of a real one
Sent from my B9500 using xda app-developers app

i see no difference at all and the pic you posted was of the non branded international version.

yeah and they said its not unlocked wouldnt a clone be already unlocked? likefor global usage?

I bought I clone that I was told was legit before. I found out otherwise by checking the 'About Phone' screen and downloaded an app to identify the internal hardware. Yours doesn't look fake from the pictures though.

Why is that a giveaway.. I always buy extra batteries and external chargers for my phones and sell them with it... that is one of the major benefits over iPhone... may as well take advantage of it.

New to note 2...s pen help

I just got a used note 2 and from who I got it from he said that the screen was broke and he had replaced it but whenever I try to use the s pen certain areas of the screen the stylus won't write on. Its either not accurate or scribbles to the left or right of where I'm writing at. Since I'm new to the s pen and the note 2 touchscreen I figured I would get on here and ask to see what it could be. I'm thinking maybe the digitizer but I didn't know if its built into the screen replacement or if its built into the the actual LCD panel. Any help or comments are appreciated.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app

It may be the spen itself.....my first note 2 the spen wasn't working properly either.....search Google for "note 2 spen calibration" there is a button on the pen and under it is two little screw like things that calibrate the pen....If that doesn't work then maybe new spen or might have to get a new phone...sorry

Here's a link for the S-pen calibration!! Hope it helps you.

FYI:
if that's your only problem is the S-pen, then you'll be ok. It's still working right?
Because if everything else works perfect on the device. Then your good to go. Imho

I tried the recalibrating and resetting solutions and it didnt work. I also bought a new s pen and still didnt work and when i tried to recalibrate it there wasnt anything to change like my first one. it just looked like a small circuit board with a button on it and thats all. Im guessing its a problem with the digitizer itself but since it works just fine with my finger ill leave it be for a while. just a shame i cant use the s pen for more precise doodling lol

Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk
Edit: just took the case off and still same problem... I'm thinking its the digitizer BC the person before me who own it said he replaced the screen and digitizer. I may be wrong. Just my thought.

Gotcha. Just a random thought.

In your opinion would it be worth switching out the screen & digitizer for a new one? Or just keep using it like this until the screen breaks or whatever.

Same here...I've done a little research and I'm not quite sure which part I need. I see a sensor board replacement that's pretty cheap, a glass/digitizer replacement that's also pretty cheap or all that plus a LCD panel that's crazy expensive. So I guess my question is would u just replace the glass/ digitizer or sensor board or both since my LCD panel seems to be in perfect condition. I don't really wanna tear more into my phone than what I have to ya know?

Anyone need any parts?

I bought an LG G2 coming Monday, and if it works out I can part out my SGH-i317. Capactive touch buttons, ribbon cables, etc. I even have the full AMOLED+Digitizer albeit with a few minor scratches (better than paying $200 I think).
It's all free if my new phone works out. The one thing I won't have is replacement front glass.

Not to discourage anyone, but it may have been a heat of the moment thread and he probably didn't really mean it. I wouldn't hold my breath. But I'd would truly appreciate it if it was true.
