Hello I kite surf and have an app that tells me go high I jump... Is there some thing out there to lock the screen on my app to prevent water splashing front closing it?
It's quite hard trying to get it back on while kite surfing and the app get closed ever time water splashes on the watch...
Thanks

Was really excited to try it but somehow if the watch is lock by that app and I cover the whole screen with my hand, it will fall back to the watch face... Features are deactivated on the watch ...

I can just feel the mini bath comments coming on...
And I don't think anyone would ever recommend using your phone in a sauna.
I use to do it all the time with my old blackberry and eventually it stopped working and it was because of water damage. Im not sure if it was because of the sauna or the pool beside the sauna. Who knows. My advice - If you choose to use it in the sauna, just dont use it too frequently.

I try to keep my precious electronics away from extreme weather and humidity. I'm sure a few times or something wouldn't hurt, but better safe than sorry.
This is why I have a cracked ipod touch I care very little about lol
thanks guys, i think i have my awnser already...the thanks button was all activated
Put it in a zip lock bag or something of that nature

It would still be the same unless maybe in a vacuum sealed zip lock bag.

Your battery temp shouldnt get real hot. Your cpu can go to those temps but the environment may cause the cpu temp to exceed what is safe/normal. The way I see it, use setcpu and underclock to 800-1000 mhz max or so while youre in there and monitor your cpu and battery temp. If they get too warm, take it out!

While in the sauna I use bluetooth headphones. Leave my phone in the locker.
I used to always take nice long, hot showers with my old MyTouch 3g without incident. When I upgraded to the GSII, I did the same for a while. But then the phone started having some weird issues, the mic didn't work anymore, and when opened it up I noticed some condensation on the inside. Fortunately, the water-sensor stickers didn't get wet and I was able to warranty replace it at t-mobile.
I do it all the time to listen to music. I wrap my phone within a towel to absorb the moisture.

I agree - bag that bad boy to protect it from the moisture, don't stress the CPU and you should be okay.
Works for mini baths too!

I think people are confusing Sauna and Steam Room. You're fine using it in the sauna. If you REALLY want to be safe, just underclock it to minimum values so it won't over-heat.
The biggest question is, what are you doing in a dry sauna with all those naked men???

I use my phone in my sauna all the time. When I use the steam function I use a Ziploc bag with a paper towel in it to watch movies.

IDK if it is just me or not but this just doesn't seem like a good idea in general, although I do give you props for actually using something to absorb the condensation inside the bag. Even if you do manage to keep your phones internal components dry you are still risking overheating S**T especially inside a ziploc bag(kinda like an oven). I think it is much safer to leave it put up somewhere for awhile, I mean really can you guys not live without your phones for that long? LOL
As a T-Mobile rep I've run into numerous situations where customers have water damage without ever dropping it in water. In these situations a common thing would be leaving their phones on in the shower and the steam getting into the water indicator sticker.
Even if you don't damage your phone, you will still risk voiding the warranty.

Heat and humitity and electronics do not mix I would not recommend it just to be/safe
Help!! Just got mine delivered and DOA I think.
It boots up, I can hear the boot sound. And by meticulously using a led flash light, I navigated through the sign up process. I thought the brightness was too low to see the screen. I can barely make out any words.
Finally afrer about an hour of watching youtube videos and knowing where to press, I completed the startup wizard. But when I put up the brightness to max, the screen does change brightness. It stays so dim that you wouldn't know it was turned on without looking at it with a bright light shining on it on an angle.
I tried accessibility options. Still no difference.
It is minus 10 outside. I'm thinking that it must have froze in the warehouse enroute, because I picked it up several days after I got the notice. Is the LCD screen damaged? What should I do now. I ordered it on eBay and the tablet is from malaysia.
Any way to fix the super dim screen? I flashed many roms on my Note 3. But I don't want to lose the warranty on this just yet.

Here is a picture. Auto brightness off. Screen brightness to max. Can barely see that it is on.

I'm going through Ebay resolution center now.
I had this problem after I dropped mine on vinyl floor luckily I had extra warranty through best buy and got it replaced(no crack screen either). I assume it probably knocked loose the screen connector.
From which ebay reseller did you buy it?

I saw this kind of thing in the N5 section
I dropped my XM about 5 times on asphalt, rocks and normal wooden floor
It is fine but the cover just started squeaking when pressed on the right spot
What about you?

Never dropped my phone on the asphalt, never on rocks, probably some 5-10 cm drops on wood, a couple of drops from the bed onto the carpet. The thing that I always love to do is throw it like a frisbee onto the couch or bed Had 2 bad drops onto carpet that way, but I have NEVER dropped it face down. I have used both a case and screen protector, but I feel that they are just a waste of money(that's if you don't have fingers made of butter). Using a screen protector is recommended, but really, it's like using a condom.
Your next question will be, how many times you go for pee, ryt?
Grow up op.
I often have my Z2 in my front pocket, today I let the phone, screen down, on my desk, and noticed it is twisted, this is really weird, I can twist it in either direction by about 1mm, I didn't know phone those days were so flimsy and "soft" :silly:
Mine has done the same. You can tweak it back.

Anyone noticed that the Galaxy watch dial scratches like butter? Coming from the gear s3 I'm a bit disappointed as I had no apparent scratches or scuffs after 2 years of usage. Now one month with the Galaxy watch, doing the exact same things, I have a bunch of scratches exposing the metallic color on the edge of the dial's rim. Anyone else experiencing this?
Same here. This is not really a good material.

So far nothing has happened to mine and I've bumped and scraped against hard surfaces several times. Nothing like a brick wall mind you, but so far it's held up quite well for me.
Ok. Good to know. It could be a quality control issue then.

nope, they are all the same : They all scratch easily. The painting is thin and weak.
mine seems good since day 1...i work as paramedic and it gets scrapped and allsorts.
Mine had what seemed to be scratches the next day I bought it. I lived with it for about a week then tried to clean it away, and it turned out to be some sort of outside paint that came on the dial. I cleaned it off.

I had the same thing happen to me after a using to for a couple of days. I don't think that the black paint on the dial actually comes off.
During the first 2 weeks I dinged it twice against a wall and had minor scratches, frustrating but a pass with black perminant marker and then smudging the ink to blend did a great job at covering up

Great advice! I tried it on a scratch and it covers up nicely. Thank you.
