Really? When I tested it, it seems fine. Do you still get skipped key presses even after turning it on?
Is your glass adhered properly to the display?
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
I find that it is TOO sensitive when it's enabled using a glass protector. But without it enabled, it's not sensitive enough. Sigh. Wish they'd let us calibrate it.
P.s. I'm using a zagg glass curve elite ATM on both my S9 and S9+ and same issue. Just purchased some T-Max (generic Whitestone rip off at less than half the price of a Whitestone) so will see how those go.
Haha I guess it is one step to a better future. Where do you find it too sensitive? Is it at the curve areas?

Nah in general the whole screen. Especially when I'm typing on keyboard it always makes accidental keyboard presses.
Lol ok I guess a LOCA based tempered glass like InvisShield True Fit may be suitable for you then in this case
Does enabling it drain the battery faster?
Not that I know of

Korean sausages (and Japanese ones) are wrapped in plastic. They are not greasy at all. You'll need to unwrap it before you can eat it. It is a popular snack for kids.

in a week I'm gonna be going to a concert. I need to get my phone waterproof prior to the concert. I'm gonna go cheap easy and efficient. my initial idea was use 2 condoms just to prevent liquid from getting in on the phone. then I started to think I'll need the camera to take pictures and video but theres condoms covering the camera and taking away from the clarity. Its there any easy easy way to achieve this.

Yes, most do. But, you can get "dry" condoms. Problem with those is that they really aren't clear.
Double seal ziploc bag would do the OP better.
(see, this post/thread has nothing to do with modding...hehe)
Yeah.. I was going to say not go the the ones with lube lol...
That would be funny
A good clean Saran Wrap job may work. Its Cheap to try. Test it out. It may cost you a few feet of clear plastic wrap. a couple layers may do the trick
shrink wrap like you put over your window in the winter time at least those of us who live up north

Well, sounds like all he wants to do is avoid it getting wet from rain. And it would do the trick. But, these would do it even better. I know for a fact that these work, as I have used them before when kayaking.
So if you guys saw my review of the Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 you know that one of the features that I would like to see on the TF is haptic feedback. It's a very smart idea. I had it on my galaxy tab 7" too and I really miss it.
I took apart my TF in hopes of finding the proper mounting spot for the haptic feedback mechanism. I included a picture of the motor. So not knowing anything about circuits, the best I could do is provide pictures of all the logic boards in hope that someone can point me in the right direction. Obviously this will require some soldering but that's not a big issue for me (unless it's too small). Mounting the vibrator isn't the issue. The issue I an having is WHERE can I mount it so that it actually functions when I tap the screen or use the on-screen keyboard. Where can I tap into? Please look at the pictures and let me know if you have an ideas. I don't mind being the guinea pig.

Nowhere. If it wasn't designed for it, I can pretty much guarantee you that there's not a connection that conveniently sits there waiting to attach it to.

Eh, the question was answered. The Transformer doesn't really have any room for a motor. Not how it's built -- After all, it's made to be thin and small.
I wonder if any of those USB vibrators would work with the ports on the keyboard dock?
You very nearly had me Googling for a USB vibrator .... nearly!

The iPad didn't come with a camera yet it had the perfect spot for one. The Samsung vibrant didn't come with a camera but it was easy to snap one in. Just cuz a feature didn't make the final cut doesn't mean it wasnt initial designed to handle it- they probably removed it to safe money and bring the cost down.
The question isn't about room. There is plenty of room. Obviously if samung can fit a small motor inside then the galaxy tab (which is nearly half the size of the TF) then one in the TF is not an issue.

This was a good solution for a lot of people.
EDIT: LOL.... I just realized the first suggestion was Rain-X.... HINT, that is what my blog article is about!! Too funny man.
I just tried the rain-X trick and I must say that I'm well impressed!!! I use it on my bathroom mirrors as it stops them steaming up - It's great stuff! Will have to see how long it last but I would say it improved things by 90%...Going to use it on the screen of my phone too
Thanks man!

mine seems to last me a bit, i am ocd and clean my tab like once every 2 weeks and have been finger print free
I've heard about Rain-x before.
Now I'm from Belgium and I don't immediatly know where to get it. So I looked on Amazon.co.uk, but which one is it?
I can't post link to amazon coz I'm new.
But you have 3 different things:
*Rain X 88199500 Rain Repellent and Glass Cleaner
*Rain X 80199200 Rain Repellent
*Rain X 81199200 Anti Fog Repellent
I would also like an answer on this question, or a confirmation that
Rain X 88199500 Rain Repellent and Glass Cleaner
is the right one.
I have tried the last 2 and would say that the anti-fog works better...however none of them stop greasy fingerprints but I would say they definitely help!
Can anyone comment on this topic? Reviews on sites seem to really knock the outdoor visibility with these watches so I just wanted some opinions from some real users. It seems reviews continue to knock these devices but a lot of individual reviews from users on sites seem to praise the device and people just seem real happy with them. What's your guys take on this? I'm going to be picking up the Gear Live but it seems both have this issue.
Also for any Gear users, feel free to chime in about the charging method. That seems to be talked about a lot as well but sometimes you never know with these official review sites. I value actual users opinions more.

All the reviews that state the watch face is hard to see outside are stupid. It's obviously hard to see when the screen is dimmed, but as soon as you tilt your wrist and the screen turn on you can see it perfectly even in the brightest sunlight.
Yeah I figured a lot of them over exaggerate that topic. I mean my phone is hard to see in direct sunlight. These types of screens will always be difficult.

It's not bad, but of course it's not the same as if it was cloudy out. There is no phone where the visibility isn't slightly decreased in the direct sun. But we can still see the phone to use most importantly. But regardless, that is good to know about the gear live. I really want this watch. How do you feel about the charger port? Everyone keeps saying wait for the 360, but you know what, its August 1st and no announcement has been made. I'm tired of waiting and want to join in on the fun.
I honestly have no problem wit my S5 in direct bright as hell sunlight... But I love it personally. Got a messaging app for wear and now I barely use my phone for texting haha. Charging is painless IMO, I don't get the big deal people have with it.

I find performance in the rain to be more of an issue.
While trying to track my rides with Strava the rain often closes the app, swipes away cards and generally plays hell with the watch.
There are a couple of screen lock apps but then you can't actually unlock the screen with wet fingers.

How would a screen protector help? Water is simply highly conductive so that's why the watch goes all crazy. Only way to avoid it is to keep it dry or at least make sure there is no water connecting the touch screen with your skin

It was just a suggestion. Some screen protectors actually decrease the sensitivity of the screen. We Dont notice it really but maybe it would help prevent a couple rain drops from messing with the screen. Doesn't matter though lol. Not sure how in the future they can correct this besides your suggestions.

Theres a few phones that are actually designed for you to be able to use underwater. When they recognize water they change the input method from capacitive to pressure I doubt anyone is going to do that on the watch though. And about the screen protectors: If they lower the sensitivity you will run into problems when it's not raining xD

I thought about the G watch but absolute no best buy has that in stock. So sense they're basically the same watch, I'll just opt in for the cheaper one.

Maybe they'll get them in at some point.

That sucks, my nearby Best Buys all have plenty in stock (last I looked a few days ago). Why not just order one from the website? The only real reason I went with the G Watch is because of the magnetic charger...much, much better than the Live's. I do wish it had an OLED display though. But this is just supposed to hold me over to the moto360, provided it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
