Not trying to be harsh but that sounds really dumb. Order a stylus for $1
Hammer for double tap ???

Why would anyone ever do that? If it was a resistive touchscreen then yeah maybe if you lost the stylus, but why in God sake would you put an $800 phone through that torture.
Lets just hope the Op doesn't play Draw Something with his phone

@OP
You just gave me one more reason to not give my phone to anyone.Not that I did anyway,but I just understood I was right to not do so.If someone had my phone in their hands and used their keys as a stylus,I would first choke them,then stab them,then burn them and,if they are a male,castrate them.
On a more serious note though,do the keys work with a capacitive screen?Seems strange to me...
lol any metal will work that coducts best of using a smoothed rounded edge though, if you dont want to risk scratching the screen. theres videos on youtube of home made pens :0 them $1 pens are rubbish... for accuracy.

Ok this is what you do. Get your phone. Put it in the microwave. MAKE SURE IT IS SCREEN UP. Set microwave to defrost. Watch the pretty colors. Remove phone. Let it cool. Viola, no more dust.

Has anyone sent their Galaxy S ii(I777) to Liquipel? I know it's not an option on their list of phones but they still let you send your device. I sent my device on Friday and will receive it back this week, you guys interested in knowing that if it actually works? Ill post up a video of my Galaxy S ii I777 getting ''Wet'' on.

Looks interesting but since I got my very first dumbphone I never had problems with getting water on it.
It opens up possibilities, but nothing I need at the moment.
Passing it on to my foolish friends though, so thanks for that!
No problem!
So it makes it water resistant but not proof right?

Wasn't there a video recently of a guy with a GSII that he put in a bucket of water and called his phone? I seem to remember that it lit up and displayed normally.
Yeah I've actually been waiting to see if this catches on.. Good stuff!
sent from my Galaxy SIII ...haha jk, I FOiLed ya!
I want see more reviews as its really new. But This is real. And does work. Here is how.
Hydrophobic nanocules are applied via vacuum. Thus coating the outside AND INSIDE from water molecules (which are bigger than the nanocules) thus can't get in and create a conduction.
It is rated itx-7 meaning it is waterproof to up to 30min at 1 meter (3feet) depth... Jeez. So i wanna go swimming with it

Its not meant for warranty purposes.. This is just for anyone that wants to protect their device from water damage.
Im sure it voids the warranty..
*edit* .. I think they are also trying to get in with (somebody.. I forget, but they mentioned it at CES).. so that phones come with the Liquipel protection - which is a great idea but than the suppliers end up losing money because of not having to replace asany phones.. Not sure how it all works but somebody loses potential mula

i played with this stuff at CES this year. It was Fascinating! They used the stuff on a Napkin and had it sitting in a pool of water. When you pushed the napkin around in the water it never got wet and just rolled off (unless you were extremely harsh with it).
Quite impressive to see. You could also see the water interacting with the screen as it splashed against it (showing that its not just a "fake" cover)

I have no problem with the size. It's great. Although some of the widgets looks small on that big screen. I don't have that gorilla hands, so I get short reaching the upper part of the screen when holding it both hands.
Awesome size! Can see a lot of stuff.

Believe it or not, it is actually SMALLER that the Dell Streak with an Otterbox case.
Had gotten used to the Streak over the past 16 months so this new one is a real treat in size as well as everything else.
Size
It is big even coming from the SkyRocket however function is great.
Honestly the Note has me looking ahead to an edge to edge screen which will reduce the width by 1/4" and height by 1/2". That is where the technology for screens is going and that will be perfect.
But after 12 hours I love it the only reason to return it will be the minors Lags but we should see that go away with Rooting and freezing the BS.
Love the size of the note. Definitely i can't operate with one hand but i can live with it.

I love the size. Watching movies on it is beautiful and I find it easier to type with two thumbs on the Note than I did on my Inspire.

check check the Note app/theme forum, get more usernames and info there
it was one of the first games brought up since we note users can take advantage of the pen
Yeah.. I kinda chimed into the conversation a little late. If you could believe it i hadn't even heard of the note till Feb. 22. I bought it Feb. 25th. Traded my iphone 4 just for my friends upgrade.

hey man! i love the phone..amazing screen. quicker than my GS4. some bits of lag that annoy me (theres lag when going back to teh home screen..seems as if the launcher redraws every signle time, but it freezes movement so you don't actually SEE the redraw.)
the one was a great phone, and i loved my DNA..but the camera on both were meh. i played with a one in the store, and while it's great, and those spekaers rock, the screen was too small.
the speaker is nothing special on the G2, to be honest. there's some kind of built in limiter/compressor that you CAN'T turn off, which sucks, because it makes music sound kinda crappy over it. haven't tried headpohnes yet.
over all, fast, awesome phone though with a great screen.

def! i'm seeing mike D and scott around too, so who knows, we might get some good stuff going over here.
the lag i believe is simply the launcher handling refreshes. it's not always there, but sometimes hwen you go back home and try to switch pages irght away, it doesn't do anything, then it moves over very choppy.
