If you hold your Galaxy S 2 in your hand as normal and tap it at the top, does it sound like their is something lose to you? Mine feels like there's something rolling around inside it and I only had this replacement today!
All of the top half of the screen aswell when I tap it sounds like their is something loose, it seems to be comming from the camera area of the phone.
I have a brand new one comming tomorrow but I just want to see if this is actually normal?
Thanks
I don't have a Galaxy S2 yet, but since it shares most of its components with the iPhone 4, I would assume that the sound is the gyroscope. My iPhone 4 does that sound too when I shake it, and it's coming somewhere near the volume buttons. SGS2 also has a gyroscope and I think that's the source of the sound.
I'm just not sure if my other one did the same thing, hmm. Would like to hear from other people.
Cheers
Can anyone else try this for me please?
I have no rattling coming from mine...

Hi, same issue here. Enabling the camera the rattling disappears. Disabling the camera the rattling returns.

Same here. Is there someway to fix it?
Everytime i use my camera as the app is loading up... It pushes itself against the clear glass and back again.. as if its focusing or something.. Just started doing it today.. Sounds like a rattle.

anyone having issues with screen turning off as soon as a call is placed even when not near your ear?, i was trying to setup my voicemail and since the process ask you press numbers to confirm or # i coulnt do it cus the screen would just keep turning off and wont turn on until i use power ,but, it will only last few second and turns off again, very annoying cus i cant see nothing when i place a call, on my OG evo the screen would turn off when near my ear but would turn on as i got it away.
then the opposite the screen stayed on and had used power to turn it off but, it locked the phone and when i tried to unlock it as soon as i got near anywhere in the whole screen it would just turns off and wouldnt let me unlock it to hang up,
and sometimes it would stay on when i place a call and wont turn off even if i get it near my ear..
sorry for my english...
Are you using a screen protector or have a case on that covers any part of the front?

yes i am using a zagg screen protector, no cases.
i was thinking maybe the protector, i hope is not that cus i paid $25 plus $7 to have it install at bestbuy
i was just checking the protector and i can see it covers the sensor space...
EDIT: THANKS donatom3..i decided to risk the $32 dollars i spend on the protector and cut the little corner where the sensor is, now works great!! when i get to a call it wont turn off like it did, when i place a call and get it near my ear it turns off but when i get it away and comes on just like my OG EVO...thanks cus i only did it after you asked me..i hope this help someone else having issues...
I dropped my Note 2 right on the face and broke the glass. The top right corner looks like a spider web with a few cracks stretching to the bottom. The display still works though . I plan to get a new glass and replace it myself. I've found quite a bit of info on how to do it.
My only question is this. When I last made a call with it the screen wouldn't come back on when I pulled it away from my face. I'm hoping it's just because of the cracks that run right across the 2 sensors at the top. Do you think it could be that or do you think maybe one of the sensors broke when it fell.
I sure don't want to have to replace the whole lcd unit. That's about $250 while the glass is about $20.

Hey thanks Luke. It's good to see you again. I'm actually using my Charge again for calls and texts. I find I've gotten really spoiled by my Note. The old phone feels clunky and slow.
Thanks for the good info. I'll definitely look for that when I take the busted screen off. It'll take a few days to get the parts. Wish me luck. I think I'm gonna need it. It looks like a hard job.

Another question. I'd like to be able to make the display stay on when I'm holding it up to my ear. Does anyone know a way to do that? I'd really like to use my Note even though the screen is broken. I don't like my Charge any more because it's too small.

Open the phone to the dialer. Hit the menu touch button then call settings. Un check auto off during call. The setting even says turn off proximity sensor.

small crack with resolution prob.
I have a small crack in upper right of screen & now my sharp color is gone. It is now very dull almost like I used a photo app & added an overlay to it. Need some advice
Well I got my parts and got the tools I needed to fix my screen. The problem was I got the wrong type plastic razor blades. I got scraper blades instead. I tried it anyway and ended ripping my LCD screen. Now it's costed an extra $ 200+ for a LCD Digitizer assembly. Hopefully the next day delivery will still work even though yesterday was a holiday and the post offices were closed.
Anyway, what I'm leading up to is don't try this if everything isn't kosher. It's a tricky job.
Update: I found out they won't even ship it til Monday. I guess I don't get it back this weekend. I really don't like my old Charge after using my Note all these months.
Herro.
Well, because its so big and lumpy, i've dropped it a few times. And that causes the sides to snap off. And im talking about the "chrome" side.
Anyone knows an easy fix?
What do you want to know here ?
What things you want to fix ? Tell here please clearly..
I just did a quick search on ebay and you can replace the bezel for under $13.00 USD
Here is just one auction:

Here is a video on how to dismantle the phone to replace parts:

Fine. I will do it..
I got an gt-s5830i with gingerbread 2.3.6 comes with the factory system. The phone get broken, so touch screen and the cover from behind where the battery is. So for couple days the back was covered with tape to avoid the dust and the sand going in on the battery, mainboard etc, dont do that is a really bad idea!!! The tape get ripped off with the handling getting part of a flex cable that looks like black patch frm outside and inside got a little copper plate. The phone works fine and i dont see where this part affects the device. Only the headphones are working strange about not aligned contact cause i don´t use the original phones. Can somebody say what is this part and how can affect the device???
I found nothing on the service manual about this, if is a kind of ground circuit, or interference filter. Pictures attached.
I think that was network strip..like antena

I found 3 pictures to have a better idea where this strip got contact to the mainboard, to clear was for function this strip has. Follow the red arrows.
