  1. Yeah it sucks Luckily (or unluckily) for me, the adhesive dried up to the point where I can lift off the back glass as if I have a galaxy s5 lol so it makes the whole thing possible and ez
  2. I can bend the far left corner a bit when I take out the camera cover Is that considered "early 20s single mom" level broken? When I do it I don't hear any kinks or cracks so I'm not sure
  3. Is there a way to know if the back glass is broken without taking off the skin? Will I be able to see if its broken from the inside side of the glass? The adhesive is dried up so I can just lift off the glass but when I did it I noticed that its really flimsy on the top left edge where the camera bump is (N20U) Is that normal? or is the back glass actually broken there? I need to know if its broken before sealing it back up with a new battery and I just don't know for sure
  4. Yeah I just compared the prices Its 150 bucks for a Galahad 2 Trinity and 530 bucks for a loop kit lol Thought that it could be nice to have a loop but its still really expensive There are part from aliexpress from a well known Chinese company and its was cheaper, what about that? The intension of the loop is to push the 10900k to 5.2GHz. The silicon is good enough but my current aio is not plus when I do decide to upgrade my cpu the loop will still be usable, Ill just need to get a new cpu block
  5. Is it worth it? the loop will be used after I upgrade my cpu, will prob just have to get a new cpu block for newer sockets I've got a 5 year old Corsair h100x on my overclocked 10900k and I was wondering if its worth the effort I'm not that sure because at the end of the day they both have a 240mm rad so idk a 360mm rad wont fit at the top so It can only be front mounted
  6. What about the material? the only actual reason that I'm considering it is because I saw online that it has good material/coating for users who have sweaty palms Actually I was about to order the ec3-cw until I saw its price + shipping so Logitech it is
  7. The mouse is for my brother All he cares about is the fact that its wireless Right now he is using the g102 and its not really good because he has sweaty hands The G pro is ambidextrous and the 502 is not, that I know Also I know that the G pro is more of a simple mouse compared to the 502 The 102 weighs 85 grams and the G pro is 80 grams so they are pretty close The 502 is really heavy at 114 grams But what concerns me is the material of the mouse and battery life I kind of know what to expect from the G pro which is about a week of battery life with intensive use and two weeks if not so intensive (correct me if I'm wrong) I don't know what to expect with the 502 in terms of battery life There is also the category of price the G pro is 105 bucks and the 502 is 86 bucks right now with discount (was 123)
  8. I've got two options 1. G PRO Wireless for 105 bucks 2. G502 Lightspeed Wireless for 86 bucks Which one should I get? I saw some say that the pro is better and some say that the 502 is better I know that the 502 has a rubber-like (or something like that) coating and is better for sweaty hands so its a real advantage What about battery life? are they both good or bad?
  9. Yeah I know.... Looks like it'll be jerryrigged with a case then
  10. Its really expensive and I already have the battery Where I'm from they charge you a bag and give you the phone back with no warranty so its basically "New battery + reseal, that'll be 100 bucks. Here ya go, no warranty no nothing. Something went wrong? f u" Now go prove them it wasn't your fault, gl with that I'm not sure if they even seal it back to be water resistant but either way I won't trust my phone near water again because it was already opened
  11. Yeah I know that, I used to do the 0-100-0 with old phones back in the day When I got the phone out of the box I drained the battery to 0 and then charged it to 100 and left it like that for 2-5 minutes and after that just kept using it normally With my current phone I charge it to 80-85% and let it drop to 15-20% before charging it again I try my best to do this all the time but at the end of the day the phone was made to serve my needs and not vice versa I use Accubattery for battery monitoring. it shows that the battery health is at 78% and the capacity is 3490mah instead on 4500mah I guess its not that bad for 2 years and 7 months Israel
  12. Does not ship to my country Guess I'll just keep looking Worst case scenario I'll use a case to hold the back glass in place
  13. After 2.5 years it looks like the time has come for my battery Bought my Note 20 Ultra 5G back in march of 2021 and its really good but the battery is really showing its age and I want to replace it From Samsung, a battery replacement is around 100 bucks (new battery + reseal from what I've heard) Of course once my phone is opened I will no longer trust it near water (not that I do now) The back glass just opened by itself the other day, the adhesive has dried (battery didn't swell) Since a replacement from Samsung is expensive, I just got a new original and sealed battery from a friend My only concern is how do I get the old battery out? I've seen some videos of repairs and Samsung uses so much glue on it Can the alcohol damage something? what % of alcohol should I use? I really don't wanna buy a new phone Is it true that the new battery need to be calibrated? drained to 0 and charged to 100, left charged for another 2 hours and drained again to 0 and where can I find new adhesive for the back glass? I got a skin on it and its not cracked so I don't want to replace it I saw one on amazon but it says that it only fits the N986U which is the single sim version and mine the N986B/DS version (dual sim) so I'm not sure if it'll fit
