You have to press pretty hard.

The tool has bent. Iv pushed it all the way in and it still doesnt pop out

I thought i was going to have a similar issue - i pressed the tool in, head a small click and the tray didnt pop out. I thought for sure I had broken something. I tried it against a few seconds after and it came right out.
If it bent - try finding a thin needle maybe, that could fit in the pinhole and basically serve the same purpose as the included tool

Yeah i have been trying for ages but it wont come out it sucks i cant use my phone. I will have to try again tomorrow with something more sturdy.

Nothing works i still cant get it to open! I have tryed a paper clip and a few other tools. Dont know what to do
Edit: i finally got it! If anyone else is having problems i just used a solid pick tool and pushed fairly hard and it worked. That sim tool is a piece of crap

Disable softkey backlight

Is there anyway to disable the softkey backlights? I've tried LEDs Hack and Screen Filter and neither work.

Very helpful. I know there's a way to do it even if no one's thought of it yet. If I have to I'll just desolder the LEDs and bridge the spaces. I'd rather do it with software though.
Or just like get electrical tape and cover it up itll still work

a little crude, but might work. I suppose I could trim it with an exact-o knife.
Its what I used to do, but I got over it so I just used a privacy guard screen protector and its kinda blocks it out too

it's a bit of a leap but there's film you can get to cover automotive lights. Maybe a clean rectangle or appropriate shape cut out can at least dim them some and be more durable and cleaner looking than tape. Heck... window tinting material might work. Although I don't know what these methods would do to any touch sensitivity. Ideally you would still see the lights, they would be dimmer and still function.

Right side of screen easily shows pressing of display?

Ive noticed everytime I pick up my note on the right side light appears as if I were touching the screen from the back and pressingit..ifk if im making much sense but happens almost everytime I pick it up. Does this happen to anyone else? I can still exchange mine so I want to know kind this is normal.. it doesn't happen on the left side though.

Went to best buy and every note does the same thing. I'm guessing since its so thin this happens. No biggie I guess.

Tapping toward top of phone turns on screen

I'm noticing that when the screen is off and I tap toward the top of the screen the phone screen turns on. I just noticed it today but it happens every time I tap the top of the screen. Also when the screen is on and I hover my finger toward the top part it selects buttons on the screen as if the sensitivity is high up there. Thinking of returning the phone for a new one but wanted to know if others had this problem.

It could be a problem with your sensors I'd call Samsung or take it back to sprint

I would boot in safe mode and confirm it's not a third party app before taking it back. Also poke through all the settings to be sure motion and accessibility features are off. Safe mode instructions for the s3 or s4 worked for me. I forget how to do it but Google is how I found it

Thanks for the help, I figured out it was an app causing it after all

what app was it?

Anyone buy Reqallable?

I did, and then downloaded the smartphone companion app for my note 3 and it appears to only support the Pebble and Sony watches. Am I nuts or did they pull the trigger on the gear 2 release before their main app supported it?

Your absolutely right. Thanks

I downloaded today and think it is promising. I tried with my outlook. Com first. No luck. Switched to my gmail and Viola. I tried one reply and it went out but I didn't receive it. Also I can't figure out what the fetch frequency is. Of his to adjust it. I will keep playing with it.

I did also. But, I couldn't really get anything push to Gear 2? I got one text out of many SMSs and emails I received since I installed this app. It doesn't seems to work, unless I didn't do it right. Need to look at it a little bit more, otherwise I think it is a waste of my $1.
My initial impression is that it is overly ambitious. I am going to tell it nothing about myself and it is going to essentially run my day?

LG G2 screen issue

I've never heard of this problem before. The other day for no apparent reason my g2 screen looks like the letters below apps etc are smearing across the screen. I'm attaching some pics. It's really strange. I've done a hard reset but the problem doesn't go away. There isn't a T-Mobile store in my area so I can't have them look at it.

Hi did you try flashing a different firmware?
No I didn't. LG emailed me back and said I had a defective panel and to send it in. I haven't heard back from them yet.
