Well the updated adapter to fit the 2018 SM-R325 Gear VR arrived today all smashed to S and I hope it works to begin with (doesn't seem broken) and it barely looks any different than the Note8 USB Type-C adapter. The inner molding is slightly deeper and more rounded but the actual width is about the same. The Type-C connection is a little more angled and there's a N9 stamped on the side of the adapter. If I had my 512gb Ocean Blue Note9 I would test the fit, but Samsung dropped the ball just like they did the padding in the packaging for this adapter.
Thanks for the info Mosely, what number or site did you go to request one?

I simply went on the Samsung+ app and hit the large + at the bottom right and selected Text Chat. Just say you have the SM-R325 Gear VR and you need the new adapter to make your Note9 fit. It's free of charge but I've read some agents asked for your Note9 IMEI to verify you own the phone, they didn't ask me this though.

Really not that difficult, took me a whole 3 minutes on the chat.
Makes sense to me. Money-wise why not just supply the adapter to the people who ask for them, instead of just giving them away to anyone and everyone and having to make more than probably needed.
Thanks for the heads up on this, just called Samsung and got my new adapter being sent out today!

I'm saying the new adapter didn't fit the gear vr that Samsung sent me. Even when I cut the adapter to custom fit it to the gear vr the note 9 still didn't fit in the gear vr cause of the size of the phone.

Do you have the SM-R235 or an older model?
Wow I just checked the gear vr and it is a older version sm-r324. Wow off by one number makes a difference with it all said and done. I just made it custom fit the the note 9 and I'm content now
Hey guys, I asked for the adapter on Samsung Members (Samsung+ app version EU) and it was pretty hard to get a assistant who was agree to send it to me (On my gear VR box I don't have the precise model, it just says SM-R324, and not SM-R324-xxxxx)
On my third try I've finally got a guy who understand the situation and ask for IMEI, SN from both note 9 and gear VR and all information for delivery.
Now I just wondering how long it takes for you to get the adapter ?
I'm pretty excited to test my note 9 on my gear VR, and I can't wait for it especially without having any tracking of the adapter.
It has been 6days since I gave my info to the chat assistant, when can I expect the adapter to arrive ?
Edit : 325 and not 324* I mistyped on my post sorry.
Hi guys ! Just an update to let you know that my adapter finally arrived today ! It took 14days for me to get it after I gave my info to Samsung. If anyone is in the same case now, you know you'll have to be patient.

Hi ! I'm sorry you're right, I just mistyped the number, but my story is the same. They didn't want to send me the adapter because I didn't have a special number following "sm-r325".
Anyway, I finally get it and it works perfectly. Sorry for the inconvenient, I didn't realize I have wrote the wrong reference on my post.

Nope, but I'm not that bothered about a stylus. Should be interesting to see how sturdy it is. Don't like the look of how close the track ball is to the base, for $26 it's worth finding out though.
I know this has probably been answered elsewhere, but the dock connections on the bottom of the Nexus, are we to assume they do charging and data connection without having to have a plug go into the micro USB port?

Hi ,
I've just posted the MONTAR by winnergear in the top3 accessories post , definitely worth a shot
I'd recommend buying an Exogear and being done with it! Exogear makes awesome mounts, and they'll hold many devices with or without a case!
Sent from my White Evo LTE running MeanBean, using XDA Premium
I recommend the Oso Mount. This can be used in 2 ways:
1 - sticky side on your windscreen/dash and clamp on your phone (up to 5 inch wide)
2 - sticky side to the back of a tablet and clamp on car vents
This is version 2 at £19:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/OSO-Space-Universal-Mobile-Holder/dp/B008E5OMGG/ref=pd_cp_ce_1
Version 1 is £14
I had the ibolt for the s3 already and it fits great and has room for a case but for some reason I can not get it to charge and output audio to my stereo. Loved my mount when i had my s3 but anyone know what would cause it to not charge or output audio. Is this the same problem you are having with your mount?
There are plenty of threads already about this exact topic on this section, and if you had searched, you would have found my review of the iBolt..... no need for a new thread asking when you could do the research and find which one works best for you!

The pictures on the website show that it might partially block the power and volume rocker? I wonder if that would be an issue for the S4? I also wonder how hard it clamps down on the phone when it is placed into the mount. The video on the website only shows a bunch of pictures, not a real-time demonstration. Other than those issues, it looks promising.

it has good reviews, seems non dependant on the device you own (hope it'll hold as fine with my note 8 also, would be great...)
so from the looks of it and even if the arm could have been longer, i would recommend this mount..

I have the same problem (the band actually separated from the mechanism that attaches the band to the watch, it is not actually separated from the case) and am bummed I did not get the sport version. Since I was using one large and one small strap, I have reversed the ends and can still wear the watch but who knows for how long.
However, I am using the failure as an opportunity to try and fashion a way to adapt the spring loaded mechanism to attach a standard watch band. I am still in the planning stages and will post something if I actually make it work.

Give it time - I have had mine for 2 months. Strap separated 2 days ago. Having a lot of problems getting Samsung CS to replace it under warranty. I would reccomend that you definitely buy the Classic. This watch band problem is not going away. New bands are $49 equal to the price of a Classic when you add the watch cost.

Could the people having strap issues please provide a tad bit more background on their use patterns?
Did the straps fail when removing them from the watch case?
Had the straps previously been removed just to determine which size worked best for you?
Do you wear your straps tight or loose?
I think this will help get down to exactly what the failure point is and if some are going to be more susceptible than others. For instance; I'd ordered a warehouse deal one from Amazon and when it arrived it had the small size strap on it. So I attempted to switch out the band to the larger size but the buckle side band was nearly impossible to remove. Ultimately i got it removed, but the band pulled away from the metal bracket on one side. Eventually i had to return the watch anyway because the previous owner turned on reactivation lock But I can definitely see these bands prone to damage and failure when switching them out.

I think mine broke because I wear the watch when I sleep and I move around a lot and probably was dragging my arm under my body or something. Anyway, I could see the band separating from the mechanism for a few weeks before it actually came apart. Normally there is no separation between the mechanism and the band but it slowly started showing a gap between the strap and it's mounting point.
I do wear the band tight. Definitely had nothing to do with removing the band from the watch.
I have been traveling all week and have not had time to try my idea for a retrofit to use a standard watch band but I have a strategy. Should cost next to nothing (<$2US) but it may not look great. I will try tomorrow.

Mine did the same thing. I did take the band off and noticed 2 small screws holding the connector part of the band to the rubber band itself. I was able to tighten those screws and the separation issue was fixed. However, I don't think I should have to tighten things that are coming loose on a watch that costs this much

My red band is size M. It also didn't mention any size or options to choose where I bought it.

My Guess on this sizing is: When you buy the watch the factory box comes with S & L straps. The additional bands will only be available in one size, Medium which will fit both small and large wrists.
Compare your new red M band with the original S & L bands that came with your watch. I wouldn't doubt they have taken a large band and possibly put more holes in it so it will fit most wrists.

I like the classic watch but for some us its not an option as we need the 3G, GPS and speaker which does not come with the classic.

The classic and sport are exactly the same. Unless I am missing something?
I want the classic. but I need it to have a speaker and GPS. can someone confirm if it comes with GPS and speaker?
Hey I recently purchased the Galaxy buds and I noticed with my phone in my pocket while I walk every couple of minutes or so the audio will Skip and cut out and I also noticed while it's skipping if I place my hand over my phone it will skip even worse making me think that these earbuds won't work if there's any sort of object even your pants are in the way.
My buddy at work has the new S10+ and he said it doesn't skip it all for him with his phone in his pocket. Could anyone who also owns the new Galaxy buds and use them on the Note9 comment on their experience? I have already reset the earbuds and reset the Bluetooth connection and it still skips, I'm wondering if I have faulty earbuds?
Same problem here with buds and note 9.

I did a chat with Samsung via the Members app and they think my buds are defective and instructed me to hurry up and swap them out for a different pair at my local AT&T store since that's where I got them since I am still within the 14 day return window with another pair to see if the problem still occurs. The skipping is happening with the black pair (not sure if this matters) but I am going to see if I can get a white pair in exchange since that's the same color the guy at work has without the skipping problem.
So? Did it solve the Problem??

Unfortunately no. I purchased them from ATT.com with their 25% any Samsung accessory promotion and they were sold out of them online and in store so I had no choice but to return them and now that promotion has expired.
Do you have an official Samsung cover on the phone? I got that until changing to a non smart cover. The NFC in the cover appears to limit the BT

Yes I was using the Official Samsung Rugged case. I no longer have the Note9 or the buds to check if this was the case though.
