Today the nib fell out of my pen and I haven't been able to find it - let alone figure out how it fell out in the first place. I didn't get any replacement nibs in the pack that came with my Flyer: does this mean that I am going to have to get an entirely new pen, or can someone point me to where I can get new nibs? A search on ebay didn't turn up anything.

I don't think you can find it alone. It seems you have to go for a full new pen...

I'd get a hold of customer support. I think they used to come with extras, but stopped.
Also a different alternative:

If it's the wifi version from best buy, i can swear they say on the plastic you can get a replacement one from them.
you might also jump on Ebay and contact this seller that seems to be a 3rd party supplier of HTC pens.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-SCRIBE-...ccessories&hash=item20bcc792ce#ht_2701wt_1185
Thanks for the replies, everyone. Being outside the US, seems like I might have to go for the full replacement of the pen. I'll let you know how it works out.
I would contact customer support. The nibs ARE replaceable!
You can buy them, saw it somewhere but not sure where
Anyone get a replacement nib tip for the Scribe pen? I just contacted HTC USA at 866-449-8358 and unbelievably they have no clue on where to get replacements. Spoke to several service reps in various departments yet no one knows. They also transferred me to their accessories dept and they don't even carry the pen.
Can anyone here give me a lead on how to get a hold of one? Thanks!
Surely you have gotten hold of someone that hasn't a clue. They are using the same stylus with the Jetstream tablet and upcoming phones.

I spoke to 3 reps and 2 in the tech department (1 specifically for the tablets), ultimately they will direct you to a company called 'Let's Talk' who states that HTC sends them requests for parts that they never have. Called 3 Sprint stores and spoke with GM's who refer you to contacting HTC directly.
'DigitalMD' it seems like something trivial but do you have a source for ordering the replacement nib?
Thanks.
No I don't , I never tried to obtain one, but I am shocked Sprint and AT&T are currently selling Flyers and Pens
Wish Me Luck!
OK, so I have absolutely NO idea where my stylus tip went. One minute it was there, then gone. I've searched everywhere but it won't turn up until I'm no longer looking for it. So I was looking online. I didn't call support since it sounds like they really aren't much help on these kind of things but I did find tip replacements for a similar pen used by a Motion Computing tablet.
They come in five packs for $15 plus $4.95 shipping. I'll let you know if they pan out. http://www.provantage.com/motion-computing-509-500-02~7MOCUE8C.htm

LOL, and they've got the pen for $21.95
http://www.provantage.com/motion-computing-509-500-01~7MOCUE83.htm
Kinda crazy that buying a whole new pen is just a few dollars more.
I know. But I have the two button stylus (well actually two of them) so I figure this is probably going to happen again sometime so I might as well have a backup. Of course that assumes this set works.
Ok, so the tips just arrived and we have a match. The tips aren't solid like the original but still work fine. I've included a picture comparing them.

Thanks but that one looks pretty flimsy and cheap.
Hmm I like the one shown for the iphone.... I'm also interested if there is something similar for the EVO 3d.
Well I've done some light searching and I can't find anything better than the one from the ebay link posted above.
Sadly the company that makes the one for the iphone, only makes products for Mac...... Which really sucks.... I hate when they do that....
I had one for my Evo 4G but only used it about 3 times. I like the iPhone case in the OP. The eBay case I've looked at before, but don't like how your credit cards are up against the camera lens, which could lead to scratching. Plus, when opened to take pics, your cash and card pockets are then upside down which may cause your money and cards to dump out.....
I bought my Evo 4G wallet case at obostore.com. I will check there to see if they now offer 3D wallet case. Also, seems like i saw another really nice wallet case some where else the other day ( they were $30-50 I believe) They offered black, Brown, and Brown/ tan limited edition with leather and suede.
EDIT: Never mind, here are the new leather cases i was thinking of but they are NOT wallets also... Sorry about the hope I may have given some of you, haha. Here is the link to what I was thinking of www.melkco.com/scripts/main/viewitem-O2EV3DLCJM1BNCVBNI-EV3D.html

The one I posted from Ebay has a cutout for the camera. I'm assuming you could just fold the front cover back when you're texting, emailing, etc. If I do end up getting it, I'll report back.

I've lost my wallet more times than my phone. But I do so much on my phone that it rarely leaves my side. Something like this would be nice for me. My only problem is losing the magnetic code on a couple of my cards. But I'm pretty sure the wallet takes that into consideration.

This might be up your street.
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/EASECASE/H...&submit=Search&_fsub=868362018&_sid=149381558
I've had many cases off these guys over the years. Very customisable, the two down the middle double as wallets. Will free up a pocket though. Manufacture quality is good.
You won't be able to put a case on though mind and an invisible shield would be something else to look at or maybe a skin?
Constantly taking the phone out with those designs might become a pain as others have said already
Forgot to mention that when I had an xda IIi I had something similar it became a pain and I went back to the official leather case. Didn't work for me.

Take it back. Why would you keep something with an obvious defect when they will exchange it with hardly an explanation? Walk in an tell them what's wrong and you'd like an exchange. They will do it.
It may very well be a dead pixel. Dead pixels are not all that rare. I'd say go to/call sprint and say you want a replacement. Who knows how long it will take for you tovget one though.
I would definitely bring it back....it does look like a dead pixel. I had the same problem with my old 2g iPhone and after a few months of use the dead pixel went straight across the screen overnight. Dont wait just tell them you are not satisfied and want a new one. At least you know too that you wont be getting a refurb this early in the game.
i just called 2 stores and they dont have any in stock =(

That's the only problem with 'take it back', you might have to wait a while. Its not that easy. Sprint stores still have preorders they need to fill as well (which they haven't done yet).
Agreed, swap that sucker out. Good luck on finding one though.. Hopefully the stock issues will get taken care of swiftly.
I had to return my OG evo within the first 30 days because it had the crack by the power button on the casing. Turns out, most of them eventually did this, but they replaced it and before they were giving out refurbs.

If you call them they will drop ship you one just as easily too...I'd call around and see if the stores have any in stock(not likely though)....If not just call and you'll get one shipped to ya for less hassle for going into the store and likely just as fast if they dont have any in stock right now at the store...

I got told this as well for my proximity sensor problem. They told me they are not allowed to just ship another phone out... such bull****.
I have a similar spec of dust under the screen in mine. It's so small I barely notice it. Unless there are more serious issues with the device, i'm not going to lose sleep over it or bother returning it.
This spec is only noticeable on a white background. I'm not OCD enough to be bothered by this When viewing the phone in a bright environment (outside), you don't see it at all. Having a spec of dust under the screen protector is much more noticeable than this.
Got another package. Free case as a thank you

What kind of case? I just ordered the Seido one and may consider returning it if it is a good one.

Nice that they are doing that, but does anyone actually use the silicon cases anymore? I though most would use TPU at minimum. Maybe just me, but silicon cases always collected tons of dust and stretched like crazy after 1 or times taking it off the phone.
That will work, gives me some protection for the holiday weekend since my other case won't get here until Wednesday next week. Definitely a classy move to do that without any prompting etc.
Same package here. Sprint going the extra mile to please customers.
That's the way to do business...
Guess it's only special people as I did not get this even though I paid full retail for the phone.

Complementary Case from Sprint
Hey, just thought I post this, sprint just sent me a complementary case to make up for the pre-order patent delay. That was nice of them.
What does the back of the case look like?
I've got one being delivered today as well, apparently. Too bad I've already got a Seidio case and don't like blue cases.
I checked ups using my account number plus zip code since its said too many shipments and its on the truck for today. Very nice of sprint even we know it costs them a buck to make etc but still nice of them.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
Can who ever got one post the part or model #. Does it protect the screen too, or is just perimeter protection?
Sweet! I can't afford to get a TPU/Otterbox case in a while so this will do for now!
Thank you Sprint!
Guess I spoke too soon. Looks like I have an extra package coming today as well. Kinda funny cause I just ordered a casefrom telesales that should be here today as well.
In any case it's a very nice gesture that sprint and htc are doing. Even if I didn't get anything from them I wouldn't be complaining as the phone was well worth the wait.

Like many pre-orders, I received mine on Thursday.
I was disappointed, however, that the seal has been broken and there were scuffles and smudges in the back near the camera.
Perhaps, mine was opened by US Customs to examine.
I'm wondering if there are many others out there who received their phones in similar condition.
Also, I couldn't find any headphones included. Is that right?

The serial number, hex and dec number on my box were different from the ones on my phone. I had all kinds of problems getting it activated until i pulled the back cover and saw different numbers. The tech support guy at sprint i was on the phone with said he has only seen that 1 or 2 times in the several years hes been there. Customs must have taken it out of the box and put it in another.
Yall are just the unlucky bastards.
1st guy... Probably did check Yours and the agent didn't give a crap.
2nd guy... Lol that is 100 percent the agent was a retard. My of broke it and put a different one in it.
Cough get dna... Background cough
Wow that really sucks....I hope you can get that replaced...or at least replace the top plastic.
i'd be madd pissed.
denggg.. so did the customs agents just randomly open boxes to check? i thought maybe they'd take one from each batch or just one period for investigation. rediculous.

Maybe the phone that was originally taken out - was NOT but back in, but they kept the packaging/labeling and threw in another phone? Hence the mismatch numbers. Just a guess Would probably be easier to open a box with no label and just put that phone in the labeled box.

All the phones I have ever had come with headphones (and micro SD too). Odd.
It's a $500-$600 phone, and doesn't include headphones. That's quite perturbing.

That's really sh1tty. Sorry to hear that.
@other
OG Evo didn't come with headphones either. Box. Phone. Charger.
sent from 2yr old Evo on ICS
My last 2 phones were the EVO, and the EVO 3D, neither of which came with headphones. The way I see it is the headphones that come with phones are usually pretty crappy and I'd rather have them spend that few cents on improving the build quality of the phone. They're most likely going to cut corners somewhere to pay for the headphones they include.

I've had the V30 since launch and am looking hard at the V60. I've never owned a Samsung, but also considering the S20.
I currently have a Note9 as my main device and a Mate 10 Pro as a back up. This is because I really like using a desktop mode on my device. Now LG have implemented a version they come into my sights as a viable option. And the V60 looks to be an awesome option. The second screen looks genuinely useful as well.
I'm considering the V60 as my next option. I'm on a Moto Z Play with a cracked screen so I've been looking for something to upgrade to for quite some time. The V60 checks all the boxes I need:
good sized battery
good screen
good connectivity
good audio
good features
I probably won't use the dual screen accessory often. If they price the V60 right, it will be an instant buy for me.
Depends on whether I can remap the STUPID assistant button or not. If I cannot remap it, then absolutely NO! Turning it off is not good enough. If it is there I want it to do something, but I never use these useless assistants at all!
I'm extremely tempted.. after ordering my s20 Ultra 3 weeks ago and coupled by the fact that I am still awaiting it to ship I'm about to cancel my order and await for this to officially drop.
Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
I'll probably think about getting one because I'm not satisfied with my LG G8 battery life. It's kinda bad. Probably a bad unit, I know most people are getting decent battery life.
Although the V60 will probably be too big for me. Owned a 6.4" phone in the past and it was big, but 6.8"? Damn lol

Did a live chat with LG tech support yesterday to ask whether the STUPID dedicated Google Assistant button could be remapped to anything more useful...The answer was NO. So I told the tech to forward my decision to those who make such decisions that they lost a sale. I hate useless features that cannot be disabled, uninstalled, or especially for a hardware button...cannot be remapped to something else. Their loss...many more fish in the sea! Looking at the new Sony Xperia 1 Mark 2. Meh
Ordered mine first thing this morning. Glad I did because AT&T is now out of stock already lol. Can't wait to come back to LG after having an iPhone for 2 years. I still use my V20 for things my iPhone can't do. I shouldn't need a supplementary phone if I paid $1k.
Lol I got mine

Nice, had to order online because the stores were closed. How is it so far ? Like it, hate it ?
I'll get it after it gets root. until then i'm sticking to my v30. I am seriously looking at the pixel 4 XL. I need my root.
Did a live chat with LG tech support yesterday to ask whether the STUPID dedicated Google Assistant button could be remapped to anything more useful...The answer was NO. So I told the tech to forward my decision to those who make such decisions that they lost a sale. I hate useless features that cannot be disabled, uninstalled, or especially for a hardware button...cannot be remapped to something else. Their loss...many more fish in the sea! Looking at the new Sony Xperia 1 Mark 2. Meh

I've found that the tech support people are often very limited in the understanding of what can and can't be done on devices they support. I've ordered one, and I'll let you know what I can find out.

I look forward to hearing from you on the remapping issue. I have done a great deal of searching for answers to my question with several different LG devices that have the button incorporated into the hardware and the answer is always a big fat NO to LG allowing a remap of the Google Assistant button. I have read about a few work around's or 3rd party apps that partially work, and then there are those who say the work around's do NOT work for them...so it appears to be hit-and-miss. Some have surmised that it is Google that doesn't allow this to take place. If that is so then Google must be paying a tidy sum to LG and other OEM's that include the button in their devices. This to me is the epitome of arrogance to think that people want their useless crap forced on them when paying major money for a cell phone. I will be sure to spend my money elsewhere. For LG to agree to a $$$$ contract with Google for something like this will not bale them out of bankruptcy should this phone fail...in fact...it may lead directly to the very failure they're trying to avoid. So sad!

Will you keep the phone in the dual screen housing 24/7? If not, what are you looking at for cases?
Unlocked carrier available yet?
