Stylus falling out
all of a sudden my stylus just falls out of my mogul.
Any ideas on what to do? Thanks |
Re: Stylus falling out
Open the back, and where the stylus goes in there should be a small hole with a rubber plug, if the rubber piece is gone you will just have to use tape...
Just take a single 1"-1.25" long piece of scotch tape and cut it down the center so its half as wide, then wrap that around the base of the pen 1/4" above the black tip, that should fix it... as for getting another rubber plug, i never looked... |
Re: Stylus falling out
Or, take out the battery, and there's a little part on the inside wall that gets worn out. (you cant miss it) Fold up a tiny piece of paper and have it wedged between that piece and the battery when you put it back in. That'll definately make the stylus stay in. It tightens up the stylus slot. dschoenike

Re: Stylus falling out
Easiest fix I have is to bend the shaft of the stylus slightly to create tension against the side wall of the stylus port.

Re: Stylus falling out
i really think folding up the paper and just putting it between the the battery and and that little part that flexes along the inner-wall, works very well. Just my opinion :)

Re: Stylus falling out
I have been using the tape idea in post #2 for months. Works great and even gives you a little grip on the tip.

Re: Stylus falling out
I had the same problem and I just returned it under warranty, it is a manufacturers defect after all.

Re: Stylus falling out
ive had the problem where my stylus doesnt extend when i pull it out... and i can see that the rubber plug is not in right.. how exactly do i open up the phone to fix it?

Re: Stylus falling out
what i did to fix this problem was i had some fish tank sealant lying around. I used a paper clip and bent it out.. put a very small amount of the sealant n the clip and spead it around the inside of the stylus hole.. I let it dry for a couple h ours before i put the stylus in(THATS VERY IMPORTANT). There ya go stylus tighter and safer thent he day i bought it

Re: Stylus falling out
This sounds silly, but did you mean to say that the stylus SHOULD extend when you pull it out? Mine never has.

Re: Stylus falling out
so i got a new 6800 and it stinks. My original was great, stylus was tight and perfect. Now it doesnt open when i pull it out. So i put a piece of paper b/w the batter and the little plug and bent the paper over the top to push down a little. works good, not as great, but good. shoulda never got a new one!
