Can anyone recommend a handlebar mount? I'm thinking of using my phone as satnav and cycle computer.
There are a few on fleabay, but just wondering if anyone has first hand experience.

What's wrong with 3.9? Flashed it earlier this week and seems to be working a treat.
Is there a recommended overclock for these?
Mine sits @ 500/2000mhz 24/7 and runs fine using the RedPill kernel
Gaming i clock it down to 1800 as the battery get really warm

Do you undervolt?
i paused since the surprise of not being able to go back came up once people started to flash
Aaargh, went to grab my car key-fob from the pocket under my wheelchair, only for the lanyard to pull my phone out with it and drop onto the grass, about 35cm up.
The screen now has a large, but very fine crack - it still works, no noticeable damage to touch screen ability and seems no damage to the l*E*d.
I popped into speak to someone at the 3 store, whose advice was "Claim on your Home Insurance".
I've been given a number to call Samsung and arrange a repair at whatever cost, but surely there's a reasonable expectation for a phone to resist such minor impacts?
I'll call the 0330 number I've been given - presumably it's Samsung, but I'll not be happy if they attempt to charge me.

Bud it's your fault, they have the right to charge you. But good luck, it's worth a try.
The Note 2 doesn't have an LCD. It's OLED.
Agreed, the phone falling was my fault.
In contention: Whether I should have a reasonable expectation for an expensive device to survive a minor impact (35cm), onto grass, without significant damage

Seen a few comments about replacing the plastic around the edge of the Note 2, how easy is this to do?

I was having a clear out the other day when I came across my old HTC Hero. As it was going to get binned, and there just happened to be a 5lbs hammer nearby, I thought I'd break it. I held the HTC in my left hand and hit the screen with the hammer several times - not even a dent!Agreed, the phone falling was my fault.

Now, if a butterfly farts in China my Note II will implode!
Mmmm I was gonna hold off the 3 and stick with my trusted note2 but lack of update making me want note3. Pesky Samsung marketing
