    Default Batteries.... Can they be damaged by magnets?

    Hi gurus,

    #1: So I use a money clip for my bills and wonder if prolonged exposure of my cellphone to this money clip magnet will damage the phone? Memory or anything that could ruin it?

    #2: Can the magnet drain my batteryicon?

    Thanks in advance!

    depending on how strong the magnet is, in this case it may not be enough to drain your batteryicon but it could discharge it a bit, and also your display can be dirtorded by it, i wouldn't put my phone in my pocket where anything can scratch it specialy an LG6K being that they are so delicate.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

    (oOO \ (||||)(||||) / OOo)

    Any misspellings or grammatical errors in the above statement are intentional;
    they are placed there for the enjoyment of those who like to point them out.

    I see. Well, it's just a normal Coach money clip - nothing out of the ordinary. So far, the display hasn't been distorted - as how a TV set would if you put a magnet on it.

    Regarding the scratches, TOO LATE!!! hhehe

    Anyone else with thoughts?

    if you don't want to help don't respond. silence can be golden.

    Maybe he thinks your supposed to help him because he thinks he's so cute and witty?.... Being cute and witty may work for the little teeny boppers, but he'll have to do better than that to earn consideration and respect..... But he's probrably never experienced that feeling either?

    I guess we all were smart mouths at one time...

    He'll grow up quick someday.... if he ever talks like that face to face that is!!!

    smart mouths at one time? ah-hahahha! where do you get your material, genius? that's very original.

    I never claimed to be 'cute and witty', that was all you. But I do appreciate your compliments.

    I don't swing that way, but hey, it's all good. I respect that. However, you should be more careful with your online flirting before your man starts to get jealous.

    ha! face to face? time and place, my friend.

    Nobody is interested in your thread as you can see, and i think you need to relax, your kind of attitude is not tolerated here, and by the way get your own icon, if you're intelligent enough to make your own.

    You obviously have a genuine interest in my thread and bugging people. And you know what? You do a great job at it!

    My attitude? Ha! Who died and made YOU moderator? Hahhahahhaha. Daggum!

    And you really ought to try quit creating icons in your room at your mom's house and and try investing some time to get a life. Get a girlfriend or something. I'm sorry, "Palm-ela" doesn't count.

    He might not be a moderator but I am so I suggest you stop with these rude replies and name calling or we'll have to suspend you.
