Hi,
I've started to notice that my spen doesn't seem to be working anymore. I never want first day that it is very difficult to use the pen for taking notes, drawing, etc. Wasn't dropped or anything like that, it just seems to of degraded over time.
I've tried it on stock market rom and cm9 and having the same problem. When I checked the pen on stock rom, by showing pen location on screen, it shows it (both when touching and above the screen), so it is being sensed.
Finger touch works fine so I think the digitizer works well. I also have a screen protector on, but I've tried taking it off and having the same issue.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Also, is there a way of increasing the sensitivity to the pen to see if that improves the problem.
Cheers,

I guess it must be due to minir wear-n-tear . You may try to OPEN and RESET at respective parts of your SPen.
I had posted a thread titled "Anatomy of SPen" on this forum, which might help you understand how to open and reset it.
Hi everyone,
So I got my brand new note 5 yesterday. It's a gift actually. I love it till now specially cause I have been using a note 3 since quite some time now so the note 5 seems like quite an upgrade.
The issue is that my spen isn't working properly. I don't know why but it requires too much pressure in order to write something. The hover feature and the button work perfectly but when you want to use it to write or to scroll or when I want to touch it to the screen in order to select something or draw etc it requires too much pressure. I have tried changing the nibs but that doesn't solve it. I used the spen on my note 3 in order to check if it was the phone or the spen and the note 3's spen worked fine on my note 5 while the spen of note 5 required a lot of pressure in order to write on the note 3. I even checked another note 5s spen today on my note 5 and it worked fine. So I'm sure it's my spen.
In the previous versions of the spen, removing the button on the spen showed a small screw which was used to adjust the sensitivity of the spen but in this one that sensitivity is not present beneath the spens button and removing the button on note 5s spen shows up nothing and instead ends up removing the button which I then had to put back using some scotch tape.
So does anyone of you have any idea how to adjust the sensitivity on the note 5s spen because I don't want to spend $35-50 on purchasing a new spen.
Thank you for reading through this long as essay but in my defense, I didn't know how else to explain the whole problem. Thanks in advance.
Hi All
M using Note 5 (SM-N9208) from India Region, there was a recent update of Android M, after that my S Pen stopped working.
When Spen is detached I get the air command but screen freezes and cannot use s pen on screen. Though finger touch is pretty ok and all other functions too. I tried stock version from sammobile but they r of no good response to my issue, its same. Tried every possible thing i knew. Can any1 be of help and jump in to any good solution.

I am having a hardware issue with my phone. I was wondering if there might be a software work-around to it. The sensor that detects the removal of my s-pen fires off randomly. I've set all of the settings so nothing happens (no air command, no vibration or noise) when these misfires happen, but it still wakes up the phone randomly. The misfires do not happen when the pen is removed. I tried a new pen but that didn't help - so the issue is on the phone.
So, I was wondering if there is some software solution that will trick the phone into thinking that the pen is always out - basically disable the signal from the sensor. I opened the phone and I found the magnetic sensor that triggers this but I really don't want to remove or replace it. It would be hard if not impossible since it's right on the board. I know this is an odd problem and I've not seen any reports of anything similar, but I was hoping that there might be some ideas out there. Thanks for your help!
PS: My note 4 is rooted.

Flash cyanogen based roms like cm12.cm13.resurrection remix
This roms are stock android like nexus phones and actually spen dosent works except with 3rd party apps.the spen detects aircommand only with touchwiz roms. so you dont have to worry if the pen is in or out it wont detect.if Hope that helps

Thanks. I think I fixed it. I had replaced my screen some time ago. The adhesive had become undone and it was pulling away from the board. I opened it up and glued it down. Seems to have worked.
HI All
I recently bought note 8 and everything was working fine. I got an update for the security patch but soon after that the spen hovering function is not working.
Please let me know if there is any solution to it.
Thanks.

Try another s pen, note 7, 4, 3, FE, at least to check if a s pen issue or a digitizer one
