Hello everyone,
I was so excited to get my note 2 until i came upon the following issue.
I am having a dead zone on my note 2 screen. Whenever I try to write somthing on that zone, nothing is detected. I have to press harder on the pen to make it wite there. And when it does write the handwriting is weird and and inaccurate.
For example: when i try to draw a straight line over that dead zone, the line becomes curvy.
Also when I hover over the dead zone, the pointer moves further away
What is really weird, that issue only happens when i use the s pen. When i used my finger the screen responds perfectly with no issue what so ever.
I tried calibrating gyroscope, restarting, but that did not help.
Anyone knows whats going on?

So you have a case with a magnetic clasp, this will throw off the spen at the spot closest to the magnet.

Hey, I recently bought my note and I was playing around with the photo editor and noticed that when I use the s pen, I can tell that where the pen is touching and where dot is showing up is not at all accurate. It ends up being approx 2mm right of where the pen touches.
Is there a way to calibrate the pen? Is anyone noticing this on their note?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App
Yes, this question has already been asked a thousand times and no, there is no way of calibrating so far, sorry.

I guess we have to wait for the pen sdk then? Thanks for the reply btw. An admin can delete this thread if anything.

I dont have a note but if you turn off and on rotation and turn the phone a few times or something like that it should fix it.

That happens to me when i'm not holding the Note completely in vertical position.
Since its been discussed earlier OK anyways here is d solution for that. Open s memo tilt the phone to landscape and touch or make a small circle in all the corner and again tilt it portrait and do the same. This makes good.

cover the 2 sensors on the top left with a piece of folded paper or something, do they light up?
Ah yes .. I'm sat under a bright light doooh thank you
Thought my home and back was faulty . It sometimes is less responsive than other times (double tap to get multi apps ) but I'm presuming that's a software glitch
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Others are reporting issues with the buttons sometimes not responding, not sure if it's a software glitch, or just a small footprint for the buttons, ie you have to press right on the button and not in the general area if you know what i mean.
Cool I'll relax then and stop worrying my phone is faulty. Big thanks
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I would monitor how you go with pressing the buttons, it may be a glitch, but i know when i'm using mine, i am often off the button when i press it, being used to the One X for the last year, the buttons are further to the edge, so automatically i have been pressing further out than the actual buttons are.
I always turn mine off. Just saying lol

The capacitive area is in fact VERY small. Just barely bigger than the Home and Back icons themselves. Precision touch is required and is why I suspect some think its not responsive

How do you turn them off ?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I use an app called keyboard backlights from play. Works great but recently in occasions they come on anyway. They are off 80% of the time though. Can only do if your rooted btw

Try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39498430&postcount=7
Seems that the One has very small area of touch for buttons, so probably not software problem.
Turn on vibrate and you will realise how small of an area we have .. seems the way it's been designed and not a bug . Vibrate assists because you know when your missing now don't have the issue

Got my Gear in this morning. Wanted to do an unboxing video. A first for me. Enjoy!

Give us your impressions.
So far, I am limited until my phone arrives later on this afternoon. Right now I am wearing it to see how it feels. I have large wrists so I had to use the furthermost hole in the band, but it fits well. It has a bit of weight to it, which for some, might take a little getting used to. The buckle also serves as the speaker.
If you're typing it can interfere with the wrist rests on your keyboard but your mileage might vary. I did power it on and take it outside to test outdoor visibility. It's sunny here in Houston today, I didn't see any issues, but again, it's just my preference.
It came with a 71% charge. I used the cradle to charge it to 100% which didn't take long at all. The watch is pretty much useless without the phone.
I want to see a pic of it on your wrist for size comparison plz ,,,,thx
Can you tell me if an MMS will show up on screen ?
How far away from the phone can you get before it loses connection ?
Thanks!

Still waiting for the phone to arrive. UPS is notoriously late for standard deliveries around here. I was surprised when they overnighted the watch lol.
I'll try these things out as soon as I can.

So what's the deal with this? As far as I can see my screws look to be the same height but it could just be an optical illusion LOL.

Thanks, I was worried the Gear might not fit. My wrist is 8 1/4" (21 cm). I usually need extra links with a Fossil watch.
I was talking about being aligned clockwise not at the same height. Hahaha

Judging from a few comprehensive review I've seen yes it does have limitations like for the email. However this thing does have potential... At this rate though, checking the battery life will have to wait till tomorrow as I still don't have the phone...

It is because since s4, full black color will turn off the pixel so need more time to turn it on again.
You can use Screen Adjuster from playstore, read below thread.

Can't see anything either, all I can see is an insanely gorgeous screen.
But then again, I never was very OCD.
