T810 Keyboard issue in landscape mode - Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently purchased a Tab S2 9.7. It is on the 5.1.1 build LMY47X. T810XXU2BOJ1. The issue I am experiencing is that when I use the samsung keyboard in landscape mode, every time I press the letter h, it presses twice. So instead of typing the, it types thhe.
Has anyone else experienced this or something similar? Would it be possible that if I could reinstall the samsung keboard apk it may fix it? I have also tried using the keyboard in the split mode and it does not have the same issue. So I'm curious if it is a problem with that part of the touchscreen or the keyboard itself or something else. I installed swiftkey and it does not have the same issue. However it is also much larger on the screen so the h is not in the same place on the touchscreen,
I apologize if I'm not making much sense but hoping to resolve this without having to send off to Samsung repair center for who knows how long.

[Q] "reverse" accelerometer, or app problem?

Hello all!
I have been a proud user of Galaxy Note user for a bit over a week now, and I am trying to test (in real app-world) if all the sensors are working correctly to be able to bring change it at the store if something doesn't work, since I'm eager to root my device and I probably won't be able to return it then.
Yesterday I installed the game AirPenguin, which uses accelerometer controls, and it seems all messed up. Basically what happens is that as soon as the game starts, the bird goes flying way left, even though I am holding the phone still. What I found out after experimenting a bit was that the game itself is locked to portrait mode, but the accelerometer works as if it was in landscape. Meaning I have to hold it in landscape, and when I then tilt it left, the bird flies left in game-screen, but left is down from my point of view.
I was wondering if anyone else has seen such problem in this game or any other app, and if it is just a game bug or if there could be a problem with the accelerometer.
The stock accelerometer calibration works without a problem - when I tilt the phone left, the ball goes right, and when I tilt it right, it goes left (I suppose that's how it's supposed to be).
Thank you all in advance!
ME TOO
I'm facing the same problem on my Galaxy Note, I wonder if that happens also on other android devices or it's a galaxy note issue only?
i dont have the app, but is auto-rotate (that thing in the notification bar) turned off or on? try changing that to see if it fixes it?

Nexus and HTC Flyer, too any solutions?
Same problem with my Galaxy Tab 7+ P6200. I have encountered so many games in the google playstore with this problem. Too bad, i hope the app developers fix this problem for our devices.
afair there was a free app for comprehensive hardware testing, it was called Z-Device test, if stones interested, and google does not hello, I may try to find the link or apk later

[Q] Occasionally no response lower right screenside CM9 and CM10

I have experienced a really strange phenomenon. Just got a new Galaxy S GT-I9000 and decided to give CM10 a shot.
The main problem I am facing is some sort of a lag or better no response at all randomly. Problems are visible when:
1. I type on my keyboard
2. I scroll down long lists
The Problem.
Sometimes the device doesnt respond to my "tap" at all. The bug just occurs on the right half of the keyboard so you could say lower right half of the screen in a certain area around [k, i, l , j] buttons. When scrolling down lists my thumb is normally in that area so even when scrolling down the screen simply does not react from time to time and when I lift my thumb up and tap again everything works as normal.
This problem is extremely frustrating because I am not able to type properly anymore. First i was afraid its not the Firmware BUT my phone. But on stock rom I dont experience any of this at all.
Does anyone have an idea? Why can't I find something about this problem in the Forums. CM9 should be stable and nobody seems to experience this problem but doesnt the fact that it works on a stock rom prove, that its can't be the hardware?
Greetings

Screen Lag while charging

Anyone having a similar experience? Any sort of screen input seems to bog down really bad and finding myself having to retype things and hit keys again. Wondering if it is somehow heat related? Or some kind of software flaw? It happens with the stock keyboard and swiftkey as well. Any input is appreciated, thank you.
This happens to me all the time now. It is really annoying. I'm going to do a clean reinstall and see if that helps.
It happens to many people. I get this too sometimes when typing on keyboard, it will miss some of the keys/letters. It could be touchscreen issue and/or LG Keyboard issue. The interesting thing is that when I started to use the phone it didn't do that, but in 4 or 5 days it started to do that. I cleared the cache of LG Keyboard, but still didn't help. I hope LG gives us some sort of software update even if it is not 5.1.1. We need a normal working phone!
Yeah interestingly enough it happens mostly on the charger. When I'm off, it seems to be pretty much good. Although it does miss some presses on occasion if I don't press deliberately enough. It's almost as though the touch screen sensitivity is botched
Yes common lg issue. No idea why
change the keyboard and hopefully lg will send a software update to fix this and this only while charging also is your phone usable
What temps are you guys getting when the Keyboard lag occurs while charging for both battery and CPU?
In my case and also others have reported that keyboard lag occurs in any condition if the phone is charging and when it is not. I think I have eliminated the keyboard lag by disabling vibrate in LG Keyboard settings. Now don't have any missed key presses.
I get this when charging very time, and I don't use the LG keyboard. It's definitely a hardware issue. I don't use the stock LG charger though, but it doesn't sound like that would make a difference.

Touch issues / Sensitivity issues after Nougat update

Okay so I wanted feedback regarding this whether someone else is experiencing this or not.
I have gradually observed during the last few days that a lot of my touches to click have gone unresponsive in Nougat. Initially it was something that I hadnt quite noticed but slowly the trend became obvious. Now dont get me wrong, this would happen a few times here and there with lollipop and MM as well, but the rate is far higher now on Nougat. Especially when typing on the keyboard this means mis-spelled words, missed letters, and accuracy is far worse now.
Has anyone else observed this or is it just me?
Just got my xcover 4 with nougat installed i have the same issue.
The sensitivity is low and i need to press a bit higher finger force to respond.
Even with sensitivity (glove mode) set to on things get worse.
I'm seeing the same thing. What is strange is that I'll see the button highlight/depress, but no action occurs. This is on multiple apps.
On what device/OS?
Sprint Note 5 on Nougat
Did you try gloves mode? Does it work?
the same for me on 920cd and the same iusse using S pen
I contacted samsung Greece about the existing problem.
I reported the problems me and you guys have and the tech support told me that your problems exist because you did not factory reset the devices before upgrading to nougat.
Anyone tried to contact samsung about the problem?
They dont know anything about it.
facing same issue screen lagging in note 5 sm-n920s also tried custom rom but still lagging in typing and scrolling on facebook
I have the same problem on my xcover 4 here!!
When I run the the touch screen test, touch screen responds well, but when I want to write a message or to scroll the home screen Its very annoying. It looks like software problem.
please help
Hi guys.
I have 2nd piece of Xcover 4 SM-G390F (first was change by seller for new one) and had the same problem. First 2-3 days all work perfect.. I have installed my applications, work perfect for two days, but after this... --After wake, display react only in centre area, 1 centimeter from display border no reaction or react on xxx touch. After few seconds (20-30) display react on full range, but with lags... So... I go for support to Samsung official at CZE.
Support tells me, that they don't know about this problem, that I'm 1st who has this problem... And some other bull... about unofficial sell and any other. So I post them IMEI and they let me know, if my distribution is official or not, and we'll see what next. They recomend me to go to service center, where somebody looks on my SM. So I see tomorrow.
ROM - official Android 7 Nougat from start using (not updated from other version)
Deleting apps - no effect
Safe mode - no effect
Factory reset - no effect
Apps to calibrate screen - no effect

Dex Problem

So I was a heavy Dex user on my Note 8 and continue to use it alot on my S10+. Glad to say that many of the issues I was having previously seem to have been addressed (that stupid Shift+Space shortcut especially). But I am having one NEW issue that is a big annoyance.
For some reason, when typing on my USB keyboard in Dex, suddenly it will switch to the phone rather than the attached monitor. I've noticed when this happens that the Google app will open on my phone, and suddenly I am typing there instead of where I intended. It's almost as if I'm triggering an unknown shortcut.
Anybody have some insight or at least have seen this same problem? I'm using the official Samsung Dex Dock.
