I bought Note 5 and facing issue with s pen...
As u remove s pen it takes 20 - 30 seconds to detect and start working. When contacted to seller he says there is a system update with service center. This update is not available through OTA.
Has anyone faced this issue?
This is second Note 5 from seller and has same issue.
I have the same issue...got a replacement. .even that handset had the same issue...now got DOA for a third handset...let's see how it goes. Even I think it's a software bug as my first phone was made in October and second one in November so different batches. If this 3rd handset also has the same issue then I'll wait out for a firmare update. I've had enough share of my head banging with Samsung service center. In the meanwhile if someone has a solution, please do share. Also just wondering how come this isn't a widespread issue.

Ok guys a little update on spen lag issue.
I finally got my third handset as my previous 2 had serious issues wrt spen lag. This one however is free from all issues and spen response is instantaneous. So my previous theories about spen lag due to software bug stands invalidated.
If anyone can then they must get DOA for a new phone since spen lag is a hardware issue. I'm running all same apps and latest firmware version as previous phones having spen lag.
Hope this info is useful.
Thanks

Hi amberjayna,
After a long fight with seller they have opened third box and luckily no issues in that. I think this issue is on particular batch of production. Croma and Ezone in Mumbai have faced this issue. All phones were Indian made.
Are you from India?
the same s pen detection issue with my note 5
hi guys i am also facing same issue with my note 5 which i bought on 25 nov'15...suggest me what i do?

Yup I'm from India... I don't think it's a batch issue as my first piece had Oct. Manufacturing date.. 2nd one was Nov. And now this third one which is lag free is from same Nov. Batch. So I think it's a random manufacturing defect. One of the technician told me that its a spen sensor alignment issue.

Do check your piece in front of seller and if there is a lag then ask him to change the handset there n then cuz taking DOA is a real pain in the a**.

I have same problem too. S-pen work very well all the time but some time have delay to detection of removing pen. For example some times when the screen off and I remove the pen I should wait 10 or 20 seconds until screen-off meme get start. This happens when I remove pen after hours. Pen always work even when it not detected but the air commend appear with few seconds delay.
Note 5 (SM-N920C)
Sorry for bad English
Found a solution. Uncheck S Pen power saver in settings > s pen. Detection will takes time yet but the pen will work even when does not detected. If the seller don't change your device I think it's only way u have. But it's may reduce your battery life.

I have been experiencing the same problem, its been more than 5 months since I have bought it. Any fix yet? :/

spen detection takes time ......solved
This thing worked for me....
Uncheck S Pen power saver in settings > s pen.
I have a galaxy note 5 that I bought from Seoul. By mistake (my little daughter) was introduced the S-pen vice versa, it remains locked. Of course the sensor was broken. I went in for repair, went well but a period of some time there was a delay in removal pen, sometimes it does not work at all.
How is solving the problem? Rewriting software or what?
Thank you.

Hello All,
My Z1 has recently begun to give off a sort of feedback when it vibrates (via the speakers).
I've ran diagnostic tests on my phone and all tests seem to come back positive and error-free.
However, when I run the Vibration test, sometimes the vibrator works perfectly fine (for about two runs), and then it vibrates with the negative "ZzzzzZzzZ" sound.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue with their Z1? Perhaps someone else (if anyone is experiencing it as well) can further elaborate on the issue. Would really like to get this issue fixed without having to send it back to Sony :crying:
I have the same problem with my Z1 (6903). There's a weird buzzing sound from the speaker right after the vibrator activate. Would love to be able to fix this without sending to Sony as well.

Guys i had same problem few weeks back, then two days back vibrator stopped working and this zzzzzzzzzzzz sound was the only thing i can notice. So went to center and today got it replaced. So no more workarounds for this issue. Go to center and get it replaced.

Ahh, that's unfortunate. I live in the Bahamas, so doing that is pretty difficult for me at the moment. Were you able to go to any Sony store, or did you have to go directly to a service center? How long did you have to wait for your replacement?

I submitted my phone yesterday morning and person in charge told me they will try to do any sort of update first and if still there is an issue, they will replace it. Today morning when i went there, he told issue is not sorted wait for 10 minutes. and then i got new brand replacement in 15-20 minutes..:laugh:
I will suggest you to go directly to service center.

I'm also having the squeaky vibration problem...
Hi, I'm also having the squeaky vibration problem. My phone is about 6 months old and I've been having this noisy vibration squeak for at lease 6 weeks now. I'm running slimkit evo 8.1 on a unlocked bootloader. Before I try to get it fixed by Sony, do I need to reset back to stock and lock my bootloader?
Could anyone give me some pointer to what I could say to get the phone exchanged for a brand new one? I can't be without a phone for 2-3 weeks (estimated service time by resale store).
I have a 5 months old z1, and ive had this issue since the first month i bought it....i guess its a weak point, which is pity for a flag**** phone...

Hi macooz,
Sorry for the late reply. If you are sending it back to Sony, you should always revert back to Stock, as custom firmwares void your warranty.
You could simply tell them that your Vibration Motor is not functioning properly (giving off a squeaky noise instead of an actual vibration) and you would like for it to be either repaired / replaced or have your entire phone exchanged for a new one.

I agree with you. Issue is that because the phone is encased in gorilla glass, it makes it a bit difficult to change any parts on your own. Disassembly videos are available on YouTube, but who wants to take the risk of breaking their phone's casing and then have to replace additional parts?

Hi,
No work around , besides trying to do it yourself and losing your warranty.
Was without my phone for a month and a half. Eventually got it replaced.

Unfortunately, I agree with Soka on this one. I have had the replacement Vibrator for months now, but a little reluctant to open my device as it requires heating and having to purchase new adhesives and so on. I am getting those items in the very near future though, so I'm going to go ahead and do it!
My best piece of advice would be to purchase a replacement back (in case you crack / break your original one while removing it) and replacement adhesives before actually performing the DIY Fix.
Hi there Im facing this problem too, I open a new thread but then @soka pointed me to this one, I record a video from the sound
they had already replace the vibrator and the main board, but the issue still continue, here is the thread I open:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/help/problem-sound-vibrator-t2922957
Hope to get fixed or replaced soon
Well, finally fixed my vibrator problem. I opened the back of my phone using a Hot Air Gun and pry tools, then replaced the vibrator module. Unfortunately, this seems to be the only valid solution.

Hello XDA!
My note 5's screen stopped functioning after it was dropped. I sent it to an authorised Samsung service centre.
Everything is fine, only that I'm observing a pink tint (usually over white) on the screen, when compared to another note 5. Is this normal? Should I raise a complaint regarding the same, or is there a workaround?
Bump!
Come on :/ someone?
No, it's not normal, and I'm fairly sure you realize that. You should see if they will "fix" it again (obviously they didn't fix it right the 1st time)
The pink tint is an older issue with many devices, haven't seen much about it with the Note 5, but it is certainly a defect in my book.

Faulty display. No root cause identified, just a bad panel.
Read rumors it could be the adhesive not curing properly.
I had that issue on like 5 samsung s6s. I kept returning then till i got an acceptable one. Still never got a perfect one.
I just got the note5 last week and the screen is perfect.
Ide send it back.

I moved to the K20 Pro from my old workhorse OnePlus 3T. I have received the phone with a defective digitizer. It is extremely sensitive, and many times taps are registered as swipes. Many times touches are innaccurate. I bought it in India from a site called Flipkart, and they have refused replacement, so I am stuck with it.
I bought this phone instead of OnePlus 7 because it had a headphone jack. But this phone has been a real heartbreak for me. I cannot take the phone to a service center because I cannot prove the problem. This is something you notice only by using for a long time.
I hope a future software update would fix this issue to some extent. I am never buying a Xiaomi again.
If you guys have any suggestions or solutions, please let me know.
Why did Flipkart refuse a return?, That's not acceptable, you need to bang their doors or go to a nearby xioami centre

No third party app. To verify touch screen problem, went to builtin CIT by tapping on Kernel Info in the about screen. Then, to Additional Tools >> Touch sensor. Randomly, taps show up as lines.
Browsing websites or reddit is a pain, as taps become swipes randomly. It does not happen consistently, but often enough that it is a big pain.

It is an India unit under warranty. But I am afraid I won't be able to demonstrate the problem. It is not visible easily unless you use the phone for a long time. It is not reproducible.

Maybe when unit heats up? Try a couple of pubg gaming . Then test.

I have to use apps like Touchscreen Calibration from the play store to make the phone usable. Don't know how this app works, but accuracy improves temporarily.
My next phone will be a OnePlus. I am not coming back to Xiaomi again. MIUI is garbage.

My problem is not just the edges. Its that taps are registered as swipes. You click on a Reddit upvote, the screen just scrolls. You click on a youtube link, the screen scrolls instead of clicking. But it is very random, happens once in a while.
What is your screen protector issue? Fingerprint sensor doesn't work with a screen protector? I had that problem too, had to throw away a new screen protector on day one. But maybe a better quality screen protector would solve the problem. Not tested yet.

Hi, after the March update, I found my Galaxy Note 9 screen turned yellow..
I turned off the screen, unlocked the screen and the screen back to normal..but the yellow screen will reappear...
Some people say it's a hardware problem and replace their LCD, but some people assume that Samsung technicians don't want to get dizzy and just say "you have to replace the LCD"
There is someone who brought this to the Samsung center, the technician just looked without checking further and said "the LCD has been broken" and he fixed it via safe mode (IDK the detail)
And some people solve this problem with FW flash via Odin..
I'm curious, do custom ROM users experience yellow screen too? is this really a hardware problem?
Thanks, and sorry for bad English

Those affected should. Samsung is greedy to force for hardware replacement instead of fixing their software. Samsung hardwares are expensive. In my country screen replacement for note 9 is about half of the second hand value of this phone.

Note 9 yellowish scree
hi I've faced the yellowish screen problem recently. My phone is 1 year and 7 months old. I visited samsung service center in my city in India. 1st they told me it was your fault that because of your mishandling this has happened and some brainless person told me to go for replacement which cost around 21000 rs(300$) in India. But then i asked them to find any dent, crack or even a scratch on body or glass if its mishandling. Then i showed them this article. https://www.sammobile.com/news/galaxy-note-9-march-2020-security-update-broken-screen/
Manager head technician accepted the fact that this wasn't my fault any kept phone with him. After 20-25 days now i have my phone with screen replaced without giving a single penny. Samsung is such greedy company that pushes such faulty updates and loot consumers like they haven't looted us enough with such heavy priced phones.

Then i showed them this article. https://www.sammobile.com/news/galaxy-note-9-march-2020-security-update-broken-screen/
Manager head technician accepted the fact that this wasn't my fault any kept phone with him. After 20-25 days now i have my phone with screen replaced without giving a single penny. Samsung is such greedy company that pushes such faulty updates and loot consumers like they haven't looted us enough with such heavy priced phones.

Which city ?.
Because in Bangalore they kept for my phone for a week and returned it without doing anything.
Same issue not a single scratch, dent or bump. Mint phone. But Audio Dead.
They told me to my face and in writing that no Note 9 users have reported any problems after the update.
I told them to visit XDA and their own company community pages but they ignored me.
They demanded that the only way they would help is if I paid 26500 to replace the board. ANd even that would take weeks. Due to present situation.
Another guy in another city was quoted 18K for his Note 9 main board. So it seems they can charge what they want.
There is no fixed rate. They cant even match the rates on their own web site.
Lets just say you got very lucky or you have good contacts.

I am in Surat. I didn't have any contacts in Samsung service center. I went there and requested to look upon my problem. 1st the illiterate girl at the desk ignored me but when the manager/chief engineer came to know about the problem he peacefully heard me. I used my "Being A Doctor trump card" to further make him believe that i was no joking and lying. And ultimately I was lucky. Though i was very much prepared to go in consumer court if that failed.
They just returned my phone and told me to come back when I was willing to pay 26500 for a new board.
I have started a new Face Book Page Called Samsung India worst company.

did not work! can you give more information !?
Looks weird but its working for me, tap to switch on always on display then open the phone with fingerprint or other methods, screen becomes normal !!
So I opted to fix my own phone.
WHat I found was that the over heating had cause some microscopic balls of lead to have melted during the over heating and these were all over the main board. I suspect some got under the Amplifer 98512 IC. So I purchased the part form china for 2$. Purchased a microscope and fix it myself.
I also cleaned the main board in ultrasonic machine to make sure all the small balls were dislodged. Its been over a week and my phone is working fine.
I suspect if you try all the software options and nothing works. Open the back cover and look for these tiny balls. If you see them clean the board and put it back it may start working. If it has shorted something off course you will see the damage. May times just a clean and re-seating the flex cable solves the problem.
I wonder if Samsung return your old board if they charge you for a new one.

Hi , i also have a screen problem with my Galaxy Note 9 Edge but i don't know if it is the same as the above problems. The problem started when i turned on the "always display on" option and set the clock to orange. I don't know if this is a coincidence but as soon as i turned that option 2/3s of my screen turned to orange as seen on the attached picture. I tried reverting the options but with no luck. Anyone have any idea what's going on? Did i messed some some settings? I have the latest update installed.
Finally yellow screen fixed in 13 July 2021 update
From what I have heard if you use the gesture navigations instead of the on-screen button navigation method. You should not experience the green screen issue.

Hi, after the March update, I found my Galaxy Note 9 screen turned yellow..
I turned off the screen, unlocked the screen and the screen back to normal..but the yellow screen will reappear...
Some people say it's a hardware problem and replace their LCD, but some people assume that Samsung technicians don't want to get dizzy and just say "you have to replace the LCD"
There is someone who brought this to the Samsung center, the technician just looked without checking further and said "the LCD has been broken" and he fixed it via safe mode (IDK the detail)
And some people solve this problem with FW flash via Odin..
I'm curious, do custom ROM users experience yellow screen too? is this really a hardware problem?
Thanks, and sorry for bad English

If it's an LCD display they don't just turn yellow.
Flash it back to the firmware it was running on.
Rule #1 if the phone is running fast and stable, leave it be.

Actually I faced the same issue with my K20 pro. Nothing worked for me , power button didn't respond and I took it to service center, surprisingly there it turned on without giving to them, Even though It's working fine now, I gave them to check for the black screen issue, and they replied they didn't find any log for that and even they answered the last used app on my device. From that I concluded it's a software issue.
Again till now, I didn't face that issue. If I'm wrong please correct me.

There might be many possibilities, but did they repaired it somehow, or just checked and gave back to you.
If it's given back to you without doing any repair of any kind. Please be very cautious, this devices will go black eventually. Please make a action as soon as possible before same happened again.
You can search and read other users review as well. This phone manufacturing must have a serious manufacturing defect that all users will experience some day

That's great, Could you please let me know how that software issue got solved.
Currently my phone's screen is black. I can't use it.
I do know its working fine by the sound of charging plug in and out and calls coming.
I m frustrated and going for a IPS LCD display worth 3500 rs since amoled will cost around 9000
This is my last try to solve it if I can.
So please share your experience how it was solved

Frankly I did nothing.
It worked fine itself. I got scared to switch to custom roms coz I thought it as a hardware issue, later came to know as a software issue. I heard that some people had fod issues with miui 12 after screen replacement. I can't guide you in this case and please do proper research before spending money.
Thanks

I can't confirm this as I didn't face that. I read this on XDA. I'll pin the threat if I find that.

Ohh ok got it.
You are talking about fingerprint will not work on IPS LCD display, yes that I do know.
But what options do I have?
It's either 3500 with no fingerprint or 9000 with fingerprint.
I can use other ways to unlock so it's kind of fine with me
