Ok im new to this place....just had a thought that could air gesture from s4 work in note....coz air view form note2 did
If yes please tell how:fingers-crossed:
No. The Note's screen is different than the S4 one so it dont recognize a finger without touching it. If you want something like Air Gesture, pull out your S pen, grab a piece of tape and put it on the end of your S Pen (exerting some force). Hover your S Pen over the screen and see the magic. And please, use the Q&A section
Lol sorry for posting in wrong section
Btw Im aware about airview just had a thought about air gesture :thumbup:

Hey I have read about putting a tape on tip of s pen in some sections on XDA. can u tell i detail how it works for note n7000?
If u have any review video then share link
This is a two part question.
Firstly does anyone know if there is a way to calibrate the s-pen. Mine seems ever so slightly off when writing as I would with a normal pen (on a slight angle).
I also have the bamboo feel but that is even worse (around 2-3 mm off).
Next question is are there any other s-pen out that like the bamboo feel? I like the bigger size of it as it's more comfortable for writing with but accuracy seems to be the issue with some third part pens. I'm surprised there issue nothing from Samsung already for the note 5. I understand there are the pen holder or the bt pen but those are for older devices so I'm not sure how accurate they are or compatible.

Can you make sure that there is no cover when trying, as magnetic covers or even flip covers cause the S-pen to be inaccurate.
in older models, magnet closure cases made a huge difference.

Try typing in *#0*# in your dialer. This will bring up the integrated hardware test. There should be one for S-Pen (not touch) and try it on that screen. If it does not pass the test, then you are probably looking at a hardware failure/malfunction.
Broke my S pen when my phone fell. Any good sites to get a replacement?
Try spen with eraser.

Amazon is where I would go, cheaper deals else where could be sketchy.

Good information to know just in case .... one never knows when 'Ol Murphy will decide to put his most famous law into action. ... " Anything that can go wrong usually will."
I know this is an old post, but I am trying to find a gold s-pen. Samsung doesn't sell them on their site. To get mine warranties will take over a month. I have seen them on Amazon but really no where else. Wondering if anyone has tried them and any issues. Where do you recommend?

Did you manage to find one? Amazon is $20+, lots of cheap ones from China for $5.
Found one on Amazon that comes in Samsung packaging. WORKS LIKE ORIGINAL

For what it is worth...
I have both a NOTE 3 and a NOTE 5
The 5 I only bought recently and the Stylus hole was blocked and there was some weird other stylus somehow wedged into it.
The previous owner knew he was selling me a duffer but there we go.
Anyway, I managed to get it out and I bought a new stylus for it, but the bloody thing was not quite right... It was something like about 1.5mm off down and right. I am very very good with sizes and so trust me, its more than 1mm but not quite 2mm but thats by the sideways... I just assumed that the bloody thing needs calibrating to this stylus.
Anyway, it was some time later that I thought... Why not try the note 3 and 5 styluses on each other... They both work just fine, but guess what? It was not the screen that needed calibrating at all? - the stylus is to blame.
The Note 5 stylus is wonky just the same on the Note 3 and the Note 3 Stylus is perfect on the Note 5
If only I could swap them over?
But there you go... Maybe its a new stylus or a replacement stylus you should be looking for and not a calibration of the screen?
yeah mines a few mm's off as well. its very annoying.
There is also a waycom test in the integrated hardware test menu (this would be good for seeing how your s-pen registers on the screen)
Also you may want to try another N5 s-pen (if you know someone that has one see how it does, the one you have may have a defect)
You can take off the cover on the button of the spen and there's a tuning adjuster under it. Factory is set to be off a little.

I tried Note 4 stylus on Note 5 and it felt like a Note 7 stylus on Note 7. Note 5 stylus is useless. in comparison.
So stupid that companies still make Note cases with friggin battery clips on them. But then again there seems to be a fair amount of people who buy these Note devices but rarely use the S-Pen which is bizarre to me.
Hi, sorry for a silly question, but ... 'm currently using a simple $5 stylus, how does S-pen differ? (considering they say it's the major point of Note8 vs S8+ and it comes at $90 higher price, at least in my country)
My assumptions:
* sharpness
* durability / build quality
* can be carried with the phone inside it
* integration (I think it launches some kind of note pad when ejected with turned off screen? not sure)
anything above incorrect, anything besides the above?
Thank you
There are software features to go along with the s-pen, my favorite being smart select. It can be used to select text and translate it as well as cutout a specific part of an image. I like to use that feature to make other pics.
The spen to me is way better the any 3rd party stylus could be.
1. The spen is always there. It slides into the phone and no new to look for it.
Its wireless touch. Which means you can hover over the screen and do different things. Like translate, mark highlight.
The tip is smaller then most 3rd party. Letting you see more of what your doing.
The screen off memo works great. I ise it all the time. Pull the spen out and the screen goes black. Write your note then out it back in and it save. If you need to see the note again or add to it. Tap it from the lock screen or pull the spen out again.
Has a button on the side which can controller things like earse or go back.
Its has touch. So if you apply more or pess pressure it can simulate that and drawings.
Of you can go to a store and play around with the spen.
To me its great
Pixel level precision, not very important for everyday task but once you want to do real work then there is no substitute.
I tried plastic and rubber tipped pens before: Out of 3 stylus I originally purchased, I lost 2 within few weeks and I know the last one is somewhere in the house, but no idea exactly where. And even when I had them, they were never with me, when I needed them. I use Note phones for most of the last 4 yrs and have not lost one s-pen, it's always with the phone and it will sound warning if pen left behind. Also the precision, functionality and extra programs that come along are unique to Note series. I use my phone 24/7 and s-pen about 50% of the time (it's like a mouse on my computer) and at this point I don't care much for any other phone outside of Note series. Besides, it just happens Note 8 is one the best phones money can buy right now. Now, I don't know if $90 is a big deal for you, it won't make any difference for me and I can save much more elsewhere. BTW if you're on a tight budget, maybe you should look at phones like Blu, you save much more than $90 and they almost as good. If it wasn't for s-pen I would probably look at them closely myself.
Thanks a lot everyone
Yea it probably isn't a big deal, just wanted to know what is it about when deciding

If you are using a case with a magnet in the clasp, it will interfere with the S-Pen detection in that area. Try removing any cases you use and see if that helps. (Not sure, you may have to leave the phone for a while after removing the case).
I have gelatin screen protctor
Screen protector wouldn't cause this - are you using a case/wallet/pouch of any kind? If so, try using the phone without it for a while.
Yes you right when I remove my mobile form my case the s pen worked great
So the problem from my cover ??? Becaouse have magnet ??
yes. the magnet is the cause.
So this case is dangerous on my mobile ???

Not really, the s-pen uses magnetic fields to power the circuits in the pen and to communicate with your phone, so any magnet will interfere with that and cause issues.
Glad that fixed it for you. I suggest looking for an alternative case - see some of the recommended ones on the forums here. Personally, I stick to the offical Samsung ones, or recognised brands like UAG etc. I always stay clear of cases with magnets for Note phones, as this has always been an issue. Case manufacturers should be aware of it by now! The only place a magnet is acceptable is if it's on the back side of the phone away from the screen.
thank u very much to help me . But u know iam very angry becaouse I bought note 9 because note 9 with exynos is bad with gaming really not good this mean mobile = 1000$ cant working good with gaming

Hello friends:
Hope to find a solution to this problem...
So... a friend asked me to check her phone (Galaxy Note 9) because the S pen wasn't working properly. It was possible to use the commands when pressing the S pen button, but whenever I tried to use the S pen to navigate through the screen it was completely useless, the screen doesn't responded to the S pen.
I have a Galaxy Note 8 and I tried the Galaxy Note 9's S pen on it and worked as charm.
I did try these solutions:
1.- Soft Reset
2.- Reboot in Safe Mode
3.- Reset S Pen
None of them worked
HELP!!! I really wanted to impress my friend she's georgeus AF!!
Try the instructions here https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01001835/#change-the-s-pen-color
As a side note, don't rely on fixing her s-pen to impress her, this could just lead to you becoming tech support for her.
Just be you and you'll be fine.
Of course, if being tech support for people is your thing, then go get your girl!
Does Note9 have a screen protector on? Some cheap quality screen protectors/films cause this issue. Also, check if she already has a S pen in the note! (she might be testing your tech skills) default Note setting will not allow you to use second pen if one is already in the Note
I already tried to reset the S pen, it didn´t work

Perhaps that's the reason but I'm not going to tear up her screen protector... the S pen that she have is the first one that come with the Note 9

Hey go to display settings and enable touch sensitivity. Just try doing so :fingers-crossed:
if note 9 is in a protective case, remove it. magnet case cause problems with s pen functionality.
Go to a test mode and try again. If not working then there is a problem with digitizer and possibly service required. Try hard reset before sending for repair

Exactly,
The magnet is the problem, also wit a cutter you can remove the magnet from the case
