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

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.
Okay. Now let me explain this a little more. I know that the s pen on my phone works. ( tested it on my friends note 4, used another note 5 s pen that i know works) well none of the s pens work on my current note 5. I have searched and this seems to be a unique problem?
All of the s pen settings are on. I have 5 1.1 android version. Idk how to post pics of everything as i am a new user. Thank you!
Also i already did a factory reset.
If your phone is new you can exchange it

I have the same device and installed MM XSG version, all work fine.
My Note 5 respond very fast and my screen don´t have any issue.
I upgrade via Odin and then make a factory reset for sure.

Hi All

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.

Hello,
I havent' posted anything here in years, so I'm out of touch with the latest on this forum. Ever since I got my Note 8 (International unlocked dual-SIM model), my GPS stopped working after the first week. I know this is a Samsung thing, so I lived with it.
Now my accelerometer stopped working mysteriously, and I'm already on the latest firmware which should have fixed the GPS issue (but it didn't).
When I do the hardware test (*#0*# from the dial screen) it shows no movement in the roll, pitch or yaw axis and the same for the magnetometer). I've done numerous reboots, and toggles of the auto-rotate feature of the phone, but the issue is still the same. Other than a factory reset, what other troubleshooting steps can I take?
Perhaps there is a toggle in Developer Options or in Quick Settings that you accidentally switched?
I'm saying this because Stock Android 12 has a "Sensors off"-QS Toggle that disables sensors on the phone ^^
But... I don't remember the Galaxy Note 8's software having such a button...but just throwing this out there
Thanks for your reply. I had checked for such an option. I even disabled Developer Options altogether.
I did the Samsung hardware test (*#0*#), and neither the accelerometer nor the compass moved.
