Change S-Pen screen off notes color - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

So in case anyone was wondering, if you switch your spen for a different color one, after a little bit, your device will recognize the new color of the pen for screen off notes. I have the yellow spen in my black note 8, and sure enough it writes in yellow now instead of the grey it was before

You can also go into your settings and change the default color the s-pen writes in using screen off notes.

This only applies to making the SNotes black instead of the signature color - the offscreen note color is still only two options - White on black screen or Signature color on black screen.

Love this feature! Brown writing is a bit tricky to read on black background though lol

I got this from Samsung website at 14.99 so your best option night be order online to local address (friend or relative) and get them to send it you. Better than the non original ones from other sites?

Funny cos I actually find the brown on black quite nice especially when you then save the off screen memo it saves in brown, a colour I cant actually find on the color palet so I easily differentiate which part of the memo I took "off screen" vs the part I wrote while unlocked!

[Q] White or Black Optimus 4X?

I'm going to buy Optimus 4X and I'm confused whether to buy white or black version.
Are they equal in quality? What about scratches and dust? On which color they tend to be more visible?
Id go with the black. You can see black border around screen on white, not visible on black. Plus you could always get a case to change colour later or buy a different colour battery cover, so just personal preference really. Either way you won't be disappointed, great phone.

There is a black border, but I have a white device, and it is not annoying at all. I wouldn't change it for black one though, but both colours look great on this phone, and I like the textured back; I have the phone for 3-4 months and not a single scratch!

[Q] Green Line along the edge of the screen?

hmm,after a month of usage,just today i noticed a very thin green line along the left side of the screen,only(mostly) visible on white color background...I did alot of surfing today which of course the browser and the sites mostly have white background,maybe thats why i noticed it today and not before...
anyways,its only on the left side of the screen and looks like it is at the just beginning of the pixels and its very hard to see,but it is there...
i did a very little net search and it says it is normal due to our screen matrix,but im asking just to be sure
thx
Doesn't sound normal to me. Any chance of a pic? I'd recommend taking it for repairs before it gets any worse.

after some research on this forum i got this from a senior member on another thread about the amoled:
"It caused by pentile matrix used in none plus samoled screens. Each pixel is made of two sub pixels one green and one either blue or red. The green sub pixel is always on the left side so the left side of the screen will always have that green line."
I should of checked before making this thread,sorry...anyways looks like it is a an amoled feautre
Yep I have it also...Noticed while back but doing a simple google search found out it was common thing

I only just noticed this today by looking hard and it still doesn't bother me lol.

so,i took an extensive coffee break today and went to my local official samsung retailer shop,where i bought my phone since i wanted carrier free(Sim-free) device...i checked the displayed s3mini there and it has the same very thin green line on white background(i used the stock browser)...Also the manager was kind enough to open a new s3mini right out of the box,we put the battery,powered on and same story with the thin green line on the left side of the display...(ahh the 4.1.1 ripple effect,i miss it since its gone on the 4.1.2 upgrade
Anyways sometimes i get carried by this peculiar stuff,so from there i went to my carrier(VIP) shop and checked the displayed unit there and of course it has the same ultra thin green line
So,its an amoled feature,nothing to freak out...its very very hard to notice,especially if you are outdoors where there is plenty of daylight
cheers
Wow now I can see it also on mine but if u had not sad anything I would not have noticed!

Sorry m8,my intentions were not to spoil the experience with our phones...Maybe i should just delete the post..But i think people should be informed about what they are buying...its not a big deal anyways
Update your subject title with (solved) so it doesn't seem like an ongoing problem :-$

Solution to the Green Line on the Left Side
On your Galaxy Device:
Go to: Settings >Display >Screen Mode
Under Screen Mode:
Scroll down and you shall see Advanced Options.. In that make Green 0(zero)
This will get rid of that Green line.. The same method will work for any RGB Line that occurs on the side of your Galaxy Device

[POLL] Which Galaxy Note 4 color will you get?

LOL, thank you borijess. My mistake. Corrected.
have not seen one in hand, but from the pics, this time white gives a classic look.
White makes the color of the screen pop.
Probably should add 'Undecided' as an additional option ... I think a lot of people are still thinking through black or white.
I'll most likely choose black, because it seems to stand out better when laying around, which would make it some what easier to find. And then again I could buy a white one then slap a black otterbox on it...right..
Probably I'll pick black. I like darker colors more. My Note 2 is also grey.
This is a really hard decision. Black and white both look really good. I can't make up my mind.
one cant really go wrong with either color black or white. still an awesome phone

Yeah, cool thing about the black it's the fact that the sensors are "hidden". But I still undecided (even voting black ☺).

Lighting in the videos makes it look black especially in the android authority ones. But ask anyone who has seen it in real life and they'd tell it's grey. Somewhat similar to the Note 3 in greyness except the back cover of the note 3 was actually black compared to this one.

Flamingo Pink
Prism Blue S10+! Usually had black on prior devices...
There is a prism green here in the UK for one. And I believe there is a sort of pink shade for the + model in some markets.
Edit: beaten.

Torn between Prism Black and Prism Blue myself... blue looks awesome in renders, but IRL has a faint hue of violet. Black looks boring in renders, but looks quite acceptable IRL. Help plz.
Black, I ordered a phone that's going in a black case, so I didn't need pretty. ?

Black background notes

Hey, how to write notes on black background in the app? I mean in the same way as in turned screen off. I think white pen on black background looks better than normal way, black pen on white paper.
Download "Snotes" the original note program from earlier models of the Samsung Note series. It let's you pick background color and what not. A lot of people prefer it to Samsung Notes , so give it a try.
