S pen sensitivity... - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey guys I just got my note 2 today and have been messing around with the S pen. Does anyone else notice that when pressing buttons on the screen to open apps or things in apps etc that it is not always responsive unless you hit it at the perfect angle? Also when I write normally i kind of write more at a sideways angle towards the screen but it seems to not register very well like this so I have to write more vertical towards the screen. Is there any way to fix these issues or is that just how it is at this time? Also i feel like if I write too lightly it doesn't register very well when writing. Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity or am I the only one who thinks this? Lastly, if i touch the screen with my palm it makes a mark in s note i thought it was not supposed to do this or let your finger write when the s pen is out. How do I set this?

I have a similar issue where i seem to have to press hard to get a reaction, especially the app drawer icon.

I notice you have to hit dead on which makes sense. This isn't a pencil or pen where you can write slanted and the ink still touch the paper or what not. But rather the "ball" of the s pen is where your main contact should be. Takes getting used to but what doesn't? Pen works great once you learn how it works

I had to exchange my S-pen 3 times due to sensitivity issue! One of them was way too sensitivity, I wasn't even touching the screen and I could write on S-note... Store manager thought that was part of the Note 2's new feature... lol
Even after the exchange of S-pen I was still having little issues with it, and I ran across a thread about slamming the S-pen on the ground. I know it sounds bizarre but it actually worked! I didn't believe it at first but now my s-pen works flawless... so weird. :silly:

lol like throwing it or just slamming it? and yeah i figured it would just take getting used to I just wanted to make sure it wasn't just my pen. So is there really no settings to change for it though??
Also funny question... does it matter which way it is held? Like when I was first holding it you would press the button with your thumb however you could also hold it so you would press it with your index finger. Does it matter? Is it made to work better one way?

Take a closer look at the tip of the S-pen. It's actually slightly spring loaded! I discovered this from an early review video I watched before I purchased mine. I believe that the tip has to be pressed hard enough to slightly retract in order to produce a mark. Writing with the pen at an angle may not be doing that.

Mom said don't smack
But I just tried it and the pen is working 95% better. I don't know if it will stay this way but it's working pretty well (for now at least).

stupid but it works for me.

Hey I have the same problem with you but I have solved it in a stupid but effective way. I open the back case and press it, that's it the pen sensitivity back to normal.... lol try it easy and effective....

The S pen can be too sensitive, so you have to adjust its potentiometer. Yes, you heard that right.Just pop the button cover off by simply using a razor blade or something really thin, the cover should pop immediately. Then, you have to use a small flat head screwdriver and turn the screw clockwise. This will adjust the S Pen sensitivity. If you want to make it more sensible, then you have to screw counterclockwise. You should adjust it until it no longer has a problem. This fix has worked for a lot of people, so it should work as a general fix. If you still have problems with the S pen, then you should get in touch with the dealer that gave the phone to you and get the S pen switched because it is faulty.

[Q] S Pen - very pushy

Hey Guys,
I know that most of the questions I read were about the S Pen being too sensitive. But in my case, I feel the S Pen is not as sensitive as it should be!
When I put the pen in the slightest contact with the screen and try to scribble, nothing comes up. I feel I have to push the pen a bit more strongly to get some writing on the screen - and that takes away from the sensitivity of the S pen which Samsung brags about.
Is anybody else facing this problem, where you feel the S pen has to be pushed too hard for it to start writing on the screen? In my opinion, as soon as the pen comes in contact with the screen (even the slightest contact), it should start writing.
Thanks guys.

I am having this issue a little now. At first the s-pen was fine and performed as expected but now it seems like it needs more pressure to register scren taps etc although the pointer shows as normal whent he pen is close to the screen
This is normal in S note and some other apps where pressure sensitivity is needed. Samsung has designed it in that way.
Same here, first day the pressure needed was very low, now I need a lot of more and the traces of the pen have like 2 options, little press (more than before) and a lot of pressure for thick lines, nothing in the middle.
And I can corroborate this because with my other wacom pens of tablet pcs doesn't have the problem of the samsung now.

read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1925212 Apparently there are two adjustable potentiometers beneath the S pen switch which can be adjusted for increasing or decreasing sensitivity of the pen . most people including me are suffering from greater sensitivity . I adjusted the potentiometer to get rid of this problem.

The thing is that my pen can write with slight pressure but a little more than before, but the real problem seems that the middle one levels are lost and were working the first day.

S pen false touching in certain areas

I've had the phone a few hours and already I've noticed the pen "touches" the screen while not actually touching in certain areas...
Like ill just be hovering over parts of the screen such as the L area of the keyboard and it triggers a touch...so when hovering quickly over the screen random things get pressed.
Am i alone or is this a wide spread problem?

I'm not finding the screen calibration option on my Note 2. Any hints as to where it can be found?
supposedly that means your pen is too sensitive? they discuss this in the international thread. under the button? on the s pen supposedly you can turn it one was to lessen sensitivity and the other to increase?
went to the sprint store and tried their display phones... their styluses worked just fine on my phone and my stylus screwed around in their phone... i brought it to their atention and they should be replacing it when they have parts or a new phone come in.
mine is doing it. too. It seems to do it only as I bring the pen near the screen where it justrecognizes it. It'll start registering and unregustering the pen causing a doubke tap that zooms or acts as touches. the gnote 10.1 pen works better with it. its worse on the edges. same on my gn101. edges are wonky.
i had a test with a coworker's gn2. the problem is not as prevalent with his and didn't happen enough to be a problem. mine stutter touches as i come in to the "zone." if i hang out about .5" area i get the stutter. going .25" or closer and it works fine. his pen worked better with mine but still had some stuttering, just not as much. i didn't test my pen on his note. i should do that next.
just tested it and it is the pen. it stutter taps on his. so either i get sprint to replace it or just buy an aftermarket one later.
holy smokes - quick search finds the stylus to be $30! contacting sprint soon.
more testing - seem that my pen is too sensitive for the phone, but it works better than the gn101's pen on the tablet. it allows finer lines with less breaking up when drawing. on the phone, the gn101's works perfectly with not false touches or stuttering. now i wish i could increase the sensitivity on my gn10.1 and decrease it on the gn2.
i called sprint and the only option is to replace the entire phone as they don't have replacement styli.
and now the solution to the problem (very low tech and brutish): slam the thing on a hard surface. not the tip! i just hit it a few times on a stack of paper and it works perfectly now.

still waiting for the sprint store to get replacements of any kind so I decided to try the second fix "the potentiometer one"... it worked perfectly! this should be made into a sticky for future owners who have this issue
btw the"left" potentiometer is the one closest to the tip

[Q]S-Pen

I got my phone a while ago and I haven't really messed with the S-Pen. Today I decided to use it. It'll keep pressing buttons without the tip of the pen touching the screen. Is that normal? When jotting down notes, it'll write without touching the screen as well. You'll see random lines connecting each word I write. I did a search and I read that I should just get a new s-pen. Will I need to trade in my entire phone? or will they just replace the S pen?
This is a feature of the S Pen. This feature is called "Air View".
You can choose options for "Air View" and turn off "Air View" in the Settings > System > S Pen > Air View.
Otherwise you will get used to it. Just a little sensitive when the S Pen is barely hovering over the screen.

Sounds like an over sensitive spen. Common problem. Two options get new one from samsung/tmobile. Or you can try throwing the pen on the ground on its side, badically the magnet inside gets stuck in the 'pushed' position.

I was setting up a new note 2 this afternoon and this happened to me as well. It was definitely an over-sensitive pen. I ended up clicking the buttons a few times and it seemed to clear up the oversensitivity. Try that and see.
yeah I've heard just dropping the pen a few times will fix it

Do I have a bad digitizer or S-Pen, or something else?

Hey all, thanks for any input.
So to start out, I'm on a AT&T Note II. Using the phone without the S-Pen works fine, I can push here, push there, push everywhere without any "extra" pushes happening. The problem is when I pull out the S-Pen and start using it, if I'm hovering about the screen, not touching it, it acts like I'm clicking/pressing on things. It will also make it so that if I'm hovering and move the pen, the desktop changes to the next one as if I'm swiping. It's gotten so bad that I can't even use the S-Pen as it makes it unreliable. I'm running a 3.0.36 Perseus alpha27 kernel, rooted, at 4.1.2 Android version.
It seems like it's a bad S-Pen but I wasn't sure if that's possible.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Hmmm think I got it "fixed" I read where other people were having the problem and tried wacking the S-Pen on a table a few times and that fixed the ghost pressing. Lo and behold I did that and it fixed the problem. Something in the Pen must get stuck..
Yes happend to me n I hit the table with my spen tip hitting table 3 or 4 times, seems like it would be bad for it but fixed the problem

Thats a easy "fix" +1
Mine did that, then I got a replacement s Pen and it worked perfectly.
If you hover over the screen and then press the tip of the pen you will notice it registers as a click. So while it might seem like the screen is registering the clicks it's actually the tip of the pen. Sometimes this gets stuck a little up or a little out of alignment or whatever. A few good wacks will restore it to the correct position most of the time.
-- Note II, TapaTalk II--
Yep, simply bounce it off of the table a few times and it will be good to go. Been there, done that.
Smacking the pen and messing with the settings inside the pen are only temporary "fixes" I had this issue with my original S-Pen.. Went to the At&t warranty & claims store and they gave me a new pen.. YMMV .. New pen has been perfect. The tip on the new one seems a bit firmer than the OE one.. I'm guessing the flimsy spring is causing the problems

Looks like I'm the first moron to get their S-pen stuck. Yay.

No idea what happened. I just slid my s-pen into the body, no problem, but the cap didn't click back out past the o-ring to be flush with the body. It now sits in the body just past the o-ring/seal and will not come out. No idea WTF to do, but this is WAY worse of an issue than people putting the pen in backward on the 5. This wasn't avoidable. Pushing it in further, there's no feedback click and there's not enough force in the spring action to move it back out past the o-ring/seal. Not fun. Kinda pissed.
Any idea on how to coax it back out without scratching or gouging the finish anywhere?
*Update*
Using a thumbtack I very carefully poked the seal all the way around with the side of the point and was able to lightly pry it in a corner to get the end of the pen past the seal. Everything is fine now. Everything still works.
Note to everyone, it takes almost no pressure at all to get the pen seated properly, if you push it in too far (because you have fat fingers and you can't tell how far you're going past your case, like me) it can get stuck on the seal. Lightly press the pen back in and when it clicks, it's seated, stop pushing.
Don't know what o-ring or seal you are referring to. The s-pen chamber is sealed off. I doubt the pen docking hole is sealed itself since you can use the pen underwater anyway. Also, stop pushing when you feel the pen click back into place? Okay, but then you have to push fairly hard to retract the clicky pen top. All of that pressure is trying to push the pen further into the phone first, and since it can't go anywhere, the pen top retracts instead. I'm not following what you're saying at all.
This happened to me too. Had to use the tip of a pin to get the S-Pen button to pop back out again. Not sure why it happened, but there's a big YouTube video on this exact issue with the Note 7. Mine happened ironically after I did a water test in the bathroom sink to test the water resistance of both the phone & the pen. It passed the test - just under a minute under a couple inches of water.
What gives?
Just wanted to say this happened to me too, also after getting it wet. I had to use a razor blade to pry it out l, luckly I didn't scratch anything though.

My bad, I'm talking about the new ridge that blocks the pen from being able to go in backwards. It's got a rubberized finish at that ridge and that is where the click tip got hung up.

One phone does not make an "issue." If it's an issue you'll by joined by others in short order. Until then your phone or S Pen has a singular defect. But thanks for queuing the OMG! crowd so this thread can grow needlessly to multiple pages like the RAM and glass scratching threads.

By worse of an issue I meant that putting then s-pen in backwards problem with the Note 5 was as simple as not putting the s-pen in backwards... That's a user error situation. If more people start having the same issue as I had with the Note 7, during normal use, that's an absolutely true statement for me to have made. And 3 people have apparently had the same thing happen to them thus-far. Maybe it's not something that will effect everyone. Just sharing my personal experience.
I apologize if it seemed I was aiming at stirring things up, as tone isn't something one can convey well using text. That was not my intent. I just suspected that this might be something we see start popping up a bit in the forum. For $850+ USD it's not something I expected to happen and my initial shock may have weighted my words/tone incorrectly.

The clicky button on top of the S Pen can sometimes get stuck outside of the Note7, too. Take yours out and instead of a quick click to lock it down, click and hold for a few seconds then let go. It will stay down and you'll have to fiddle with it to get it back up. I was able to replicate this a few times yesterday, but it doesn't seem to be doing it now. Hopefully it stays like that.
Wow.
Im sorry to hear all that. I heard of the note 5 people putting there sitck in backwards. I had the ntoe 3 and note 4 edge, never try to put my stick in backwards ever.
But this is just putting it in just a little to good lol...
I do worry that the clicker on the spend will go out it and it will be hard to remove but never thought it would just get stuck from pressing it in to hard.
This is way worse than note 5 reverse spen issue. Anyone in right mind wouldn't push pen in reverse as nib will be facing opposite which fingers should know as reflex when sliding in and to actually get to jam force needs to be applied. Note 7 stuck spen problem is like it happened even when one put it back as one is supposed to put it back. Hope Samsung will release bug fix firmware patch soon
too be honest people hardly use the s pen

Speak for yourself... Most people I know bought the note specifically for the S-pen... Once they started using it it became second nature.
Just because you don't use it much does not a mean others don't...

This sucks. I hope it is just yours (sorry, I'm not sorry) and not a wide spread issue. One way to avoid this issue is to click the top of the spen before inserting it into the device. I know you shouldn't have to, but its just a suggestion.

wut? I use it all the time. Its better than your finger for almost anything. I find it more comfortable than my finger, even when swiping.
I haven't had a Note since my N3. Have the capacitive buttons always been responsive to the SPen or is this new? I dont think my N2 or N3 were.
I find it extremely amusing that every year Note users have to have their annual "Stuck Pen" thread.
Also, if you hold the phone with the pen slot facing away from you, and tap the other bottom corner on your hard with sufficient force, the pen will come out. Just so you don't have to dig your pen out.

Same issue here the pen's spring gets stuck and then you cant remove it from phone. Get a new phone they didn't wan to replace the pen only.
