Bought this one off ebay but the thing is way too thick and just doesnt perform well with drawing apps like draw something. Can anyone suggest a thinner one trying to find one along the size of the galaxy note

i would actually just try to order an replacement stylus for a Galaxy Note. I bought one from an AT&T store just so I could use some of my drawing apps and I'm loving it.
The notes pen isn't suppose to be able to write on this phone I watched a video on YouTube and he was trying to use the notes pen and it didn't work. I was going to get one till I seen the video

Note works best with no screen protector though or a very hard plastic type of protector not sticky thin ones.

I've used one of those. it's got a big, flat >1/4" disk on it.
VERY awkward.

I didn't play with it long enough to care to find out. It was that "odd" to handle.
Sadly that doesn't make it a "thin" stylus by any means.
I saw one being advertised on barnes and noble's site for the nook that "looked" thin but I haven't checked it out to see whether it was just the photo that made it look that way.
So I found a stylus that has a smaller surface area. Its the same thickness as a regular pen.

If you want to draw on your E4GT you should really give the Jot Mini a try.
http://www.amazon.com/Adonit-Stylus...LTAU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338263247&sr=8-1
It is very accurate, much more so than ANY bubble-tip stylus and it registers very well on the E4GT's screen. I use one myself. It is also nice and small which makes it easy to carry around with your phone.
Has anyone seen or used any good stylus's? I want to get one for drawing apps on my One X. Ive seen the odd one or two but they have like rubber brushes at the end :S. I just like a traditional pen style stylus, if not then something close as.
You can't use a pen stylus with the one x. For the rubber ones I like the wacom bamboo ipad stylus because it has a finer tip than most.

So, basically, any capacitive stylus would work on One X? Because I've tried to use GNote's spen but it didn't worked
I too want a stylus, but they're all the stupid looking round tipped ones that look like pens for special kids

I really love the jot pro. I was part of the kickstarter project. It works great.
I found some hidden settings that I think are stylus/pen related.
The tutorial won't open so I ain't so sure.

Download minimalistic text widget from store.
Put the widget on the home screen and then open it.
Scroll down to Start another activity and press below.
Scroll down through activities down to pen settings and select it, it has the Google system robot icon and press OK.
Go back to the home screen widget and there it is.
It seems that its going to be a later feature and I can guess that HTC will only impliment it once they release an expensive accessory.
HTC sense server for pen apps leads nowhere and the tutorial on how to use it won't open.

this came yesterday for my phone. gorgeous case and the stylus as well. i do not use it but the brief little moment i had playing with the stylus pen was really nice and responsive. here is the link to check it out quite cheap as well guys not bad for £3.50
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270963796836?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
Just got this nipple stylus from ebay its small and compact fits nice and firm in your 3.5mm so it isnt going to slip out anytime soon also it doesnt protrude too much to worry about , aswel audio out isnt affected so you can still play music out of your loudspeaker
The tips made of soft silicon so its really soft and glides across the screen very easily, the phone registers all the touches and swipes without a hitch
Its small size is convenient but if you have large fingers it can be annoying luckily though if u have a 3.5mm adapter lying around anywhere plug it in and your good to go

But metal tip of c pen works pretty well unlike rubber tip.i have to press a bit hard to get it to workn
I dont see any problems in touch test in *#0*# test menu.

A) Take off your screen protector
B) Buy an original C-pen
C) Hope for the better ?
I use no protector
Pen is original with hologram from samsung
Can it be because of firmware or touch driver?

The S3 is simply not optimised for stylii input, unlike the Notes. JB and Project Butter will make response better though.
But line drawing stopping in the middle? That's just weird really. Try updating firmware. Personally I'm using an Adonnit Jot and besides ****ty slow drawing response, I have no issues.
The C in C-Pen stands for crap. I bought 2 of them and both of them don't work properly on the two GS3's in my house. I sent them back and got a refund. I can't believe they did any testing of these on a GS3. Samsung's quality control on their accessories is nonexistent. I haven't bothered with a stylus now as I don't like large tipped ones. My finger is the best pen money can't buy.

Sure. But the S3 lacks the hardware to make full use of the APIs IINM. Plus the screen is simply not quick enough.
What I mean by JB making it better is that when butter makes sure that screen refresh is quick, drawing (with a stylus) should be too.
I have one from China and work like a charm
I've got one (Saumsung sticker) made in Korea, and it stinks.
I wonder if the ones made in Korea are inferior to those made in China.
(when I breath on the tip to warm it up it works a little better)
I figured since the human finger is a lot warmer than a stylus...

It's not becsuse you're warming up the nib. It's becsuse your warm breath is condensing on the colder nib. This increases it's conductivity.... which is everything on a capacitive touchscreen.

Hello everyone!
I just received my Samsung S Pen Holder Kit. It arrived with a stylus that looks to be made for the Galaxy note S3.
The seller on ebay stated that it is fine to use on GN 10.1. It has, or what looks to be a nylon tip and the instructions state that it is non-replaceable.
It works and responds great and the Stylus button responds as well.
My question is, will this tip cause problems on the screen in terms of scratching, gouging, etc?
Thanks.
Mine has the same tip as yours and has not caused any problems so far for me, but I just got mine too .

Ok, i have another 7 days to return the GN back to BB if there is an issue. It writes and feels real good...
The barrel pen feels real good so far, what say you?
I say the same. It feels and writes like a real pen. Glides nice and smooth on the screen. I have used it quite a bit tonight without issue, no scratches, gouges, or marks so far. The pen is weighted just right and the right size for me. Now if only i can just get used to the button and quit taking screen shots while I write.

Ditto, ditto and ditto... too funny on the screen shots... welcome to the club on that one!
I was concerned over the differences on the tips.
I recapped 3 meetings notes tonight and cant see any degradation in terms of screen scratches.
The biggest problem is my wife see's the s-pen and picks it up and starts to use it... not good!
I was just wondering this. That pen was actually made for the Note 5.3". The reason why I'm doubting this is because Sammy did change the tip on the 10.1 pen...its a softer tip. Maybe they changed it because it does scratch? 5.3" users did report some scratching. I think im gonna stop using it and get the real 10.1 S pen holder.
Basically I dont trust it, eventhouhg it looks nice.
This is the real one you should be loking at:

you do know that the note 10.1 stylus (that was included with your tablet) has white nylon nibs as well, right? They came in a little baggie. The nib alone shouldn't scratch it as it's hardness is much lower. get a piece of grit stuck between the nib and screen though and all bets are off.

My 10.1 came with the white nylon nibs as well as the softer black ones. This is day two of my using of the pen kit on my 10.1 and not a signal mark. l always make sure my screen is clean before putting any s-pen to it. If I ever do get a mark I will make sure to post about it.

that's odd. Mine came with five (5) black with white center ones and two (2) completely white ones.
Just checked mine and it indeed came with the Nylon hard tips so scratching shoulnt be an issue. So question now is: Is the old pen to do 1024 levels of pressure? Or is this done on the screen itself?

you can actually put the stylus in the holder backwards so that the button doesn't line up with the button on the holder, it's worked great for me like this for a couple weeks now.

The pen does the pressure sensing... you can test out by holding the tip of the pen real.close to the screen and pressing it with your finger.. the tablet registers touchs depending on how hard you press without touching the screen

There are two versions of this pen....at least there are two part numbers. Anyone know the difference s. I just got the one that was llisted on the. Samsung 10.1 site. One it's ETS110EBEGXAR. The other is ET -S110EBE GSTA
Has anyone heard rather there will be new nibs for this s pen.. I have a wacom intuos 4 pad It came with several different type of nibs. I find the spring loaded ones work best for me with the input setting set to very sensitive With the spring. It really feels very much like a graphics style pencil with very soft lead..
Anyway my questions . have anyone tried the intuios Nibs or if there might be different ones available
guys please they are called NIBS.. Not tips . giggles..
thanks for a reply in advance . i will be picking up the note monday after two failed attempts on getting a good nexus 7 . was not going to get the note because i own the intuos but now i believe this could be awesome for doing on site print/ structural changes.without having to drag out my big notebook and so on...
the intuos/cintiq nibs do not fit the the stock s-pen that comes wit the device. The diameter is too large.

What I really want is a stylus with a tip as slim as what Samsung uses in the Note 2. Unfortunately those will not work.

The only problem is that capacitive touchscreens require input to be the approximate width of a human finger in order to ignore random/incidental touches.

You don't have to activate stylus support. You're still limited to capacitive styli, so the S-Pen will not work for you.

It's possible that the stylus tip isn't wide enough for the screen to recognize it. Capacitive screens are calibrated to recognize touches the approximate size of a human finger, so it would need to be roughly the size of your pinkie finger to register as a valid touch.
