Does anyone have this problem? I think it's only on the newer devices because my old Note 10.1 didn't have this issue. In addition to being a tight fit in the slot, the pressure sensitivity didn't work very well until I sent it back to Samsung for them to adjust the potentiometer. The pressure sensitivity now works great but it's still a tight fit in the slot.
This is affecting the S Pen sensitivity! The lines I draw are skipping instead of having continuous pressure. It was the same problem which was the reason I sent my S Pen to Samsung to get the potentiometer tweaked. After it was fixed, the S Pen worked perfectly. The force required to remove the S Pen from its slot must've messed with the nib. It's happening again!

I installed temple run recently on my note and I noticed the accelerometer wasn't working well. Any way to fix this sirs?

Recalibrate the accelerometer. The option should be somewhere in the system settings, depending on which rom you use. Put the phone screen up on a flat surface and press calibrate. Should do the trick.
Settings - display - horizontal & gyroscope calibration

discovered the problem. The problem was was not with the accelerometer but with the gyroscope. The problem arose from my phone casing. It had a pair of magnets and I think those were messing with the gyroscope. Without the casing everything works fine.

Wat case has a pair of magnets.?

Just some very sturdy case I got off some accessory store. The magnets are for catching the flip cover. Discarded it anyway. Using the original Samsung flip cover now. That doesn't protect the phone though.

Hi,
on a rooted Galaxy Note 10.1 with Android 4.1.2, I get this quite weird behavior in S Note and all apps that use the SPen.
Sketching with the SPen shows a couple of relatively large insensitive areas on the screen, while using the finger the areas are "fillable".
The two behaviors are shown in the pictures.
Any clue ?
Thanks in advance
Do you have it in a case that has magnets in it? Magnets can screw up the wacom sensor causing this issue...

This is right what it is !!!!!!!
I have a case which has three magnets right below that area, and one not far from the other edge.
Removing the tablet from the case sorts it out.
So, I've removed just the center one, which resolves the issue 90%.
Thanks so much !!!
No problem, we're all here to help ....
hi guys,
not sure if you're facing this issue.
i recently bought a protective cover, and after fixing it, noticed that the device is behaving odly.
it sleeps intermittently during use (as if you pressed the on/off button) and when you press on/off to turn it back, the home button and capacitive buttons are not functional. Back, home, and the task buttons can't work... after a few minutes of on/off, then it's ok.
however, when i take it out of the protective cover, it doesn't happen.
any of you have that problem?
Thanks.
Regards,
Liang
Yeah, I've experienced this problem too. I have a case that can flip the orientation of the screen. It seems that if I flip the tablet around the capacitive buttons come back. Very strange problem. I hope they can fix it in an update.

Hopefully the sensitivity of the magnetic sensor that controls smart cover functionality can be reduced via a software update. Until then being cognizant of it and realizing what orientation we have to keep our cover flaps away from to keep from triggering the screen off feature is all we can do.
Some cases have weaker magnets than others.

hi,
the cover i have does not have magnets.
where exactly the sensor that tirggers the sleep?
thanks.

The sensor is approximately 1.75 inches to the right of the G in the Samsung Logo and 1.5 inches from the top edge of the tablet.
Have you run a paper clip along all surfaces of the case/cover to determine for sure that there are no magnets embedded within either side of it? Magnets used for the on/off functionality in covers are thin and hidden inside the cardboard that is within the fabric/leather linings.

thanks... but what exactly am i looking at? or is it internal?
you reckon that it's the magnet that's causing this? funny, it was a cheap case, will run through a clip along the surface and check it out.
thanks
The sensor is internal. If you pass a magnet over that spot it will toggle the tablet screen on and off.

hi ..just got my note 12.2 from pc world .. was actually undercutting amazon so couldn't resist
anyway ... the bottom of the screen about 3 inches in when you try to draw a straight line you get a curved line and in two directions so its almost forming a circle of some kind .. ive just tested my stylus and my girlfriends edge sylus and mine of my note and it is doing the same thing .. however when you use your finger the curving of the lines does not happen ... so its obviously stylus related at this point of the screen only
has anyone run into this problem and do they know how to fix it .... or do i need to take this tablet back to the retailer as faulty ?? does something need to be calibrated ?? i havent seen an option to calibrate
picture attached of what its doing
Are you're using a case that has a magnet? If the answer is yes, take it off.
The Spen uses a magnetic sensor. Anything with a magnet in it will interfere with the pen.

Thank you for your information on that one .. i take exposure would not cause any permanent damage as lots of cases are magnetic ??
of course thats annoying as i bought the case to protect the note .. from possible drop damage and now i cant really use it much when drawing on the note now ... this one has a bluetooth keyboard so was quite nice from amazon
anyway thanks a lot there my girlfriend and i were panicking .. lol
the magnets are a top flap magnet to keep the case shut with the keyboard and i think one at the back that holds the back stand in place
What case is it exactly?

Just got Note 5 and the stylus is not quite flush with bottom of device. It protrudes just a bit and it's a little bit annoying but was wondering if anyone else has same issue.

I bought 3 and the pens are not flushed with any of them. It doesn't bother me; the top of the pen is not curved to match the contour of the corner.
The one I demoed in the store was actually flush.
It's very slight but I just assumed it was to make it easier to push in to release it.
I can feel it slightly also. This could be by design to make it easier to "feel" for the pen. If it was 100% flush with the phone it would be more difficult to feel without being able to see it (for example, during the night in bed)...
I think they are all like this, so it's not a defect with your particular phone.
My s pen was flush in the beginning. Now it's not. I am a heavy s pen user. I'm wondering if the spring inside was too compressed and now it has loosen. Not happy. ?

If you run naked it would be annoying, but if you use a case it really wouldn't matter at all.
