Touch not working - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone ever hear of finger touch being unresponsive while S-pen functionality remains perfect?I don't mean you have to thump it to get it to recognize a touch,I mean NO TOUCH WHATSOEVER....zilch zero nothing.....I've flashed stock ROM,checked settings in every app that could be involved... I'm baffled.This Note is about 9 months old.Daily driver is Jamison's AOKP JB 4.2.2
Thanks

Sounds like the capacitive touch digitizer is bad.. This has nothing to do with the s-pen digitizer ...Have you dropped it or banged it around much. Maybe its a loose connection ... Just thoughts. but 8 months old its under warranty still. Call samsung.. Boohooooo

Was the tablet connected to charging? If yes take off the charger and try.
Remove tablet from any magnetic case amd try again as well.

You are MOST DEFINATELY gonna need it. Would be easier to restock and get fixed under warranty...

Well this guy video is ultra high def and it really doesn't seem that hard. I have the tools also. I flashed this thing about nine times I don't know if they would honor of my warranty or not. I realize I could use triangle away...

[Q] Face unlock on Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0)

My mother just got a Galaxy Tab 2 7 inch and saw that it had ics on it. I have always wanted ics becuase of face unlock. Does anyone know why the Galaxy Tab 2 doesn't have face unlock?
Probably cause it sucks with vga cameras.. I have face lock on my sensation, and but disabled it after a few days cause of crappie results. Sensation has a vga front camera as well.

its a pretty pointless feature imo. badly implemented and not secure at all. and if you are using it, have to turn a light on so it can see your face so no late night tablet while your lady is sleeping next to ya, gotta leave the room first lol

Eventually face lock will default to draw or pin if it can't see your face, but still a pita at night.

It is also disabled by other devices probably because it is extremely insecure.

Annoying S Note zoom bug :(

Anyone who is right handed has probably noticed the INCREDIBLY ANNOYING zoom bug you experience when writing in Snote after reaching the bottom of the page.
For some reason palm rejection goes haywire in the bottom right 1/3 of the screen if you rest your hand while writing. Everytime you put your hand down to write the screen zooms. Turning on and off pen only recognition makes no difference.
Have no idea how to fix this and am open to suggestions. Hopefully Samsung will address this in their next OTA.

Lock to s pen only at top right corner. Not much else we can do before a new firmware update. I hopefully it's jellybean

Yeah its a bug. Locking the pen has no effect. I'll go to Samsungs Facebook page and post about it. We just have to wait on new OTA.

Oh good its not just me. I didn't remember this being a problem before or after the update but then it just happened. Really upset me to say the least.

Screen blurry

I was playing candy crush earlier and my screen just started turning white and really hot so I took battery out right away. After I turned it on the screen is all flickery now. I thought it might be the ROM since I'm running g paranoid android but when I went into recovery mode even twrp looked blurry. Any suggestions? Kinda hard to tell but I took a couple pics of the screen.

Forgot to mention that the screen is cracked but its been this way for a couple months now and has never gave me a problem.

Boot Up! Why

Why does it take so long to boot up the tablet? Its as bad as the first generations androids and blackberries.
Sent from my SHIELD Tablet using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
Do you constantly turn it off? I'm fine with the boot time since I really only reboot it once a day
Yeah since battery only last about 6 hours I'll run till it dry. I'm actually pretty disappointed in it. Wished I would have kept my nexus 7.

Well my first Note 5 screen died on me.

Phone worked perfect, I got it Monday. Friday at my desk at the office, I took 3 pics. A minute later the screen wouldn't turn on. It flickered green first then original color in less than one second. It's like the board went bad on the screen already. Touch input worked.
I have a new one now.

That also happened to mine, but it was caused by the spen being broken inside the phone.

Interesting, what part of the pen. I didn't check the pen since I couldn't use the phone
Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk
It actually split the pen in the center, but may or may not have damaged the circuit board. My screen went haywire. Flashing green whenever I woke it up.

Correct, I pulled the pen out after it was freaking out, and half of it stayed inside the slot. Once I removed the final piece inside the phone, it still freaked out. I removed service and went back to my note 2, then an hour later, my note 5 was fine, using it now(minus the spen, cant really wait on Samsung warranty claim at the moment,) although I'm pretty sure they would somehow tell me the spen breaking inside the phone was my fault.
