Does anyone know if the Galaxy S pen will work with our T-989 and if there is a way to port that software onto our phones or will it be included in our ICS update? The reason I ask is because i hate using my fingers to draw something in the drawsomething app. I love that app but would like to make my drawings better. So will the S pen be compatible???
I think the S pen is just like any other stylus..not sure tho..if you have some sort of stylus lying and try that and see if that works..

That is not correct. The S-Pen is a Wacom digitizer pen that does not work on a our compasitive screens. The wacom feature allows for pressure sensitive versus heat sensitive
Thanks for the correction..wasn't to sure..my bad lol..Learn something new everyday..

No worries, Im a graphic artist and that was the first thing I wanted to know when it came out. There are a few youtube videos on that question.
I thought our phones screen responded to electrons.... Verified it with a battery, slide the positve side and nothing but when you slide the negative side of the battery on the screen it responds. So anyhting with a negative charge would work with the phone right?

That is interesting but I'm not sure I want to try so I'll take your word for it. And thanks everyone for the replies.....it's a little confusing to say the least. I was hoping for better news that would allow us to use a stylus. Maybe something will come up. Who knows.....
The note has two digotozers that allow for input through fingers and the s pen stylus. It has to be s pen because it is a different type of stylus so normal run off the mill styluses won't work. Same deal with us, but we only have one digitzer for input from finger only. So neither s pen nor stylus will work unless you get the one made for capacitive screens which are nit accurate at all.

I'm really excited about the prospect of using this phone to replace my pad of paper at work, but I'm wondering if it works as well as advertised.
Is it possible to write small characters using the S Pen and S Note (or third party app)? In the reviews I've seen they always use gigantic letters when demonstrating S Note.
What happens if I rest my palm on the screen? Do I have to keep the pen close enough to the screen (so it detects it as hovering) to avoid picking up touches from my palm?
I used it to take our menu order last night for 9 of us without any issues if that helps?

U can write small letter, thre is a slider that can change how thick/thin the lines gonna be and also can rest u palm on the screen while using s-pen writing. Its a new features on Note 2, there is a icon at bottom right that can activate not to react while a palm touching the screen while using the s-pen. Search for spen in youtube and watch the magic of s-pen.

Thanks for the info!
Did you consider buying the note 10.1?
I use it for note taking in lectures and the bigger screen is definitely an advantage there over my note 2!
Though the possible functions are nearly the same

My S-Pen hovers slightly off the center of the point. when writing, its offset by different values based on where it is on the screen, very reminicent to a wacom digitizer in a convertible thats not calibrated. I've searched and searched, and apparently there isn't a real calibration utility for the note 2. Does anyone else have this issue, and is there a fix, even if it requires manually tweaking calibration coordinates in a conf file like the early linux wacom days? The pen isn't unusable for writing, but its all but useless for some design work. If anyone has an interim solution other than trying to swap the unit out, Im all ears.
Thanks,
I don't know to what degree you are talking about, but I know that the "which hand is dominant" option under s pen settings off sets it by a tiny bit. try switching this, maybe you'll see it switch sides, maybe it will fix your problem (although the amount by which it moves would make me think you have eagle vision if you were able to get bothered by it)
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Lol at eagle eyes. I do have great vision . Its set for right handed but its offset like its for a lefty. I've tried adjusting the setting in the hope it may reset itself to no avail. Its off by about a half cm to the right and down in the worst locations maybe a mm in the best.

There is a thread regarding a fix for this. I havent had to do it personally, but it involves taking off the s-pen button cover and adjusting small screws for sensitivity and "alignment"
I will try and search it and post it.

YES, I'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. When I opened up the S-Note app for the first time to practice on elegant penmanship on this device (Galaxy Note 2) I started to write EVERYWHERE on the screen, in small font and without zooming in on the screen. I noticed that at the lower-right-hand-corner of the screen there is a problem. Where the stylus nib touches on the screen is NOT where I see the digital ink produced on my screen. The digital ink is 'considerably' off to the right. Even better, if you open up the S-Note and launch the MEMO app - the one with the SQUARE grids, this is an even better way to test this out, as you can ATTEMPT to trace over those vertical and horizontal lines as perfectly as you can. I can guarantee to reproduce this by attempting to trace over the lines on the lower right-hand-corner of my screen and where my stylus nib touches is NOT where the digital ink is produced. So how did I discover this? I discovered this by writing normally as I normally would - naturally - on the screen and when I got to the lower right-hand corner my letters came out extremely sloppy and way off aligned.
I called my cellular carrier's tier 2 tech support and I had them on the phone as I tried to walk him through the process on a Note 2 he had there. He said what he saw was so menial or "minoot" that he could barely notice it by a millimeter. I challenged that I wasn't trying to debate how "acceptable" this may seem to some people. I challenged that it's an identifiable technical and physical glitch none-the-less, regardless how noticeable to some or not. I THEN went into a U.S. Cellular store, looked at TWO other Note 2's, tried MY stylus on THEIR demo phones, tried THEIR stylus on THEIR demo phones, tried THEIR stylus on MY personal phone and ALL THE RESULTS WERE IDENTICAL as my initial complaint......ON THREE DIFFERENT HANDSETS WITH TWO DIFFERENT STYLUSES!
So what gives, man???
As for the previous post about taking off the S-Pen button cover and making adjustment, I think you were talking about this here:
h*t*t*p*-colon-fowardslash-fowardslash-smartphones.wonderhowto.com/how-to/adjust-your-samsung-galaxy-notes-s-pen-sensitivity-for-better-touch-response-0140084/[/url]
Anyway, so guess what I'm gonna do today? Visit random stores from T-Mobile, Sprint, U.S. Cellular, ANYONE and ANYWHERE where there is a Note 2 and do some massive comparisons. I regret that I'm alone in this effort today and that I don't have another person to video record my findings and interviews with store agents on my illustrations so I can blast it on YouTube.
I live in Chicago...who's down with me, man?
Wish you all the best. It's a MASSIVELY impressive phone, just wish that calibration/alignment issue wasn't an issue. The tech support guy tried to pass it off on me as saying that "99% of people wouldn't notice it" and that it certainly had to have passed quality inspection from Samsung. Then I challenged that "99%" would suggest then that even the quality testers over at Samsung were also guilty of "not noticing", which doesn't say that it was non-existent. Who actually writes way, way, way down in the lower right-hand corner to notice this anyway?
THIS GUY RIGHT HERE!! FOR $800, I WAN'T A DANG PEEEEERRRRRFFFEEECT FREAKIN' PHONE! IN ALL FOUR CORNERS OF MY DEVICE!! I'M ENTITLED!
I wanna bust out my Gracie Jiu-Jitsu on someone, man. lol

My biggest issue with the Note 2 is that it keeps me from doing real work or wanting to see my family or shave or take a bath or sleep. I should be sleeping now but guess what i am doing, tweaking the layout, testing apps that never really worked on older phones. Aahhhhhhh, see my frustration?

lol interesting thread - i've had my note for a total of 2.5 hours so far (side by side with my S3) and i've got to say (having used the original note) the overall feel is nice, very rounded, a bit slippery perhaps (nothing a skin cant fix)
the pen still feels lighter than i'd like and the button is a bit more recessed than i'd like
the home button is awesome and much more responsive than my stock s3
a similar complaint to my s3 but when grabbing the device from the bottom edge, i have a tendency to tap the menu / back buttons on accident, a bit annoying when not using a case
the glass is nice, the feel of the pen on the screen is much more controlled than the original
nfc, yay! google wallet downloaded, would message ' not compatible' on open and shut itself down... boo..
the volume and home button have a nice confident click and feel compared to the s3 and original note...

Man... youre right about the home and volume buttons... i forgot
Google Wallet not working.
Lack of multi windows.
The pen feels a bit cheap still (loved the feel of the Palm Tungsten metal ones that were telescopic). Though fixable as I think I'll get a dual use pen/pointer to keep in pocket/briefcase, I'm a fairly large bloke too, so having that larger pen will help too, this current one isn't really of a decent size/thickness/weight to use for long periods of time, I think my hand would 'claw' up.
Lack of cases for a while (the official 'flap' one is good, got it at last but was making me twitchy not having it protected. Wish there was a good/cheap pouch type case to slide it in for extra protection). And/or the 'flap' phone case, the front of it, the actual flap, is wonderful to touch, but the back is the same uber slippery plastic that the default one is. Can NFC not be done through a very slightly thicker case with a built in rubberised coasting, as the Nexus7 has? This thing is still very, very slick, and I can see with slightly sweaty hands, I'll need to be extra careful.
The built in Samsung Keyboard (that is SO incredibly good with the Swype/cool T9 like swype functionalty/left/right handed), but doesn't scale to other resolutions if you tweak the lcd dpi. REALLY a great keyboard, please make it scale! No, best keyboard I've ever used, and it's keeping me from tweaking the dpi.
The knowledge that when I do inevitably flash CM on this, I'll probably end up losing TMobile wifi calling, that for me, is working wonderfully.
Touch wiz is mildly... odd. But not as bad as seen before, JB's ability to disable things is really helping. But what annoys me somewhat is the different functionality for no other reason than to do it different it appears, and needing a few extra apps (like the photo editor) downloaded when built in apps rely on it.
Oh, no 32mb NII's in TMobile, and so much of the 16GB filled with Bloatware (steady Cyanogenmod, steady... your day will come).
So, all pretty minor (hopefully constructive) criticisms. Overall, still mad impressed with this phone. All phones should have the option to have it work with a stylus as well integrated as this.
If I had the chance to order things to be fixed;
Wifi Calling for Tmobile as an installable app so I'd be less twitchy about flashing with other roms.
Rubberised back.
My personal gripe, is about how much my GN2 looks and feels like an iPhone. In everyway, from the straight lines, to the rounded corners, and don't get me started with the app drawer. The smoothness of page transitions, Google Now.
OK.. I was just kidding guys! LOL.
My real gripes -
1 the on/off button on the exact opposite side of the device as the volume rocker. They should have put it up on top.
2 No dedicated camera button.
3 I always loved scrollable wallpaper, which I feel I shouldn't need to root, and re-rom for it.
4 No auto spell correct from the stock Samsung keyboard.
5 Oh yeah, NO [email protected]#$KING MULTI-SCREEN. - sorry, had to get that one in.

The battery life is too good. The phone is too gorgeous.
Only gripe is the call volume being a bit on the low side even when maxed. Speaker is loud enough though.
I'm sure they're apks to tweak it a bit but I'm too busy enjoying the phone so i'll search for a fix later.
Somerhing for me is the screen keeps timing our evn with the option checked to see my eyes... also when it goes out and I press home button it goes home instead of waking up to the app I was on. Everyother phone did not do this. Is this just me or is there a setting?
I came from the S3, and love everything about my Note 2. I can't say one bad thing about it.

Size once in a while, I'm 5'7 so I guess that means I have smaller hands? For the most part I dont have an issue but some times my hand gets fatigued from using it too much...Not complaining but sometimes I wish they kept the 5.3 and made it narrower it'd be perfect for me.
I don't like that we can't use our S-Pen on our soft keys. It would be great to be able to hit the menu and back buttons with the pen and have them respond.
i dont like the physical home button,but not enough to keep me from buying it, i think next year it will be all cap.buttons.oh well i'll get it when its available
What do you guys mean when u say no multi windows ? I have a gs3 and really weighing if is worth getting the note 2 or sticking with the gs3 or the nexus 4 but thats another story

So if you want to tap while hovering. Get the s pen close to the screen and put your finger under the s pen tip and press the tip in. I just found out that the screen isn't the one recognizing the taps. The s pen has a sensor that tells the phone that it is touching the screen. Maybe many of you knew this but I just found out so wanted to share!

Neat! Even though you would have to practice to be able to do it well, since it is so tiny.
They should have added an extra button on the pen to do that action.
Ya I really wish they did. I been trying to find some kind of method to tap while hovering for a longggg time
I wish clicking the button on the S-Pen could function as a tap so I could browse like this...

That would be pretty cool.. It's probably just a matter of time here at XDA.
Actually I might get an extra pen & try to take this on. If the phone can register a click while hovering using your trick (which I tried and it definitely does), it should theoretically be possible to remap the hard-button to tap into the same trigger that the phone recognizes when the pen's tip is pressed. It's gonna be a ***** getting this pen apart but at least the button is close to the tip :good:.
If anyone knows where to get a note 2 pen for less than $50 let me know..
EDIT: Just discovered that if you hold your finger over the tip of the pen (keeping the tip depressed) you can scroll/tap/etc. when you're within an inch or two of the screen.. Intersting

The idea that I was thinking of, as a spin-off to the OP's comment, was having a pen modified so that you could just wave over the screen to move around within the OS and just tap the button to interact. Obviously it's not a game-changer but it would be fun playing some games or even swyping without having to touch the screen.
There might even be a way to modify a glove or something that works in a manner similar to kinect.. of course you'd have to be pretty close to the screen but still might be a fun little project to play around with.. Anyway, extra pen is on it's way.. we'll see where this goes.
I think you could just remove the s-pen button cover and adjust the sensitivity pot and achieve the same thing?
Prety neat trick consideringi have the invisable shield and the spen destroys it

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but another cool spen trick that I happened upon while hovering is switching from pen to eraser by clicking the spen button.
Since it looks like we are starting a Cool S-Pen thread here it works ridiculously well in splashtop and gives you a super responsive and accurate mouse
And as for figuring out a way to click without touching the screen it would probobly be easier to swap the input events rather than physically modding the pen

Wow that's a much better idea than the hardware mod I was thinking of.. I'm an absolute beginner at coding & hardware comes easily to me so I don't feel too stupid for not thinking of it.
Ideally I want to try & write an app that would give you the option of switching the preset input events on the fly so I could go from normal spen use to "hover" spen mode with an IME type notification or something.. Now where to begin
