Anyone else noticing that their s-pen is less responsive?

Out if the box I thought the s-pen could do no wrong. Now lately I'm noticing its not registering more and more frequently even though my behavior hasn't changed.
Any one else noticing this?

Not registering screen writing or button presses? I had the Note 1 and the thing I find myself getting used to now is that the pen is more accurate, untill you try to hit onscreen buttons. You have to push the pen harder on the buttons. Its just how it is I guess

there's another thread about opening up the spen and configuring the sensitivity. I followed the tutorial and made it more sensitive and it works better now.

No sensitivity issues here, good to know there is a calibration wizard though.
It took me a while to realize, but I noticed when the screen sees the stylus, like air view, the bottom three buttons don't work. And I keep having the urge to press back or menu with the stylus. Not a big deal, but it would be nice.

Spen not able to capture screen or lasso image

Hi!
My Spen w/o pressing the button, is able to function. But, when I press the button (on the Spen), it doesn't screen capture or trace the screen to lasso an image.
I tried it on another Note 2, my Spen works on theirs.
I tried their Spen on my Note 2, it didn't work.
Anyone notice this?
Thanks, team!

Normally all spen works in any note 2. It seem your phones digitizer having some problem. Check with service center.

Did you try looking at the spen settings? If yes and still no progress. As he said, go to the service center or at least google your problem before going there as a last resort.

[Q] S-pen problems on parts of screen

I use my note 2 to make quick drawings. I know the edge of the screen is beveled so the spen has problems writing straight
However I recently noticed that some parts of my screen produces crooked lines when using spen. Sometimes when I try to draw a straight line, the pointer jumps.
Is it possible to "dent" the touchscreen portion of the screen? If so, how to diagnose this properly?

I made this using a ruler and the 2 spens. Personally, I don't think it's an spen problem.

[Q] Spen in it's cradle keeps waking tablet

In regards to the feature (if thats what you want to call it) that as you pull the S Pen out of cradle the tablet vibrates and the screen comes on.
With the S-Pen in it's cradle the screen the tablet will virate and the screen will come on. Just carrying it (without hands or fingers anywhere near Pen) and alot of times it will do this on its own when the tablet is say, just sitting on the table by itself. Is there any way to turn this off? Or a way to make the screen ONLY come on when the power and/or home button is touched. I searched all over and can find no one mentioning this. It's driving me insane.
Any ideas.
Thanks

Worst case scenario: broken s-pen digitizer. Best case scenario: software bug.
Did it always behave this way? Have you tried using different s-pens?

No it was fine since 2 weeks back it started like this. I tried other s-pen its working perfect and this s pen in that cell...messes up that too. But if its broken how did it happen? My cell never fell...so as s pen.

I spilled coffee on my note 3 and the phone didn't seem to break, but I just noticed that my s pen doesn't work at all. Any ideas on how to trouble shoot this? It doesn't even recognize that I remove it from the phone.

Check if the nib of the pen (the small white part at the end) can be pushed inside. If it can't be pushed, pull it out gently. There should always be some play in the nib to allow for pressure variations. Had the same problem. Worked like a charm for me.
