Back cover problems - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Does anyone else have this clicking sound on the top right corner on top of the phones back. Sounds like a clicking button but I think its from the back cover . Its starting to get annoying. Let me know if its just my device .

Do a quick search for "creaking" in the Q&A section, as I think this has already been covered.

S-pen messed up?

Is the s pen supposed to write on the notepad thing when it is hovering over the screen? Also it will act as if it is touching the screen when it is not...is it supposed to?

You're probably bumping into the "Air view" feature without knowing what it is. I recommend you read the manual to understand all of the awesome functionality, including the cool things that you can do with the S-Pen, that Samsung included with the Note 2. Failing that, you're likely to be posting basic questions like this to the annoyance of many. =)
To turn *off* the hover functionality, go to "Settings | S Pen" and swipe the "Air view" to "off".

I don't know if it should, but mine does, too. The middle bar there is slightly raised.

The above link might help you. I've heard of others with similar issues and I believe they fixed it by adjusting the sensitivity.
Edit: Said the same as bigbrotherbear, but he said it better and I let my response sit on my screen too long before submitting. =)
Thanks this has solved my problem

Appearing / Dissapearing Tab

A small semicircular tab sometimes appears on the left side of the screen. Pulling it out shows an icon bar and an edit button. Then it again dissapears. So far have not identified what I do to make it appear or disappear. Anyone knows how or where to find settings for it or how to lock it on and off?

Please search before posting next time. This has been asked almost everyday.
It is the multiwindow feature. Holding BACK button will activate/deactivate it.
Don't mean to sound rude, it just gets frustrating seeing the same questions pop up over and over and over again.

[Q] Any dialers with the Contact button on the bottom right of the screen?

Any dialers with the Contact button on the bottom right of the screen?
im using exdialer right now but annoys me that my contacts button is on the bottom left (the stock dialer has top right). its a bit of a stretch for my thumb on the note 2. I searched the play store but i couldnt find one that has the contacts button on the bottom right. I would also settle for middle right.
Anyone have any suggestion other then growing longer thumbs?:good::good:
Try go contact. It has the contacts button on the 2nd from left, reasonably reachable. ..

[Q] stock browser question

when browsing a webpage in the middle to bottom right hand corner, when i go to scroll the webpage down it zooms in on the page, is this a feature? I have a ZAGG HD screen protector on the screen. Does anyone elses Note 2 do the same thing?
Yep, I guess it's a "feature", and I've had it happen in other apps as well. I hate it - I'm always hitting it by mistake. I wish someone would figure out how to make a mod to disable it!

Screen response

Just checking to see if anyone else is having this issue trying to decide if it is software or hardware. From time to time I have a non responsive section (lower right corner) it doesn't always do it so I wasn't sure if it was something loose hardware or a software clich. It is not app specific had it happen in games, home screen, and mostly in keyboard but I think that is because I use the keyboard more than anything.

Except that's a wacom digitizer issue, the OP is having a problem with the capacitive touchscreen (unless he uses the qwerty keyboard with his S-pen which seems cumbersome)
And yeah, i too can't seem to hover reliably at the VERY bottom right corner of the screen, but my capactive touchscreen is fine as if you look at where the OP is having problems (around the period button on the virtual keyboard) my S-pen works there, but it's hard to detect when it gets close to the bottom right corner, maybe a 2x2mm patch.
In any case, OP, looks like a hardware defect, go grab a new one.
Looks like I have similar problem. I even opened s-note and tried to draw some lines using tiniest pen line. I have few pixels which I couldn't draw on. Anyone with same issue?

Is your phone situated near any kind of magnet-material? Usually, that causes interference with the display on the Note 2
