[Q] S Pen without settings mining? - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

I know how to drill down 23 steps into the menu to turn on S Pen detection. Is there a faster way? I have a Bamboo pen and would love a one tap way to activate it without leaving it on all the time or mining settings.
Thanks,
Homer

Go to Settings>>>> Spen>>>>Spen help
All of them in there
I'd have to say that Quick Command is so far my favorite S-Pen feature, as the previous posted said check under Settings > S Pen > S Pen Help, or go into your app drawer and open help then tap S Pen and you'll be able to learn about all the neat functionality.
While hovering, you switch from pen to eraser by clicking the spen button then switch back to pen again by clicking one more time, again while hovering.

Here's the actual thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351974
This app does not make hovering work. It just uses the proximity sensor at the top to fake it. There are other apps that do this better. I mainly use the sensor to turn off the screen when I close the cover.

Proximity Screen Off Pro by SHAILESH is the one I use - I tuned it up with the Dev and it works really great if you have the Samsung integrated cover case. But there is one secret to get it to work - the cover does not trigger the the sensor - in fact you can touch the cover and activate things on the screen if the screen is on. So to fix this problem I double sided taped (you can spot glue as well) a card made of paper stock on the inside of the cover and bingo works perfect. My wife had some cool card designs so it actually looks really nice a customized when I open the cover.
There are some tweaks to the timing you need to make as well:
Preferences:
Screen On/Off Modes
Flip/Cover Mode: ON
Timeout 1.5 sec
Enable Screen On using Gest - This lets you wave your hand over the sensor to turn on the screen - nice.
All Settings:
Enable device admin - this is a really nice feature- it allows you to have it unlock your phone when the app is active. It has a widget that I use to turn the service on and off. At home I use the cover, away I do not and the phone locks.
Flip cover fix - No Recognize Delay - ON Delay is 3 secs.
Disable call handling - On
Enable Schedule Start Stop
These are what I found works great for me.

How to disable hand touch when S-Pen is out

I'd like to disable the hand-touchscreen when I'm using the s-pen.
Is it possibile?
P.S.: I'm rooted
I also wanted to do this (make the handwriting pad default) and was told my Samsung customer support that it was not possible.
good feature

Yeah, I was just thinking about this yesterday.it would be nice if there was a Google in the notifications panel where we can just disable touch control totally and just let the pen do the job.it will be excellent for sketching.

Do you have pointer option in SPen settings turned on? When it's on and S Pen is close to screen(when you can see the pointer) hand control is turned off.

It's not enought for me. I don't want hand touch disabled only when S-Pen is near the screen, I want hand touch disabled even when S-Pen is far, so I can use Note as more similar than a real paper sheet.

S Notes and Ez pdf (several other apps do this as well) both have palm rejection which it basically what you want. Your hand will only work at the very top edge and bottom edge of the screen. You cannot enable this on the system as a whole though.

use GMD S Pen control. It has a gesture that disables finger input system wide though I map my Own gesture to the action. This even disables the capacitive buttons until you re-enable touch. CHEERS

I set gestures multiple times to ensure recognition. When using gmd gesture control I have tusker set to pause the gestures when I remove the spen so. they don't interfere with it. I'll make a thread on my setup

I can't find the command you've used. Where is it?
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0cv3wx-c6pMNDV5ZTNHTHQxSm8/edit?usp=docslist_api
when selecting the action to configure to a gesture select actions: Samsung Note actions: Disable touch input

I still can't find it
Strange your ROM must not support it. I am running the ML1 and it's there so you should flash that. I also had it on the American MK1 SO You Could try that or Clean Rom as well.

S-pen detection

Is there anyway to download something or do something that turns off the notice that Spen has been detached? I always get the notice in the notification bar and a little vibrate saying it has been detached when it shakes a bit or I pick it up by the corner where the pen is located
Thank you

[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
