is this possible, and just not been developed yet, or is it a hardware issue?
My note 4 s pen works fine on the note 2. What device are you trying it on?
It should work. Make sure you take out the spen from the other device slot or it may not work.
I was trying it with the note 8.0 thanks i hadn't taken out the stylus

So, I am deciding to upgrade my s3 to either the note 2 or note 3. The issue is mainly cost; is it really worth it?
What I love about the note 3 are the s-pen features - being able to have that wee little pop up menu and apps along with it I("airview") AND the note 3 has awesome handwriting recognition.
Also love the new camera interface.
If I get the note 2, update to 4.3, will I have those?
or
Will I need to put on a custom rom?
Thx!
Hello a few weeks ago I met someone with a Galaxy Note 2 who was running a custom OS on his phone that gave him Note 3 capabilties which made me wonder, can I run a Note tablet OS on my Galaxy Tab S and buy an S Pen that will allow me to use features like Air Command & S Note?
If so, I'd like to know how. Thanks in advance.
Won't work. You can't run a note ROM on a tab S and the tab S screen isn't capable of reading an S pen.
I remember seeing some S pen stuff in the list of installed apks in the stock ROM. I suspect they all use more it less the same software. If the hardware isn't there, it is left unused.
Similarly, you see some phone stuff in the Wi-Fi version. Doesn't mean you can make calls.
Note 5 s-pen on GS6?
Does the s-pen work with the GS6 and if not is there a way of tricking the S6 into thinking its a note for so it can use the s-pens functionality?
Edit: Sorry this is my first time and first post on XDA so it might be stupid.
The power of the SPen is in the digitizer on the Note (behind the screen). Therefore, there is no way that I know of that would make the SPen work with any non-Wacom device. The SPen will only work with Galaxy Note devices.

I was just trying to edit a photo on my Samsung S6 and it gave an option to install the S Pen? So doesn't in fact work for photo editing on the S6?

That's just to install the SDK which you need for the photo editing capabilities.
Now we all know that the GearVR no longer supports the use of the Note 7. But I wonder if Samsung has enable the Note FE to be used with the GearVR Seeing as the Note FE is nothing more than a refurbished Note 7 with a smaller battery.
I tried VR with the Note 7 ported rom last night and none of the software was present and it did nothing when plugged into the headset. Installed apks but no joy. Will keep you posted if I get it working.
Good news. editing build.prop > ro.build.model to "SM-G955V" (model no. for S8+) has stopped crashing of Oculus app.
Manually installing all packages has now allowed me to get into Oculus app Will try with the headset when I get home.
*edit* waiting on OTG fix from rom dev in hope it sorts the recognition.
VR does work on my Note 7 with Hydra without any issues. But change the model to a S7 edge SM-G935F because if you change it to a S8+ the Apps will think you are using a S8+ a 18.5 screen and will stretch the image! this will leave you with a wrong aspect ratio and a headache.
I'm not wondering if the original Note 7 will working with the GearVR. I wanna know if the Note FE running the stock OS will work with the GearVR. It is good to know that the original Note 7 will work with the GearVR running a custom OS
Chieco is right about what I was saying with the aspect ratio. No need to deviate from the way it was done before.
Sorry I didn't read your post properly. I think there will be issues still, like I'm having atm. As it's not supported like the note 7 you will need to root, do the build . prop fix and get the vr setupwizard apk as it won't be on the phone.

That sucks. I would have thought that Samsung would have addressed this when they released the Note FE. Seeing as the Note FE has a different model number and is running on the latest OS version

My guess would be that Oculus/Samsung couldn't be bothered or didn't want to make it easier to get it working on regular notes. This might be why the latest version crashes constantly and won't detect. I'm curious if it still works on hydra or if they patched it to not work on either note7 full stop.
Any News to use gear vr on our Note 7 with FE rom port (on hydraRom, it works...)
Hi, do you know any other S-Pens that will work on Note 10.1 2014? I don't mind small size and inability to store stylus in the device. What about styluses from Smartphones like Note3/4/5? Besides, is there any chance that Wacom Cs-310 will work like charm with Note 10.1 2014? The device is listed as compatible so I expect that it won't be possible.

I used my note 4 s pen on 10.1 and the other way around just fine.
Haven't tried the note 8 yet.
