SM-P600 S-Pen doesn't work - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

Hi,
Just a little question... I've searched on the net but I haven't found the answer to my question.
My Samsung p600 works perfect, but the s-pen doesn't work. When I take it out, I have the air view but if I click on the button on the s-pen nothing happen.
The s-pen works, because I've tried to use it with my note 4... and I've tried to use the s-pen of note 4 on my p600... nothing.
Oh, yes, I've changed the lcd block... the previous one had broken digitizer + colours problems (but with it... s-pen worked). So, my question is... which flex cable (lcd ribbon or one of the 2 on the right side qt the top.. I thought that one was the digitizer and the other the backlight) makes that the s-pen is recognised on the screen?
Thanks a lot and have a nice day!

Solution for stylus sensor problem
After some searching I finally found a solution. It appears that the cover with magnetic attach will effect BADLY at stylus sensor & sensitivity. If anyone encounter with the same problem. Check ur cover if it's a magnetic then change it.

If it is kept cuz I already bought it and in fact it keeps the mobile well secured , will it decrease the screen sensitivity in the future ????

No but when the magnet is present it'll mess with the detection of the stylus.

Possible WACOM Issue or Digitizer?

Hi Guys, first post on these forums. I bought a Note 2 from someone who sold it to me as an unwanted gift. Anyways its still under warranty, everything worked great until i took out the s-pen. Now the S-Pen does work but it misses the sides of the screen. Its a little hard to explain, its like:
If i draw lines on the Snote, the lines will break at specific areas on the left and right sides of the screen. If i press really hard, then the S-Pen will write in those areas but not accurately.
Is my Note II Defective, or is it the S-Pen or am I doing something wrong here.
Screenshots are attached. One with simple press and one with hard press.
Hope someone can help me.
Regards,
Solid Monki

Type *#0*# and select Touch
Try completing the lines with your finger/ If all the lines are green , then it must be an issue with spen(unlikely).

This video explains my problem
Strange. From the video it looks as if the problem is because of a defective digitizer.
There isnt much you can do other than flashing another rom. If that doesn't fix , then youll have to go to the Service Center. Im sure they would test your note with another spen.
Or do one thing, go to some mall where a Note 2 is on display,take the spen out from that note and use it on your device.
Good Luck mate.
I gave the phone in for warranty, the warranty was refused as apparently the phone's lcd was replaced at the same place coz of breakage, i guess i have been a victim of a fraud lol. Trying to save $50 now i have a phone with a broken s-pen function and no warranty. Oh well, lesson learned: Always buy NEW.
I would like to know if i can buy a digitizer from ebay will it solve the problem or does the s-pen work on some other part.
All i can find on ebay is the whole LCD+Digitizer package selling for over $300. :S
Any recommendaiton will be greatly appreciated.

Do I have a bad digitizer or S-Pen, or something else?

Hey all, thanks for any input.
So to start out, I'm on a AT&T Note II. Using the phone without the S-Pen works fine, I can push here, push there, push everywhere without any "extra" pushes happening. The problem is when I pull out the S-Pen and start using it, if I'm hovering about the screen, not touching it, it acts like I'm clicking/pressing on things. It will also make it so that if I'm hovering and move the pen, the desktop changes to the next one as if I'm swiping. It's gotten so bad that I can't even use the S-Pen as it makes it unreliable. I'm running a 3.0.36 Perseus alpha27 kernel, rooted, at 4.1.2 Android version.
It seems like it's a bad S-Pen but I wasn't sure if that's possible.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Hmmm think I got it "fixed" I read where other people were having the problem and tried wacking the S-Pen on a table a few times and that fixed the ghost pressing. Lo and behold I did that and it fixed the problem. Something in the Pen must get stuck..
Yes happend to me n I hit the table with my spen tip hitting table 3 or 4 times, seems like it would be bad for it but fixed the problem

Thats a easy "fix" +1
Mine did that, then I got a replacement s Pen and it worked perfectly.
If you hover over the screen and then press the tip of the pen you will notice it registers as a click. So while it might seem like the screen is registering the clicks it's actually the tip of the pen. Sometimes this gets stuck a little up or a little out of alignment or whatever. A few good wacks will restore it to the correct position most of the time.
-- Note II, TapaTalk II--
Yep, simply bounce it off of the table a few times and it will be good to go. Been there, done that.
Smacking the pen and messing with the settings inside the pen are only temporary "fixes" I had this issue with my original S-Pen.. Went to the At&t warranty & claims store and they gave me a new pen.. YMMV .. New pen has been perfect. The tip on the new one seems a bit firmer than the OE one.. I'm guessing the flimsy spring is causing the problems

I agree, it's too easy to get a new pen.

Weird S-Pen

I don't use my S-Pen too often, but since yesterday it becomes too sensitive it start to draw before I touch the screen.
I tried my spare (purchased separately) S-Pen and do exactly the same behavior.
Any clues?
My note 2 is Un-Rooted.
No changes, no drops, same LCD protector, no magnets.
I trird

Got the same issue and resolved it by hitting several times the stylus on a surface that won't damage it like a pillow or your hand if you can bear it. Hit firmly but apply reasonable strenght though. Repeat until issue is gone. To clean the stylus may help too.
It can be your tip of the pen that's stucked...

It's very common. you'll need to adjust the potentiomenter on the pen. See here

That worked, but seems I'll need a new S pen, this one now is all time as eraser

Click on the pen button? Or press the same pen button while on float

I believe you can adjust the sensitivity of the pen by removing the button on the s pen and adjusting the screw underneath.

Replacement screen. LCD is smaller?! Keep missing onscreen buttons.

Hello everyone.
The LCD of my S3 was broken so I ordered a replacement screen on eBay.
It arrived and I replaced it without incident. (It was an LCD + Frame + digitizer assembly)
But after a couple hours I noticed that the LCD is a couple of millimeters smaller on each side.
It is really not noticeable on first sight. The first days I dismissed it because it was something that didn't bug me too much.
But I noticed that I keep mistyping when I'm using the keyboard. Also I keep missing other onscreen buttons and it drives me insane!
I think this is because the digitizer is made for a larger LCD.
First I thought that it was a software problem, but you can see the borders even when the display is off.
I tried taking a picture and you can definitely see it on the left and the bottom border.

http://i.imgur.com/PgR6gDd.jpg (I turned the brightness to the max here so you could see the borders.)
Should I ask for an RMA? Or am I seeing ghosts here??
Love to hear your thoughts.
That s not an SAMSUNG OEM LCD Display.. Look at capacitive buttons color...

If you look at the spacing the Samsung logo at both the top and bottom, there is an extra bit of space and as you rightly said, the bezels on the sides are a bit thicker. If it gives you peace of mind, then go for the RMA, but chances are you might end up getting the same thing. Maybe you could try a different seller? Where did you purchase it from?

Yeah probably not
The capacitive buttons are the normal white color. In the picture they are not on.

I guess I'm just going to keep using it and wait for the next gen smartphones.
Thanks for the info!
Touch function Not working
Hi,
I am using Galaxy S3 Korean Version (SHV-E210L).
I have tried TraingleAway V2.35 to reset flash counter. But it did not reset flash counter, but damaged touch function. Now my phone display is working, but touch function is not working. I am using OTG cable with Mouse for urgent works.
I have two things which i need answer. Can some one help me.. ::crying:
1. Before i fix this, i need to reset flash counter anyway. But latest versions of TraingleAway are not working for this model and Previous versions from V2.35 is also give massge stating "Are you not using ICS". Phone has Android 4.3. So can some one give me a solution?
2. I want to fix touch problem and i search for digitizer in Ebay. But there are digitizers for GT-I9300, but not for SHV-E210L? Is digitizer for 9300is compatible for SHV-E210L? Further waht is screen lens means? Is it digitizer?
Thanks a lot

Hi, that's about the price I paid for supposedly genuine (but not) screens on ebay for my S3, my buttons are also not white as mentioned above.
The first screen I fitted went faulty after about an hour, took a while to get a refund, I had to pay postage back.
Second screen cracked after a very small drop, digitiser was OK, bought replacement screen but when changing it (with heat, etc) the digitiser separated from its backing rather than the screen.... maybe me being ham fisted but I think it was a different bonding used
Third screen/digitiser assembly now has a crack running right across it, and I've not ever dropped it! It still works so I'm leaving it alone and buying a new phone this time.
Also I find the paint comes off the frame very easily by taking it out of a hard case or screen mount and mine looks a mess after a couple of months, and the frame joint is obvious and creaks when pressed.
So these screen aren't very good - but I couldn't find a definitely genuine screen for a price that was worth bothering to fix the phone.... I would definitely get a tempered glass protector if I did fit another of these.....
