Is it possible to change the tip on the stylus that comes with the S Pen Holder Kit? I'd like to use one of the black rubber ones that came with the Note 10.1. I tried pulling it out but it doesn't seem come out.

Sure you can check out video.

Thanks for the reply but that video is for replacing the tips for the stylus that came with the Note 10.1. My post is regarding the stylus that comes with the s pen holder kit, which is a smaller stylus. Anyone know if it's possible to change that tip?

I've got the same S Pen Holder, it's not for the Note 10.1, it's an add-on for the Galaxy Note N7000 5.3". Don't try to take it apart or else you'll break it, it's a combination of plastics assembled with a special glue.

Unfortunately you cannot change the tips on the holder as they are not interchangeable due to being part of the stylus. The ones that can be changed come with spare tips, even the note 2 does not seem to have interchangeable tips.
I have not based my response on any research other than trying to remove the tips on the older pens.

Hello, i just got my sg note 10.1 and in the manual they show you how to change the tips. So in my opinion they should be able to change the tips. The only thing i dont know is why there are black tips and white tips.

He is not talking about the one that came with the Note. He purchased a something different.

Hello,
I want to buy a stylus, but all I see is those big tip styluses, and I want some smaller tip stylus.
I know that some stylus won't work with the i9300, like the S-Pen of the note2.
So I've found some really small tip stylus pens but they are for the nintendo DS ..
How can I tell if they will work for the i9300, or they are using the technology the note2 uses so it won't work?
Thanks
Can I bump?:silly:
Check out the Samsung C-Pen. That's the smallest tipped stylus you're going to find that works on the S3.
The Nintendo DS has a resistive touchscreen, so its pen doesn't have ANY technology... It's just a piece of plastic.
Since our touchscreens are capacitive it isn't possible to get styli that small without an extra digitizer layer like the Note 2 has. C-Pen is as small as it gets for us.

Can you explain a little bit more please? do you mean that the C-pen has more than just the tip? it has something inside it like the S-Pen, or something just on the tip?

Nah its just a smaller-than-normal rubber tip that only works well with Samsung's devices. I think it has to do with how their capacitive digitizers are set up... More dense than others perhaps? I've heard reports of people trying to use the c-pen on other non-galaxy s3/4 devices but they have to push down really hard to get it to work.

So how can I tell if other pens will work? I mentioned those NDS pens, do you think they can work? or they use the Note 2 technology?
for example this one:

Thanks for showing me these,
but maybe you can tell , how am I supposed to know whether a stylus is going to work on an i9300? I know for example that the s-pen won't work because it has some wacom technology or something, but how about the NDS stylus pens? will they work? or they use the Note2 technology?
Someone said that if the tips are too small they wont work, but you just showed some very tiny tip stylus pens that do work.

NDS styluses will not work as they rely on pressure. The stylus that i just showed you does work on the i9300. I personally have one and use it myself

Alright I'll try to explain the differences in touchscreens:
1. Resistive touchscreens. These rely solely on pressure, thus anything can work on them... Even cheap plastic like on the Nintendo DS systems. The downfall of these types of screens are that they're not ideal to use with your fingers since light touches are usually not recognized, so a stylus is necessary.
2. Capacitive touchscreens. These rely on completing an electrical circuit between the digitizer and the object touching them. Turns out our fingers are perfect for this, but small plastic styli like the DS stylus cannot complete the circuit and are unusable on these touchscreens. Special capacitive styluses (these are the ones that will work on your i9300) use material that can complete the circuit, like rubber/soft plastic or foam. The downside to this screen technology is that you can't use precise styli. The jot stylus mentioned earlier is a innovative approach to fix this but it's rather restrictive on how you can place the stylus to the screen... Watch videos and you'll see what I mean.
3. Active pen digitizers were specifically made for digital artists to begin with to offer a high level of precision when using a stylus on a tablet. They were really only used on PCs and Macs. However recently Samsung did something brilliant and combined an active pen digitizer by wacom (the best in the business) and a capacitive touchscreen to get the best of both worlds. I'm referring to the Note devices and the S Pen.
In short, you want a capacitive stylus. The C-pen is a capacitive stylus that's smaller than all others but only functions on the galaxy s3 or s4. The Jot stylus is also a capacitive stylus that has high precision but the point is a circular transparent disc... So its kinda odd at first.

+1 Good stylus indeed. But you have to do some modification before use so as to prevent skipping if you are writing. But cautious to have a screen protector as it might scratch the screen when using.

heres what you need:
Pen
cue tip
foil
cut the tip of the que tip and insert it in the pen where the hole is.
use a strip of foil and make it slightly touch the cue tip and wrap it around the pen
when using it make sure that you touchh the foil

I'm looking for a full sized stylus without any offset issue and have been following the other thread with interest but no-one yet seems to have found something which ticks all the boxes. I'm also a little confused about a couple of things and would appreciate some help. My Q's are:
Is the S-Pen powered and therefore charged by the tablet? I've got both the original and 2014 Note 10.1's and the stylus from the original works on the 2014 no problem and without offset. The thing is the battery is completely flat on the original as it's not been used for some time yet the stylus still works and I'm pretty sure it can't have any charge left in it so how is it then working?
The driver behind this is that I was looking to get a stylus holder for the 2014 stylus but can't find one so thought I'd get an original stylus/holder to use with the 2014 but the issue being I wouldn't be able to keep it charged as the original note is about to be sold.
I've read that the Surface Pro stylus works on the 2014 without much, if any offset. Looking around I found this stylus...
http://www.amazon.co.uk/2XNo1access...qid=1394362536&sr=1-1&keywords=surface+stylus ...and wondered is anyone had any experience of using one or know whether it would work with the 2014.
Any help guys, very much appreciated.
Edit: I've now found an old wide metal pen which both the original and 2014 styluss fits into, funny thing is when either stylus is placed inside the old pen they don't work on the 2014 screen but when they're taken out they both work fine. Weird, is this because the holder has a metal body?

The stylus for the note series phones and tables do have or need batteries. There are two videos on YouTube that can explain it to you.

If a pen you're using has no offset issue on another Samsung Note device but does on your N10.1-14 then something's wrong with your N10.1-14. If the pen included with your N10.1-14 has an offset issue it should have it on all Samsung Note devices. I got a S Pen wet once and it developed an offset issue and I had to replace it so they can be damaged or defective. As for a full-size stylus my favorite is the HM-5100 which is also a BT headset. It's pricey though. It's the one on the bottom.

My current S-Pens don't have any offset, I'm looking for an additional full size stylus that doesn't have any offset issues but it appears most do. Your picture won't enlarge for some reason. Is the third one down one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-E...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item485ec2b59b ...if it is I'd be interested in knowing if you've noticed any offset issues with it? It uses the original 10.1 stylus right? It's also less than half the cost of the Bluetooth stylus, which is just too expensive.

It's not a holder - it's a stand-alone stylus. I use it for voice commands and quick phone calls as its a true BT headset. It's great as a stylus because it's weighty and feels good against the glass panel. The button's also well placed so it's easier and more natural to use.

What he said.
The feel of the HM5100 is superb compared to the standard Spen. If it's charged then it doubles as a BT mic/speaker. If it's not charged then it's still the best feeling stylus that I've come across
I apologize if this gets asked a lot.
But does anyone have any experience with a fine point stylus for writing? I dont need to draw or anything but I need one I can use to jot down notes in class.
Side question in addition to the best writing stylus for the 8.4 what is your favorite writing app?
Thank you all in advance!

I have one of these:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-Styl...&qid=1407138526&sr=8-2&keywords=belkin+stylus
It's rigid, has some real weight and is precise.
Time to trade up to a Note from the tab.
Wacom bamboo (not bamboo feel that only works with note) is probably the best you can get.
Does anyone know of another touch pen for tablet (Asus MemoPad FHD10) than with thick soft tip? Not to get used to draw this "rubber". I saw the one with plastic wheel off the tip, but that's not it. Looking for a normal pencil with a thin tip, something like a Samsung or Dell tablet. Because I do not want to buy a new device. Is there such?
thx for advice
