This is awsome now if we could only get the maxtylus mxts100 stylus to work on the tab it would be just perfecr. A captive stylus does not do it any justice.

I'll grant you that but it's flat and it works. At least as well as can be hoped for for units sans a digitizer.

hey nice find !
how does this sums up to Galaxy Note's S-Pen accuracy ? is there any review out there that compares between the two ?
I've used Note and S-Pen before and They work wonder on Note's 5.3" inch screen. Imagine how much better and real note-taking experience on 7.7" larger screen
The Galaxy Note actually has a Wacom digitizer built in. The S-Pen, as a result, is not using the capacitive layer of the screen at all, and no matter how well made, no capacitive screen is going to exceed the precision of a Wacom...
No matter how cleverly made the pen, the tracking precision of the capacitive screens themselves are the actual limit here - a much cheaper resistive screen is much better for taking notes or drawing, provided it has a high enough resolution...
Awesome app. Works very well. Just downloaded it. Thanks

Screen extreamly white/faded. UPDATED: included video

I saw another post from gamestop but I received mine from play store. And mine seems to be an extreamly bad case: see the picture. Barely useable since its so white. Anyone seen this problem / have any ideas? Also, has anyone had to get a replacement from the play store and have any information about it? Do you get a brand new one?

That is probably just from the camera moving while taking the picture. I've seen at least one other user with a screen that bad. So it may be real.
Mine was looked white and faded at first, however nothing remotely that bad. After about 3 days it seemed to get better. Though it seems most times when I play a video it gets white and faded again, but goes away a few seconds after leaving the video app.
But something that bad, I'm not sure if that'll look normal after a few days or not.

I wonder what would happen if you play a video, like the Transformers movie. My screen gets worse after playing videos, but then clears up (though never really looks completely good).

Same thing happens regardless of what im doing. After like 5 minutes of staying on it will only half as bad, but whenever i turn the screen off for more than 2 minutes it goes back to this
So same thing just started affecting me today. First let me start out that I've had 0 issues until today. Went to try one of the root kits and got my N7 rooted updated SU and restarted now its washed out just like whats shown by OP. Could be coincidence who knows. Is this a common defect that takes time to occur?
I bought mine on Monday from office depot. It was great until Thursday morning when it started this exact problem. I'm going back to office depot to exchange it tomorrow. My mom bought one from the Google play store and she hasn't had any of these problems.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
That is defective. Exchange it.
Same problem here. It was fine since I got it and now the screen is all washed out.
search for the thread of "screen burn in + washed out", you will find more information on RMA there. I had the same issue and received my replacement in 4 days. the left side of the screen is still a bit lifted on the new one, but that is nothing compared to white out screen.

No touchscreen response at lower right edge

Hi guys, hope you can help me. I recently discovered a problem with my note. There is no touchscreen response at the lowermost right edge of the phone. I discovered it while i was drawing in smemo. I was surprised when i couldnt put color at the edge of the screen. The area with no response is about 2mm in length and width.
Is this normal? Should i return my note?

Would this Pen be a good Galaxy Note 2 companion?

I came across this a few days ago. Its the HM5100 BT S Pen from Samsung. Im really interested in it but since it was only a parting gift for attendees at one of Samsung's events, its limited availability and I see it selling for almost $200 on ebay. I'm wondering...is its worth that much?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
It's also a Bluetooth mic and speaker, multipurpose. I can see it being valued at $200. Worth that much is debatable.
117$ shipped
Original Note 2 S-Pen costs 32 euro in the Netherlands, available in white and grey.
This is for 10.1..i have the normal s pen with eraser for note 10.1 which i try to use it on note 2..i found when drawing or write something, its off set a little bit..i even try original S pen 10.1 in its slot..same result..off set..not convinient when writing something..idk if S pen with bluetooth is same off set..it looks like s pen for note 2 is different

I've seen on other sites that Samsung will most likely release this pen for purchase as well. The good packaging also leads me to believe this might be true. I like the idea of the bigger pen, but the phone call feature seems kind of pointless. 130 seems a bit high though... Also seems like sort of a burden unless there is a case you can store it in as well, otherwise just another component to bring with you.
Speaking on the topic of pens!
I have a couple all-white, axiotron pens from using it with my ASUS EP121 tablet. I noticed that they work in a similar fashion as the SPen does but one thing that they do that the SPen does not is an erase feature! I can flip around the pen and use the other side to erase what I have drawn but the SPen can't do that... I tried to use the link to find the pens that I bought but the link is not working anymore!
Just a heads up, that there are pens out there that can give you an easy 'erase' feature if you're using the device for a lot of drawing/sketching.

For that amount of money it's NOT worth it to me.
I'd just get a regular BT headset and go hands free. and use the SPen built into my phone.
Just got one!
I just received mine! I'm currently in Europe, so I got it from Amazon Germany for about 55 Euros, which s still cheaper than the cheapest order possibility in the states.
Anyway, I bought it for my Note 10.1 3G, but since that has been borrowed by the GF, I just paired it with my Note 2. Paired fine, calls seem OK,
However, the S Pen part won't work on my Note 2 when my original S Pen is attached to the phone. Only when I remove my factory S Pen, then the BT S Pen works on the screen.
Anyone else have this problem? If yes, were you able to find a workaround?
I want to be able to use the BT S Pen without having to detach the original one - seems ridiculous that it won't work like this.

The Hidden Note II

This idea came about after my brother was held up at knife point for his Note II. He was just commuting home at night but thankfully nothing really bad happened to him.
I commute and I hate the idea of losing my new Note II. So, I modified my old wood covered planner by cutting out the paper layers to form a niche for the Galaxy Note II. I considered including the silicone casing to tighten secure the device into place.
I control the device with a smart watch like the old Sony Ericsson LiveView and my wireless stereo remote earphones. My main line is another common smartphone. The Note serves as my secondary line. I can quickly make calls, read & reply sms (pre composed) via the smart watch.
You just need to use the Note in safer places and not flaunt by using it while in the mod planner for long periods of time. It would also help that you install a screen dimmerv app so as the light will not to give away that you have the Note in it and keep your phone in discreet mode with just vibration alerts.
While most are flaunting this great device, it's less likely that the would-be robber will suspect that the Note is in the planner. The secondary phone is your "smoke-screen" device you will surrender.
In this way, there's no need to do any struggle especially when he has a gun pointed at you.

The previuous post are shots after I managed to cut the inside of the planner. It took me 2 hours to cut and an overnight of drying out the Elmer's glue with a small paint brush on the interior side of the cut out edges.

Oh, I check the forum and we are all talking about gun control?
Sigh. Ok, back on topic - the screen light would give it away at night. I imply the screen filter to dim it down at 20%. I recommend that you put your browsers at negative or dark backgrounds. I guess you have a settings when you have it in there. It isn't going to be 100% elimination of light bouncing off the opposite page.
The point of going through this trouble is concealment of your device while you travel or commute. It's about an extra layer of precaution. Keeping it out of sight will somehow lessen the provocation of a hold-up. And in the event of a hold-up, be it with whatever threat of life, just give your cheap secondary phone.
There is no point of dying for something you can replace.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium HD app
Of course not in the dark. I meant at night in a lit place. The point is - concealment; stealth; secret; not obvious; discreet; hidden; disguised...
I put the Note II in the planner when I am traveling or commuting to another place. I remove the Note entirely from the planner without showing that I have taken it out for long use in a cafe, or safe public places. You can conceal this process of taking it out or putting it back in inside your bag.
When you do need to do something with the Note's UI, it should be brief enough and unnoticeable. Backing up to a wall is one way. With the first S Pen on a holder accessory, you would look like you're jotting down something.
Other than concealment, the planner keeps the Note damage safe from drops.

I was really thinking of using it only in situations where your handset's light would otherwise ruin the effect. But I can see the reading light drawing attention too. I guess it's use would have to be occasional and with a judgement call.

My further development for the planner is to use a page and cut it exactly the Note II's screen profile and to cover the rest. I seem to be able to trigger the back and option capacitive buttons through the paper. The front paper can be held in place by using Blutack.
I still have 2 extra planners to experiment on, probably integrating the first S Pen with the holder accessory into the niche. Any further suggestions are appreciated.

Damn, that's really unfortunate. My friend had his iPhone taken in the middle of the day. The guy asked if he could make a call, then walked out of the store, and when my friend followed him, he said he had a knife and to walk the other way.
I understand where you're coming from with this mod, but in all honesty, the best way to prevent getting into a situation like this is to be smart. Of course I don't know the full story, but my advice to anyone is keep your phone concealed whenever you can and be mindful of your surroundings. May seem paranoid (Hey, I'm kinda tall for my age but I'm also pretty skinny), but I'm always watching around me for anything/one suspicious - especially when walking down a dark/sketchy side street.
Glad your brothers safe though. Situations like this can turn ugly fast.
I still have my old HTC Amaze 4G, so I'm working on finding a VNC server app for my Note II and a client for my Amaze, and then simply tethering my Amaze to my Note. Then I can leave the Note in my pocket connected to my headphones, and control it with my Amaze.
