I'm left handed and so far, what little I have used my pen, it seems to be working correct, holding the button and dbl clicking brings up the memo pad for me.

In the settings you can change it to Left hand.
did you change the settings > pen settings > dominant hand to left hand?
Under settings is there one for Pen settings?

yes I change It to Left but with the Memo Pad Its Still off to the Left Unless I Put It Back in My Right hand and tilt It. Im using the Pen to Write this So It works Well Its Just off a Little. the Line 1S Dead on when IN my right hand.

It is designed to be off a few pixels. Not sure why but my Wacom on my Asus eeeslate is the same as well (btw, stylus works on gnote).
Check out other forums that use Wacoms or Cintiq.

Can anyone confirm this.
In stock kernel if you select left handed in SPen options it adjusts the input and makes the input line up more with the tip of the SPen. In the OC Kernel its like permanently stuck in right handed mode. The drawn line is not lined up at all. And it doesnt change at all if you switch from right to left handed.

Anyone?

I really wish I could figure this out. I have tried to do numerous things. I have reflashed, switched between stock and OC kernels.
Pen will work fine in left hand mode on stock kernel.
Pen will not work accurately in left hand mode with the OC kernel.
It's spot on if i WOULD use the pen right handed. But i dont. So this makes drawing, writing, taking notes ect... a little awkward.
same issue
have you found anything to fix this? i am also having the same problem, left handed only works on the stock rom
V0.2 fixed it for me. downloaded it from my phone. don't kbow if that is what fixed it or not but it works for me now.

Or you could just go to being a right handed person.

I had someone knock my phone out of my hand and it dropped and hit the floor. After putting the battery back in and restarting the phone, I found out that I could no longer swipe my finger down from the top of the screen to pull down my notification menu. I believe my screen is now out of calibration at the top and is not registering my touch. It does work in landscape mode. I reflashed my phone with latest version on ICS. Still not working, any ideas? Thanks

So the top of the screen doesn't work at all in portrait mode?

It is on, but does no register any touch on the top quarter inch of the screen.

Hmm.... Odd that just that small of a section stopped working. Pushing harder doesn't do anything?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
No affect what so ever. I believe my screen has re-calibrated so the top section is out of the operating area. At least that is my thinking.
Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk 2
Hmm... I don't think it recalibrated. Maybe more like the digitizer was damaged.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
I guess I will call Verizon in the morning and see what they say about sending out a new one unless someone has an idea. Thanks for the help.
Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk 2
Weird because after I changed my digitizer, now I can't swipe up on the notification bar and the screen looks perfectly placed. Are you running ics? If you are, go to developer options and select show touches and look to see if it actually registers on that area of the screen.

It does not show me touching at the top. It stops registering about a quarter of an inch from the top.

call verizon but if there is no physical damage, don't tell them you dropped it.
If there is physical damage and you get them to send a warranty replacement, they might charge you for it.
I will call them today but do I need to get my phone back to factory software? I am running a leaked version of ICS. If I need to take it back to factory software, how do I go about it? My phone is not rooted.
Why does my spen constantly register movements and button presses when I'm not in contact with the screen? I can just hover it over an icon and its like I pressed it or when drawing something and I pick up the pen and move it to the tools it's still acting like I'm drawing making random touch marks...
I've tried the ssid code to calibrate the s pen but no change...I even took off my screen protector ..no change...has anyone else experienced anything like this at all?? On an ICS rom btw..so any thoughts if its hardware or software...thanks

I searched this on Google before I posted my original question and didn't find anything so on a whim I changed my search wording and found this.

Friend of mine tried to smack the pen as stated in a few of the comments for that video and said it worked. Interesting stuff.

Lol smack the pen? I musta missed that comment? Being messing with the tape and not to much luck yet...called att and they got samsung on the line and said send us your pen and after we evaluate it we'll send you a replacement in 6 weeks!

Ooooook apparently beating the pen repeatedly does help it discharge the magnetic field build up :what:

There is an app in the store that lets you change the spen sensitivity. Its called screentune or something like that (its not free)

If the issue is the magnet in the pen itself, a sensitivity app would be a bandaid solution if it worked at all.

I paid the $3 or whatever and it works great for my spen issues, no problems since then. TouchScreenTuner is the name.

I have similar issue but buying whole roll of alu tape isnt worth it when u can get a new s-pen for 20$ on ebay... Im glad to see the fix work however, might try it to confirm if someone is willing to ship me a 2" piece lol
Can't slide the pen in with the tape on :banghead:

I've noticed on custom ROMs s-pen is useless far to sensitive maybe this will help. Going to test when i get home and report back. I prefer the tweaking method with screw driver.
Didn't notice any difference.
Really wish there was a way to calibrate the pen more than anything. I'm left handed and the cursor and accuracy of the tip is off making selections very hard. My tablet PC that uses a Wacom digitizer can be calibrated...don't understand why the Note can't have the same thing.
I use blackstar and novena and they both have a setting for lefties. Basically switches the point to the right side.

Is there a mod allowing (with a button combination) to disable completely the touchscreen while leaving the screen on?
When I show a picture around, if anybody grabs my phone, 99% of the times they end up touching the screen (especially if they are not familiar with the SGS3 thin borders) messing up the display.
***** slap anyone who grabs the phone.. Problem sorted
