Spen being all funky. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Trying to write with my spen, but it is freaking out entirely, and I cannot find a calibration tool for it. any help?
Nevermind Guys, Apparently it fixed it self, even thou that took like a good 20 mins..
Feel free to close the thread/delete

Are you using a case that contains magnets? Because that could be why your S-Pen is freaking out. Last night, I removed all of the magnets from my case with a knife just to be safe.

Help with Falling Stylus

I have been having this problem of stylus keep falling off from the silo.
Does anyone know how to fix it??
Thanks.
I don't know the solution (never needed it) but i remember seeing posts with tips when i registered last year. You must make a more extensive search
I put a piece of scotch tape around mine and I've had no problems since I did that. One wrap around was enough to keep it snug - right in the middle of the stylus.
here you go, maby it will help someone:

I've been having this problem,and just tried this solution. Give me a day and I'll tell you how it works out
Edit:
Well, it's been a day, and the stylus is being held in there better than ever. Definitely a recommended fix if you are having this problem
yeah, i find that the scotch tape trick works perfect. i put it right around the "neck" of the stylus - that would be nearest to the gray head part.
Falling Stylus
I've read on a website, don't have any link anymore, that if you will turn your mobile on the back, and remove your battery, there will be 2 openings where you can see some steel. If you take some sort of pen, or mini-screwdriver you can push against it, and when it clicks, your stylus must be a little tighter in his case. Didn't test it, because i lost my stylus because of the same problem

Solution to stylus falling out
I bought some sticky tack (you can get it at office supply stores) and placed a small amount in the channel. That seems to hold my stylus in with no problems.
Tape option is the best. I lost two stylus due to falling stylus and this time I put a small amount of tape on the outer edge and its perfectly fit in the phone. No more falling stylus.
I opened the phone, added a drop of hot-glue behind the little plastic pin and it holds the stylis like it was new.
The same trick I also applied to my universal, only there I added a bit to much, and the stylus now doesn't come out easily, so I need to use a little more force.

micro bubbles under my invisible shield? o.o

hello. I just applied my invisible shield last night on my touch hd. The problem is, there are these lines of microbubbles and i cannot squegee them out. Is there anyway to get rid of them? all help is appreciated
If you look at the instructions it says that they go themselves in a few days of use.
well that is a given. but i want to know from someone who actually used it and has actually seen it. not from instructions lol
They will go away if they are not to big. I've had some bubbles on the back and on the screen, but they were gone after a week.
omg, that is a real relief. tyvm. i was so worried when i saw all the bubbles on my touch hd. i was like ITS RUINED! XD
i dont like the invisible shield but im tryin to give it a chance. I put it on friday and i could barely slide it into the pouch the HD came with. I tried to be very careful putting it on but i messed up an will be contacting zagg for a replacement. I took all the shields off except for the screen an the small one for the camera.

Wet type screen protectors and the Note

I have long been a fan of the wet application screen protectors (Im sure theres a more official name for them). I like the grippier feel, nearly impossible to jack up installation, and ability to remove and re-apply if it's not straight or starts to peel up. I have used them for years now and loathe the thought of dry stick ons. But it seems if you use your stylus alot then you will want to avoid these as it causes the protector to bunch up and cause what seems like dots all over the main part of the screen. I discovered this because of that damn addicting game called Drawl Something that has me using my stylus so often. The good side is you can just peel, wet, re-apply. But this gets old. I have a replacement on its way just to eliminate any chance of this being a fluke. I plan on following the rules to the letter this time and apply it and apply minimal use and touch for a full 24-48 hours to see if this makes a difference.
Has anyone else encountered this on the Note or other stylus device?
Yes I have also ran into this issue while it's slightly annoying I also just fix it. I also noticed it only happens when you push fairly hard though.
I've got the wet-application Zagg on mine, and I left it alone for 2 days afterward. I haven't had any problems, although I haven't needed to press very hard with the S-Pen either. I don't really like the "stickiness" of the Zagg, though. I'm afraid of what it's going to do to the pen nub in the long run.
It does leave little tracks/trails in the screen protector, but I can't see them when the display is on and they seem to slowly fade over time.
I don't like how it slightly takes away some of the screen clarity, but you just can't beat free lifetime replacements at Best Buy.

Zerolemon case/extended battery, fell off car at 35mph!

i bought the 10000mAh battery with case earlier this year and it's been great. i can abuse that battery like no other and it just won't die.
however, the real reason for this post is about the case.
i recently had a potato moment and left my phone on the roof of my friends car that i was working on. went for a test drive, out of my neighborhood, down teh main streeet at about 35 mph and suddenly i hear a weird little noise and look up in the mirror to see my phone bounce down the back window, off the trunk, onto the street and then into the ditch.
immediately my heart stopped and i ducked into the first turn off i got to., got out and walked along the side of the road, hoping to find my phone, expecting the worst...
Found it face down in the grass and immediately picked it up and turned it over... glass was intact! the plastic frame of the case had one crack in it that i was able to put back in place inside the rubber case. the rubber had some road rash but was overall intact as well. only thing wrong was my Spen was missing as it must have been ejected by the impact.
no big deal as i ordered a new one.
Main point though, this case works!
So close. My UAG had a similar experience. Ran over by a lorry due and as good as new!

Phew! That was nerve racking lol
Luckily the truck behind me didn't run over it!
Awesome, one of the best things to happen to cell phones. Actually the deciding factor in me choosing the note 3 over nexus 5.

At this point in your tale my heart stopped and I got sick to my stomach at the thought of my newly rooted N3 bouncing down the street. This could so easily happen to me. Great to hear it worked out okay!
Would you try that again if you're so confident that the case works? Personal experience does not equal fact.

jeez dude, relax. it worked for me the one time i needed it. that's all i need. i have no idea if it iwll work again because there's no way to guarantee it will hit the pavement at the exact same angle.
it worked better than no case and i'im pretty confident in saying it works better than some of the other cases i've had in the past that I know wouldn't hold up to the same situation.
did you have a bad experience with yours or are you just trying to stir up soemthing out of nothing?
i read alot of amazon reveiws and forums about this battery .plenty people have dropped there's off scaffolding and at heights ect and survived glad yours is held up but its the battery life i bought this for and its doing really well 19 hours on screen time and 3 days untill charge im really happy .it does feel vey sturdy though it dont have to be delicate with it anymore its like a tonka toy?
Can you upload pics of your damaged case ???
And here I was sure I was alone.
I've managed exactly sane scenario as above and my phone also lived to waste more of my time everyday >]. Thou in my case, ZL casing survived intact. And few years before broken whatitsname holder sent my galaxy tab clothed in otterbox defender through car window on particularly emotional curve. Again, there were survivors.
Those cases work and I can't consider "naked"device complete without one now. And ZL add really big battery to the mix..

Finger print issue.

This issue is killing my phone. I dont use incipio case to use fingerprint. And i dropped it second time yesterday. Already got some dints too. Just because i cant use my 35 dollar case. I am getting my nerves.
Att already fixed issue. I hope they will fix it soon.
Sorry you've dropped your phone...?. There a temporary fix with foil on YouTube. Also I saw something about restart the setting of your fingerprints with the case on. Hope this helps...
Mine does work, albeit not well, with my Spigen TPU case. Seems I get better results if I squeeze the sides with more of my hand, like cup the phone a bit differently. Still a pain compared to no case, but at least I don't need any ugly foil ruining the looks of my crystal clear case.
