Hi guys I'm recently switched to n20u and found some problems with my pen. As mentioned above if I tilt the pen as the way I use my ink pen with my notebook (ab 45 degrees) with palm touched the screen I can't draw anything (still detected as a currsor). I once used note4 and as the best of my memory I was capable of doing so with my note4 idk if this is a problem or not. Another problem is that if I draw quickly the line (actually curve) is interrupted (not a continuous curve but 2 or more curves). Do you face these problem? I'm intending to send it back warranty. Thank you
Not normal, at least on the N10+... just tested that. The spen on the N20U should work better than the 10+'s.
New N10+ N975U 256/12 gb are still available. I grabbed one 4 months ago. They run very well and come loaded with Android 10.

I have got a (most likely) hardware related issue with the touchscreen of my Xperia U.
Some parts of the screen are not or barely responsive, which is very annoying when typing. I have to tap some letters twice before they actually work. (It's especially around the 'i', 'n' and 'e' when I have my keyboard open by the way.)
I was running stock Android GB and I'm now running stock Android ICS, after I updated my phone the problem was still there which is why I assume it's hardware related. There does seem to be a slight improvement though, but that's probably because ICS feels a bit faster (so far).
Like five minutes ago I noticed something very strange, when I put my finger near the 'N' on the keyboard, but not touching the screen itself, it kept touching it like 10 times a second, sometimes holding the touch so it would result in a ';', but that's not really relevant I guess. It stopped doing that after I turned the screen off and on again by the way.
Now I've downloaded a drawing app on my phone, to see if the phone would skip the parts that were responding bad, but that wasn't the case.
(I would send a picture, but I'm not allowed to send outside links as I'm a new user, sorry. )
There is a chance that this problem is caused by a kind of overpowered charger I had been using last summer, because when I plugged that in, the phone started doing the same, only waay worse. I haven't used it for almost 3 months though, and the problem occurred just a few days ago, which is pretty weird.
I can probably get a replacement touch screen for free because my brother had this phone too and he bought a new phone because the glass of his screen broke.
But I hope I don't have to use that, haha :angel:
Is there any solution to this without taking it to a service center or replacing it?
Thanks!

Lots of touchsscreen thread in the forum, search and see what they did
Hello, I'm trying to make a smart cover from a cheap flip cover. The magnetic sensor inside the Nexus 6 is in a weird position (top center, in the middle of the clock) but that's fine. However it doesn't work correctly. If the phone is on and unlocked and i place a magnet over there the phone locks, and that's ok... But even if i don't touch anything after 10 seconds it turn on again for about 5 seconds... Then it goes off for 10 seconds, then on for 5, then off for 10... That's a real battery killer! I've tried different magnets (even some powerful neodymium magnets) but the issue remains. Any advice? I'm on stock 7.0 by the way, only bootloader unlocked and nothing else. Thank you!
Just got a new Tab S7+, and I found that I was getting a heck of lot of repeating keys from the Samsung keyboard and the Gboard keyboard. Hadn't noticed any problems elsewhere.
I finally got fed up with it and get Touch Screen Test, and I can see clearly there that the screen is registering a touch with my finger maybe 0.5mm away from it. That fits with what I see on the keyboard, where I can get keys to fire with tiny finger movements just away from the screen.
I can't find any settings in Android 10 to adjust this. It's surprising for a table that's been out of the box a couple of weeks, and possibly it's worsening.
I had an idea after I'd posted this - I often use the tablet connected to the 25W charger that came with it. If I use it on battery, the problem is much diminished , and possibly gone. Electrical interference, then???
Is it a return-as-faulty, would you say? Any test options I can use to help with this?
Thanks
Alan

Many thanks for that. My tablet has T970XXU1AT12 / T9700XM1AT12, no update showing as of a moment ago. I expect it will reach the UK soon and I will be able type!!
I think the touchscreen of this tablet does have some interesting behaviors, as I've also observed some touches being registered when my finger was a still a short distance away. I suspect this might have something to do with palm-related gestures (like palm swipe from right to left for screenshooting).
I play rhythm games on this tablet mostly, and I'm seeing some cases of taps not being registered properly (unexpected misses), which happened less often, when I was playing those same games on my phone (before migrating them to the tablet).
I don't constantly put the tablet on the charger, as I've lessons learned from my previous tablet, Pixel C, whose battery went swollen after having placed it constantly on the charger for quite a long while that I ended up replacing the swollen battery with a new one by myself. While it was a lot of effort in overall, but the swollen battery had made the glues between the screen and the chassis mostly visible, that removing the screen became much easier.
I couldn't confirm this issue.
I've installed a safety glas on top of the screen. Fingerprint and S Pen is working but I've no issue's with a to sensitive Display
Update came yesterday. Still not fixed
I'm also using a tempered glass screen protector and my personal experience with such protectors on different devices has always been positive, with few issues directly related to such protectors as long as the quality appears to be good enough. I don't connect the charger while gaming, but I do attach a Type-c audio cable for connecting the tablet to desktop speakers.
On the other hand, some lower quality charging cables would certainly cause issues with touchscreens regardless of device. Usually with stock chargers and cables (or those from very reputable vendors) you can mostly rule out this possibility.
EDIT 6: Moved the rest of the issues I'm having to a separate thread.
Hi,
Just bought Tab S7 LTE 4 days back. Now i am facing weird issue with S-Pen. Screen registers clicks without even touching S-pen to the screen. i mean if i hold the pen just 1 or 2 mm over the screen, it registers the action, or starts writing or drawing.
It is mostly on the upper most part of the screen if you hold the tab vertically. Anyone facing this issue? i have hear this issue in older tabs and note series.
Any help?

I was experiencing odd touch issues but ended up getting an ota from at&t with September security and think the issue resolved.

I updated to September security patch on the first day. But started facing this issue yesterday only.
Hi,
I have shown my tablet to the Samsung store from where I bought. They confirmed that the issue is with the spen. Other spen were working absolutely fine.
They have asked me to register complaint to service center.
It's not the Spen, Mine worked perfectly until the last firmware updated, then started doing the same thing!
i dont have any issues with spen on Tab S7 T875. But the Nib of the spen got un usable after 15 days. was not registering writing properly.
I thought spen has problems. Then i changed its Nib to a Note3 Nib and it works superb.

Any updates guys?
Started with mine as well, after the update on 08.12. , though not sure if it was immediately after, or couple of days later...
Also, what's interesting is that once you press spen firmly to the screen, and hold it for a second or two, spen functioning returns to normal but only temporary, as some time after, issue returns...

I'm using the Tab S6 and my SPEN started doing the same weird ****. If it press it down hard normal function returns for a while and then it goes back weird like what you have.
I narrowed it down to a dodgy nib. Install a new nib and press it firmly in. What I believe happens is that the nib needs to contact some active part of the pen to provide the capacitance required to trigger the screen (think of those cheap rubber tipped pens you get off ebay). When it doesn't contact, it thinks that air actions is in play. So I installed a new nib making sure I press it in really tight... and so far it continues to work as it used to.
In short: Bought a used Tab S6 and the screen recognize my fingers flawlessly, but it won't recognize my Spen
Things I've tried already:
Going into settings and changing stuff, did nothing
Factory reset, nothing
Try another spen, nothing
Try the spen on other Samsung devices, works like a charm with both writing and button usage
It is to note that the screen is kinda badly glued into the device so maybe they changed the screen and didn't connect the ribbons correctly? Or the screen they installed just doesn't work with the spen?
Searching online I came to a post which suggested using the menu from *#2663#, I dialed those numbers and all the Wacom text says as following:
FW Version of WACOM IC: Not Supported
FW Version in Kernel Image: Not Supported
Tuning Version of WACOM IC: Not Supported
I believe this is at fault from being unable to use the Pen? There's two buttons down that text, only one is clickable, "Wacom FW Update (Kernel Binary)" when pressed says it's updating and must not be turned off, but it remained in that state for over an hour with nothing happening, the device turned off and nothing changed
Returning the tablet is not an option so I would like to know if I can fix this or just accept that it will not work with the spen
Solution 1: Clean the screen.
Solution 2: Reset touchscreen calibration.
Solution 3: Install the latest updates.
Solution 4: Two button shutdown (Surface Pro only)

I believe this is for Wacom tablets on Windows devices? My problem is on a Samsung Tablet Tab S6, which runs Android and uses Wacom tech for it's Spen
accept the fact that the tablet will work without sp3n. they cut the flat. it happened to me with a note 4
same as your problem but on tab s7, have you found any solution?
I couldn't, sorry, ended up gifting the tablet and getting a S7 FE. Kinda miss the Oled screen and the extra powerful processor. The S7 FE lags heavily with HD content at 60fps on YouTube lol
What I could find though was a menu you accessed via the phone dialer on the tablet, you know, those secret config settings? There was an option to reboot the Wacom controller. It didn't work for me but it may for you. I don't remember what was the code to put on the dialer tho, you'll have to search for it
Edit: lol I put that code in my original comment
My tablet was bought used and the screen was badly glued to the frame, so my hypothesis was that the previous owner replaced the screen and 1. Didn't properly attach the Wacom connector 2. The screen they used couldn't be used with the Wacom digitizer
Hope this is some help to you
