Ever since the recent update, the touch screen seems less sensitive and slightly out of calibration.
anyone know how to re-calibrate the touch screen?

I would try this..
Go to settings, then language and input, then Samsung keyboard settings, then handwriting, then recognition time. This may or may not solve your problem but it's worth a shot!

My issue as of late is that when I click on small links surrounded by other links on a web page using the stylus, an adjacent link often opens. I am using the hover-dot for the stylus, and both it and the tip of the stylus hit the link that I want, but it actuates another one. The work-around is that I have to double-tap-zoom the screen and tap the link I want, then I can zoom back out.
Anyone else having this problem?

I am also using the zoom feature to open the links. It's a bit annoying, but a workaround...for now
Hey, I still am on the very first version of the note firmware because I don't want to screw up s note.
I get the problem you are describing once in a while, specially if the tablet hasn't been rebooted for days. My solution is a simple reboot and then the responsiveness of the touch is perfect again.
Also to mention is another issue which I get after a few days once in a while, the screen resolution all of a sudden seems messed up. The colors turn out weird and u can see definately more pixels. Maybe the display improving system of the note screen gets turned off some how and i get the pure 1280x800 screen. Luckily a reboot also fixes this. Also both issues happen very very rarely, maybe once a week.

I've found mine doing this too, however it's done it twice in the four days I've had it, it's making me think about exchanging and/or sending it back. Mine is an N8000 International 3G one.
My new Note too

I got a new Note 10.1 about a month ago (July 2013) and I believe it already had the updated version. The touch worked perfectly for about two weeks then - bang - can't touch link at all if it's small, can't get right link if they are close... Sometimes I don't know if I'm trying to touch a link that's "grayed out" or if I'm having a touch problem. I've even had to rub at a link to get it to work. But the keyboard and system buttons seem to work fine???????? How bad do dry hands/fingers affect touch?

Are you doing it right? You need to hover the pen close the then screen, hold the spen and release it.

The note two's s-pen had two screws under the button to adjust sensitivity so it's possible it could be a dodgy pen opposed to phone, worth a google if you don't want to exchange or they have no stock to exchange.

Problem Solved!
After a few tries i found the sensitivity-setting for "my" S-Pen. My pens sensitivity was to high, so i had to decrease it a little.
Have a instruction video of how to adjust the sens of a S-Pen.
The person in the video had the opposite problem so he turned the screw clockwise.

Hey y'all,
Picked up a SM-N935L a few weeks ago. Last week, for no reason I can think of, the touchscreen started causing problems.
As of now, a 1 inch swath of the screen on left side doesn't respond to touches unless they are long touches. This is annoying on the homescreen, but IMPOSSIBLE when trying to type on the keyboard as the number key, shift, A, Q, and 1 key barely ever respond to touch.
AT first it was intermittent. Now it's permanent.
The S-Pen works perfectly, even in the affected area of the screen.
I tried flashing the original firmware the phone came with before the OTA, no dice.
Long story short, the phone is now back in it's box and I am back to my old n9005 Note 3.
Has anyone else run into this?
Before someone says that maybe the screen connector is loose on the motherboard, I cracked the phone open (heatgun, etc) and checked that. Not the issue.
I even tried the secret code *#6233*# which allows you to "update" the touchscreen firmware. No difference.
Any thoughts?
you didn't mention the software version you're using.... did you update to the latest OTA for the L version of the Note FE? Google Translation change log
Build Number: N935LKLU3AQG6 Android version: Nougat (Android 7.0)Release date: 2017-08-04
ㆍ Improve the phenomenon that the tone of the song is reduced or silenced in a specific environment
ㆍ Correct the phenomenon that the photo position information is displayed when the camera is shot
ㆍ Intermittently break when touching the upper / lower touch
Build Number: N935KKKU3AQFEAndroid version: Nougat (Android 7.0)Release date: 2017-07-06
ㆍ Apply stabilization code related to camera operation
My bad for.not being specific. Yes I am on QG6. I went back to QFE hoping for a change. No difference.

Try *#2663#, which will update the TS firmware. Used this recently to correct a touch screen reversal (which was a weird experience at first).

Sorry. That's the code I used, not 2633. It didn't help at all.
Have you installed any apps that control screen brightness, remove the brightness slider from quick settings? If yes, uninstall and see if that fixes the issue.
Very late to the party but I'm having the same issue. Tried everything and no luck. The left side of screen not responding unless I use the pen. Stock OS no extra apps installed. Gutted.
I also have this problem..after one month use..right side screen doesnt respon..
Im runing on ARA1 firmware
hi pro, did you fix it, i have same issue
I had the right edge screen problem too. You can use *#0*# to test. Select touch to start the test.
Press 'volume up' button once done.
My problem on the right side and only not responsive to touch only. S pen works fine though.
I went to samsung and they said they had replaced the screen. And it works ! So guys, maybe it's really a hardware problem with the display screen.
Now after 2 month, the problem had resurfaced
I really like this phone and my note 4 previously was great and not having any hard problem.
I'm going to send this again to samsung for repair since it's still under warranty. Hope the problem will diasppear and not repeating again once we warranty expires.
Hello, i am having the same problem. It started about a week ago when the left side of my phone became unresponsive to touch. I have to long press the left side of the screen to register my touch. I tried the "Touch" test at *#0*# and the left side cant be touched. Now the lower and right side of the screen became unresponsive too. Anyone knows how to fix? Using Android 8.0.0 on this Samsung Galaxy note FE
exactly happen to me too...
went to samsung center and replace the screen, under warranty
Same Here
Hi
the same issue started happening to my Note FE yesterday.
have you found a way to fix it? or have you returned the product?
BAD NEWS everyone
Hey y'all,
So I have bad news for you.
The problem is hardware not software. I ended up giving my dad the phone when he went on a business trip to Hong Kong. He's got a guy there that owes me a favor or two so he got the screen replaced. That fixed it immediately.
Sorry for not updating you guys. I ended up just picking up a brand new Note8 back in Nov when I had enough of the touchscreen thing. When my dad finally brought me the FE back with the new screen it worked perfectly.
No software changes at all. Just replaced the screen.
Hi !I am having the same problem here with the right side of the screen.
First it started when the right side started to be less sensitive but then after a while it suddenly stopped working for the touch. The S Pen works ok.
Its really terrible to use it like this. At least if there was an option to squeeze the screen. Where did you guys bought the phone? I am in Europe but i think the company imported it from Saudi Arabia. Dont know if its a regional issue but i am courious. I tried clearing the cache and updating the touch but no difference. Haven`t tried factory reset yet....

hi what is your update about your screen problem ? and for how long did you use your note fe before this problem appeared? maybe you dropped it or something?
Hi. I'm having the same issue. I'm in Saudi so maybe it's a region thing?
Right side not working with touch but only for the s-pen. Also now the s-pen or finger has wrong touches in the screen.

I have been using it for about 3 months before it first started to lose its sensitivity and then to not function at all on a 1 cm wide area on the right side. I havent dropped it for this to be an issue and since i already seen other people complaining its definately a manufacturing issue. I have sent it to the service and hope to have an answer and i will update here about it.

Hello, do you know if your phone was imported from Saudi Arabia? It might be a problem with the phones for this market.
Thanks all for your reply. Really its very scary, just brought a new one from Saudi Arabia, where made in Vietnam. Sometimes I feel some lag with back button . But I dont think its common defect, I heard about same problem in Note 8. Those screen curves brought troubles to all of us ,
I installed tempered glass screen protector but it didn't cover the whole screen , anyway I preferred it rather than the normal elastic one.
Exactly the same issue on my FE
Nope. It happened to me as well just this morning. It is exactly as you've described. I did a factory reset but the issue still persists.

What's with your attitude? I'm trying to help you here.
Your screenshot is in, what I assume is, Russian. If you don't translate it to English how do you expect me to understand it?
I guess I'll leave you to it.
Thats a normal Welcome Screen by Samsung, the Point is the Stripes on the Display over the Left side, there are colorfull stripes on the left Side, please look at the Screenshot, the Translate is a normal Welcome Screen after Factory Reset, so the Russian is not important for my Problem, my Problem are the Stripes which you can see on the Screen, Sorry that i don´t understand you so what you meaning with translate, now i know it but the Point is that the Display is showing the colorfull stripes of the left side from the Display.

OK I see. We're on the same page now.
I just assumed that stripe was caused by the camera.
It does look display related, don't see how software could cause this.
Several suggestions you could try.
Boot to Download mode see if the same anomaly is present.
Reflash the stock firmware.
Lastly pull the back off and reseat all the connectors, particularly display and battery connectors. Often they can come dislodged after rough handling or being dropped.
Okay thanks, i would like to try it out

Sounds good doesnt work now the Tablet is dead by the Touch and all useless because the Touch doesnt work anymore and nothing Change by the Display same result after Disconnect All Connectors

You have to be careful with these connectors they are very fiddly and have to be 100% in right and have a special way of being inserted.
If the touch isn't working after disconnecting and reconnecting then maybe a connector needs reseating?
But the Display has the Same Error and nothing change, can i do something else or must I go to replace it but i think buy a newer One Like SM-T580 is better then, because this Device is so old from the Android 4.x

Hello, I have a Note Fan Edition (N935F/DS) and as you can see from the picture, the right edge of the touchscreen never worked, but 5mm from the edge doesn't work every time, only with hard press and S-Pen. Can be fixed anyhow? Thanks.

I had this issue on the left side of the screen which was later fixed by itself. Now, right side of the screen is having same issue. I don't know the cause of this issue but hoping it will be fixed as previous one. There is no valid solution is available online to this issue. Tbh it's pretty annoying.
