hidden
not its not
Well, for some people, it's not "air touch", it's "S-pen way too sensitive" and it's a problem
(see that vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viDDKGPj2FI)
I guess you tweaked the potentiometer of your S-pen so much that it reacts without even touching the screen ?
BTW, I guess you've lost air view function by doing this, right?
Oh

I thought it was some hidden feature of note 2
I liked it very much its cool and samsung should placed one more button to activate n deactivate this air touch feature n its more fun then air view
Sent from my GT-N8000 using Tapatalk HD
Well, the possibility to activate/desactivate this feature could be a great idea indeed, but I fear it depends on the potentiometer of the S-pen. Maybe another button on the S-pen to activate this feature could be a good idea for the Note 3
Was it out of the box for you, or did you unscrew the S-pen potentiometer to get these results?
(for me, it was just the contrary, the S-pen was not sensitive enough, I had to press the screen pretty hard to get it working, I had to unscrew the potentiometer to get a smooth S-pen. I haven't tried to get results as yours and I'm not sure my S-pen could do this even if I tweak it more)
Well I dropped my SPen today
And found this feature accidentally
Its quite simple if you press your Spen tip little inside then this feature activate... for deactivation pull it little out
But its fun to use it
Now its like some high tech magic wand

Hi I hv seen new galaxy s4 video
It has a air swipe feature... where you can just swipe your palm over screen n it'll change the photos, videos
May be samsung will add this feature air touch on galaxy note 3
Sent from my GT-N8000 using Tapatalk HD
Not as convenient but you can get the same result by holding the tip of your finger over the nib of the spen.

This is a pretty old feature which I was using on my old Nokia, it was a 3rd party application that used the front camera to detect the motion of your hands over the screen and swipe photos or pages. Nothing new and certainly not a samsung innovation.

I though this was interesting - thought I'd make a new thread for random interesting little things.
I just watched a video about air view, and the samsung said that in the (stock?) browser, holding the pen above anything on a web page
will act as if you were hovering your mouse pointer above the same thing on a regular browser.

There is an interesting spen power saving option - it turns off the wacom detection if the stylus is Inside the slot. What this means in practical terms is that you save battery, but you can't use a secondary stylus in the meantime.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium HD app
That's a nice addition. Does it take a while for the wacom to start up again when you pull the pen out?

The technology used to power the S-Pen.
Found a couple of things that I'd thought I comment on.
There's an option where if you pull out the s-pen, it opens up the s-memo so you can start writing right away. Nice.
If you stick the s-pen back in, it automatically closes the s-memo too, and saves the contents. Very slick!
I'm also very happy the sms program has a 're-notify me every 2/10 minutes' if I haven't read the message.
Notification light helps a lot with this, of course, but it's nice to have the phone re-vibrate if it's in your pocket!
I wish we had renotify for calls too! I tried 'vibrate notifier' but it was kind of flakey on the note 1. Have to retry on JB/Note 2.

You can now adjust the brightness slider even when it's on auto brightness.

Today I set up an appointment for a colegue (we share Google calendars)
It had a time and location. A bit later the phone notified me it was time to leave for the appointment. It had calculated the time it would take to get to the meeting location from where I was and when I should leave.
That's clever

Damn, that is smart. Wonder if it used google traffic to consider any delays as well?
Everyday, google is getting closer and closer to knowing exactly what we do, where we go, who we interact with, etc... scary but who cares.
Holding the s-pen above a web page or any list...will scroll the page...without even touching the screen.

Technically, that's a feature of Google Now, available on any device running JB.
Using stock keyboard you can pinch to change to one handed keyboard and then rhe opposite to go back to the normal keyboard.
It's a little sporadic - anyone know how to do it seamlessly???

Hovering over an appointment with the SPen in Calendar will act like a mouse over and give you more detail. Works great in Month and Weekly views. Scrolling works here as well.

Yes but tablets don't have proximity sensors (other than 7.7,7plus ) and it seems functioning only in the test menus so I think Samsung hide It for some reason as they haven't announced it in the official specifications , by the way have you tried it yourself

Does it have a SIM card slot? If not, there's no GSM radio and therefore no dialer.

The only news about a "grip sensor" on Samsung's device was revealed on Samsung Continuum Device which was a device with a 2nd display on the bottom released in december 2010... that display, show info about weather, news etc when you press the Grip sensor without wake up the first display..
I can't find other function about this "grip sensor" ...

Hi, today I will learn you guys how to make your S-Pen touch instead of air view
If you click on top of S-Pen and but on screen from air you can control it
You can put any cap of any pen on the top of the S-Pen
The video tested on note 2 :
This video tested on note 1 (thanks to kirtan doshi )
Here video how does the s pen work (part 1) :
Part 2 :
Note : This videos by android authority

You are just keeping the tip pressed in all the time with that mod, no way to write like that.

I know but this for fun only
nor working when lying on bed
the button on the tip of the s pen serves as an action for the wacom digitizer on the screen of note2. pushing the side button of the s pen reverses the polarity of the s pen which then interpreted as another action by the wacom digitizer. this is all the concept i know. correct my if i'm wrong. thanks!
hello, I wanted to ask if it's normal that my pen writes in the air?
got my note 2 a week ago.

No the tip of your pen must be stuck. Try playing with it and see if it frees itself or you will have to buy a new one

I guess that's something we'll get with the next update (hopefully). That is assuming it's got to do with camera rather than any other sensors.
I don't think airview will work well with your finger as your finger or a capasitive stylus requires too much real estate to register. Where the s-pen can be very selective due to it's size.
This has been made on some devices, but I'm not sure the Note II's screen is compatible.
As far as I know the Spen has an onboard transducer that communicates with the phone, so unless you embed a transducer in your finger it's not gonna happen anytime soon.....lol.
I think he means the same feature on s4.
It should be possible for the note 2 as well unless the screen technology on s4 is something completely new.

My apologies - I did'nt know the S4 could do that, but I'm pretty sure the note 2 talks to a transducer in the Spen - read it somewhere.
