I'm opening a new thread to deal with the inaccurate S-Pen issue caused by the official Samsung 4.2.2 update. Thanks to Pakure who exposed the issue here:
N5100 - 4.1.2 -> 4.22 : Findings What's New/Changed..
Here's what we know:
It affects all models: the N5100, N5110 and N5120.
It causes a small offset that seems to be different for different people.
The Note 8.0's S-Pen cannot be calibrated either by the stock firmware or Reset Spen (free) in the play store because its calibration is embedded in the Kernel and not just a configuration file.
N51XXXXXMH2 ROMs seem to be more accurate than N51XXXXXMH1 but still imperfect. Reverting to 4.1.2 or flashing SphereEngine kernel corrects the problem.
Here's what we (or I) don't know:
Is Samsung working on a fix? Please post news here.
____________________
Edit 11/1/2013: Solved
The N5100xxxxI1/I2 updates released in October 2013 restore accuracy to the S-Pen. Sadly it took Sammy two months to fix a problem that shouldn't have happened in the first place.
I Odined back to 4.1.2 and the S-Pen is accurate again. But I had to do a factory reset for the device to boot which is normal for a downgrade.
Oh dear lord. Are you telling me that when the OTA 4.2.2 update comes for the 5110 my pen might stop working properly? Say it isn't so!
I flashed 4.2.2 it's the worst rom I have been used for note 8. I returned back to 4.1.2. MG1 and it's. Better than 4.2.2

Well,
i'm looking to the code:
Code:
Code:
static ssize_t epen_hand_store(struct device *dev,
struct device_attribute *attr, const char *buf,
size_t count)
{
unsigned int val;
sscanf(buf, "%u", &val);
if (val == 0 || val == 1)
user_hand = (unsigned char)val;
/* 0:Left hand, 1:Right Hand */
printk(KERN_DEBUG"epen:%s: hand=%u\n", __func__, user_hand);
return count;
}
#endif
this is our code, where doing:
Quote:
echo "1" > /sys/class/sec/sec_epen/epen_hand
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
set our hand to right (0 for left).
But this file with the new kernel of the 4.2.2 doesn't appear...
i hope to find the solution soon... it's damn annoying using the screen upside-down to simulate a left-hand ;D

user_hand is already set to 1 in the source code....hmmmm

I use s-pen for drawing a lot, there is definitely an inaccuracy after the latest firmware update. The most accurate s-pen on note series now becomes like the old galaxy note.
I noticed this as well when I updated my WiFi model to 4.2.2 leak. I attributed it to the fact it was beta software and returned back to 4.1.2... But are you telling me this still happens on 4.2.2 OTAs? That is unacceptable and is a major oversight.
Seriously, who's testing these updates?!

I am trying my best to stick to 4.2.2 (on 5100) and awaiting a proper release for my region (instead of the open europe build OXA) , hoping that may fix this. otherwise back to 4.1.2 is imminent.
Can anyone with official 4.2.2 firmware release for their respective region also confirm this issue?

I updated to official 4.2.2 (from Malaysia) & encountered the same issue too. The offset is ~5 o'clock. What's worse is that the offset at top half of the screen is worse than at bottom of the screen.

Guess What,
I just revered back to 4.1.2 Myself.. I Guess am a bit too simple of a man for almighty 4.2.2
There were few really good things about 4.2.2 but the battery drain and s-pen issues just killed all the fun.
The offset is there in the N5120XXCMH1-firmare (UK 4.2.2 Release for LTE version) also. as someone else mentioned, it is at about 5 o'clock.
Attached an image with the S-Pen resting on the screen just enough to not remove the ring. for me this isnt really a problem since i mainly take notes and make simple drawings for work. But i can see that this would be irritating for artists etc.
But to go as far as calling it unusable is imho silly for the "normal" user.
offset
hi guys
i'm running the leaked 4.2.2 wifi only (5110) i can confirm offset is there, same dinamycs everyone is experincing.
i can only hope samsung is taking longer in releasing the wifi version cause maybe they are correcting this bug
l havent noticed this at all ' 1 dont see any offset problems at all In using Civutos ROM

have the same issue if i draw a line vertically overwriting the black line of the simple note patter, my line in 2 mm on the side.
hope they will fix that with update 4.2.2 official for wifi Only. Nosurprise samsung is taking so long to release it, considering for the other 2 models was released time ago with 1 week time from each other.
Actually I see it now it's below where you want when drawing. Yup it's there

First JB 4.1.1 for the N8010 Started rolling out , Taiwan is the First.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=10391
EDIT : HAD TO CHANGE THE TITLE TO SHOW 4.1.1 AS SAMMOBILE CHANGED IT TO 4.1.1 AFTER POSTING IT AS 4.1.2.
APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE .
Does it include other languages? like german? and which problems will i get because of different csc when i flash this?
The previous taiwan I flashed had all languages. The only difference I found vs. the uk or the german one was the extra Taiwanese keyboard.
thanks, i think i will try it when i get home! are there any taiwanese apps which cant be deleted? other than with titanium or something like that ^^
Last time I haven't seen anything. Once it is downloaded I will also try it.
i´d love to have some impressions about this rom, please tell me about it when it´s done ^^
Sammobile says 4.1.1, not 4.1.2.

Yes, they changed it but still it is a different PDA and CSC. Also it is the first one that has a 2013 date.
so, by having a date of Jan 2013 makes it 4.1.2 ?.

Canada is still waiting as well.
Are any differences vs. the previous 4.1.1 version?

Anyone know if this actually 4.1.2? And working in 8010
just having a play with it (Installed with odin straight over the top of the last BTU build)
looks like exynosabuse fails to root, so this may be the first version that's been patched!
will investigate more.
EDIT:
curious
/dev/exynos-mem is still world rw
as its still set as system graphics 666 in ueventd.smd4x12.rc
so even though the dev is still left wide open, it appears whatever chainfire was doing with his root exploit doesn't work anymore.
and on further investigation it appears this kernel uses the same patch that samsung used for the S3, so there's quite a chunk of security patches in there

1. This is a 4.1.1 rom.
2. There actually was a N8013 leak a few days ago for region XAR, which is Canada & USA, or really any are using the 8013 model number. I think Darkman released a deodexed version of it maybe.
3. I just polled a few BM sites & saw that there are Nexus 10's testing JDP66 build of 4.2.2
4. I love my Note 10.1, but really am glad I received the Nexus 10 to see the latest incarnations of Android!
Thank you Samsung for giving Android 4.1.2 to all of us!
I am happy for now... until we will start to complain about not getting 4.2. hehe

I have to say, the new update for N8010 (MA5) is just awesome. Runs fluid like hell (about 6100 points in quadrant w/o tweaks or OC, for those who wants to know).
No new apps, afaics.
USB-OTG got fixed again, works, but unfortunately not with "high-powered" devices like my 2,5 inch hdd, btw it works with my galaxy s3 and get power, but not on my note 10.1
Oh Irony I hope the devs can rule this problem out, would really apprentice to see my external harddrives working with my note
I guess, its all I can say at this moment, since I couldnt test the new firmware completely (cause of exams -.-)

It is great, one of the things I really like is the on screen commands. Makes going back and forth thru web pages and content a breeze. 2nd only to the quick launch bar at the bottom that lets you pan thru, split screen or cascade windows. When you are on the web you don't have to waste time shutting windows to open an app. Next is the paper artist app, I really like it but it pales to PS which received the latest update. SNote was always good and much better. Now when you see something on a screen you just hold down the pen button while drawing "any shape, letter, number whatever" and you can save the content to a scrap book. Those are just the ones I appreciate so far.
One thing I have always liked about Samsung devices is on the keyboard is the www. and .com so you just type in the site name and you don't have to keep repetitively putting in the same www and .com for every site you visit. Another thing is voice tweeting. On twitter I just voice type in my posts. Last but not least you can write on any picture outside of SNote. In gallery you can send pics as postcards by just choosing a picture and edit. It turns the picture on it's back and you can handwrite or type in your message, then email. If you want to write on the face take a snap shot and then do so or go to PS or SNote. Too much to like I could go on and on. The best tablet I have ever had and I have had many.

About country versions:
Experience shows that the waiting time for your country firmware version or an OTA update for your country depends on the priority your country has for samsung (waiting time of 1 day, many months or possibly never get an update for your country).
Samsung firmware for the Note 10.1 includes all languages and is almost identical in all country versions (with exception of the China version).
Also the German version offers all languages at setup. You just have to select Samsung Keyboard in your language version in settings and the firmware will be like your own country version.
You should backup all your data/apps/settings with something like Titanium backup, install the new firmware and then do a factory reset.
You can also not do the factory reset, but you may have compatibility problems.
To install firmware on your Note 10.1 you need Odin.
You can download it here:

The N8000 got it first because it is the most expensive, main device, almost a copy of the N7100.
N8013 got it second this time because you were lucky. N8000 and 8010 are international versions, N8013 is a USA only, regional subversion.
N8010 got it last but is now the newest version.

You can also use mobile ODIN if you are rooted and want to keep root.
This bypasses the using of a PC if you download the update to your tablet, unrar it and then flash with mobile ODIN.
If you want a perfectly stock rom then you just untick everroot option and tick clear cache/data and clear dalvik cache.

mobile odin is not free. everroot for keeping root is only in the paid version.
mobile odin installs a custom kernel, not the original samsung kernel.
Is this custom kernel based on the new 2013 samsung kernel that patches exynos exploit (the patch is in the kernel) ?

Wrong lol completely, lol joking but no N8000 got its ROM first not because its more expensive that's totally incorrect. Only because it has phone capabilities and is the starting point of the base rom. Once they where done making it for the N8000 then all they do is change the features in it to make it compatible with the other note 10.1's. We basically all have the same ROM just with changes made. And the CMA1, CMA3, and CMA5 at the end of the build names are just build dates not exactly versions.

Hey Guys,
Here is an extracted boot.img, recovery.img, and sboot.bin from the I467UCAMF1 firmware... they have since updated to I467UCAMF2 OTA via AT&T, but it might be worth still looking into making a root/recovery for the MF1 version or possibly seeing if it will also work on MF2 or if it is possible to downgrade via ODIN.

I know this is an old thread, but I just can't let go of this tablet! I need a tablet that is not too big or too small so that I can take notes with it. A 10" tablet gets heavy in your hand after a while. Further, very few tablets come with a built-in stylus. If I have to carry an extra stylus, I would either forget or lose it. In fact, I read a 2017 report that Note 8.0 is considered one of the best tablets for note taking! Enough promotion for this aging (4-year-old) device. Now the reality...
Until anyone comes up with a bootloader exploit, the SGH-I467 (AT&T version)'s obituary is essentially written. Yes, you can root it with KingoRoot. Since it's one-click, it cannot get simpler. However, if you can't bypass the bootloader, you are stuck with 4.4.2.
However, the Canadian version (SGH-I467M) has an unlocked bootloader. If anyone would just port a kernel for this tablet, it would give this one many more years of life. Even with the GT-N5120 Lineage OS 14.1 ROM and Boeffla kernel, I can get LTE connection and Nougat out of the box. Light sensor and MIC are still broken, which is expected since this is N5120's kernel. N5120 has two MICs and proximity sensor while I467M has only one MIC and no proximity sensor. I assume N5120's kernel on an I467M would be looking for the wrong MIC and there is some correlations between the proximity and light sensors. Bluetooth is also broken. I don't have explanation for it. I can't explain either why Boeffla kernel would enable the LTE connection since the European radio bands are different than the North American ones. I'm happy it's fixed though! The native kernel from the 14.1 Lineage OS can never establish the radio link though it does see the SIM and IMEI. (The 13.0 LOS cannot detect the IMEI and SIM at all and Boeffla in this case cannot fix it either.)
I am not a developer, but if anyone is willing to port a kernel for SGH-I467M to work with LOS 14.1, I'd be happy to be your beta tester. Thank you

SGH-I467 (NOT I467M, the Canadian version) has a locked bootloader. Once it is upgraded to KitKat, you cannot go back to JB! When I used to hack SGH-I467, I downloaded the -AMF1 firmware (the only one in circulation), thinking if anything went wrong, I could always re-flash with this official firmware. Boy, I learned my lesson when I bricked it. Since mine already had Kitkat, this official JB firmware in circulation is useless. I almost sold it for parts until I came across someone on eBay offering the KitKat firmware!

Perhaps some mods are in this tablets future...

It's funny Samsung released the kernel source code for a tablet with a locked bootloader. What can you do with it? I think they are doing it for the sake of fulfilling their open source obligation.
On the other hand, if SGH-I467 and SGH-I467M share very similar kernel, I can imagine someone can port it for SGH-I467M. I am actively looking for a kernel for the Canadian version, I467M, to extend the life of my Note 8.0
I have both I467 and GT-N5110, and are both on the latest 4.4.2 introduced last year about this time.
I am not a dev, but since owning the two devices, i have modded my tablets to be nearly identical. The GT-N5110 has Boeffla kernel and the I467 is stock.
Both run circles around any developed ROM, as for 10 hours of use on battery and no issues, plus mods from S5, Tab 4 and wee mods never released in any developed firmwares to complete a full featured gallery, and allow color blind, interactive control and grey scale mode.
It took messing with 5 different roms and combining missing systrm files for adding hidden features in stock framework and touch wiz.
Only needed a wee mod to remove the few stage fright mp4 issues to button up left over security issues.

Instead of having the the status bar at the top, it's all at the bottom, a visible home, back and multi task buttons are shown as well as the quick launch buttons moving to a menu that appears when you hit the time (which gets moved to the bottom right hand corner of the screen)
In the 4.1.2 firmwares, you enabled it by changing the dpi to something like 160, it makes the interface less "kiddie like".
You can still change the DPI but, ever since 4.2.2 for this device, you've not able to enable Tablet UI, as they've removed it from the framework. I flashed it about 20 minutes after posting my question and discovered that it's still gone, which totally sucks!

Thanks for the info.
Yes I remember my Lenovo ThinkPad tablet worked that way.
For me I'm maybe happier with th phone layout as it is the same as my phone. Did I just write that.
Anyway thanks for the heads up.
I have upgraded to 4.2.2 also but can't really see a difference.
Hoping we get 4.3 and can we hope for 4.4 too?
I don't know why the Note 8 is not considered a Samsung premium product. It is premium for me, can even use it as a phone in a pinch.
Hello guys, can you help how to flash it on my galaxy not 8 N5100 3g . And anyway to do it without losing any of my installed apps. and with without losing my setting. i mean exactly like i'm updating my device OTA or throw samsung kies ?

Use mobile Odin, that will update it without data loss.

Apparently I didn't look hard enough. There is a Tablet mode using Note 8 Switcher but just looks like a DPI change.
Upgrading an encrypted Note8
My Note8 is encrypted because of the BYOD policy in our company. It is my first Samsung appliance and is also my first encrypted appliance I am going to upgrade.
Did someone try this kind of ODIN-pushed upgrade
- on an encrypted Note8?
- or on another encrypted 4.1-based Samsung appliance?
Do you think it will work?
I believe Galaxy Gear support will be added.
The download link from the OP is not valid anymore because HOTFILE.COM has been closed.
SAMMOBILE is transferring its downloadable content to TERAFILE.CO but that ROM is not available yet there.

Just updated mine HK SM-P605 and finally lazy Sammy fixed some of the issues.
- That 2 sec lag waking screen from sleep is instant now.
- Screen jitter reduced, but still noticeable and better then before when it behave like it had epilepsy .
- Multitouch fixed? Havent checked, just that all talking about 30 sec icon drop thing have been fixed.
- The tab feels snappier and faster.
Might be more been fixed and dont have time to check all.
Gonna upload to mine GDrive after finished dl the whole firmware from slow Terafile. 66% left and still over 1H left to dl. >_<

Thanks for the heads up. I just installed it and can confirmed what you stated.
The wake screen lag is definitely gone and the tablet 'feels' faster. :good:
If anyone wonders the root status after the update, yes, you need to root it again. The OTA update (~64MB) does not work on my P605 even I tricked the system status to "Official". I need to download the whole image and flash it through Odin. No need to reinstall everything though.
Thanks for supplying a decent mirror. Flashing shortly.
I think i got this update via OTA just now.
Country: Latvia (Europe)
Update size: 64~Mb (NOT a KitKat update ofc)
Before update: JSS15J.P605XXUBMJ9
After update: JSS15J.P605XXUBNB2
Dropbox link with screenshots of "About phone" section before and after update (build numbers, kernel versions etc.: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/9fj520chbnvap8g/Kaa4YHRcCz
Iam not rooted (and never have been on this device), but this OTA file is somewhere on my device and i can find it (without rooting), feel free to tell me in witch directory i should search it for and i can upload it instantly.
Edit: About update:
-Unlock lag isnt gone, but its got better, but still its noticable.
-got some bloat (Forbes app and Lilla or something)
- writing with lag is more or less gone (but still not as snapy as my note3)
Thats after minor testing, but at least for my taste no huge improvements.

CF-Autoroot... Go to the original android dev forum and look for auto-root p600. DON'T flash this cf-autoroot as it's for the exynos version and can kill your Note P605. You want the link to Chainfire's site, look up the P605 model and flash with ODIN.
This will trigger Knox...
