I am looking for a way to keep the screen on if the pen is removed. I did not see this in the options anywhere. I've searched here and the internet for such an app but didn't find any.
It's be great and simple feature, because that face detect feature doesn't work well

The touch input in this device is so bad i have to use my stylus pen to browse webs(i can never touch the back page button on google chrome instead it touches the forward page button instead),close programs(touch the top of the screen and pulling it down never works), opening the charm bar(swiping my finger from the right of the screen to the left never works too).
I tried calibrating it by searching calibrate on the charm bar's search feature but they doesn't work as well.
Any way to fix this? Its getting so annoying because i can't use the touch screen feature at all because its not precise.

Make sure your navigation gestures start from the black bezel of the Vaio then onto the touchscreen. You can use the calibration tool, change pen and touch settings, and change double clicking of objects to single tap to make the experience better. I'm not sure if the registry change to make touch more responsive for surface rt applies to your Intel tablet.
I'm with @vinscuzzy on this one... generally speaking I detest Sony products, but this sounds like a defective unit more than anything else. I'm not sure what you mean by "calibration doesn't work as well" (grammar, people: it conveys meaning). but if you can't fix this yourself, I would definitely suggest you take it back to wherever you got it.
When i use the calibration settings whenever i try to touch the cross it shows the input to be slightly on the right. i can't even close apps or use the multitasking. Closing tabs is hard or even clicking on links on google isn't accurate at all.
I bought this machine overseas and it isn't even out in my country so replacing it is too much of a hassle.
I almost considered it. But found there is a problem with the drivers, especially with Photoshop supposedly MS and Sony are using a specific driver but its not compatible with certain apps that use a different format of driver like Photoshop for touch.
The driver developers as far as I'm aware via googling don't seem interested in fixing this issue due to cost and/or it being niche market. Maybe try other software, I hope you don't have faulty system

This is not a nexus 10 specific question, so sorry if there was a better place for this.
I just bought and installed HD widgets' and its great. The issue is that it has now disabled the smart cover capability of my case. Now opening the case just takes you to the lock screen, a touch annoying as you might imagine.
Due to the nature of the search terms, Google is being quite useless, focuses on adding widgets to the lock screen, not on how to sort it with a smart cover.
A anyone know how to sort this out? Many thanks.
Based on your post, I'm assuming that you want no lock screen of any kind? You want to just open the cover, and have it on the homepage? If that's correct, I may be able to help. I have HD widgets as well, but never noticed a problem because I had a pattern lock set up already.when I went to change it, the options under security for None, Slite, and Face unlock were grayed out. What I had to do to fix it was to go under Settings, Security, and clear all credentials. After this I was able to disable the lock screen. I haven't noticed any adverse effects. Everything seems to be working fine.
Hope this helps.
Open pie menu using stylus only. Put stylus oriented apps in pie menu-like launcher. How can I achieve this. I'm loosing sleep over such a feature.
it would work like this...
All is normal. Un-silo stylus, then swipe inward from edge of screen using stylus. Pie menu opens, but only if initiated using stylus. I can do the rest from there.
I cannot find anything using search RE: this. One would think Galaxy Note XYZ forums for this, but alas.
Any takers?

You could achieve this with LMT and tasker combined together.

When pen is removed activate lmt when pen is returned deactivate lmt you will have to find the task for the stylus being removed and replaced. But since it turns the screen on it should be in there somewhere.
I guess I need to brush up on Tasker a little more before I attempt such a feat. I guess this would be a good way for me to start learning! Any tips or suggestions would be much appreciated.
If I can manage to accomplish this, I'll post any results.

I just got a shield tablet and wanted to use the pen remove/return as a tasker trigger for something else. Please, could you tell me how to set that up as a trigger? I just haven't been able to find it.
I know it has been talked about before but I can't find the topic
Does anyone know if this feature is going to be usible on the phone? There are settings for it. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/02/04/b61ecefd2919e7ca960d97296164cb47.jpg[/IMG
is it a software thing or is just not compatible with the hardware?
I talk with Samsung tech support but trying to get help from them is worse then try to get help from a 5 year old using google]

If you are talking about air view with finger and air gestures there is a way to activate them but air gesture with the music app or at the lockscreen won't work you can either try xnote rom it has it built in or an app called note 4 hidden settings on Google play also you can try quick shortcut maker app scroll down until you find the settings app and there you can find air view or air gestures hidden settings and many many more

Not all settings work which ones do you want? Air view with finger works for me but I get touching problems it's like I have to be slower with my finger when touching or dragging my finger the pen works fine it is only when I touch with my finger....quick glance also works but you will have to install the app from a note 3 rom what I can't get to work is music air gestures and lockscreen....
Just want the air view with finger

hi,
i have Note 4 N910F Snapdragon,
rooted. Airview with finger works sometimes (if you have enabled all correct settings) but just later, fail to work again. i also miss this feature
and have tried most of advice in different threads here at XDA.
No luck. Root is not required.
From what i can understand
Samsung conveniently left out some
"parts/scripts /? "required for Airview with finger to work. 100%
Yes the setting is there to enable etc.
But other" parts" . is missing.
Bad luck, i used to use Airview with
finger a lot on Note 3.
Good luck
Ya out of all of the gimmicky features the put on the devices that was one of the great one but in the name of innovation the a**hats at Samsung don't put it on the new device I swear they have no idea what their customers want or like. And like I said before their customers service and tech support is horrible I think you could get more help from a 5 year old using google then them.
I'm thinking this is the last Samsung device I'm gonna buy unfortunately unless they get their act together because I have been disappointed in the last 2 phones I owned by them and it sucks cuz the note 2 and s3 were awesome.

OK so install quickshortcutmaker from Google play search in activities for the app "settings" click it then a whole bunch of options will appear go down and search for activities related to air view there are more than one you will eventually find them some of them are for the pen some for the finger some for both anyhow click them and there press "try" to open the activity enable the options you want and press back once click on the star shaped button to save it to favorites so you won't have to search for it again but like I said before the options that enable air view with finger make your touch screen respond slower with your finger I don't know if it's just my rom but just a heads up also keep in mind that if you reboot you will have to enable the settings again just go to the activity again and click them off and on I will post some screen shots for you. And I think you are all right this was a cool feature to have on the note both air view with finger and air gesture it's a shame Samsung had to cut it off maybe they are starting to loose their edge after all and yeah maybe I should consider my next phone not being a Samsung one....
Hello.
My problem: Multi window when using fingers is rather problematic, mainly due to the fact that each time I wish to bring the notification shade down, I seem to keep resizing windows when I only wanted one app on screen.
BUT .... I really appreciate multi window when my S-Pen is out, and I don't keep doing things I don't want to due to the improved precision....
My question: Seeing as I have Note Buddy.... Is there an alias I can write to the auto launch app option to enable multi-window when the S-Pen is undocked?
If not.... What would you ask in exchange for developing a simple Xposed module to achieve this? I'm not exactly rich, but I guess I can apport something if someone goes through the effort....
PS: Having to manually enable and disable each time I remove the S-Pen is not only a chore, I also keep forgetting it and hence why I keep getting into the same problems....
Thaaaanks guys
