Please need help my pointer is not accurate how to callibrate the pointer of note 3 model sm-n9005 quad snapdragon from philippines....
There is no way and no need to calibrate it the way it was designed...
The problem might be related to how you're holding your pen.
Try holding it up 90 degrees, you'll see the dot will align to the pen's tip perfectfly.

i have been doing quite alot of drawing on my note and i find that they could have improvement the spen much more than they have done.. i few things i find missing or just lacking
- no matter the app the pen if set for L/R handed only appears to support portrait drawing, by this i mean, i have the pen set to left handed and when i draw a line and turn the device around when in portrait the lines i draw are off set to the left of the tip of the style point by a few mm.. but as i switch my phone around to the left/upside down/right the lines are off set wrong so that u draw and the drawing is not lined with the point of the styles.. why dint they offer a half way position to solve this?
Can you draw on the left side of the screen when holding the phone on portrait mode?? Few devices as I know can't draw on the side they picked on S Pen configuration for the hand they use. On my note on left side I can't draw near the edge of the screen about 2-3mm and on right side 0-2 mm depends from the position top or bottom. Have confirm that for 4-5 devices and Samsung dissent know aka didn't know till I mailed them they are searching if it is hard or software problem

It seems not to be working good indeed, but one thing that sorts the problem is to tilt the phone so the accelerometer detects the orientation of the screen and then draw the line, this way the tip caches the right place no matter if you draw in landscape or portrait, still its an extra step and I'm sure there must be a better solution driverwise.

heres a pic im working on but i could have really done with being able to use the g sensor to chance the phones angle, cant wait for them to into this

First on with my finger and second one with my s-pen.

Red one is with my hand.
Black with s-pen

Not sure what you mean.
The touch input works only on 97 percent of Notes screen.
The right edge and below doesnt recognize the input.

When I do the Touch and S Pen tests using the *#0*# testing menu on my Note, touch is fine and there is a tiny 'dead' spot in the lower right corner for the S Pen.
In comparison, your 'dead' areas seem quite large.
Well, mine is doing the same, the bottom/right is not working as it is supposed to. Should i get a replacement?
The first picture is for the S-pen the second is for touch...
There is nothing wrong with the screen its the way the software calibrate.
Try changing to left handed and you can write on the right edge but not left.
For the bottom most try turning the screen up side down then you can wrtie on the toppest (bottom) of the screen.
The s-pen is calibrate to be not on the center of the tip of the pen but somewhere above and abit to the right or left depend on your setting (left or right handed).
I went to samsung service center for this. The symptom is worse w/ the charger plugged in.
Their explanation is that the point of sensitivity is not the tip of the pen. The way the pen works is that you can imagine a laser pointing directly from the top of the pen. Therefore, if you want to see how it actually works, write w/ the pen being perpendicular to the screen. The technician showed me and it made perfect sense. However it is kind of strange holding a pen in that 90 degrees position.

Tell the technician to change profession to politician. He can manipulate ppl very good. I have wrote a essay for this issue. I guess your technician is the brother from the guy who did write the spenn programm because he didn't move the point of the spenn tip but he moved the axes of the spenn recognition area. So if you are right handed and you configured your spenn to right hand, you will not write on right and bottom if you left handed you can not write on left side and bottom. I guess the Same guy made the gamma-brightness curve. Send him a MEMO. Because sMemo has a rand and he tested spenn there and it works fine the offset overlaps with the yellow rand on right left bottom sides.
Hope it helps you

How does the Note III know you have a finger hovering over the screen, and where it is hovering over the screen? So we are being told the entire screen has a built-in proximity sensor and how does that work? I am waiting for the Galaxy Note 3 and an currently using an S3. The S3 has a proximity sensor but that I believe is only a tiny hole up at the top of the front of the phone - not the whole freaking screen!?!?!?!?
Very confused, must be magic or made by the Gods.... ??? LOL
Anyone can shed any help on this?
I think it does have some sort of prozimity built in the screen.See S pen...you can select without even touching the screen.
A digitizer is a device that creates a small electromagnetic field and then measures disturbances in that field. Thus knowing when your finger touches (disturbs) the screen (and electromagnetic field)
In the Note 2 there is a second digitizer that detects the different way the S Pen nib interacts with a magnetic field at a distance, and thus is able to show where the S Pen is hovering.
In the Note 3 they use similar technology but is now able to detect your finger at a distance instead of just the S Pen nib.
I think I got all that correct, if not... someone will correct me
And, if I am wrong
Must be magic or made by the Gods
Magic to impress your iPhone friends.
I miss this so much, it's like optical "mouse" together with main button on HTC Desire, one of the best features in decades. Seems that last time we could hover over screen was Note 3 and S5. Sad.
I am happy, apart from WiFi problem, Note 3 user but I have some questions regarding spen. I havent head any experience with spen before but I guess my expectations were higher then the reality, so here we go:
1. Shell the spen be sensitivity be equally good to my fingertip? In my case, finger servse it purpose better.
2. When I use the spen at an angle ( so colled natualr writing angle) the reception is poor. is it normal?
3. Shell I apply slight pressure when using the spen, or shell "the touch" itself be enaugh?
4. The worst part is about the capacitve buttons, I need to tap with the spen, 2-3 times before the device registers it.
Please help me out, as I need to make my mind before I go complaining
Thanks!
I went to the shop and tried the note 3 before I bought it. (3 different shops).
At the shop I played around with it, mainly with the s-pen.
I can definitely say from my own experience (30 min all up) that I found using the pen quite easy, and while I I needed to get used to it for the first couple of minutes, I experienced no issues.
I also used the pen from another samsung tablet that was next to it and found no problem.
I will say that my finger is much less accurate than the s-pen.
If you have a problem, try and go to a shop and try their note 3 pen on your device to see if its different.
You could try a tablet pen as well to see if that makes a difference for you.
Good luck.

The S-Pen is Wacom pen technology based device, which allows presure sensitive writing/drawing if the program/App makes use of this.
You will see a pointer if you come close to the screen with the wacom pen and moving across the screen, in windows tablet the mouse pointer is already there but will move with the pen movement too.
You have to touch the scrren with the pen tip an provide at least minimal preassure. The benfits are:
- if the programs do not support preasure sensitive input you may assume that it's not better then your finger.
- If the program supports preasure sensitive writing/drawing the line will get thicker or more pronounced e.g. if you draw using the spray paint. -
- Other Wacom pens work too, e.g. the S-Pen from my Samsung Slate7 win7 X700T1a tablet. It's slightly larger and better suited for work.
- The main benefit over the smaller pen that come with the Note is that on the opposite site of the pens tip is the erase button, that allows you to erase parts you don't won't.
- In addition to the keayboard you get also handwriting recognition, which is toggled by a button on the keyoard.
Unfortunately Samsung does not provide many details on the interfaces or versions, but I would assume it to be around 256 presure steps. Wacom tablets may be as high as 1024 -2048 steps.
I hope that helps you to have a better understanding of Wacom technology and what to look for. For me the Wacom based pen was a large reason why I choose a Notes.
Thank you for your answers but I am rather then understanding the technology trying to identyfi if the s-pen that came with my note 3 works as yours.
I just wanna ask if it register / works the same as yours and if you are experiencing the same when using it.
1. Is is as respoosive as your finger when touching the screen? Is just "touching" just enuagh, or sligh pressure need to by applied when navigatin between screen or while browsing?
2. And the captivate buttons, do they register your taps every time?
Thanks!

1. A slight touch on it. Just like how you touch or tap it using your finger.
2. Yes, since Note 8.0, S Pen works with the captive buttons. Ours one too.
Different between using S Pen and finger for the Air View is:
1. Finger - you can preview picture / SMS / header / email / speed dial etc
2. S Pen - besides what the finger could detect, S Pen also act as the mouse hovering mode and you can hover it above most of the icon and shows you a description what does the icon do
My pen seems to be increasingly inaccurate. In some areas of the screen, when I hold the pen over the screen, the on screen indicator can be about a centimetre or so away from where the pen actually is over the screen.
There's also far less sensitivity in regards to how far the pen can be from the screen on the far left and far right of the screen and,the very bottom right and left of the screen don't seem to pick up hover activity at all.
Once the pen is TOUCHING the screen is seems to be mostly accurate, it was definitely closer to the mark when I actually bought it.
Is there any way to calibrate or reset the pen sensor?

Smack your S pen in a table with it still on your Palm. (not too hard). Or you can try (not recommended) take off the button and turn up the sensitivity. There's a link to this in detail give me a few minutes and I'll edit this post with the link.
