[Q] S pen compatible with root?

Hey guys, quick question. If I root my note 3, will the s pen capabilities still function if I keep stock ROM? Thanks

Yup, root won't interfere with S Pen stuff.
Thanks
Thanks. Will the root change anything on the phone other than the obvious root access? I rooted my s2 but that's an old phone now and I dunno if the note 3 will react any differently.
Wont reduce functionality

The only thing that won't work like it should is the Knox security program.
It is like a secondry OS that is locked down, you can't even share pictures you take in Knox. As it needs the complete system to be secured to work properly, Knox is killed when you root.
This has no bearing on the warranty void situation however...

Has been known to stop working randomly til reboot, done it to me on my SIII also. You could try swiping your hand over the screen left to right that also works.

Yup randomly does it, you'll notice sometimes it will get stuck on "saving screen shot" and you have to kill it or reboot for it to work lol
As for gestures, I have quick glance and a couple enabled, doesn't affect my battery life tbh. If you're gonna spend over £600 on a phone at least use some of it haha

[Q] Make a flip wallet

If I would buy this: link and put it in the back of my Note 3 and put a really thin magnet in my flip case.
Would that mean that I then would have a super cheap case with screen on/off features?
And if I would press the lock/unlock button when it's locked, would that mean that the S-View screen pops up?(I want to use it like the flip wallet that's sold by Sammy)
Bump...
No.
Sammy puts an identification chip into note 3 and wallets to make sure u dont unofficials
____
Also i tried the magnet of an ipad mini cover on my phone, no effect at all

Screen went crazy

Hello.
So I just bought my Note 3 7days ago. Today first problems appeared. Screen just went crazy. Its like im touching it and swiping it even tho my fingers are not even near it. Its just opening stuff up and doing **** without me pressing anything. If I try to press something it just opens up something else (I press on Phone and its opens up Magzine for instance).
I already tried factory reset.
I have 9005 model and phone is not rooted or anything. Everything is stock. Same as in stores.
Any Idea what can I do? I realy dont want to ship it to service via my carrier cuz ill just have to wait a month or so.
Thanks in front for any suggestions.
Get it replaced, hardware defecz

Well I did try software uptade via Kies 3 but it says note 3 not supported. No idea why. So if the phone gets shipped to service they will try fix probably not replace it. that just sux when u spend 500euro for phone :/
Bro u seems to have the same problem as me. Check this link out and tell me if you notice this as well Watch "Note 3 stutter problem" on YouTube

What I did is flash with odin the official stock and it solved the problem so far... But when I rooted my phone it came back so I needed to flash back to stock. I posted my problem to see if anybody can help but nobody has asnwer to it. Dial *#0*# and test the TSP HOVERING with an other note 3 or s4 because mine is not working good neither.
Sent from my SM-N900W8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes its the same problem. Except for me it also opens up random apps and presses on keyboard and it also swipe across the screen causing it to auto unlock the screen sometime when the screen is ON and locked. And I didnt spill anything on it. Its brand new stock phone.
On the video.
I didnt get on record that swiping will cause apps to randomly open... I do recommend you to do *#0*# and test your touch screen (in the menu *#0*#), test your TSP Hovering and the other hovering just to confirm that is not a hardware problem.
Make sure to complete the course without screen doing stuff u didnt do or vice versa: the screen didnt respond to what you did... For me, TSP Hovering was lacking responsiveness compare to my friends S4...
If everything is working fine, than download your compatible firmware from sammobile and flash it with Odin and you problem should go away. Careful sammobile as 2 flashable versions, one for kies and other for odin. I used odin so I recommend it.
Always read instructions btw on how to use odin.

Google Maps compass points in wrong direction

When I use Google Maps, I have to turn the phone about 45 to 90 degrees sometimes for it to point in the right direction. Moving it around in figure 8 doesn't fix it. Anyone else have this issue?
Yes everyone has it, but its simple to solve
×#0×# and u will see "not calibrated" at magnetic sensor
Just stay in the mode and move your device around in all 3 axis until it says "calibrated"

It doesn't say need calibration or anything. But I still have to point the right top corner (~45 degree rotation) to get a true point of direction.

So the black circle should just have a 2 and green line?
Even with that, it's still off. You'd think they top of the phone should be straight ahead right? Cause it's not.
It points north
Teleported from my SM-N9005 from the Enterprise
You dial those symbols from phone dialer? How do you get out of that mode? Is it present in verizon model? Does it remain calibrated after a reboot? Will compass mode in Google maps work properly after this procedure. Does calibrating compass in gps status and toolbox work just as well?
My main concern is getting compass mode in Google maps to work properly.
Thanks!

I got mine to a blue line and 3, but I can't get it to go any further

Bummer.. if calibration is lost then there is no point.
I checked in to the LG G3 forums and they have the same problem. My old Motorola smartphones never lost compass calibration in my car. This sucks.
