Introduction
This module provides an S-Pen-only touch mode for Galaxy Note devices. I wrote this module for my girlfriend who had expressed frustration with the inability to draw naturally on her Galaxy Note 10.1 (with her wrist resting on the tablet). I cooked up this module to give her an easy way to switch between touch and no-touch modes while drawing.
The module works by injecting code prior to "dispatchTouchEvent" on both the Activity and View classes. If the name of the device sending touch events is "sec_touchscreen" the event is swallowed and never reaches the Activity or View (by returning false).
The module is toggled at runtime with the file "spenonly" on external storage. Included in the module is a floating, moveable toggle window that will create and delete this file for you for quick switching between modes.
Installation
At this point the module will be enabled but turned off. To toggle the state of the module launch the "S-Pen Only" application which will pop-up a small floating window in the top-right corner of your screen with a single Switch widget. While the switch is turned on touch input will be rejected.
If you lose your Pen and cannot disable the module you can always remove the "spenonly" file from external storage via ADB or PC file manager.

Notes
Since the module is toggled via the presence of a file on external storage, applications that don't have READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE probably won't work with this mod. Since most drawing applications save their files to external I haven't seen this present any real issue.
On a fresh installation you might need to toggle the module a couple of times if it's not working right off the bat.
