Hi.

I intend to flash my girlfriend's N5110 to LineageOS. However, she is just very fond of the S-Pen, it is also very useful since she uses a lot of Japanese input (she uses MyScript Stylus Beta).

Now, will the S-Pen still work with the most recent release? I've spent quite some time searching on the net but couldn't find a definite answer. I understand that all the Samsung apps, which are based on TouchWiz, will not work. But the question remains, will the S-Pen input itself work with less options available, with less "comfort" so to speak, or will it not work at all?

Some hints would be greatly appreciated!

Spen works very well with LOS 14.1
If you use stylus beta you can easily switch between keyboard input and stylus based handwriting input. Sketchbook, lecture notes or similar apps also work fine with direct stylus input.

I'm also struggling to find the answer on if the Spen will still work with PEN.up (Stock Samsung App) if I update gf's Note 8.0 to LineageOS?

Anyone know for sure?
