Spen with eraser and Note 2

[inmnbob]

I am having a problem with my Note 2 in general but in particular when in use the Spen that comes with the eraser. When u try to write about a quarter inch from the same left border the ink doesn't register. If I draw a horizontal like across the page I will get the first Harter in then it skips for about quarter in before resuming again.

I thought that is was just a dead area but when I change angles on the pen or use more pressure the line draws solid.

I tried a couple different tips but no difference. It is slightly better with the Note 2 Spen.

Ideas?

I have a similar problem. My Spen with eraser will only write in the middle of the screen, and eratically even there. The stock Spen works 100%.

Moreover, the Spen with eraser works fine on other Note 2s.

I called Samsung about it, and they eventually gave me an rma number for the phone, but I am not sure if I'm going to send it in. No guarantee the replacement will be any better.

Btw, this is all after trying the porentiometer adjustment.

It must be a Sprint Note 2 thing.
My Spen eraser does the same thing.

I ended up getting the Spen kit for the Note1 and it works great. It also feels much more like a real pen for me.

I found this thread doing a search, I usually hang over on the VZW part of this forum. I also have been having the same troubles with the spen with eraser. I changed tips and that made things even worse. Question for those using the spen kit for note 1, does the stock spen for the note 2 fit in the barrel of the pen holder in the kit?

I looked at the tips of the stock spen and the spen with eraser and they are shaped differently. My spen with eraser will work if I hold the spen completely vertical to the screen, but how often can I do that? I am usually in a hurry to jot something down and do not have time to put it on a level surface and hold the pen vertical.
