If anybody has an S-pen that has broken, please PM me. I am trying to make my own and need the circuit card to make it work.

I make pens and pencils out of wood on my lathe and want to try my hand at a S-Pen stylus. I have been unable to find any pens that look decent and thought this might be a good solution.

Alternately, if anyone knows of a source for the circuit boards (both pen and eraser) please let me know. If I can put together a workable kit for these I might consider selling a few.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] {Diemex}:
I cut one of mine open. I planned on printing a new shell for it. I think it will be cheaper for you to buy a new pen for 15$ and take it apart. Shiping etc will be quite expensive. If you want any dimensions on the circuit board I can measure it out and make pics.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] REHolt218:
Thanks, that would be great. There are several available for under $7. I have been planning to go ahead and buy one. I have a pen from a very old tablet computer the board works but it appears to be larger than the current version.

I have a asus laptop I bought 6 years ago. It runs win7 but not very smooth while using chrome. So I am thinking of replacement. I am a note 2 user and I am satisfied with it because of its enough large screen. I wonder if I could really abandon x86 PC and only use note pro. I would like to hear uesr's advices and reasons before I decided to buy it.

Many thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] REHolt218:
I have a NotePro and use it for a lot of different tasks including for work utilizing the Office apps. I find it to be her user friendly and functional for about 98% of what I do in a typical day. However, I don't find it useful as a complete replacement for my windows computer.

I scubadive and use a gopro camara to take video. It generally requires a lot of editing andbwith the large file sizes it's just not practical to use the NotePro. In fact I haven't found any video editing software that does a decent job.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Alexsandra:
Is note pro able to read external hdd with usb connection? Can it read ntfs formats?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] REHolt218:
I have a 1Tb drive that I use with my NotePro. I was able to read it when it was formatted ntfs, but not write to it. If you are willing to root your NotePro you will be able to do both.

As an alternative I formatted my drive using exfat and now have no problems. I think exfat has a drive size limitation but not sure. It works fine with my 1Tb drive.

I always cringe when I see threads about potential for a mobile device to replace a PC or laptop. The good thing is that they are posted to begin with though which means that you're looking for opinion in order to figure out whether things will work for you before you purchase the product and your expectations are left unmet.

I'm a gadget geek in a way. Active mobile devices in our house we have a include a Nexus 4, Moto X, iPhone 5s, iPad2 and the Note Pro 12.2. Retired devices include a Nook Color, Nexus 7, Galaxy Tab 10.1, HTC One X, iPhone 4, and a handful of iPod touches. Some of the retired stuff is still here collecting dust, the rest given away or lost. I started out an iOS user but now leave that stuff to my wife and am a full android fanatic.

My daily driver is the Nexus 4, and I carry with me to/from the office daily the Nexus 4, Galaxy Note Pro and my retina Macbook Pro. When I go mobile I carry just the Nexus 4 and Note Pro.

I purchased the Note Pro primarily as a media consumption device and secondary as a note taking device. It's serving both purposes very well. Most of my leisure time is either spent browsing forums such as this, reading tech websites or the news, magazines or watching videos. I find that the Note Pro is perfect for this.

For production work though there's no way I can see this replacing my computers. For other people though it's possible as long as their needs aren't too advanced. I'm reading in various forums that for people that do a lot of writing the Note Pro is working out well. The word processing capability is there as long as your formatting needs aren't too complex and you have no need to collaborate with others (track changes and comments etc.).

My idea of production is large Excel worksheets with lots of references to other workbooks or sheets, complex Word documents with advanced formatting, tables, images and most importantly full track changes support, and a full Adobe Creative Cloud suite for graphics/video editing. I guess you could say I'm a bit of a power user.

The Note Pro fits well into my lifestyle. I use it more than my macbook now and only grab my macbook to do long posts or other advanced work.

I'm having trouble with my USB OTG cable. Its an older USB 2.0 version cable adapter and while keyboards/mice work with it I'm unable to read hard drives and flash drives so I'm waiting on a new cable to come in from Amazon. Hopefully that will fix my issues with NTFS mounting.

Wow, I am glad to see another Nookcolor user. I used to have one until I got iPad2. I sold it out. As an prototype android tablet user, I have to say the development of microchip is more than my expectation. I remember that nookcolor only can play low quality videos and browsing internet is slow. Now the current mobile device can easily play any 1080p video and can do a lot things that I used to do on PC. I know mobile device can not replace x86 PC entirely,but it could spend me a lot of spare time when I stay at home. At office, I watch my laptop all day. You know excel, word ppt pdf and IE! So I do not want to watch any Microsoft stuff any more. I play video games on PSVita and Xbox,reading articles on my note2 or kindle,watching movies on Ouya(android based game console, tegra 3 chip,it can launch XBMC).My wife always holds iPad. But sometimes I still have to use my old laptop to download moives or something else. When I saw Note Pro on the engadget, I think it may suit my desire→Mobile and Powerful. I suppose its screen is better than most of windows laptop. The only thing I am concerned about is the price. $650 on Amazon. I have to buy another bluetooth keyboard or a cover with a keyboard. As an alternative option,I could pay more 200$ for macbook air or surface pro 2. It is obvious they are more powerful than Note Pro. Both them are also enough mobile and have a long lasting battery. :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

I hear ya. It's a tough decision. For me, I love tinkering so much that I have chosen to stick with an android device. It's nice having more choices now.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] skyhigh73:
Very nice discussion...

I'd like to share my experience that may help.

I have a Dell XPS (i7, x64) with 8g RAM and 750 hd, Note 2, IPAD AIR and Note pro p-901.

I was using the dell xps everyday untill a year ago until I bought the note2 then the IPAD AIR which are really amazing in almost everything, net surfing, browsing, movies, videos, music,.....etc.

Then I got the note pro which has replaced them all.

It is really faster than the dell xps regarding reading, browsing,....etc.

But to be clear, in case of editing or writing formal documents or doing any job I get back to the dell laptop...

When travelling abroad for a workshop, confrence or or a congress I depend only on the note pro......

The choice between a laptop and a tablet is a personal choice and depending on your usage.

The laptop is the ideal for a business use and the note pro is the ideal for taking notes and for entertainment...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] muzzy996:
Very well said.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] *Omnipresent*:
Agreed. I chose the note pro mostly for portable media consumption, at home or on the go. For those reasons, i am very satisfied with my purchase.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] nymviper1126:
I have had no trouble with "formal documents. I edited large transaction letters with letterhead and all no problem. I can see the heavy excel leaving device short, but if need badly can just RDP in to your laptop at home. If you need a laptop, you need a laptop. Not many of those type will look at this device to do work, though it is capable of most of it,
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] skyhigh73:
Very nice design...

Here is a nice tip, you can enjoy controlling remotely and comfortably if you use the Samsung mouse. It will add more pleasure to your Note Pro (laptop).

I am using the keyboard and the mouse in almost everything (except playing games)...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] *Omnipresent*:
Thanks for the compliment and tip. If you look more closely my pic, you can see my Logitech ultrathin touch mouse and mousepad to the right of the note pro.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] skyhigh73:
LOL

At first I noticed some thing black beside the Note Pro, but I did not recognize what was it....

And you explained the black unknown object to be a mouse and its pad.

Best Regards
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Alexsandra:
Wow, nice picture. By the way,are you using Samsung cover?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Alexsandra:
Can you please take a zoom-in shot for your mouse and keyboard?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] *Omnipresent*:
Thank you Alexsandra. The logitech mouse is very cool imo. Im also using the Zagg coverfit keyboard cover, not the Samsung.

I bought the NotePro because I felt 10.1" was just too small for me. My old Asus TF700T had pretty much reached the end of its life, so I needed something new.

Does it replace my laptop? God no!

I'm a gamer, photographer and designer. I absolutely can not work without the Adobe Master collection, which is still not available for Android. And 99.99% of the games I play are not capable of running on Android, either. My work involves Photoshop Indesign and Illustrator, so no means of using it there.

I do use it as a laptop/netbook replacement on the go, though. It serves its purpose brilliantly for most of my non-serious everyday use. I'm using it with a Logitech M705 Marathon and a Logitech Wireless Keyboard K360. Still looking for a decent stand, though. I hate flipcovers.

I'm also using a Wacam Bamboo Feel stylus made specifically for the Note series instead of the Spen. (The Spen is perfect on my Note 3 but just feels too small on the 12.2)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] skyhigh73:
By the way

Note Pro is very nice for those interested in Facebook and Google +

Cause it is very easy to share everything anytime every where

Multi windows feature is really amazing

Pen window

Screen capture and write

Hand writing

Google now

I like this note pro and it is really much better than IPAD air.....
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] gtm55:
I also have a wacom pen, but when I try to write is about 2-3 mm misaligned (do you know any solution for this problem?), I bought an Samsung hm-5100 pen-headset but I would like to fix my wacom pen also. Thanks!

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
!!!!!! NOT FULLY TESTED !!!!!!!

This patch is based on Tasssadar's hardboot patch for mako. And I borrowed some code (hardboot page address usage) from alvinhochun's Xperia M port. The kernel source is 9.2.A.0.295 from Sony. Thanks all of above!

Here is Tassadar's original thread which explains what is kexec hardboot and what it does. Apply this patch to your kernel source and it will be capable of booting another kernel/system without reflashing.

But there is one problem: in stock 4.3, Baseband is shown as "Unknown" and the phone gets no signal. On the host ROM, it works properly. It seems to be related to TA reading, but I can't think of anything wrong with this...Logcat shows three TA units were missing. But in host ROM, they are shown as missing too. Full logcat attached in zip. I didn't touch any file other than fstab, fstab.qcom and init.target.rc in 205 ramdisk. Stock 4.1 works like a charm though.

Anyone knows? Thanks in advance~

You said you had a Omnirom for tx (homebuild)... Could you share it... If it's stable?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
New build arrived (2014/05/21). See the separate thread. Following is the old message.

==================

At least it won't reboot ramdomly..but there may be some minor bugs.

Link: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3Hq4ip (Password: kpnn)

Internet connection is not very good here so uploading to devhost/mediafire is nearly impossible...

You need to flash the kernel first, then use the recovery to flash the ROM, then flash the kernel again. After system boots, push the modules file to /system/lib/modules

This is based on tital's port. Thanks a lot~

Later I will open a thread to introduce this ROM...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] alanc.1996:
Cool! Will try it out!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
Months ago, when I restored an Nandroid backup of 9.2.A.0.295, the same problem appeared. But at that time only mobile service was dead, while WiFi worked. Now mobile service and WiFi are all dead. The screen stops at "Turning on Wi-Fi". However, in dmesg & lsmod, I can see that WLAN driver module has been loaded, with MAC address changed correctly...And in Service Menu(*#*#SERVICE#*#*), Configuration in Service info is dead. Tapping on it will cause the app to stop responding. What is the point?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
OK I tried 9.1.B.1.67 firmware. Everything works, including baseband, Wi-Fi and *#*#SERVICE#*#*... However, it's not so attractive as stock 4.3...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] RpRAUC:
Possible to run this way Doomlord custom kernel (based on stock 205) from stock ROM (PureXT etc)?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
As long as the kernel matches the ROM (phone operates normally when you install the custom kernel as usual), it should be okay...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Galcactus:
Is it your plan to keep this TX exclusive, or would you be willing to port this to T?

Great work!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
This patch may work on T without any modification, except for the macro name in memory.h :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Galcactus:
Has there been any further development on this?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
It's already perfectly working...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Galcactus:
In which case, is there any chance of having a guide on how to use this? A few brief steps outlining which files need to be used where, would be greatly appreciated.

(On a side note is there any chance of a version built especially for the Xperia T? I know that there aren't many differences, but it's better to be safe than sorry).

Much obliged :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
This is a little bit complicated... but I'll try to make a post about this in a few days.

The kernel commits should be the same for TX and T :

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {Diemex}:
You might want to check out this rather lengthy thread on styluses. There are some desings/ideas for pen holders that dont destroy the original spen. I would not advise taking a spen apart. However if you are a king with wood working and can produce objects that are accurate to a fraction of a millimeter then go ahead. The board has to fit correctly and support the tip. The tip of the pen with the coil seems very fragile to me. I would advise making a holder around the spen shell instead of designing a new pen from ground up.

I made a simple printable spen holder which can be found here, you should be able to make it from wood too.

Here are the photos and dimensions of the circuit board.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REHolt218:
Thanks for the help. I'll take a look at your references. As I stated earlier, I already have an older pen with a broken tube. I have dismanteled it and made some measurements. Being a much older mode,l for a tablet computer, it appears to be a little larger than the current models. I have been able to come up with a tube to support the internal circuit card. It fits nicely. The only issue I have is the tip. Since it can't be metal, it will take a little more work. I think I have all of the deminsions worked out and have tested the functionality on the mock-up. Now I need to get to the lathe and see what I can do.

I like your idea of "printing" a pen. Based on all of the deminsions needed that seems like a great way to get the design you want. I wish I had access to a printer. We have one at work but I'm not sure I can get access to it for such a project.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REHolt218:
Great job with the PDF, thanks!! The newer design does look a bit different than the older one I have. It appears that the width of the coil/tip is slightly larger than the circuit card giving it a tapered look. The overall design lends itself to a mulit-peice pen design, which works well with the wood pen construction methods.

The S-Pen I have also has an eraser. The eraser is a seperate circuit card. This piece fits nicely either on the opposite end of the pen or in the cap pending on the style of pen.

I don't really like the 'pen-holder' concept as I am looking for something with a more classical look. A one piece sleek design. I'll try to put something together this week with some pictures.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REHolt218:
So, here is my first attempt at making a me S-Pen. Not ideal, but I'm still working out the details. I decided to forgo the button on this one but hope to have it on the final version. This one turned into more of a Stylus-holder rather than a pen. It's a little longer than I intended but I like the size and feel of it. It's really esy to write with.

I made this one from an old Tablet PC Stylus with a broken barrel. He advantage is it has an eraser and seems to be accurate as far as position goes.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {Diemex}:
I really like the design of your pen, looks nice and classical. Not something I can manufacture with my tools.

I personally like my design, because I store my pens in my tablets and have the holders in my bag. It's a simple design which works, for me simple is "beautiful". My initial design actually covered the whole pen, but I figured that it's just a waste of material. Even worse it scratched the spen quite a bit, because I take it out of the holder a lot. For me the button is crucial, because I use it to switch to the eraser in lecturenotes. I'm interested in how you are going to incorporate it in your design.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REHolt218:
Since mine has an eraser built in I don't use the button much. The tablet pen I found was missing the button and I didn't want too make one for this Pen. Now That l I have built one l Know what changes to make for the next.

I heard something about a wpa config file, I tried renaming it and rebooting so a new one gets made. There's a Wi-Fi fixing option in the FoxHound settings, but all it does it download files that I have no clue what to do with. I'm very new to this stuff. How do I fix it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
You have to flash the safestrap modules that match your boot loader after you flash the ROM and before you boot. Wi-Fi won't work without them.

If you don't understand go back to the safestrap thread and read the entire OP.

When flashing, it said no MD5 found. What does that mean, and what should I do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Recoveries can check the md5's of whatever files your flashing. It's just a way to see if the file is still in tact and what it's supposed to be... If your on SafeStrap I think there's an option in there to turn off md5 verification under advanced maybe. I check md5's prior to flashing either on my PC or an app on the phone. I don't bother while in recovery. That's just me though
