Okay so,
there is a line in the middle my screen that the s pen will not react to ( Draw, write, erase, etc...) when im in the art canvas mode you can use our fingers and when using my finger i can write on the area im describing. im guessing this might be something faulty with the pen itself? ( i dont not have magnets in my case, i know this can cause probelms) when i first got the phone everything worked fine....then it started acting up. im going to have to exchange it anyways so it dosent burst into flames lol. but i just wanted to see if anyone else is having this issue in case i run into again with my new note 7
thanks!!!

I didn't recall having that particular issue before I turned in my defective one- I just had issues with drawing when approaching the edges

Are you using a case that has a kickstand? Most kickstand cases use a magnet to hold the kickstand in place when not in use, and that interferes with the S-Pen as it is magnetic.

Well, I can say that as of the last time I USED my phone (being one of those silly people who actually LISTENED to the recall notice), there was no problem.
