how often do you pull the stylus out? I almost forgot that it had one.... :(

I am constantly using mine. So useful for quick notes, especially when I am on a call and I need to write something down, speaker phone, s note domination!
 
I have only had my note 2 for 3 days and I have used it everyday while browsing sketching and playing razzle :)

How do you sign a pdf document with the pen?
Thanks.
I've only had the phone for a few days, but I did use the stylus today to sign a pdf document, which is something I will be using it a lot for in the future. Was the primary selling point for me over the GS3. I'm just still trying to figure out how everything works! :)
 
I use mine three or four times a week to sketch things and make notes. It's handy that I can sketch a drawing of my ideas for an engineer or technician then text it to them for them to keep. Blows their minds.

I use it for screenshots and when taking notes while talking on the phone. I also use it fir hover scrolling on applications that support it.
 
I pull out the stylus everytime I turn on the screen and it unlocks for me already, rather than pressing the power button then press the slider to unlock the screen. Much faster that way and less wear and tear for the power button/switch. I'm on Bean's ROM V10, btw, I dunno if it works on stock rom. :D

Stock rom does the same
 
Yeah this is the first Android phone I have bought and have not rooted. I have yet to find anything appealing in the custom rom area besides on screen buttons like on nexus devices.
 
SignDoc Mobile is a great app for signing documents. It is highly touted by Samsung.

Stock ROM and Touchwiz never appeals to me so I rooted, unlocked, took out the bloatware, did the SD card swap, and activated the mobile hotspot, etc. (Among other things) :D
 
I use it to draw things out for patients sometimes.. Also just to draw.my gf likes that function lol.

I don't have write notes often..sometimes i just use it when browsing internet or to copy text..Also use it on sites that have drop down menus.. at least once a day i use it
 
My use of the pen has been fading but I know why and there's a fix. On any secreen I should be able to press a button on the pen that lets me write a note on top of that screen, and when I'm done I push the button again and the note and a current screen shot are saved and then the note is time stamped and then there is digitizing of the hand written text so it is searchable. When I display that note later it can be with or without the screen shot and the screen shot with or without the note. When I want to jot something down I'm loath to navigate away from the current screen. Why require that? Just allow the writing on any current screen. Saving a screen shot might help remember the context of the note if it's not complete.

I love handwriting again but giving up searchable text is asking too much.
 
The stylus is most useful when its 20 degrees out with wind chill of 9 and you have big fluffy gloves on and don't want to freeze your little fingers off.

Aaaah, I remember that weather all too well! It was many years ago in Chicago! No gloves now (Arizona) but use the S pen every day! You have a perfect use for the S pen! Stay warm!
