Having a unique problem with my s24 ultra. When using the S pen on some parts on the screen on the lower half, the phone thinks the s pen is being inserted. After a few seconds it see it's actually not and go back to normal. All while making the normal audible sounds when the s pen is removed and inserted. Using the s pen on the top half of the screen is fine and doesn't exhibit the issue.

Is there any chance you are using magsafe case or some kind of magnetic case? Because magnet could interfere the Spen.

I'm not using any magsafe products or magsafe compatible cases. The only case I have is from samsung. The issue is still present even without the case on.

Update


samsung recommended a screen replacement and s pen replacement and that didn't fix the issue. Now I gotta call samsung support to see what they say. They previously denied a replacement under the normal warranty even with care + (they said the phone would have to be significantly damaged for care + to replace the phone)
