Barrel button bug remarkable-hacks + Lamy pen hack

Open typO969 opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

(Evidently, I fidget with (and turn) my writing utensils while writing, which unfortunately causes me to randomly and constantly tap or hold the barrel button on my LAMY pen accidentally.)

[During the course of these self-frustrations,] I have discovered a bug where if you push the barrel button (and hold it) just before you begin writing on the RM2—and then start writing—then while writing depress the barrel button, the LAMY pen will no longer be able to input anything on the tablet whatsoever. So I quickly grabbed the old stylus that came with the RM2, and it also had zero effect. However, the RM2 still accepts finger touches, though—thankfully—because the only "solution" I have found to fix it is by restarting the RM2.

Now that I think of it, I feel like I've been doing the same thing because I have the Lamy pen and that sometimes happens to me too. Hate having to restart but I guess it's worth the trade off.

so far unable to reproduce it, would it be possible to make a video?

I can pretty much do it on command now. It happens pretty quick, but I am pressing the button milliseconds before it touches the screen. The barrel clicks are audible. Lmk if there's anything else you need.
