So my only complaint so far is the screen sensativity.
I know this doesnt use a capacitive screen, so it needs physical pressure, but it seems to me the glass on the top of the screen makes it need alot more pressure than i'm used to. The middle of the screen seems to be more sensative, and the outside less sensative.
You can test this by putting your finger down on HOME in touchflo, then scrolling to programs and back again. If you pres hard, it will go back and forth. If you use less pressure at home and programs it will load the programs or home screen, as if you released your finger.
So i know there's two reg keys for this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel
By doing a screen slignment and pressing hard with the stylus i get a lower value here, and by pressing lightly i get a higher value here.
So high value = detects lighter press, low value - needs harder press
HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings\fingurepressure
This i'm confused about. I tried setting it to 0, 2, 14, 200, 255, 600, and there's not noticable difference as far as i can see.
Is there some sort of program that can read the the pressure from the screen and display it? This would help make the tests alot more scientific!
Someone posted this tip in the tips and tweaks thread above...maybe useful to you??
One tip for changing the sensitivity if you don't want to mess around in the registry:
- run the Align Screen setting (under Settings/System/ Screen)
- when you press on the 'targets' with the stylus, use VERY light pressure...just enough that the tap is accepted
- I usually tap a few times on each target, starting too lightly, and then gradually increasing the pressure until the tap is taken
- do this for each of the 5 targets
I found this seems to make the Diamond calibrate a higher sensitivity for its touch-screen, so finger touches can be much lighter.
This is probably a safer way to change the sensitivity, as you don't risk putting an invalid number into the registry.
Thanks, i already tried that.
Can someone tell me their value for this key?

I've just about had enough of this touchflo.. pretty but soooo anoying to use
Today on about 3 ocasions i was navigating through it and got a call.. the lights on the touch wheel were flashing and it was playing the ringtone, but the whole phone was frozen for about 4 seconds. Eventually the call popped up and i was able to answer!
I think i'm going to diable it and do my best to make the rest pretty.
You just have to be patient...the roms are not mature yet...
In 3 months you'll see that Diamond will be the best phone out there
I also am trying to find out the best way to configure the finger sensitivity.

yeah but 3 months is a long time... i have to do something to stop myself smashing the phone on the floor on frustration!
for now i'm going to disable touch flow, and i'll come back to it when a new rom comes out.
Have you tried the new rom 1.37.XXX ?
Bye
I have a UK diamond.. so it came with 1.37.405.1
I've just done the "light tap" trick, and now it's perfect...
Could it be that you have a defective device?
Bye
Its better with that 'trick' but still anoying. I have a feeling i'm just too used to a capacitive screen.
The wierd thing is with the light tap the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel ends up back to 30 to 50 decimal.
i only bought it today yet im seriously thinking of taking it back. The iPhone is just the better product, and always will be, unless Microsoft and the software developers get as passionate as those at apple.
Its Laggy
Its un-intuative
The touch screen isnt as sensitive as it should be. (why are they still using resistive touchscreens)
And the opera browser isnt all that either, it doesnt redraw quick enough for the full page display thing to really be all that impressive on zoom in/out and leaves chessboard squared at it struggles and chuggs to redraw.. . .not great, not when the comptetition is as good as it is. . . . .im thinking 3G Iphone, ****ty camera or not.
Loose the 6.1 and stop trying to polish that turd with TouchFlo's. Yeah good effort, but it just aint good enough
J
WM is just a huge resource hog. The touchflo is slow because its a plugin for the today screen, which then calls on windows API's to draw onto the screen.
Its such a long long way round to get to the hardware that its just slow no matter how well u code.
I just hope someone ports android to the diamond, because the hardware is amazing, the OS is a pile of ****!
BTW they use resistive touchscreens to have increased touch resolution. Also a stylus wouldnt work with a capacitive screen.
I prefer to work with resistive LCD than capacitive...
The capacitive have better sensibility, but are less precise...
Although the Diamond LCD is not as sensitive as a capacitive, it's sensitive enough to work well with the fingers...
It's just a matter of tweaking.
HastaSSSS
Resistive screens use a grid of conductive material, sandwitched between the glass and a conductive layer. They alternatly pass an electrical current on each line of the grid along the x and y axis. When you press the screen you touch this grid onto the conductive layer and the current passes through it, which is detected. You can make resistive screen that have a very high resolution of detection, and the resolution is always what you design it to be.
Resistive screens are pressure sensative, and by design can't handle multi-touch.
Capacitive screens use glass coated with a conductive coating. The edges of the screen are connected to conducters. Each conducter has a different frequency oscilator connected.
The capacitance of a human finger changes the impedance of the screen, and so changes the frequency of the oscillator circuit. This gets converted to distance from each oscillator and so a co-ordinate.
The resolution is limited by how acuratly you can detect changes.
Typically in electronics very small changes are hard to measure because they are indistiguishable from noise.
Capacitive screens can handle multi-touch, but the resolution of each touch is decreased in that case.
Capacitive screen resolution is not absolute and can change with increased noise in the system, or by multiple capapcitive effects on the screen - like multiple touches.
Screen looks great. But I'm having two issues.
First, the screen feels kinda rough dragging my finger across. By comparison my Galaxy S phone and iPad are very smooth and glide with no resistance.
Is this normal, can it be improved?
Second, the screen seems unresponsive at times. I'll have to tap more than one to get it to recognize an action. Maybe it's just being slow.
Also the calibration seems to be a bit off. I often seem to be clicking items below what I tapped on. Not sure it's completely user error since I don't seem to be having this much trouble with my 4 inch Android phone.
PS. The phone is rooted with AutoNooter and using LauncherPro and Dolphin browser.

My screen is very smooth, and a little bit tacky... I'd prefer a less tacky, smoother feel, but it's okay.
Unresponsive I've not noticed really, but the calibration on the edges and/or corners is funky.. Like hitting the Search button in the market is hit and miss, otherwise other places I personally haven't seen any issues.
There's a thread on here / directions on nookdevs for how to recalibrate the screen. A lot of people have been reporting issues with the calibration on the edge of the screen. It doesn't bother me too much, so I haven't tried, but results are apparently quite good.
http://www.nookdevs.com/Recalibrate_the_NookColor_touch_screen
I've recalibrated the screen a few times. Even did the suggestion with placing the Nook face down for extreme sensitivity.
I still seem to be having the same problem where the touch is very unresponsive. It's most noticable browsing the web, I'll have to tap links multiple times before the browser does anything.
I'm wondering if I have a bad Nook or is this just how it is?
It could be the default browser. I had problems with unresponsive tapping as well but after switching to Dolphin Browser HD I havent really noticed them at all. However, it does seems like only certain apps or portions of them have problems with touch response...I can think of 2 off the top of my head..
1) The search icon in the Android Market. I have to really tap it hard or multiple times for it to open the search ability. Everything else in the market is a light, smooth, responsive tap, except the search ability.
2) ADW's settings menu, specifically the back button. Have to really hit it hard to work yet everything else works perfectly fine.
Maybe it's just me but I swear its only certain things which respond poorly to taps.
In regards to the screen being tacky, goto B&N and buy the Anti-Glare protective screen film. Make sure its the anti-glare one and not the regular screen protector. Not only will your fingers slide perfectly, but it also avoids all the annoying fingerprints the default glass seems to collect. Worth every penny. (You get 2 of them for 15 bucks)
I find that I have better luck ith a light touch & avoid a "tap". It took a bit of practice to know what part of my finger was actually making contact with the screen first & the reason for the perception that the screen was out of calibration.
I do have a problem with the center right area of the screen when playing crossword. Sometimes it is very hard to click on the rufgt side boxes. Interestingly, the same area of the screen is responsive in other apps.
Cheers,

I purchased the matte screen protector from them and it alleviated the tacky feel of the screen. Also resist oils and smudges so its a must have in my opinion.

I have the same problem at the very top edges of the screen. Pressing search in marketplace or a new tab in dolphin is really annoying. Requires many taps to work. Rest of screen seems to work fine. I did notice that the 2.2 Froyo was way worse for screen sensitivity. Maybe they can fix somehow with a firmware patch or something.
I have the same problem. Will try recalibrating later.

I don't think the market search button issue is a screen calibration issue. I initially thought there was an issue with the sensitivity/calibration in the top corner of the screen, but I have the same problem with market search when I am in portrait or landscape. Touching items in the same area of the screen in other apps is fine.
My screen is definitely more responsive after doing the commands.
I made sure to clean it completely with a microfiber cloth before running the commands.
As for the market search issue, it seems to have improved the sensitivity. In fact, to me it now feels as if I am getting the button push through, but it just takes time for the app to register it and take action (lag) and thus we think the button push did not go through and push it again...

A lot of the discussion on this thread is for locale based calibration, but I had the issue where if you hold still on a drag and drop, before dropping the thing you are holding is jittery, as thugh your finger was being jittery. This calibration fixed that problem.
Under the thought that this might happen again, would be nice if there was a way to run the command locally on the system without having to connect to adb to recalibrate.
Any ideas on how that could be done? I was thinking maybe scripted terminal commands?
I am not sure whether it is my mind playing trick with me or not, but I feel like my phone is less sensitive after I did the hard reset (power+volume down). Sometimes I need to press 2-3 times because the first light tap was not detected.
So is there anyway to increase the sensitivity?
I have the same problem, but no idea that is the hardware or only software problem.....
Fresh owner of this Optimus 2X in France, in our community, frandroid.com, we encounter the same problem , I think this is a software issue.
Did someone already contact LG??
Maybe they should include this into the bug list thread.
May I know were you guys having this problem since it is out of the box? or after reset?
I have the same problem started from day 1 till now
I have the same issue and already thought I'd be the only one having this problem.
I would not say it's a problem with sensitivity, but it feels like the touchscreen goes into some kind of sleepmode where then you need to press a second time, to wake it up.
Continuous touching is no problem. (like when typing rapidly on the keyboard)
This video is not from me, but it shows the problem.
Have a look at 13:28 and 13:37. The reviewer tries to hit the "Ackermann" entry, but the touchscreen does not recognize the touch. At 13:37 the guy has to press another time to get the entry selected.

Yes! The touchscreen is definitely less sensitive than my old HTC Hero, and gets quite frustrating sometimes when a scroll misses the first part of the movement or a click is missed.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
just in case, are you guys using 20110218 baseband too?
The same problem here. If I unlock the screen and then tap on any on screen apps, I need to touch again for it to open. Only the first time though, after that it function ok. I think this is a bug and needs to be fixed... I have my pc for double-click.
Yep, count me in. Same problem here. Sometimes screen taps aren't registered. Will do some research later on, but I think it's a software problem. (maybe you have to tap 2x as fast )
Hi,
same problem here!
Potentially a driver issue. A Nexus S user had a similar issue in this thread: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18431-tuning-driver-to-deal-with-unresponsive-touchscreen/
He managed to tweak the driver and it works fine now. Need to know C++ (I think?) to understand though.

I see, then probably they will fix it on the next update/gingerbread?
Same issue here.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the problem seems to be that the screen has zero tolerance when it comes to tapping and swiping together. If you tap and slide your finger a bit directly after the tap, the tap is ignored. In other words your tap has to be a steady tap when you click on a button or an app. Right on the spot and with no swiping or sliding afterwards. I can't reproduce this on any of my other devices.
Ergo, it seems that the natural tapping I'm used to isn't working on the x2. It seems like I have to adjust my tap. I think that this could in principle be solved with a setting somewhere, because clearly the x2 is capable of registering this in for example a web page.
The great thing of this is that you can safely tap and swipe in the app drawer to scroll up and down or left and right. The downside is that a tap with a little swipe isn't registered at all. I would say that LG has choosen here for a wrong setting.
My personal experience about screen sensivity.. can you confirm if it's the same for your device?
I noticed a strange touch response.. and after some tests, I can say that the touch screen and icons are influenced by the surface where the phone was put!
with the phone in my hands, it's all ok (only sometimes - rare - I need to tap more than once).
If I put the phone over a glass surface (like a glass table) without touching it with both hands, the touch and the icons not respond!! NEVER!
If I put the phone on my scanner the touch screen works ok, but the icons not (or only few and rare taps was detected).!
If I put the phone over my big Onkyo amplifier.. It works like in my hands.. or better!! even without touching with hands.. only with a finger!
Put it back on my glass table.. and all stop working again. If I put a aluminium foil under the phone (between phone and table).. the touch and the icons works again !!
If I put it on the bed.. it don't work.
LG support say that they have tested the phone about this issue after my report.. but no strange response was detected by them. I don't know if they really tested it..
Try it and let me know what you think about!
tested on glass surface, I can press and swipe through pages with a finger without problem.
it is true that my device is not so responsive, but aint reaching that level yet
i read about a similar behaviour on other devices because some devices need a proper grounding for the capacitive screen to work correctly. You can find this problem via google.
Some devices have problem in a car-mounting, for example.
But i think thats not the problem the thread-opener talked about?
Guys I'm looking to get this phone and after reading Engadgets review of the X2 where they mention that the screen is not as sensitive to the touch as other phones I got a bit worried and started googling which lead me here!
Is this true? The screen isn't very sensitive and you have to apply more pressure than other capacitive phones?
I know that the OP is talking about a different issue but I reckon LG will get that sorted out via software update, or at least hope so!
Please do post your experience about the screen sensitivity of the X2 as this is putting me off. I currently have the Motorola Milestone 2 which is very sensitive to the touch even with a screen protector on it.
Cheers
Is anyone experiencing touches being registered slightly off target from where you are actually touching the screen? When I enable Settings > Developer Options > "Show touches" and "Pointer location", I see that touches register significantly lower and to the right of where the tip of my finger touches the screen. In the screenshot, you can see that the crosshair and circle are not aligning; the white circle appears to be what is actually registered when using the phone.
This seems like a software/kernel issue. I'm surprised no one else has mentioned this yet..it's very annoying!

I wonder if this is related to the problems people are experiencing using the home key and back key. If touches aren't registering in the right place, surely this could exacerbate an already existing fault with sensitivity of these 'keys'
Currently interchangeably using HTC One, BBZ10 and Note 2
Have you tried using the calibration tool under Settings -> Language & Keyboard -> HTC Sense Input -> Advanced -> Calibration tool? Not sure if this would make a difference in your case.
Apparently touching the screen very lightly while using the calibration tool helps capacitive button sensitivity for some people, as well.

That's not changing anything for me. Are you able to confirm whether or not touches are being registered off-target?
i have the same issue
anyone has an ideo to solve this problem?
I almost think that's how it's supposed to be. It's not putting up an X for you to try and touch, it just showing you where you are touching. Now if it was putting up a target for you to try for and it was off that would be different.

It makes sense if they assume that most people are using it one handed with the right hand. You usually would hit the point you are trying to hit a bit low and to the right. But in other cases, you might not.
It's strange. Where the lines intersect is exactly where I touch, so it knows where I am touching. But the circle is always lower right.
Anyone that has received the 1.29 update try this out? Is it fixed? Ive tested this out on other devices and the circle is always where the lines intersect, not like the One.
Happening on mine, too, I just tested it.
It would be one thing if the system weren't reading the coordinates correctly, but it appears that it is.. it's just registering the action off target. That strikes me more as a software/calibration issue. This explains why I've had a hard time hitting very small links on webpages in Firefox.. I'm touching dead on the link, but it's not registering it there.

I don't get this. We've all been using smart phones long enough to know where we're touching the screen and how to do it properly. They shouldn't be trying to compensate for anything, and I hope there's a function somewhere that allows us to recalibrate or turn whatever this is off, so that it simply registers the actions at the exact point of contact.
Do you have the 1.29 update, or an older version?
1.26.502.10. Stock AT&T. Unlocked & rooted, but not ROMd.
mine register where I touch them( 1.29.401.12), yet I feel I am missing more links in the browser than before (but that might be a browser problem, before I used opera mobile)
Hey guys,
I turned on the two developer options and then used a drawing app to confirm where the touches were being registered. It turns out my touches were registering at the intersection of the two lines (which is where I'm actually touching) instead of the circle. Looks like there's really nothing wrong here, other than the way they are displaying that little circle thingy.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I have tested the phone lot , but I haven't noticed this issue. I am even surprised of the touchscreen. I have never seen such a perfectly visible display. I pressed gently and it reacts as normal.
To people with this problem. Did your last phone is Samsung Galaxy? Or have you ever been a longer Samsung user?
I ask cause I have this problem ONLY on Galaxy phones. When I use HTC , even Wildfire It have superior reactions of the touchscreen.
Yeah, even though it seems off, my touches are registering right at the intersection.
Anyone else having problems with the sensitivity on fast scrolling? Seems to not be as smooth or compared to the iPhone 6 and HTC One M8 I have been playing with...It's almost too sensitive or something, I can't quite put my finger on it.

There is an earlier topic about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/help/swipe-issues-t2888154
The phone has an extra-sensitive touch screen because it has a "glove mode", and I'm thinking the effect of the technology for that glove mode isn't completely suppressed when the glove mode is disabled, so the touch screen would still be slightly more sensitive than those of other phones, even when glove mode is disabled.
If glove mode is enabled, the touch screen is so incredibly sensitive that without gloves, it will register a touch when you hover your finger about a millimetre above the touch screen.
I found that for me it helps to use "lighter" and shorter swipes. Also after a swipe lifting my finger a bit higher off the screen than I was used to.
Some people might always have been doing shorter and lighter swipes, hence not everyone is experiencing the problem. It's also been said on the Xperia support forum that not all units use the same glass for the front; some use "gorilla glass", others use "dragontrail" glass. That could also be influencing the touch screen sensitivity/behaviour.
I've adjusted my swiping habits relatively quickly and now I get the bounce back effect only once in a while.
I do hope that Sony comes with a firmware fix to compensate for the over-sensitivity though.

hi, is it normal? happen to my unit also.. quite annoying i can tell.. different with my TX..
Go into developer options and enable "Show touches", perhaps touch the screen a few times then turn off show touches.
Sorts it out for me! I was having a nightmare swiping down to select words in Fleksy.
This workaround will do for me until Sony fix it properly!

I really wish there was a way to turn down the sensitivity. During typing, I frequently have screen presses register as very short swipes, which is incredibly irritating, as I then have to backspace and delete two words.

Touch screens usually respond to metal. The screen of my Z2 tablet does.
My screen is so sensitive I can operate it using my leg... through the pocket. I saw in Z1 and Z2 threads that there is a config file that can be adjusted, however I'd have to root in order to do that, and I don't want to risk losing my warranty (esp. not when reading about glass breaking by itself).
It's not a massive problem -- all it takes is switching off "double tap to wake" and camera launch button. But those are features that are useful. On the other hand, having my phone suddenly switch Torch on, call a random person in my phonebook or reorder icons on the launcher desktop isn't all that exciting either -- not a fan of surprises.
Has anyone else found the Z3 Compact screen too sensitive? (Glove mode is off, obviously.)

On my previous phone (xperia acro s) it often happened that my leg messed with the phone when the screen went on for the alarm going off in my pocket. It was really annoying. I was always afraid that some important settings changed without knowing it.
My screen is so sensitive that I the last couple of weeks only have managed to send a few sms without having to delete several words that are written wrong...!
The speeddialer is also terrible and often leads to wrong contacts...
This phone is by far the worst phone I have ever had regarding these issues!
Is this a sign of a faulty phone or can you relate to these problems as well?
Is there a solution???
My speed dial wasn't working out of the box. Had to make a factory reset, that fixed it. Sensitivity isn't interfering with my writing though. My previous phone was a bit bigger so I had to get used to writing on a smaller keyboard. But why would touchscreen sensitivity be an issue when writing anyway? Are you using a swipe keyboard?
No I'm just using it out of the box settings...? I can see swipe is enabeled but I text normal... I have had to disable autocorrecting words when I write... It is really strange... I have had many different smartphones over the last 15 years and this is by far the most responsive ever tending to be useless because of the many mistakes I make during calls and sms...
I never had any issues what so ever with my M7...?
I have just disabled "motioninput" (roughly translated from danish...) under Xperia-texting and this seems to have helped alot!!!
I'm on the same boat - it's too sensitive compared to my m8. Hoping for update to fix it
You really should try to do what I did and disable motioninput! It really helps ??
I'm on the same boat - it's too sensitive compared to my nexus 4. Hoping for update to fix it
I go into running apps and force stop com.sonymobile.touchscreen.touchfilter.tfpss and it seems to be a little better, still sensitive but at least no bouceback. I should try pm blocking it.

I've tried this as well, but unfortunately no change, I still get bounce-backs when I don't use particularly light and short swipes.
