Touch issues

Got my phone this Sunday. I had LG G2 previously. Performance and battery backup wise this phone is comparable to G2. What bugs me is the touch performance. I can't seem to make horizontal swipes work properly. Majority of the time, the phone detects it as vertical swipes.
I then have to scroll down again and very precisely swipe left or right. Anyone else have this issue. Note that the same apps and my swiping methods have worked flawlessly with G2 which I had for more than two years.

Yup even happenes to me... Especially clearing the notifications,...
But it doesn't happen in CM!!!

This is certainy an OS issue, try updating to global beta or, to diagnose the problem, go to developer tools-> show touch information, and if you see some weird shaping lines and not the actual line you drew on the screen, with a little overflow, you might have a hardware problem.
Hope this helps

That is absolutely a relief knowing that it doesn't happen to CM. So It's definitely just an MIUI issue. Thanks for letting us know.

The same problem here in my mi5 (rom MIUI 8 Italia based on latest china developer)

The same problem for me: Mi5 (rom MIUI 8 Italia based on latest china developer).
Horizontal swipes seems too sensitive

I installed cyanogenmod and the touch gestures works Pretty good! Maybe miui 8 calibration has to be patched

I suspect it is a hardware issue.

it isn't hardware issue: I installed Cyanogenmod rom and with it touch sensibility is ok

I also have some issues while using the official miui global rom. But with both, cm13 and cm14.1 everything works flawless! So you should think about flashing it and seeing if its a hardware issue.

Welcome to the club, I had already a indentical tread like this, same one! To me this touch it's so annoying, because I constantly have to do something on my oneplus x brothers phone and my previously Xperia z5 father's phone, and the touch of then it's so much smoother... If I had knowledge of this issue previously it certainly would have been a deal breaker.. Im waiting for my boot unlocker SMS from Xiaomi... My biggest fear it's that the camera quality be much worst on CM 13, it is??

You are right. Been to CM13, and now back to MIUI 8 because I need the camera quality of MIUI. Well, its just now a matter of preference to me.

I have some problems with touch on my Mi5.
I'am on global developer (official ota) version, and I have sharp lcd on my Mi5.
From time to time, touch is loosing smoothness and look like is ''brooke''/not perform normal.
When this happens, only resete helps.
Right now, 2 days works normal.
Before thet, 10 days was normal, and than problem was there.
Is it any solution, but I want stay with MIUI?
Thanks and best regards.

The touchscreen is not working properly with the Nillkin Tempered Glass applied.
Every time I charge my phone with my Blitzwolf QC 3.0 charger, I have issues with the touchscreen. To resolve this, I need to reboot the phone. After the reboot, the touchscreen response is back to normal.
It looks like the charging changes the way the capacitive touchscreen works. Until I reboot the phone.

It happens the same to me, after charging the touch responsiveness most of the time is very slow and buggy, a reboot is needed. I'm on LineageOS and have tempered glass on, but can't remeber which one.
I'm happy to find that somebody else has this issue since I was thinking it was just on my phone, but this seems to be some kind of different issue then.

I can confirm that Xiaomi Mi 5s 3GB 64GB Golden version with Global 8.0.3.0 MAGMIDI Stable has this issue, the touch screen is not reliable, sometimes we try to swype horizontally and it understands a vertical swype, in other hand, it also happens that you touch the screen at one point and it thinks that you were holding the screen on that pointing, popping out a holding option.
I reported on Xiaomi's official forum, it's good to report there in order to get their attention.

The second issue you're reporting happens to me only with xMIUI xposed module, I activated 'expand notification with one finger swipe downward' and I has that issue too, but I don't have it without that module. Could this be your problem?

Issues with Press Touch

So a few days ago I bought Huawei P9 plus and have been fiddling with it every since. Great phone btw. I'm running the Chinese firmware and haven't had any issues with it so far except for one major thing. Press touch is non existent.
When I press harder nothing really happens. In the phones settings there are no options for press touch whatsoever and there doesn't seem to be any solution online. Has anyone experienced this? Is this because of the firmware? I'm in Europe but I thought the biggest difference was the absence of Google now on tap.
Any ideas what might be causing this?
Or any way to check if pressure sensitivity works?
I'm open for any suggestions really.

The reason for the lack of Force/Press touch in your P9 Plus model may be quite simple (but not well-advertised unfortunately) - only the 128Gb versions have it.

Sorry, I should've been more specific - only the 128Gb Chinese models have it (looks like the op has a Chinese model).

Ah, fair's fair. I've got the 64GB version! Thanks for the feedback. Advertising led me to believe it was available for all versions.

Cod mobile input lag

Hi all
I have a question regarding COD Mobile with Mi 9T Pro.
The issue i experience is that the touch input at some locations of the screen seems to be inconsistent. For example running, looking around and shooting works perfectly fine. These "buttons" are located somwhere in the middle of the screen. However all the buttons that are located at the lower end (landscape) of the screen seem to be hit and miss. I sometimes need to press up to 3 times until the action is activated.
Now im wondering if this is phone related or a COD mobile issue. Does anyone else have this issue?
Btw i had this issue on stock and on custom roms.
Thanks for your feedback.

Yes, i have one installed. Actually I can not with complete certainty tell you if i had the same issue already before applying the protector.
But in general use i do not experience any touch issues outside of the game.
Do you think it might be worthwile to remove and retest?

i am also having the same thing, when i want to start a match with right thumb( on right corner)- it exhibits that touch issue, but while playing it doesnt.. i need to touch 3-4 times to Start
for reference i have - glazed tempered glass, Indian variant

I have the same issue. my friend has the same issue.
Multiple other k20p users have the same issue in the same place. So have others with other phones as well.
(None of us use a screen protector)
It's a COD issue. It's not optimised for some phone screens.

Thats interesting! Thanks for the information. Do you know of any phones that are optimized for COD and don't have these issues?

Hi... Try this... In settings -> Special features -> Game turbo -> settings -> additional settings -> call of duty -> touch resistant area (set it to none)...

[Fixed] Touchscreen and scrolling issue S20 FE 5G

Hello there (General Kenobi)
Just got my brand new Galaxy S20 FE 5G a few days ago but I'm experiencing the touch screen issue. My phone is up to date but I still have the problem. When I have to scroll, the screen doesn't respond at all or thinks it's a tap on the screen and it suddenly goes crazy.
It does only occur on the bottom part of the screen after I unlock my phone from a long period of non use.
I contacted Samsung and they told me to get it to a repair center. But I don't know if this will work and I'm a bit scared that getting it to the center would make things worse.
I saw that Samsung already rolled 3 updates out to fix this problem but I'm still not sure if it is a hardware or a software problem.
Did you guys face this issue? Do you think it is a hardware problem and I should repair it?
It is a good phone and after having left the Pixels because of hardware problem I'm annoyed

*WELL hello there
I get the occasional unwanted zoom in a browser or failure to respond to touch, what you're describing sounds worse than the multitouch issue others have been reporting.
I'd give serious consideration to returning that phone for a replacement or refund. the current reckoning around here seems to be that this phone got a digitizer from a cheaper price range compared to other S20s. what you describe sounds like a faulty digitizer.
is putting up with it for a couple of years not going to bug the crap out of you ?
if they offer only to repair it, accept only a new screen / digitizer / glass swap out.

About the famous multi-touch problem I have to admit that I tried to reproduce it but it only appeared when I was using 5 fingers (instead of 2 in the videos I saw)
I think you're right and I should get it repaired. And I'll see after that if the problem is still here I'll ask for a replacement. I will post an update as soon as I get it back
Thank you!

If you don't mind, could you let us know your phone's hardware revision number? An app called Phone Info *SAM* can show it. People would be interested to know if Samsung has made any hardware changes to the FE line.

Okay guys I'm sorry I couldn't reply before. I had to sent my phone for a repair THREE TIMES ! The first time they didn't do anything but damaged the back of my phone (replacing the screen and the battery) and the problem was still here. The second time they sent my phone back with the battery literally filled (the back of the phone was also damaged due to the battery that had filled).
I got my phone back on last Friday. Seems to be OK. They told me they couldn't reproduce the problem. They just repaired what they did wrong but didn't seem to do anything with the touchscreen.
The phone looks OK. After 1 day of use, the touchscreen seems to be OK but I would like to wait a bit before adding [FIXED] to the title of the topic

Does anyone know if the 2021 version of FE the 4G Snapdragon (g780g I think) has the same problems with ghost touches and jittery scrolling? Can't find info on that anywhere. Deciding between the FE and 8T, but the risk of bad touchscreen is driving me away from it although it's better phone.

I'm sorry I couldn't tell you. I bought my phone around February and it has the problem. This is the 5G variant with Snapdragon 865. I didn't even know there was a 4G variant with Snapdragon (in France, it's either 4G/Exynos or 5G/Snapdragon).
The phone is great though and now my problem seems to be fixed I'm keeping my S20FE over the Pixel 5 even though I'm a Pixel fan.

actually it looks like that's the only issue he didn't have.

That all sounds like an Exynoss version He might be wrong, maybe it is Exy?

Haha I don't feel concerned about the problems that he had because coming from a Pixel 5 some of the problems he had was worse on the P5 (reception, sound quality and the fact that the device can get warm)

I got the new 4g model with SD 865, no issues, tested with the touch screen app tester and 0 problems

I suspect that touch layer has not changed in 4G (2021) model and the issue is masked by a software add-in, because most of my one finger swipe movements are simply interrupted on this model.

No, the problem is still there even after the latest update. I have the 5G Snapdragon model with manufacture date of 10/2020. Samsung refuses to acknowledge the problem when I show them 3 point touch test in screen test app. Multi-touch or on screen hand writing will expose the problem. A few keystrokes are missing pretty much everyday.
