I had opportunity to compare two nearly identical XDA`s. "Nearly" because while typing on them I felt the difference in touchscreens. Is it possible to occur two different softnesses in touchscreens of XDA`s ? Or one of them was just more used ??
or one could have been with a screenprotector
.
both of them have transparent stickers on screens.
well different screenprotectors ?
i mean screenprotectors as something the user apply themselfs it dont come like that

Hi
There's allot of improvements, shells, skins..... that are finger-friendly...
I Really like it finger-friendly, it is more comfortable and usually looks good.
I've noticed that the TOUCH PAD of the IPhone is very sensitive for finger touch, while the Hermes needs a very hard touch (Relatively).
Is there a (hard) sensitive touchpad (Digitizer) for heremes ? (something more finger-touch friendly...)
I was looking in ebay, and noticed that there are 2 kinds of Digitizers, does someone knows the difference ?
Digitizer G1
Digitizer G2
Tnx.
I'm afraid neither of those will do what you might think they'd do. The term digitizer refers to a module that consists of a matrix to sense particular change of state in one (or more) given point(s) and translate that as coordinates data in digital form.
There are maybe 2 revisions of them in the ebay links you attached but I don't think they work differently, perhaps one has better sensitivity or responsiveness.
Digitizers activated by pressure works differently than ones activated by mere touch (capacitance). The first is noticable by the requirement of stylus or something to "press" a point to "short circuit" a tiny area in 2 thin layers that are stacked together, they know where the "short circuit" is and report that as the touch point. The latter is activated by the fact that the touch actually alters the "electrical charge" of that particular area.
Common portable devices nowadays still use the press-type, usually it is completely separated from and installed on top of the LCD (if you look closely to your screen when it's turned off you'll notice tiny dots which is the matrix), that's why sometimes they slide around and you have to recalibrate your touch screen. I hope this makes sense.
KaiserVideoDriver has it correct. That's why the iPhone has such a sensative touch screen. Also, I believe that the resistance based touch screens that our phones use are not capable of registering mulitple touch pionts, which is why Apple had to go the opposite route...in order to facilitate the multi touch interface.
From time to time I try and use my Hermes without the stylus, but I constantly find myself either tiring of the constant finger prints and smudges, or I get aggrevated over the touch screen seeming to have a fit from time to time and register touches wrong. It seems to be calibrated for the stylus (i.e. a small, firm touch point); the larger, spread out touch point of a meaty fingertip seems to drive the screen crazy and cause it to register the touch to either of the upper corners. Infuriating when it closes a program or tries to cancel an SMS on you.
I am an artist, who loved sketching on his ipad, but had to sell that one cuz of its restrictions being apple ..
Now I have an Galaxy tab 10.1 gt 7500 ..
But I seem to get those ugly wavy lines when ever I try to draw diagonal lines
The slower I draw the more wavy they become.
But if I draw it in a quick gesture, it does not show any problems
Have put up a screen grab of me drawing straight lines in Sketchbook Pro
( this problem happens even in other Drawing Apps )
Please do help
Cheers
I checked on mine (in sketchbook) and it works fine. I'd guess there's something wrong with the touchscreen. If it's new, I'd go exchange it, or get warranty service.
I, too have used this app and don't notice wavy lines like that, unless I want wavy ones. I usually use a tablet stylus or brush instead of my finger.
same problems
got a new replacement , yet the problem persists. Drawing with a capacitive stylus too does not give accurate results
Also when taking notes, a lot of words and letters get skipped and the letters dont come out fully
Any of you guys actually use this for note taking ?
Is there any solution ,workaround for this digitiser inaccuracy ?

There's a thread in the apps and theming section that has a list of compatible widgets and apps that work on our tabs. Look for SuperNote. It's perfect for taking notes. For your drawing problems, maybe it's the type of stylus you are using. I have one from Samsung with a rubber tip that works great. I also use a nomad brush for more realistic brush strokes and feel that works great.

The super note app is great !
Its got a faster response time ,
Though is it possible for you to just post a screenshot of you drawing diagonals or circles slowly using a stylus , just want too see if the batch of tablets in the store are having problems
Ok, I've got exactly the same problem!
I guess most ppl won't notice this until they try to actually draw something.
Any luck finding solution?

Ok, I tested the stylus on friend's htc desire - same thing. Using finger does not produce waves, at least not that big.
Looks like the problem is related to the contact spot size, small spot - problem.
I guess the problem is the interpolation between the sensors.
I dont know if anything can be done here... But if someone has an idea, please share it!

Arizal
Its almost a year now, and even though there arent any big scratches , but there are many tiny scratches which results in dragging effect while using the touch screen, It isnt smooth . Planning to change the screen protection , also i want something which isnt finger print magnet. Any advice ?
I search i too
I buy one from amazon.
It was from DIPOS / Crystal Clear.
It is good, but not so good as the original.
The fits is not exactly.
legreco
Thanks .. Any other recommendations ?
I took the top protection off as soon as it came out of the box.
Several weeks later I noticed there was another (Much harder to remove) screen protector. I took this off as it was getting dirty and sctratched. I have never replaced it with anything and I have got no more scratches and never had any issues with the touch screen. i keep my phone in my pocker along with loose change and keys....
I have had my phone for about a year, and had the protector off for about 11 months..it was the best move i made
I found this ----> http://stores.ebay.com/gadgetfix/Sony-Ericsson-/_i.html?_fsub=1408041015 . Hope it suits you.I am searching for an original part (digitaizer and a new panel (WHOLE PANEL!!) ) Tell how it works (IF YOU BUY ofcourse : ) ) Regards!
So I bought the C-Pen but for me it's horrible. The lines aren't nearly as accurate when done with my finger and sometimes it doesn't register at all. Anyone else having this?

Returned mine the same day I received it. A cheap pen from ebay, worked much better and without missed clicks. Wasn't expecting this really. In addition, the c-pen didn't work on the capasitive buttons. The cheap one did.

Was it like really inaccurate for you too? If I drew a pretty straight the line, it would almost always come out all wobbly. Then when I drew with my finger the line would be all smooth. And on some points on the screen I couldn't even draw at all sometimes.
I am without a doubt going to send it back. Really ****ty product
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
The problem is that capacitive screens only have spots they react on, not every single location. So the pen has to have a large enough tip to cover at least one such spot under all conditions; something which is always given when using your finger.
(In fact your finger usually covers multiple spots)
These spots don't really allow for smooth transition in e.g. diagonals.
The cheap pens off eBay have a larger tip which covers multiple spots (like your finger) and work thus better.
On older screens or elder tablets (e.g. the Wetab) they are still unusable and will result in the same issues you're having with the c-Pen since those screens have even larger gaps between the spots.

Yeah, that makes sense. Actually I could draw a straight line with it just fine but at the upper part of the screen it became unresponsive and really annoying to use.
Can't comprehend how such a product could be advertised as "exclusively optimised for S3".
Oh no.. I placed order few days ago!
I've been researching this C-Pen to decide if I wanted one. What I read on Amazon.com is that it seems to work ONLY on an S lll. Does not work on other tablets or phones. Now, I wanted to be able to use a pen on a tablet I have so I figured this was a negative for this particular pen.
If it doesn't even work well on the S lll what is the problem? (rhetorical question). My main interest in using a pen was not as a substitute for my finger but to actually use the S Memo for sketches.
it seems to me this technology is not yet sophisticated enough for prime time.

Really?
Then how does cheap pen from ebay which has almost same surface are on the tip works smooth.

Hi all,
Anyone replaced a screen on a xs yet (nephew broke mine)?
I can get a screen of eBay for about 160 but not sure if it's beyond the ability of my sausage fingers, is it hard to do? Any idea on what a repair shop would charge? I'm in aus
Or I wonder if I should just put that cash toward a gx or that water proof one..
Cheers
Ben
trust me in terms of quality the ebay ones are rubbish. The colours arent as vibrant and you can see lines when looking from side. I had experienced this with my arc before. Colours looked so dull, I regreted changing my cracked screen.

Thanks for the reply,
Never crossed my mind that the wernt the real thing, I might just put up with it till I want a new phone as its only 2 lines of crack...
plus if you do replace lcd then youll also need to buy new adhesive to stick it into place and that can get really messy.
