[Q] Increasing P500 Screen Sensitivity - Optimus One, P500, V General

Was trying to increase the screen sensitivity and came across this
http://android.modaco.com/content/a...y-only-tested-on-liquide-1-100-05-based-roms/
Didn't work on P500. Anyone knows how to customise the script for our Optimus One P500?

....and what it brings?

It says stderr: cannot create /
Directory non existent

I mean what brings this configuration in using of phone
Anyway, that script can not work because of script that doesn't exist. I tried search for sensitivity and it seems, that this can not be done bye some script change. Maybe with combination with some kernel...

it's supposed to make the touch screen more responsive. Am I the only one having an insensitive touch screen? I need to put my whole finger onto the screen as compared to using only the fingertips for other capacitive screens.

My screen is working great. Works at the slightest touch. I still have the original screen protector on.

I have same experience. My touchscreen is also very sensitive...

That's sad for me. I was on firmware v10a original out of the box and upgraded to v10e in hopes that things will improve.
What firmware are you 2 on?

I'm using Noejn's void. which is build on V10a, but compiled from sources, with some stuffs and custom kernel.

mine's also not very responsive... had a HTC Wildfire before which's screen was much more responsive! don't have to put my hole finger on the screen for it to react but i have to make a litte pressure with my fingertip..

My optimus's screen was awesome for me. I found it better than that of my iPod touch's, which I feel is extra sensitive.. By the way, I said "was" because I messed up my optimus with clockwork mod and now am waiting to get a new one from the service center. I never had any problems with the screen!

Looks like I got a lemon but I can't prove it

I'm really, really sorry for bumping this old topic but I'm experiencing the same problems as the thread starter, did anyone figured out how to change the screen sensitivity on the Optimus One P500?
Thanks in advance.

Auto brightness on any custom ROM.

I have noticed that on the 5 or 6 custom roms I have flash that the auto brightness works great. Although I believe it to be a bit too sensitive causing what I would describe as ever changing brightness almost like a flicker. Has anyone else had this problem or notice it? And is there a fix?

i'm on a stock rom and i have noticed the auto brightness does seem to work fairly quickly .. but i haven't noticed anything similar to a flicker.
i've noticed when i sometimes put a finger over the light sensor on accident it will adjust and then i remove my finger and it readjusts .. i haven't ever seen it adjust too quickly to cause something like a flicker.
could you give more details on when/how you've seen it be "too sensitive" or have a "flicker"? i would like to see if i can replicate on a stock rom!
I believe its the problem you are talking about. I just did some test and like you said if I put my finger over the sensor it does it super fast as well as anytime I create a shadow while using the phone and it hits the sensor. I would personally like to see if we could somehow change the rate that the sensor registers without adversely affecting anything else

Would the sensors.shooter.so in /system/libs/hw be the place to start trying something?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Do the ROMS you use have the CRT shutdown and open animation? If so this MOD does cause some flicker with the autobrightness enabled. Viper ROM thread has a flashable fix but it also removes the CRT animation. Not sure if that will be compatible with your ROM though as it replaces the services.jar.

from my understanding any of the .so files in /system/libs/hw are compiled file and might be a bit difficult to sort thru in a decompiler but if you have the time and patience, it is worth a try!
short answer: i would look thru the drivers for the sensor in the kernel code.
longer answer: i remember having an issue on the samsung moment with the light sensor not responding quick enough. from that previous discussion which is now over a year or so old, i remember leaning towards the kernel source code as potentially having some type of timing adjustment for the drivers which control that sensor.
down side is no updated kernel source has been released for 2.3.4 yet, but at least 2.3.3 is available and i'm sure very few changes were made to this area of the kernel so it should be the same when 2.3.4 is released.
ideal answer: the kernel is compiled with sysfs support so the light sensor sensitivity can be adjusted live in userspace! this is of course a dream more than a reality but figured i'd throw it out there as an ideal end goal.
hope that helps! keep us updated if you have a chance to dig deeper!
This weekend I'm going to dig deeper into the so file. As well as trying to switch back to 2.3.3 and mess with the kernel a little that way if I find anything when the kernel source is released for 2.3.4 I could possibly have a fix. I'm not sure if anyone else would like the sensor timing to be lowered just a little like I would. But I will definitely keep everyone informed with my findings

i posted the following suggestion and method of research in another thread regarding camera compression and searching thru the kernel source for the settings.
regarding the light sensor timing, i think a similar approach might be helpful. the best source for updated and properly compiling kernel source, in my opinion, https://github.com/toastcfh/htc-8660-kernel . i think most custom kernels on here are forked from his and then modified.
starting with the shooter_defconfig file, i'd search for references to sensors/light sensors and see which one is being included in our specific device. from there, i would grep the kernel source to see where the ifdef calls are at for the driver pieces and work out from there.
hope that makes sense and helps in the research! look forward to seeing anything you're able to put together!
Thanks and yes that did make sense. Sorry about the delay hurricane Irene really hit me hard I finally got power back Wednesday and this has been the last thing on my list. I have found what I think to be a fix, however I'm testing right now to make sure I didn't Bork anything else. Should be out to public mid next week.

You can decompile the framework-res.apk and edit the arrays in res/values/array.xml.
Just have a look at my sig for the guide, how to do it.
Also interesting post from leedroid:

If you haven't yet tried kushdeck you should, so far it's the only one with crt that had smooth auto light, but you can also turn off the screen transitions in settings and keep crt, you can also use spare parts to have faster animations and again not lose crt.

Bugs with Gingerbread

I was wondering if anyone else experience bugs after updating besides the known bugs that Verizon and HTC acknowledged. My unlock screen has been unresponsive and so has the bottoms on the bottom. Sometimes when i'm using the phone and just decides to go crazy, I have a screen protector so can the unresponsiveness be due to that? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
I got the GB issues so the only thing I could think of was to Root and flash with a ROM that ran GB. I don't know how much more we can do until they release something stable and not full of bugs
The screen protector can affect the on screen buttons my wife had to remove hers due to this, but having your phone act crazy could be something else.

Which screen protector are you using? Have any issues with unresponsive screen before the update?
Not sure if this is a known bug yet but after gingerbread update the clock app doesn't show up in app list.only way to launch is is by the widget
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I'm on the GB update and haven't noticed any responsiveness issues. I'm also running a naked TB w/o a screen protector. It's hard to say if that's it -- I'd hate for you to rip it off for it to make no difference. Do you have any other apps running that might affect it?
I have to say the GB update seems really stable for me, aside from the known logging bug that is...

[Q] Touch Screen issues

Hey All!
My amaze is awesome except that I can't play games well on it! When trying to play games like Gta 3 or Minecraft that have virtual buttons my touch screen does funky stuff. When holding down a button to move forward my character will start to move and then stop like the touch screen has stopped registering my finger that is still holding down the button.
My question to you all is do you have issues where your screen is flakey or do I maybe just have a bad unit? I have even noticed in web browsing that the page stutters sometimes even when I'm scrolling slowly on a fully loaded page.
Same here on gta and other games... You got a screen protector?

Nope, I don't. I'm thinking its the pin in the back like a couple other people have said. I might just take it back and get a new one though. Lol. Its bad though... I can't even play any games on it that have virtual buttons! That and it won't detect more than 3 fingers on the multitouch test app I got.
Is this actually a problem on the Amaze or just a faulty device of op?
I believe it's a faulty device. Mine works with 4 touch points without a problem. Including other 2 device from my family member
Which Rom are you on? If its Fourth Sense then that ROM has a touch problems. Happened to me , I changed the Rom back again and that did the job for me.

I don't believe its a faulty device, it might be the actual rom, or some apps...when I restart my phone I run the mutitouch app and all 4 points register perfectly...after about a minute or so, the 4th point starts messing up...
sometimes, I can only get 1 touchpoint at a time to register properly....I'm on stock rooted rom.
I'm going to nandroid my phone and put stock nonrooted and stock rooted on my phone, to find out if it fixes the problem and if the roms make a difference. If not, then I would blame some of the apps. I've heard some roms such as beast rom work very well with touchpoints, so i'm guessing it has something to do with the stock rom itself.
right now I'm on stock kernel, but I was on faux, I'm going to also try to see if kernels make a difference:
This won't be over night, I will need time to do all this, I don't have time to mess with my phone when i need it.
update:
other people with roms and problems: it seems to be the rooted stock does not work well with touchpoints,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1430210&highlight=gta
so far beastmod and android revolution hd are roms that have been reporting to work well with touchpoints if you want root.
Or.... Buy a phone for gaming....lol
Wasnt the main selling point of this phone the camera?
There is no doubt my old g2x blows away the amaze for games and video....
But I knew that buying this phone.
Even the best game eVAHr , atomic bomber, doesn't respond well on this phone. I mention this because AB is a pretty basic game.

[Q] Capacitive Buttons Brightness

Hi,
is there any way to adjust the brightness of the capacitive buttons?
Most of the time I can hardly see them (in normal daylight) and have to cover the top of the phone (earpiece / front camera) so that they light up.
Thanks in advance for any help
There's an app file it for the HOX. Ill talk to the Dev to see about modding for our device.

I think I came across that app yesterday and was quite happy to find it, but yeah, unfortunately it's not working on the HOX+
Would be great if it can be modded for the HOX+

If you are running OrDroid rom, then check HERE. Perfect settings for me. Might work on other roms too. This mod has adjusted sensor sensitivity values in framework-res.apk, so flashing it might overwrite another mod!

I'm currently still running stock ROM with a few visual tweaks but they just don't appear to turn on soon enough.
It's like if there us any ambient light, no matter how dim, they won't show!!! Stupid decision by HTC. :banghead:

I read somewhere that it is a known issue that the lights don't always turn on when they are supposed to. As for the brightness of the buttons, I believe they only turn on or off.

AWESOME!!! Thanks a lot.
I applied it to Stock ROM, now whenever the screen is on, the buttons are, too. Perfect. I love my HOX+ again
is there a way to turn it off permanently?

Anyone notice the light of the buttons leak through the screen and wash out the whites you can tell when you power down the phone than turn it on and as soon as its on you should notice

how to strip an atrix

Hi so for starters i have looked around and tried to find a definite answer but couldn't get a real conclusive answer.
I have an atrix running NottachTrix 2.1.0 running with Ubuntop and now recently the Chroot backtrack on webtop. every thing is amazing except speed. i usually have 200-380 MB of ram and i know that other roms can boast closer to 600/800 MB. i recently replaced my digitizer and now the lack of speed is more noticeable. the touch screen is now slow to respond and kinda buggy ( i get that that's probably a hardware issue from the new digitzer) but with the slow phone it REALLY gets bogged down when i try to use basic functions.
basically i am wondering what i can do to cut out more crapware, i know i can freeze apps in titanium backup but i have no idea what's essential and what isnt. its taken a ton of work to get the webtop to work the way it does so i dont want to risk losing it with a different ROM. i can post screen grabs of anything you guys might want to see and am open to trying out. basically im wondering
1. how can i strip my atrix down to increase room/speed
2. anyone know anything about weird responsive screens ( it double presses buttons or wont pick up my touch. maybe a app can help ?)
Attached are some screen grabs so you all can see my specs and whats running

I am 90% sure it is the faulty digitizer who is slowing your phone down...
Mainly because i had the exact same issue with mine
