I'm been messing around with my tablet and the multi touch apps that show the points that your tablet recognizes when you touch the screen. I found out that if i hold my finger on the bottom row of my tablet and then try and press with my right hand thumb on the same bottom row of the tablet the screen does not recognize my right thumb. Can others try the same thing and verify that this is an issue with the everyones touch screen and not just mine. If you play games like pewpew, minisquadron or samurai vengeance II, you may notice this issue where you can't use the virtual joysticks at the same time. Or they are not responsive. Can others give this a test and let me know if your tablet lets you hold your finger on the tablet and then press your other thumb on the same horizontal row.
I just tried this and with the power cord plugged in the touchscreen works Flawlessly but without I get the issue reported above.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I've tried the Calibration app and that does nothing.

Video shows what i'm talking about.
i have played samurai vengance, dungeon defenders and zenonia and all of them work correctly. have you checked this in other roms?
I'm thinking it is just vegan 5.1.1 i didn't seem to have this issue with Calkulins rom. What rom are you running?
I have noticed that Gun Bros has a problem with the two dpads, but it does not seem to happen in the multi-touch app. Strange

Odd, i think it is a rom issue. Gonna try another rom but I'm not sure which one. Frustrating.
I want good HD video playback without this multi touch issue.
I have not noticed this but if you have "Spare Parts" or "Developer Tools" there is a cool app in there that just shows where you touch and tracks it. If you touch 2 spots it shows that too. Open up Dev Tools and find Pointer Location. Impress your friends if nothing else.

I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue. There seems to be a delay or intermittent failure to detect a swipe to scroll.
For example, let's say I want to scroll down and there is a button that I happen to start my swipe on. Sometimes the button will actually get pressed instead of the swipe getting registered. It's really annoying...
Same
I have the same issue on my cowon z2 there is a lag when swiping
I think its B&N's sloppy touch screen driver, I belive there was a group working on fixing not only the lag but also adding 5 finger touch as opposed to only two. I don't think they're working on it right now because pretty Mich everyone is working on finishing the new 3.0 kernel. But I bet work on the touchscreen driver will start up again after the kernels release.

Yep, it turns out that touches do not register until you have swiped more than 4 pixels. That explains a lot. It also probably explains why my touch pen doesn't register very well. Hopefully they can come up with a fix. It is also good to know that I'm nor crazy. B-)
I've been experiencing an intermittent issue with my touchscreen when gaming. When I'm playing any games that require touching both sides of the screen at the same time to control the character(Dead Trigger, Wildblood, Shadowgun, Samurai Vengance) if I'm moving my left thumb on the screen to control the character and touch the right side of the screen to shoot/move the character/etc the touchscreen cancels what my left thumb is doing causing my character to stop moving. It's a total PITA. I thought it was something with the stock JB update but flashed MeanBean 2 days ago and am still having the same issue. Weird thing is there have been entire gaming sessions when this problem hasn't happened but it's borked at least 90% of the time.
Any suggestions???
P.S. I do have a Zagg HD installed but haven't had any issues with them since installing on launch day.

Ditto. I experienced the same problem in GTA III (when trying to drive, especially) and turned off HTC gestures, but the problem continued occurring.
I feel like I'm stuck in a situation where I don't want to take the screen protector off and order a replacement Zagg shield through warranty because if removing it for some reason fixes the issue I don't want to use a Zagg again...but I don't want to take it off without having another one handy.
So I just fired up some games and the screen is deciding to work properly today. This is frustrating lol
....and then a couple hours later I'm back to the screen not working properly again.
Just wanted to update this post about my findings. It turns out the new stock "No Lock Screen" option we got with JB breaks multtouch. Changing it to any lock screen other than "No Lock Screen" prior to using any application with multitouch will fix the issues.
Messing with the lock screen seems to do that. When I had widget locker it would do the same ****.

I had read a couple threads about that happening with 3rd party lock screens. It's weird that a stock lock screen is doing the same thing.
I just ran a couple test runs on games and the multitouch visual test from the Play Store and it seems that the issue with the No Lock Screen lock screen(and I'll assume Widget Locker and other 3rd party lock screens) are no longer breaking multitouch with this new touchpanel update. Freaking aye!!!!!!!!
Well, the touchscreen on my Lifepad S9314 is coming to an end. Via YATT (yet another touch tester app) i recognize there a a lot of spots where my 1-tap gesture/point will trigger 2-3 "ghost" taps on the same horizontal but on the other side of the screen. (which causes a multi-touch-gesture being recognized, which causes most inputs not doing what i intend to do. (Typing, Games).
Well i already ordered a new Lifepad (which is coming soon) but in the meantime i'm stuck with this one. Most of the time i have no problems, but sometimes the "ghost"-taps keep coming every time - very annoying. Anyway I just thought "why not plug a USB mouse in and play via mouse?" and it worked. (via package/stock USB-OTG-Cable).
I tried it out and it worked. Now i have a small mouse cursor on my tablet and can play around with a mouse. I can play games, but one point is still "missing":
how can i "emulate" a 2-finger tap (so a gesture where i touch the screen in 2 places, like for a blocking-sequence in a game)? Because every mouse button i press (left middle or right results in a single tap. I "could" just touch the screen with 2 fingers at events when needed, but as my mouse has more than 1 button, isn't there something like a "makro" wich for example tells the tablet, that right click results in that 2-finger-gesture? Or else like using mouse wheel for progressive/repetitive/fast/action tapping?
How to play asphalt 8 with keyboard??? I tried with gamepad it doesn't support all the keys only left right working .. Someone help me
It should say keyboard detected and show you the guide when you launch it. Arrows/wasd for movement, space for nitro, left ctrl for brake or drift(ctrl+ left/right button). Careful not to touch the touchpad, sometimes it goes crazy and the car goes around in circles and stop responding to keyboard, restarting the race will fix it. Also the cars/3d stuff only seem to show up in very high graphics settings, there's some kind of graphic glitch on my laptop, driver issue probably.

Keyboard detected is not showing but if i connect gamepad its showing gamepad detected.... Do i need to connect external keyboard? Or internal works for you?
My laptop's keyboard does work without issues, I didn't plug in external ketboard. Did you try just pressing the keys does the car respond? You could try google to see where the controls are mapped by default on a gamepad.

Don't know why my keyboard is not working. On gamepad only i can use left right keys...
So I play a lot of PUBGM. For anyone who's not familiar with the game, you can switch weapons by tapping one of the two weapons from the bottom central part of the screen, in landscape mode.
While playing my first game today, I noticed that I can't switch weapons for some reason, no matter how many times I tap it. I even noticed my keyboard going haywire in landscape mode around the exact same position of the weapon switcher in PUBGM.
So I downloaded an app named Touchscreen Test which shows whether the screen is working properly or not with the help of White and Green dots (Green being good, white being bad).
This was the result: https://i.imgur.com/8Uqn2lp.png
I don't know whether what or how this happened, as my phone was working absolutely perfectly yesterday.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
