Is there a way to improve touch buttons sensitivity?
Thanks!
Well, it turns out there is!
I have performed the touch buttons firmware update, and it did improve the
sensitivity!

[Q] Touch Screen Buttons not functioning during an Active Call

Windows Mobile Version: 6.5
Manila Version: 2.5.20181527.0
ROM Version: 3.14.405.2 (04666) WWE
Hi, bought my HD 2 a week ago and every time I am in an active call the touch screen buttons don't seem to function. Specifically, the 'end call' touch screen button, menu buttons etc. The hardware buttons work fine, which is why I end the call using the end call hardware button.
Outside of an active call, the touch screen buttons work fine. Just seems to be during an active call.
Was wondering if there's any help on this. Seems to be like there's not a fault, but more like a restriction or something stopping the touch screen buttons from being able to function when in an active call. However, I'm a new HD 2 user so I am slightly inexperienced as to what to do.
Further info can be given if needed. Thanks and any help is appreciated
I have exactly the same problem after I installed ROM 3,14. After some tests, I found out, that the screen buttons are working if you hold and swipe carefully, but they are very unresponsive. I think there should be a registry tweak available for this - I tried to find hints in the XDA forums without any luck. Anyone could help?
I have the same problem with all of the 3.14 based roms too.Is there any help to solve this massive problem?

I think I just found the solution - at least it worked for me...
Have you done the registry tweak #44 from the registry tweak thread? If yes, revert back, and voila, problem solved. I copy here for reference:
"44. Prevent Accidental Link Activation When Scrolling
Do you scroll and find you accidentally click on something? This tweak is for you. Note: Can cause problems for some so remember original value in case to revert back. Note: for some, users cannot tap on screen buttons during a call. Revert to original reg entry if this is the case.
HKLM/System/GWE/Touch/Filter/Minimumtaptime
Change from 0 to 30"

[Q] Freeze/Lock Screen from touch input

I want a way to disable touch screen input so for example when watching a video I don't knock it off or pause it etc (there was a better reason I can't think of npw). Does anyone know if such a feature is possible? Thanks.
It is not currently available because then what are you gonna do to get out. Interesting idea though. Hope this helped!

what a nonsense! swipe well how do you get to recent apps by swiping! you meant to long press. my question was any solution as (kernel) not to workaround it. it was never designed to work swipe it was designed to work by press, and it does not!
I removed the screen protector and it did improve the touch sensitivity considerably.

does it really?
I think so, I did the same with my Arc and Tablet S . Improved response and not so much a dust magnet

Swipe actually works fine for the recent apps. Just stop on the dot and wait.
Personally, I find the swipe motion easier then aiming for the silly dot. Never had issues since starting to swipe rather than press. But that's just me.
For me it works when pressing above the dots, not directly at the dots (about halfway from the dots to the display).
Also, I can press anywhere near the dots when using the whole thumb instead of only a fingertip.
so what you saying we cant increase sensivity with kernel

This is typically a hardware restriction. No software changes could possibly enhance the touch sensitivity. These dots weren't made like other Androids' capacitive buttons.
Correct me if I'm wrong though, but to me it doesn't seem possible

[HOW TO] Increase touch sensitivity and Double-Tap-To-Wake Functionality(Force Touch)

First of all, thanks to @xtermmin for pointing me in the right direction for this.
Steps to increase touch sensitivity and get DTTW functioning better:
Download Shortcut Master Lite
Hit the ellipsis at the top right and click App Explorer (Yes to the error)
Tap anywhere to get the loading circle to go away and find something called Force Touch
In the Force Touch menu, select ZteLCDPressureSettings and hit Launch
Here you will find some options.
Tap Pressure Sensitivity and move the red dot slider all the way to the left where the green "Light" is.
Back out of the menu and you are done.
There are some other things under features that may be of interest as well to some people.
Additionally, there are a couple other items in the Force Touch menu that could play a role in ROMs down the line. The "Press Image" option has a toggle within that item but it does not stick upon backing out and reentering the menu.
If you find anything else of interest, please let everyone know so we can make this the best phone we've ever owned.
Thanks!
Awesome, T2W works better now.... Thanks
P. S. Adding your thread to my all in one place guides.

This definitely helped! Kinda odd that there is a slight delay from when you double tap and when it actually wakes. I remember the LG G2 responding more quickly with this feature. Also miss the double tap to lock screen too that almost no other phone had (though with nova launcher and an app, you can do this). Regardless, I'm glad the functionality is there.
What's interesting about this little hack is that it clearly is using the force touch settings that will be found in the 6GB RAM model that has a force touch display. Funny how it remains in the ROM anyway, just tucked away since this model doesn't use force touch.
Can I remove the vibration when I use the double tap to wake?
This has made 0 difference for me. I've got a 64gb US variant. I've also noticed double tap to wake stops working when the phone is in Doze. Anyone else have this issue?
Same same with doze, but when my phone isn't deeply asleep this tip indeed increased touch sensitivity.

I've tried the mod but don't see any differences for better response for the double tap to wake.

I don't have anything like force touch in quick shortmaster app or shortcut master lite. I'm on european B03 update... Can anyone confirm this?

It's actually there as been always and with B02 software version.
Do hard reset if not see it
Something get wrong with upgrade in your case.

It's there by default on the US model, at least.
While this definitely improves DT2W functionality, it's still temperamental. I find that now it responds best to very light touches, but harder taps are ignored. If I tweak it to be less sensitive, it does exactly that: it requires a harder touch at all times. Why can't it just respond to a range of touches? My G3 worked just fine in this regard.

Totally agree with this. It's still very inconsistent, but mine does work if I slam it twice as well as tap it lightly twice. It doesnt always work and it's still delayed. This was sort of a bandaid for a bigger problem though. I hope CM, and ....probably nothing else? at this point...can address it further.

At EU version I don't see any option for vibration so far.
But totally agree I would like to be more response to a range of touch.
I remember when had LG flex 2 was better implementation than ZTE.
Hope future update improve that.

Quite honestly, the Axon 7's story is perpetually: "[insert company here] did a better job of implementing [insert feature here]". There is very little (if anything) that the Axon 7 does better than the big manufacturers, IMO. It does a passable (sometimes even decent) job of most things, though - and at an appreciable discount - which is why I still have mine. It's a budget flagship. It's high-trim Toyota versus a Lexus. Add to that the potential for improvements via software (which is the source of many of my complaints, really), and I think it's a solid buy with quirks I'm willing to live with for a little while as ZTE steps up and makes improvements.
Yep exactly from hardware point is very very capable device but from software although it's pretty good level but there's still staff for many improvements.
Axon 7 is my first Chinese smartphone from Chinese company until now and I'm quite pleased with the all package offering having it 5-6 days,but I would like to see from ZTE much more effort and listening the user base and bring as much improvement and tweaks to the software.

I already did factory reset. And then again . No such setting in quickshortmaker. I can post pics.. Weird...
Edit..
Did change language to English and found it ?

I notice no difference in the week that I used this tweak. So I just put this settings back. Yup, still no difference to me.

Screen sensitivity

Hello, big problem with screen sensitivity. Really annoying, when typing, only a light touch
brings up multiple or wrong letters. Is there any way to adjust the sensitivity?
It is spoiling my experience of an otherwise great phone.
Any advice appreciated. RH.
I had the same issue. Found a potential fix just now. I'm still experimenting... But it does appear to be effective...
Go into settings......Language and Input...scroll to pointer speed​...decrease the slider to make the touch screen less sensitive

Hi there, many thanks for your suggestion. I have come across this solution before, unfortunately it does not
seem to make any difference to my touch screen. I have tried Swiftkey in the hope that may make a difference - no luck i'm afraid.
Please let me know if you have any success with your experimenting.
Regards RH.
