[Q] Touch Screen issue - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi Experts,
I have flashed a rom by customizing it to my needs. After flashing, everything is fine..except that touch screen does not behaves normally. I am getting a ring which i have to move and place on the item that i need to touch and select.
Can someone tell me what can be the reason behind this?

You're on an ICS or JB-based ROM? Check the Development section in Settings, I'm sure you can turn that ring off there, something with visual feedback for touch or cursor-location, I'm sure you can find it.

Interactive Touch (Like the Voyager)

I did a search on PPCGeeks, XDA, and Google, and couldn't find any app to make the touch screen on the Titan interactive - similar to the way the Voyager touch screen works (quick vibrate when the screen is touched).
Is there any app like this? If not, can someone make one?
Thanks!
You would think HTC being one (if not THEE one) #1 Smartphone manufacture that would have SOMETHING similiar to the iphone or Voyager. The HTC Cube to me is very "amatuer" looking compared to the iphone and Voyager UI. Even microsoft couldn't make anything similiar...hopefully WM7 will blow us away.
I agree that the Cube looks pretty basic (that's why I won't put it on my phone, but I do have the TouchFLO).
But what I'm looking for is for the phone to do a very quick vibrate whenever the screen is touched.
That technology is called Haptics and it is much more than just the phone vibrating. Haptics allows you to physically feel a vibration exactly on the spot of the screen you are touching. Your phone has to have Haptics vibration built into it to use it and there isn't a single HTC phone out there using the said technology.

Indeed.
That said, I'm still interested in any app that does simply what whiteblazer01 asked for. I'm always looking over my fingers when I'm trying to dial a phone number. I'd be willing to give a simple touch-response app a shot.
Anyone?

I have been looking into this also. Especialy when i use the media player or just the main screen shortcuts.
In the mean time I was able to find a CAB somewhere in this forum that enables vibration feedback when you dial a number. It replaces the tone with vibration. I hope you guys like it. (Sorry I dont have support for it because I am not the original creator of this CAB)
Make sure that once you install the CAB that you soft reset after.
Hope you like it.
That's exactly what it is - Haptics. Thanks for the link. The program [email protected]$ put a link to (thanks!) works on the keypad, but it really doesn't feel like the Haptics system. O well, its still cool though.
I found a link to another thread on this forum for the same thing. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1685449

I was thinkin about how we can make the phone vibrate when we tap the screen in any application instead of only the dial pad.
I came up with a theory that might give us some type of haptics feed back. It might not be exactly like haptics but it could make the phone vibrate.
There is a feature in our phone that can enable the phone to play a sound when we tap the screen for any reason. I was thinking why not replace the sound with just vibration like the CAB that changes the sound to vibration on the dialer?
Im not experienced at programming, but I am willing to take a shot into making this possible. Maybe some one can get a hold of a good programmer or some one good at registry tweaks to make this possible.
Just an idea

Great Idea [email protected]$, deffinately move forward with it, Ive been using the phonepadvibrate (essentially the same as what you posted) for well over 2 months now and love it. If you could do the same with the normal touch screen it would be amazing.
Yes its not full haptics, but in my opinion it really doesnt need to be. some sort of physical feedback (ie a slight vibration) would be great when working with the touch screen.

Carlos, I definitely agree, I would love to have that whenever the screen vibrated. Although, I don't know who would be willing to do that. I remember when I had the Apache (XV6700), I thought it would be cool if someone could make the LED lights on top into indicator lights for the shift and caps keys - which never happened (I don't know how, otherwise I would do it myself).
In fact, I wonder if someone can make a cab to have the shift and caps buttons make the indicator lights turn on whenever the buttons are pushed, not just when shift lock or caps lock are enabled.

It is very possible. I found other sources and they have some sort of program / prototype that can make this happen but it doesnt work on every tap of the screen.
What I want to do is make mine work on every tap of the screen but have the ability to turn it off and on to save power. Like turning the notification for the sound to play when you tap the screen on and off.
So far I have planned some steps to do it through the registry but since I am not an expert at programming like others are here it might take a while.
But any help is very welcome to complete this project and make it available for all.
As to changing the LED's on your phone. I think no2chem and some other guys found a way to customize your LED settings, but I'm not sure if it will be custom enough to indicate caps or shift. Maybe in the near future.

I am sure you probably have. I have the copy of the program that enables this feature. I believe it is extracted from a phone that has haptic feed back. But it is an executable.
This program is faulty. It doesn't respond on every tap and has performance issues. Other then that there hasn't been another one developed.
I'm trying to find a way to fix the issues of of the one that I found. Maybe by creating a new way to enable haptic feed back like I posted on previews posts, but it might take time to develop because I'm still learning how to mess with WM Reg. and programming.

i still havent tried the program out yet i really dont see the use for it
Let me know what you find out Carlos. I would agree with you that it may be better to have the phone vibrate maybe when any button is pushed instead of anytime the screen is tapped (or maybe have the option to choose?), and also have the option to turn it off. Lol, maybe we can call it "Taptics" instead of Haptics.
As for the LED's, I'll check with some of the other guys about what they can do. I do a lot of modding myself with other electronics (cars, motorcycles, game consoles, etc...), but I don't really get into programming all that much (although the logic makes sense to me).

Okay, so I noticed the phone does vibrate, however, when using the keypad while in a call, it makes a different tone, and does not vibrate.
Also, is there any update on ways to make all buttons vibrate (and configurable) when pressed? And of course, an option to turn the feature off?

I am not sure for all buttons but there is a CAB to make the phone vibrate when you press the screen. I tried it out and it works, but it's faulty and kills performance.
I'm still working on this project. I haven't had much time to work with it, but if any break through happens then I will post it up.

[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"

ON-SCREEn Buttons Mod (Like on the Galaxy Nexus)?

Hey Guys,
well the topic already explains my concern. I would like to know if there is a way to activate on-screen buttons on my S3 like its standard on the GNex and deactive! the touch buttons, but not the Homebutton .
I find it not convenient to use the touch buttons because they are pretty far down in my opinion, Im always scared to drop the phone if I dont use two hands, while trying to touch it and sometimes if I push stuff whats on the bottom of the screen, I accidently push the touch buttons, this is pretty anoying too.
So, is there maybe someone working on sth. like that or is it even possible to change this without flashing a custom rom?
Thanks n greets
Rob
No one an idea?
I would also like it if someone can do this.
It's definitely possible: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1696092

[Q] A few noob Galaxy questions

I've recently switched from a Galaxy Nexus to an S4 after a couple of years. I really like the S4, but I have a couple of nitpicks and questions, and was wondering if anyone could help out.
First, the bottom buttons annoy me since my Nexus and Nexus 7 are the exact opposite. Is there any way, mod or otherwise, to switch the back and menu buttons?
Is there any way to make the number pad use a normal number tone instead of the water drop noise?
TouchWiz was ok, but it was too restrictive with how I normally use my phone. I switched to Nova Launcher and infinitely prefer it. Does anyone know if the CM10.2 is going to be using the standard Nexus layout? If so, will that fix the above problem as well?
Every time I want to connect my headset, it pops up in the middle of the screen saying paired, and I have to touch it to connect. Is there a way for it to just connect automatically every time?
The boot screens are a little much for me, and the Rom Toolbox said it flashed a new one, but it never happened. Is there a special way this needs to be done?
Finally, I have a battery question, but I went ahead and posted a detailed question about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2421591
Thanks in advance for your help everyone!
1.you can always find a rom with soft keys available.
2. I believe cm will let you customize.
3.idk about headset
4. Assuming you have recovery, I'd just download a flashable boot screen and flash iy

[Q] A few problems with Tigra rom for N7100

Hi everyone!
Very first post in here, I really want to thank everyone for all the answers I have been finding for years here!
But today, I am not able to find a solution to my problems, with this amazing rom... So here I am.
I have followed the instructions to install this rom, as usual. I even changed my recovery and installed succesfully the latest Philz recovery.
Everything that I read that went wrong for other people went actually good for me. Problem is I identified three things that don't work, I searched this whole forum and the internet with no success:
1) page buddy does not work. I get the small vibration when spen is detached, i get the favorites in the notification bar, and the spen icon on the top left corner, but the actual spen related page (homescreen) does not show up!
2) smart alert does not work, no vibration when phone is "shaked" while an unread message notification is displayed...
3) the keyboard does not automatically switch from typing to writing and vice versa, when spen is detached ornpluged back in.
If the dev or someone using this rom can confirm / help, it would be awesome!!!
Many thanks in advance
