I don't know if its just me but i feel like my L9's touch screen is a little bit out of sensitivity? I come from a Huawei Ascend G600 that i sold two days ago and bough this the next day. Sometimes i have to push the bottoms a little bit harder than usual, before i just had to lay the finger on the screen (and it works sometimes) but most of the times, i do have to push my finger on the screen for it to work (not that hard but in my opinion it shouldnt be like that)
Pardon my shty english. Just wondering if this is only me or every phone is like that.

The touch sensitivity leaves much to be desired if you are running ICS but JB improves it and overall smoothness.

This only happens to me when i use my finger. Idk why it isn't that responsive.. Use your thumbs then you'll see a difference.

On ics if auto rotation is disabled it will effect the touch sensitivity. Keep it enabled and you won't have a problem. This issue is fixed on jb

Hi all.
A question for those who have the device. Is the touchscreen unresponsive or lag?
As you can see in this video there is a lot of lag, and even that the touchscreen dosent notice he swiping the glass.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaDu4YeKF4Q&feature=player_embedded
Is this a bug on pre-shipped prime or is it for everyone.
Sorry for bad english.
Best regards.

No, this guy just doesn't know how to use a touch screen. He is touching it very strange, from an angle which is not normally used. Could also be that his finger tips just aren't very sensitive to any touchscreen.
This is btw the only video I found where the screen isn't responding like it should.

And this, with the strange angle and the light tapping the screen doesn't work sometimes.
Thanks for clearing this up guys!
I have a friend that gets dry skin in the cooler months and has to put lotion on his hands or he cannot use his touchscreed phone.
Its pretty responsive especially on Normal mode, fastest android tablet i have ever played with, it looks even more responsive than the ipad2. As for press not registering, it has more to do with HC than the tablet itself, for example pressing the x button on the task switcher sometimes doesnt respond, and you have to press the space in between.
it does not respond to girly touches is the best way to describe it.. its not a flower its a power house ready to rumble

I'd agree with this...it definitely takes a more deliberate press than my DX, but I'm used to it now.

Which, by the way, is a welcome contrast to the Kindle Fire which seems to pick up even the lightest touch and that makes it less usable.
I picked up my Prime last night and that's the first thing that I noticed - I have to press harder on the Prime than on my phone (Evo 4g) in order for it to register. Was having a lot of trouble with the stock honeycomb keyboard. It was getting frustrating and I was worried it was an issue with my device. I switched to Swype and it was much better.
I've noticed that I don't have problems with swiping screens. The big problem is button presses. Hopefully it is really just a Honeycomb issue.
I've noticed that the touch screen will sometimes press before I actually touch it. How can I decrease sensitivity. I'm using CleanRom Developer Edition 1.2.
Yes! I've had this same problem too! No answer for you, though.
I believe I've had this all along, on GB, ICS, and a variety of ROMs, so I'm afraid it may be a hardware issue. But, I'm no expert...
Thanks. Definitely no reason to go to the GNexus (Ugghh). I've heard that screen protectors help so I ordered some to try that out.

I have a screen protector and this still happens. I never tried it without a screen protector so I don't know how much of a difference it will make
Surely there is a way to fix this. Maybe in the build.prop?

Strangly im having a very sensitive touchscreen to. Especially when trying to use my keyboard. Ive calibrated as well

Use a screen protector. Helps.
Ordered screen protectors, they come in Monday. This is really the only issue I have with the device. If it's something that the phone just ships with I'm fine with it. If not, I'm wondering if I should return due to a faulty touch sensor.

I have a lcd protector on and it doesnt help at all.
I have set up many rezounds for our company and the strange thing is that this oversensitive behavior you are reporting is happening with completely stock phones as well. I've noticed it with 3 different Rezounds. Very strange behavior indeed. Complete resets of the phones doesn't seem to help. I rooted one and did a complete reflash of the phone and the problem went away. It's almost like the flash went wrong somehow, but very strange to see from a phone that came directly from Verizon brand new.
Personally I like the sensitivity. I would rather a nice light touch be registered then having to mash my finger on the screen. Makes typing easier.

It's not a light touch. I've checked, it sometimes registers just above the touch screen.
I have yet to have the sensitivity be a problem... Maybe yall came from different phones than me
Sent from my Dinc... I mean Rezound
My rezound is completely stock/ not rooted/flashed or anything, I've noticed this since the day I got it in Nov. sometimes my fingers can be a few mm above the screen and it registers a touch. sometimes it doesn't bother me but sometimes if my finger is slightly above the search button and it registers it while i'm trying to do something else, it's pretty annoying
Stock, Rooted...
I've never seen this issue. The screen is very sensitive, but not any different from my previous phone (Orig Droid Incredible).

Same. The sensativity is more like the iPhone. I hate to say it, but I loved the iPhone for that. I used to type so fast. Then I got my first android phone and had to slow down because it didn't seem to always register my input. The rezound I can type really fast again.

I agree with this as well. I do notice it's way sensitive. I remember a few times where it registered a touch and I completely swore I never touched the screen. Anyway it doesn't bother me one bit.
I think it's way to sensitive.
Sometimes when I move my finger pass the screen it presses the button. It doesn't happen all the time tho. Just 10% of my typing, which is also happening now.
Thank you for your time.

weird, the default touch sensitivity is normal. may be either its not suiting your taste or your previous mobile is les sensitive.
Feels alright to me, but apparently Gorilla Glass 2 being thinner helps increase sensitivity.

Maybe you're right, as I can from the N8. How ever when I try to touch a specific key ONCE it gives me doubled press. And I think this should not happen.

they said it's like xperia sola floating touch but worse
I suspect batch product replacement coming soon
I've noticed that it's very sensitive too.
On the s2 people were saying the sensitivity is too low. Now ppl are saying its too high...

The OFFICIAL samsung said my hands were dry with caused extra static (in Thailand it's a bit cold and dry despite that it's a rainy season, maybe it's the air-con)
and that they recommended applying Vasline to my hands prior to use... which seemed to be pointless, that's a lil too much of "Design for Humans" don't ya think lol
I wish i could readjust the sensitivity like I could with my Acer Iconia Tab A500
Mine does the ghost pressing too sometimes. It isn't often, but my finger hovering over the display will activate it.
Sent from my GT-I9300
I tried the touchscreen with both latex and vinyl gloves and it works perfectly, so I guess it's really sensitive.
if you think it's very sensitive for you, then you can apply screen guard to reduce the touch screen sensitivity.
Hope this will help you..

already did.. not seems to thick enough it seems
Mine is also too sensitive. I noticed same symptoms like others in this thread after I applied screen protector prom PURO which is really really thick .
On the package it guarantees that it does not reduce touch sensibility... I guess they don't lie
I guess I need to find cheaper one
can you calibrate the screen?

I only found gyro calibration and did that. I'm also on rom (Omega - ICS) but did not see anything on stock either. I remember on SGS2 there was option to calibrate where you had to touch corners and center.
It's not that annoying, at first I thought that it might be a feature - air touch
Or it might be that my screen protector does the opposite - increase sensibility. In any case I need to get new one because this one is not clear (its a bit matte) and colors don't show up correctly.
Hi - If I touch the screen *very* gently, it doesn't register as a touch.
Does anyone else have this? If your P9000 is OK, please let me know.
Most of the time it's OK, but it's extra annoying when I'm swiping a long word which gets split into two smaller words. I do have the screen protector on - Obviously I don't want to remove it just for testing, but I realise it might be affecting sensitivity.
Over the years I've had ~5 phones with capacitive touchscreens. This is the first I can touch without it the phone 'realising'.
Thanks, Richard
PS - I've enabled the 'Show touches' in Developer options. The accuracy is fine, it's just it's not quite sensitive enough.

i have similar problem because the glass folie is on the phone. Im sure because i used without too... but I rather use like this..
So the screen protector made your screen less sensitive?

yes, i have glass screen protector on my p9000 and it makes the digitizer less sensitive..
Thanks NX82. That's good news and bad news !
I want to have a screen protector, but sometimes the phone doesn't recognise/acknowledge gentle taps on the screen.
I'll try one other screen protector, if that doesn't work, I'll ask Amazon to replace it.

Yes. my screen also less sensitive with the screen protector, but i dont want to scratch the phone, so i rather use with the screen protector.. for me the less sensitive areas are around the edges of the protector.. but i can live with this problem. I know if i remove it gonna be okay again.. maybe possible to put a thinner folie on the screen and thats gonna be better. the protector glass is a little bit thick. probably this is the problem.
I also experienced a reduction in sensitivity after applying a glass screen protector. Without it phone always reacted okay, but with my protector the first miliseconds of my touch aren't registered it seems. I have more trouble typing and sometimes swiping lags. I have adjusted my usage and can live with it now though.
Yes a screen protector can make it less sensitive. But all I did was download this : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=br.shop4apps.touchscreenbooster.com
And then set it to super optimised and make sure it runs at boot and problem solved.

Hi. Yes I'm using it on my elephone p9000 right now. I didn't need a reboot tbh. So not sure. Could be a fiffy touchscreen you have in yours?

Well see how it goes and hopefully it does the trick. The p9000 glass isn't anything special. Don't want it to crack or scratch so we need something to protect it.
I have tried several touch calibrarion apps.
It seems like the restart is necessary to apply the new settings.
for me this application gave the best result:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=redpi.apps.touchscreencalibration
...and i still hoping its not just a placebo effect

same here : no effect
I have the same problem but all the above apps don't work for me. I will try to swap my screenprotector for another one tommorow. Hopefully this works.
I've found out/realised that the bottom of the phone is less sensitive than the top, so compare the top and bottom half of the screen.
The top of the screen is *almost* as sensitive as every previous smartphone I've owned or used (mainly Samsungs, HTCs and various iPhones). I can just touch the screen without it registering, but only just.
The bottom of the screen is a lot less sensitive. When selecting (tapping) things, it prob wouldn't be much of an issue, but when I Swype using the 'keyboard', I get dropped letters.
A screen protector reduces sensitivity further (a glass one more than a flexible plastic one, from my experience)

Hi guys, upgraded to the Mate 10 recently from a dying Galaxy S4. Love the phone but something has been bothering me since I noticed it yesterday.
Whenever I try to scroll on pages from the very edges of the screen (think half the finger is off the screen), the content on the screen doesn't scroll for about a few milliseconds then jerks suddenly towards my finger, as if to compensate for not scrolling earlier.
However, if I move my finger to the edge of the screen from somewhere else, scrolling works fine.
Has anyone else encountered this? Should I bring it back to have it replaced or is this just some software touch rejection at work? Pretty distressed as I intend to keep this phone for at least four years (same as my S4).
Thanks for any help!
Tried replicating on my Mate 10 (Rom 119). Works fine for me.
I have the same problem... Its just so bad when aiming in a game.

Because I tried to do it also, but it's working just fine for me.

And others... If you guys don't have this issue no need to say "you don't have this issue".... These are solution finding threads... Whatever you are trying to do... It doesn't help... Although you are not trying to help anyway
Probably full screen gestures messing with touch detection. Keyboard presses are also affected, must use Gboard in one handed mode so that it's smaller on screen and doesn't go to the edges
