how to make touch screen sensible just like iphone.. read.

[5harkology]

When I had mine set on 9,000 the scrolling worked great, but I was unable to highlight multiple messages/items (it would just scroll everytime). How are you guys dealing with this set on 30,000?

My biggest beef is I try to scroll (particulary in PIE) and I end up highlighting text or selecting hyperlinks. Is there any way to de-select the highlighting function? Or reduce the sensitivity of selecting instead of scrolling?

Thanks so much for this reg tweak. I had stopped using fTouchFlo all together because of its unresponsiveness. Tweaked it to 30,000, and wow! fTouchflo the way is was meant to work! Awesome!

Now, to your question 5harkology: I tested the new setting w/ my fingernail and my fat thumb.

- My fat thumb - scrolling is a breeze, but I cannot highlight anything.
- My fingernail - I'm only able to highlight w/ it, I cannot do scrolling at all, this included my stylus.

Hope this is helpful.

i cant highlight ANYTHING with it set like this.... its sorta cool cause you can screen drag in all apps, lol... but not being able to select anything sucks...

what was the default setting again?

its already been proven that changing the digits in the registry doesn't fully work. People are just better off doing the screen alignment test and pressing the target real softly.


I once put mine to 50,000 and it was very sensitive.. then I did it at 2,000 and it was sensitive. Hard reset my phone and put it to 2,000 and it wouldn't even read any touches... basically bricking the phone til another hard reset.



The Touch seems to adjust to your pressure the more you use it.


so please people, don't waste your time with this registry edit. You'll never get your phone close to the sensitivity of the iPhone.

Why would you tell people this, when it obviously works great as I and pretty much everyone else who has changed it can attest to?

With the stock setting it is nearly impossible to use finger scrolling effectively, it won't even move except the lightspeed auto scroll and with this simple edit it becomes 100% useable, letting you put your finger on the screen and slide it up and down and actually scroll.

The only downside for me is selecting contacts accidently while turning the cube.

I predict this setting will even be changed in a future Rom to make scrolling actually useable, the way it comes is ridiculous.

I highly doubt the Touch would actually monitor and adjust to the way you press the screen. It's much more likely that *you* are unconsciously adjusting your pressure to the screen's sensitivity.

look at the value then do a screen align and press harder or softer and it WILL change. thats how it sets up the touchflo to work for each users finger pressure

This is also how Every WM Device in recent years set the screen up... (Basically this thread happened before on the mogul forum, And it was confirmed that the Alignment app is the Best way to do this)
