Is anyone annoyed by this, it seems every time I want to scroll with two fingers it zooms ever so slightly.

Scroll with one finger... Is normal to zoom if you move your fingers slightly one to another while scrolling
How do u scroll with one finger, surely this moves the mouse pointer.

No problem for me. I keep my fingers together.

Sorry, I wrote from phone and I haven't seen that text was deleted.
Use one finger on screen, that's why ouy have a touch screen.
For scrolling using the touchpad you can keep the fingers together, any way you like, or better yet keep the fingers one on top of the other.
That sounds so wrong xddd

just double tap on trackpad with one finger, hold finger on 2nd tap then sroll up or down.

On my iPod, when I long press on some text I've entered, a little magnifying glass pops up and allows me to easily move between letters in a sentence to fix errors. With Android, there's no real way to do this. I don't have a trackball and tapping where you want the cursor to move is very inaccurate.
I remember some talk about developing something similar to iOS4's letter-to-letter selection, but a search didn't return anything on it. Has there been any development on this?

You know, I was wondering the same thing! Hope there is some solution down the road, I was thinking maybe that will be incorporated into Gingerbread.
This would be pretty cool to have.

Hey guys,
When using the browser in HTC Desire HD, when swiping up and down the pages, do you all feel that sometimes when you swipe too fast up or down and stop the page suddenly, the page will still be scrolled up or down as per your previous action?
Anyone feeling this?
guess this call kinetic scrolling
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Erm.. any way to disable it?
Yes, it happens here to. And i guess you mean that when scrolling, it jump far too long? Or?

Yup that's right. When you do a flick of finger, it gets scrolled down quickly but when you stop halfway, and release it, the page continue to get scrolled down as per like the previous action when you do a flick of the finger. Same?

its called kenetic scrolling and its ment to be there all you have to to to stop the scrolling is to touch the screen, its so you can scroll long list with a quick flick
Yeah I understand but sometimes when I stop it then when I release it got all the way down. Quite irritating at times..

Does iPhone not have this kinetic scrolling, cause I didn't encounter this in iPhone.

Yup, same here. Doesn't happen a lot, but when it does, it's very annoying. It did also happen on my old 3GS. It happens when i'm "stressing" the browser, so i guess it freaks out, haha.
For the people that have the problem with the screen zooming while resting their hand on the screen try putting the pen close to screen before placing your hand on the sceen. Hope this helps people.

Or just switch to lecture notes, and set the settings to work with you, because there are plenty of settings to customize to work your your particular writing style. Only issue is the jagged writing at times.
But thanks for the tip I still use snotes for the formula writing and stuff

Hey so while fiddling around with my Note 2 today I discovered a new feature that I have never seen in any videos or in any thread so I figured I must not be the only one who didn't know.
This is an alternative to the current back and menu gestures which are shaped like this < and ^.
1) Go back gesture: On the bottom right side of the screen flush to the edge, simply swipe down while holding the S-Pen button, this will trigger the back button soft key.
2) Menu gesture: Similarly, just swipe with the S-Pen pressed on the bottom left side of the screen.
Although this is ultimately the same as the other gestures, I find this one MUCH easier to get used to rather than the awkward backwards arrow. Hope you enjoy this tip :highfive:

Dose do the job like u said
Much easier. Now if only it worked for HOME haha
Don't seem to work for me :s

Wow, actually it does work.
Great tip, thank you!
Much easier indeed compared with the arrows.
For those who can't find the trick. The line should be around one quarter of the screen height and should be finished on the bottom on the screen.

Wow works fine for me. Great, thanks.

Even works from the middle for me, as long as you're in the lower half of the screen when starting. But quarter works fine as well
Nice find!

Good Find !! :good:
HOME BUTTON: Make a "less than" sign anywhere on the screen
Quick Command: Make a 1inch line going UP anywhere on the screen
Menu: It's also works if you make a carrot sign, which is this: ^
EDIT: Nevermind, the less than sign is also a back button......
Cool! I was a little disappointed with those gestures, but now everything is so simpler! Thanks a lot!

Noticed a problem with the stock keyboard. Many times if I go to click one of the suggested words on top it puts a totally different word in the text field, usually the word isn't even one that was on the list.
Anyone else notice this?

Try to turn all settings off like the auto correct etc and then turn on each one after testing them one by one..see if that helps:silly:

I love the keyboard with the numbers always being on top, makes it so convenient and its just my favorite but. I don't see an option to let you backspace to erase the whole word with once click if you change your mind or just put the wrong word up, I can't stand having to hold the backspace all the way through it. So I'm using Swiftkey for now which is an awesome keyboard but doesn't have that dedicated number pad along the top but actually has many features that I don't care about and tons of themes too. I hope someone tells me that backspace setting is under my nose so I can use the LG one hehe. :silly:

Yea I thought I'd be able to place the number keys up top when I purchased swift key but it won't. I much rather prefer the numbers up top.

Yeah I love the top row as well, and it generally does a good job but does get stupid some times. I usually use the Google keyboard or Swype but have liked the lg one for now, just giving it a chance.

Did you ever find a solution to this? It's maddening. I tap the word I want and some completely random word that wasn't even close to what I tapped (and wasn't in the list of suggestions) shows up in the text box. I have searched and searched and you are the first person I've found who has had the same issue. I love everything else about the keyboard so I'd rather not switch to a different one!
Come on peeps, #1 app in the play store for months now. SwiftKey is the best keyboard out there. Stock is a bad keyboard.
