Does it work for S-pen writing some memos as well? It would be serious improvement if that's the case.

mmmm.. WIll have to test that out.

S-pen doesn't have that problem
And the patch doesn't work in the note.

Are there others who are experiencing this problem on their Note?

No. I've been doing pinch-zoom's in Gallery (which was where I noticed it from the SGS2) and don't notice any delays in finger recognition.

Alright that's good to hear. The problem might not affect all handsets.

Confirm the problem is there and even the app doesn't solve this, but I didn't really notice. S-pen in SMemo doesn't seem to be affected, but reducing to 0 the hyst still gives the "sticky" behaviour, which maye, or may not, be a con depending on the various uses.

so the way to confirm the problem if i understand correctly is to install the mentioned app and test for jumps in coordinates ?

Gnote
I have had my Gnote for 25 days, my device is way to sensative in certain areas of the screen with the S-pen only. i can hold my S-pen 10mm away from the screen and it will activate the apps or words. it gets annoying when im on a rush taking notes, it sometimes quadruple clicks on apps, i stop using my S-pen and get my screen dirty with natural oil smudges. Kinda Lame. Any way i am going to AT&T today to test a different S-Pen, or switch Devices.... Does anyone like the White GNote Vs. Black/ or blue?

Touch screen quality compare to other handsets

I have been using the Atrix for a few months. Last week, I have accessed to a Samsung Galaxy S2 and have played a few games with it. The touch screen on the S2 is very accurate and precise. In comparison, the Atrix touch screen is inaccurate and sluggish, especially if you're touching more than 1 point. This has nothing to do with the 10 seconds timeout that Motorola implemented. It's just the responseness on the touchscreen.
Tell me if i'm wrong, but don't we already have a MOD for that called "Touchscreen MOD (8 points)"
I saw it in the Dev thread under various roms like Darkside and WetDream.
Try it out and see if it helps
Install 'touchscreen booster' in market and select 'Super Optimized.'
Seems to make a difference here.

On a side note do have an idea on what basis this app improves the touchscreen? its good to know how something works too.

Yeah that one. Don't know how it makes it better, but it works so who cares
Just installed. I have been having sensitivity issues along with the device acting like it is being touched along the left side of the screen.

Nexus 4 pinch zoom delay

I just bought a Nexus 4, and am waiting for it to arrive. I just read about this dreaded pinch zoom delay (i.e. delay when zooming). Is this still an issue with the latest ROMs/kernels out there? I can see this causing me a lot of frustration if not fixed.
I've already searched, and the threads I've found are all either old or have not been completely answered.
Thanks!
I have no problem with zooming, and I bet that you won't too. Just wait for the phone, and don't read all the bad stuff. It won't do you any good. There are some rare bugs, but most users don't have them.
I don't have any delay in zooming issue either.

There is no zoom delay, its a dead zone. You have to move your fingers a certain amount before it detects it as a pinch to zoom or zoom out. I think it is intentional. Try doing it extremely slow, you'll see what I mean.

You've got it right. It's DEFINITELY present and those who don't see it either just innocently don't notice it or are denying it. Every single video review of the N4 I've seen has pointed out this issue (or feature, if you like) and I can very clearly see it on my device as well. OP, I'm not saying you should care about it (I don't even notice it any more) but it does exist.
I thought it was established long ago that the culprit was 'chrome' browser.. i just checked it in AOSP browser i cant seem to see any delay.

yeah its definitely there, but it is not lag, not even kind of, or delay or anything. it doesn't really bother me, i dont know why some people get so worked about it. what would happen if they cranked the dead zone down to zero... everyone would complain that its impossible to fine tune how close and far they are trying to zoom, or they keep zooming in and out on accident lol.
Yup, defiantly by design. If you start with your fingers already apart some, there is no delay at all.

the iphone don't have it so does my sister's xtreamer joyz(newman n2) with android 4.1.1 no one ever complained about hard fine tuning zoom!
i have this dreadfull deadzone too on my htc one x running aosp based 4.3(cm10.2) while on my sister's phone its a pleasent user experience.
note: THIS "LAG" IS NOT PRESENT IN FIREFOX!(no deadzone at all)
so definatly its an andorid gallery/gmail/browser(and any relying software like g+ whatsapp etc...) thingy.
this minimal distance deadzone is coming into notice when you are used to start zooming with fingers close together.
aka how zoom should be.
any way of trimming that distance out?

[Q] S-Pen is not accurate

Hi, i downloaded a cursive handwriting worksheet to practice with my s-pen, and its terrible to practice on!
and also i noticed that my s-pen was getting inaccurate on the collect button of smart select area, not its just inaccurate in most places ! its around 1mm off at most, but annoying!
anyone knows any way to make it work good again? it wasn't like that when i tried it on store!
at the right bottom cornet its even worst!
This only happens at the bottom half of the screen right?
I've tested it too and I get the same results as you, afaik there's no fix and apparently according to some it's a feature that is intentional for some reason.. same on Lollipop that I'm running.

So sounds like i'm not the only one, but it randomly goes off a LITTLE sometimes on everywhere, which i fixed by writing
but this is amazing compared to my note N7000, it would draw like 5mm away from the s-pen sometimes
BTW i have KK, no Lollipop for SM-910h yet! yet.....

Does your touchscreen wiggle when we hold finger on it?

Hi.
Just bought s7 edge loving it.
Before i was using iphone 6s. I also used note 5 for week i didnt liked touch response was bit low latency and slow unlinke iphone.
I really like new series. Everything is good. I started noticing new thing. Touch response is also good on this phone but I saw new thing. When we hold finger on touchscreen also like when we rearrange icon by holding it.
I see touchscreen is wiggling like a old phone is getting charge and touchscreen is shaking like virus..
Have you ever noticed that?
Or screen is over sensitive?
I will also make video to describe.

Doesn't do it here (using the Exynos variant)
I see what you mean but I have not noticed it on mine. I would if I had it because I'm sensitive to stuff like that. Though it IS a sensitive screen. Even after the update that fixed the severe oversensitivity. It's not a problem anymore though. Before the update it would register presses before you even touched the screen. Hovering the finger 0,5mm above the screen would trigger it.
I would say i have noticed what you are experiencing.
but not to a level it was noticeable./
To me it felt more like the phone was responsive to my touch more than previous devices.
And as this is incredibly quick, it was reflecting this on the animation
(While other devices that are slower would not show it)
I noticed this stopped when using the tip of my thumb instead of the flat.
But more productive, What version are you running?
There has been various updates that improve the stability.
I upgraded and rolled back due to loosing a feature.
(Whitelisting Caller ID) (Stops unwanted calls)
But noticed a improvement to the touch sensitivity being abit over sensative one may say

Thanks for replies.
Im running pd1 something like that written at last.
For me it's not big issue.
I hope you got what I tried to show.
I mean I only see wiggle when I hold finger after sec it get fine but for sec it wiggles. There is also a wiggle when I swipe left right instantly I'm not talking about it.
I'm talking about, when I try to zoom a picture. It wiggles when on stable finger for a sec. Software down the touch response after a sec then wiggle gets fine.

Yea it's not annoying but it feels cheap.
Actually cheap phones have this thing especially when we use it while charging.
I'm not saying s7 edge is bad phone. I still love it.
But I really seek fix for that.

This is a software "issue" and not a hardware issue, so this is something that can be fixed by an OTA. Could you install Nova Launcher and see if the wiggling is still there? I just want to check that it's not anything with the Samsung launcher.

bought a brand new indian set s7 edge. And i am also facing the same issue. What is to be done to fix it? I have tried the *#2663# stuff. It doesnt help at all.
Yeah my phone does that too!
It STILL ANNOYS me daily because I notice some imperfect scrolling! I am very sensible to smooth scrolling and I can notice some imperfections on this phone!
Besides it jumps up sometimes when scrolling down... and the opposite way around!
See my poll on g+: https://plus.google.com/+GeorgesGeagea/posts/Vp8Xc5nwTtt
Try *#2663# and Update the stuff there. It will help. What i think is that its an over sensitivity problem. Had it alot on Note 4. Not any on s7 edge. I have the Exynos version.

redmi note 7 ran smoother while charging.

Anyone facing the same problem? Is it something to do with the battery optimisation?
Mine makes no difference, smooth as butter all the time. Maybe you need to debloat the crapps?

Yep I have the touch latency problem too, I actually made another post about that
Fortunately, I don't have the touch latency issue. I only heard it emerged for some Chinese users with MIUI 10.3.5.
For people who've had it since they bought it, might be the case of a bad batch of digitizers used by Xiaomi. The phones are under warranty, why not simply send them for repair/replacement?

Mine is the global version, not the Chinese version and I tested the demo in the store and it kinda had like the same problem.
So how bad is the latency? Are you talking about micro lag, or something that effectively prevents normal typing? If I'm really trying to dissect it on my device, I can notice a lag when quickly swiping up and down multiple times without pausing. Or if I open a drawing app and draw lines very quickly. Even then, it is a barely noticeable latency. And I don't have any issues typing. If in your case it's (much) more than what I described, you should definitely replace the phone or have it repaired.

I think you described some of the problems I have, is exactly what you are talking about. Is barely noticible many of the times, but doing some task like reading a book is just kinda annoying, cause I need to kinda scroll more to make it move. Can you maybe do a screen video with the pointer location on your screen so I can see if you're actually having the exact same problem? For the typing issue, is also quite minor but noticible when you're typing really fast.
