Screen responsiveness - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've noticed that the screen responsiveness varies. Sometimes it takes a few touches before it responds other times it responds as expected.
Assume it's user error so are there any tricks/hints when using the N7? Not using a screen protector

+1 on this question.
Not sure if the varying screen response it me (user error) or the N7 itself.
Is anyone else having this problem? Or, as the OP asked, do you have any tricks/hints to share?

It looks like this happens to a bunch of people. It happens to me frequently and I usually just lock the device, pick it up and then unlock it being careful I don't have any fingers on the screen before I hit the button.
I'm not sure if it's a defect or not. Some say it is. I would tend to think so too.

There's another thread on this topic, there I asked this same question.
Do you have a screen protector installed?
If not perhaps you're in a region/area with high electrostatic or humidity, moisture..

No offense, but I doubt the electrostatic or humid environment idea since it seems to be solved instantly by turning the screen off and back on.
I have this problem with a screen protector installed. I may remove it and try without it, but I've never had issues with XO Skins before and don't really want to trash a $20 screen protector.

I have this problem without a screen protector on

I've notices laggy screen response on my 1 day old N7. I'm contemplating doing a factory restore/wipe.

I don't have a screen protector but it definitely lacks touch responsiveness.

I have had to on occasion press twice on buttons when the first press doesn't register as well. I've seen that other thread about playing games heating up the tegra chipset affecting screen responsiveness severely, but in my case this is from light usage.

Mine has been pretty responsive so far without any issue. Just got it yesterday.

I've started to notice this issue today for sure. I thought it was my imagination before as I had only gotten it in games but today I got it in tapatalk as well. Thinking about trying for a replacement. I had gotten mine at Walmart so I guess I could go through them for exchange...

I got my 1st one at Wal-Mart too, so I went back there yesterday to get a 2nd one to compare.
It seems to me that I'm not experiencing the lag as often on the 2nd one (I don't play any potentially resource-draining games, so I notice the lag more when I'm reading something and trying to scroll up or down).
I have started to wonder though if, in my case, maybe it's happening because I haven't installed a screen protector yet. I have one on my KFire and don't have the lag/sensitivity problem. So I figure I'll get one installed on my N7 soon and hopefully that'll cure this for me...

I noticed this the last 2-3 days. However, it seems to be only in Chrome browser. I never close my browser, and towards the end of the day, I'll unlock the tab, go into chrome, and I'll have to hit everything twice...keyboard included. I just completely close it out and start it back up, and it's fine again for another day. So it's not a problem for me.

Just had it again and while it was happening I went ahead and enabled the Dev option to show presses and it definitely requires a harder press to respond over time. I believe the digitizer is at fault on this.

Oh ASUS...

So my first transformer was awesome except for the touchscreen that was unresponsive on a whole line across the tablet, the minimal light bleed, and the unbalanced speakers. I decided to rma it with ASUS and sent it back.
I just got it back today. The shipping paper shows a new part for a screen (I'm guessing.. 90R-OK061L20000Y). I immediately installed a multi touch and paint app to check the screen only to find an almost identical unresponsive section of the screen (on both it was unresponsive to the lightest of touch only. Heavy touches still registered.)
My question to my fellow Transformer owners is should I RMA again? Maybe switch to the galaxy tab? Hope its software related and wait for a fix? Our just ignore it?
Anyone else have this problem?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
The Transformer is nice especially with dock if all works well, mine does, but if that were me I'd be unloading it and getting a Galaxy 10.1.
I just tested mine with the same paint program. I colored the whole screen with 1 finger and everything seems to be in order. Funny how that program registers 7 finger multitouch but 8 will cause a FC.
Anyway. I would RMA it again. This time stating that the problem wasn't fixed. Maybe put a bunch of post-it notes with arrows all pointing to the spot there it is whacked.

If this really is an issue only with "lightest of touch" I think you would be better off selling the unit. Touch screens often have areas that require more or less contact. The fact that they replaced the screen or digitizer and it does not meet your expectations suggests the settings they are using will not meet your expectations as to the amount of contact required.
Just a quick question, wherever you guys bought your transformer, did anyone buy a warranty through the retailer? Personally I work a BestBuy, so a 1 year with damage warranty was dirt cheap for me, so i bought it, normally I dont get the plans bc I treat my gadgets like angels, but with a 10 inch screen thats only protected by glass I thought I should, especially with all the defects from ASUS going around (although mines working perfect!).
Well as an example when trying to launch an app along the line a hard press is required

Could it be a problem with your fingers? Seems strange you have had problems with 2 lol
Are you saying my fingers is brokeded!?!
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
he's saying you touched it wrong
well I would insist on a replacement if the issue is still there. You would of thought they would of tested this before it was returned to you.
I would of thought it would be other hardware other than the screen that is defective and they have simply replaced the incorrect part.
I called asus again and they game another rma. They paid for doing too, that's nice. hoping for a fix though.

Yeah, I dont think an rma is going to fix this. Don't squeeze it so hard... fixed.
Mine does it as well, so not knockin ya but. It has yet to be an issue in actual real life use. Sure you can sit there and pinch the thing, but just stop, and you'll never notice it again.
I am very OCD about my devices. Honestly, as long as I know that nothing is wrong with it in that category, I will be fine
I noticed the ripple on two of the three N7's I tried. While I think it probably SHOULDN'T be happening (i.e., it represents an underlying design and/or manufacturing flaw), I don't think it will cause any issues. Like the screen lift, it's one of those things where it's technically a defect, but it's not likely to cause any performance or other issues.
If I hadn't had other problems with mine, I'd have put the best N7 in a case and forgotten all about those two issues.
What were your other problems
My first one had pretty good screen seperation all along the left side, and pretty bad lightbleed from the left side.
My new one has barely any lift (just a 1 inch section, about a third the way up on the left side), but has the lcd ripple.
The screen seperation isn't even noticeable unless you lay it flat and look across the glass and this one feels solid, the first one was spongy.
I can handle the ripple, because it only happens when im messing with it, trying to make it happen.

Tried it on mine. I am kind of shocked at how hard it had to press to get it to ripple. I am hoping get that the op has a worse case than I do because if not this is crazy. I would never pinch that hard I every day use.

unresponsive screen when warm ?

hey guys, does anyone have issues with the screen becoming unresponsive when warm ? I first noticed after leaving the unit on charge in the sunlight, screen up. basically the screen needs more than a touch, sometimes it doesn't respond without a firm hand. after playing with a few different kernels this is definately an issue for me. even on stock if i play a game for long enough, heat will lead to the screen becoming unresponsive ??? stock rom and kernel is where I'm at right now and the issue is still present ? any thoughts guys ?

I have the problem where the screen will become less responsive after using it for a while, but not completely unresponsive. It's hard to notice at times, I have "show touches" enabled to help me see it. Cycling the screen off then back on fixes it. I've been hoping that someone would be able to definitively say if it's an individual hardware defect or a software bug. Seems like a lot of people have this issue.
It's especially annoying when playing a touch game that requires fast, accurate inputs.

Are we 100% sure it's hardware? I find it odd locking/unlocking really quick would remedy a hardware issue.
I'm thinking the problem may be more widespread than it seems. It's easy to not notice it. I only noticed when I had problems controlling a few precision input, fast-paced games.
Lets us know if your third one does it as well.

Yet Another Touchscreen Responsiveness Thread

I know there have been a few (perhaps this is an understatement) threads about the touchscreen wonkiness some users are experiencing, but I'd like a consolidated bit of advice.
My touchscreen is weird. Sometimes everything seems perfectly normal, but I've noticed a few examples of it being weird:
When trying to put an app shortcut on the homescreen (long pressing) it often doesn't work; it seems to think I am moving my finger when I'm not
When in drawing apps, if I try to draw fine lines, sometimes it registered random points and lines on other parts of the screen
Using a multitouch test app, it periodically will register a third touch when only using two fingers
The keyboard double taps letters almost every single time I type
So my questions are:
Do you think this is a software issue? If so, how do you explain some people not having the problem.
Do you think my best bet is to exchange it? I have no issues other than the touchscreen (no light bleed, etc.) and I'm a little scared I'll get a worse unit.
What are your experiences with these issues?
Thanks for reading!
I had a perfect 16gb that I returned in order to get a 32gb. The 32gb had the horrible touch screen issues. Using YAMTT app, it would register multiple touches long after I was no longer touching the device. I returned it to Best Buy and got a new 32gb and it doesn't have the issues. At first I thought it was the JSS update, so I didn't accept for a few days. Went ahead and updated and still have no issues on my new device.
This has already been documented, the primary thread for this is over in the Q&A section AFAIK currently. Which is here:

I am basically having the same issue. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2395289
A reboot seems to help mine. Mine does not seem as bad as some peoples. I am trying to decide if I need to exchange it or not. It sounds like it might be software more than a faulty one off hardware.
Mine seems completely fine outside of the occasional freak bug with finger-sliding on my keyboard pressing like 80 keys. Fixes itself if I lift my finger up.
I have a 32 GB.
Don't know where it is at the moment, but there is a thread over on the Google Products forums regarding this. Google knows of the issue, and as of a few days ago, they are looking into a fix. I think it's software. People say that the second upgrade you do ruins it and makes the touch less responsive. So, I think it will be fixed with a new update. Just give it some time. I'm trying not to think about it. Don't wanna ruin it for me. Hehe. Hang in there. If it REALLY bothers you, exchange it for another one. Obviously, you run the risk of not getting rid of the problem. Who knows.

I had this problem at first. I think it is just a heck of a lot more sensitive, interpreting varying pressure of my finger as movement as the "footprint" changes. After I got used to how lightly I should press compared to the previous Nexus, the problems went away.

Mine is working fine but i noticed when placing my hand on it when i use YAMTT, it will register 3-6 point and starts flipping. When i pull my hand away these points keep on flipping for some seconds. It is over responsive compared to my S2 which registers Zer0 points when i put my hand on it (the way it should be). This was happening with JSS15Q as well as JSS15R now.

Flashing one of sfhub's custom touchscreen fixes helps for most of the issues. I use ts20 and it works 98%. 2% of the time it just locks up/stops taking input for a second or two. I've only really noticed it when playing games (terraria).
ts10 worked well but would occasionally freak out with a bunch of inputs.
None of this would be noticeable outside of game playing.
Sfhubs fixes are pretty great. At least get it usable until Google figures it out.
I was hoping 15R update would have fixed this but still waiting.

Nexus 7 Erratic Touchscreen - Android 4.4

Anyone had issues with random touches still after 4.4 update? I never had them on 4.3 but have had it twice now where the device does random things until I am forced to hold the power button to switch it off as the menu that comes up when you hold the power button can't be used because the touchscreen touches outside the box.

I'm also experiencing it.Randomly though.It doesn't appear when I type.It's frequent when I play Injustice,I can notice that my actions are not detected and when I try to power it off,I get stuck with the power off menu,same as you mentioned.My homescreen bobs between adjacent panes sometimes.

Same issue here. Sometimes a touch is not registered unless you hold it for a second.
Rebooting fixes it ... But I was wondering if someone is getting on the bottom of this?
Exact same issue here, I have to keep rebooting by long pressing power button to fix it temporarily. So damn annoying.

Plug your tablet via USB to either your computer or an outlet and do some typing. Does the problem go away? I saw someone mention on the forum a while ago about a possible grounding issue, something to do with hardware. Mine does go away. I have zero issues typing when my tablet is plugged in.
Same issue. I guess it is related to kit kat. I am running omnirom, and the reason I flashed it was because my nexus 7 starting spazzing out on me. I thought flashing a rom would fix it, but it did not. What I do it enable show touches in developer options to see where the screen is touching. Then I swipe the entire screen row after row especially the point(s) where it detects the touches that you did not make. Just touch every area of the screen, and it went away, for a little bit at least.
Mine touch problem worsened after kitkat. Not recognising touch At all while lying on the table, to ghost touches to, missing touch it's having all. Though I still love my nexus but it has made the experience bitter sweet

Happens on my Nexus 7 2013 with stock 4.3.
I tested my screen when I first got it with no problems, after updating to 4.4.2. There was one time where it wouldn't register any taps, but problem was fixed after reboot.
My Nexus is still wrapped in its original plastic cover. I have used it very little, and have not noticed any screen mis-clicks or whatever. Are there any guaranteed steps to reproduce the problem ?

Mine actually improved drastically with kit Kat. I now get nearly flawless touchscreen response. The one or two times it has happened since, simply locking and unlocking the device resolves the issue.

Have downloaded a multutouch application and have tried it until I got bored. It seems that it detected correctly where my fingertips where, one, two or three at the same time and moving all the time.
I had it disconnected from the USB and laying on the couch, seemed to work OK.
Maybe it is the plastic wrapper making it all work OK?
I had zero touch issues when I first got mine (did 10mins of multi-touch testing with app), after the recent 4.4.2 update, I was getting erratic/missed touches. Multi-touch app confirmed the same, 8 fingers on the screen, it jumped from 8 all the way down to 2 touch readings. A little digging around and I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428133
I tried it out and fixed my touch issues. Give it a try.
I reconnected the touchscreen connector, after that most touch issues were gone except for a rare occasion when I still get ghost touches. Tap sensitivity (typing) is so much better now, it used to be nearly impossible

I went thru 3 of them all had the same issue with the touchscreen not being properly responsive and it corrected when the USB cable was connected (tried all 3 with JB and KK saw no change). Its obvious there are grounding issues with this product and It looks like Nexus doesn't really care; which is really disappointing since my first gen has performed flawlessly. Looks like I'll keep the original and start looking into some other brands.
