[Touch Screen] Does it support nails & knuckles? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi people,
I just wanted to know if the Nexus 4 touch screen support fingernails (like i.e. Galaxy S3).
Anyone with a Nexus 4 could try this for me?
Best Regards,
Sebastian.

lol yes it does. Even my s1 does

Just tried using the backside of my nail on my OG Evo... worked fine. The tip of my nail also works but i suspect the tip of my finger is also barely touching the screen so I angled my finger more extremely so it was only the nail. Still works both ways. That will be disappointing if the N4 touchscreen can't do this...

I'm guessing you don't have an N4 yet, because it absolutely will not register touch via your nails.

also supports knees and elbows

I can confirm that nose, ear (upper and lobe) and toes all work.
Also penis

Well i usually use nails when my fingers are sweaty, dirty or whatever.
At least to fast unlock and make a call. (Quick actions).
I think it won't be a problem...resigning to this feature when i am to have a nexus 4.

I think he was talking about this LOL

SGS2 Screen Friction

Greetings SGS2 owners,
I'd like to know your opinions on the SGS2 touchscreen surface.
Sometimes it's an unpleasant experience to swype texts because my finger gets stuck to the screen.
But some other time, the screen surface is silky smooth. Not sure why is this happening.
And the other day, a friend told me that my SGS2 has more screen friction compared to an iphone. Anybody can verify if this is true?
Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks.
Your fingers have grease on them naturally, it makes them slick. However if you clean your screen or wash ur hands it will stick

Thank God I don't have sweaty hands ...
It dosn't matter if I use a screen protector or not ... when my finger gets moisty/wet I can't use Swype LOL
On most other surfaces water would make it more slippery ... strange
Thank God I don't have sweaty hands ...
Yes, all boils down to the dust or grease accumulated on the screen and on your hands Nothing else ...
There's a software update to make the screen smoother.

lol I forget this is a software development forum.
I'm thinking more on homemade fix.
Have anyone tried something like talcum powder or any other lubricant (gasp!) with good effect and no adverse results to the screen?

Use a cameraman trick, hold a piece of tissue over it.
Tear a small piece of tissue wet a corner and temporarily stick it so it screens the LED, I haven't tried it but it should work

Stop taking pictures in low light. Problem solved.
The sensors in the phones are not big enough.

Well, here we go.
To reduce the brightness of the flash you must quicken the shutter speed. Where is that on our phones?

Found something funny!!

If you get a grape and use it as a 'stylus' it actually works, and better, its really accurate too. Thought I should just post this as I found it quite funny

I can see you eating some grapes while using the tablet... then one falls from your hand and bounces against the TF screen... and then you witness some incredibly accurate touch events
Thanks for the tip
Gett a bag of chips and rip the bag and wrap the ripped part around a pen and use a rubber band or tape to wrape it around. Works just like a stylus. No joke. I saw it on life hacks part 1. Lok

Anything that can conduct electricity and is touching your skin will work
Grape is best idea yet
I have a mechanical pencil that some of the internal broke but the exterior is metal. I took one of the yellow kitchen sponges with the green scrubby part on them and stuffed it inside the pencil with a little hanging out the tip. Works great!

Accurate, cheap, it also doesn't scratch the screen and doesn't leave finger marks! Perfect stylus in my opinion!

Knife used as a stylus on S3

hey guysss here's a video in which a knife is used as a stylus and also used for playing games
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98BYhwR5Y60
Lol It is one of the most useless and idiot things i've ever seen! Very funny though! Ahah The intresting thing is the back button, because, even with the original stylus, it doesn't work! So, why spending a lot of money for a stylus? A knife does exactly the same

please note this also works with machetes, crowbars and an axe, although the latter has to be used with caution due to its weight.

That's a naughty Nexus 7 you got there. I hope it's fixed now. If not try deleting all the porno from your device. That should stop it from touching itself.
You are all wrong! You should sit down with your n7 and explain its perfectly natural to be curious....and if it wants to touch itself....to only do it in private and don't feel ashamed. Every tab does it!!!

I would spank my n7 if he'd touch himself. That's not how a gentleman behaves.
DO you guys think is a motherboard issue o a display problem? the reason im asking is because im from costa rica and i have no way to get the warranty from asus :S
