[FIX] SGS Touchscreen Booster - No more missing taps or touchscreen response delay

*If at all possible please donate to the person that created the application, you can pay via PayPal within the app*
No root required. I was able to install app from the Playstore, disregard that it mentions a Samsung phone. This website pretty much advises what settings to use and all.
Works in the meanwhile until an official fix is released for all of us G4 owners. Night and day difference.
You don't have to use the specific settings in the website, I've found some values myself that have worked well but it's a good starting point.
1.) Enable parameters
2.) Don't forget within the app to 'start service on boot'
3.) Reboot phone and enjoy a better phone experience

I tried it and saw no difference. Even tried extreme settings, just to see what was altered. Not a bit of difference.

After setting the parameters and checking the enable on boot you must restart the phone.
If you still see no difference I would look into exchanging the unit

I'll try again...

I tried all kinds of configurations, I notice no improvement.

I tried this app before and found no difference either. What did seem to help though (at least in my experience) was I just opted to do a full system reset, since then I have had no lag or missed touches or anything negative with my device.

I saw the title seen than seen there was no thanks to the OP... I won't even bother trying

This app actually made a big difference for me. Thank you OP. I'd been thinking of a factory reset as I've seen a few people mention that clearing the issue but I'm good for now.
As you said, night and day difference.

How did you go about backing up app data (if you did). I'm kinda lost without Titanium Backup in my toolbox
Sent from my VS986 using xda premium

It might not work for everyone, unfortunately there are many that see threads like this and never post that it works.
I've done so myself once or twice in the past.
Can say for a fact that it's helped another user above and that's why I post in the 1st place.
All I can say about that is that some units may be too messed up to even fix, for them I would recommend swapping out for another device before the 14 day return is up. I noticed a huge difference in screen response taps and swipes.
I'll post my specific settings once I turn on my device, I installed my Skinomi Tech Glass today and want it to settle before I use it again.
.: Sent from an optimized 'ANDROID til I die' device :.

I'll be interested to see what settings you find to be optimal. I didn't change anything. I just started the app, set to start on boot, restarted my phone and the response is phenomenal.
I'm willing to tweak some but I'm liking it as is.

As far as backing up my app date, with US Cellular I have a stock bloat-app that allows me to back up stuff.
Only thing I may suggest for you is to get one of the Non-Root App2SD apps, install all your apps to the SD card and then reset the phone without having to touch your apps.

I tried this when it was first suggested by someone and didn't really notice any difference.

I was using it on 10a firmware and did notice an improvement.
Since updating to 10c, I don't use this app anymore, as I do not have any issues with missed taps.

I have heard others say this as well, I do not want to update though as I do not know what all is hidden within the update, and I do not want to risk blocking any exploits or anything like that.

I'm already rooted & unlocked as I have h815 GB version.
I flashed 10c from autoprime and runs nice.
Not sure if updating from lg will block any exploits?
Might be worth asking one of the devs??

This app has not been updated since 2012. Not sure if it works either, saw no difference with or without it. Placebo maybe?

Tmobile variant

Just got my priv today. Have had it for about three hours. Like it so far. Always have been a BlackBerry fanboy. But since android, I made the switch and never looked back. This device seems to be the perfect mix. So far so good!

T-mobile variant - You already got T-Mobile's version of PRIV?

Yeah, walked in to the store and sales rep says "We just got 2 delivered a few mins ago. But they don't go on sale until tomorrow, eh what the heck. You want one now?"

I called T-Mobile couple of days ago and tech told me that "theoretically" unlocked PRIV on T-Mobile's network may also get AAD442 update that you got. I am currently on AAD250 with January security patch. Hope that this updates will also be available for factory unlocked PRIV devices because T-Mobile fixed couple of issue contained here: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-24554

I'm thinking of getting one today I'm a little worried about some of the negative reviews I've read. Currently have a 6 edge plus but want something different I'm tired of samsung

I've had almost every device out there except the new LG. As you know, devices are all based on personal preference. You need to determine what your highest priority is and then go from there. My top priority is battery strength. I am on the road in and out of meetings, so it is hard for me to charge during the day. I still haven't found a great great device in that regard. My next priority is the camera to take pictures of my kids. So far, the BlackBerry in the almost 24 hours that I've had it, has been great in both respects. My last device, the Nexus 6P, camera was not very impressive. Although, with marshmallow, the battery on the 6P is really good. But the Priv has lived up to all of the hype thus far. Feel free to ask any questions or a comparison of any device, as I mentioned I have had most all of the flagship devices.

Pick one up at t-mobile today as well. Miss having a fingerprint reader. The pkb is better then I expected according to reviews. I know battery life will get better.

After wanting to check one out for a while I was able to play with one at a t-mobile store. I ended up buying one, there said they only had 2 in stock so I said what the hell. I am impressed by the build quality and am getting used to a physical keyboard again. I need to dig deeper into the blackberry specific features to really get the most of it but my initial impression is positive.

PKB - Physical keyboard

I picked up a Private from TMo yesterday as well. I'm impressed so far, I really missed the physical keyboard from my old BlackBerry days. Only complaint so far is the bloat ware.

I just ordered one B&H I figured the unlocked should be the same as the tmobile variant and this was I saved a ton in taxes. I have the S6 edge now but have been with Samsung since the nexus. But I missed the good old blackberry keyboard. I tried in an att store b/c no one else had one on display. I did think the old bb keyboards were better. Can't wait till tomorrow.
Sent from my SM-G925T using Tapatalk

With no root in sight, I went in and just disabled all the TMo apps. There are 4 I believe. Really boosted my battery life. I went from about 5-6 hours to 11-12 hours, both with moderate use. So if your having battery issues, give it a try. Oh and my phone no longer gets hot either.
Sent from my STV100-1 using XDA Premium HD app

Disabling all the bloatware was the first thing I did because I noticed a major drain with the Tmobile app.
As for having a fingerprint scanner for that quick unlock of the device... I haven't really missed it since I have an android wear watch. Smart lock has easily been my favorite feature of lollipop and on... so easy to stay mostly secure and be able to quickly unlock my device all throughout the day. I would highly suggest one for this reason!

5-12-2016 Software update?

Just got a notification for a software update, doesn't say what its for... Anybody know before I take the plunge???

You'll have to check with AT&T. I already updated, still 6.0.1. AT&T usually posts more specifics on their website. I'm trying to find it now, I'll post the link if I do.

I just got the notification right now too

All I can see was the May Security updates.
Almost 2 weeks late, but super early for AT&T !
I hope they keep it up.

Just completed the update. I can't tell what has changed besides the baseband and kernel versions and security patch level.

To update or not is the question, I hope battery life won't get worse lol

Not sure exactly what the update includes aside from security patches, but ever since I updated, my phone is rebooting every 5-10 minutes.
On another board, someone mentioned that it included activation of the FM radio, but I cannot confirm that.

You are correct i chack radio on mine by using Next Radio from play store, i turn off wifi and mobile data and get over air radio working.

I've had next radio installed on mine since the beginning. I haven't taken any updates and still able to use next radio.

Cool on the update, I figure unless there's some functionality broken out of the box, no need to take it until someone can tell us what it is.

I'm getting constant nag notifications for this. I turned off notifications for updates and it just sits in the notification drawer.
Anyone know how to permanently not take updates so I'm not bothered?

WELCOME TO VERIZON,talk about a double-edged sword:
Great coverage & network (YMMV of course),but,man the rest of their practices,not to mentionusing the bastard CDMA technology,is more than anyone should have to tolerate,especially when no real viable options are available.
Can you not disable VZW's bloatware (VZW apps)?
At minimum,I'd disable DT Ignite,not sure if that will help in the nagging,but,it's one less crapware app needlessly running on your phone..............

I came from a Note 4 and then S7E to the V20. AMOLED has such a tremendous saturation of colors that no LCD will ever be able to compete on that front. But, the brightness level and clarity is about the same. But it has taken me a few days to get back to accepting this as the new norm. Everytime I load CoC I think something is wrong until I remember I'm on a new device.

I took the update. I think it got rid of app pinning in recents.

The IMEI is a unique identifier for your phone,no two phones will have the same IMEI,regardless of carrier &/or model:

If you're asking how to find your IMEI,look in SETTINGS > ABOUT PHONE > STATUS

Done. Also reset settings, network settings, access. settings. No luck yet. Still random reboots every couple minutes. S10+ is the worst Samsung phone ever at launch. S9 wasn't perfect at launch, with some battery issues; but S10 is both unstable and has battery issues.
H/W is great, but no doubt this phone wasn't ready for launch.

early adopters get ****ed the hardest, that's not news.
hell knowing my luck motorola will make the razr v4 foldable a flagship model too, now that for once i finally came over to the darkside to find out just how bad samsung is, just to spite me, i was so dead set on it when i found out clamshells were finally coming back, i had the original a1200 and loved the hell out of it back in the day, had it rooted, custom firmware, was impossible to dial 911 or view ads on it, that's the way android should be still, but i digress, i only ever buy flagship phones, i wanna be able to coast for the next 5 years on my overpayment for electronic devices, plus stop making phones thinner, they're uncomfortable to hold at this point already in landscape.
of course if that does happen i'm totally coming up with the money and who knows, either i'll have two lines or i'll sell one and not tell the carrier, god the concept renders were sexy too, plus i won't lie, i love the snap sound when you hang up on someone when using a clamshell, so long as the razr v4 is flagship specs and can be opened one handed we're golden.

Well that's strange, never had any issues with reboots or battery issues after the update on mine. Tried to flash back your stock firmware and start fresh again? That should really fix it.

I've taken the phone off the charger and it seems to have stopped randomly rebooting for now. Strange. I'll still facreset it when I'm more free.

My phone (exynos) running well and normal

I downloaded my update off of samsung firmware haven't had a problems just wondering if I should just factory reset to be safe.

I've had Note 5, S7, S8 and Note 9 at launch. All were way more stable than the S10+.

I flashed it via Odin, before it was released on OTA and have not experienced anything like that. I did have a reboot but programmed every 3 days for optimisation.

The only thing I noticed was the IG mode on the camera is gone now? Mines been running great so far otherwise.
