Touchscreen sensitivity - Galaxy S I9000 General

Does anyone have a flashable package that increases the sensitivity of the touchscreen?
Or would anyone be able to give me a quick rundown on how to adjust it?
I know there were a few values floating around a while back.
Thx in advance.

There is an app in the market, something like galaxy $ screen tuner, tho I can't remember its exact name

Nice one, was after something to do this as well, thanks.

Does it actually work in improving the screen though?

Thanks. Downloaded and am using it now. Dunno do I see much difference though. Using "optimized" and super optimized .
Anyone recommend settings with this app. ??
My main gripe with the screen is its not sensitive enough when texting fast.

I've been using gingerbread keyboard and smart keyboard pro and both react the same to my texting. I don't use swype.

I use since day one I got the SGS in june and can't operate the phone without. Superfine is good for me, but you can fiddle a bit to find settings that suit you. Too bad that pernament fix ain't possible yet.

Ahh ....yes....I'm using that now but I reduced the value on the top two settings and it's made a huge difference.

FYI: Damian's kernels have an option to adjust screen sensitivity and once set it holds using his kernel control app

Damians kernels are a thing of the past....but thanks anyway !

sorry to drag this thread up again, but does anyone know how to change the sensitivity in gingerbread?
i'm using JVR and the touchscreen booster app does not work. I can remember it did work when I used it on froyo.

There's a touchscreen fix in the development section. Install the apk there and follow the instructions.
Ok thank u will download now, by the way, does upgrading the firmware get rid of this issue or is it handset related?

In fact it's a feature for better differentiate simple clicks from scrollings, so Samsung will probably have it in all his firmwares, and you'll have to install the fix on every wipe(it isn't permanent).
Well ive tried it and it still feels the same, quite juttery on homescreens??
App drawer and menu is fine its just a prob with the homescreen being juttery.

Try setting it to 5 instead of 0. See if that makes a difference

Galaxy SIII swipe lock feature?

Hi, I was wondering if there was an app or something that enabled the screen to lock after sliding over the phone sensor? I noticed it on other phones. Thanks!
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
You mean something like this?:

Sounds great should check out
P.S. It seems like the screen doesn't get locked if the screen is turned of from this app I mean it wont lock even the screen time out period passes.

If u continue searching for these proximity apps u will get many cool apps...u may get one that changes songs with proximity or if u want to turn on your screen with proximity then install smart screen on but it is useless and draws too much battery.
Just for information purpose I post this here.if u have any problem then tell me.I will remove this post.
Remember its not legal to download and use pirated apps.u must support the original developer by buying his app. Do not apply this method unless u are in danger to lose your life .
OK so here it is...
1.Google blackmart and download the appk.
2.install it.
3.u will get the paid apps free here.best pirated appstore after applanet)

Touchscreen sensitivity app

Hi guys,
I've just search how to increase touchscreen sensitivity and found this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...Nob3A0YXBwcy50b3VjaHNjcmVlbmJvb3N0ZXIuY29tIl0.
Even this is for sgs it works on our device tested by me just put the sensitivy of app for max!
Now the touch screen is more responsive.
Good app

What problem?¨Just put the sensitivity max. in the app.
Works for me on ics and I need that because on ics the sensitivity is too bad
And also tap apply changes and start service on boot.

Yeah I know that but It's kind of calibrate.
On ics normally I need tap every icons more than two times when it recognize my touch,with this app only one tap is enough.

On gingerbread touch is better?? Or I'm wrong?
When I used gingerbread touch is ok and no need tap many times for options.

yes touch is (more or less) good on gingerbread. but this app seems to change nothing in any way.
The sensitivity did improved, perhaps the changes are not gradual to be distinguished ..if we there's an app that can measure screen sensitivity level then we'll see

i think Z-Device test can do that, i recall one time i used an app for moving density (it was 140 default or 160 and i moved up to 200dpi) and the screen had bigger resolution but things wouldn't fit in the screen...180 i think is the best for our gt540
Ya I tried it too, but on didn't notice any change

Groundbreaking app SwiftKey flow beta

Test out the new SwiftKey flow beta with flow through space feature and with its powerful prediction along with swype feature, it is now beast of a keyboard.
Try it right here at :- http://www.swiftkey.net/flow/

Yup it is... It just puts every other keyboard out of the competition..
At last!!
I have been checking my mail daily to try this app since a month when i saw someone post the link here. And it arrives yesterday. Now trying it out!! I had been a huge fan of Swype for its ease and swiftkey(not that much) but loved its prediction. Can't think what the combo will be like!!!
Installing it now
It is a great app but takes quite some time to get output on the screen. For example, I finish typing the sentence before it finishes displaying on the screen. But the themes and all is amazing! Thanks for sharing.

Ohh! So this problem exists with all. I thought the RAM is too high around 50MB only for this and maybe there was not enough of RAM to cause this problem. Any ways it is still beta version. Hope they improve it.

yes its still in beta and one should also consider that our device is getting too old with 2gb RAM coming in trend..
Have it up. Great potential here. I cannot really say Swype is so much quicker but since this baby does groups of words, the delay multiplies and that becomes a problem. Swype's "keys" are larger, easier to use (same problem with TouchPal!) and it show more suggestions (could be a plus or a minus). Wonder if Paranoid options can improve the layouts. Problem with c/r vs smiley--filed as a bug.
Hats off to the devs at Swiftkey. Google took, possibly the same code, and tied it down to ARMv7. Disgusting. Swiftkey flow runs on our old clunkers just fine!
Nice keyboard but it takes up like 2/3 of our screen.

Key heights can be adjusted. Swype's sizes and layout, to me, is much easier to use.
May also experiment with Paranoid for modifying sizes.
How do you do that? Didn't see any settings.

Menu is over the ',' (comma). Setting from there.
I used this keyboard for a while but had to go back to Swype...not the new Swype but the ICS one.. version 3.26 i think...that was the best...the main problem with this keyboard is that there are no suggestions...just predictions..for example..if i swype "if" and it comes up as "of" you must delete the word because there is no suggestion...it just suggests the next word it thinks you want to insert....and you have to be very accurate...while on swype..if you do the same thing and it comes up as something else...suggestions will be like "if" "off" "for" etc...so many suggestions...and you can choose in swype between prediction and suggestion...so yeah not such a good experience with this keyboard...and the Flow through space method still needs a lot of work as it is far from accurate....but no doubt that it looks so much better and takes up only 8 mb of space i think...if they had the suggestion thing i'd be overjoyed..till then...enjoy it everyone
Yasss I love this with the Pumpkin theme. I can't wait until this gets a stable release.

Jus run through the settings one by one and deselect anything that sounds like it might waste battery. Qslide, knock on, all nice touches but both waste that extra bit of juice and I can do without.
Enjoy
Ok thanks also what screen brightness do you have yours on?

A he never asked that. He asked what brightness do YOU have it on. You do know people do this all the time. Just look into monitors at Hard forums. People love to know all the settings people use. People will say they get the best battery life with.. and then post.
Ok so I have it set up using nova Launcher just like on my note 3 I'm loving the tablet so far only this that's annoying me is the bar with the touch buttons at the end, as in when I'm using apps I don't get the full screen I guess it's something I will just have to get used to.

or just root and use one of the many apps. If you install the G2 xposed framwork you can make it really small. or if you install UDN Lite you can select auto hide
Do I have to root to use one of those apps?
