say i go to Start > Programs and then i finger-flick to scroll down... the scrolling speed and scrolling duration are just out of whack. i flick and then wait like 5 seconds till it stops and even one normal flick is enough to go from first to the last icon on the page. if i want to scroll smaller distance, i intuitively do a slower flick but then biotouch ignores that gesture and next thing i know is i'm randomly opening programs.
i used to have htc-titan/ppc6800 with installed version of biotouch, and finger-flicking scrolled at the same speed but for much shorter time, like 1 to 2 seconds, which was much more desireable. the sensitivity also was more fine-tuned that even slower flicks were interpreted as scrolling gestures... the whole biotouch experience was much more snapper and was actually usable. now with touch pro i find myself preferring to use scrollbars to even scroll small distances...
i've tried quite a few customization tools including Advanced Config and none of them allowed me to fine-tune the scrolling duration and finger-flick speed sensitivity. does anybody know where these settings, and hopefully other settings, are located for biotouch? i just want to fine-tune them to be more "usable"...
Thanks!
half a day passed and the thread is already on the 5th page... dang things here evolve quickly!
so, anybody knows how to or where to tweak biotouch config?

I am having an issue whereby my touch screen is overly sensitive. For instance, when using the calculator, I "push" a button and it rapidly enters the number I pressed three times. Or, I'm adding a city to the weather tab and push United States and the next thing I know, it's added Abilene, TX (the first city on the list). Another example is I tap the programs tab icon (it's tab #5 on my Fuze) and end up with it trying to decide if I've pushed music or photos (tabs 7 & 8 that end up near the same position the programs tab was in before I tapped it).
It is not consistent but happens with enough frequency that I thought I had over tweaked the settings somehow. I went into Diamond Tweak and set the TF3D sensitivity and finger pressure settings back to normal. It's still doing it. I checked Advanced Config and it's showing a pressure threshold of 18866, finger pressure of 2908, high scroll speed of 0 and low scroll speed of 14. These all show they are custom settings but I don't recall changing them. TF3D Config has TouchFLO performance 2 enabled but none of the others.
After restarting (I changed something in TF3D config), advanced config is now showing pressure threshold of 34, finger pressure of 2908, high scroll speed of 25 (default) and low scroll speed of 14.
Am I correct that it's overtweaked? What should those settings be in Anvanced config? Has anyone else experienced this? Do I need to consider exchanging my Fuze?
Thanks,
Joe
I can't tell you what the setting should be, but I would def. try a hard reset before returning the device. If that doesn't work its probably hardware.
I have a high Scroll Speed of 25 (which is default)... low scroll speed of 70 (also Default) and my pressure threshold and finger pressure are set Extreemly high.... dunno if that will help but i dont have any screen problems
i can't seem to nail down my terminology so forgive me .
I want to increase the amount of vertical/horizontal movement when I flick up and down in Opera, messages and documents.
What is this called and can i adjust it somewhere or with advanced conifg?
For example on an iphone if you flick fast it pretty much goes all the way through a webpage, it uses the speed of the flick to determine distance.
Seems like the fuze is tied directly to the flick and doesnt have "acceleration".
Thanks for any help or redirection.
i think there's a configuration in advance config or diamond tweak / touch pro tweak, but i myself don't find this a problem, you just have to flick it fast and a little harder, flick it from the bottom of the screen till the top.
as for messages, you can always use the keyboard and type in the name of the sender, and it will display all their messages only, this saves a lot of time trying to flick and search through your list of messages if you have e.g. 10000 txts.
I really love Tasker; use it for a lot of things. The more I use it, however, the more I grow impatient with its speed. Is there a way to speed up tasks? Even the simplest things seem slow.
For example, I have a shortcut on my desktop to run a Tasker Menu. That menu has three choices, each of which is an execution task to tweak phone settings. When I click it, it will take anywhere from 1 - 4 seconds for the menu to appear on screen, even though anything else on my homescreen loads instantly on click. Then, when I select the task I want from that menu, I can watch the settings on the phone change one by one... brightness, gps, wifi, etc.
I've been using Tasker on my Inc for months now, through many different Roms and kernels, and it consistently performs this way. I'm hoping there's some tips I don't know of to make it more efficient.
Hi all,
I notice that when sliding through the app drawer of TW3, the finger tends to move some distance before the page starts following the finger. This is especially obvious when then page is stationary and the finger has to move some distance before the app drawer page stutters and starts moving.
After reading most if not all of the discussions in this forum, I understand that our phone sustain certain level of lag in that situation, probably due to the touch mechanism itself or inefficiency in the processor or what not. But I do have an interesting observation: whenever my phone sustains a fresh reboot, it is that time that the app drawer is perfectly lagless and follows even the tiniest movement of my fingers. This snappy phenomena only lasts until I put the phone to standby, i.e. locking the phone. Thereafter it goes back to the condition as mentioned earlier on.
My question is, there's no doubt i9003 has the capability to be lag free in the context of this discussion, but it seems pretty apparent that something is inhibiting the phone from being as smooth as when it first rebooted. Could it be the priority the TW launcher is assigned with, or does the processor clock speed matter in this situation?
P.S. When testing, I made sure that no applications are opened after the fresh reboot, so issues like insufficient memory etc should not be related here.
I noticed the same things, not only when sliding through the app drawer, but also when sliding menus etc. However after a reboot, my phone behaves as always. Maybe you feel it more lagfree because of the high clock speed due to the multiples stuff your phone does on boot. Try to change your governor to performance and see if it behaves like after a fresh reboot. In this way you'll know if your lagfree experience is due to clock speed.
I read a lot of stuff too but nothing was really useful. However I noticed that I feel lags only when the touch of the screen can be interpretated in different ways (for example sliding screens and opening apps), but when touching the screen allows you to do only one thing, like moving things, there are nearly zero lags. For example when you pull down/up your notification bar or when you move a zooomed image in gallery. This make me think that it's more a software problem than a hardware problem and I think that because in some app there are less lags than in others.
I don't know if you read this, but I think it improves the touchscreen, even if the difference is barely noticeable.
TW3 is sludge!
Is there a way to quickly change playback speed with a mouse and a keyboard? I couldn't find any keyboard shortcuts to increase or decrease playback speed. The only ways seems to be with the quick shortcuts put that involves tons of clicks or manually typing the percentage which is really annoying, in the phone, I can go from 100% to 200% in less than a second by sliding two fingers but I can't simulate 2 fingers with a BT mouse
rationale of why I wanna do this is I listen to videos usually at 200% but there are some words or small sentences that are not well pronounced or easily understood so I have to rewing 5 seconds, quickly change to about 80% speed, get what they just said, then quickly change back to 200% speed, this can happen as often as once or twice per minute
