Hello,
I have just bought my first android phone, Samsung core 2.
The problem is, it works very smooth, but there is very noticeable input lag on touchscreen. During surfing internet or playing a game, when I touch screen there is 0.3-0.5 seconds until it is registered. That delay is very annoying when texting and gaming. I have tried out my friend's Core 2 and he does not have this problem. Many other phones that are lot worse than it have almost instant touchscreen response, yet my phone sucks when it comes to that.
I bought it only like 3 days ago and they won't return my money or replace the phone. Only thing they offered is "we can "do" software on your phone" (I do not know what they meant by that). So I'm stuck with this phone which otherwise works nice but has this horrible touchscreen input lag.
Are there any things which can help me to make touchscreen response faster? Like flashing custom ROM on it or something? Did anyone else have similar problem with it?

Hi,
In your settings menu find Magnification gestures which is triple tap to zoom. Turn it off and then your input, touchscreen and numberpad dialing will be very smooth.
Thanks,

If u state what version of OS are U using and model and if it's stock launcher with purely ported touchwiz for our phones, try flash/upgrade or use the custom roms if available.

Not totally sure how to describe this, but my Optimus 3D seems to be registering a single tap on the on-screen keyboard as multiple presses, usually 2-3. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is it more of an android issue rather than with the phone? Or could it possibly be resolved through the installation of an alternative keyboard from the market?
The issue seems to occur both when charging and when running on battery power, and occurs in all applications I've tried it in so far. (Browser, Market, YouTube, Messaging)
I'm just concerned there could be an issue with the screen, so I'd like to try and get it sorted sooner rather than later, since once you go past a week or two getting a faulty phone handset sorted becomes a nightmare with retailers.

The screen of the phone is very very sensitive. What happens is that you touch the letter and then before you have the time to remove it the phone registers a continuing press. This happens because even if you dont tap with the same presure, the phone still picks up a presure and registers more taps. It isn't really something you should worry about.
Ahhh I see. Is there a way to reduce the sensitivity at all? It's a rather annoying bug and makes it next to impossible to type anything longer than just a few words using the on-screen keyboard.

I would recommend you to compare your phone with another O3D if you can. If some other O3D's work nice for you, then probably it is a harware defect.
I have never experienced such a problem on mine.
Hm, I don't know anybody else with one, however the store I bought it from did have a demonstration unit so I can pop in and try out theirs to see if it also has the same issue. If not at least I can demonstrate the problem to them.

Sounds like a plan to me
I had the same problem as the OP.
It was not from the beginning and started totally unexpected and there was a very noticeable difference before/after. Typing became almost impossible, had to do it veeery carefully.
However, a simple reboot solved my problem. Didn't happen to me again since...
Hi, totally new to Android after being with Apple a long time but loving my O3D except battery life but i'll live with that.
Does have a few niggles but it makes my iphone look sooo out dated!
Right, i have similar issue with letters duplicating but it only happens every now and then and is cured by restarting the phone.
Looks like a software glitch because typing on this phone is as good as when i use my iphone. I'm more than happy with the sensitivity.
I never thought of restarting the phone, but I've done it now and it seems to have fixed the problem. Now I just need to get used to the bigger screen then my crappy old iphone.
I love the screen size in general, though I downloaded a pinball game that only works in portrait which is not really playable because the phone is too heavy to hold only with the bottom.
Its certainly a lot easier to type than I expected coming from the N900. I really REALLY wanted something like the Optimus 3D but with a real keyboard, but sadly I can't see it happening. This "thinner is better" fad really winds me up, I prefer function over form any day of the week.
Speaking of typing, I certainly have had the key repeat problem - I thought it was a build up of grease on the touch screen confusing it. It was quite annoying as my first impression was that typing on this thing is almost as good as a hardware keyboard, then the key repeat issue surfaced. Lets see if firmware 10d fixes it.
update to HTC_IME and u wont have such problem anymore. I had same issue with standart LG keyboard
I'm having the same problem with my keyboard.
It started recently and it's very annoying to try to write a txt with a such sensitive response from the keyboard.
Restating the phone seems to have sorted the problem but, it's weird...
i had this same problem after using the phone perfectly for 2 weeks it suddenly started this annoying habit,i took it back to the carphone warehouse and they exchanged it,so far the replacement is fine.
Hi,
This might be the stupiest Tread I have ever started but.....
I was gonna try drag toilet paper game on my GN but the screen seems to stop "responding with very fast touch/swipe.
Has anyone experienced similar issue in other games?
I had such a feeling months ago in similar situations. In my case it was me loosing contact just a very short amount of time while scrolling very fast and voila: stop .
When I tried it out while ensuring not to loose contact I never ever could reproduce any lags .

I have the same problem, i tried the same thing with a Htc one X and the one X dont got that problem,
i have even noticed the touch can stop responding when im playing Wordfued on my Note, if i drag the letter to quick,
do i got a faulty Samsung Note, or can more people with a Note try and drag something quick over the screen, (wana know if i should try and get it fixed in the warranty)
True, especially when you are superloaded with some shell or graphic mod application like Go Launcher. Trust me friend, you find all happy happy guys in the comment section of play store.. when it comes to using in our own phone things go blarred with hugesome usage of RAM. so try clearing it up by uninstalling high RAM consuming mod apps.
the only rom that i have found that does not have this lag is alba.. however its not a feature rich rom.
Bought a nearly new galaxy tab2 from the internet, but the touchscreen seems not to be working.
Any idea what that can be. Could it be something with a ROM, or does it need to go to Samsung.

It could be failed hardware, a bad cable, or perhaps a problem with the touchscreen controller chip.
If you can capture the boot messages using 'dmesg' over ADB, there may be info there that could help determine which.
If it's under warranty, return it to the seller for a refund or replacement, else just keep searching for a solution :\

When you say the touchscreen "seems" to not be working, what exactly do you mean?
Does it not work AT ALL, or is it just not very responsive to your touch, i.e. scrolling is slow and choppy and/or pinch to zoom is flaky?
Because I have noticed certain apps do not work well on my 10.1 when it comes to the touchscreen, when the tablet is under heavy load. Are you experiencing this more with certain apps, like Chrome and/or Samsung Keyboard? If that's what is happening, I can help.
I use a custom firmware, so not possible to return to samsung.
As it is stuck on the install screen, I can't enable debug for ADB.
Or is it auto enabled on a custom rom.
What has the highest chance of failing. Logic board or digitizer (as the cable is not sold seperatly)
I have a Tab 2 P5110, I bought it as faulty as the touchscreen is not working. Otherwise it's alive and responding to the buttons.
After reading several topics it looks like it is a bug that can only be fixed by physically replacing the digitizer panel.
Of course I'd prefer a software solution but so far what I've found wouldn't work on this model due to HW difference.
Can someone confirm that?
Thanks.
Hi there guys,
I've been researching on this problem i've got with my Oneplus. It seems that the touchscreen is'nt responsive enough.
Often when i'm scrolling trough (for example) facebook, the phone has a hard time recognizing my swipes, and picks up regular touches instead. Which is causing me to open or like posts when i'm just trying to scroll trough. If i'm scrolling trough my homescreens while just slightly touching the screen, it acts up really hard.
The screen just isn't responsive enough imo.
I'm wondering if other people got the same issue, and if it is hardware or software related.

It is different than ghost-touches.
I noticed there is a topic on xda about this problem already: Click
I hope this can be fixed with a software update.

Funny. I have my oneplus one since a week ago more or less and i also noticed this issue in the very first days of use. Now i've opened facebook app to make some scrolling and see if the problem is still there and i have to say that i don't notice it anymore. Strange, but this is what i feel O_O

Hmm, maybe you just got used to press a bit harder onto the screen (which helps). Would be great if it's really disapearing after a while
Got mine for 3 days now.

I have the exact same issue with my OnePlus after 3 weeks of use. At first it was the swype issue where the phone wasn't picking up swypes properly on the middle left side of my screen. I use a pattern unlock so it's annoying when the dots don't connect.
The next thing was not picking up my touches properly so when ever I use SwiftKey and they recommend words, I could never properly select it because the touchscreen wasn't registering properly.
I did a factory reset and it solved the problem at first but it's now back after 2 days. It's not as bad as before but still persistent. There are tons of people on Redit, Cyanogen and the OnePlus forums that are reporting the same problem.
The good news is it seems like a software and not hardware issue, hopefully the permanent fix can come soon.
Possible solution to the supposed OnePlus One touch sensitivity problem
Settings→Developer Options→ Scroll About Half Way and UNcheck "block gesture touch events"
Also try and see if unchecking "Adaptive backlight" in Settings→Display & lights→ Adaptive backlight, helps.
Of course none of these are permanent solutions. And this problem is real. But maybe the "solutions" above help.
ive not had these issues just yet. but i do get annoyed by gesture control
This still needs to be addressed. It's almost as bad as an old capacitive touch screen!
I got my phone maybe a month after it was released. After exactly 4 months the touchscreen input died and lost all sensitivity. Typing became impossible. After going back and fourth with support for 2 months they finally sent me another one. The new one was excellent for EXACTLY FOUR MONTHS!! Almost to the DAY! My damn touch is broken again and I can't type. I'm furious! I'm also 1wk outside warranty.
With the first phone I tried every hack, crack, rom, reformat, anything I could find. Nothing would restore the touch. I assume it's a hardware issue. I've been looking around for a solution but haven't found anything. If there is anything, I would appreciate some direction.
Sorry for everyone that ever wasted their money on OnePlus, I won't be getting any more products from them...
I've noticed a lot of people complaining about screen lag recently, where everythings just dull and slow (not so much touch issues)- and unfortunately im one off them people!
My phone is the newer branch (november) and im starting to have a slow screen ever since oxygen! i've gone stock 11s n its seem to followed me!
but i really think its heat related, it will be fine for the most part, once it starts getting warm (recently its been getting hotter then normal) the screen goes dull.
THIS IS NOT GHOST TOUCH.
my screen doesnt press random things, the phone is just dull to type on and stuff but only when its hot/warm, and when i say hot, i mean hot..
but im not doing anything different to what i used to and it used to be okay, but then again........weathers getting hotter....
my nexus 4 was horrible when warm also......
currently on cm12 nightly, 06.04.15
tried stock 11s too but only lasted a few hours
If anybodys noticed this PLEASE say something, also if this issue is because my phone is 'defective', will i be able to send it to oneplus for a repair? wil it be worth it? will it be free? how long will it take (*roughly*)
sorry for all the questions and blabber, it's just i've been wondering A LOT and ive not been getting straight answers.
Ps. NEVER had issues BEFORE oxygen. oxygen was NOT on my phone for longer than a day due to the horrible keyboard issues, but the phone was really hot during oxygen......... thanks anyway, :good:
I have the same problem. It seems to happen when my phone has been warm-hot for 15-20 minutes. No ghost touches, but scrolling is really laggy, and sometimes it doesn't register a tap on a link or app. It seems to go away if I let my phone cool down. I've looked everywhere online, and I've seen a few people mention similar problems, but most of the time it's about the ghost touch thing. I really hope it's not a hardware issue. I can't go without a phone for a month and a half for the RMA. People seem to have a lot of issues with RMAs. I'm surprised there aren't more people having this issue.
Also, I'm not on oxygen. I'm having the issue on Euphoria 5.0.2.
I started having the exact same issue two weeks ago, and I did not even try oxygen os. I also bought the phone in november. I tried opening the phone and cleaning the connector but it didn't help at all... now I'm having the issue all the time, not only when the phone is hot and it feels like I have a $30 phone
I really don't know what to do since I opened the phone,so no RMA possible. I bought a Moto E and I'm gonna have to use it until I fix the issue. I dont even know if it's software or hardware, that's a really strange issue.
Edit : the touch screen just worked fine for 2 minutes, then became laggy again
