Version for Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 planned?

Hello,
will there be a version for the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1?
Currently I'm using CM10 as I hoped this may fix the sensitivity problem (unfortunately it didn't)
But a compatible version for the new stock ROM 4.1.1 would do also.

Hi vitalij,

Any news on Tab 2 development?

i heard from vitalyj, the guy behind touchscreen tune, that samsung used the SYNAPTICS S7301 chip (which is incompatible with his app as of now) for the tab 2. The guys from cyanogen mod project wrote a driver for the chip at least for a s2 fork or something, i saw the code on github but i do not have enough posts here to post the direct link unfortunately ;)
Its CyanogenMod / android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412 project, "synaptics: Add S7301 touchscreen driver " commit.
Could this help for a development of a similar app for the tab 2? Could one compile the kernel and post the console commands for the settings or is it too hard to do fast or a t all?

PS: Hello XDAforums!

I paid for the app anyway, as devs like yourself do the Android community proud ;)

Cheers,

Lee

your app is very cool. It is an awesome idea to do palm rejection throw software. Seems to me that tegra 4 is doing something similar combined with a 200 mhz screen. there are also a lot of bluetooth stylus for ipad but i don't know any for android and because your idea is the closest we have, i would like to ask you if you could continue with your project and try to improve your palm rejection and maybe do a fundraiser.
it would be cool to combine your app with a bluetooth stylus to get more accuracy and virtually to every android tablet(i know that this is probably asking too much but I would contribute)

Does responsiveness and features also improve on Omni-ROM 4.4.2?
Is there even anything on 4.4.2 which can be improved that simple?
Is it KitKat-Compatible, ART and so on?

I am on KitKat and this app working excellent. Also before that I used CM 4.2.2 with pershoot kernel did worked without any issue!
Not sure about other devices, but for Galaxy Tab 10.1 working!

    direct link

    Or search for "TouchScreenTune"

    *Requires Root*
    *Currently supports Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 and Asus Transformer Prime*. (Galaxy Note version also available on the Market)

    TouchScreenTune application allows you to fine-tune settings of Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 touchscreen.

    It allows to dramatically improve responsiveness and sensitivity of Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 touchscreen.

    Without this application, it is almost impossible to use Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 for handwriting or drawing. Application completely fixes this issue.

    If you are using screen protector on your Tab, the application will allow to raise screen sensitivity, so there will be no responsiveness impact from using screen protector.

    If you are using stylus, it is almost useless without tuning touchscreen with this application on Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.

    Using this application you can even turn on palm rejection future! That means that your hand can rest on screen while writing/drawing using stylus, but you will still be able to write since touch events from your palm will be ignored.
    Just see youtube video, it shows how Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 works without this application, and with this application!

    If you wish to use different settings in different situations - just create shortcuts with different settings from within the app, and launch them when needed!

    Some common problems:
    When first starting there should be popup from SuperUser application with request to get Root access. Some people say that sometimes it doesn't appear. In that case try starting the SU program first, and then this application.

    Also when first granting SU rights, there may be some messages regarding inability to read settings. It's normal, after you grant SU rights application should work.

    --------------------------------------------------
    What's new
    Version 1.17:
    Compatibility with latest CyanogenMod for Tab 10.1

    Fixed bug when parameters were not applied after invoking settings via shortcut on the home screen

    Version 1.11:
    Added ability to create shortcuts on the home screen. Shortcut is associated with currently applied settings. When clicked, shortcut will immediately apply them, without starting TouchScreenTune application. It is possible to have multiple shortcuts with different settings.

    Version 1.8:
    Annoying notifications from SU removed

    Version 1.3:
    PALM REJECTION:
    added slider allowing to turn on palm rejection. That means that you hand can rest on screen while writing using stylus, but you will still be able to write since touch events from your palm will be ignored. Set palm detection slider value to 0 or maybe a bit more like 1-10 to enable this functionality.

    added advanced parameter: changing movement filter OFF value. This value is sent to touchscreen controller when checkbox is set to CHECKED. After changing it, press Apply button to set new configuration.

    Version 1.1:
    Added compatibility with latest custom roms/kernels
    Solves screen freezing issue after turning screen on when using latest custom kernels/ROMs

    Version 1.0:
    Added ability to change sensitivity, move filtering ant initial movement at the same time
    Completely new Honeycomb interface
    Reworked service part - should work without FCs
    Way easier to use
    New icon !!111 :)

    Application is free but it will not restore settings on screen lock/unlock. To make it fully functional you need registration key, which I can provide for a small donation, details in the app itself.
    (If you already donated for previous version, send me an email, I'll send registration key for free)

    Good idea. I'm thinking on adding possibility to create a shortcuts on home screen with currently selected settings, so next time it would be enough to just click it to apply those settings.

    Version 1.11:
    Added ability to create shortcuts on the home screen. Shortcut is associated with currently applied settings. When clicked, shortcut will immediately apply them, without starting TouchScreenTune application. It is possible to have multiple shortcuts with different settings.

    Argh, damnit! We have the kernel sources, is there any way to raise those touch events reported?

    BTW, I have the same stylus, can't wait to put it to good use.

    Hi,

    i saw people mentioning a build.prop setting named windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec, which is set to 150 by default on the 7500. I've changed that to 300, and it appears to make things snappier, especially scrolling operations. I finally got close to iPad2's responsiveness with this. But there might also be other factors involved...

    When I tried to edit /system/build.prop I get the error that the file system is read only. Please help!

    Assuming you have EF File Explorer:

    Under settings, select both the "Root Explorer" AND the "Mount File System" right underneath it. That should do it!
