Default any way to desensitize the capacitive touch buttons?

Just as the tittle says.

It's been a month and I still keep hitting the back button way too often when using the keyboard and trying to hit spacebar.

Solutions besides more training? Its rather annoying. Makes me want some hardware buttons instead of these.

Do you mean "desensitize"?
You could try using the widget called "keep the lights on" to make these buttons light up 100% of the time. That's what I do. Then you'll have a visual reminder to not press the button.

you are right.. somehow the spell checker corrected into that...

But... you don't need a program... you can do that via settings-display-touch key light duration. which i actually have on all the time.

Problem is that I don't look at the keys i am hitting... Never had to on the iPhone :facepalm:

That's awesome!
That option was not available in my Infuse and I just assumed it wasn't available in the GSII either so I just used the same app for this that I used on my Infuse!
