Anyone noticed using touch screen in games slows down device?

---

I mean its ridicolous like games like virtual pool which ran on my 300mhz xscale ipaq at full speed slows to a crawl once I start touching the cue stick or ball onscreen. When I am not touching the screen in any game like ffrace or wolfenstein or duke3d or krally it runs pretty well (though not as fast as a 400mhz xscale of samsung device) but once I touch the screen the graphics slow to a halt. It makes awesome games like call of duty 2 virtually unplayable unless you can set the game to just use the hardware buttons or keypad, but not all games have such an option.

Whats the deal? the HTC Trinity had this problem on earlier roms but I am running Dutty's latest rom with the very latest CE build and it still has this problem.

Welcome in the wonderfull world of the Kaiser. You like gaming ? Don't buy a Kaiser !
About COD2, I also tried to play the game without touching the screen, only by pressing the buttons, but it is very slow anyway (unplayable from my point of view).
But I would be glad if I only had problems with COD2 !!!

ive been trying to find a way to fix this problem, i think it can be done, but i would need a rom cooker? someone who is famaliar with a rom (or device) which it's screen does not slow down when pressed. we may be able to get the touchscreen driver from this device. i know theres someone out there that can help.

Are there any HTC devices which doe
n't slow down when using the touchscreen?

the Universal, for example. that is, non-2.8) models.


(BTW, i my articles, I've thoroughly disussed this problem and was among the first, 2 years ago,to report the problem to HTC. Too bad they still haven't bothered fixing it..)

it is more than just the touch screen drivers its the Direct 3D and other graphics driver that dont exisit on the Kaiser at all if you would read the other threads there is a large pool of money for the first person to make these drivers and get them working on the Kaiser... HTC screwed everyone with there advertising and I have to admit this phone is ****ing slow for what it should be i think all processors should be atleast 900mhz to make it fast enough for me

As you can tell Menneisyys, people do not want to listen....


Menneisyys has said this many times before the d3d issue came out...


There is a touch screen handler problem in ALL HTC devices..


PLEASE...SEARCH THE FORUM...

Menneisyys,

This problem would pretty much cripple the Polaris/Cruise. Do you think this will be a problem for this device as well. I have posted this question several times, but so far all I have gotten is anecdotal replys about the screen being the same as the Touch. The Touch is also 2.8 screen but some people suggest the screen technology is different, so it works better. I have tried a friends Touch, and it does seem to be better, but not dramatiaclly better and from an external standpoint, all I can tell is that it is flush mounted instead of inset.

So from someone who understands the internals, is there any reason why the screens used for the Touch and (assuming) the soon to be relased Cruise perform better?
