Default Help me test this tweak for the touchscreen. (updated - 2)

Has many of you noticed, the touchscreen is way too sensitive and while typing / using the device, the touchscreen does not react correctly / works alone.

I think i found a way to at least make it a little better.

Install the cab and reboot.

Please tell me what you think.

Thank you.

EDIT: V2 of the tweak. It is my best. Can't find better results.

or

in case you don't like it ..

Edit 2 - It seams that some ppl ( http://pocketnow.com/tweaks-hacks/hd...-too-sensitive ) like to judge without knowing what the problem is all about, so, two videos are really better than my english..

The problem in not about the display being to sensitive, is about it being precise or not and about ghost key-press ..

Just download the file bellow to understand what this is all about first...

I am trying it now. The screen has been making me nuts. I have had mine for four days now. I read books using mobipocket and it will start changing pages by itself. It will also register random screen presses when using core player. And don't get me started on typing.....Hope this helps.

I do notice an immediate improvement. I will keep you posted, but the initial couple of tests feel way better. THANK YOU.

I should have thought of this before installing the cab, but do you have a backup of the registry key that it alters? (Just in case I want to back-out)

Cool. I'm not finding any difference, to be honest, but I was just about getting there with typing and have never had any phantom screen presses anyway, so probably not the best judge

Would you mind posting either a cab or reg file for backing out? Not planning on doing it, but would like the option.

Cheers mate.
