Edited with Notepad++... copied to /system with Root Browser.
Fix permissions with Root Browser (important or you will bootloop... I think this may be the problem some are having.). All's good.

Noticeably better screen response.

Double-tap to wake better.

Really appreciate this. I have just added to my build prop and so far the phone seems very responsive. I will keep and eye open over the next few days to see how this progresses and report back. I had just done a factory wipe and fresh install of the Version C from autoprimes zip file which also seemed to help.

Open the build.prop file with es fileexplorers editor and safe it afterwards, no extra steps needed, no permissions to repair or something else. Just hastle free...

Okay shbang, I can confirm your settings are working amazingly for me on my Verizon G4. Touch is super responsive and I barely have to tap where I used to have to tap hard and in most cases more than once(or twice). Thanks for sharing and I'm following closely for any new findings.

Something I've noticed; removing the back cover and holding the phone like normal with my hand across the battery, touch is flawless, whether I'm typing, swiping, scrolling, etc.

Leads me into believing the "grounding issue" theorists.

Hmmmm - I just gave this a quick try - and it does seem to improve things. Interesting...

Which back covers do you guys have and do you have any cases on the phone normally?

Tmo leather for me. No case
Just the standard plastic back cover on my H815. No case. Yet.
so same issue with either back cover, there goes that thought, but yeah im still thinking some kind of ground issue or connectivity issue like others have stated

no no no, i'm saying if you REMOVE the cover... in my case my leather cover... and hold my phone as I usually would, with my hand gripping the battery area, the touch is flawless.

yeah i just typed my response wrong, i was just wondering if there was any difference in the 2 types of back covers, if you both had the leather cover, then we would need to find someone with the regular cover who may not have any touch issues, but i guess the phones been out long enough that if that were the case, we would have known by now...oh well, so much for my theory :)

if you read the reviews you will see that it has worked for lots of people with diffrent device, you should try to have open mind and try something before you try to discredit it, if it does not work for you fine but you do not have to be a **** about it ****.
