[Mystery SOLVED] Huge multi touch/App shutdown problem !!? - HTC One X+

Hey folks, I have serious issues with the multi touch recognition..
What you do:
You tap and hold with one finger, then you tap tap with another finger
What the phone does:
It forgets the first finger you are holding down.
IMHO that should definitely not be the case, especially not in this price range.
(and if you think why the hell does he care and how does one notice?...just play some pinball game and you will See..)
This is international stock ROM. Any suggestions?
Thanks and good night,
Daranus
Edit: even more visible in games like dead trigger. When I am running forward with the left thumb and tap the right thumb for a single shot, I stop running. That does not seem right at all.

Hello
I don't always play games in my phone, but only to testing if there is a problem in multitouch or not, i installed 2 games (pinball deluxe and dead trigger) and didn't notice any anomalies or problems in multi touch points (i can use 2 points touch at same time freely and without any interface between each others),so i think its software bug, so i suggest to do soft reset (or hard reset) and see if the problem persist.
Also you can test your screen touch points with an free app in play store (multi-touch benchmark test) and see the result.
P.S try to disable the 3 fingers htc gestures which found in setting/display & gestures/htc gesture (because with this option enabled you have only 3 points multitouch, but with this option disabled you have 10 points multitouch-yes 10 points-).
Thanks

Don't have that problem on mine.

This happens to me as well. I could not figure out why dead trigger was not working properly, now I realize it's a system wide issue.
I tried disabling HTC gestures and enabling it and I'm still having this problem.

Thanks for your answers,
I already used an application for multi touch testing, same results.
It does not matter if you turn the 3 finger thingy on or off (and we are talking 2 finger only anyway so it should not matter)
And good to know, that an ATT device can have the issues as well...I wonder what it is =/
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda app-developers app

Alright...one step further.
Did a hard reset and the issue is gone.
Now I have to track down what actually broke the multi-touch function..will post if I do!

Got it.
Managed to break it again and discover the reason.
If you choose to have no lockscreen, you break multi touch. That simple.
Try it out folks.

So it breaks it permanently if you ever decide to not have a lockscreen, or just while you don't have one?

Just while you dont have one (so it was only me who lost everything because of that bull**** )
However, I think it's a serious issue which was a pain in the ass to track down because who in hell could think that this is caused by that. Is there some place to tell HTC such stuff?
And if someone with a custom ROM reads this, can he confirm if custom ROMs have the same issue? Tyvm!
Just discovered even more...it even breaks games (!!!) E.g. Maple Story live. Is Unplayable with no lockscreen because it ends itself all the time for no reason without an error...and now...no issues anymore, runs like a charm.
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda app-developers app

I've been having the same multitouch issue, rendering most games unplayable. Thus far enabling the lockscreen does not solve it.
Edit: after rebooting the problem is gone...strange. I can't wait for CM 10.1 to come out so I can get rid of this ROM

Just installed multi-touch test app, disabled lockscreen and multi-touch works like it should. Recognized 10 fingers (didn't try with foots Latest 1.17 firmware.

Touchscreen sensitivity app

I had a galaxy's, and recently I bought a Atrix.
I noticed that Atrix has a touch screen less sensitive than galaxy.
I've downloaded from the market "sgs touchscreen booster", this is an app to manage the touchscreen galaxy.
I tried it on 'Atrix and it works fine for me.
Now I am satisfied with the touchscreen.
If anyone has the same problem, I advise him to try.
Sorry for my bad English
I can not tell if it is even working.

It work very well for me.

I had noticed that coming from Captivate, the touch screen felt... different. Just installed. Hopefully this helps. Thanks!
you are awesome!
I had the touchscreen bug where my screen would go unresponsive, was going to bring it in today (concerned about my device having the france rom on it.) and this app got it working again perfectly!
will be sure to buy you a beer on payday if this holds up.
just installed.. seems to be much more responsive to me.. have it set to "optimized". will try them all out..thx!

Same. I still, along with (I think) everyone, have the issue with multi-touch when you hold fingers down for a certain number of seconds and the screen equalizes it, forcing you to wait a few seconds and try it again. This really annoys me on games like Jet Car Stunts, when, for example, I hold the accelerate button but eventually I have to let go and press it again to keep the car accelerating.
yeah that apparently is a feature and done by design from what I read. the problem i had was worse in the sent that imagine the screen going nuts after 5 seconds of activity.
Is there any way to increase the multitouch number. This app says it can but it doesn't work I know this is for the galaxy but is there any other way?

I was getting so annoyed of this phone because when i tried to typed i couldnt type one work without making a huge mistake because the screen wasnt picking up everything i guess. if i typed hey fast it would just type "hy" or something. but when i did this and put the sensitivity up to 80% and left the rest on default it fixed it. now i can type fast without any mistakes and it seems as it fixed multitouch problems as well! This app is definitely recommended.
I've always thought the Atrix screen could do with a higher sensitivity, after using the iphone. It might be all in the mind, but this app does seem to help. It is particularly noticeable when typing, I no longer have any missed letters where I haven't pressed hard enough.
Thanks for sharing this app

Minecraft PE

I'm having issues on my Rezound with the Minecraft controls. Ill try moving and as i move it suddenly will stop registering my touch on the controls. Any ideas what is going on with this? It renders the game unplayable and i need my Minecraft lol.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Not saying this is your problem, but in the beginning of the rezound forums, some games multutouch was messed up from certain launchers , and lockers. If you applied one, it would make your touch screen behave this way. Wish i could be of more help.

In addition to the above, make sure the screen is clean, and if it is plugged in that the wire is secure. I know my wire is wobbly and can make the screen start "ghosting," I have to lock the screen and unlock to get the screen responding normally again. That method may or may not help here.
Somewhat related, I've been running Newt's XxX 3.2.1 and can verify multitouch is messed up beyond three touches. Noticed on Osmos when I try to play. But I can play games fine otherwise; majority of games I've encountered require only two touches at most.

GOOOOOOOOOOD NEWS
this what i got from HTC representative
Dear Salwansk,
I have some news for you that I missed earlier today. I can confirm that we have started working on a touch sensitivity update for your phone. I don't have an ETA for release, however we have some suggestions in the meantime. If you have a screen cover or screen protector, we suggest removing that and cleaning the screen.
Let's calibrate the keyboard, which impacts the entire display. Here's how:
1. Slide the Notification panel open
2. Tap Settings
3. Tap Languages and keyboard
4. Tap HTC Sense Input
5. Tap Advanced
6. Tap Calibration tool
I also suggest cleaning the screen if there is a chance that dust or moisture is on the device. This can further improve your sensitivity.
i can confirm that my phone and my family phones are way better now........
what i did is cutting around the buttons "BACK & HOME"..... now it has been almost 24 hours and i never get the lag again
i hope it will work forever
Noticed this myself. Might be tied to the issue of decreased capacitive button sensitivity. I'm hoping the 1.29 OTA update will fix it.
Yeah same here. I noticed I have to press it at a certain point to function
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
same here, the back button is slow or sometimes doesn't work. hopefully the next OTA will fix it.
There is a calibration utility somewhere in settings that fixes this from what I remember reading a few days ago.

I wasn't having any problems until I put on a screen protector, then it became laggy. Took it off and haven't had a problem since.
I cut my screen off where the buttons are and I haven't had issues since. A bit annoying, since I want the SGP Ultra Clear but don't feel like tearing them up. I've heard that the Taiwanese version got an update that fixed it completely.

Unresponsive capacive keys

Has anyone else been experiencing weak or unresponsive home and back keys. My home key does not always work. Just trying to see if mine is faulty or others experience this issue.

I have the same issue and it has been pissing me off. I have read the OTA has fixed this issue for some. I am still waiting for my OTA to come through.
Screen off/screen on seems to kick it back into gear most of the time for me.
I had the same problem. Unlocked bootloader and put TrickDroid on, and this problem is gone. Not that it should be the solution, but it seems the move to the international update fixed that problem.
I also had the problem on stock AT&T ROM. Flashed ARHD and the problem is gone

Stock ATT rom here and there are times I have to hit the home button a few times. Gonna unlock bootloader tonight and see about installing a rom.
Mine definitely require very accurate taps. I am getting used to it, but I am hoping a software update will improve the responsiveness.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
Seems to be the case more with our (ATT) software. Flashing the international or one of the international ROMs seems to make it much more responsive. Hopefully our phones will get the update soon!
I loaded an international Rom and I still occasionally get buttons that don't work and I have to lock and unlock the screen.

Some say it's the screen protectors some say it's not. I did notice before I out one on it wasn't so bad. But once I out it in was constantly smashing the buttons and where the are so flipping close to the screen I would open unwanted apps. Anyway I too a straight edge and an exacto knife and cut the protector off right where the screen ends and the black capacitive area begins. Did it last night and haven't had to press anything more than once. Just a thought from a guy

Compared to my One X, neither of the buttons are precise at all, even without a screen protector on the AT&T Rom.

I agree. A screen protector shouldn't make a difference. Never did with ny One X either.

Even when I didn't have the screen protector installed it was also very finicky. It seems like you have to press down exactly on the buttons for them to register the action. Even then, one of the buttons will sometimes wig out on me while the other one will continue working. It seems like the problem resolves itself within fifteen seconds most of the time, but its annoying nonetheless.
What's funny is that I thought it was a software problem at first, but even after switching over to the newest CM nightlies it still happens every now and then.
Yea but basing that in cm10 is irrelevant
Because so much is patched and ported but agreed this thing sucks sometimes

Touch screen issue

From few days I have touch screen problems and Im not shure is from the software or just need new touch screen.When I press on the screen once, then phone start to pressing by himself on random places on the screen(On CM10 theres function that i can see where i pressed with fingers and i was able to see what is gong on, its like im typing on the screen with 3-4 fingers,just screen is going crazy and i just can sid and watch what phone doing)....Like today I join on skype and started to chat.After few second phone started to writing alone
Anyone with the same issue ? And how can be fixed ? New display?
I think that's more of a kernel issue. Try switching your kernel.

Its the Hackers controlling you're phone! I knew that InfinityShooter guy seemed strange. Haha only Joking
But yeah Try a different Kernel (Fulmix or Infinity) as suggested I used to get this a lot on NexusKernel
