Guys pls help enabling the air view feature is creating some problems .
Wen I use spen to type on keyboard with airview On. Then wo touching the screen the spen types watever letters it waves over.
Spen also selects application automatically wo touching it just by waiving it over the screen.
As soon as I switch off airview the problem ends.
Pls help is anyone facing the same problem.
Or any solutions....??????????
That is not a problem related to airview.
It was a known "bug" on original Note spen and it has definitely been carried over here too.
That s pen sometimes clicks even when it is 4 - 5 mm above the surface.
It is usually when the mobile is....on flat surface afaik...
Its not related to airview
sounds really stupid but reading another thread on here someone said to slam the pen down on its side as to not harm it and it will work perfectly......mine was doing the same thing as yours an it was very frustrating....this fixed it immediately and now it is awesome!!!

I tried tapping the pen, moving the tip, cleaning, turning air view off - nothing fixed it until I adjusted the potentiometers

My Acer A100 (love it to pieces) but my screen is a little too sensitive. On my A500, under Settings/Screen there is a option to change but I haven't found anything on my A100.
Any suggestion?
What do you mean it is too sensitive? I didn't know that was possible.
I find it too sensitive too. Always double typing letters with thumb keyboard and unintentionally clicking when trying to scroll. I didn't realize there was an option to adjust on my A500, but i haven't found a need for it on that tab. I've looked for apps that might help, but no luck.
I agree that the unintentional entry into threads while scrolling seems to be a reault of over sensitivity. Starts to become rather annoying after a while.

Glad to see I am not the only one. I suppose that does not offer a solution on how to make it tolerable.

One thousannd dtimes this. I could type on my trannsformmer with thumb keyboard like a champ. With tthis thing, I have to type soo painstakingly to avoid ddouble keypresses.
The above was not exaggerated for dramatic effect.
You can put a screen protector on it. That will reduce the sensitivity.
THAT. Is a good idea.
I have put a screen protector; also as suggested by Acer tech support, removed the sticker from the side. Still too sensitive for my liking.
I also find too sensitive and have a screen protector installed. I also find it hard to click on links. If there are two links close by I always click on the one that I did not intend to. Seems its a little off. Anyone have this problem?

I have had my a100 for 2 months now. I really like it but what I find irritating is the inconsistent screen response. Most of the time it is too sensitive that it toes a letter multiple times or the back button will go back more than one screen. Other times I have to hit a link or a button a couple of times before it responds. Sometimes I hit a link and a link adjacent to it will be launched. I also have problems with scrolling a it will launch a link instead of scrolling. I already have a screen protector but it did not improve things.
I was just about to start a new thread for this, but it seems like a common problem with the A100.
Scrolling through my dropbox is nearly IMPOSSIBLE, every time I try to scroll, it clicks a link.
Also, trying to long press a item can be difficult, because it will treat it like a click instead of a long press.
I was having the same problem too!
I found out that after disabling SwiftKey X tablet keyboard returned the Acer to a great state of sensitivity level.
This might be the same thing, but with another keyboard or something.
I was constantly pressing the wrong icons and doing unintentional actions while scrolling!!!
I hope this could help.
how did you disable it the swift keyboard?

jahciple,
You either uninstall it from My App in Market App. Or uncheck the keyboard from input methods.
I hope that works for you!
Please post your feedback and share it with us!
nm i thought you were referring to the stock keyboard.

I think the problem when scrolling and it accidentally selecting is because the touch screen loses connection with your finger and thinks you lifted it off and then touched it again. If you download multitouch vis and test touch sensitivity by running your finger from side to side that the colored dots will flicker or sometimes disappear as if you lifted yout finger off. So I think its not because its too sensitive but less sensitive. This happens more if you just lay the tablet down on a surface so only your finger is touching it. If you touch the bezel with your other hand it as you touch test with the other then it will respond better. This could possibly be grounding issue.

Definitely having this problem on mine. This is really the only issue I have with the device, and it's quite frustrating!
Same here. Sometimes when I'm scrolling on the home screen it either scrolls backwards or scroll two pages over (skipping one page). Anyone else have the issue? As for the other issues (clicking links while scrolling) I experience those too. I really love the device too. I was gonna get the Nook Tablet but I gott this for cheaper and it's just as good if not better.

i think we need to bring this up to acers attention. Im sure its just a matter of software update. When the original evo 4g came out it had touch screen issue where it wouldnt respond correctly unless your touching the device with your other hand. It was fixed via software update. Same thing happens with this device. Again download multitouch vis and you can test touch sesitivity while laying it on a surface while running one finger all across the screen you will see it flicker as if its not recognizing complete touch. But once you hold the device up with the other hand while touching the screen with the other then it doesnt flicker.
I double tap, and it seems like a solid 2 seconds before the note comes up. 2 seconds is a long time if you are trying to jot something down quickly.
To clarify, I am talking about opening up the note taking feature by pressing the S-PEN button and double tapping on the screen.
My note was doing the same thing and I found some crazy setting that did the trick. Mine is now almost instant. I'm looking right now trying to find that setting.....stand by.
I can't seem to find the setting now. I don't remember if I had actually turned something off or on now. I just came across it before and boom it worked. Sorry dude, but I will keep checking here in a bit after my meeting. I am also running Zedi 3.2 rom if that has anything to do with it.

OMG yes a some what huge delay; it gets annoying.
Go into S Pen settings and check the box to have S note pop up when you remove pen, it is instant upon pen removal.

Thank you Granna. That is a good work around, but not really the solution I was looking for since I don't use the note each time I pull out the pen.
Hoping for another fix.
I have another type of delay.
If you go to Snotes and try to open any note you have there it takes forever to open the note. Sometimes I think I didnt touch the icon well enough but then it opens. There are times I have to wait 4-5 sec to open a note in Snotes.
Such a slow app. However my pop-up note works very fast everytime double click with pen.

I always seems to be rotating and un-rotating my screen to get it to turn the way I want it to.
I had trouble with the Note1 with this and thought/hoped this new "smart rotation" camera checking you face position thing would help and I don't really think it helps at all.
It makes me especially nuts when I have my note 2 in Landscape mode in a holder in the car and my GPS software is shown the wrong way ...
I have also noticed that when using multiview that it gets more confusing.
Is this just more or are others not thrilled?
I would love to have a way to have a single button to make it rotate on demand and one then.
(NOT the don't rotate option that exists )
am I missing something basic?
THanks
Allen
I think its just the size of the phone, you try hold it and do stuff in one hand as you're used to, but because you have to hold it weird to get anything done, it rotates when you dont want it to. Only thing you can really do is disable autorotate. It would be good if you could adjust the threshold when to rotate, but of course on the other side of it, people will then say its too slow etc
Can't say this has been an issue for me. Seems to usually be in the correct orientation for what I want.

I know exactly what you mean. That's why I use display orientator. It places an rotate icon anywhere on your screen. So when you hold the phone in landscape. press the icon. and it stays locked in landscape.
When you're done in landscape, and hold your phone in portrait. press the rotate icon again, and it now returns to portrait.
perfect for me. No more flip floping rotating screen unless I want it to rotate.

Thanks - Display Orientator seems to be somewhat helpful.
He anyone seen thgouh any value added in this "smart rotate" in terms of using the camera to see where your face is? I have not found it helpful
I only ever had problems when changing between apps. I turned off the face checking orientation but it didn't conserve any more battery. On stock rom.
Nuts? Like hell, like Woods, like Savimbi. Seriously. I wondered no one had this issue unit I saw this topic. And that Smart Stay is a gimmick I think, I've no idea what it does basically!
I'll try that orientator app. Thanks.
Swyped from my GT-N7100
I don't use Smart Rotate but I do find the phone way too sensitive at turning to landscape. Sometimes the phone is only barely tipped towards that way when placing it down and it rotates.
Any way to adjust at what angle it turns?
Is there anyone els experiencing the same "problem" (not sure if it is a problem or can be disabled) sometimes while using the phone not always tho I can scroll through the broser or any other app im using without touching the screen just by hovering my finger over the screen.
Its a feature called air view not a problem.. go to settings-> controls-> air view.. disable it..
Sent from my SM-N750 using XDA Free mobile app
I have air view already disabled but it still happens... while browsing sometimes 2 3 times in a week for a of couple seconds but on lockscreen with the watercolour eff most of the time its there.
maybe its a firmware error :/
Thanks anyway
I had got the same thing....actually its not a problem but a feature with which you can use your phone even with gloves on....It basically makes the screen more sensitive and even when you dont touch it and just hover a bit above it,the phone detects the touch...
To disable this goto Setting --> Controls --> Increase Touch senstivity and untick it....
That should solve it....

Problem??? I don't think it's a problem. I kinda like it and often flaunt it to my friends... "See the MAGIC" hahaha .. Amazing Samsung
I just bought the Note 4 and after installing a custom recovery my bottom portion of the screen doesn't work (specifically the area where the app drawer is located on the home screen). I can use the S pen any where on the screen. I have now reverted my phone back to stock with the hopes of fixing this problem though it didn't help. Is there anything else I can do.
Also, the top portion of the screen that works seems to be off be 2-3cm. This makes me think that the calibration of the touch sensor maybe be off. Is there any way to fix that?
Edit: it seems that when I go into landscape mode there is no recognition error. Perfect accuracy and there isn't a zone that doesn't work.

Im assuming you have D.E. version of the note 4 as the retail is locked. Next question ive seen people have issues with both s-pen and screen, so is there a way you can try another s-pen on your screen and try your s-pen on another screen?

The S-Pen works fine on my phone and other devices. There just seems to be a block where the touch sensor doesnt pick up on anything. It also seems that the area for the touch sensor that is recognized by the software shrunk and isn't actually broken. So lately I have been trying to find a way to re calibrate it or find some sort of system file for me to edit the value and put them back to normal.
