Frankly, it s quite a known issue t the Desire has a faulty touchscreen and you should know that by having used the search button with lots of occurences.
First thing first: The HTC Desire has a dual- touch screen type and not multitouch. The means it has been designed mainly to support pinch to zoom actions. Therefore only two fingers can be recognized "fine",on the screen.
Why "fine"? Because it actually takes the real position of the first finger and calculate the virtual position of the second finger. This touchscreen configuration has created an issue that is well known as Axis swapping and stickiness. Search this on the Desire and you should get more information that, I hope, will help you very well

Thanks about the fast awnser =]
I searched about touch related issues, but this is not the problem Iam talking about...
I cant use the phone in avarage use, I getting crazy from using it every day,
Its hardware related issue...

Up, help please

Assuming you can disable multitouch. Your screen acts like it's always touching the top right side of the screen, then you wont even be able to swipe your finger as that top right screen bug will always make use of the touch functionality.
You determined it's a hardware issue then go replace the screen.

Good find bro. Thanks for the share.
OT: just dont mind idiots who discourage other people from sharing in this site. These people somehow think that this forum is just for the "elite"... they've forgotten that the main reason for this forum's success is due to the inputs of ALL.

Seems like a very interesting app to have if your power button is in an awkward place or broken for some reason. I don't find it useful for the Xperia S other than the fact that the phone is slippery as hell (just discovered this today, I never really take off my case and didn't realize how easy it would be to drop the darn thing without a case).

true,there is lots apps like this... but most of them didn't work ....
when you hit , it doesn't give you screen lock, but instead give you blank screen, then goes to screen lock on display ..... ( or if they work, sometimes it's hard when you want to open .. )
trust me, i've try all screen lock app ...
but this app works perfectly, with this you got true screen lock
and you don't have to wearing out that power button, for screen unlock you can try wake up with volume mod ...

Cool app..would've been better if it can wake the screen up as well.

Interesting to see Screen Lock here
Hi friends,
Surprised. :good: This app is created by me , Good to see app info reached XDA before it's developer :laugh:
Want to fix any issues found in this app.

after I flashed it with stock rom 4.4.2, I confirmed that this is a hardware related problem. the notif area, the middle screen, and the back home recent apps button still not responsive. my phone stuck in the language selection because the next button to proceed is located at the bottom of the screen which is not responsive. maybe I just go to the sony service center to make a claim. damn you sony!!

[Q] Touch sensitivity

I have this issue in my grand where touch response is very jumpy. First I thought it was a software issue, but I found that problem goes away when i remove the back cover. I think phone trends to bend a little when the back cover is inserted. Anyone else facing this? Any remedys?

I also have same problem, so remove the flip cover came with my grand and purchase new one from the market & the problem is solve.

Hi,
If you facing such issue then first try to test another rom like Cosmic or Probam, if the same thing happening again, then do the installation from first stage i.e. Installing stock rom Odin to CM11, & the problem will gone, most of the time its happen because we try different Rom on same base, try this it will help

Dont know but it actually happening the screen touches jump like there in ghost in my phone & we have the ghost buster solution.

Better have a look at ua charger or the charging point!
That also causes such mishap!

Touchscreen delay - anyone else experience this?

Running the latest global beta 7.6.1 ROM just updated tonight... was same on 7.5.16 too
My Google pixel does not experience this.. It is really bad on games too - like Pixel Gun and Minecraft PE

I have similar stuff happening on 7.5.19 Xiaomi EU ROM. But it doesn't bother me.
Basically, I think the ROM gives some tolerance on how far should the initial movement has gone to unlock the pointer from the initial position. Definitely not a hardware problem.

Does anyone else have this issue? I am thinking about returning my MI6.. can anyone else take a video using the multitouch tester like me, and doing a touch and fine movement on the screen without making the circle move? please help! I really need to know if this is just the phone, or whether mine is faulty. thanks so much in advance

Actually the touch is very sensitive, just the way they decide that if you put down the finger like that, no mistouch (no movement is recorded). Whenever I play game, just push enough and move your finger and I have no problem with that (as a habit of gamers, I don't stiched my fingers on the screen that much).
Actually if you put the finger down and move it a little, it move the circle. But if you hard push for longer, slightly move don't move the circle. Hope you can sort it out.

That's what I have suggested to him too.
There shouldn't be a problem if you immediately move your finger upon touch. It's just if you don't move, it'll create some threshold in order to the cursor to be movable from the initial position.

Does the multitouch works good when you are not holding the phone in the hand? try putting the phone on a pilliow and try using 5 fingers on the screen with this multitouch tester app and see if it recognize all 5 fingers.
I had the nexus 7 2013 and it had that problem :/

There's actually no problems at all touching the screen. its only when I touch then drag, I need to move my finger greater than 5mm for it to recognise the finger is moving - if moving the finger slow... Watch the video I posted in first post and you understand.
In a game, for example. playing a FPS game like Minecraft - you select the block you want to remove and then you swipe your finger from that block to the next its very jerky, because the pointer does not unlock with small finger movement. takes big movement then its unlocked. once unlocked its fine - the whole time I don't lift my finger from the screen..
So its really annoying playing games - because I have to touch the screen, then swipe to unlock the pointer, then I can aim and shoot at the enemy or remove blocks in minecraft.
Some have said its the game, but you can also try with the stock launcher - going between screens of apps, you swipe left or right, it takes 5mm finger movement before the screen starts to move to the next..
I tried the inbuilt Finger touch sensor tester, and the touch and move finger 5mm is represented as 2 pixel dots - instead of a line. so something is farked up in the software. I have 2 x MI6 (bought another to test) and both seems the same... Xiaomi need to fix...

Well my Mi 6 is on the way from GearBest China and when i will get it i will install the Global Rom and will try to do this test with this app and will see if i have the same problem as you.

Purchased mine on Gearbest aswell (international rom), came with 8.0.2.0 upgradeable to 8.2.2.0, I upgraded and I have not this problem at all.

Maybe they fixed it with the latest update?

I also have Nexus 7 2013. The problem was jittery touch when you do multi-touch. It's kinda different problem.
But the case in Nexus 7 2013, it can be fixed by pushing the fix via ADB.

Same here.
But i think the developers want it.
I think it is a feature, not a bug. For better usebility.

Yes lol, a feature that we don't really want exactly like the notification light new feature which is that it only have one color - white.

Hmmm.. Maybe I'll order the OnePlus5 when its out... and use the MI6 as a spare

I tested this, on a friends Xiaomi Rednote 4, the touch delay wasn't there as far as we could see, so it doesen't seem to a feature of MIUI, maybe it's a bug or something.
It was running MIUI 8.1 I believe.
If it is a bug, you should ask Xiaomi to fix it.
