How to decrease touch sensitivity on rooted SM-T805 - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone.
After buying a stylus, together with palm rejection gloves, I've noticed that the tablet still (barely) registers some of my palm inputs even after wearing 3 gloves. I wanted to know if there's a way to decrease the touch sensitivity on a rooted SM-T805.
Thank you all in advance.

Screen Sensitivity

Hi you Desire owners.
Can you please tell me what the screen sensitivity is like?
Is it smooth? I have large fingers - is the keyboard and the buttons large finger friendly?
I am so used to a stylus just using my fingers would be a change.
Shame HTC dont keep resistive screens.
Cheers

I have fairly bit hands as well and have also come from a stylus based phone (Touch HD) and I have no issues with the screen, it is very sensitive and that takes a bit of getting used to.
The keyboard is very good, I have no issues typing with my thumbs

HTC touch sensitivity

Does anyone know how to increase the sensitivity of HTC desire touch screen? to make it more accessable with a stylus.
You cant use a stylus, the screen works on the capacitance of you finger.
A sausage works
You can use a capacitive stylus - like this one.

[Q] Dashboard mounted N7 touch screen unresponsive

I have a rooted 2013 N7 running 5.0.2 that I recently installed in the dash of my car. During normal (handheld) use my touch screen works OK though it does have some periodic difficulties as seems to be common with this unit. However, when I mount the tablet in my dash, the touch screen is almost completely unresponsive. The tablet is mounted behind my stereo trim bezel so that there is plastic trim piece in contact with the full perimeter of the front glass. I believe the trim piece does not overlap with the LCD screen. Even so, I am assuming this is screwing with the touch responsiveness. When there is a little pressure on the edges of the screen - most of touch is unresponsive. Has anyone run into this problem? Ideas, insight, links to other threads are very appreciated. Thank you.

In your case, there are 2 reasons I know of that interfere with the touch operation: (1) the grounding issue where without holding the tab in your hand would cause unresponsiveness. Easy to test: if you leave the tab on a flat surface without touching it, and it doesn't respond well to touches, you can try multi-fix hacks. It helped in my experience. The battery percentage also affects - the lower it goes, the less responsive it becomes.
If it does respond then (2) the problem is what you've already identified. Any pressure, however slight, on the tab or glass would distort responsiveness on some units. In my experience, something as innocuous as adjusting the angle at which the tab stands on a case makes a difference. Here, I've found no cures but to maintain it at an optimizing angle.
Thank you for the reply. I am not having the grounding issue so it must be pressure on the edges of the screen. I'm still searching for a fix to this without having to redesign my entire mount.

Touch screen response

Hello,
Is it normal that touching screen with fingers works worse than using stylus?
Btw, on the corners there is no response to fingers. Does that mean I have to touch with whole fingertipto make it work? Stylus works perfectly from very first pixel in the corner.

active stylus partially functioning.

So i bought the a50 cause i wanted a bigger phone like the note at a cheap price. Loving the phone, so i decided to spring for an active stylus, the stylus actually works very well on my g6 and dell touchscreen but for some reason the upper half of my a50 isnt very responsive, and where it does respond is only on the edges. If i start a stroke from the bottom of the scren it will follow through to the top, most of the time. But if i start at the top and move down, it only appear towards the bottom off the screen. Tapping is even worse, almost no response on upper half.
I have no magnetic cases, ive tried two a50s, with and without screen protectors. Always the same result. Heres some pictures to help visualize, does anyone have a fix for this?
Scribles represent dragging, dots represent taps.
You could try increasing the touch sensitivity.

Thank you for your response. I should have mentioned, the problem is identicle, with or without touch sensitivity increased. The stylus work on a note 9 perfect as well. Starting to suspect its a software problem with the a50.
