Root Screen Fix Finally :)

[scerini]

Don't make theses changes unless you know what you're doing
We have liftoff, Samsung Drools Scerini RULES
Get rom toolbox and go to the build.prop Tweaks change LCD density to 157 and max events to 241 then go back to the home screen and drag and drop your icons to you hearts content .
I'm doing complete 360's dragging and dropping icons over and over let me know and thanks if I help you

*156 and below is kind of sketchy on LCD density and things can get fuzzy on you
*164 and up is just going to make your screen almost like zoomed in and make more problems you don't want probably also returns the touchscreen bug back at around 180
*Max events you can kinda play around with depending on how much stuff you have running on your phone
*You may need to revert the changes back to stock to make google playstore recognize your phone as compatible

Will do!!!
where are the "max events"?

 

[scerini]

Will do!!!
where are the "max events"?

In with the build.prop tweaks
It goes: LCD Density:157 or preferred
Ring Delay:1000 or preferred setting
VW Heap:48m or preferred
Max Events:241 or preferred

 

[DMajor239]

This is what I see, I dont see any "max events"

 

[scerini]

hmmm well i have the stock rom, and rooted, and actually using an adw launcher shortcut from Rom Toolbox i don't know why your screen is different hopefully someone can help us out I'll look to see what else i can compare to our settings to find out why it's not showing up.

Edit: Let me know to of any changes you have made to your phone or changes you haven't made that i made so i can backtrack

 

[DMajor239]

I'm on the stock ROM too. I haven't really messed with it much. I might flash to stock.

Thanks alot man, did you get all the options when you pulled up the build.prop tweaks in Rom Toolbox? if so what changes have you made to your phone mod wise?
Edit: I see the LCD settings are added in on Shevron Roms now and the CM7 Super Alpha Beta For Test Only is up too

I have what you have.

 

[scerini]

I have taken away and restored to when i first got the phone and still pulled up these settings.

I don't know what you've changed in your phone D but you'll have to take a look or hopefully I'll be able to track this down or find a loophole

 

[casperischinky]

Thanks alot man What Rom are you running, did you get all the options when you pulled up the build.prop tweaks in Rom Toolbox? if so what changes have you made to your phone mod wise?

yeah it pulled up all the options u spoke of in ur post and i set them as u said,i am currently running prime rom 3.5,i have not did too much modding to it,just flashed it and put all my apps and BS on it lol.But i do know this i have tried all the roms that are available for the TU and no matter which one i was using the screen was a issue i hated moving things on my screen,but now it seems to be way easier bro ty very much.

Scerini, could you post a copy of your build.prop after the tweaks are done with rom toolbox? I would like to see the actual changes it makes. Thanks

Sure thing.

how would i get that for you man?

 

[bads3ctor]

how would i get that for you man?

You could use a file manager for rooted phones and copy /system/build.prop to the sdcard. Then copy it to your PC.
Or "adb pull /system/build.prop" would work too.

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=242

 

[scerini]

Alright is this right i hope if not let me know


windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=241

so what does this mean? did you still need the rest?

 

[scerini]

Hey DMajor you should be alright just changing LCD Density at least see some improvement, are you on Sprint or Boost?

 

[DMajor239]

Yes I saw some improvement but its not much...my only guess is maybe because I tried flashing that moto launcher to my phone not know in it was only for ics (silly me). I'all flash back to stock than reroot tomorrow.

hey my max events only go to 240 so what to i need do

 

[KydDynoMyte]

This doesn't seem to be working for me. There might be some improvement, but it's pretty random as it has always been. I had to manually add max events and I don't have ring delay. I've tried all kinds of combinations of higher & lower density & max events. I do notice it seems to be a lot dependent on how good my initial touch is. If touch an icon with a good part of my index finger print it usually locks pretty good. If I use the tips of my finger or any part of my thumb it's more random. If I get that good initial lock on an icon I can slide it to just the tip of my finger and it works pretty good.

Not sure you stock rooted? More phone infor try uinstall and reinstall Rom toolbox. You should see some improvement with just the LCD density change,

Works great for me! I don't why you had to manually add max events and ring delay doesn't concern for what were trying to accomplish with this so that's fine. I would stay within the ranges I mentioned other wise it won't work and there will be a worse bug if your not careful!

I'm using all 10 fingers and all 10 toes and dragging icons so let me know how I can help you

I'm running shevron 5.1 rooted of course.. I'm using the lite version of romtoolbox and changing the settings to exactly the numbers you prescribe and not noticing any difference.. I'm going to open buildprop on my comp and see if changes are being applied.

Edit: changes are definitely applied... since screen density is 160 by default Im going to leave it there and drop max events some more see if I can get a positive result..
