So i'm one of those that gets the annoying ghost-touch / no-touch screen issues.. (happens randomly during the day)

still unsure how much of a hardware/software problem it is but i have found a way to mitigate it so it no longer happens as often if at all

THIS WONT fix your multi-touch problems (intersecting X/Y points, swype issues etc) but it does make using my phone much less frustrating.

this app requires root, and works on cm11s/cm12/cm12.1/oxygen (actually any version above 4.0 should be fine)

What this does (internally):

Every time your display is turned ON it executes:

• shell command "cat /sys/class/input/input0/baseline_test"


• a 50ms vibration to notify the command is done

you can also activate the process manually by just opening the app.

the baseline_test command seems to 'calibrate' the screen touch sensitivity, which helps tremendously in my situation.. and maybe yours, its worth a check.

as always, your mileage may vary.. and here's hoping we could get a real fix for this some day soon (software or not..)

this app was made using Tasker with "Tasker App Factory" (look for it on play), (so simple you could do this yourselves).

and should be ultra light on system resources (if it all)

Have fun.
