1520 Screen Sensitivity Problems Fixed?

[Mark Hanley]

Last night there were several updates to apps and system settings. One of them had something to do with the display for Lumia devices, but it updated so quickly, I didn't see any info about it. This morning, my 1520 scrolling on the home page is flawless, even scrolling while trying to make it click. Has anyone else noticed this? Keeping my fingers crossed!

I've noticed that it IS better... but definitely not completely fixed. Getting closer......

I had the problem occur about 10%-20% of the time but the latest glance update for me (the one that lets you add additional info such as calendar to glance) has fixed the problem COMPLETELY in the OS. I only notice the very ocassional accidental tap in certain apps (one or two of my apps) and it happens so infrequently it really isn't a problem.

It may as well have gone away as far as I'm concerned and this just reinforces my belief that it was always a software problem mostly involving glance.

I am glad Nokia is doing something about it. They wouldn't let such a thing remain broken. Cyan will be the cherry on top, making the experience even better.

Mine started 3 weeks ago. I noticed it off and on over those 2 weeks. The past week I haven't had it once.

​At first I thought it was from being in my pocket, but now I feel that it was a software bug.

Does everyone with this issue have a screen protector on their display? I've noticed that when swiping around the display, that when my finger hangs due to the screen protector I have on mine, that is when it accidentally taps something it shouldn't be.

I have experienced the inadvertent taps and do not have a screen protector installed. That said, the tap problems have been greatly reduced lately, perhaps due to recent system updates to display, touch, and glance.

Hi Prashant !!

Today I have visited Nokia Care and explained them the problem. They have inspected it and as usual reinstalled OS and asked me to keep an eye on the Touch and use it extensively. I will use the Scroll more than I have used it before and see if problem reappears it yes then I will visit Nokia Care again. At least today there is almost no problem... Let's see. I will update you.

Other than this Phone is really awesome !!

I have Red Colour. Till now the phone is fine. Problem is not entirely solved but the frequency is reduced by 90%. I will wait for 3-4 days.

I've never had this problem, and I have a screen protector. Have you adjusted the screen sensitivity?

Model is not replaced, only OS is reinstalled.

Mine is definitely not fixed. It happens on a daily basis. Here's a video of what mine does. Not my phone but the same thing happens to mine as what happens to his phone:

After several updates, I would say my problem was entirely fixed. I don't come across any annoying sensitivity problem by far.
