If you use any of the modern tablets (for example, running on the Android OS), then sooner or later you will come across the fact that your touch screen will deteriorate sensitivity.
This can happen for various reasons: the settings may go wrong as a result of prolonged use of the device or after the application of specific or poor-quality programs. This problem will be solved by the calibration of the Android screen.
Why is this procedure needed and what does it give?
The initial calibration of any touch device is done immediately after production, even before the tablet goes on sale. But over time, due to numerous touches of different strengths, these settings may go wrong, the phone’s sensitivity will drop.
Calibration of the Android screen will help return the sensor to normal sensitivity, as well as customize the phone to the specifics of your pressing. In addition, you can change the desired touch sensitivity: for example, if it is more convenient for you to use light touches, then “inform” your tablet about it.
How is
Android screen calibrated
?
This process does not require any special knowledge or additional skills in using the tablet, because the Android operating system has a built-in calibration utility.
To start it, open the main menu of the system, then select "Settings". Scroll to the Display line, the horizontal menu that opens, tap it, and then launch the Horizontal Calibration application.
Now put the phone on a flat surface and do not touch until the system notifies you of the successful completion of the process.
In the same menu there is an item “Calibration of the gyroscope”. This function is useful if the device does not respond correctly to a change in its position: for example, when turning sideways, it does not go into horizontal or, conversely, vertical mode.
But these functions, although called calibration, do not affect the sensitivity of the touch screen. To change these settings, you will need to install third-party applications that calibrate. But be careful! In the case of incorrect settings or because of errors in their program code, you can come to the conclusion that the phone will cease to respond to touch at all!
If this still happened, do not panic. Android screen calibration can be done in another emergency way. To do this, you need to simultaneously hold down three buttons: increase volume, turn on and "Home". If you do everything right, a utility program will start, with the help of which the settings will be rolled back to the factory settings.
Is iPhone screen calibration possible ?
Although tablets and phones with an "apple" are just as prone to problems with the sensor, unlike the "Android", they do not provide for manual calibration of the touchscreen. It is made only during the assembly of the device, and is corrected, unfortunately, only by buying a new screen, by the way, very expensive. Therefore, try to protect your favorite device, especially its screen.
