Unreliable touch response in Android #2027

Closed adriancd closed 12 years ago

adriancd commented 12 years ago

I had noticed an improvement in touch responsiveness in iphone with JQM beta & phonegap but the responsiveness using the same files in Android 2.3.3 on a Galaxy S is still hit and miss. If i remove all the page content and just have a long page of plain text then scrolling to touch is very precise and just like a native app.

Soft touches are often ignored when the page is stationary but a stronger touch will usually be registered and once the page starts to move then the response works well This happens on pages with lists and non-list content

My app is built with the multipage format, about 6 different pages are held within one index.html but the same occurs with just 2 pages inside index.html.

Its quite annoying for a user trying to scroll and nothing happens

Can you re-test on the latest build: jquerymobile.com/test

adriancd commented 12 years ago

I think that helped. Using the latest test js and css in my app, the first scroll touch usually triggers a scroll in the page while the previous version was more hit and miss

The most noticeable problem is still when a page has scrolled to the bottom and i want to scroll back to the top. Eventually it responds and once the page is moving then touch response is perfect. The repeated touches trying to start the scroll are not good experience. I can see buttons in the list changing colour so the touch is being registered.

Its hard to know if this is phonegap or JQM or a mixture of the two

thanks for looking at it

In lists, there is still a known issue that the hover state is seen when dragging. Is that what you're referring to? ANyway, it seems like these are mostly existing issues so I'm going to close this issue. Thanks!
