Touch Zoom Scrolls Down Page Instead of Selecting?

[Vitticeps]

For me it is actually scrolling, and I attribute that to a minute flick that is imperceptible to me but obvious to a computer. The 'flick' gesture sensitivity could be dialed down a bit imo.

It's not a technique issue it is a known bug, been talked about since day one over at HoFo.

Sounds like we are looking at two very similar issues then. Mine is indeed scrolling down, and I can stop it with another tap. I have never seen it just instantly flash to the bottom of a page.

Happens to me, but not too much. One time I had it on my table and had steady hands while using it when it happened. Never occurred to me it was thinking I used a flick. It feels like a bug to me, but isn't bad enough to outweigh the phone being as awesome as it is.

It's a technique issue, not a hardware or software issue. What you (we) are doing is called a Flick, by accident. From the Droid manual:

Wrong. Anyone posting here knows the difference as well as anyone who has used an iPhone or iTouch. This is not a user error issue.

This here aint no iPhone or iTouch. Get over yourself. Your not as good with your finger as you think you are

Why are you defending a tech issue that you obviously have a problem with also? Does it make you feel good when you talk down to others?

be careful you are only touching it with one finger at a time, if you have two fingers on the screen it will get confused and jumps between the two fingers if one slightly rises off the screen

Sure, why not, it seems to work for you :icon_ poke:

Relax, my friend...it's just a phone.
