Weird touchscreen issues anyone? - Galaxy Tab 8.9 General

Do you guys happen to have weird touchscreen issues like once in a while using only one finger registers as a pinch or simply swiping up/down and then pausing causes a long tap? Or a long tap registering as a normal tap? And then if turning off the screen and then back on, this behaviour going away?

The only weird thing I get on my 7320T is that if I hover a finger over the screen, then it registers the finger (without actually touching).

effective but not elegant solution - talk back
I Mute my n7. Then turn on talk back (settings>accessibility). Took me awhile to figure out how to do the gestures. Two fingers for scrolling (important when you are in the settings menu trying to turn talk back off You can even still use the touch screen while reading without having to worry about touching something accidentally. You just have to hold the page for a moment where you want to click, and then double tap the screen. Same goes for all the buttons you need to press to get into and out of your eBook. It even remembers where you held last so you can just double tap anywhere after the first time. The only things that don't require a hold then double tap are keyboards and keypads.

Touchscreen sensitivity

Can someone try:
Download YAMTT (yet another multitouch test) app
Go to touch tester
Put one finger on the screen, then wiggle/move it slowly
On my unit when I do this, small movements are not tracked instantly. I need to move my finger a lot before the movement gets tracked. I notice this when playing FPS games like MC5, it's really hard to aim. Also when using the brightness slider, it's hard to make small adjustments.
Anyone else got this issue?
TIA!
Just downloaded.
Works fine on mine.
Got a bit problem with right side of the screen tho. Sometimes when I try to press "Send" button (eg. Messangers and different inputs with send button close to the edge) it doesn't recognize press and I have to press like twice/3 times.
Mine is perfectly fine
Here's a video of the issue:

OTA 3.2.6 seems to have fixed this issue. Awesome

Anyone else have touchscreen problems?

The screen on the S8 is weird. Very often when sliding the finger it will touch random locations. Sliding right might cause a slide to the left. Sliding down might cause a single press in a random location. It happens a lot. And I have tested it with completely not touching the edges of the phone so it is literally just the one finger in a constant motion with no lifting at all during the touches. Anyone else have this? It's literally annoying enough to return the phone
I'm experiencing a screen issue too. Not exactly the same as yours, but an issue nonetheless. When installing an app via package installer, tapping "install" in portrait mode is no responsive. It's only when I rotate to landscape mode that the screen responds. Very frustrating.

screen wake up

Hi,
Im wondering if there is any option to wake up screen when locked other than using sleep button , i mean something like double tap the screen or touching the finger print sensor...
Thanks
Latter works.
Inset up pick up to wake and face recognition swipe to unlock. So whenever I pick up the phone I see the notifications and can swipe them away without unlocking the phone.
Awesome

Pixel Stand - Touch, Gestures, Double tap to wake odd behaviour

Has anyone had an issue where the phone is unresponsive to touch when on the pixel stand ? For example, swiping and gestures are unresponsive and take multiple attempts to work. Selecting an app may take multiple times to register the touch selection. Double tape to wake rarely works. I thought initially maybe it was the tempered glass screen protector but as soon as i take phone off the pixel stand all the issues go away and everything works as per normal.
Any ideas ??
