    I'm using a Adonit Jot style stylus on a Android phone. The see-through tip is nice, unfortunately the signal it generates is weaker compared to that of a finger, so the default sensitivity setting tweaked for finger touch isn't appropriate and I get broken lines every now and then. Is there any way I can tweak that?

    This is a AOSP-based 4.4.4 ROM and I have root access.


    I'm aware of some build.prop tweaks floating around the interweb but they don't seem to decrease the actual threshold for an anomaly to be registered, only change the behavior after it is registered.
