Is it possible to disable touch screen function of...

Tomorrow I will buy a Nokia smartphone to my wife and she likes non-touch screen though among the available models I only liked some phones that are of touch and type style.
I was wondering whether it would be possible to turn off the touch screen. I know she would use exclusively the keypad but the availability of the touch screen, especially when touches mistakenly, can cause some problems.

You can also think of touch and type devices like Nokia Asha series nokia 303 etc.....these devices can be operated via either keypad or from screen
while on higher end of segment Nokia E7 is great smartphone with its physical qwerty keyboard

  • Windows 8.1 32bit Autounattend.xml, disabling touch screen functionality

    This is quite a strange problem and I do not have the slightest clue why this is happening.
    I am trying to make an unattended Windows 8.1 Pro32 bit install for a touch screen PC. I have made an answer file which appears to work correctly (it skips all user interaction during the install). The issue is that when using this Autounattend.xml to install
    Windows the device stops responding to touch. The touch function works throughout the install process (so I know the screen is not broken) but once it has completed the install and loads the OS for the first time there is no touch function available.
    I have removed the Autounattend file from the disk image and installed the OS manually. Touch function works fine once it has completed without the use of an unattend file, which is why I'm fairly sure it is the xml file causing the issue.
    I have been able to make unattend.xml files for Windows 8.1 64bit as we as Windows 7 32 & 64bit but cannot make it work with Windows 8.1 32bit. I have made these .xml files using the Windows System Image Manager, I have made sure I have newest version
    downloaded and installed.
    Is this a common issue with Windows 8.1 32bit? 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm open to trying anything at this point.
    Below is my Autounattend file:

    Hello TwistedDTM,
    Based on my knowledge, I can't find out that this Autounattend.xml has configuration to block the touch screen.
    I want to confirm if you use the Windows 8.1 x86 image to create the catalog file.
    Best regards,

  • Is it possible to disable the screen saver for a certain app?

    Is it possible to disable the screen saver just while a certain application is running?
    The app seems to crash when the screen saver comes on.
    Just so you know, application I'm using is Hogwasher; a newsgroup reader.

    Not really. Just disable it manually when you run that application. Then, send off a bug report to the app's developer and tell him to update it for the latest Tiger. Alternatively, use another newsgroup reader.

  • How can I disable touch screen for HP Pavillion DV3-2310ea

    Howdy
    The touchscreen on this laptop can be annoying - even though I've reduced the sensitivity, living in a cat rescue home is challenging to say the least when a strand of cat fur gets on the screen or when a tail brushes the screen, not to mention a cat sneeze -_-
    I've been looking around for solutions and I found one stating unchecking the box in "Pen and Touch" in the control panel - however on this laptop there's no box to uncheck  
    I can't find any settings to disable touch screen, so would anyone know if there's a driver I can temporaraily disable (I'd like to KEEP the option to enable the touch screen - just to show off to friends ) 
    Thanks for your time - Gypsy
    P.S I'm sorry if this topic has already been discussed I've just joined to ask this question 

    Hello,
    Would like to leave my contibution on this post:
    In order to disable the touchscreen, you have to go to control panel, select Tablet PC settings, then select Pen and touch and do what the print screens below show you:
    Let me know if this sorted out your question.

  • Feature to disable touch screen when pen is detected is no longer available in windows 7

    In N-trig drivers  with windows vista there was an option where one could select the option to disable the touch input when pen in near the screen.  That feature is no longer available when I installed new n-trig drivers in win7.
    I use my tablet a lot to take notes. But with dual mode on it detects input where I rest my palm on the screen to write. Every time I have to go and disable touch input completely before I start writing and enable after I finish. 
    I there any way to enable auto mode with Windows 7 n-trig drivers?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Thanks for your reply.
    I talked about this with HP tech support and they don't know anything about it. I don't even know whether they are qualified enough to provide support. They were just blaming the problems on Microsoft and N-Trig. I knew the problem is with the drivers and I wanted them to let N-Trig know that people like us are waiting to the Auto feature. But instead of considering my complaint they hung up on me not once but twice.

  • How do I disable touch screen temporarlily in command promt?

    I had been Starting a Command prompt, and here's what I have So far
    @echo off
    title YELLOW_BEAR
    mode 166,68
    :BEGIN
    color 6E
    echo ITS ME
    shutdown.exe /r /c "IT'S ME" /t 60
    (disabling mouse, touch screen, ect. line would be here)
    goto GOLDEN_BEAR
    :GOLDEN_BEAR
    "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Videos\[FILENAME].mp4"
    TIMEOUT 20
    pause
    goto GOLDEN_BEAR
    I have one teeny question- Is there Any way I can add on to this so it can also disable ALL user actions? (touching the screen, typing, mouse pad) BUT, for only temporary purposes so it can be enabled again when restarted? (note line #7, "shutdown.exe
    /r /c "IT'S ME" /t 30)
    so it would be like this-
    user clicks on prompt
    user sees ITS ME on command prompt window
    user is notified windows will shutdown, with comment of IT'S ME
    [FILENAME].mp4 (around 20 seconds, note "TIMEOUT 20") would play, user cannot pause because off  
             all actions would be disabled
    after 20 seconds, [FILENAME].mp4 would play again, in fact 2 more times ,total of three the user.        
            not being able to do anything], until  it restarts and the
            touch screen would be working again
    by the way, I run windows RT 8.1 on surface 1

    Open it in iTunes and restore your device.

  • Is it possible to disable Export connections functionality (Connections view) in SQL developer?

    Hi,
    because of some security reasons, there is a need to disable export connections functionality in SQL developer.
    Is it possible to do this somehow?
    Many thanks,
    Dejan

    Not that I know of.
    Even if we did, they are still stored in a file that most of your users would be able to access.
    You can however disable the ability to save passwords.
    And exporting connections now do not include passwords by default, although you can include them if you supply an additional password.

  • HP Stream 7 5701 Tablet - disable touch screen for toddler

    I have a toddler who likes to watch iTunes movies on the HP Stream 5701 Tablet but he touches the screen and stops the movie.  Is there a simple and easy way to disable the touch screen and let the movie continue to play?

    You don't disable the touch screen persay.. it simply disables buttons except sleep, and the only control on the screen is a box to unlock the screen (The movie is in full screen playback). The unlock button can be as simple as a push button, to something as complex as a gesture. So the kid is free to put his hands all over the screen with little fear of stoping or exiting the movie.

  • Brand New Carbon X1 loses Touch Screen function!!!!

    Hi there
    I just purchased Carbon X1 touch screen version for less than a week and all of a sudden I found out the touch screen was not working any more.
    I checked the system property and it shows "No pen or touch input is available for this display". That's totally wierd because when the time I received this product it worked very well. 
    I also checked the device manager. It shows "
    Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45)
    To fix this problem, reconnect this hardware device to the computer.
    I tried almost every method mentioned about touch screen malfunction and none of them worked. I even refresh this laptop and this issue still exists. 
    Could some one here help me figure out this problem? I don't want send my laptop back to lenovo because I just purchased for less than one week and I'm really need it now.

    Can someone tell me if this is not under warranty?

  • How do I restrict access to touch screen functions on M401dn printer

    I have just received a Laserjet pro (M401dn) printer for use in a classroom. It is now set up for network printing but is there any way I can stop students changing settings like IP address from the touch screen console. Our previous printers (P2055dn) had all the settings accessible but through an unattractive 2 line LED console. The new printer with its colour touch screen is just too tempting for inquisitive fingers.

    Put some duct tape over it.
