The reports of the touchscreen problems are going back a year. They reported that the touchscreen showed ghost touches or just didn’t respond to the touches when they were typing fast. While Oneplus tried to fix the problem with multiple software fixes during the past several months, it didn’t work and the users kept complaining about the touchscreen issues. A little more than a month ago Oneplus announced that they were working on a permanent fix for the problem, and it looks they finally resolved the problem with the new touchscreen driver version from synaptics.

The latest CyanogenMod 12.1 nightly that was published on the 15th of May seems to fix the problem, according to users commenting on various Reddit threads throughout the internet. Here we’ve an example from Reddit user liberta0407:

“Holy s***. I didn’t realise how bad my screen was until I installed this kernel. I could never type fast as the keyboard would press the wrong letters, wasn’t too noticeable but things just didn’t feel right.. Amazing now though! Let’s see if higher temperatures change anything…”

While the problems seems to be fixed by the new driver, many users are still slightly skeptical that the nightly contains a fix for the whole problem. A lot of users reported those issues when it got hot outside, so we’ll need to wait until it gets hot again for a confirmation. If you like flashing on your Oneplus One, then head to the link below to grab the latest nightly with the fix included.
