Hi, my first post here.
So I installed the latest OS update today morning on my S20 FE 5G and after that I have experienced strange touch screen or keyboard issues. When ever I try to write something with my keyboard it just lags or I have severe misspellings. The keyboard frequently doesn't recognize when I press the letter or it writes the same letter two or three times. It's very frustrating!
I have read on another forum users suffering the same issues. Anybody here have same problems?
I have rebooted the phone and changed the keyboard without success. I tested a Touchscreen testing app and it shows the actual touchscreen works very well with no issues. I didn't have any problems before installing the latest update. Any ideas what to do next?

You just described what have been driving me crazy since the last update.
I like to type fast and having to go back to fix all the typos and misses is slowing me down a lot trying to fix all that mess.
I hope they fix it soon.

I did a cache wipe, repaired apps and changed keyboards but nothing helped.

I hope it gets more votes so they fix it a soon as possible.

I have the same issue on my S20FE after the update. Need a fix soon!

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue. Can you try heading to Settings > Display > Touch Sensitivity > On, to see if this helps? Also, go to Settings > Accessibility > Interaction and Dexterity > Tap Duration > Off > Ignore Repeated Touches > On.

Thanks a lot for these suggestions, I tried it and first impressed looks very promising! Cheers

Thanks AndrewL for your effort. 'Ignore repeated touches' setting helped a bit.
Touch Sensitivity was already on. Still having issues with keyboard which doesn't recognize all touches.
October update which I installed today didn't change anything.
