    Dots/Circles Appearing under Fingers When Touching Screen

    Hi Guys,

    I'm pretty new to ipad's, but I recently jailbreaked mine and it is working great, I installed displayout and a few themes but nothing else and today when I used my ipad I had dots appear under my fingers when I touch the screen, like it's showing me where the touch points are being detected.

    Not sure why it is doing this, is there any way I can turn it off?

    I suddenly have this too. Haven't done anything except tried to sync the iPad but had the calendar go off which doesn't allow the sync to continue. then I now have these (grey to white) circles appear when i touch a part of the screen.

    I have tried a reboot, hard reset, to no avail.

    I have a 64gb, 3G, 3.2.1 jailbroken with Spirit. Has been working flawlessly till now.

    There's themes/addons in Cydia that do that. Are both of you quite positive you didn't install a theme that included it?

    Finally figured it out. It is under 'Settings', then 'Display Out' settings.

    In there you can select if you want to make the touches visible or not.

    My kids must been playing and somehow got in there to change the settings, which isn't too hard to figure out....now.
