After installing a couple of games and doing a soft reset...my screen keyboard is showing at the top of the screen. When it does it covers everything up. I've gone into the settings and there doesn't seem to be anything there to deal with that.
Anybody have any ideas?
Turn it over!

So after installing the WM6 ROM Core 2.0 and using it for a while i started to get this white screen, after using it for about a month, that would keep on appearing if unless i had the keyboard slightly slid out. So i decided to switch to Faria's Pro ROM Kitchen hoping it would fix it, but it didn't. This white screen that keeps popping up covers the entire screen and nothing i do seems to make it stop. This screen is really annoying especially when trying to watch movies and when coming out of wakeup and receiving phone calls, as it covers the whole screen not allowing me to see. Is there a way to fix this so this white screen does not keep coming up. I would really appreciate the Help.
What do you mean exactly by "white screen coming up" ???
Does your screen turn blanc or is there a window popping up?
If you can do the following without having too much trouble with backing up and stuff like that: install you shipped ROM for a while and see if it still appears!
Other than that I guess there is a hardware problem!
Well its a blank screen that covers up the whole screen its not like a window the whole screen just turns white. I did install the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM when i switched to Faria's WM6 ROM, but it still was there for the short time i had it.
Do you have your phone passworded? That causes a white screen to come up just after you wake your phone if you don't have it set to ask for the password upon wakeup. It usually goes away after about half a second but maybe yours is sticking there for some reason. Try turning off your password and see if that fixes it. You may not want to keep your phone without password protection but at least you'll know whats causing the white screen. You might also try changing the "prompt if device unused for" to a longer duration and see if that maybe helps.
well i dont have a password set, so i dont think it is the password, the thing is that it doesnt only come up after wakeup, if the device does not have the keyboard slid out slightly it will come up just after about 40 secs. Sometimes it comes up right in the middle of me doing something like changing some options. If i have the keyboard slid out all the way it will do the same thing. It only does not come up if the first rows of keys at the bottom of the keyboard are visible. Has this happened to anyone else? is there a way to fix this?
Someone help PLEASE.
Sounds like your phone is undecided whether it wants to go into portrait or landscape mode..
What do you mean? if my phone has the keyboard closed then after about 20-40 secs the entire screen will turn white, then when i slide the keyboard out just slightly the screen goes away, and as long as i have the keyboard slightly slid out the screen wont turn white. I am thinking of sending my MDA in to get a Wing, does anyone know if i am allowed to do this since my MDA is acting werid?
After hanging up from a phone call the top left corner of my screen was really bright. There were two vertical lines down the screen and the screen was transparent and flickering. I could still see my home screen and the screen was functional. I restarted the phone and it was still acting up. Only after turning the phone off for a few mins did it stop. Has anyone else experienced this or have any ideas on what would cause it? I haven't had any issues with the phone, no drops or anything. Currently running aokp with matrix kernel.

I had this issue too. My phone just arrived today. In my case the problem occurred after power cycling the phone (trying to get the WiFi to connect.. grrrr) The boot process was fine but once I got to the launcher my screen was flickering like a strobe light. I tried to power off and back on and it still happened. I didn't give it several minutes like you did so I'm not sure if it would have gone away. Since I hadn't really configured the phone yet I simply did a factory reset and it was fine. Seems to be a software issue. I hope it doesn't happen again but if it does I'll see if just leaving it off for a while helps. I hope so because I don't want to have to factory reset all the time!

Hi guys, I have experienced a number of screen relates issues on my D800 since the Lollipop upgrade. I am pure stock, took the upgrade OTA from ATT.
1. Knock on stopped working. Knock off works OK. I tried all of the suggestions online, update touch firmware, etc. but still no help. This is no big deal since I can use the back button to wake up the phone.
2. I noticed scrolling was unresponsive in Chrome but ignored it because I thought it might be me.
3. I was out and on the phone and I noticed I could not hear her well all of a sudden and then the call got disconnected. I tried to put my PIN in to unlock the phone but that area of the screen was totally unresponsive to touch. I could enter the numbers in the second row of the grid but there is a 1 in my pin and that would not register. I restarted a bunch of times which I had to do only with buttons because I could not click 'OK' on the screen to confirm the restart. I got a screen on the phone saying my screen was unresponsive and this is how to answer calls only with the buttons etc.
I got home and used by OTG mouse connection to enter my pin and navigate the phone. I did a factory reset which I had never done before. The responsiveness seems better now. There seems to be one section of the screen that is unresponsive, right near the middle. I can't click on any of the icons in the second row from the bottom. I can get to the notification shade which I don't think I could do before.
I am attaching an image of a memo where I just ran my finger up and down the screen without lifting it. You can see the dead area.
Has anyone had this problem or knows of any solution? Thanks very much.

I just RMA'd it. It probably is the same problem you had but I am pretty sure I am still under warranty so I just sent it in.
I have a Moto G4 that has had the touch screen become very erratic lately. This issue appeared shortly after a factory reset. The phone is stock, recently OTA updated to NPJ25.93-14.7. It frequently freezes and won't respond to touches of apps or the home/back/recent buttons, and won't side scroll to the next screens properly. Sometimes random apps launch on their own without any touch, and if you try to quit them with the back button they keep relaunching. The problem is intermittent.
I activated "Show Taps" in Developer Options and when the problem is happening there is a tap dot near the lower right side of the screen. It bounces up and down a little bit and vibrates sometimes. When this dot is visible tapping on anything else like app icons or buttons usually has no effect, however the taps are shown on the screen. If I hit the power button to make the screen go black it will sometimes recover when I reopen the display, other times it takes a reboot.
Wondering if it's a hardware issue, a guy at a Verizon store who seemed to know more than most said it was a faulty digitzer--it's seeing touches where there are none. I've replaced displays successfully before, would just like to have a confidence level that the digitzer is really bad before doing that, as opposed to a software or other hardware issue. Any ideas about problems that might cause this problem, like other hardware or a corrupted OTA? Seems very hardware-ish to me, but I'm no expert.
I have Drive links to a couple of short videos on the symptoms, can send links. Much appreciate any insights.
Mine has that issue as well. It will spam the 9 key on the unlock screen or anything in that spot if an app is open or what is on that spot at the home screen. I have to double unlock the phone to fix it. I guess turning the screen on and back off resets it for that session. But it's mostly every time the screen goes dark and comes back up I have to turn the screen off and back on to use the phone.
I had a similar problem and was able to send it in under warranty and get a replacement phone
G4 Digitizer or ghost touch
Apparently this is called Ghost Touch issue, and affects many phones. One solution tried is to disable Battery Optimization for System UI and Google Now Launcher in Settings>Battery>Battery Optimization. That seemed to cure it for a week or so, but the problem returned today. I can sometimes recover form it by hitting the power button to blank the screen and then reopen. Other times it requires a reboot. I see all kinds of alleged solutions out there from dimming the brightness to removing tempered glass protector to using a slow charger, but those don't seem like real fixes but workarounds (if they even work at all). Any other ideas?
Just got my Mi A1 today. Powered it on with the printed screen cover, noticed it wasn't responding to touch so I removed it and immediately put on the included screen protector.
Still unable to hit LET'S GO or anything on the screen, including the bottom buttons. Occasionally, the Vision Settings will highlight itself and the bottom buttons may randomly blink.
Is it possible the screen cover is somehow preventing tap input before setup is complete? Seems insane to me, but figured I'd ask. What are my other options. I'm going to try flashing the stock rom and see if that does anything.
Am I missing something, or is this screen just DOA? I haven't put my sim in yet either, but I don't see how that would affect the touch.
Took off the screen cover and it's still borked. Can't tap anything. DOA screen I guess, nothing to see here, returning.
Definitely Doa .
