JasJam screen responds to "ghost" taps!

The touch screen responds to continuous taps even when I don't tap it. When the keyboard is slid out, the start menu keeps on popping as if the start button on screen is being tapped. When keyboard is slid inside (device is closed), the device behaves as if the OK button (the "X" on top right) is being tapped continuously. Due to this, I can't open any program. (As soon as a program is opened, the "X" button on top right is automatically clicked and I reach Home screen again!
I uploaded a video about this mal-functioning of device:

I have already:
1. Alligned screen
2. Hard reset device (Left and Right softkeys + Reset button)
3. Updated ROM and hard reset device
but of no use! Please help.
I haven't heard of a software problem causing what you're seeing on your phone. And a hard reset should have cleared that if this was the case.
Do you have a screen protector applied? If so then make sure it doesn't reach under the cover round the screen. Maybe some dirt got in between the screen edge and the cover?
If the phone is under warranty then just take it to the service centre.
maybe you have a warped case...the flexing might cause the touchscreen bezel to make contact with the screen. it may flex differently when opened/closed.
what happens if the slide is 1/2 open?

This is the most likely explanation and there was an identical case reported in this forum somewhere.

Even when its half open, the OK ("X" on top right) keeps clicking.
I'm using the same case that came with JasJam. Have attached a screen protector to the screen. Could that be the cause of problem?
I contacted imate support. They asked me to send the device. Hopefully, the problem should be solved...

before you send it in, remove the screen protector and try it again. even if it doesn't work, i wouldn't send it in w/the screen protector on anyway...
Wow! Seems the device has problems with heating up! Found this thread:

Solution: Send it back!
I had to send it back to service center. They replaced the main board! The device seems to be working fine now.

Screen alignment or touch screen replacement ?

Hi..
I bought a Vodafone V1605 ( HTC Tytn ) from ebay... the auction description indicated some alignment problems that could be resolved by screen re-alignment...
But when i got the package i found that the problem is worse than that... as you can see in the picture ( http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/4319/tytnscreenul8.jpg ) the top-right of the screen seems to be with problems.... I tries to draw several horizontal lines... and in the top-right part of the screen i got some waves...
I'm thinking about returning the phone... but can this be resolved by purchasing a new touch-screen ? I've seen that buying a replacing touch-screen is not very expensive....
Best regards,
A new touch screen might help. What also is a known issue is the screws at the back of the screen. Try to tighten these it helped for some guys allready.
I replaced my touch screen after i cracked it and now i can't get it to align at all.
I click anywhere on the screen and it thinks it's a click in the top left of the screen as the start menu opens up.
Haven't been able to find anyone to answer my posts for help either.
If there is dirt on the edges of the screen (between screen and cover) it can cause alignment problems as well. I had to recalibrate mine several times a day at some point as dirt would move and press different locations, biasing the digitizer. I got tired of it, dismantled the phone, took the LCD out, cleaned it as well as the inside of the case, and put it back together. No more issues so far.

Had exactly the same problem (and solution) for the screen alignment problem of my Xperia X1. I removed a tiny plastic piece (most likely a leftover from production process) which stuck between the metal frame and the touch screen. After that I could easily align the touch screen and have no alignment problems anymore.
Be careful to not break the screen - I used a thin sewing needle and tweezers to remove the plastic piece.

unresponsive touchscreen

My HTC diamond 2 is not responsive to touch screen capability. The buttons work, and the screen itself is showing the main program. I tried the soft reset several times, and a hard reset - both didn't work.
Please advise. Thank you!
you are so lucky as me,... i'm going to send it now to the SAT
I had the same issue where the "blob" appeared and my screen became unresponsive.
I had to use a piece of selotape to "pull apart" the top and the screen which got it back for me but HTC are collecting the device to sort out the issue long-term

infinity loop of screen alignment

Hi everyone! im new to the forum So Ello everyone))) I,v had my wizard fr a month now and it was fine untill screen alignment become bad so i press on button and button next to it opened. Because of this i have clicked on Screen Align to align the screen but it started to loop (( dont know why because touch screen it self works perfectly. So what i supposed to do to align my screen? im using my phone by keyboard now because i just cant press any button on screen because it needs alignment. THX to anyone who has read this.
The wizard doesn't like being kept in a pants pocket. If you press with your finger firmly, running it all around the edge of the screen, that might cure the temporary insanity. Otherwise, set it aside (not in your pocket) for several minutes and try again. I got a leather belt case for mine to cure this issue.
If I'm guessing right, the first problem was that the touchscreen seemed to be very weird, so you tried to re-align it, and it always fails.
noup the problem was that i have bought the phone about 3 weeks ago it was working but when i tried screen alignment it just started to loop. I pressed it about 50 times(them 5 crosses) i dont know what to do (( because screen alignment now is crap (to exit screen alignment i need to get off battery and put it back)

Screen becomes unresponsive to touch frequently

I've searched a good bit and wasn't able to find any information regarding the exact problem I'm having.
Bought a used G6 for starters
No water damage indicated by the sticker
The phone works great on the home screen and app drawer
I turned on dev mode to show touches
When you're in the camera it will stop responding to touches, you can still take pictures using the side buttons. The screen will become responsive again after a couple minutes. This whole time you can take pictures and the screen is functioning just not responding to touch
This happens also when you're loading web pages, even a Google search the screen will stop responding to touch and then eventually start responding again for a short while till you load another page or start moving around the page too quickly it seems. However again the screen is functioning, video previews are playing, just no response to touch.
Loading a game like Asphalt 8 the phone doesn't respond to touches until a couple minutes after the game has been fully loaded.
Even after a hard reset/factory reset the screen will sometimes be unresponsive upon the initial welcome/setup screen and then it will become responsive and you can go through the whole setup without an issue.
Any insight? Any suggestions? If I can't figure it out I'll just get rid of it but it's in great condition a shame it just doesn't function properly.
Thanks in advance!
Looks like some sort of hardware issue...
But before you start to worry...
This might sound like a stupid question but have you tried cleaning your screen with some cleaning solutions?
Sometimes dust mixed with dried sweat can cause severe touch responsiveness issues even if the screen looks like it's clean.
This is an older thread, but maybe I can help someone.
I replaced a touchscreen on a LG G6 and saw that the touchscreen did not work if the back cover was not mounted correctly and the data transfer between the phone and the fingerprint sensor was interrupted. This may be a common problem for users because the connector is small and the back cover is attached with a double-sided tape nearby this connector. It seems that the touch screen is disabled by the phone software without the back cover.

Thank you so much for this comment!
My gf phone had problems lagging and becoming insensitive to touch, the problem got worse and worse, almost never responding anymore. Performed a factory reset etc, didn't help.
After reading your comment I tried pushing on the back cover while swiping. Now I'm able to revive the phone after pushing hard on the top and bottom left corners, of the back cover.
Thanks a mille !
Lg g6 has back panel from glass and under it you have contact for fingerprint sensor.Somehow if the back panel is loose it can cause touch fail,and you cant use the device touch function!
--->FIX:
So you will have to turn screen off using back button,and then try to press back glass on left and right side of the camera lens !
Then simultaneously press the power button and try to use the touch .
If it does not work tru again around camera lens and turn off screen each time you press the back glass!
For me it worked !
