My Blackstone's touchscreen behaves weird. It seams that the screen is way of alignment and if I press the bottom buttons i get to send commands that usually were sent through touchscreen. The home, send, end and back buttons don't work at all. All commands are off by one cm down... What is to be done?
The screen on the my streak has been slowly degrading, to the point where i can barely do basic functions of the phone. It doesnt register touches or swipes a large percentage of the time. If I long press on the background to bring up the add shortcut widget popup, it usually will bring the phone back to 85% function. But if I lock the screen and try again, I have to go back to longpressing until I can click apps.
Often presses will register along the top bar and bring up the notification screen or short menu when I am clicking anywhere but on the top. It has happened several times while typing this.
Has anyone had Touchscreen problems with their Streaks?

Do you have a screen protector on and maybe some debris between it on the screen?
I'd recommend aligning the screen.
User Manual said:
If necessary, you can calibrate your touch screen as follows:
1 Press and hold the power button and then touch the Power off option on the screen to turn off the device.
2 Simultaneously press and hold the volume up button and volume down button .
3 Without releasing the volume buttons, press and hold the power button , until the device turns on the configuration screen.
4 Press the volume buttons to move the highlight bar on the screen to the Screen calibration option.
5 Touch the Camera button to start the touch screen calibration. 6 Wait for the device to reboot.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also you could enable the debuging mode by typing in *#*307#*#* in your dialer, then in your app list you should see some new apps.
Open up Dev tools the select Pointer Location
Also another one is EmList and then select "Touch_Panel" theres a handful of diagnostic tools there that are pretty fun to mess with to see if something is physically wrong with your screen
Oh and to hide/disable debugging mode, just type in *#*308#*#*
I do also have some screen issues i had 8105 went back to 8023 and was working fine until today that it was acting up, but is better than 8105 which only let me touch half the screen, now it lets me do about 80% of the screen from bottom to top. I do have a screen protector, when I was running 1.6 didn't see this issue. Also i noticed that sometimes when my fingers are a bit sweaty the touch input doesn't work that well.
No screen protector, stock 1.6. Will try debug, thanks.
It happens with sweaty hands with dry hands its just messed up.

I just used the 6 step block method and it seems to have solved my issue. Help very much appreciated!

How long did it take to reboot after you hit the camera button?
I had to do mine yesterday as the lower part of the screen wasn't registering touches properly, as if it was about 50 pixels out.
First time round it didn't boot up with the volume keys held so i popped the battery off and started again (seems to be a common issue with this device). Then it was pretty much as standard for the boot. Keep the buttons held til the menu pops up, choose calibration, leave it until it says it's done and then reboot.
Again, should reboot as normal but if it doesn't try popping the battery off. The rear cover seems to cause a fair few issues with this!!
oh and running the calibration fixed the issue for me!
Hi
I have just bought a used nook, and i have a problem with it. The thing is, sometime nook is working perfectly, but sometimes it seams like a there is something wrong with touchscreen. For example, i try to hit menu button, and when i press it, the star at the top lights. When i press home, it doesn't go to home screen, but hides the menu, as if i press at the top of the screen. The problem is there like half a time, then is normal. It's random.
My nook is rooted, but this problem was there before i rooted it.
What's wrong and how to fix it ?
I9500 immaculate, left menu & right back buttons at base of screen stopped working
The touch sensitive menu 'button' to the left of the centred home button,
and the touch sensitive back 'button' to the right of the centred home button,
both don't work. However the central home button does work.
Everything else on the phone works.
I have already replaced the charger port ribbon, but this made no difference.
Has anyone any idea what is wrong and can this be fixed with a new part, or software.
Did they suddenly stopped working? A bit of background info may help more.
Hi! im facing a rly boring problem.
Touch screen just dont work, only on first boot works great, but if I lock and unlock my screen the touch just stop.
Touch buttons (capacitive buttons) work great. Also, I figured out something, If I press the power key and fastly move my finger around the screen 'till it turns on, it does detect my finger and works until i remove my finger from the screen, then it just stop.
I really neeed help
