Sometimes cannot answer by touch screen, too. Not knowing the reason.
Piece of advice: Auto slide-back! Occasionally, I touch the arrow accidentally and the arrow move a little, I touch again, it moves again, finally, it's unlocked! If it can slide back automatically when I didn't slide to the end right and lift my finger, this will not happen.
How about this advice?!

Hello,
I've a trouble with my beloved Tytn:
when I tap near the center of the screen, usually the tap doesn't work properly, but it seems that I tap to the bottom left of the screen, and not to the center.
This trouble causes the tapping of the left softkey, and for example when I'm typing an sms, it send...
I've tried to adjust the screen alignment, many times, but it doesn't work.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!
Does it happen constantly, or intermittently? I've noticed something similar on my 8525; When using the stylus, all of the presses are registered perfectly, but when using my fingers, the phone seems to have a hard time registering the press. Often times, when I'm using a touch keyboard, it will react as if I had pressed the "X" in the top right corner.
Like I said, it never does that with the stylus, just when I'm using my fingers. I think that the touch screen driver or whatever on this particular device has a hard time registering the presses from a larger-surfaced object like a thumb.
It happens some times, and only with use of fingers (and I have not hotdog-like fingers...).
I don't know how to solve this trouble, but it's difficult to work with that.
Oh, so it sounds like your issue is similar to mine. See, I think that the software that detects the on-screen presses is most likely calibrated for the stylus (hence why you use the stylus to align the screen when you first boot the OS). I think that it has difficulty detecting larger surface contact, which causes it to freak out and detect the press wrong.
This has bugged me for a while, too. It even happens when I'm using my thumb to hit the tabs on HTC Home; I'll hit a tab and the task manager from the upper right corner (I use O2 Plus 2.0) will drop down. Very annoying.
Anynody else have any ideas?
Hi,
I'm having trouble with my dual lately.
Seems like my screen alignment has gone crazy, i cant tap the start bar anymore, it thinks im tapping richt beneath it, also when i press anywhere in the right side of the screen, i always tap on the lower right softkey, even when pressing on the 'x' button (this is not on the left side, tough). Only when i hold my finger down for about 5 secs, the touchscreen finally notices and then the alignment is a bit more normal (cube opens because of shifting the pressurezone) but still it is off.
It's kinda weird but it acts like the touchscreen is a 'startbar' smaller than the actual screen, since the alignment in the bottom is ok, but at the top it isn't.
I tried re-aligning about 20 times, but it only helped me for a few taps, and i dont want to align it anytime i have to tap on start or x ;( (i also tried hard-resetting)
Anyone know a solution??
I dont really wanna miss my dual for 2 weeks sending it for repair
Thanks in advance!
had a similar issue with mine before. had no choice but to have it sent in as it was a hardware issue with mine.
feel lag on when is unlocking. did any one having a same problem with me??
please delete this post...
The unlock swipe would lag for the following reasons:
1. Your wifi was turned on but is off because of screen being off. You turned on the screen which makes the phone re-enable wifi and connect to a network. This process will lag the swipe animation.
2. You used some kind of app (ie. JuiceDefender) that would disable APN (3G) when your screen is off. Turning the screen on again will make the phone to try to reconnect to 3G and this will also lag the swipe animation.
3. You just turned on your phone and because things are still loading at startup, doing the swipe will lag.
Tip: Try to wait for 5 seconds after turning the screen on and then do the swipe motion. It should go back to normal.
If none of that applies to you, do a factory reset =)
this is my second time to hard reset it but still the same.
I often find that swiping doesn't unlock the phone; the arrow won't go all the way to the edge of the screen (it sometimes just stops halfway). When that happens, I press the power button to lock the screen, then try the process again. 9 times out of 10 it'll work fine the second time.
This happens when the WiFi is off, and I am not using any APN software, nor have I just switched the phone on.
It doesn't really bother me, unless this happens when a call comes in, and I can't answer it! (it often takes me a few swipes to answer a call, and I have to swipe it slowly and carefully)

you might have a problem with your screen where some parts wont respond to your touch
download any drawing programs " i find magic marker " is the best from the market place. its free. and tap dots all over your screen, if there is/ are parts that doesnt response to your tap from the first time, that means u have problem with the screen and its not accepting your touch input. which is why your swipe doesnt go all the way sometimes.
Yes there is lag on the unlock screen. I see it as just bad programming by SE.

My swype keep changing direction, anyone nows how to set it to a particular side?
@mirdones - it changes sides when you start with your finger at the top of the swipe arc and slide your phone across the screen (left to right or right to left)..
@everyone - my swipe unlock occasionally stops about 3 quarters of the way along.. all I do is re-swipe from where it stopped and it's fine - that said, it doesn't happen as much now that I have stopped using task killers and startup auditor.
I find that instead of a slow swipe more of a flick works well for me.
Does anyone know if its possible to disable the se lock and just use the android one?

I've seen that a lot of people have unresponsive back buttons, but mine seems to be the opposite.
Several times now, with seemingly no easy way to reproduce it, I've been able to activate the back button without touching it. With the keyboard out, and without touching the screen or the back button on the keyboard, I'm able to tap the lower right hand corner of the case (I have a Seidio case on it) that protects the screen and it triggers the back button. It's to the point where if I can do it once, I can do it multiple times.
Not sure if any of that made sense, but I'm sure people who are experiencing similar problems have also seen it and might have an idea of what's up.
Possible answer for unresponsive back button on Epic
I need help with this possible answer to the unresponsive back button problem.
1. If I use my right index finger to tap and sometimes multi taps to get the back button to work.
2. But if I use my right thumb the back button works everytime. Only a light tap with my thumb is all that it takes.
Please try and post if this works for you.

That's... got nothing to do with my question. Again, my back button is perfectly responsive. If I click it, it works, end of story. The problem is that it seems to click itself or activate when I touch various parts of the screen portion of the phone without actually touching the back button.
Unfortunatly this is a known issue and one of the reasons I switched away from the Epic. I had 2 that were bad the first one having issues similar
Best of luck...
The trackpad on my phone is too sensitive. I can touch anywhere on the bottom of the phone and it counts like I pressed in the trackpad. This is annoying because my phone selects random things on the screen. It also happens in recovery. Is there a way to disable the trackpad, or do I have to try and fix it by taking apart the phone?
Does anyone know where a guide is to repair the trackpad. I only found guides that remove the screen.
