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)

Hi,
The touch screen part of my universal has ground to halt to the point that it won't work.
There doesn't appear to be any cracking and I don't recall dropping it or sitting on it.
I work a fair bit outside and can get quite a bit of dust and dirt in my pockets and am wondering if it could be due to dirt getting into the connect on the hinge.
Has any one else come across problems with the hinge?
I'm reasonably adept with a screwdriver - are there any things to watch out for when disassembling to check it over?
Hi..
If u can open with the Universal guide posted in the forum then try clean ing the connectors on the Right and Left of the Clamp Shell part with Iso Propyl Alcohol.
Before opeining you can try pressing mildly with yr fingers, at all the forur corners..it can start working..else do the above...
Hi,
OK, the screen seems to be working OK this morning, however I seem to be getting a sort of ghost effect where it appears as though the phone icon and the volume icons are getting pressed resulting in the volume controls and the phone/flight mode popup appearing on screen.
I guess it is all down to dirty connections.
Do you have a link to the thread about dismantling the hinge, I can't seem to find it.
Thanks.
re isopropal alchol
only use 99% alchol to clean contacts anything below that can cause corrosion on printed circut boards and contacts.
any progress yet.
mine stopped working today too.
but when i took off my screen protector, it worked for a while.. now its dead again.
I think the screen protectors may cause this problem, as I too had this problem with a screen protector; but when i took it off it would work and and off. I cleaned the screen up and after a few hours my screen was working again!
being in Australia I go to the beach allot. with my jasjar.
the sand gets stuck in the sides of the screen putting pressure on the screen and disabling any input. just a thought that it could be the same with u.
hope u sort it out, otherwise claim it on warrenty sooner than later.
The problem I have with the screen is that occasionally the touch screen side of things appears to stop working and also the the volume, wifi and phone dialogs keep on appearing as if I am pressing the relevant icons in the top bar.
I'm guessing some dirt has got into it somewhere or there is a loose connection, but am struggling to open up the screen's case to inspect it.

i took off my screen protector and it worked an hour...
got home, prepared to go to the T-mobile store.. then cleaned my screen ( without protector ) with a small cloth and it was working again.. so weird..
lets wait and see what happens ..
It's not really that weird: If some dust, or something equally small gets between the screen and the plastic frame, it can put enough pressure on the screen, and so the touch screen takes it as a constant (or intermitent) input, invalidating any other action on the rest of the screen.
I just received my Aquapac waterproof (and sand/dustproof) to use my Jasjar hapilly in the beach! :lol:
oh so annoying, my volume sliders keep popping up now..., as if some one keeps tapping, cause when not in Land scape mode when i open the "START" menu. it scrolls down, the same input/tap as wher the volume is in Landscape mode
There must be something wrong ... my screen still isnt working properly
one possible solution for touch screen not working
guys.... although I dont need to register onto this portal and it took me 15 minutes to register (fault of my own) but I got so much relieved with the solution that it deserved 15 minutes of my effort ;-) I hope it helps someone...just like it did help me....
I own a P835 Asus mobile and from past 2-3 days was having problems - start menu continuously appearing and my taps not getting recognized. Since yesterday my screen suddenly stopped responding to any taps or scrolls altogether.... buttons were working fine but not the screen..... i spoke to the facilities centre this morning and was about to take it to the shop but due to my laziness...didn;t go.....
Thanks guys.... what you mentioned above is very correct.... it was just a tiny molecule of dust that the screen was interpreting as my input and finally refusing all my taps..... I just cleaned the screen and the speaker side with the mere stylus n things started working.... thanks a lot.... more than laziness was this worry cause I just bought this piece a month before....
so people...before takin it to the shop....try this one too.....huhhh.....
Anyone else having their touch screen stop working property until they have to reboot? It's like it gets way off on where I'm actually clicking.
I have experienced that, but only after I had flashed the modaco rom. I basically returned to stock firmware this morning and am having to re-root my phone...
I have had a couple of occasions where it doesnt seem to respond correctly.
For me its like it looses the calibration, seemed to noticed it when the device is tilted horizontally.
reboot sorts it, only happened once or twice though.
If the phone is in your hand, make sure your other fingers aren't curling over the screen around the edges to much.
I noticed this happening, and backed my fingers off around the edge of the screen and it started working fine immediately.
I think the screen is just extra sensitive.
Curious if that helps.

I read somewhere (maybe on this forum even) that non-multi-touch systems have this problem. Have the same issue with my HTC Magic, but after a while you learn of a way to use the device single-handed while not touching the screen.
I dont know if this helps or not but I have no idea what you guys are talking about

The calibration problem (the screen registers a wrong spot than where you touched) comes up if you try to use a non-multi-touch phone single-handedly, so part of your palm (between the thumb and index fingers) touches the edge of the touch screen. Especially if you are trying to reach a top area of the screen while holding the phone with just that hand, likely some part of the palm touches the bottom of the screen.
If you want to try having the problem, you can touch the edge of the screen with a finger and try to click a link with another. It won't register the right spot.
Supposedly the problem should go away as soon as you lift that body part up from the screen.... so I don't know if this helps the OP or not.
same issue
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=615711
does not look like its happening all the time. Ran few tests and still can't duplicate the problem in order to find the cause. so far this happened about 3-4 times on my phone.
i hope this gets resolved soon and that its not the touchscreen issue.

I've had this exact thing happen to me a few times. I notice the tip of a finger on the edge of the screen, move it, then it works fine right after. Sometimes happens with the base of my thumb hitting the bottom left corner too.
Just make sure you're not accidentally touching any of the touch area and it'll work fine.
same here

Touch Screen Stops Working

I have had this same issue on my G1 as well a N1. This problem only happens from time to time, as happes with stock ROMs and custom ROMs.
For the N1, I was initial pulling the battery; however, I have found that if I hold the power button down (don't let go) and then touch the screen to unlock or power if off.
I have a friend with the Eris who was having the same problem; Verizon released a patch earlier in the week that seems to have solved the problem for him.

You can perform a soft reset on the Nexus One by holding volume down, the trackball, and pressing the Power button on top. A half second later, your phone will reboot.
I am also having these touch screen problems, and I can confirm I am not touching any other part of the screen to have it interfere with the non-touch-screen interface. I been testing with what people has been saying on here with having any other part of the screen being pressed, so I have been testing it out and I can say its a different response then what I'm experiencing.
Here is what is going on with my nexus one:
1) it happens at random times (my device is on my table and I am pressing buttons with one finger)
2) it only affects the bottom-left portion of the screen when it happens, touching everywhere else is fine
3) it thinks I'm pressing an area around the soft keys, an example is if I press 'A' it thinks I press either the '?123' or the 'back' button, same if I press 'd' it thinks I'm pressing the 'menu' button.
I can conclude that since not all nexus one owners has this problem it is a device issue, which what is going on is probably the same as if someone was accidentally pressing a part of the screen, but it could be part of the device is assembled incorrect or deformed. The physical form of my phone is off on the right side, I can feel the gray plastic part next to the black border next to the right of the screen is a little more raised then the left side.
But there is my experience with whats going on to me and my two cents.
Ive had this a little bit on my device as well, but I think it's a software issue since it went away when I pressed the home button.
edit:
Also it has happened exclusively in Dolphin browser
here too
Sporadically, it happens with my N1 as well. When pointing at the middle of the screen (in a list for example), the input registers 2 cm below my fingertip. Rebooting fixes this temporarily but it is annoying.
A SW update could perhaps cure this behaviour?

I just had this happen for the first time, all my presses were registering way below where i was touching, tilting into landscape in an app then back to portrait fixed it for me.
So now it happened to me too. I have the Nexus One for almost two weeks and I never had the unresponsive touchscreen. Of course I noticed that the center of the softbuttons is shifted upwards and that they don't register very well in the middle where they should and I had the problem before that the sms text input box didin't registered in the center so that the keyboard wasn't popping out but that is all only a problem of adjustment. Today in the morning after my phone was on standby over night I put in the charger to charge it and I got an email with pictures. I scrolled through the email and all of a sudden the screen became totally unresponsive. I tried to scroll and the screen registered at a complete different place. All of a sudden the email was gone because the phone registered the delete button even though I never pressed it. I could close the gmail program but I had a hard time to scroll between the home screens and the live wallpaper became unresponsive too. I decided to do a restart but I had a hard time to press the shutting down button because it was unresponsive too. This all happened not after heavily usage of the phone but after maybe 1 minute usage.
I am sure that I didn't touch another part of the screen when this occured because I realized before already that the screen becomes wacky if you touch it at two different places (lack of multitouch, so stupid to disable it). I hope that this is a software issue too. I can live at the moment with the 3G problem because it doesn't stop me from using the phone. The unresponsive touchscreen scares me more because because it becomes completely unusable.
i've noticed this with low battery. Twice its happened to me, the first time was when i first recieved the handset. and secondly was this morning when my phone was off with no battery again.
anybody want to leave their battery to empty out and try test if this is correct?
I've had this happen a few times in the ten days i've had the phone. I always make sure I'm not double dipping on the screen, and its easy to do since it will exhibit this behavior for a few minutes.
In my experience battery level has no effect on it.
A reboot always fixes the issue.
I figure it's software based.
hi, i dropped ny beloved dz a few days ago, i saw the screens lcd fade away quickly leaving a blank lit screen, so i got a new one today (lcd), and after fitting, is exactly the same :-( anyone have any suggestions of any other piece of hardware that could be causing this?
also, you can switch the screen on and off once it has booted up but i get no vibrations from the screen or menu buttons when i press them..
any ideas? many thanks..
anyone?????
Hi all ,So the story goes is I had my cracked screen replaced by my insurance 2 months ago. My new screen was fine up until a few week ago when this started happening..
youtu.be/lXv5xBA-r9E[/url]
Basically when I press hard on the top right of the screen I get ghost touches all over the screen. It also happens all the time when I use a case because of the pressure on the top right part of my screen.
I noticed that I can get my fingernail in between the 2 parts of the phone on the side. I really don't want to go a month without my phone again so I'm reluctant to send it off to insurance. Has anyone had this problem? Should I try a phone repair shop? Does this happen if a screen isn't fitted properly or is it another problem? Thanks
Seems like a faulty digitizer
More info... The screen works fine when I press it normally. It only goes crazy and when I press slightly harder or if there is a case on
Hey guys, just got LG V35 updated it to android Pie, everything seemed fine, but i can't normally unlock phone. On main screen i can double tap and it locks, however double tapping again, doesn't unlock phone, as if screen froze. Also fingerprint button doesn't work either, i mean i need to press it twice slowly and only then screen turns on and shows lock screen, always on display also doesn't work. After simple restart those features work, but after a minute, same thing happening again. Also noticed, that if someone calls, screen is also unresponsive. Got phone couple days ago. Any solution ?

i had the same issue when i got mine. i think the screen protector i installed was the issue-it only had adhesive around the the edge and started to come off. i returned that one and replaced it with another make and haven't had the "knock on/off" issue since. good luck

I agree with tomdi1999 and also have used the adhesive around the edge screen protector but they interfered with screen touch sensitivity, it is as if having a couple of fingers touching the screen permanently while trying to double tap or unlock the phone via power button. If you have any glass screen protector, try removing the screen protector and double tap again to see if it fixes the issue. If you are not wanting to remove the screen protector first and want to do some troubleshooting, try run touch screen test via the hidden menu (assuming your v35 is AT&T version) by dialing *#546368#*350# (Be warned that some options in this menu can really mess up your phone so don't go around messing with options in this menu randomly) in the phone dialer. In hidden menu select Device Test -> SAAT -> Service Menu - Manual Test -> Touch Draw Test. If, with screen protector on you are having trouble doing this test, remove the screen protector, clean the screen, and do the test again. If you still have trouble with touch screen it is probably a hardware problem or could be software problem but unlikely though. Also, place a test call to someone and slowly place your hand to cover the ear piece and proximity sensor area to see if screen goes dark. This is to check if your proximity sensor is working properly because if it is not then it could be the reason that double tap to wake is not working, although it doesn't explain why your power button is responding slowly, that points toward the phone processor being busy due to ghost touches such as due to bad screen protector or just a faulty power button (but what are the chances of having a faulty power button and double tap to wake going bad at the same time lol?).
I remember that years back on LG G4 double tap function would stop working if you had the screen replaced or sent in the phone to LG for repairs such as repair for notorious bootloop issues and it turned out that there was a small rubber piece that went around the proximity sensor that people were forgetting to put back when replacing screen or doing other repairs which basically broke the proximity sensor. Proximity sensor is suppose to disable screen wake up due to accidental double taps such as when phone is in pocket but if proximity sensor is malfunctioning it will not let phone wake even when you double tap to wake it.
If you figure out what was wrong and/or fixed your issue, please do post back so it can help others. Thanks.
Edit: If you are looking for a good screen protector try Skinomi or Armor Suit wet screen protectors. They are not glass and are a pain to put on but once you install them and let them dry, they are awesome.
It helped me thanks a million!
wouldn't think ever it was the screen protector, thought one of my apps...
I've removed it and it was back to normal.
thanks again
