Was wondering if anyone else has this issue. My slide did this stock and also does this on any rom I install. When scrolling through a web page I can scroll down just a little bit but when I let go of the screen it will just scroll all the way to the bottom by itself. Its like it lags and then just endlessly scrolls on its own. My behold 2 did this but my cliq didn't. Anyone else ran into this and know if there is a fix?

ok maybe im not nutz
I have had this happen to me I thought I had a bad touchpad or sumthin, I have even had it click to scroll all by its self even tho im not touching the pad. somtimes I think it may be do to shadow moving over the pad.
bhang
Happens to me too. It seems to be when the phone pauses for a moment like it's busy and then continues... If you happen to be scrolling during that moment it reads your movement as much faster than it actually was and sends your page flying at light speed.

Almost never happened on my G1. Happened ALL THE TIME on my Cliq, and I get it maybe once a day on the Slide. Its annoying, and you would think there would be some kind of fix for it.
Yeah, big time problem with the Slide. BY FAR my biggest gripe with this phone is the HORRIBLE touch screen. It feels nice, but it's not very accurate. They definitely skimped here.

Has anyone noticed that when you have the phone in landscape mode and you have the keyboard out and you are typing you loose wifi signal? Then remove left hand and signal comes back? I will have to make a video when I get home and have a camera to do so. Anyone else?

Just tried it and nope...My signal doesnt even change 1 bar.
Your holding it wrong lol
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I tried this and I did lose one bar of wifi. I also tried with the keyboard closed by covering the top of the phone with my hand, and also lost a bar of wifi. But it was not a deathgrip issue where signal was instantly lost. Guess this just means the wifi antenna is on the top of the G2, and obstructing it has an effect.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Defiantly not holding it wrong...and not apply hardly any pressure. I didn't notice it at all at home...but at my in laws. Possibly not a very strong wifi signal but makes 100% difference when I have my hand over the top of the phone. I've had an email waiting to send and as soon as I removed my hand the email sent. Will post video hopefully tonight showing how little pressure is applied and how strongly the signal is affected.

I don't lose any bars from my wifi. That's odd though.

I've noticed quirks like that on almost every phone I've owned. It doesn't do it every time though, and doesn't seem to matter where on the phone your hand is.
All devices without a physical antenna do this. Which is almost every phone now a days. All my phones done this.
Try this, hold your device sideways in landscape mode wrapping your index finger along the side, right on top of the ear speaker. You'll see your bars increase.

TBH,
I had never had the IPhone issue with a phone until I owned an Iphone....and then I owned a mytouch 4g and my wi-fi signal would drop depending on how i held it....
But nothing too bad

Actually, nothing is as bad as the iphone antenna. My friends iphone was horrible on that.
Yea, the mytouch is not so bad. I'm usually always holding my phone in landscape which is how it gets the best reception, so its all good.

I think every phone does
My wifi signal even loses a few bars for some reason when I do, and the router is ~20ft away without any walls
EDIT:
****, wrong forum.. sorry!!
I've been dealing with a phantom touch issue with my shift. Pefectly centered in on the botto of the screen where it hits the phone button in sense. Its looking like a hardware issue.
My question is, has anybody else experienced this and has anybody dealt with taking a rooted phone back to sprint for service?
Thoughts?

I had a weird issue where an area (the left side of the screen 2mm strip) on the touchscreen didn't work at all. I used the one zip RUU back to stock and brought it in and they gave me a new slider (whole top portion). Just happened 2 weeks ago.
I have bad problems with that and screen protectors, especially when it's really hot and humid (like everyday here in tampa)
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
At first I thought it was the screen protector, but the problem persisted after I stopped using them. And then I thought it was a bad rom or rom install, so I tried 3 different ones with no change. So ill just update myself to the OTA GB and take it in for service.
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA Premium App
Did the rooted update to GB and it seems to have gotten rid of the phantom touch issue. I ended up having to do a factory reset when I did it, so maybe that helped. Glad I don't have to deal with customer support now. There always seems to be a line when I go in.

Just want to say you're not alone, this happened once temporarily on my G2. It made pressing the "s" and "a" keys on the on-screen keyboard almost impossible!
hey guys, my friend just got a MT4G, non rooted (no interest in rooting ).
and he was "showing off" to me today when his hardware buttons suddenly stopped working. only the trackpad worked when he scrolled using it. all the rest of the buttons stopped working
finally i had to do a battery pull and reboot.. not sure if that fixed the issue (class was starting lol). i'll ask him again on monday.
but just wondering, has any of you guys encountered this issue before?
he's got S-On, and the stock gingerbread 2.3.4.
Haven't heard that about the hardware? I have heard about stock froyo randomly deleting all text messages tho.

Kinda, the back button on my phone gets stuck sometimes to the point where I can't push it/use it.

Build quality on the mt4g was never the greatest.
My home button stopped working, so I sent my phone to HTC to have it repaired.

Yea, I have the white one & my physical buttons suck. My back & other buttons often get stuck & my power button feels pretty loose. My battery door is also a little rickety. My boyfriend (i'm a girl, btw) has a black one & his buttons are much better, no sticking, no looseness. Kinda a crapshoot with these phones...

Is anyone having issues with the LG G2 touch screen.
The things I'm noticing is
guesture typing it loses it's trail and begins a new word. So if I'm trying to spell "Think," it'll get the "TH" then space it out and get some other string of letters etc.
Web Browsing; it'll click a link I'm not trying to
Zooming in on photos and scrolling while it's zoomed it'll sparatically zoom out or move to the next pic
There's several other things that I can't seem to get to replicate! Anyway with my research here's what I came up with.
My issue is much like this but far less easy to replicate!!! And not nearly as bad. How ever I was able to do it when my phone started having symptoms I pulled up the note pad and it did exactly like this just way less significant.

Here's another forum with people going through issues!
I'll take that as a no
I was having issues like that with gesture typing on both swift and stock keyboards. Basically it would just add all kinds of random entries. In another thread someone suggested using a microfiber cloth on the screen. It seems to be working now.

Just noticed that mine does the same thing... But it's not consistent, only happens once in a while. After I reboot it's fine. Really weird.
I posted earlier, looks like it didn't make it up. I had same issue, I tried flashing back to stock, assuming I had done something with rooting it, tried making sure that it was not an issue with ram bring to low, nothing fixed it. Took phone back to att, replaced it, havent had the issue once since then. I'm rooted, flashed and modded work no I'll effects. If you are within your return period, I would suggest that you return.

Well I have seen some quality control issues with these phones for sure... I'm still on stock and not rooted and mine does this. Going to have to go by the Verizon store Monday and get a new one.

I made a video to help illustrate what's going on!
Well I got a replacement phone and the problem is still happening. So I went into the shed grabbed my old Cyanogenmod MyTouch 3G and I plan to use that until the Nexus 5 comes out. Hopefully I'll get a launch unit.
Just holding this little phone makes me feel all nostalgic lol. I bought it in 2009 and it still holds a decent charge.

Are you just going to wait until the nexus 5 comes out and then take your g2 back, tell them that this is the second one that has done this, and demand they replace it with the "newer g2" ie Nexus 5? I thought about this!
I'm hoping this is a software issue..mine is really annoying
