Aria touchscreen errors. Acting weird.

I think there is something wrong with my digitizer. I'll be using the phone and the screen will act as if its being continuesly pressed somewhere else so it won't scroll and I can't hit icons until I turn it off and on again. Not soft reset. It happens almost everything time I use it. It has happened several times while writing this. Any ideas? Something under digitizer?

Take it back!

Not an option. I bought it privately.

OK, so you bought it privately and returning is not an option, so how about some more information. Has the phone been rooted? What ROM are you running? Have you tried a full wipe to see if that solves the problem?

I have had the phone for a couple months it just started doing this. I'm running liberated fr007. Rooted. Have not tried hard reset.

I thing I'm having the same problem.
My touchscreen get crazy completely randomly, sometimes I'm typing an sms and its almost imposible to write, cause it just get stuck even on the "P" letter or on the emoticons thing of the keyboard.
Sometimes I just can't switch between my homescreens (its like the thing refuses to work), what I do is switch off and on the screen (the slide to unlock works, but not the homescreens) and after several attempts it comes back to normal.
But it all started when I installed the latest version (6.1.1) of CyanogenMod.
Did anyone get a solution?
I don't want to roll back to a previous version or try another ROM.
Thanks!

Try to fix superuser permissions idk id probably just try to reinstall after clean swipe and restore everything with my backup pro. Also check the temp of the phone high temps around 100 mess up the touchscreen responding.
Signatures are fancy.

sorry... but im kind of a noob
How do I check the permisions?
What should I look for?
Thanks!

i would try doing a complete wipe and installing it again. if you've been using your phone with no errors previously, then the issues shouldn't be with your hardware but perhaps with a bad install of the current rom.

I've done that before.
But it looks like there's a new nightly version of CM... I'll give it a shot, hopefully this is gonna fix it

would love to know your outcome on this - as it is happening on my phone as well
running a FR008 - was running perfectly until early this morning - then the same behavior that you were getting.

Auto rotate problem

My auto rotate has stopped working. Only way to go to landscape is by opening the keyboard. I suspect one of the sensors may be at fault. Raging thunder was much easier to play when it was working now the turning is sort of sporadic. I tried reflashing to no avail. Anyone have any ideas? I have to take my epic to sprint because the left side of my screen is lifting so ill mention that while I'm at it. In the meantime is there anything I can do on my own?

Try the following: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926098, you also may want to try toggling the auto rotation box in the settings, and reboot your phone
Also, if your taking it into sprint, you may want to restore your phone back to the stock rom and recovery first, if it isn't already.

Also if you're using a custom launcher make sure the rotation settings on that don't conflict with the original settings. Sometimes you gotta turn the custom launcher's settings off.

removed .......

My screen is starting to lift on the left side as well. I've dropped my phone once or twice; but they weren't long/hard drops. Maybe this is why?

my left side screen was slightly raised from day 1 out of the box.

Yea it really sucks. Luckily sprint is awesome enough to fix or replace my phone at the service center near me as long as I'm paying for the insurance... and as long as they can prove that I didn't do the damage to it. I can't stand the screen lift more than I can stand the auto rotate. It scares me lol

Alright little update.
I got tired of stock di18 after going back to it experiencing lag on every 2.2 rom I tried. Just flashed the new midnight rom and NOW everything is.zippy as help with no lag. Just so happens my autorotate works now. Did the autorotate lag fix and now its perfect. Might I add gps works perfectly too.
...finally my epic is now finally epic. 1100/2000 in smartbench. That numbers rounded I don't remember the exact figure but point is I luv these devs!

Not sure if this was mentioned, but if you do the auto rotate lagfix: sensorcalibutil_yamaha method, and you get "failed" results, you can go to data/system and delete (or rename):
Ms3c_yamaha.cfg
(I renamed it to ms3c_yamaha.bak)
Then reboot, use the sensorcalibutil_yamaha method again, the cfg file will have been recreated, and it should work.

Yea it works extremely fast. The.phone is flipped and ready to go before I even adjust my hands to use the phone. I love this thing.

What's wrong with my camera?

The camera on my evo used to work fine. Within the last week or two I've had a problem with it not opening. It just shows a picture of the camera and then shows a black screen.
I've read that it could be caused by apps that use the camera but I have none. I did a reset on my phone and that did nothing either. How can I fix this!?

by picture of the camera then black screen, what do you mean?
the camera works for a moment, or that just the camera button shows up then nothing?

If a hard reset doesnt work, that means its hardware related, not software. Take it to sprint and have then look at if and give you a replacement.

hope this helps.
intially i had that problem too took it into sprint and found out it was advanced task killer that was interferring with my camera. after that had been taken off a couple months down the road my video camera stopped working, but my camera was fine. trial and error it turns out the new google maps is what's messing with it. always check what apps you've recently updated and uninstall those updates, just back track till the camera works again

Try clearing the camera data by going to settings, applications, manage applications, and click on the camera app and then clear data.
Also are you rooted and what ROM are you using? Maybe you can just reflash the ROM.

I was rooted with stock sense but I unrooted after the hard reset didnt work.
Also, I bought my evo through bestbuy, can I still go to a Sprint store and get a replacement? I don't have phone insurance either.

It could be the Kernel you are using, if you have a newer hardware version with a new camera/driver then flash a Kernel that supports the new hardware/driver.
I hope this helps My friend had this same problem and he fixed it buy flashing a new Kernel. Good luck.
Edit: Never mind I just reread your last post and seen you unrooted and still have the problem. So yeah your best bet would be to call Sprint.

Camera inverted (upside down) with CM7.

Hey guys.
I've been using CM7 for about a month now, currently in the 010911 Nightly.
Everthing was fine until this past week, when the camera of my phone started to have strange freezes and lags. Then, one time, it FCed and when I turned it back on, the display was inverted, and colors were all strange and washed off.
I've rebooted, cleaned the data, etc, etc, and nothing fix the issue. Keep in mind that there's nothing with the tilt sensor. It's something software related.
I remember seeing a fix for a similar problem a while back, but I searched this hole forum and couldn't find anything, so, I beg for your help.
Thanks a lot!

Sorry for the bump, guys. But I really need some light with this problems.

Try clearing Camera app data or switch to another nightly.

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, I already tried both things you suggested, with no luck.

Not sure if it has anything to do with it, but is the boot mode set to 2nd init by default ?!
You can also try using other camera apps like Vignette.

dude, we are on the same boat. Tell me when u find a solution.
A temporary fix which i m not sure till when its gonna last but is working for the moment.
open camera, leave it opened and pull the battery. put the battery again after 2 mins and see if it helps you. Its working for me at the moment but dont know the logic behind the process.
I already got my camera hardware replaced but this problem happened again just after rooting the phone.

I have the same problem and I'm almost sure it is a hardware failure. Maybe after a shock or drop. I'll open my unit this week and see what's wrong. Did some of you manage to fix it?
I've even tried flashing full stock sbf without success, so I'd blame the camera module.

Camera error

I just got my Droid Turbo 2 delivered today from Moto Maker and I have to say it's almost perfect.
Unfortunately, I am getting a error message when I try to access the camera. The message just says that there was an error and the camera must restart. Has anybody else seen this?

Yeah, I hope it's not a big thing because I'm liking the phone way more than I thought I would. You can't beat having a battery you don't have to worry about for most of the day.
I was able to get the camera working by force closing the camera app, clearing both the cache and data and then rebooting. I still don't know what the cause was, but hopefully it won't reoccur.

Ive noticed I cant use the camera if battery saver is on

Are you using Nova? I installed Nova immediately and had the same issue because the shortcut it defaulted to was not the Moto camera app. Replaced the home screen one with the app drawer one and it worked fine.

I'm using Nova, but that wasn't my issue. It was occurring no matter how I accessed the camera. The issue is resolved though, so its all good.

Glad to hear it. Hopefully it doesn't come back

The day I purchased my phone after a couple of uses with the front facing camera it just stopped working. When I would try to switch to it I would get an error message. After a restart the button to switch to it had disappeared. I also thought it was maybe because of Nova launchers camera shortcut not defaulting to the correct app. However I tried everything I could think of. Clear cache force stop disable re-enable restart factory reset. Nothing worked. Had to take it back. Haven't had any problems with the replacement. The first one did however have a quite noticeable shaking sound which I thought was some sort of sensor but after getting my new one I believe the front facing camera may have had a loose connection to the motherboard and then became disconnected.

Did you clear the cache in the recovery menu, I had that problem with the Droid Bionic years ago. That fixes majority of camera issue.

I did try that but still had no luck and even booted into safe mode to make sure it wasn't a third party app causing the issue and the camera still didn't work So i figured it was a hardware issue.

Factory Reset?

Make sure you have the screen set to standard resolution. Its a known issue.
