Ho all,
I am having a serious problem with touch display alligning. It happened two times, on resuming it from stand by, touch screen lost its configuration. So that display becomes unusable becouse finger touch doesn't have a correct corrispondance. I had to restart device to have it working again.
Have you installed any custom ROMs? If not...
You'll want to contact HTC as this sounds like it may be a hardware issue. http://www.htc.com/www/support/nexusone/

No, I still haven't rooted it. It's with stock rom. HW problem? I wish in a SW issue..
I've seen this issue crop up on my rooted N1 as well. A reboot fixes it, as does waiting it out. For some reason I seem to notice it happening when I'm in the browser. There's a thread here about it (which evidently I can't link to since I'm new). Check the second page of the general section, the subject is "touch screen issues".
Seems like a software issue to me, but who knows.
The first thing to do if you have these types of obvious software issues is a hard reset (Settings>Privacy>Factory Reset). If that doesn't work, then it's time to call HTC.

Thank you all! I found the post where this is being discussed.
This is an issue many people are experiencing on google support forums, in fact it is the second longest thread after the 3g issues. It has also finally been pinned. Here is the link: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=04134c63c784258e&hl=en#all
Anyone experiencing the same problem please post in that thread, the more people that post the more chance for google to acknowledge this and remedy.
BTW I also experince issues with the touch screen which happen quite randomly and can normally be cleared with a power on/off. When the screen goes bad the touch is no longer registered in the correct spot on the screen.
So, I've been having the screen sensitivity issue, jaggedy drawn lines, randomly typed keys, etc.
Now, has anyone else done the same?
As the problem is intermittent, what're the odds they'll actually fix it?
Also, is it actually going to be gone 2-3 weeks or do they usually turn around quicker?
I miss it already
mine was gone for 24 days, all it needed was a software flash. overall, good service, but could be quicker......
if they just flash the software I'll not be happy, I could do that myself.

I have this issue too, and I read about it on some other threads as well.
I'm not really sure what is causing it, but its more likely to be a hardware issue rather than software.
Although my friend bought his HD2 recently, and his phone doesnt have this problem. I guess this issue is fixed in newer HD2s
You can see this thread for discussion and videos about this issue
their service is worst ive ever know...4 weeks so far....never going to send my phone to them, rather send it to dodgy kev from the pub to fix
My Vibrants home button just stopped working. I have to tap it like 10 times to
make it work and then it just stops again. I know its a known issue and i am sure
alot of your guys had this problem as well. Are there ways to fix it? or no.

I have never heard of this issue, what did you do to cause it.. What did you flash?
Did you drop it?
p.s, wrong section.

Hmmm, still haven't heard of the issue.
Did you try reflashing?

Where are these "many people", because I have also never heard this one?
Not saying it's not true, but I'm pretty active reading most of the major threads and haven't seen this as an issue before.
I would try flashing a different ROM just to make sure it's not a bad flash. If that doesn't clear it up, you can be sure that it's hardware related.
I had the same issue with my first vibrant. Call tmobile and get a replacement.

Bump anyon else experienced this ?

I experience this every once in awhile. I really think its just lag. I find myself pressing my back and menu button multiple times. But its usually when I have multiple apps running at the same time. But its not often of enough to call it broken. It was a orginal hardware lock phone.
I have this issue with the menu button sometimes. It doesn't feel like lag because the buttons don't even light up. Seems to be more prevalent on froyo roms.
***Swyped onto XDA via Vibrant***
So the conclusion is that its a software issue or hardware?
This problem does exist maybe not with the majority of users.. but I too suffer from this problem every now and then. Sometimes my home button will work flawless and sometimes it can be a pain in the ass!! literally becoming unresponsive to the point of multiple taps in order to get some response. I'm sure its not lag because this even takes place at the home screen with literally nothing going on in the background.
Had the exact same issue, it is software. In my case I've been using the Zeam launcher, it was NOT Zeam at fault, rather the Gingerbread Launcher Free that came loaded with my ROM. I found a post with the same symptoms from someone who was using LauncherPro. After removing the unused launcher (Gingerbread Launcher free) and rebooting the home key is behaving just as it should.
im willing to bet its not the same for everyone
if you have a screen protector on (such as realook), i guarantee that is your issue
In my case, it was the overclock settings with Setcpu. remove overclock to see if ok on yours.

i have same issue, sometimes really bad response - i use button remmaper for remap search to home and i have 2 home button now
So before the gingerbread update i was experiencing the nexus one touch screen issue. This issue would happen mostly when the phone would be charging or warm, and the y coordinate of the touch screen would be off by about an inch. (I would post a link to youtube but i can't yet... new member =/ ) So if you try to answer your phone while the defect was active, you couldnt, because touching the slider would be recognized as trying to touch the 'menu' key on the phone.
Anyway, after gingerbread got pushed to my device, i have yet to experience this issue!! i havent been able to find anyone reporting this resolution. i'm extremely please about this because it was becoming a deal breaker after i missed an important call because i couldnt answer my phone due to the issue!!
anyone else experiencing this resolution!?
In my experiences it does still occur, although seemingly less frequently. It is a hardware problem though so probably won't disappear regardless of the OS

Yup. For some reason I have worse now than before. Maybe I'm just using it more now. Lately it's driving me nuts, to the point of actually looking at a replacement.

this is where I was at before the push, i was seriously considering the incredible s, but for now it seems to have completely disappeared from my device...
I've also heard its a hardware issue (I do believe it to be true, not questioning that), so i found it extremely odd that its not happening now on my device.
Guess I'll just keep my mouth shut and enjoy
Observed no difference. The bug still appears every now and then. Doesn't bother me much because it usually occurs when the phone's charging. Not when I'm on the street using it. I heard that removing any kind of screen protectors can actually solve this problem.

I had it terribly after the GB OTA, I wiped cache & dalvik and it all but went away. One occurrence in a week and a half, and I've been using the crap out of the phone.
Slightly off topic question: On stock Android, is wiping cache the same as wiping the dalvik cache? The stock recovery doesn't have the "wipe dalvik" option, only "wipe cache".
No it's not, but if you have root you can wipe it manually by removing the contents /data/dalvik-cache/

Thanks. But every time you flash an official update, the cache gets wiped and rebuilt though, right? That's why after each update it takes a long time to boot.
I still have the touchscreen issue. i think it will never be solved because it's an hardware issue, not a software one.
So the problem still appears, maybe a little less frequently.
I still have the prob but it's different with 2.3
Before 2.3, the touchscreen problem was unpredictable and could happen at almost anytime, whether charging or not. I replaced the handset but the problem persisted.
Since upgrading to GB, I've noticed a very clear pattern. If I'm charging my device and unplug it before it is fully charged, the touchscreen becomes extremely erratic to the point I must reboot the phone. If it's allowed to charge completely it's okay.
It never happens when it's is not charging.
Still annoying as hell but I've moved to Africa and having the device replaced is a real challenge. So I guess I'm stuck with until I replace it.
Still has issue
Stock, no modification at all. Today when I was rearranging icons in ADW Launcher, it seems that the screen registered click below where my finger actually was, same as the problem I saw previous to updating to 2.3.3. The phone was not hooked to a charger at the time.
Stock GRI40 here on my Nexus One...same issues that i've already had with Froyo. As it was posted before, it's a hardware issue; and the Nexus S is the new kid on Google's block, so i'm not expecting anything to improve our screens.

Theoretically, there is a chance they could fix a software workaround for the hardware problem. If the error happens in only specific circumstances, and ALWAYS happens in those circumstances, then just teach the phone to know when those circumstances are happening, and tell it what to do in those cases. However, I doubt anyone at Google is working too hard on this problem. I agree, it seems to be much less frequent than it ever was. Seems likely that they may have added a little something to help us out.

Or more likely, it could be unintentional.
So even with official OTA it's still here?
Remember me of the ''crazy'' screen problem we had before while charging,perhaps it's a hardware problem after all
This is a main reason why tomorrow i'm getting a new galaxy s.
I tried a lot of custom and stock roms, I sent my phone to HTC and they replaced hardware, but this issue still persist. And it cause me a lot of problems, especially while driving...
I also still get that glitch but not as frequently. I noticed that i didn't need to reboot the phone to fix it. All i need to do is tap the power button to shutoff the screen and then re-tap to turn it back on and it'll show the lock screen. Slide to unlock and the screen is precise once again.
The bug is still there for me also. However, I didn't seem to have it as bad as some did originally, and now I've noticed that it's happening even less frequently.
Before the flaming starts, I know there are threads about the screen refresh issues but think this may be different. Back in the day would call this a screen refresh issue but I've noticed a minor flicker at various times of use. Initially it seemed to occur only when using aldiko, but now I can't tell if it happens regardless of app.. or if my mind is playing tricks.
Anyway to test to see if there is a screen defect? Does rooting do anything to help fix it? Appreciate the help, save the flames for someone else please.

From what I can tell, I think it's a Tegra issue. Nothing in the software.
