So i am about 3 weeks into my LG G2 i went custom AOSP from the very start. never even touched stock. I had weird graphical glitches which i chalked up to the AOSP stuff. I also had weird touch screen issues. like double clicks when i was dragging my finger. I also had odd shaking. like if i would drag from one screen to the next and stop in the middle instead of the panes being static they would shake way way worse then i have even seen on a phone. after about 3 weeks it got to much. i went back to stock to see how it felt. i have the same graphics issues. and i think some of the same touch screen issues. Although i didn't stay long enough to really test, but the graphical glitches are there. I can reproduce anytime i want on AOSP or Stock.
Did i get a lemon?
I can post a video if anyone wants to see any of the symptoms.

What are the graphics and touch screen issues? Care to elaborate? I've had 3 g2s in about 2 weeks and have experienced the high pitched buzzing in the ear piece when making a call and the touch screen issues when the phone is used playing video or games after 45 minutes or so the touchscreen becomes erratic and the scrolling goes crazy. There's a couple videos on here showing the touchscreen issues when writing in a quick memo (looks like an EKG). Maybe a little more info on your part will give us a better idea on your problems though.

Why did you wait 3 weeks before you came to the conclusion you have a lemon? And with all those issues why you even asking that stupid question?

Sounds like 4.4 issues with the graphical stuff. Its common because we don't have a proper port yet.
I suggest you ALWAYS use your phone stock for a week or else you have no idea if its software or hardware when things go wrong.
I suggest you flash back to stock and waiting it out and see for yourself.

The touch screen issues are present in all G2s, it's whether or not a user "triggers" it that's the question. I've seen it in both AOSP and stock. So your touch screen is "fine." The other issues are not normal though.
Sent from my LG-G2 using Tapatalk
To conclude if anything is normal or no...you need to have your phone completely stock...What player911 said is the right thing to do.
So i swung by verizon and sure enough the demo model showed no signs of what my phone is doing...
btw i did say i went back to stock to test it and both the graphic issues and the touch screen issues have been present. I cant always reproduce the touch issues but the graphic glitches is some sore of faulty unit. I will try to get the to replace it on monday.

This is not true! I have the Verizon variant and I have no issues with the tough screen at all...ever?? In fact, for whatever reason (maybe because Verizon is more closed/careful/anal/controlling) I read of more issues with other carriers than I do with Verizon. So either it's Verizon, or maybe Verizon's version got a better batch of hardware while the others got a bad batch??? :crying:
Return it and get a new one. If you were at the store, I would have already done this. Its under warranty regardless.
Touchscreen is very responsive on mine. Maybe too sensitive. Sometimes I don't even feel my fingers touching the screen.

hey,
I've noticed some lines showing up on my screen... they only show once every 10/15 min and run across the vritical when in landscape mode. typically only one or two pixels thick and lasts only a moment.
Like every one my tablet takes a tumble now and again, but if it was hardware then my is it so intermittent?
any ideas?
I think this has happened to mine too but it flashes so fast that I don't know if it's happening or I'm seeing things. It's very rare though for me.

I get it every now and again, seems to happen when the screen has been on for a long period.
Not sure what is causing it, I tried to Google it but couldn't find anything.
It seems to be software guys, as before the 4.1.2 update I was getting these lines around 2x as often. Hopefully the next ota knocks them out for good.
I think it is WiFi reception strength related. In my case, they appear only when WiFi signal is weak. They have been there since the beginning. But now, not only vertical, some times horizontal lines appear as well. Horizontal lines didn't exist before 4.1.2 update. Same issue have I with my TF700. So, I assume it's both hardware/software related.

I never had this with stock rom but have had it with some custom roms, I had it with "slimbean 2.7" but since updating to 2.8 it has gone. So, it points to software.
Maybe megamoz is onto something too.
I don't think it is a faulty screen. Something else is going on.
I am on rooted stock, had them both before and after rooting.
Don't think it is related to the WIFI, not for me anyway, as I get it when browsing in the living room and I sit right next to my router so I get full signal.

that would sound like a prime candidate for me. I have been stuck in hospital for 10 days, and the tab has been on for 15+ hours at a time some days... although the wifi angle is interesting too.
just happy its "normal" and not that I dropped it
thanks everyone for you input
Yeah I am also getting them and they seem to happen more when there is alot of white background on my screen or maybe that's when I notice them more lol but as far as problems go that's all my NEXUS7 has so hopefully it is software and can be fixed with a good old update COME ONNN 4.2 GOD BLESS YOU GUYS

I see it everytime I use Flipboard, and also have noticed it in Maxthon occasionally. At times it flickers, and others the thin line will stay until I move to another page/screen.

its software. i remember seeing a post a while back about a guy who managed to take a screenshot of it. somehow. if it was a hardware issue, it wouldnt appear on a screenshot
Is anyone else having a slight misalignment on the touch screen?
For me touch is shifted about a millimeter or two to the right.
I've checked on both my N4 and my sister's N4 and both of us seem to be having this slight misalignment.
Both of us have REV 11 N4's. One was obtained through T-Mobile in January, the other was obtained through Google Play just last month.
I've checked on a few roms. I've tried CM, PA, and Stock with a multitude of different kernels (Franco, Faux, Trinity, CM, and stock).
To check:
1. Enable "Show touches" under the Developer menu.
2. Touch a part of the screen where you'll be able to see the touch bubble and hold it there.
3. Look at the screen at angle to see under your finger.
It's not a big deal, just something I've noticed when I had difficulty trying to use PIE on the left side of the screen. Although, I still would love to be able to get the screen recalibrated to have more accurate touch sensitivity to eliminate the difficulty that I have with CM's PIE.
Another question: Is anyone aware of any LG diagnostic tool to calibrate the screen? I remember back on the HTC sensation there was a file that you could load through HBOOT and get your screen calibrated from there.
Photo attached.

I thought I was just trippin when I noticed the same thing last week
Just tested and confirmed, pretty significant misalignment by about 1 cm, which is a LOT when you're talking about a <5" touch screen..
My next thought is, is this a software issue?
We need more people to test and confirm. But I believe that is what we will find. Software issue.
Anyone with a Nexus 7 on stock 4.2.2, please also test and report.
Wow never thought anyone else was experiencing this, mine seems to be off since I always have to touch a little higher than what I'm going for even nav bar.

I would think that it's a software issue. My HTC sensation was able to have it's screen recalibrated. I think LG would have some kind of tool to be able to do it.

I have noticed that my AT&T G2 is a bit too sensitive to my touches as well. It's not a big deal but it's a little bit annoying sometimes.

Same issue with Verizon model for me. Not that common but very annoying when I do notice it.
I fixed it by wiping the screen with a micro fiber cloth and doing a full factory reset. I don't know which one fixed it. It works perfectly now. Using an AT&T G2.
I've been looking for a way to fix the over-sensitivity on the vzw device. The screen will seem to scroll extremely fast out of nowhere.
I thought it was just me. When I'm texting sometimes it will put two or three of the same letter in a row from just one touch. VZW model
Occasionally experiencing something of this nature on my VZW phone as well. Not frequent, though.
Having this same issue right now. I feel like it started happening after last week's software update (verizon).
Sent from my LG G2 using Tapatalk 4.
I had the same issue when scrolling thru the screens using Zedge to look for notifications and ringtones. It was a big pain in the butt.
has anyone figured this out? I literally can't use a browser because when I try to scroll, it just zooms in. so annoying
On the phone with a vzw rep at technical support now... She said that they don't have any reports of that on a mass scale. I told her that it doesn't happen all the time and she said that it was probably a fluke... Whatever! Obviously this isn't just a problem on my phone..
It doesn't happen mass scale because most people won't address or report the issue. Just bad on verizon for not testing
sensitive touch
I have the very same issue with the touch sensitivity, obviously since i have found this thread. I find that by turning the screen of then back on it tends to reset it. I just wish i didn't have to do it so often. I would rather not factory reset my phone being how it was already a pain to make the transfer of data in the first place. Plus in theory, the reset shouldn't work being that it came of the production line this way. No amount of resets will change the outcome of the hardware that was installed, until production fixes it for the next line. But if others have found solid longer lasting methods, minus tge reset, I'm willing to test them til i simply get tired of itand replace it.
I am on Verizon and get it occasionally. I just turn the screen off and back on, and that has corrected it every time so far. Not too annoying yet, but if it gets worse I'll try getting it switched out.
I'm guessing this is a software issue, but it only happens to me while web browsing

When mine does it it happens on any Web page and I tried on both chrome and Firefox and it still happened.
So I updated to 4.4 yesterday with adb sideload. Since that I was using my Nexus 7 "heavily" and I always had "buttons stucked" on keyboard, but now it's gone and I havent experienced any other touchscreen bug.
I don't think I have had any buttons sticking since I updated as well. That was my only issue with my Nexus 7 when in was still running 4.3. It would usually have a keystroke stick several times while typing things and I haven't experienced it once while typing this entire post, which is also why it keeps going because I'm trying to keep typing to see if it'll happen, and instead I just keep making spelling mistakes.
It did not fix the touch issues that may be related to grounding. In a case or stand, both Nexus 7 devices I have still fail to see any touch on numerous occasions, even single finger touch events. Manufacturing issue I guess, but we all know how G & Asus deal with those.
Let's hope it lasts... some issues are fixed temporally.
touchscreen is definitely improved for me too.
Yeah but multitouch still fails, playing dead trigger 2 could be an impossible mission.

Never had multitouch issues, only single touch problems like quad touches innstead of one etc. (As u can see it happened again lol)
They poped up after the R update, and im waiting for CM11
I had single touch issues even after sending my tablet in for service. I had called yesterday to send it back again when I noticed the update was available for side loading.
After the update my screen is behaving!
I'm going to hold off on claiming that my issues are completely resolved but it is looking promising.

I just wanted to get a poll going regarding "ghost touches" on CM11s 33r release. When I first updated to 33r, the touch screen was great and it seemed like the firmware update fixed the issue. However, after using my device, the touch panel once again became stubborn and the "ghost touches" appeared once again.
This issue reminds me of the 2013 Nexus 7 which to this day still hasn't been resolved. It is weird how the phone will work fine and then all of a sudden become unresponsive. I notice this especially when typing, sometimes the keyboard will show a swipe gesture even though I am physically typing.
nope, never had this problem.
I had this problem 1-2 times in a month of usage. Not a great issue but it definitely existed. With 33r i experienced no more ghost touches, just some occasional touchscreen freeze (unlocking phone was impossible until the system reboot).
Issues that are making me angry are others: touchscreen responsivity and precision, for example. Typing with my 1+1 is a total pain.
working smooth & fast no problems...
had ghost swipes ever since I got CM11S and had it for every update. Didn't really get better each time.
was on stock kernal now with ak, just a BIT better but still experience it every 6-7 words.
Hope they completely fix this soon.

I had ghosting everywhere
I am so far surprised on the results. I have two friends with the opo and both of them also have the touch screen issue. Is there any info we can compare to see if there is a different touchpanel used for those who are experiencing the problem vs those who are not?
For sure. Mine still have. For me the biggest problem is the poor latency performance, the worst that i experience. Coming from a HTC one, M7. Running nightlies actually.
Have ghost touches since update to 33R, never before. Is this sw or hw related?
Especially when typing moderately fast, the screen does not seem to be able to distinguish between two touches. It kind of "swallows" the symbols I have pressed on the keyboard resulting in a disastrous typing experience. Before I had a Nexus 5 and it that respect it was definitely more precise (and sensitive) to touches. Typing without any hiccups. Just the way it should be.
Also sometimes my opo, while surfing through websites; when I try to touch a small hyperlink, it doesn't seem to recognize the interaction. I have to touch the link several times to get the screen to recognize it.
This, paired with the typing issues makes using the opo awfully complicated touch-wise. I have to artificially slow down my typing speed to lessen the erratic behaviour of the screen. A no go in my opinion and I am thinking about returning my opo and insist on a refund for the stated reasons.
This is a major problem and OnePlus better get their asses up, admit the faults and solve the problems.

Same here. I love this one plus one, but the typing issue is a huge problem for me. If they don't fix it I'll have to jump ship when I can get something new.

Agree. It's a love-hate relationship; the specs and furthermore the price-performance ratio are absolutely great but that one issue really keeps me off staying with the opo.
I will wait a bit and see how well the problem-analysis goes. Considering how the alleged touchscreen driver fix didn't fix anything at all (at least for me) makes me seriously doubt that there will be a final fix for this issue, ever.
no typing issues or lag its way faster than note3 on par with nexus 7 if not slightly smoother in total experience. since i got used to sony's xperia keyboard i'm using the kk emoji keyboard from playstore on ONO which is faster.
I used to have them all the time, to the point I couldn't get pass the lock screen.
I even though of doing an RMA, while hesitating. I decided to do a full wipe and install crdroid ( i knew the developer had them to and was trying to fix them ) now it's a thing from the past I never get them anymore.
I'm not saying crdroid is miracle fix, I'm just stating what happened to me.
If your rooted and occasionally flash ROMs it may be worth a try.
Also a friend of mine just received his today. If he has ghost touches will try crdroid again and if it works will report here.
Nope, nemas problems on my phone.
Had it for the first time couple of days ago. After rebooting the device, everything went normal.

After initial flashing I had the ghost touch issues but after a few days they went away...my 2013 Nexus 7 does the same thing and it pisses me off cause I'm rebooting the thing every couple of days to fix it.
Having some touch issues, 33r update, i don't know how toy call them ghost touch it whatever it's very annoying when i try to pull notification bar it pulls back down, and i get more typos thought it was me typing bad =)

Previously i have no ghost touch at all.. But suddenly, i got ghost touch after the update.. I dun know why man.
