many problems have been occured in a short time - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Firstly, my ENglish is not very well I hope I can describe my problems clearly
I have a quite old 9505 and until one week ago outer "sim card remove error" everything was ok.
Now my phone has a touch screen problem. For example I am using phone 15-20 seconds after that soft menu buttons and overall touch screen doesn't work. I should press once the power and shut down the screen for one second after that I should press and use again for 15-20 seconds. It is quite annoying. With this problem I can not tap sometimes the correct position. For exampe shut down menu have got 4 options upper to below, restart, shutdown, screenshot, airplane mode. I would like to tap 4th position and tap airplane mode but it recognising this tap for 3th position and capturing and screenshot.
Outer this I am getting memory card ejectd errors and sim card removed errors.
What would you suggest me?

Hardware failure. Not much you can do about it. It sounds like it's time of a new phone.

Sounds like the touchscreen hardware problem I also had some time ago: when warm, the touchscreen generates fake taps in the upper right corner. Then the OS "thinks" someone tapped the "ok"/"x" button and closes the program. You can verify this if you go to landscape mode (slide open the keyboard). If this is indeed the problem, then your programs will not close, but you will instead see the Start menu (because the fake taps are now in the upper left corner).
Only solution is to exchange the device.

Two issues with blackstone...

Hello
I have two little issues I can't find soultion to..
1. My device boots, htc logo appears and then keypad shows up to enter the SIM PIN...but it closes before I input so I have to manually turn off the airplane mode and then turn cellular on...
Is there a way to fix this?
2. The topright corner cross (or sometimes even the OK) should be white (if clickable) but sometimes it is grey..is this normal or I have something bad going on...it works, it is just annoying that sometimes it is gray sometimes white...
If someone knows how to fix these two please let me know...thank you very much...
if only these two issues was the only ones....
Concerning the pin code screen that disappear, instead of put your phone on plane mode, you can just click the call button : it will display the pin code screen again.
ow..thanks you..I will try that one..
and regarding the issues...luckilly I dont have many...
1. This seems to be TF3D - when the phone re-starts from reset it wants the SIM code. But, TF3D starts as well and then takes over the screen. Any use of the phone now will give the SIM code screen. So, the other advice is good: hit the call button. I normally just wait for TF3D to do it's start-up and I normally get automatically the SIM code input screen.
2. I use http://soft.photoracer.net/docs/wktask_en.html as a replacement for the OK button. But before I never had the grey OK button. Try exploring the OK button options in start - system - task manager - button
thanks for your help....
ow and btw I hate touchflo
i have standart homescreen customized
If you don't need the security provided, why not turn off the SIM pin entry?

Faulty HD2

my Hd2 recently broke, it had a lot of things wrong with it.. 7 in total if you interested you can read the faults bottom of the post, im interest to know if anyone else had the same problems as me.
i sent it off for repair. all is ok now but on the cover letter they sent back with the phone they said the fault was "program abnormal excecution/ termination (error message pop up or etc.."" repair was "Replace main board" however i know i had a scratch on the back of the phone that is no longer there (there is also no dust etc in the bottom buttons or the top speaker), does that mean they replaced the whole device?
thanks
1) Whilst texting- The keypad is generally glitchy.
- When pushing the delete button other buttons are triggered too such as the B & M keys.
- The directional arrows do not work.
- Even though XT9 predictive text is selected it doesn’t always work.
- it takes numerous taps on the screen to start the write reply feature.
I have tried calibrating the screen and aligning it, this was unsuccessful.
2) The home button below the screen has stopped working.
3) The camera has suddenly developed an intermittent red tint, sometimes the camera will be fine other times it is not.
4) When trying to launch the camera/ video camera it sometimes says error unable to to connect. I have to switch the device off to fix this, sometimes it takes 3 attempts.
5) The phone can only be set to vibrate.
6) When pressing the phone down key to get the lock screen to appear it sometimes takes up to 30 seconds to appear.
7) The battery life appears to be getting shorter after every charge, for eg. It finished fully charging at 1am, i then left the phone in standby mode (no programs running) and by 8am when i woke the battery was a 40%

issus on the unlock screen

feel lag on when is unlocking. did any one having a same problem with me??
please delete this post...
The unlock swipe would lag for the following reasons:
1. Your wifi was turned on but is off because of screen being off. You turned on the screen which makes the phone re-enable wifi and connect to a network. This process will lag the swipe animation.
2. You used some kind of app (ie. JuiceDefender) that would disable APN (3G) when your screen is off. Turning the screen on again will make the phone to try to reconnect to 3G and this will also lag the swipe animation.
3. You just turned on your phone and because things are still loading at startup, doing the swipe will lag.
Tip: Try to wait for 5 seconds after turning the screen on and then do the swipe motion. It should go back to normal.
If none of that applies to you, do a factory reset =)
this is my second time to hard reset it but still the same.
I often find that swiping doesn't unlock the phone; the arrow won't go all the way to the edge of the screen (it sometimes just stops halfway). When that happens, I press the power button to lock the screen, then try the process again. 9 times out of 10 it'll work fine the second time.
This happens when the WiFi is off, and I am not using any APN software, nor have I just switched the phone on.
It doesn't really bother me, unless this happens when a call comes in, and I can't answer it! (it often takes me a few swipes to answer a call, and I have to swipe it slowly and carefully)

you might have a problem with your screen where some parts wont respond to your touch
download any drawing programs " i find magic marker " is the best from the market place. its free. and tap dots all over your screen, if there is/ are parts that doesnt response to your tap from the first time, that means u have problem with the screen and its not accepting your touch input. which is why your swipe doesnt go all the way sometimes.
Yes there is lag on the unlock screen. I see it as just bad programming by SE.

My swype keep changing direction, anyone nows how to set it to a particular side?
@mirdones - it changes sides when you start with your finger at the top of the swipe arc and slide your phone across the screen (left to right or right to left)..
@everyone - my swipe unlock occasionally stops about 3 quarters of the way along.. all I do is re-swipe from where it stopped and it's fine - that said, it doesn't happen as much now that I have stopped using task killers and startup auditor.
I find that instead of a slow swipe more of a flick works well for me.
Does anyone know if its possible to disable the se lock and just use the android one?

Phone Unresponsive after camera app is open by double click

After I have opened the camera app with double click I am not sure what I click on as I am trying to handle to phone to take picture a blue line appears scanning the phone which starts form top to bottom and then bottom to top and the phone becomes totally unresponsive. You cant unlock the phone and you cant take any incoming calls etc.
Not sure what happens after 30 minutes or so when you double click the phone then it goes back into the camera app and after you take a photo it works. If you don't take a photo and click back button the blue line starts scanning again and phone will become unresponsive.
Ntt sure what this is.
Phone SM-G9287.
I found what is happening.I have lock pattern setup to unlock teh device.Now when i double tap the home button it goes into camera app and then suddenly the blue line appears whcih moves top to button and bottom to top as if it is scanning.The phone will become unresponsive as i mentioned above i.e touch screen wont work but u can still take photos using up and down volume button but not by touching on the screen.
To overcome this you have to press back button and then press the hoem key 3 times and the touch scren becomes active again and hence now if you draw the lock pattern the phone will recognize it and unlock the device and it works normally.
Not sure this is a bug or not but very confusing.Can anyone try teh same if you ahve SM-G9287 phone and confirm if you are also seeing the same.
phone freezes up when utilizing camera, Touchscreen becomes unresponsive.
I experiance the same but My phone is loked whith fingerprint sensor.
My 10 day old phone freezes up when utilizing camera (activatd with double touch of home button. Touchscreen becomes unresponsive.
Nothing can be done to get it working.
Tried every hardware button, which seem to work as designed.
the solution Vravik mentions does not work with me.
Only working option i can manage to do software reboot the phone with power button combined whith volume down key.
but after booting the screen is still unresponsive. see:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-hbOHAuFhE
I was advised to do a factory reset and just after starting up the phone again and register myself the screen froze up again.
Does any one have a clue on this
I have noticed this issue as well
I have noticed this issue as well. But after doing a full reset and latest software update, I didn't notice this
