Hi, i have a big issue with Multi windows splitscreen. I want a Pokemom Go and Chrome in one screen. It worked fine for three days ago, but hour ago it stopped working. Somehow, borders of PoGo app are weird (check screen). It does not react to touches outside that imaginary box. Any idea how to fix it please?
PS: there was no update that should break it. Other apps are working just fine.

Hello everyone, I am currently having a problem with my Note 3 from T-Mobile USA (White, 32GB) when the screen all of the sudden becomes unresponsive to finger touches and instead it picks up and selects/taps random objects on my homescreen, browser or whatever window/app I am using, but as soon as I take out the S-Pen it registers it flawlessly. That also happens when the S-Pen is already removed, same scenario, no finger touch response yet it works with the S-Pen. When it happens usually, I am not able scroll, select anything, and the capacitive buttons don't work either unless I lock the device and unlock it. Anyone else is having this problem? I did some research and apparently a lot of Galaxy devices does that.
send it back to the service centre....the s pen is being detected even when it is plug in. the screen is designed to not respond to touch when it detects the tip of the s pen.

Yup. I have the same problem. Used to happen about once a day. Called T-Mobile, talked to tech support (very nice) and they said it likely an incompatibility issue with an app I have. They said even though this is an android device, a lot of times apps have issues working on new devices. I uninstalled the app I had been using when I started noticing the issue (CSR Racing) and I haven't had the problem in days. Then I installed PBA Bowling and got the same glitch last night. Gunna uninstall that game and see if it fixes the problem, if not I'll call back.
I didn't test anything with the S-Pen though.
I noticed that sometimes happens when the WatchOn app crashes. I disabled it and I'll see how it goes.

I'm having the same issue like you too. Exactly the same scenario like what you mentioned.
And I even factory reset twice with stock apps and still have the same problem!
I can't even send a proper SMS when they keyboard type by itself.
Yes! Sometimes it takes an hour to happen, sometimes it happens three times within five minutes. Disabling WatchOn didn't work, and I don't think SwiftKey is the problem since it happens even during browsing on Chrome :/

I posted the same thing a week ago and seems like there are people encountering the same issues.

This sucks.
:good:
Decided to order a replacement. That's ridiculous. I hope they don't send me a beaten up one.

After figuring it out for a while, it seems like it hanged when we "touch" using our finger.
But when I use the S-pen it works. Don't understand why
I found a solution for myself, i had the same problem and realize that putting phone into rice overnight for 7-8h solve problem, you should try.. I've been facing this problem for about 3 months and i tried every solution from every site.
Hi all.
I'm having these days a really weird issue with my G2. It was working fine while I was using 20G update, but after updating to 20H I have an odd issue with my screen. I updated via OTA (first time I do in that way) and it was successful, no errors or problems there. After one or two days I started to have problems with my screen, it was freezing sometimes while I was using an app. In the beginning happened like one per day or two for a few seconds, but now I'm getting annoyed since is like that almost every time I need to use an app.
The problem is that I don't think is a hardware problem like many others had, seems that is a software issue, so that's why I first decided to do a factory reset. Nothing changed, so after that I decided to flash a downloaded .kdz from different zones (20D, 20G, 20H from North of Europe and 20G, 20G from Open Europe). I still have the issue.
I recorded a video about my problem that you can watch here: youtu.be/5rYQiMQtpDg
As you can see, while the app freezes I still can use the sliding bar and bottom side buttons (back, home, menu) and I can open others apps that in a few seconds will freeze too. Sometimes when freeze appears there is a second issue with the screen or touch. Look in the video when I'm drawing lines, you'll see that there is a column in the left side that isn't working (sometimes seems that when I'm drawing in the rest of the screens, some lines or dots appear next to the frame). By the way, my screen don't have any dead zones. When my left column isn't working I still can slide down the upper slider.
Another thing that I saw is not working like should do is the brightness. Every time I switch on my phone is like when I bought it, with 100% brightness that I never use. Seems that my brightness configuration isn't saving or something.
I'm afraid of sending it to repair since is something that is only happening sometimes. I'm sure that they'll install everything and send me back the phone again, saying that they don't see any problem.
Any idea of what's the problem with my G2 or what can I do?
Thanks a lot, and sorry for my text. English is not my main language
Good morning guys,
I currently have a really strange problem, that started for me on Friday. I was on my way home, when i charged my phone in the car. After some time, it lost connection to the cell network, which it does every now and then. I restarted the phone and after that, i wasn't able to use a part of the touchscreen. (screenshot)
Well, i thought the digitizer got broken, but it's not that easy. I noticed, under certain circumstances parts of exactly this area are working again. This happens for example, when. I use the button to flip out the online users panel on Facebook, or view all open tabs on chrome. I can't use the search, or the url bar tho. In telegram or WhatsApp, i can click he name of the person, so the other part of the bar is working again.
What i am runnin
Paranoid android 4.4
What i tried so far:
Reconnecting the touchscreen panel to the motherboard
Flashing a new version of the rom
Factory reset
Touch recovery
Even in touch recovery the bar is not working at all.
I can't believe this is a hardware issue. Did anyone experience this?
hi. i got my Note about weeks ago. i got it imported so cant get any warranty claim what so ever.
last night i was on tomshardware website and looked at exactly this page of gaming monitors. i tried to load the desktop site but it didnt.
i scrolled down to the bottom as everyone does. and i saw this issue for like 2 seconds, and then it said that browser has stopped. then it was ok.
now, today i woke up in morning , and out of no where, after like stopping my alarm, my Note 4's half screen started flickering and the image got stuck there.
then it stopped on its own.
now i went to Samsung test menu with *#0*# and checked that the screen test is ok, spen test is ok and everything is ok.
i started a game, and it game me that flickering again. what happens is like this . i dont have a camera to capture it, so thats why adding these images.
IT HAPPENS JUST LIKE THIS BUT ON MY DEVICE ITS THE LEFT SIDE, EXACTLY HALF OF LEFT SIDE OF DEVICE
i took the screen shot and its not the software. it shows all fine.
it stops when i rotate the screen and then happens again on its own, especially in games.
i know its ****ed already, but its sunday and markets here are closed, so as a last option im asking you guys is there any solution?
i have stock, unrooted lollipop.
There was a time that I had an issue regarding ghost touches.
This happened (or it happens only) when i ride the bus and it is bumpy. Then suddenly while using it, i will register ghost touches and some random selection like i had controller it. And randomly tap on my screen. I have no extra phone that time and i was unable to record it but hopefully it makes sense.
These happened last january. I restored my phone in factory. Installed apps only on google play store hoping that the reason why it malfunctioned waa because i like to sideload apps and modify apps on my own. The next week i rode the bus it still persisted. Restarted my phone and boom. Its gone for a few months.
Fast forward to march i experienced it once more after 3 updates and i was hoping it will be gone since the latest software update clearly indicated that touch problem was already solved/addressed. I was riding the bus and it was bumpy and again... It registered ghost touches again..
I immediately went home and grabbed my other phone to document what happens but it cant replicate the error again. But since iam prepared. I rode the bus everyday to replicate it and document it. But it does t seem to be the case anymore.
I want to know if someone had the same experience where it registers ghost touches on bumpy roads. Iam documenting it in case someone reads it and had the same case as mine.
I did everything and i hope this is just a software problem.
What do you guys think? Is it software related or hardware related? Some poor optimization of the software with the sensors of the phone that thinks touches has been made if it is on that situation?
I had this problem but it was somewhat different. I would get random touches only when using the reddit app and while typing with swiftkey. The quick settings menu would keep dropping down from the top of the screen as if someone was constantly swiping down. It would get so bad that I had to lock and unlock my screen to fix it. It didn't matter if I was traveling or sitting still. This problem has gone away since the last asus software update.

Ah! Thank you for your inputs!
I was trying to replicate it if i could. But hopefully mine would get fixed too. Mine was on the latest update and hopefully it isnt a hardware problem.
Ghost touch i'm facing is 2 randomly tap on notification area while using the phone...
