Anyone nows how to fix ghost touch información Nougat, in Marsamllow i have the same problem, i hear if i install a different kernel it will fixed
There is no fix for it just ways to work with it. Turning off the screen and back on usually fixes it. It's just what it is.

Hi all,
would like to ask for advice. I've been on my N4 for close to a year, but recently I've been having some touchscreen issues. on occasion, my nav bar alone does not respond to touch and would require a reboot. On other occasions, the whole screen does not respond and requires also a reboot. Most of the time, a single reboot would solve the issue, but sometimes it requires 2 or 3. Also, there is a particular area on the screen where the touchscreen sensitivity is essentially non-existent (i.e. any button at that area cannot be activated). has anyone ever encountered a similar issue and whats your fix? I'm rooted on PSX and hellscore.
thanks!
I had have had problems with the sensitivity. I flashed another rom and it was fixed. So it was a rom related issue.

So I bought a used N4 sold as is because the seller said he had some issues with the ROM and the touch sensitivity and all it needed was a stock ROM flash. I took up the challenge and flashed stock 4.4.4.
While I'm at the home screen everything's fine, as soon as opened the app drawer there were random touches all over the bottom half of the screen. Some were shown in the center and many at the bottom left corner but most were just random. I mean like 7-8 touches per second. The same happened whenever I went into play store, Opera or Chrome. Didn't test it further since I decided to try another rom.
Flashed Purity ROM and at first glance it worked flawlessly. Not random touches in home screen, app drawer or settings. Then I flash Gapps and the same thing happens with Play and Opera.
The funny thing is that the problem persists but at different circumstances. Can't pinpoint the exact cause. Should I get a new screen and try? Or maybe something else is at fault there?
I've been having the exact same problem as you. It started after I replaced the screen and the usb flex.
Ghost touches 1-2 each second only on some apps (none on homescreen or settings). I noticed that it happen in 4.4.4 app drawer but not in the 4.2.2 app drawer. I got almost no ghost touches on 4.2.2 messaging app also. It happens in almost any app, like play store, dropbox,chrome....
I thought it was the battery so I replaced it, but it did not fix it.
I have been trying to troubleshoot the problem but I ran out of theories. I wish the best luck to find the solution, as I almost gave up on it. If you happen to solve it tell me.
I think i found out what's causing this issue.
My theory was that apps with a lot of white would trigger the ghost touches. So I tested with flashlight screen apps that only show white on the screen. As expected the ghost touches only started to appear when i turned the flashlight on.
Therefore my theory was correct.
In my case I will contact the seller that sold me the screen to see if I can get a replacement.
I've had the intermittent touch screen issue, just above the capacitive buttons and also the ghost touches.
Started about 2+ weeks ago.
I reverted back to the stock "HOME" launcher instead of the Google Now launcher and that seemed to have fixed the issue.
I will have to keep an eye out to see if it lasts.

Hi everyone. this is my first post. i may make some grammar mistakes, because english is not my native language.
I found a solution for the ghost touch issue on my nexus 4, so maybe it can help who is having the same problem.
1- Download and instal the NOMone Resolution Changer on Play store
(this is my first post here, so i cant paste de link here, but you will not have trouble to find it)
2- when asked, Allow superuser
3- open the app and change the height resolution to 1250. (it worked for me, but make some tests to see if you need to disable a bigger part of the screen to avoid de problem)
This is not the best way to keep using your phone, because you may lost a part of the usable screen, but worked for me.
Thanks!
I workaround this issue avoid using undervoling in the kernel, and avoid lower temperatures in phone, yes as you read ... this issue give my crazy when my phone was to hot and I tried to cold my phone using one ice cube in screen and back, the temperature of the phone down but ghost touches appears again, so played some videos to warm the phone again and dissapear again.
Don't ask me about how it works, or relation with screen, digitizer or battery, I don't understand but help me to workaround the issue.
Hi guys something has happened to the touch at the top of the screen its about an inch off too high. I tried flashing and wiping even went back down to lolipop but nothing is working.
How exactly does the touch key study work ? Like if its off how does one recalibrate it ? Its almost like the top menu bar has been disabled somehow...
Its a MTCD-Sofia MCU-HXD2.15 currently on 5.1.1
Cheers
Same problem here, did you find a solution?
I'm having a similar problem on lots of different vehicle where the touchscreen calibration is off while in maps and Waze. It worked as recently as 3 weeks ago and I've tried rolling back Android auto versions and no difference.
I've read on other forums that reducing the screen resolution on your phone will fix the issue, hopefully an update will provide a full fix at some point.
Hello,
I've been having this issue for the past few weeks, where my screen will turn yellow and display lines across the screen at medium brightness. At max and min brightness it works normally, but at intermediate brightness it displays varying degrees of this issue.
Have anyone encountered this issue before? What can be done about it?
The issue just suddenly showed up. I went to bed and it worked fine, I woke up and it was like this.
I do not have any warranty, so any repair would be done myself. Issue occurs in TWRP as well, independent of the OS.
Video of the issue: https://streamable.com/zrvqh
The issue has been resolved by switching kernel. I was previously on the S8 NX kernel, and now tried switching to Velocity kernel and the issue is gone.
Should be pointed out the new kernel is "flicker-free", while the other is not. Not sure if that matters, but it's a screen related change in the kernel at least.
In case anyone else comes here looking for a solution, try a kernel swap.
Edit: Nope, for some reason this works as a temporary fix but doesn't last. Issue comes back.

any luck with this issue ? happened to me now
Hi, I'm new and I have a problem with my Poco m3. I searched but I cannot find any permanent solution. I can't watch a full screen video on YouTube with any browser, kiwi, brave, chrome. I tried a lot of ROM, this is why I am writing here. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks for your time, and if I did anything wrong, it is my first time on XDA, have mercy.
