this happened on aospgb and kushdecks rom so i dont believe its rom related...
when im typing it will start doing each letter multiple times like "sss" but i only pressed the letter once. it doesnt do it all the time but when it does i cant type because it hits each letter multiple times, i cant unlock the phone because it keeps detecting me hitting the screen multiple times but i just put my finger on the screen once, and i cant scroll because its detecting multiples. im trying my best to describe whats happening but basically its detecting me hitting the screen a bunch of times but im not. it doesnt do it all the time but when it does even restarts dont make it go away, it just eventually stops... idk. anyone have this happen to them or know if i messed my screen up somehow? it didnt start after i dropped my phone or anything, it just started out of nowhere. in the last almost two years ive dropped my phone maybe a handfull of times and ive always had a case on it, my phone is still pristine.
i had the same problem, but for me it only occured when i was charging my phone. I found out i was using the wrong charger, after i switched it everything was normal.
Hmmm good point... im not using the right charger and now that u say it, its only happened when its charging. Thanks alot man that was worrying me. Was hoping it wouldnt progress to doing it all the time

Hey you guys, ive been using my N1 for about 10 months now, and lately its been a headache because I've been facing weird touch issues since about 7 months... and its getting worse every day...
Initially I thought that this problem was caused because I installed the HTC_IME keyboard that can be found here, I uninstalled it and the problem dissapeared but just for some weeks untill a few days ago, I installed the "gingerbread keyboard" and my problem reappeared, I have tried everything, wiped, flashed, wiping the KB data... and this issue is still there...
Sometimes Im writing and when I press (for example) the "E" button the phone puts hjk.. its practically impossible to write an sms or in gtalk, because when i write the nex letter "X" (for example) the phone puts yui, so instead of ex it appears hjkyui...
Im also facing the thing that you can see in the minute 2:09 of This Video (as far I know, every nexus one does this).
One thing that i noticed is that this issue started when i flashed my first Cyano rom! (I think).
This happens 6-8 times every day, i have to turn off the screen and turn it on again, but sometimes neither this solve the problem!
Is there a way to calibrate my screen? or any app to check if something is wrong?
Im begging for your help, Its very difficult to sell this phone in my country couse everybody uses blackberry... and i dont have the money to change it... Im using last nightlie build (295).
try a different rom... we all have the same touch screens so you problems cannot be any different than anyone elses... the biggest thing i have noticed is the problem starts when you rotate the phone alot
Ill try another rom tomorrow!
any other suggestions?
I have sometimes the keboard problem like yours it's rare. so far as I know you can't fix the touch problems it is there and will be forever. when typing sometime you can touch the screen with the inside of your hand and everything goes wrong then.
if you really having issues when typing you can turn off the screen and back on most of the time it acts normal again.

no i don't have that much, really maybe once a week or two.
Maybe your digitizer is broken. i have my nexus now for a year and never had that much problems with the touch screen.I only notice that the multi touch isn't good when playing games on it.
Im using my keyboard without the prediction and since yesterday I have not had any touch issue.
Ill continue using it that way and see how it goes!
Please keep us updated on the progress. I also have this issue. Uninstalled HTC_IME and replaced by SmartKeyboard Pro which solved the issue for a while but recently I have the issue again. Not too often but it indeed is annoying... Would love to see some ultimate solution to this because other than that I am very happy with Nexus.
PS using official OTA ROM (2.2.1 for now)
do you plug in your phone a lot? I find mine only plays up if I use it plugged in

It only happens to me about once or twice a week for the last year. It happens more often than not immediately after plugging in the charger.
Of course I use the day lights out of my phone, 2 charges a day with 6 hours of screen on time a day.

Well thats odd, each of us are facing different beginnings of this annoying issue!
I've noticed it happens whenever the phone gets hot, usually when charging via an AC adapter.

well, just for you to know, yesterday I chatted with my GF for like an hour and a half with it connected to the charger and not happened to me, im starting to think that this is caused by the auto complete option (which is odd too)
after 2 days of not having any issue, my touch went crazy again, but just a little, I was not charging it, it had the autocomplete option unticked, and it was liying on my bed couse I texted a lot today with my GF.
i did not turned the screen off, I i forced it to write what i wanted it to write... then i left it again on my bed, it turned its screen off and later another message came and it was just fine...
Ill continue testing it like this couse this time the issue was very short.
Its the digitizer. Its a flaw in the N1. But Ive also had the same expierence with launcher pro.

Is there any reliable way to check if its the very source of my trouble?
Any suggestions?
It doesn't matter what app you are doing on the phone at that particular time. It's a hardware defect and just happens wherever you are at the moment.
I've had it happen on the main home screen, typing a text with the keyboard, browsing the web, anywhere. Just a quick sleep the screen resets it back to normal.

I know and understand that, the problem here is that its happening too often that its annoying...
Just to let you know, sometimes i cant even use my phone, and as you said "Just a quick sleep the screen resets it back to normal" ive done it and nothing is fixed, i even wiped to factory settings and when the wipe is completed, my phone its still the same!
Try using another keyboard like swift key or something. You can calibrate the phone in your settings menu

I've checked and some says that I need to replace it but as I dont have much cash I wanna make sure that my screen needs replacing.
My bro got me an old G1. And its screen starts to behave quite odd recently. Sometimes I cant touch anything, or it just keeps pressing itself. (In cases like when I'm typing it will types it self bunch of letters in the mid and bottom lines (the asd-zxc lines) And when things happen I have to turn off the screen and wake it again. Problem resolved temporarily.
And it happens daily, if not nearly all day
So please anyone that got experiences or advices please tell me is it the screen's fault? And should I replace it?
Thank you for your attention!
P.S: I know that nothing can live forever...
I had similar problems. It happened when my battery was low... Im pretty sure it was just my ROM being buggy.
Thank you for responding
But I dont think so. I changed to dwang's rom (donut as I remember) and it still were "lagged" like that so I flash back to CM 6.1.2. So I dont think that's the roms' fault.
And about the battery... Im not sure. Sometimes when the batts gets lower I got better responds .. quite unpredictable
And what did you do?
I attempted to install a new ROM, failed. Tried to recover my back up, and now I'm learning to fastboot. :/
After the install failed, and I had a fresh instal of my ROM running, it seemed to stop.
I also noticed that it only did it when I had the keyboard opened.
Aww I'm not lucky as you are.
Since I've installed 4 roms but none of them fixes it. I'm thinking of changing the radio Im not sure though...
Just see what other people have to say
Still no clue...
hi,
For starters I've had my G1 since it came out, been rooted for a while so i know what I've been doing.
Anyways.. I've checked the forums and I've seen similar problems like mine but not exactly the answers I need.
Basically my Digitizer is being unresponsive randomly and when this happens my entire phone just FC's everything. The first time i noticed this was when I would Charge my G1 using a Blackberry Charger when id text, the Screen would be unresponsive to touch on all of the screen and just lag on everything. So I would have to unplug it and re-plug it continually. Recently I switched to the new Cyan Rom (i forgot the number) and now it will just randomly be unresponsive with the touchscreen id go on apps and it will FC. Ive wiped and rebooted many times, ive switched roms multiple times as well. So I'm on my last resort and asking for help.
Any help is highly appreciated.

Try to upgrade to the 27.08 Radio/SPL combo. Follow all of the instructions contained within that post. It will suggest you also re-install your recovery. Do it. Once all of this is said and done, if its a software issue, it should be solved.
I had this same issue prior to the upgrade, and all is fine now. Mine didn't FC tho. If I touched the bottom of the screen, it would select something at the top. any questions or a perfect walkthrough, my direct email to my cell is in my info on the left.
<<<<<<<<<< Over there.
ah! thanks! Im actually going to try this now, and hopefully i don't fail and mess up my phone even more than what it already is. and yeah the FCs are really annoying i cant really do anything like make calls, which is ridiculous. Im also having problems with the camera as well i got those really funky colours in it. and then my regular speaker for calls isnt working unless i put it on speaker, i think my G1 is telling me it wants to die. lmfao.

Oh crap. You have the funky color camera?! That might actually be a hardware issue. But we can certainly try this out. I have the gTalk PC app, and it's up and running now if you wanna run through this.
Heya all,
So my Galaxy Mini started rebooting itself today.. Anybody knows what to do? I can't give much details only that I thought the problem could be the custom rom (CM7, New Experience). I flashed it back to stock, but it's still doing the same thing, sometimes it'll hold out for 30 minutes but sometimes it restarts and I can't even open Whatsapp before it reboots again.
All I can tell the on/off button for locking isn't always working as fast as it should. Could this button be stuck or something like that?
Also warranty is gone, got water damage from like 1.5 year ago.. Maybe that could still have something to do with it.
Thanks in advance,
Sanderth.
Update: I was just viewing a WhatsApp message and it rebooted itself again, please does somebody have any advice on how to fix this?
Bump: Please does anybody know what the problem could be? Today at school I wasn't even able to send a message via WhatsApp
Edit: I'm pretty sure it always happens a few seconds after I pressed the on/off button to lock. I just tried to lock it, got the prompt where you can enable airplane mode and turn the phone off and I clicked the back arrow, after ~5 secs it rebooted, could something be stuck behind this button or could my ROM be bugged?
Edit2: Well I disassembled my phone, probably something was stuck behind my button and fell out or something else was wrong with it.. But the most important thing is: It works like it should again, locking is going smooth now and it really feels as if my phone was better than before XD
Next time I'll open it first before opening a topic on xda, but well.. Hopefully somebody who will ever have the same problem will find this thread and fix it the same way I did

Well to be honest, it'll stick to randomly rebooting itself once in a while, less than it was before disassembling and putting it back together again though (From 5 times in one hour to max. 3 on a day). But trying this could never mess something up (as long as you know what you are doing.) At least it's possible to use my phone normally again.
For the people that don't know how to disassemble, use this: http://www.formymobile.co.uk/s5570disassembly.php
Disassemble until you've got the battery compartment of, then just assemble again.
Hey all! New here. I just soft bricked my phone, i woke up to it not booting. I tried various fw in Odin, but no success. This is my day to day use phone, I don't have anything else, so I'd like to make it work again ASAP, hopefully without factory reset.
Hi
what manipulation did you do to get there before flashing a lot of stuff in odin?
I've been just pressing the buttons all around, then I read about Odin, so I tried it. Now my battery died, let's see if I can get to wipe the cache...
Update: no success. Is there a way to get it into recovery? the old volume up+bixby doesn't seem to work.
Sometimes its because the recovery itself is error so that button combination is not working..
Charge your battery until full, then factory reset it with odin, let see if that works
But before you do that make sure you download correct fw that match your phone model. dont try all fw available there, make sure you download fw for SM N950F..
Well it worked and it broke again... Back to square one.
Your infos are kinda vague.
Did you modify your phone and it got triggered by user-action, or did it hit the fan by itself?
I think it was a suicide attempt, I never flashed before, only major thing was just a battery change in a samsung service last summer. It's weird, because since last time it turned on again, but seems like the wifi didn't want to communicate, plus as I look back, sometimes it restarted when I touched the wifi or some random setting. Somewhere else I read that it could be a motherboard failure.

This was happening to me too before my phone just started bootlooping to recovery
Well it's been a few months, so a little update: it still reboots sometimes all out of nowhere, but now I have a different problem: tried to log into a mcdonalds app and it says it detects a security issue. Not that i'll cry over it, but definitely interesting. Anyway, I really think this is some sort of hardware issue related to wifi, because every time it started rebooting, about one out of two times i was turning the wifi on or off. Also sometimes the wifi just wasn't available or working, strengthening my thought. As I read on other threads, this is probably some manufacturing/serial issue, that just happens to come forth after all these years. Probably the last time I bought a Samsung...
