hey dude
so i decided to buy this phone but after reading this issue i kinda changed my mind but i thinks this may work
i bought a Xperia Tipo for my baby brother last week and it has touch sensitive issues just like SP when it placed horizontal ( i watched the Utube Videos and it looks exact the Same) but i found a little Mod App called (Touch Calibrate) i want you test it for me and say that if that worked for you or not!

install it manually and give me report! :fingers-crossed:

Did You Check Unknowns Resources in Settings?!
it should WORK!
if that didn't work search TOUCH CALIBRATION in Play Store and let me know
Touch Irresponsive, Screen Freezes
Like a lot of users, I am also having problems with the xperia SP's touch screen. The touchscreen becomes randomly irresponsive. Sony acknowledges the problem and suggests:
"This have now been investigated and if you experience this problem I advice you to contact your local support team to have your phone calibrated at a repair center."
The problem is in live in Bangladesh and they do not have official Sony tech support centres. Does anyone know how to do the touch screen calibrations ? Any DIY solutions will be highly appreciated.

Hey guys,
Thought I'd post this here and keep you guys updated on further developments.
I live in the Netherlands and bought a 32GB version at Dixons at the 13th of November 2012
I had found the touchscreen a bit unresponsive sometimes in the past.
But couldn't really find out why it was acting up. I finally isolated the issue.
It is exactly the same as this guys vid:
(Thanks for the vid injahnet)
Together with a little backlight bleeding, I decided to send for repair.
(The problem persisted after a factory reset, no other apps were open when testing.)
I went back to Dixons and showed the problem to the Dixons dude.
He acknowledged there was an issue and sent it for repairs or replacement.
Due to the holidays this can take some time. Maybe even next year
I was about to open my tablet for a look inside one of these days, boy am I glad I didn't do that yet
Anyway to get a good view on this issue globally, are there more people that have the same issue?
You could go to: Settings > Developer options > and then under "Input" you can enable Show touches. and try to to the same procedure as in the vid. (Thanks Peterk-1)
Or you could test with MultiTouchTester like Injahnet.
The weird thing is, my dad's N7 16GB does the same.
Update 17-12-2012: Please do not test while plugged in as the device will be grounded and the issue will not occur. (Thanks dad)
Feedback is really appreciated!
Please vote in the poll above!
Cheers,
Daan
I have zero problems with multitouch while using my Nexus 7. Working just fine, but you must disable any apps which interfere with gestures or it'll steal events.
Can't say I've ever used multitouch with the N7 laying on a random object however.
But sure, send it in for repair......... I'll keep using mine.
If anyone thinks they have multi touch problems then loading an app isn't required. Just go into Developer Options and under Input you have two options to display touch and track detail.

Well... Over 200 views. And only 4 votes, which includes mine
Community feedback is failing hard.
Anyway, I'll keep you guys posted on the repaired Nexus.
At the moment of writing we know that three people are having this issue.
I know someone else with a nexus I'll check if he has the issue too.
Cheers,

Yes, i have this problem. And only while device is laying on the table.
Wow, this is bizarre, thanks for pointing it out. I can confirm it happens when it's laying on my pillow, and doesn't when I'm holding it.
Thanks for the vote guys.
By the way, it seems obvious that the Nexus should not be plugged in while testing.
However I cannot test this 'cause mine is at the shop
Would anyone be willing to test?
I'll add that in the original post (+ a mention of your name and a thank you of course))
Cheers,
Daan
Mine was unplugged while testing.

if the two touch-points got the same X or Y coordinate my nex7 does only detect one of them. i don't think this is an issue.

Anyone try and see if taping the ground pin on the wifi antenna fixes the issue? This seams like a grounding problem.

Exactly! I was also thinking of this.
Do people who have this issue also have the flickering issue!?
ecoviws buttress
Just an FYI, I installed CM 10.1 with Trinty Seven. Now I get 10 touches on pretty much any surface.
I don't have a multitouch issue, but I do have an entire band on my screen which has stopped responding to touch at times. It all started when I let my tab shut down due to low battery. Initially, the Nexus 7 neither charged (when put on charging, obviously), nor did it boot up. After trying for several hours, somehow it started charging. And since then, sometimes certain areas of my touchscreen become unresponsive to touch. Since the band which is unresponsive is towards the upper part of the screen, using notifications becomes completely impossible. It keeps 'snapping back up' when I try to pull it down, cos while I am pulling it down, the notification tray encounters an unresponsive area, so it just goes back up. Called up Google and they will be sending a replacement device. All I am afraid about is that I have an 8gb version, and they would be sending an 8gb as well, so I hope it isn't refurbished or something, as Asus has stopped making the 8gig model.
I'm having an issue where the screen, ( mostly in a webpage or document,) starts moving up and down and zooming in and out without my input.

Just tested this out and yes, my device is doing it too. Interesting. No other issues like screen flicker (except the auto brightness bug in 4.2). My n7 is c9O

community feedback is not failing hard, more like you're just starting a new thread without bothering to search if issue/topic already exist.
this isn't new and there is no fix, that is just how the touchscreen function. the N7 isn't the only device to have this.

You are kinda missing the point of this thread.
It is to see how many people have this issue.
There is no thread capturing that in an easy way unless you want to count every post.
Now please tell your brain to start functioning again and leave this thread alone if you have nothing to add.
Asus Google Nexus 7 32GB touch death zone
Hi DaanJordaan,
Found out that my brand new N7 seems to have a similar "no touch zone" issue; an area the size of my little finger on the left lower part of my screen does not seem to react to touch! It interferes with typing the keyboard in portrait mode (no keyboard problems in up-side-down portrait mode).
When I use the Easylabs Multi Touch test I can see the dot changing color when I move over this area, doesn't happen anywhere else on the screen..
Using the developer tools (turning on the two options that allows to show touch/leave a trail of touch) it becomes even more clear that this area does not react to touch! I can "paint" lines around the "no touch zone" (it actually splits into 2 touch areas using one finger around the "death spot"), and the "no touch zone" reveals itself by not showing any trail/history line of touch..
Oh yes, and it does not matter if I lay the N7 on the table, or hold it in my hand, the issue is always there.
Therefore I returned the N7 back to the MediaMarkt, and they will send it in for repairs...
I've got a bad feeling about this | - )
I am curious to hear about experiences with your N7, once you have it back!
I'll report mine here, in three weeks or so (that's the outlook...).
Cheers!

1.Turn on your display and wake app like the paintsoft.
2.Put your Z1 onto a insulated one, like rubber sheet and your Z1 has to be naked.(without any cases)
3.Wait 30sec or more.
4.Draw a line, and during drawing, touch the side panel. Left side and right side should be touched by two fingers. and cover of microUSB port and sim port should not be touched.
5.About 70-80%, You can reproduce the problem.
The movie is here
http://youtu.be/CeAw17LrdKE
This problem may be caused by bad insulating.
But I don't know this problem is occurred in all Z1s.
This problem of touch panel can be occurred variable timings.
People who playing games or using pattern lock will recognize this problem easily. but difficult for who Not playing games or Not using pattern lock.
This method can detect the potential error of your Z1 it looks no problem.
Please test your Z1. and if the problem is reproduced, you should go to store and make a claim!
and replaced one if you get, please re-test and report here.

My Z1 also have this problem. After 40seconds i even didn't have to touch this two sides of phone.
For few weeks I never saw that problem on mine so I was not worry about it but today I tested few nice games and I realized that after a minute playing the game (Minimotor or HAWX) the virtual joystick stopping working. I have to retouch the joystick with my hand or take off my hand from the phone. All the time.
My question: this is a Hardware problem?

This ploblem can solve by updating the driver software. like Xperia tabletZ.

In the next week i will buy this phone when i have enough money.

How it's possible the problem of the touch screen is because is too sensitive? I hope there is a solution via software but for there is some lack of insulated between the touch screen and the rest of the phone. That why when you touch the frame the touch respond very badly.

I think the screen react to very few electrostatic.like touching side panel.
so to make less sharp ,It will be ok. perhaps.
Confirm the problem in my device, hopefully a fix can be found, mine ain't so bad I guess cos it happens only when I press the sides

Actually, It is reported that replaced one has this issue too in Japan.
Sony don't recognize this issue yet!
I did a video by myself and I don't get it! Where is the problem? I mean where is the problem causing the touch screen failing to work. The only 1 thing what I am sure is if I leave the phone for 20, 30 seconds the issue show up with my touch screen with or without touch the aluminum frame.

Exactly, I think we are close. The problem appear after long or prolonged use with the touch screen.
No issues here, i tested for like 20 minutes and its perfect here
No issues with games, paint or the service test

Hello i have bought a used xperia Z. I noticed it has about 5 white stains on the display. You can only see the stains on light color (white,yellow,green etc.) Black color look normal. Are the white stains (dots ) on the display a big problem? It look a little bit like moisturized.Did anyone have similar problem? i will try to throw on photos later.Anyone similiar with this problem? Tried using dead pixel fix form play stor, it doesnt help anything.

they are stuck pixel sometimes working and sometimes ... and won't destroy other pixels (it s usual issue on lcd displays)
But if they are not annoying for ur eyes leave them cause fast flashing the screen and such solutions don't solve anything.
but sony will replace if it has warranty

Apply tampered glass screen protector, it will reduce/eliminate ghost touche
I'm using tempered glass screen protector but the issue is still there. Well, it may reduce that a bit though.
There are many hassles. These Z1 family support pencil touch that causes unwanted touch.
And, the touchscreen panel and display is poor.
Try this
Try this, worked for me for a few days or weeks :
Apply pressure on the digitizer, specifically in the inferior part, just like a massage ( side by side) . . after a few seconds you can verify how it works . . The only point is, this solution is not permanent. This is a hardware problem .. the real solution is replacing the digitizer. Regards

So I got the Sony Xperia SP today (Isn't really a new phone for this day but it's better then the old S3 mini) and I rooted it.
So everything went well (isn't the first device I root) but there is something that I really hate on it.
The touchscreen by it self has some kind of delay.
I turned on show touches, and I started up a game were you cannot afford any delay, the game is called VOEZ.
So after I touch a "note" in the game, I fail every single one because when I tap on the screen, it takes like a half second to register my touch.
Is there any way to get the delay lower or get rid of it? (For example, the s3 mini didn't had any delay and it's older so I guess there is some way to do it?)
Thanks.
Well, the delay might be caused by the ROM you're running.
Does the delay present on the ROM before you rooted it?

I found the problem by my self after searching for a bit longer.
For some reason the delay was there because in the display setting was Glove mode chacked.

And just for your knowledge.
The Xperia SP has a known bug, that it doesn't recponce on touch when it's on the horizon (like when its on the table)
For me flashing CM13 from stock fixes that problem
