[Q] Help.......!! Touchscreen is acting weirdly....

Two months on my spice mi 410 and the touchscreen has started to act weirdly. Sometimes it becomes totally unresponsive and sometimes mistakes a glide as a tap and vice versa. Have tried stock froyo & gingerbread, TJ's RC2, CM7, MIUI but the problem still remains
It all started the day I flashed CM7 on it and the touchscreen has been like this ever since. Have tested it on all the kernels as well. The touchscreen is very laggy and it stutters quite a few times while scrolling through the app drawer. Answering calls is a pain as the slider keeps on going back from half screen.
I had a screen protector which I removed and the problem went away only to come back after an hour. I am really pissed as I am not even able to answer calls, any help would be greatly appreciated
P.S. I also gave the phone to the service centre and they returned it after 5 days saying nothing was wrong with the phone, I am going crazy

hi
Yesteday i removed my screen gaurd and the screen going crazy stopped
so i can tell u 100% ud be happy with the phone on removing the screen gaurd
I flashed the rom 13D rooted it and removed the screen gaurd and at last the phone seems to be quit fine now.So go a head remove the Bl***dy screen protector

the problem actually was that screen gurad sometimes get air bubbles though which are not visible .. so when we touch the screen the bubble get pressure and try to move to other corner of screen that's why touch gives such auto typing errors
remember to click thanx if u find post useful ... it get counted yaar

I have sweaty fingers, so slight sweat ruins the touch sense
And yeah no screen guard and cleaned touchsceen
Swyped from my MI 410 using XDA App

i too have sweaty hands that's why i have got a cotton piece inside my phone's pouch and whenever i feel i clean it keep a piece of cloth that comes with the screen guards always with u if u use a capacitive touch screen... dont apply screen guards becoz airbubbles also make screen feel like its been touched though it doesnt make any sense

I tried ur formula and.............................. it worked....
the screen is almost 90% normal and it is functioning normally except a few glitches now and then, just using for the last half an hour, will let you know how it goes after using it for a few days......
Thanx for helping me out buddy, I was all set to throw this phone at the wall, keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn't go awry once again....
BTW did u succeeded in getting ur phone up and going..... saw ur bricked phone post...... all the best for that..... and once again thanx for helping me out.

ya mine is bricked ... i submitted to the service center they said i will have to call them today in the morning then they will let me know the stats... hope piece would be replaced

finally the screen works but not without some innovations from my side.......
I noticed that after cleaning the screen it would work fine for half an hour or so and then again went back to its weird self, so I finally decided to try something new, cleaned the screen once again and then covered it with an transparent adhesive tape, the thinnest and clearest I could get in the market, and now it works like a charm.
I guess the screen had developed some deep love for the sweat from my sweaty fingers which was causing the problem to reoccur, been using it now for the whole day with heavy usage and it hasn't let me down till now......
All's well now.... loving my phone all over again and ICE CREAM SANDWICH........ yumm....

Yes... the sweat is the main problem... just keep the screen clean. As long the screen is clean, then it will act normal.
+ MIUI also will help

Ressurection
I dunno if anybody's gonna reply as the phone is a lost legacy now :crying:
But I broke the touchscreen over a year ago... and I miss the phone... so gonna do a digitizer replacement
Is the Huawei Ideos X6's digitizer component gonna be compatible with Spice CSL Mi410?? I know its the same phone... but there's a minor digitizer size difference i guess ( maybe also some touch driver issues?? )
Anybody who's done the ditizer replacement for this device??
And I also do remember having wierd touchscreen issues.... Has anybody tried a matte screen guard??
I think it might just work... as matte works good even with sweaty fingers

Multitouch crossing axis

Hi,
Is anybody else having issues with the multitiouch when crossing axis. See below videos from youtube. This looks more like a software issue that will affect all devices. You can test with a multitouch tester app
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gz27tAD1IBQ
Edit: Try the test with the tablet laying down on a flat surface and also try holding it on an angle and report results. It seems to be occuring alot when it is flat.

If this is anything like the Nexus One, this is a hardware limitation that can't be fixed. I can't believe that they would use such an inferior multi touch sensor at this time. Even my Galaxy Tab (the first ever Android tablet) has proper 10 point multi touch.

I ran this a day or so after I got mine and I had that issue but when I run it now it works fine.

just downloaded a multitouch tester app from the playstore and it works fine. I can hit up to 9 fingers before it starts getting weird and slightly jumping about.
I used to have the HTC desire which had the same problem as the Nexus One, that was annoying as hell, but this, so far, is great.
I am on Modaco Rom with a stock kernel.

Both of my Nexus 7s exhibit this same behavior when I use Multitouch Visible Test, but I have noticed no issues when playing games or doing anything else for that matter.

Non issue on my N7, rooted stock.

i don't have the device yet but after crossing axis, do the two touchpoints work as normal or do they flip i.e the bottom finger movement is causing the top touch circle to move and the top finger movement causing the bottom circle to move? this was an issue on older generation phones

That is my video. It does flip but flips right back . Its just very erratic. Shows extra touches, flips them and doesnt hold steady ( flashes)
edit
It also happens with more touches aswell. for example 8 then it wont read them at all to i lift them up when i cross axis

haha thanks for the video. Yeah i thought i would post it in here to see how many people have the issue. So when you say it flips and then flips right back, you mean that it eventually switches back to the correct touch points where it is able to detects your two fingers correctly right?

Works fine here in two different multiouch testers. I do get the 180 degree flips in Dead Trigger though so I'm thinking there's something up with the game itself as well.
Edit: It works fine so long as the N7 is held. Flat on its back on a surface and it glitches as shown in the video. Intriguing. Anyone want to do some follow up testing on this?

I get 180 flips on my Galaxy Nexus as well, so I'm guessing it's software!

As long as the axis aren't crossed it registers my touches correct

wsrider: Did you see my edited post about mine only occurring when flat on a surface? I'm curious if yours is erratic while held as well.

It depends on the angle you hold the Nexus7 it starts swapping and getting crazy in one position, but sometimes doesn't.
As zinfinion says, on flat surface it gets buggy for sure. Sometimes in other positions.
Can anyone with KANG CM10 put their nexus7 on flat surface and try to replicate the video?

I tried a euroskank cm10 kang it made no difference which rom I used also tried paulobrien's rom. same results

I just tested mine and it is doing this as well. I had noticed erratic behavior while playing dead trigger and occasionally the keyboard not picking up key presses. I don't know what to do, if I should try to get a replacement or wait for a firmware update.

So should we return it to Google(hardware problem) or will they fix it with an update?
Everyone please download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.batterypoweredgames.mtvistest and test

i have edited the OP to explain the flat surface scenario

I've tried to do it, but i couldn't replicate the issue.

Everyone having this issue please check your HW Version by booting into fastboot and checking. I have this issue and have HW Version ER3.

[Q] Screen cracked, touch not responding properly.

Hey everyone.
A few months ago I dropped my phone for the first time. It turned out that the screen had gotten a large crack down through the middle, running all the way from the top to the bottom. I tried using it, and the touch capabilities didn't seem to be affected, so basically it was just cosmetic at first.
But this afternoon, after having used it lightly since morning without issues, the phone suddenly started responding weird to touch. Whenever I touch the screen, it registers touches all over the screen, and I'm not even able to dial in my pin code after rebooting.
Does anyone have an idea what might have happened, what is broken, and how much it will set me back to fix it?
BTW, the phone arrived with a red pixel, I noticed it once when booting up, but thought it was just a bug or something. Later I found out that is actually a fault with the phone, and most companies have dead pixel policies, I'm wondering, is it possible to return the phone for a new because of the red pixel?
Thank you for your time.

I think it will be a little hard to prove that dead pixel after being cracked. If you have some skills, you can change it yourself, its not very hard and you can find the screen on the internet.

That does sound good, but aren't the glass (The outermost layer) and the touchscreen two different things entirely?
Thank you.

Well what do you know, it started working again! Well, atleast for now.
Thanks for the advice

...I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's the huge crack down the middle of the screen? :good:
Seriously, though.. capacitive touch-screens measure changes in the resistance across a thin layer on top of the glass. So if you bend it somehow, or damage it (say, stretch it because the glass underneath cracks), then the resistance won't be picked up, or it will be registered inaccurately. So it might work for a while, or work reasonably well. Know a guy who smashed his iPhone.. sat on it, actually.. and it worked with "cracked" glass (that was held together by the layer on top of the glass, right) until he bought another iPhone. *shrug* He talked about it a lot, but it didn't seem to really make a difference on the actual phone.

Support me if your screen got dust

Hi all,
i just get back my p880 after replacement screen since the dust under the screen, but guess what?
It happened again just for 1 week.

This is a quality issue on this unit! and i am not the only 1, my girlfriend also having same problem from day 1, and mine too.
Before sent in , i did ask your staff! your staff say no, this isnt quality issue, so far i am the only 1. i take it at that time.

Too bad, i dont have a pro camera right now. and also hard to capture by camera.
and i believe those p880 with this issue will be more dust after certain usage.
just 1 week, there are 2 medium dot under screen. from my exp last times, about 1-2 month, there lots of dust and big 1.
really make me so sad. what a product with this stupid issue!

i have the same issue too but its really slight. the dust are hardly seen under normal usage and only when the screen is off and im looking for it.
not something very irritating but yea, it shouldn't be there. btw my Optimus One had this problem too but it was really a thick dense line of dust from the bottom left corner of the screen.
edit: added photos

i have only one and barely notice it

i know where is it, and send before. i post here that because i believe it will happen again after second service.
previously i emailed, they said sent to their service center.
in the service center i asked,and they said no this quality issue on other p880. what i feel is nonsense, just other people lazy go for it.
And purposely go there for same problem, i am quite unhappy, because wasting my time to go and back.
And they just replace the window glass, i dont think can fix permanently, since this is a common issue for most people, wasnt?

Hello I have the same issue, in my P880 I saw specs of dust two days after of purchase, now 2 months later I have many specs, some are very annoying at sunlight. Sadly in my Country I do not have technical support from LG.

they will replace the window( the front glass) not the screen. however, since this is defective, i requested to replace another phone under the singapore lemon law. but still not yet replay from last friday sent in

Hurry up. Once I have the same problem with my optimus swift, the delay for taking mobile to service center coasted me additional money for replacing screen and glass.

How i' fixed one dust dot.
Hello
Today i noticed white dust point between my screen and glass of phone... and.. i was pissed off!!! because phone is one month old!
Tried to calmdown ... but every time when i looked on the screen i saw nothing but that white dot...
So... i don't take any responsibility for this "tutorial" on damaging your glass or screen or phone...
So... turn off you phone ... using your pointing finger make speed hard taps on dust area with little bit bending of whole phone.
With this method i managed to move dust point from middle of screen to bottom edge of screen... and with more bending and taping on edhe area
dust spot is disappeared. (it took me 2 minutes of tapping)
I konw it sounds crazy but it worked and i'm happy again

You ruined my idea of build nano-vacuum cleaners for that!!!

Isn't this problem partly due to the fact that there's a large gap between the display and touchscreen itself?

I've been contemplating getting this phone for a while now but this puts me right off. My SGS doesn't have this problem as the display and touchscreen are bonded together.

Please, could you explain more accurately ? I really wish to remove these dust and i'm very interested in your method

[Q] Screen won't unlock during phone calls.

Anytime I make a phone call my phone locks. I know phones typically go black when it's at your ear, but when I pull away, it won't wake up/unlock. The only time it unlocks is at the end of the call. I set it up so that the power button will end my calls but that doesn't really fix my problem. If I have to use the dial pad during the call, I can't.
I read that the proximity sensor might be blocked by a phone case. I removed mine and it's still not working. Any idea what it can be?

Do you have a screen protector? If so, remove it and try again.

I am something similar happening, when I remove the phone from my ear after a call I cannot end the call because the phone is locked and I have to unlock it with a pattern before I can end the call or wait for the caller to hang up.
Interestingly I also have exactly the same issue as I had with the LG G3 as well, I take a photo and, if I do not have WiFi, the Nexus 6 turns off, it does it every single time - it's fine if I put it into airplane mode though. As this was the same thing that happened on my LG G3 and no one else is reporting this on Nexus 6, I am assuming it must be an app I am installing ?
Is that possible ?
Simon.

I have the same problem, it's really annoying. My phone won't wake when I take it away from my head and it doesn't respond to the power button until the other person hangs up.
Hopefully it'll be fixed with an update.

I just now am having this issue too. Here's another thread with same type of thing I posted in: http://androidforums.com/threads/black-screen-after-answer-call-on-nexus-4.671499/page-2
Long story short since I already related my post there, I haven't had this problem on lollipop 5.0.1, now after sideloading 5.1, I have this issue. Screen protector is on, but never was issue before. Now all the sudden it's an issue. I feel like it has to be a software issue. Guess i'll need to test few more times before taking off or cutting screen protector; will update with more news.

Same issue for me. Never had this issue before the update to 5.1. Wonder if I can go back. I have had the phone since early December.
A little testing. Holding the phone away from my face, the screen immediately blanks when a phone number is dialed. Tried rebooting - no help. May try a factory reset.
Very annoying!

Definitely is the screen protector screwing with the senors like everyone is saying and you guys are simply ignoring. I had the same issues off and on back on 5.0, 5.0.1 and on 5.1, but on 5.1 it was permanent. As soon as I took the protector off, everything worked as normal.

As a brief work around - you can go settings - accessibility - select power button ends call. Works for me till I decide what to do. I have a screen protector on and yep it's covering the prox sensors. Once removed it works as normal. Need to find a new protector that does not cover.

Rooted, stock, with screen protector.
Was working fine in 5.0.1 now in 5.1 I have two sensor issues
1) Ambient display does not work at all. When I pick up the device or when I receive a notification sitting on a table.
2) When I receive a call the phone goes completely black. The screen will not turn back on until the call ends.
I do not want to remove the screen protector until I know for sure that is what is causing this.

A2CKilla. Much thanks. I did read, but it was odd it went from 0% to 100% failure rate after the sw update. I work embedded sw and that is very uncommon for a sensor. I wanted to make sure since I just flashed this morning.
I cut down the protector and everything is good.

*****UPDATE*****
Well A2CKilla, we all just wanted to avoid the inevitable and hope it was a software issue we could just "fix" instead of being a $10, god forbid more, for a screen protector. Always try the more simpler things first than to destroy others first (which I accidentally did btw with my amazing tempered glass, now I must find one that doesn't block the sensor. In my professional opinion, if a sensor worked while having a protector over it on a previous android version, why in the actual F*** would it not work on the newer ones, UNLESS they increased/decreased sensitivity on the code somehow? Well that was my first line of thought anyway.
Also tl;dr PROBLEM WAS INDEED SOLVED BY TAKING OFF TEMPERED GLASS (that previously wasn't an issue at all) AND NOW ALL IS NORMAL.
ps. sensor is literally right next to the top speaker grill on the left side. Best to find a protector that doesn't block that.

*****UPDATE*****
Well A2CKilla, we all just wanted to avoid the inevitable and hope it was a software issue we could just "fix" instead of being a $10, god forbid more, for a screen protector. Always try the more simpler things first than to destroy others first (which I accidentally did btw with my amazing tempered glass, now I must find one that doesn't block the sensor.

I really wasn't trying to sound rude at all with what I said, but seriously, there's many a thread about this issue way before 5.1 even came out, and every single time the screen protector was brought up to be the issue, but everyone had to try to find 101 ways for it to not be that, granted my tempered glass protector was less than $5 and I've already found one with the proper cut out for again, less than $5 so I was fine with discarding it, but for so many people to really try and deny something that was the clearly the problem really was sad for a moment. Once again, not trying to sound rude at all but this wasn't the first rodeo about this issue

Wow I never had an issue on 5.0 or 5.0.1 with my tempered glass screen protector. After spending all day thinking it was a software bug and reverting back and trying multiple sources for stock images and ota for 5.1 I decided to remove the screen protector and it worked! Cant believe how 5.1 made the proximity sensor sooo sensitive.

Hey can you link me where you bought it with proper cut outs for sensors? And to clarify its tempered glass I'm after. Thanks

This is not acceptable behavior for the device. Mine worked fine, 0 issues before update. Now ambient display is broken and in call the screen goes black. This should be a non issue. My other phone has the sensor covered with a glass protector and it's not a problem at all. This can be fixed, since it was working before. Taking off the protector is not an option for me since I don't have a replacement right now, and should only be a temporary fix at most.

so it's not acceptable for a device to not work properly with something it was never designed nor intended to have? and maybe you were a lucky one because there were many people having this issue and I also stated that it was an off and on issue for me until it was permanent after the 5.1 update. Also, that's another phone, not the nexus, every phone has different settings for their sensors. And technically speaking it is an option for you to take it off, are you forgetting that your screen is gorilla glass???, a type of glass they developed to be scratch resistant, outside of some dust here and there, I've notice no difference having taken mine off until the new one gets here
