[Q] display hypersensitive - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
My phone got a broken screen, but I got a replacement device from the insurance.
Trouble is, after a while with screen on the screen seems to become hypersensitive - it's nearly impossible to enter text through the display keyboard or just to zoom and move a webpage
After switching the screen off and back on again immediately it's OK again for a while.
Anyone else seeing this behaviour? I reckon it's a hardware problem, but maybe someone has a different explanation for this problem?

Do you have any Screen Protectors? Just the Original ASF?

I didn't change anything with the phone except for the ROM (can't stand stock ), so it's still the original one.
What does ASF mean?

You should have the Anti-Shutter Film on your screen with the Sony Logo, many reported sensitivity problem after remove it. If you have ASF sometime apply another Anti-Glare Screen Protector on it can help (like in my case) with the touch screen.

concave touch screen !

Hi
can anybody tell me how to resolve that problem ??
Unfortunately I had the habbit of keeping my phone in my jeans butt pocket, even when I switched to Diamond touch screened phone I kept doing that, but I realized that the screen got some slight concavity on it that even reflects as irregular pattern of colors seen only when screen switched off or when on but from a sharp viewing angle.
How to correct that ??? any ideas ???
Thanks
Replace the screen.
Change phone carrying habits.
It is a hardware issue, so not easy to fix. Beware that the screen is multi layered (touch screen) so it is possible that any physical shape alterations will seriously change the way it works. It happens that screens go weird when there's dust & debris between screen and the outside body of the phone...
Thanks for your reply
Is it worth it to replace the screen ?? or maybe its better off selling it for less cash then buy another one ?
I have noticed that there is a matrix of visible small dots 2 mm apart from each other, I guess this is the touch-sensing system.
Yeah, the touch-sensitive layer got squished. It should still work fine for now, but over time the touch sensitivity may get worse. The only way to fix it is to get it replaced. If it's still under warranty you should replace it that way, better than selling and buying a completely new Diamond. If not, you can replace it yourself with this: http://mobile.brando.com.hk/prod_detail.php?prod_id=03449&dept_id=088&cat_id=0695
Thanks fhsieh for the info and link.
I will replace it when it fails eventually, now I am releaved and I know that I've got a solution

X1 Screen problem.

Anybody have this problem with the Screen:
Before doing HARD SPL, my X1 have a great screen, it's all dark when open a black picture. But after HARD SPL, my screen show some brighter pixels at the corners and another at the middle. These brighter pixels locate exactly the same at the colours of BOOTLOADER screen.
I report this problem because I have 2 X1 and after HARD SPL, both of them have the same screen trouble.
I don't know where the problem begins. Does anyone have the same? How to fix it?
No issue on my side - I'm using 0.72Olinex.
mine is also the same after i've hard reset a few times....when booting the upper left n right corner of the screen seems fader than the centre...
Well, when I do get these issues, a soft reset solved it for me.
No problems here. I'm using 0.72Olinex

Mine too have some brighter pixels in the corners (most brighter in top right corner). I don't know if this is a issue of Xperia because I've hard SPL my phone after 10 minutes I've got it.
Cheers!
Just do a software reset. Sometimes my screen flickers like crazy, a reset solved it.
Sooo, some users have this problem but no solution...trying to reset my X1

For me it doesn't work. This is how always the screen appear, not after a while. Since I've hard SPL my phone I've hard reseted and soft reseted the phone for many many times.

Flash back Stock SPL but the screen is still being this issue.
I've actually seen this issue with many TFT screens. They all look great in the beginning but after some use you notice the brighter colors around the edges. I don't think SPL affects this.
But that's just my experience/view on this.
i had allways brighter corners of my display... since i put my xperia out from the box... and i notice it only when screen is all black (movie begining, boot etc.)
same problem
same problem here.......i have top left and right corners more bright then rest of the screen......this problem is from the date i brought it and unboxed it..
so i want to know whether it is a hardware screen problem or software problem...
even i have done hardware reset as well as updated the firm ware by SEUS
since my phone is still under warranty...so i would like to know whether i should get the screen replaced or keep it as it is..
please reply asap!!!
Its not a fault of the screen, and its not a fault in the software its called backlight bleed. Most tft's have it some way or another.
Its because of the way a tft screen is lit, just google it.

I don't think it will be covered by warranty, its just a perk of the technology. You can try though, let us know how you get on

ATT Tilt: Changed broken screen, now touch doesnt work

Hello, I am a true noob so please forgive me if I sound dumb.
I had a broken screen so I bought a new one on Ebay. I changed it perfectly, it looks good but now when I touch the screen it acts like I touched the top left corner (in portrait)no matter where on the screen I touch (so it opens up the "Start" menu). In landscape it acts like I touched the top right so it opens up the drop down menu with all the running programs.
I would really appreciate some help. I try re-aligning the touch screen but it does not recognize any touches at all. I have to soft reset the phone to get out of the re-align program.
I don't want to hard reset because I have read many cases where the phone gets stuck in align program as it is trying to setup and they have to install remote access or something to get around it.
I would like advise on whether it is the new screen or the phone. Is there something I can check for inside or should I send the screen back for a replacement.
Thank you for your help.
Having replaced the touch screen in a Palm with success, I would say that...
You either have a problem with the connector for the screen, recheck the connection
Someone sold you a bad screen.
Something else is wrong with the device.
At this point I don't know that in your position I wouldn't do a hard reset. What is the worst thing that can happen? The device is already broken in it's current state.
Good luck.
Thank you
Thank you very much for your help. I will try the connector. if it does not look damaged then I will return the screen.
Did you replace just the screen itself, or the screen and the digitizer? More than likely your digitizer is broken aswell. If you replaced them as a set, request a new one from wherever you got it, and if you just replaced the LCD, then you need to buy a digitizer aswell.

Well, I only received the screen. I cant figure out where the digitizer is on the tilt so I don't know if I changed it or not. Does any body have any picture??
I think I read somewhere that it all comes as one piece(the screen and digitizer), but I can't confirm it.
Indeed they most of the time do come as one peice, so if your connection is good on the mobo, then I would say that the digitizer you recieved is bad. The digitzier is the super thin peice of glass that covers the LCD screen.

I was just having this problem until I lost it when it continuously costed me a win in Real Racing 3 lol. Do you have sweaty palms? Or a screen protector? Mine is pretty old and would change it to a new one, I think the sweat piled up so it blocks some touch response and ghosts a touch somewhere in the screen, anyways, in the meantime I tried THIS and it somehow increased touch detection.

thanks man i tried and im waiting to see if it works !!
It wont fix, its manufacturing fault. Tempered glass will reduce it from happening.
Did you remove the original protector with Sony logo?
Remove the original ASF with Sony logo (antishatter film) as it is such a scratch prone. Replace with tempered glass and those touch issues should be history.
