Hi, every time I charge my phone It's very dificult to use, because it turns really sensitive I suppose.
It's almost impposible to write an SMS, because the letters I haven't even touch appear on screen by them self. Or it starts jumping back and forward in the menus. It's difficult to select an icon.
I just have to disconnect it from charger so that I can do anything.
Does any one have this issue? and how did you solve it.

I remember someone had this issue with HD2 when he was using a custom charger (not the original one)
If you are using the stock charger and you still have this problem, then you might wanna send your device back to service center, since i certainly don't have this problem.

What he says. No issue using my own HD7 while charging, although I'm using a cheap third party charger. But definitely try it with the charger that came with your phone. If no joy, you have a faulty phone and should take it back.
Hey guys i just bought a nook color and had it shipped to my country but i think i am already regretting it now.
The touch screen starts behaving very weird randomly at any times, it automatically registers touches and keyboard automatically typing own it own, and what ever i touch just goes straight to hell and this continues as long a i don't lock and unlock it again.
Even when i am reading it automatically starts zooming.
I was think about rooting it and installing a custom Rom, will that fix the problem? because giving it back to B&N is not an option for me.
Also i don't have screen guard, and the screen is always smudged with fingerprints, can that trigger this sort of behavior?
I'm using mine in Australia and have a similar problem but only when using the supplied USB cable to charge it.
I've heard stories about faulty USB cables which might be the case as I don't have this problem when I use the cable for my desire. The problem with this is that the cable isn't long enough for practical use and the supplied cable apparently has extra pins which would explain why it still discharges (although slower) when using my desire micro USB cable.
For now I'm limited to only using my nook without the cable plugged in but I'm thinking about finding another cable as sending it back to B&N and then paying to ship it back here isn't really a viable option.
Let me know if you figure something out though.
Well the one with usb cable is a known issue and u can still use it otherwise, mine just happens randomly at any time, its almost unusable.
Does installing a custom rom help?
It wouldn't hurt to try. I know some kernals make changes to the touchscreen sensitivity but I don't know whether that would apply to your problem or not. A nook is very easy to un-root anyways so as far as I know (and don't quote me on this), you should be able to return it if you absolutely have to.
Don't give up though. I'm loving mine and for the price it's an awesome little accessory when it works.
Hi,
Make sure to clean the touch screen - last night I had a different looking
smudge on my screen that was causing huge problems - as soon as I cleaned
it off, back to normal. Are you in a humid location? Condensation will cause
problems too.
Also you may want to search for 'calibrate' in the forums, there is a way to
recalibrate the touchscreen sensitivity, I believe that this is mostly for
low sensitivity at the corners though.
Here are two links I found:

My touch screen acts up as well. I turn the screen off for a couple minutes to "reset" it. It will work OK for a little, then it goes back to wonky.
Hey guys i finally found a solution to this problem, well my touch screen is behaving normally when its not not connected to the power cable. I hope thats a solution good enough for you.
Just go to
h**p://nookdevs.com/Recalibrate_the_NookColor_touch_screen
I tried all the custom roms but that didn't help very much, so i tried this on CM7
and so far my screen is giving totally normal tests results when not plugged in and lets hope that it stays that way.
My daughter had a similar wonky-screen problem when she plugged in a particular set of portable music player speakers. Not another pair she has, just that one.
And I was able to replicate it on my nook. It wasn't specific to her nook.
okay, it seems that my excitement didn't last that long but
After a lot of testing, it turned out that the only problems was my oily or moist fingers.
so i got a screen guard and tested it for more than two hours and i haven't had any problems yet. So even if i do see that happening again, once in two hours is not that bad.

Hi,
Lately i am experiencing a lot of troubles while typing a message or just unlocking my lockscreen.
The touchscreen respods bad, sometimes it starts moving out of itsselve... Its really annoying to work with the phone like that...
Someone facing the same problems?
Suggestions? Fixes?
Btw. The phone is stock, nothing changed or replaced...
The onling thing i did was removing the shaterproof film (and my Sony logo )
Try repairing it with Sony's PC Companion or Sony's Update Service first.
remember to backup your stuff before proceeding.
Do full wipes.

Did you try to shut the phone down for 30 seconds and restarting it, seems to fix many unusual android issues.
I have noticed sometimes that my phone on the odd occasion does not repsond to screen press.
I am also experiencing the same problem.
Did a factory reset but still the same problem comes occasionally.. any solution ?

I've had this problem only sometimes when charging outside...When u feel that the touch isn't working as it should,put on your earphones and look out for a low buzzing sound..if u hear anything,then unplug the charger from the wall and check in another socket..hopefully the problem in my phone was that current was leaching onto the capacitive screen so if I touch just once,it registers a number of touches..hope this helps u get rid of the problem

That may be the solution to the problem you had but this isnt the problem here , it happens when whether the phone is charging or not and I think themichelanne is having the same problem.
Power off the phone with power+ vol up - wait for 1 vibrate followed by 3 vibrates and leave the phone then wait for 30 second before powering on, solved it for me....no problem in touch till now and i hope it does not come in future.
BTW This phone is really really full of problems.
Also happens to me when using some chargers
I bought my unbranded UK Xperia Z in Expansys, since I live in Portugal they sent a extra charger for the european standard socket. I had this exact same problem with it, the screen was extremely unresponsive and unprecise while charging. Now I use the charger from my old N900 and have no issues. Also, charging from a lower volt/amperage source like a computer I have no problems.
Since the capacitive screen is very sensitive, a low quality AC-DC adapter will generate issues (possibly due to the current/voltage not being 100% stable).

Could be a bad screen protector.

Im also experiencing the same problem. So annoying, especially while texting. Xperia Z's touch not proving to be how it should be.
This happens with this phone for me, and previous android phones. Usually its just the app open not responding to touch events, but my softkeys still work and I can force kill and restart whatever im doing. Sometimes I have to reset. It seems to be happening more frequently since updating to 67, but its not often enough really bother me. using a tool like romtoolbox to increase the amount of touch events android can process seems to improve it somewhat.

Have you found any solutions for this? I have been experiencing this since 4.2.2 update. I don't know what happened. Can you please explain what's wrong and what's happening? Have you got it fixed yet? My screen freezes frequently so I'm unable to use the phone.
I have been experiencing this problem since a long time. But I have found no solutions for it. I took out my screen protector and the freezing thing got to normal but still it freezes sometime, but more when the screen protector is on. I'm pretty sure this problem is caused by the screen or the android farmware. I'm downgrading my OS, please reply to this. Mine is C6602. C6603 doesn't experience any problems like that.
How I fixed my Xperia Z5 touch screen
Hi everyone,
So, my Z5 touch screen was not working at all anymore, I have tried every manipulation recommended on the internet but did not succeed to get it working that way.
Here is what I did to get it fixed eventually:
- Installed sony companion
- Launched the "fix software" program (I don't know the exact name of the program in english)
- Followed the steps (took a while, something like two hours)
Then my phone rebooted, but nothing, still the same issue. Tried taking off the sim card, rebooted and same problem. Then, I put it back in the phone, and for some reason, the touch screen decided to work again. Although, I lost a lot of data in the process, but worth it.
I don't know if it is a general fix, but on my phone it just worked that way. Although, I have noticed that my phone started overheating something like two weeks before the touch screen problem appeared, I assume those two problems are linked in some way. Still did not find any fix for the overheating problem except putting it under cool water or let it cool down for 10 minutes.
I hope I helped with my post, good luck for those who are experiencing this issue.
Guys i read on some forums that Mi3 has touch problems like over touch sensitivity and many users are facing it...is there any user here who facing it or it's an hoax? I have ordered one yesterday and i am worried about it..i was fed up of touch on my old phones..please help
I am also experiencing this touchscreen sensitivity issue. Even just hovering my finger on the screen it already responds. Glove mode is off, even tried it while its on, still the same. Did a calibration, no effect. Anyways, it just causes some accidental touches but it does not mess up the entire experience.

its a myth or because of a faulty device.
if it occurs only while charging then it can be the power socket that you are using. (usually occurs if your phone i still plugged in after it has been fully charged. happened on my s3, galaxy s duos and grand duos as well)
could be because of using local charger, faulty battery, basically anything that can mess up the voltage and interfere with the touch screen (but only while charging) very rare chance almost one in a million that somehow a faulty battery causing this.
no such problem on my dad' Mi3 and i ordered it during the first flash sale of Mi3 in India. no issue or problems in the phone so far.

I am having this issue of mis-touches while charging.
I touch somewhere and it actually gets touched somewhere else.
Using latest stable rom v23 (India) and using stock charger.
What can I do to solve this? Take a replacement of phone or the charger?

you can try different charger and different power socket which will eliminate faulty charger, cable or irregular power supply. if even after testing all this you still have problem better take it to nearest service centre because if its battery's fault let the service centre guys take care of it. don't do anything that may void warranty.

I have tested it with my Note2 stock charger and it still has same issues.
Still will test it out for some days and then decide.
By the way the phone is not one month old so should I take a replacement from flipkart? Or go to a service center?

Go for a replacement. drop an email right now before 30days time period is over. If you are facing this issue only while charging then there is very low chance of it being device fault.

It is a battery fault I think but since the battery is non removable can't do much.
Is your charging point earthed properly.. Mis touch problem is caused due to improper earthing
hum does it have touchscreen problems?
i mean like the ONEPLUSONE?
if so i don't want it. i mean i didnt chois the oneplusone cause off that. my screen has to work 100% fine or i'm going mad

Yes it is earthed properly coz the others phones charge without any issues. I even checked the charger. Its all fine.
I had ghost touch problems when USB charging from my laptop...it was cuz I'm using a third-party charger for my LAPTOP charger...when I remove the laptop from AC power, no ghost touch...
So basically, I doubt there is any problem with the device itself (except for the fact that it is so sensitive to improper charging unlike other devices) but I don't think getting a replacement will help. Just use the supplied charger, on a properly earthed socket.
I had this same touch problem. Actually the problem is that the touch misses. What I mean by that is, draw a straight line from one end to another and in between the touch misses and you get a broken line at many points. I cheked it using the Hardware Test function and going into "Touch screen Test". Start to draw a line and see what happens. It will miss after every 1 sec or so.
So, i tried to find the cause. And i came to know it mostly happened when the phone was put on charging and mostly made the phone unusable while charging. It also occured after taking the phone off the charging if it was overcharged. So I used charger of Samsung Note 3 and voila. The problem is gone.
Summary : Charger supplied with Mi3 is piece of s#it. Dont use it. It will damage the screen with static charge that is left on the screen after charging. Get yourself another good quality charger.
I have noticed this problem. There is touch input even while hovering finger about 3 mm above the screen. I don't mind this problem that much but it does become a minor annoyance sometimes while typing. I don't want to apply for a replacement though as the phone is flawless otherwise and I've heard that even the replacements also have the same problem. I have not yet removed the protective screen cover which comes with the phone so I don't know whether that's causing the issue.
Update: I have applied a tempered glass screen protector and the problem is still present.

I noticed yet another problem. The multi-touch is OK for about 4-5 fingers. But above 5 fingers, the touch gets haywire. Ghost touches, touches not getting registered, touch points swapping, etc start to happen very badly. Is anyone else facing this issue? I tested using antutu benchmark.

Go to hardware testing and then to touch sensor and hit menu button and calibrate
My mi3 touchscreen is fully working after 7 months (and i hope even in the future).
Hi,
If you are experiencing serious issues like miss typing and random unwanted button pressing by the phone then this is for you! I recently woke up and found my phone spazing out and not being able slide the screen up properly. So this is what worked for me and hopefully will fix your issues too!
1. Install any updates that need doing. Restart phone.
2. Still have problems then turn off glove mode ( settings and then display) and clear and wipe cache. Do this by holding down the up volume key on the side and power button - wait until the screen goes black and then it should appear in recovery mode. Use volume buttons to select the language and the power button to enter. Go Wipe and Reset and then Wipe Cache. See if that works. If it doesn't please look at Step 3.
3. Now try refiguring and calibrating the touch screen through the hardware menu. This was painful for me as all the buttons i wanted to press hit another key! but eventually got it. Try to key this into the phones key pad and call: *#*#64663#*#*
4. You are now at the hardware menu. Find touch screen and then the black screen appears where you can your finger over and draw. Use the button next the home button to get the start calibration menu ( looks like this 三)
and then hit start calibrating and wait for it to work. I actually need to go into setting to change button layout as only apps appeared when i pressed there....
This then solved all the issues and my phone now works perfectly
Let me know if it worked for you!
Hi Guys; I recently got my new 2nd Generation Moto G but after setting it up and using it for 20 minutes or so I noticed that sometimes while scrolling through settings, contacts and webpages, that when i am swiping over a horizontal band in the exact center of the screen, the sensitivity of that region of the screen becomes very unreliable and the phone will often interpret scrolling as a press. While scrolling in my phonebook it has a tendancy to call people, when browsing the web it has a tendancy to press links i never wanted it to, and this same behaviour is repeated regardless of what application i am in.
It certainly seems to be more frequent and prominent while I am charging the phone, regardless of the charge current. I have charged it from my pc, 1000ma wall adapter and 850ma wall adapter; all with the same results.
Sometimes turning the screen off and on again can rectify this, but its usualy back again in no time
I have tried factory resetting the phone, with the screen protector both on and off, while on charge and off charge and while making sure nothing else could be interfering with the touch screen i.e., a case.
I only got this phone from ebuyer in the UK 3 days ago, 2 days earlier than it was actually ment to come! so its a real shame im having these problems, I've already spoken to Motorola about it and they have advised me to RMA the phone as they cant give me a definitive answer as to wether or not this is a Hardware or Software issue.
Has anyone else been having issues similar to those that I have experienced with their own new Moto G devices
I would RMA, mine is fine.

Unfortunately my phone displays this behaviour both on and off the charger. It does however display the issue more frequently while on charge.
The chargers I'm using are all 5v which is typical of a phone charger. I have one at 850ma which charges painfully slow, I have another at 1000ma which charges much more quickly. And I use my Computers USB ports to charge at times, no matter how I charge the phone the problem remains.
Sometimes it will work fine for an hour or so then it will go insane on me. I have requested RMA with ebuyer. Had the phone only showed this issue on charge I may have been contempt with it, but the problem can happen anywhere, anytime and for a brand new phone that's not acceptable.
@ xDDen: have you tried charging the phone from any other source besides the Samsung charger you have?
yes now am charging with moto g's charger and it is working fine now without any issues

Mine actually didn't come with a charger. I was a bit surprised, but checking the Amazon page (for Germany, since I bought it here, though not from amazon) reveals that this seems correct/intentional. It did include the usual µUSB cable though (and it's not like I don't have enough USB chargers).
For completeness sake: I don't have the described problem, no matter if plugged in or not...

Been having a problem with the screen, mainly on the back soft button part of the screen, keep finger on it and it multi presses like a mad thing, doesn't happen all the time though, was driving me crazy. took off the Ultimate Shield screen protector and the problem went away, put the shield back on and the problem didn't come back, then couple of hours later (today) I got the ota update and the screen goes mad again, took shield off again and the problem continued, a few minutes later and it's all fine again. now (a few hours later) still all is fine.
Problem is I was all ready for doing a RMA to Amazon.co.uk for it, stuck on what to do now as if I send it back and they find no fault.

Same issue here, but without any screen protector. OTA update hasn't changed anything. Sometimes it works and sometimes the screen recognizes double/triple taps where it should be only one...

Well the touch screen issues got way too much for me so I returned the phone to Amazon uk and got a refund, bought another moto g from Argos the same day I returned it and I'm glad I did, everything is ok with the new phone, no screen issues at all.
Moto G 2014 Tocuh Screen issues
Same issue here.
Bought phone 1 week ago from Argos. Initially fine, then suddenly cant use the swipe down notification bar.
Turned on the Show Touch indicator in Developer options and it clearly shows that the screen is registering the touches about 0.5cm down the screen from where I am touching. So you can never hit the notification bar when its doing that. I found that turning the screen off with the power button and then back on again usually clears the problem.
In the UK the phone only comes with a USB cable, so I use a variety of chargers.
I think mines going back as not functioning properly
I also having same issue you should post your emei. It might be I purchased defective from one of previous user having same issue. I'm at Singapore.

Bought phone 1 week ago from Argos. Initially fine, then suddenly cant use the swipe down notification bar.
Turned on the Show Touch indicator in Developer options and it clearly shows that the screen is registering the touches about 0.5cm down the screen from where I am touching. So you can never hit the notification bar when its doing that. I found that turning the screen off with the power button and then back on again usually clears the problem.
In the UK the phone only comes with a USB cable, so I use a variety of chargers.
I think mines going back as not functioning properly

Me too! I am very sorry to learn that it is a hardware problem.
I'm afraid to take it to the service center because the problem is intermittent and technicians could not detect it .
Any of you have solved?
If it was a hardware problem we could try asking a kind of compensation, I don't know, some free accessories, or maybe the change of the device...
Had a problem with mine, it would go mental pressing the back softkey, press it once and it would just keep doing it by itself, so a problem with lower left of the screen, sent it back to Amazon for refund and got another one from Argos, this one is mostly alright with the screen touches but will sometimes do a double press or think a press is a swipe anywhere on the screen, it's not been so bad that I kept it, but now other problems like the memory shortage making apps close is starting to really get to me, also the screen rotation get stuck in landscape now and then, even it sometimes goes to landscape by itself.
In the process of getting a different phone as this is starting to annoy too much.
