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!

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.
Cheers,

Is there an app that can calibrate the xperia Z1 touchscreen since it's really like HELL! this issue is not addressed in the Sony Forums and many people from there have turned a blind eye on this pressing issue.
My concern is that is there a third party app that can calibrate our Z1 touch screen? Much like with xperia tipo, I have stumbled upon that thread and tried installing the TouchFW apk something like that but failed to do so since my phone says app not installed.
Most people with xperia Tipo have the same problem the same as the z1 touch screen problem that fails to register touch and with that screen calibration app their problem was solved.
I really hope that people here might have a solution for this one since it can really help a lot of z1 owners out there.
Thank you very much.

Still got no reply from this thread....
The touchscreen issue was happening in my phone after playing Nova 3 for a while. After some days I found out that, just wiping the screen with a clean cloth solves the problem. I used to pause the game, just a single wipe on the screen with a cloth will do it just fine.

Well, as I had this problem so I followed most of the touch screen issue related thread. This might not be a permanent fix for that but it works!
Hello everyone
I new in the forum and I wish know if someone else has had the next problem. Recently I replace the display and touchscreem from my xperia z1 and everything is perfect until after a while running a horizontal flicker begins to appear in the areas where there are lots of color or contrast between letters and background color , when I stand in a dark screen the words are more clear but flickering too.
Rule out that it may be the display because already tested with other display and the problem continues . Besides as I read on different topics all seems to indicate a problem with the operating system or overheating and video.
I tried several versions of KitKat and lollipop both for the device is C6902 , and all the fault persists, a similar experience and has had success in solving ?? I tried the thermanager solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/general/flickering-brightness-charging-t3128804 but I do not know if I was right or I need something to work properly ...
I link the problem in video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GghgVRy91aY
This is the same problem in other video with a better resolution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOklu9z-vg0
Thank you for your help ...
Xperia X Performance (F8132) Accelerometer failure & Screen Auto-rotate irresponsive
Hi All,
I got an issue bothering me since I bought Xperia X Perfomance (F8132) Mid June.
The auto rotate function failed after a while but everything goes fine after reboot.
When it fails, I use "Xperia Service Menu" -> "Service Tests" -> "Accelerometer",
then all X,Y,Z are zero and the ball just sticks and freezes at mid.
I bought from Taiwan and I can find 15 more people having the same symptom with me on 2 forums
( http://mobile01.com and http://gamer.com.tw ).
Hence I don't think it's only me and it's a common issue or common yield problem for Xperia X Perfomance.
I post here because I'd like to find more people with the same issue and raise the attention of SONY in order to find the root cause (i guess it's either over-heat causes this or accelerometer yield issue) and give a patch.
Now I'm using a APP "Rotation Control" to workaround this, but all photos cannot records correct orientation data and no auto-rotate is kinda inconvenient.
For a flag-ship and high-priced cellphone for SONY this year, it is very disappointing to me. :crying:
Version: 35.0.A.1.227 and 35.0.A.1.238 both occur

I also have that problem. No more auto-rotation after a while (1-2 days) . Only a reboot fixes that

Thank you for letting us know.
It shows it's not a regional FW issue but a global HW or FW one.
I wonder if SONY knowing this. If not, we need to address this and push SONY to work it around.
And if it is not workaroundable, SONY will have a big problem.
I have the same issue on my Xperia X (F5121) bought in Sweden. Haven't checked the accelerometer but the behaviour is the same and reboot is only fix.
I have not had any problems with auto rotation, my accelerometer works fine but my touch screen is messed up

Can you specify "messed up"? I've had issues with the touch screen also, mostly that it registers a tap while I'm scrolling resulting in involuntary tapping on links. Also it often takes a while to start scrolling, as if the screen has a hard time recognising the swipe.
I have the same problem. The accelerometer stop working 15 minutes after reboot.
Help me verify if is caused by a third party app or not.
Use your phone in safe mode for a while.
I'm from Hong Kong, the accelerometer and its auto-rotation of my x performance has the same problem that it won't work until i reboot my phone.
I dont think that is caused by a app crashing when the problems occuring in all around the world.
The issue didnt come to me when I was not yet update to 35.0.A.1.282. Please notice this problem SONY. It seriously affected the satisfaction from user of the phone from your brand.
There is a topic on the Sony support forum - see here: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-X-Performance/Accelerometer-stops-working/m-p/1158490#U1158490
At least they are aware of the problem. As soon as it happens again on my phone, I will send them my logs. I will report any development...
It seems that I uninstall the AR effects in my phone and reboot, it works again
Rotation fails
Hello guys,
I have the same problem. Yesterday it worked fine, but today, the auto rotate don't work. Very disappointing. Only a reboot can help but not every time.
Sony has to do something with it.
Gyroscope/Auto-Rotation Issue
Hey everyone,
I'm also having this same issue, but only since the most recent update from late September. When trying to make a pic display as fullscreen by rotating the phone, nothing happens, unless I reboot the phone. Then within day or two, it starts happening again. When I go to camera it loads up and STAYS in landscape mode, no matter what I do, even closing it out and clearing out the cache & force stopping it then reactivating it. It seems like a software issue that Sony needs to address PRONTO!
It appears another thread here on XDA is dealing with the same issue. I tried shenlong85's idea and it seems to have fixed the issue, but I need another day or so to make sure. If you don't hear from me by Sunday (10/23), assume it's been fixed. Hopefully the Nougat update we're all about to get any day now will permanently fix it!
The memory uninstall updates only prolong the issues. Seems like the firmware issue earlier on.
Nougat... When are u coming?

Well, we'll see. I am giving my XP 'til Sunday........if no more auto-rotate issues by then, then I will consider your idea to be gold. lol Of course, once we get Nougat, I'm hoping it will ensure that the issue never comes back period. As of this time, the issue has NOT returned.
I bought my Xperia X Performance from Kogan who sells imports in Australia from Asia and I have the exact same issues with my orientation and touchscreen. However my jumpy touchscreen only seems to occur while charging.

I tried shenlong85's idea, but less than 24 hours after trying it, I switched my phone from Portrait to Landscape to view a 16:9 widescreen pic I had in my Album, and it WOULD not auto-rotate the pic. So unfortunately this "trick" doesn't work either.
Just have to hope Sony includes a fix with the Nougat update we're about to get any day now from them.
I'm noticing now too that once the Auto-Rotate function stops working, so does Smart Call Handling. Have to swipe screen once again to take calls. Hurry up Nougat!! lol
I'm having the same issue and the only help I'm getting from Sony support is to factory reset my device :\ I'm hoping Nougat makes it's way to our devices soon. I really like this phone and this is a pretty big issue to have.

I agree Spencer. And yes Sony Mobile told me the same thing. I'll do a repair (which yes, includes a factory reset) only IF Nougat doesn't fix it. They say we're getting it "in or close to October", so I'm guessing it's gotta be coming any day now. Hopefully they include a fix with Nougat though and I don't have to do that. Getting tired of this BS with Sony. My Z3 had an issue where if I turned on Stamina Mode, it would 1) mess with my MMS (group/pic/video) text messages.........you don't know how many times I had to ask ppl to resend those to me and how much that sucked lol 2) Cause a "random" battery drain. Only fix was a factory reset. I FINALLY got wise and realized it was SM and kept it off. Found a great app called 360 Hibernation Master that did what SM was supposed to do but better, MINUS the buggy BS. But OF COURSE it doesn't work on any X series phone (at least not my XP), so I'm stuck with SM now. At least Sony Mobile FINALLY fixed that bug with SM so that's not an issue anymore. lol
It is a big issue, and it makes me not want to keep buying their phones.
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.
I fixed it now. Thanks.

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
