This may be a problem beyond the scope of android, but seeing as I'm running it, I thought I'd try here first.
I've noticed that the lower left hand side of my screen has a "dead spot" where touch is simply not registered. To illustrate, I went to screen calibration's test screen and drew a straight line along the edge of the screen. (See Attachment)
I've tried recalibrating the screen (manually and resetting to default calibration) as well as wiping data and reinstalling the system. Reinstalling the system worked once, but then the problem came back and subsequent reinstalls did not fix the issue.
I'm running Incubus26jc super froyo [RLS 12] on the 15-07-10 340X480 Froyo Kernel.
Anyone else seen anything like this? As far as I can tell, the problem is not getting any worse. Currently, it's only a hindrance when trying to use keys in that region, but I can work around it by switching to and from landscape. It's a bit of a hassle, so I'm hoping someone may be able to shed some light on the situation.
I was sure it was hardware until the system reinstall fixed it, but am now baffled as I can no longer replicate the fix.
I have not tried reinstalling the kernel but will at some point in the next day or so. I'd like to avoid switching back to WM to check if the problem persists, but may have to... we'll see. Doing everything I can to make this phone last until the Incredible month of February when I'm up for an upgrade.
dont know the issue resolution... but i have the same with my touch vogue.. and in the same 'area' apparently as well.
hard for me to hit the 'a' key on my keyboard. hehe
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one... anyone else?
Bottom right corner for me... I was able to calibrate around it but it took a few tries.

The sensitivity across my screen was inconsistent some time ago. I found that years of my abuse had taken a tole on the exterior of my phone. It eventually got worse and I bought a new housing (with a new digitizer) on ebay for a reasonable price. If it is hardware then it really isn't that hard to fix if you like taking things apart.
If you're sure that win mo accepts input from that part of the screen then nevermind my post. I would play with a painting app though and investigate the hardware further.
I may be talking a little out my a$$ with this part but.. is it possible that in calibrating your screen the os may change it's settings on how hard you have to press and such also. that may be how you got it working.
In any case, my investment in a hew housing was well worth it considering how modern my old phone has become thanks to the developers here.

In my case, no - when drawing a straight line down or across the screen, the line starts 'moving' away from the stylus (like the picture in the OP).
Gah... now it's shutting itself off randomly and the dead spot has grown. Not good at all.
Yeah, mine was better for a while then 'slid' again. I ended up swapping the digitizer with my other Vogue and things are back to normal.
Sent from my Full Android on Vogue using XDA App
I have another vogue, but am weary of doing anything like that. How hard was it to get done?
All you need to do is switch the front half of the housing rather than the digitizer itself- it's not hard. There's a teardown guide somewhere in the forum, Google Vogue teardown and it should be at the top.
Sent from my Full Android on Vogue using XDA App
The only thing that worries me is that my spare vogue exists because it was dropped in a muddy puddle. I'm hoping the water damage isn't too bad. Guess we'll just have to see.
it is really annoying
I have the exact same problem and I too thought it was a hardware issue till I saw this Thread. I was ignoring it till two days ago when it started really bugging me. Now, I don't even need to press any button and it automatically gets pressed around the curve and I have a google search box there, so it keeps on searching for eee or sss randomly and started draining my battery. Is there a proper fix for this?
I thought I'd chime in too... I could never seem to calibrate the touchscreen properly in either Android or Debian. Changing the screen resolution (i.e. msmfb scaling) seems to have no effect, whether it's 240x320 or 640x480. Any area within 5mm or so of the edges of the LCD will register as the edge, making "A" and several other keys on the virtual keyboard impossible to hit. Passing calibration values to the kernel didn't seem to fix anything, but it's possible I was using them the wrong way...
i have the same kind of problem on my Kaiser... i think its realted to hardware... either the housing or the digitizer...
I am experiencing the same problem on X10 mini pro. the same screen spot exactly, i have to try very hard to get z or x or shift to work. Sometimes when I try locking the screen and unlocking it back, it works.
update
so after a very long time with this problem i decided to change the digitizer and problem is gonne. visualy the broken digitizer had nothing wrong with it. The fix was fairly easy though, there is no glued parts involved into getting a new digitizer on the u20i.
Touch Screen
I just bought a brand new Cubot One and it looks more than perfect! It has just a little problem with the touch screen ( I think its the software, need ROM change). There is a dead line on the right side of the screen that touch doesn't work at all. Any solutions? Anyone faced that before? Can I fix it myself or do I have to send it back for replacement? Is there any video or guide that shows its done?
I uploaded a video on YouTube to show the problem but i cant post it yet.. (new member)
You can write "Cubot One touch screen problem" and it's the 1st one.
Thank You!
Hello,
After a month of using Note, I take the bug, that make device unusable. Touch screen press themselves, without of contacting of my fingers in the left bottom corner (near button 'z' on screen keyboard). And it become more and quickly.
But this problem have the "solve": when I connect the phone via usb and charge it, bug falling away. But if I disconnect, they return.
I try a lot of roms and kernels, but problem have not solved.
In the program "Multitouch vis test" i find that sensor take pressure in pixels placed 1108-1109 y and 95-120 x coords. So, maybe I can stop processing of touch sensor in that rect? How can I do that and can I do that at all?
Maybe charging let the screen sensor to be less sensable? Can I do this via programm (or kernel)?
And I don`t understand is it the problem with screen sensor or usb?(usb module is mush sheaper).
Sorry for long thread and bad English.
Thanks in advance, Giggsoff

Just saw your video.
Looks really weird.
How long does this bug exist? From the beginning?
your sensor is very sensitive
I got that after month of using (two weeks ago) when playing "Order & Chaos Online", or maybe I start notice that. In the bottom right corner of screen (in landscape orientation) the button, that mean fire, was located. So I press it fast. But I get massages "select the target" when I don't press any key.
I was in hospital, when I notice problem, and it didn't falling away, when I connected the charge. But when I back home, connect there phone to charge it is disappeared. I mean, that it was result of my operations (I open the phone and clean, reinstall os), but it was only because I had connected the phone. Now, I try to use S-Pen, cause it lock touch screen, but it's hard and don't a way out. So I am going to return the phone. It's hard, because I am an international buyer - from Germany to Russia. Intresting thing - when I open my box I see, that on charge was words in Russia (maybe cause in it )
It's going crazy
Returning it back is a good solution, I think.
It's definitely a hardware problem.
Ok, thank you. I will do it next week. Sadly lose that amasing phone for a month or longer, but I shall have to do it.
When I had returned my old Galaxy S it just took 10 days until I got it back, so let's hope the best
Hi all.I bought my galaxy note almost 2 months back.This is my first android phone.I have used iPhone 4 before buying this beast.I must say its awesome.However lately i have started experiencing a little problem.I have noticed that at times while typing my note's screen( Right hand corner) became unresponsive. I had to press the screen a lot of times to actually type a single letter( it was the GO button actually.) After struggling with it for 5-6 minutes it started working fine.After a few days i experienced the same problem again.I took my handset to the service center but the screen was working fine then.
I face this problem sometimes . i noticed that after locking the screen and then unlocking it solves the problem for that moment.Is this a software problem or hardware.
I wasn't able to convince the service person that my device has the problem.How can i make him convince and get the handset replaced.
Any help would be Highly appreciated. (The problem area is actually the place on screen where application icon is situated.)
Is the problem there only when you charge it? Because, there are known issues with many smartphones where that is the case. If it is, then I am right there with you, and trying different chargers I heard will alleviate the issue.
No the problem is not when i charge the device.I face this problem very rarely but not when charging.I would like to mention that the charger provided with the device was very slightly bend on the charging end as if it was forcefully inserted in some device.Though it charges the device without any problem.
Sorry, don't know what else to say. Good luck though.
I have had the problem with the bottom right corner becoming unresponsive to screen taps .This usually happens when the phone is not in my hand but is lying on a soft surface such as a pillow. However the minute I pick it up in my hands, the problem goes away. Strange. I had my note replaced under warranty, only to find the problem re occur on the replacement phone after a few days.

I'm having the exact same problem and thinking of taking it back to the service point. However, could it be rom related?
I'm running LA4. GOing back to a backup of KK5 alleviates the problem.
Something else I've noticed is that when left on a surface the application
button rarely responds but as soon as I touch it on the sides it works and when Ialso plug the usb cable it also works flawlessly.
A friend of mine has the same issue, but it only occurs if the device is laying flat on a table which is odd, he plans to have yet another screen replacement but will probably wait a few months due to shoddy quality control.
I had this issue since the 1st day. It became worst during charging. Have tried every old and new rom with no luck. I though it was a screen issue where I even applied much pressure to the affected area hoping it would help but no luck.
But the issue went away after I flashed Abyss kernel 3.9 via cwm. Now the right bottom corner is as sensitive as the left bottom corner. You might wanna try a different kernel 1st before sending to the service center...
If I remember correctly one HTC phone had similar problem, screen was unresponsive when lying on table but as soon as u pick it up it worked fine. It had something to do with screen/digitizer not being grounded properly.

I got my handset replaced last Saturday, but i am facing the same problem with the new handset.Are you sure that by changing the kernel the problem will be solved.If yes then how can i change the kernel of the handset ?

Definitely a hardware problem because when I took it to Samsung service centre, the first thing they did was to flash the phone firmware. Only when the problem persisted, a replacement was given.

shot in the dark here, do you have a case on your note? I was going nuts on the first few days with my note using a flip style case only to find the damn magnet was causing the touch response issues. Took the case off and haven't seen the problem since.
After further testing it seems in my case at least it was definitely a kernel issue with cf-root kernel la4. Replaced it with a different one and problem solved.
Same problem here, put it down and bottom right corner doesn't respond, pick it up, responds instantly like rest of screen. I thought I had some kind of insecure Note that needed to be held or something. Last few days it was really freakin me out to the point I was purposely putting it down and then pressing and pressing and pressing the back button...nothing...pick it up...works with one slight touch, I was like WTF? What the hell could cause that???
Somewhat relieved to see I'm not the only one with a clingy Note. I'm going to wait and hope ICS fixes the issue, if not I'll guess I'll have to learn how to flash.
Right-hand corner of death
Thank goodness I'm not the only one in the world with this problem.
I first observed the problem when i upgraded to LA1. I was loving the improved battery life like a puppy until i noticed the bottom right part of the touch screen was as dead when placed on a flat surface. It started working again after I had picked it up, making me wonder if it had a "Hey I'm being hand held" feature, but it would still trip out when i'd type an SMS or email.
Called the Samsung service center to ask about it. they said they've never heard of such a problem and that I should just bring the phone in for software downgrading since my Note was ok till I upgraded it. For them, it was a firmware problem so replacing it was not on their priority list.
I ended up downgrading myself to KJ3 (using odin) which works fine. Unfortunately, i no longer enjoy the improved battery life or one-handed keyboard config.
No choice now but wait for ICS and hope it works flawlessly.

This is definitely a problem with screen. I got mine replaced an hour ago and did the LCD test. The new one is working perfectly fine (with and without flip case).
Try the LCD test . *#0*#.If the test fails get the hand set replaced.

Outsyder,
What software version are you using?
Tried the screen test and mine works flawlessly on KJ3. Since I'm from southeast Asia, I don't have any other updates available except for LA1 which is buggy on my Note.
I only discovered the touchscreen issue yesterday doing the test of the other thread. So, i would like to every z1 owner to answer this pool to know how bad things are and if we can try to find a solution, since i think Sony won't.
So, please answer the poll and post any useful information. I'll start.
My phone model is C6943, I currently don't use case and I'm using a screen protection. I can do the xperia touchscreen test without touching the phone body without problem and also doesn't have problem with pattern password.

Pool? I think you mean "poll"
My 6902 is completely screwed. At first I used a screen protector and the problem wasn't too bad. Then I removed it when I took the phone in to get another issue fixed and soon after that the problem got very bad. I was traveling so couldn't go back to the service center. Now it's a bit better, randomly works and randomly doesn't. When I was home in cold weather though it seemed a lot worse than it is now that I'm back in India where it's warm. Not sure if temperature is a factor, or could be conscience. But a few weeks ago it was so bad you couldn't type even a two letter word using Swype.
Also, I now have a part of my screen in the form of a horizontal line where touch doesn't work at all. No single touch and no drag. Completely dead. Taking it to the service center soon.
You should vote on the first option, then

It's not.
I got problem unlocking with patterns, scrolling pages and when I play some games after few minutes it stop working so I voted the first option. My phone is back to Sony, I hope they know what to do and at last it's Made in China.
Please, post if you use case and screen protections too. This could help understanding the problem.
Additional data : Z1 is being handled in a leather case, back and screen protector removed ( not the one with the logo, the plastic ones that makes your camera blurry )
Touchscreen problem seen in the game Alien Shooter, after some playing, the touch screen becomes less and less responsive ( i tap a button to shoot and use some onscreen joystick to move ) - both become unresponsive/less responsive as you play and the phone gathers some heat ( you can feel the touchscreen becoming hotter )
i have a simple tpu case, i had a bit of problem when playing all touch-based games (not ones with gyro like asphalt).
ever since i got the case it's better, i have the ASF and nillkin matte screen protector

I did not use any case just a chip screen protector. Anyway on a good healthy touch screen the screen protector should not influence the touch screen respond.
Hey guys, I have also this touchscreen issue, and I would appreciate if you give a feedback about warranty service, if sony accepted the problem and replaced a touchpanel or not, and also if the replaced touchscreen is better or not. I´m also thinking about sending it back for warranty repair.
I have also found that my phones touch screen is temperature sensitive, when it get cold or warm it just refuses to detect touch actions. Try it yourself put the phone into cold/hot water for 5 second, take it out, quickly clean the display from water and test the touchscreen. I first tought this behavior is normal and I didn´t cared until I started to play games. After 15minutes of playing the touchscreen bug every time appears. But also after a while its randomly disappears. So this thing is strange. (the bug appears identically also when I have my phone in a plastic case)

Same here. I sent my phone back last week to the store where I bought it 2 months ago. They will send the phone to Sony Center but the time for repair or replace the device will not be 2 or 3 days but from 2 weeks to no eta. When the phone will come back to the store they will send the phone to me. I will post if the problem persist or not.

They should be aware about this issue even on the new device so at this time they probably will check that but if they return a phone with the same problem, I will send it back again like many did. Someone had to replace the phone 3 times and I will do the same.
IYeah, you will be a long time without your phone though. I think I'll wait a bit since i rarely get the error and actually only when i try to reproduce it. How bad was yours?

I was able to reproduce the problem in many ways, Touch Screen Test, Opening the phone with Patterns, Scrolling Pages or with Launcher instead of switch the page it was opening the applications and at last when I was gaming at one point the touch stopped working and I had to wait, so this made my mind to send it back. On daily use was all ok but in some circumstances was frustrating.
i had the problem with cm11. and when I retored to stock then the problem was gone:S
I'm on stock and I got the problem.
Today for the first time I got the problem when writing on handrite. So I thought about using my phone warranty to get anotehr one. But it don't always fails when i do the method to reproduce it. So, how do you test if your new phone is working and how do you prove that it isn't? I mean what if i take the phone to warranty and it works?
And for you who already changed phone, it is working?

Hello. Since few weeks I have extreme problem with ghost touch issue on Just top of the screen where the notifications are. I've turned on the programist options in order to see where it happens.
It looks like multiple ghost touch on the top edge on hole width. Sometimes the area respond to my touch, but most of the Time does not.
Happens random, case or screen protector is not the problem, tried all the options.
I have found some solutions from pocophone, but neither of them works.
Disabling gestures, miui optimalization, screenshot gestures, non.
Tried factory reset, updating to miui 11, nothing improved. After factory reset no problem for 1 day, not sure if there is a correlation.
I Will try to record the problem when it Will happen again.
Do you have any advice? I have warranty but at this moment would like to try all avaible solutions. Thanks in advance.

Here is my video how it looks

it happens randomly, but when its happening the only way i can stop it is tighting it as if choking it. i dont want to send it to warranty.....
Well I am going to send it to warranty next week. I dont like the fact that I Will he without the Phone for a month, but hope they Will change the screen and it Will be fine.

Im the same, just noticed, after 2 days without issues that i was recording a telegram audio and it happend, idk its kinda clueless always
Man, definetly it has something to do with software, just a few moments before posting this i had the issue and it didnt want to leave so i had to restart the phone, first time this way.
Guys I found out what's causing the issue!!! It's not software or hardware. If you have the original Xiaomi case that comes with the phone it causes the ghost touches! I tried removing it 2 times and each time I put it on I experience the ghost touches and each time I remove it they stop for 1+ day which means that the case is causing them. My guess is that tiny particles are stuck between the case and the phone making it do this.
had this on my previous phone, had to rma it

My problem happens even without the case, and I used Nillkin Nature. Phone is in service currently. When it gets back I will tell you
Lol, how can this be? I believe you, though.
But oem case doesn't even touch the screen properly.

Any update on your phone? Touchscreen problem solved?
Problem arrive when using 3 finger swipe for screenshoot. there is solution on net about this problem, instead 3 finger swipe just use power buton and vo- for screen shoot
Ho boy, Looks like this is a common issue, I thought it's just me and I had to live with it with this ghost touch, Particularly when dragging the notification screen and clicking on the settings it won't respond had to do multiple times. S/W update, reset nothing helped. Last week one genius broke my screen and I had to spend and replace it. After replacing the screen I'm not noticing this issue anymore.

As I wrote, tried everything, also disabling screenshot gesture. Problem is hardware, after warranty screen replacement everything is working fine.
At first also had problem with dragging down notifications bar, screen was not responding. Then I turn on touch location in developer options and saw that there is ghost touch in that part. Day after Day it became more disturbing to the point I could not use the Phone.
You can buy whole screen on Aliexpress and change it by yourself if You dont have warranty.
I hope Xiaomi fixes this for those affected. The Redmi 5 Plus had widespread problems with the touchscreen which is why I bought the Mi9T Pro. Not had this myself but I'll be fuming if it ever happens to my Mi9T Pro.
I've still got the Redmi 5 Plus and it's been pretty horrific - the issues started whilst it was in the warranty period and then continued/worsened from there on out. I could kick myself for not getting it serviced in-warranty. Xiaomi essentially sold a lot of people faulty devices; many complain of ghost touching / non-responsive behaviour over on the R5P XDA sub-forum like it's a ROM bug.
I'm also facing this issue of phantom touch or ghost touch.
It's really annoying. I guess screen replacement is the only solution as I've tried almost all options mentioned in various internet sources.
Xiaomi sucks..!
