5800 touch screen life

What is the expected life of 5800 touch screen.
Is it "4-wire" or "5-wire" resistive touch screen?
Here is a comparison of touch screen technologies in short:-   
http://www.softtouch.co.in/compareTouch.htm
So as you can see life of the two types of resistive touchscreens is very different.
Also how much does "a milion touches" translate to in real life?
Should i be playing BOUNCE on 5800?

It seems only 4-wire Resistive touch screens require caliberation.
Since 5800 has caliberation settings the screen must be 4-wire Resistive touch screen.
Thats bad  :-( 
So I can't play bounce.(don't want to lose the  screen)
And Global Race was never playable at its horrible framerate.

  • My 5800 touch screen is not working properly.

    Hi,
    Frequently my 5800 touch screen is not working. Some times I am unable to use the screen. It's just hung. The call, menu and disconnect buttons only work during this time. Can any please let me know what might be the problem.?

    Dear all,
    I had the same issue with my nokia 5800, finally I found very interesting thing, I have been doing everything to bring my phone back to original  condition where simply I can touch and access the phone.
    Actually the issue was with the thin plastic piece which was put on the touch screen for its protection. I was struggling to touch and access the phone but i coudnt for almost 2 weeks, it was directing me to bottom left corner touch buttons of the phone and automatically opens and activate functional which I didn't want.
    Solution was, I simply removed the thin plastic layer from the phone , Now it works fine.
    Hope this will help.

  • 5800 touch screen response

    Sometimes Nokia 5800 touch screen does not work when I get an incoming call and press the accept button.
    Did anybody share the same experience ?
    Does anybody has any solution to offer?
    Plz suggest

    Sometimes I need to touch it more than once, but it usually works. This happens less often since updating to V31.

  • 5800 touch screen problem

    I have this phone from six months.
    It is having touch screen problems since a few days.
    like for eg. When I tap the message icon it opens gallery,The touch seems to be on right side wherever I tap or touch.The phone then when it gets restarted works fine.
    Touch screen calibration does not seem to work and I have the latest firmware update too.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Had my 5800 for a few months now, and had no issues until 2 days ago.  Suddenly, the touch screen stopped responding properly and was selecting the wrong icons.  It was impossible to write a text message!  The weird thing was that it wasn't selecting the next character/ icon to the left, it was completely random!!  Tried turning off and on and removing battery, but that didn't work!  Calibrating the screen also didn't work. 
    About 3 hours later I felt it vibrate in my pocket, so took it out and couldn't figure out why (no call/ text/ keypad still locked etc) but the touch screen was back to normal as if nothing was ever wrong!
    So, happy it was just a minor 'blip', I carried on using the phone (with no problems) until tonight... Exactly the same has happened!  Guess it'll be going back to Nokia for repair tomorrow!

  • Nokia 5800 Touch Screen unique problem

    Hi
    My 5800 is showing some unique problems these days.
    If i click the telephone key on the touch panel the contact keys gets pressed.
    And this happens acroos all applications.Tried reset, hard, soft everything but not got the solution.
    If anyone has please do share as this is taking on my nerve.

    It's not unique because other people have had the same issue.
    It happened on my device when I took it apart and put back together and tightened the screws too much. It has something to do with the connector connecting the display's touch sensor to the phone electronics.
    Loosening the screws helped.
    (I took it apart to install some non-Nokia covers on it which might not have the exactly same dimensions as the original ones. By the way some non-Nokia covers have a ridiculous design flaw which reflects the light from the LED flash right into the camera module and ruins all photos taken with a flash!)

  • 5800 - V40 - Cannot answer call using touch screen

    Hi,
    Just upgraded to V40 on my 5800. Now when the phone rings I get 2 options on the touch screen:
    1. Answer
    2. Unlock
    Neither work. I know I can use the buttons, but why have the other options on the screen if they don't work. What about the other options like silence or reject, or send message. All gone.
    The new version is **bleep**.
    Also, when I set an alarm, I can't silence it, or stop it using the touch screen.
    This all seems to happen when the phone is locked, but if the phone is unlocked, I get the older options.
    I don't know how I'm expected to unlock my phone just before someone rings me to enable me to have all the existing options, or wake up before my alarm in order to unlock the phone, so I can snooze or stop it.
    Can something be done, or can I revert back to V31??
    Thanks,
    DOS.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    they aren't buttons , they are ARROWS. don't tap to answer or silence the alarm , just swipe your finger in the same direction of movements to answer or snooze or .... etc

  • Touch screen /battery life Samsung Fascinate Galaxy S

    Any advice on a (Samsung Fascinate Galaxy S) which has a delayed response to the touch screen.  I have had the phone for 4 months and the past 2 or 3 weeks the touch screen has a very delayed reaction when "touched".  Also, the battery has to be charged sometimes twice a day.  Any advice or resolution to these problems would be welcome.

    I would look at the apps your might have installed during those past two week and temporarily remove them and see if that clears it up, it could be some sort of conflict. If not, them a system reset will probably fix this issue you are having, if that doesn't help, then ask for a replacement

  • Touch screen not functional (Lumia 800)

    I'm not sure what happened but my touch screen isn't functional. Buttons work but the touch screen is not opperating like it should. I had plenty of battery life left. I tried restarting it a few times, but the touch screen won't work. I had this phone for a month and it's driving me crazy w/ these problems. I'm in the process of charging the phone, hopefully that helps.

  • Touch screen does not work

    I just got an HP elitebook 2760p.   Everything works...except that I cannot seem to get the touchscreen to work.   Whether the screen is up (like a regular laptop), or flipped down (like a tablet), it does not respond to fingers or to the pen that comes with the computer.  I have tried using the touch screen while using internet explorer, while using the "desktop" of windows 7, and also while booting up the computer with it flipped like a tablet.
    There is probably a very simple answer...and once I get it, I'll feel like a beef mind, but for the life of me I can't figure it out.   I can't seem to find any swich to turn on, whether physical or in the windows setting pages.  The computer did not come with a manual, but I looked up on the online manual and there is no information on "how to use the touch screen" 
    Is there something that I must "turn on" in Windows 7, or a switch somewhere on the side of the computer which I need to flip to use the touch screen?   Could I be missing a driver?

    Your EliteBook is a Business model.  Your issue would be best answered on the HP Enterprise Business Community Forum

  • My touch screen isn't working and stopped working after I went running with it. I have restarted it multiple times and restored it on my MacBook. It will still not let me slide it to even look at the phone. Please help ASAP.

    I took my iPhone running today and when I returned I was not able to slide it open or type in my pass code. All buttons are still responding. I have tried restarting it multiple times and even restored it, but the touch screen will not respond to anything. I also cleaned the screen off with a damp cloth. Please help! I WAS able to slide it open in the middle of restoring it but not able to click on any apps. Help! My life is on my iPhone and I am a nurse on call!

    Try restore as new using computer iTunes.

  • What is going on with my iPhone 5s touch screen?!

    I bought my iPhone 5s in November of 2013. I've loved it so far, until about a month ago when I noticed a major problem. When I type on the keyboard vertically (haven't tried horizontal) different parts of my screen start being activated. For example, the amount of times I've been texting someone and end up sending a FaceTime request (so activating the top right corner) is ridiculous. I even tried posing this question originally off of my phone (why I thought that was smart, I'll never know), and I found myself typing in the question tab or refreshing the page or typing in the middle of random words every single time. I notice it very badly in iMessage, but I've also seen it happen on Facebook as well. There are times when I even find myself three pages back from where I was at first, because of typing/touching. Basically, I have no idea what's going on. Some days seem better than others, and other times I can barely send out a message to someone. It certainly helps when I slow down the pace of typing (I thought maybe hitting 'blank' parts in between keys was causing it), but alas this only helps mildly, and sometimes not at all. I also don't believe I see this touching error outside of typing (however, this could be because I don't notice it as overtly). It seems like if I was capable of recalibrating the touch screen, that would help. But the iPhone doesn't come with a recalibrating option other than wiping the phone. I'm just at a loss as to how typing the bottom half of my screen sends signals to the top half. Am I the only one facing this? Or does anyone have any remote clue as to what could be going on/can be done to stop this? Obviously, it's very inconvenient in my life.

    What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far?
    Restart?
    Reset?
    Reset All Settings?
    Restore From Backup?
    Restore As New?

  • HP Photosmart 7510 touch screen, power light and wifi lights won't turn on

    I bought my HP Photosmart 7510 over a year ago, just past warranty. I've printed less than 50 pages total at home and only 3 photos. Just as of two days ago, the touch screen decided not to work anymore, and the lights that usually come on next to the power button and wifi icon won't come on either. However, when I turn it on, the same tones sound out and the scanner and ink jets move around in their usual set-up. I've troubleshooted with trying several different ways of restarting it, but to no avail.
    HP tech support phone line was a joke, I got told by the first representative (before telling him which product I had or even offering to troubleshoot) that he was going to send a repairman to my house for $149. Over the price of my printer. So I tried calling back and spoke with a young woman who, when I asked if she would help me troubleshoot my printer, said "you can't troubleshoot that, only software". Then insisted that I pay $130 for a new printer. When I asked to be transferred to her supervisor, I was yelled at, told to again buy a new HP printer, and pushed off the phone.
    I have had several HP products, I always seek them out for the brand name and have trusted the merchandise. But one year of life in a product is just silly. And unforturnately, I won't be able to convince myself to buy another one for that kind of lifespan unless I can fix this. I know I'm not the first one with this issue, is there a RECALL I'm not aware of? How can I get this puppy working again?

    Hello cbroomhead,
    I am sorry to hear about your Photosmart 7510's touch screen showing blank and not working. I understand you can still hear the printer warming up when you power it on. I would like to post you a troubleshooting guide below to try in hopes to correct the issue.
    If you have tried all of the steps and the screen is still blank, you can also try another power cable if you have one.
    Blank Control Panel Display
    If you are able to have the screen come back on, also check for a Firmware Update.
    I hope this helps!

  • My iPod touch screen stopped working, how do i fix it?

    My iPod(4th generation) touch screen stopped working. Okay so it was fine earlier, my home button does not work so i have been using the assistive button for months, and until earlier today it got stuck, i tried to power it off but it doesn't let me slide to power it off, and it doesn't let me press anything on the assistive menu either, and i'm currently waiting for my ipod to die but it's taking forever since it's battery lasts forever! is there any other solutions you can give me?
    and i was wondering if my ipod has life insurance with apple so if something is wrong with the screen, can i take it for a new one? (my ipod is in very good conditions, not cracked or scratched, just the home button is an issue)
    thanks!

    Try restoring via iTunes. If necessary. try placing the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restore:

  • Closed lid - effects on screen life

    Hi,
    I recently bought a 15" retina quad-core MacBook Pro. During the working week I have it permanently hooked-up to a couple of external monitors. In this mode, I don't really need the extra screenspace of the built-in display. So potentially I could leave the cover closed all week. But I've noticed that the aluminium deck around the keyboard is frequently hot to touch (but not hot enough to burn my skin). I'm concerned that having the cover constantly closed would expose the screen to too much heat, too often, which might result in long-term damage. Am I right?
    I guess another way of asking this question, is which option will result in shorter screen life, having the retina display switched on for 10+ hours a day, or having it closed and exposed to heat of the deck for a similar amount of time?
    Thanks.
    SR

    I see, thanks for checking.
    And are there any viable solutions for turning off the MBP screen? 
    (i.e., 
    magnet hack
    the command-line revert-to-pre-Lion configuration hack
    a clamshell-then-open-after hack
    InsomniaX hack
    Opening and closing the lid isn't ideal every single time and I prefer the air flow with an open lid.
    I really don't understand why Apply doesn't give you ability to just turn it off, I mean really is it that difficult or do they just want to be different?

    Hi,
    I have quite a similar problem with the same phone. Whenever I receive a call, the touchscreen does not function, I have to answer the phone by pressing the green button. Thus I do not have the option to make the call silent. This happens both when the phone is locked (slide option) and also when it is not locked (tapping option). This happened a few days ago. I updated the phone yesterday with the latest software V 60.0.003 thought maybe this could be fixed but I still have the same problem. This also happens with the phone alarm. I cannot turn it off or put it on snooze with the slide function. A week ago I had to dismantle the phone to replace the touch screen as it was all scratched. Everything worked perfectly fine. A few days later the slide function to answer call and to turn off the alarm  stopped working.
    Any help on this please?
    Thanks in advance

    Can't say much since the phone was self servised.. but just to silence the call why not use the Flip to Silence feature ? Go to Menu-->Settings-->Phone-->Sensor settings-->..set Sensors to ON and select 'Silencing Calls' under Turning control .. Now when a call is received, to silence it simply flip the phone upside down ..(turn it so that display faces downwards..and the back faces up)
