Droid Eris screen suddenly moves all the way left

I've had my Eris for about a year now, no major issues other than being slow sometimes.  A couple of days ago my screen started moving all the way left on it's own.  No idea why this is happening.  I've done some soft resets, but doesn't always fix the problem.  It seems to come and go but it is really annoying. 
Should I do a hard reset?  Anyone else have this kind of issue?

I have provided some information below that may help.
Step 1 – Try re-calibrating the touch screen. I have provided the instructions below:
-Select Menu
-Select Settings
-Select Sound & Display
-Select G-Sensor calibration (make sure the device is on a level surface and press Calibrate to adjust).
Step 2 – Try powering the device off and pulling the battery out for 20 seconds.
Step 3 – Try uninstalling any 3rd party applications that play any part in the devices home screen (e.g. something that adds more screens, live wallpapers, themes)
Step 4 – Hard Reset  (I have provided the article below for the instruction)

  • When using safari, my screen will suddenly scroll all the way to the bottom and will not resound to any commands.  This affects all running programs.  How do I stop this?

    When I am on the internet, my screen will suddenly scroll all the way to the bottom and will not respond to any commands.  All of the other programs are then affected the same way and you cannot even use the commands at the top of the screen becayse they all scroll to the bottom.  After a while, the screen resets by itself.  Help.

    It sounds like a problem wih the backlight inverter. Usually they just go, instead of on and off.
    In a dark room hold a flashlight on the display when it blacks out. If you can see the items on the desktop, it's probably the backlight.

  • How do i eliminate the pop up that appears acroos the top of the toolbar at bottom of screen. it extends all the way across screen

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br /><br />

  • What is the keyboard shortcut for scrolling page down? In Pages, Safari, etc... Just a single page/ screen view, not all the way to the bottom.  Thank you.

    Trying to navigate the screen without my mousepad.  I have carpal tunnel and early stage arthritis and cannot repeatedly make the appropriate motions to scroll with two fingers.  Is there a keyboard shortcut for scrolling up and down line by line or page by page? 
    Thank you.

    Yeah. sorry. those are not correct. ctrl N + P are for home and end line shortcuts. Ctrl V does go down one line.  But CTRL arrow up or down do not work in Safari.  But thank you very much for the attention and the time...
    Note from my first post above -- I did not say to use CTRL arrow in Safari:
    For Safari:
    Scroll down a line: down arrow
    Scroll down a screen: option down arrow
    Note from my second post above and from the first link I gave that  Control N, P, and V worked for me in Pages as described in the link and in my post:
    The link to shortcuts that I gave abaove includes Control N, P, and V for move down a line, up a line and down a page and those seem to work in Pages.

  • How to quickly delete contact in message screen without going all the way to contacts screen?

    If I get a message from Jessica and I decide to delete her as a contact in my iphone how can I do that without having to go back to my contacts list that contains 6500 entries and delete her? thanks

    yeah forget it. iphone is so stupid. on blackberry I can just go directly to her name and delete her right there whereas on iphone if u go directly to her name and click edit there will be no option to delete her contact. u need to exit that screen, go to main menu then go to contacts then find her name again (among my 6500 contacts; i actually found an easier way so now I copy paste that person's name and find it easier that way in contacts) and then click edit and then go to the bottom of that edit page and click delete. very annoying and slow. some iphone feature are just inexplainably slow, long and annoying.

  • Dvd wont burn movie all the way

    The dvd is 4.7 GB and the movie is 4.1 the dvd wont burn the whole movie it stops a little before the movie is over. HOw do we burn a long movie onto dvd?

    What is the total playing time of your movie? iDVD 5 has a 120 minute limit, including menus, in the Best Quality setting or a 60 minute limit in the Best Performance setting. The size of the files is not the determining factor, just the playing time.
    OT

  • Had iphone 4 a week and it got dropped and theres a crack all the way down the screen, will you replace it?

    iphone dropped only had it a week, got replaced because the power button broke. Now the screen is cracked all the way down the middle. Will i get a replacement?

    We are users. Not Apple. If the phone is from a country where Apple offers an out of warranty replacement program, Apple will be happy to replace it for US$149.
    Accidental damage is not covered by the warranty.

  • Having a problem with mini dvi to hdmi.  Can see the background, but must move all screens all the way to the right to see on tv.  Any solutions?

    I'm having an issue with setting up mini dvi to hdmi.  I can connect and see the background picture from my macbook (approx 4 years old) but in order to see any screens or video, I have to move the screen almost all the way off the macbook display to the right.  Any ideas why this would happen?  Also, there is no audio, although when I bought the adapter and cable at the Mac store, they assured me it would handle both.

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. In System Preferences>Displays on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will makethe second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in ClamshellMode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box.
    No Mini-DVI adapter can carry audio. The only MacBook that sends audio is the Mid 2010 model 7,1 through a Mini DisplayPort.
    If you connect the MacBook using a Mini-DVI to HDMI adapter you will probably need to use external speakers or a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo system for audio if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs for audio with the HDMI plug. The Mini-DVI to HDMI doesn't carry audio and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI.

  • TS1846 I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smoot all the time. Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies. What is wrong? Sudd

    I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smooth all the time.
    Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies.
    What is wrong? All the sudden.

    We need info, info, info!
    What version of FCP X?
    Did you render? what are the project specs? do you use many compound clips? how much ram, hard drive space, how is the hard drive connected?
    It looks like your mac can't keep up. Maybe the bottleneck is the hard drive, or something else.
    Try exporting a master file and see if the video is ok.
    Also, keep Activity Monitor open and see how much memory pressure you've got.

  • I changed something with my page, and now I have to move my cursor all the way up to the top to get the home, bookmarks or closing button

    the URL line is also hidden until I scroll all the way up.

    Sounds like you are in Full Screen Mode.
    *F11 will toggle Full Screen Mode on or off.
    *Another way to exit Full Screen Mode, when moving your cursor to the top of the screen, the toolbars will "slide" down; move your cursor onto a blank spot on one of the toolbars, right-click and click "Exit Full Screen Mode".

Well life is too short I will have passed away by the time anything actually decides to work! Getting really fed up with ' Apple'.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • HT4900 When opening an email on my macpro some of the emails open all the way to the right of the screen...others open in the center of the screen...I want them all to open in the center. Is there a setting that needs to be changed?

    When opeing my email on my macbook pro some of my email messages show up in the middle of the screen..others show up all the way to the right. I want all of the emails to show in the middle of my screen. Is there a setting to change? Right now I have to open..close and then re-open some messages to get them to show in the middle of the screen. Thanks.

    No.
    Try this:
    Open one email.
    Adjust size and position.
    Close your mail application.
    Future mails should open as per the last email until you change it.
    The same is so for Safari windows.

  • HT201210 I was doing an update on my iphone and it stopped short of getting it all the way done. Now my phone is stuck with an itunes icon on the screen, and will not allow me to do anything with it. I tried shutting it down and restarting it...same icon

    I tried to update my phone. The update didnt go all the way through, and ended up freezing the screen on my iphone with an itunes icon on it. I tried to reboot phone with no success...the icon stays on there with no other function of the phone available. Anybody know of a fix?

    Put your iphone in dfu mode by doing this. Turn your iphone off. When its off, hold home and power button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button and keep holding home button for another 10 seconds. Then open up itunes on your pc and plug your iphone to your pc. Itunes should recognize your iphone in recovery mode and it will tell you to restore it. Click restore, and your iphone will restore. Remember that, if you do this you will lose everything that was on your iphone. You can restore from backup later on. Hope I helped. If you have any questions or problems with this tutarial, you can contact me personaly on my email [email protected]   . Hope I helped. Cheers
