G2 Touchscreen Issue - Erratic Behavior - No Response in a Week?

I created this post a week ago. I was hoping that someone from VZW would have weighed-in by now.
The concern over this G2 software defect continues to grow - now just the two threads referenced in my post have well over 20,000 visits from G2 owners. There are countless other threads on this same G2 defect.
Isn't this enough to warrant a response?
Maybe just a "we'll look into this"?

JonathanK:
Thanks for offering to help laa125!. I hope she/he chimes in and gets the support they need.
I love my G2 as well - it's an awesome device. Being in the software business, I am well-aware that issues always arise with software. If the issue is deemed significant, it's the responsibility of the device manufacturer and/or software provider to listen to their customers, understand the issue and then resolve it.
This software issue is very significant. One way to determine how significant it is, is to look at the top technical media channels and see what kind of "buzz" the issue is receiving among G2 owners. This is a great way to listen to your customers. XDA and Android Central are two top tech websites. Both have very active G2 forums and this very issue is one of the top defects being discussed, world-wide. This issue has hundreds of posts and over 20,000 read requests by G2 owners!
Just read the initial post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2521663
...and you will get all the info you need to understand the issue that laa125! has, and all fhe rest of us have.
Please pass this issue to the "Customer Care" or "Tech Support" at VZW.
We want to hear that VZW not only cares, but is willing to do something about this issue.

Iphone 6+ touch screen issue erratic behavior

iphone 6+ touch screen erratic behavior. the main issue started this week, it comes and goes, and starts with inability to even swipe the unlock slider, and which mimics that of trying to use phone with a wet hand. when tying who knows what will actually happen, app in use closes, opens, you end up on a different message while trying to respond to someones text. clearly my inputs are not at all related to what the phone thinks is being pushed. have done partial, settings, and a full restore and issues came back 2 days later. deleted flesky and any apps installed in the last 30 days and the issues persist. case on or off, factory charger and cables, zero moisture exposure all irrelevant to this issue manifesting itself.
at this point i am thinking hardware and only because behavior of touch screen has been marginally flakey the last 6-8 weeks prior, i thought it might be certain apps, but certain areas of the touch screen seemed unresponsive especially near the center. those issues too intermittent, and because they were minor, i wrote them off to the apps themselves, or perhaps some bug in iOS8 that would be fixed in an update.
so it seems likely the earlier issues were real and related to the phone and not too specific apps. whatever it is it needs to be addressed immediately by apple as it is clear my issues are not isolated. i do not have hours to spend at some genius bar trying to prove an intermittent issue exists.
apple, what is your response?
james

Having the same issues with my 6+. I've also seen these vertical stripes around the upper right of the screen periodically as well. I did some searches here and tried resetting the phone and a full restore from backup. It seemed to resolve it for a little while then the erratic behavior came back.
Today, I took it to the Genius Bar today and they are replacing the LCD screen under warranty. When I get it back, I'll do another full restore and hope that fixes the issue.
What's most frustrating is I've been an iPhone owner since the 3G and never experienced issues with the touchscreen like this.

Touchpad touchscreen problems (erratic behavior/not responding correctly/etc) temporary solution.

I bought a HP Touchpad about a month or two after it came out. It worked pretty much as you'd expect it to until some time ago. I started getting a problem where the screen would go crazy and not respond correctly to my touch inputs. Web pages would jump all over the place, cards would zoom out, etc, in other words, they would behave erratically. After some testing I noticed that certain areas of the touchscreen would NOT respond at all to inputs while others would make the screen go crazy like I mentioned previously. I looked for information on the web to see if other people where having the same problem and found reports of the same behavior. Unfortunately there where no solutions offered. At that point I tried turning on and off the Touchpad which did not resolve the problem. My next step was to try to reinstall the OS with WebOS Doctor, but I read a post where the user reported similar behavior and reinstalling with WebOS Doctor didn't fix the problem. Needless to say I was bummed out since I figured it was a hardware problem with the touchscreen. After more testing I found a temporary solution to the problem which seems to suggest that the probem could be software. The solution when you get the problem is to hold down the power button and the home button at the same time and keep them pressed until the screen shuts down and the touchpad restarts. Once the OS comes back up it works like it is supposed to until you get the next episode of screen epilepsy. At that point you need to do the procedure again and it will fix the problem temporarily. Usually the fix lasts for a few days in my case. The fix also solves other problems I have with the touchpad. Problems like, videos not playing fluidly or freezing every few seconds although the sound plays fine (youtube), sound gets messed up (sounds are played in a robot like pitch), and others. If anybody has questions or other suggestions let me know, I will answer the as best as I can.
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

I think the YouTube and sound problems are separate from the other erratic behaviour. Recently my touchpad won't play YouTube videos beyond certain points, starting a few seconds in possibly due to the advertising pop-ups - I can skip forwards, but that means I miss crucial parts. My sound also goes 'robot-like' until a reboot, which is incredibly annoying! Your touchscreen problems may be specific to your device - try going to Device Info / Diagnostics and see if that tells you anything.

Iphone 5 touchscreen issue with iOS 7 update

I downloaded the upgrade the day it came out and there were no issues for the first few days. Then about a week later my touchscreen started wigging out. I would not even touch the screen and letters no where near where my finger was would start being typed into the box. I could not select anything on the screen cause it would scroll and select other things, and I was having issues with closing out the apps.
I am averaging 3-5 hard reboots a day and the soft reboots don't seem to have any effect on it.
When I do the hard reboots, it will work for just a few min and then do the same as before.
I restored the phone back to factory settings and redownloaded the phone and I didnt think that I was going to get the password in for the apple ID cause it was doing the same as before. No dropping or wetting of the phone has occurred. I was also able to update to the 7.0.2 and this did nothing.
Anyone have any suggestions or having the same problems?

I have these issues, on both my iphone 5 and ipad using ios7.0.2 (and all apps have been updated also. I am actually amazed that this forum is not full of complaints about this, such are the number of issues and regularity of their occurrence! I have spoken to friends who also experience freezing, crashing and an erratic touchscreen since updating to ios 7.
The issues (on both iphone 5 and ipad) can be summarised as follows: 1- touchscreen behaves erratically, keyboard use and scrolling in pages no longer as easy as before. 2- apps crash, regularly, particularly mail and calendar. I have linked both mail and calendar to office 365 and wonder if this is anything to do with it? Have to close and restart the app in order to resolve. 3- the whole os crashes & freezes requiring a hard reboot.
I wish I could reinstall the previous os!

Cause of Erratic Behavior With Tethered Shooting

The first time I tried tethered shooting with my Nikon D3 and D2XS, I experienced very erratic behavior, including the import window popping up and images not downloading from the camera even though the software said they were.
I struggled with these issues for over an hour and discovered a very simple fix: Consult the camera manual. Nikon specifies a very specific procedure. First, make sure any CF cards you have in the camera are empty. Second, change the camera's USB setting to MTP/PTP. Third, TURN THE CAMERA OFF (VERY IMPORTANT). Fourth, connect the camera to your computer. Fifth, launch the software and go into Tether mode. Sixth, turn the camera on and start shooting.
When I did this, everything worked perfectly. The erratic behavior disappeared.
One other word of advice. Give a few extra seconds for the first image to download. They seem to speed up after that.

I would set both express in bridge mode and set to join or create its own network.
If you want excellent range then use ethernet to the express, set in bridge mode, set to create its own network and place the express more middle of the house.
Regarding the TC , keep it in an open environment especially if using N only mode(signal strength).

Z10 Touchscreen Issues - Possible Solution?

A few months back my Z10 touchscreen became unresponsive. I could not find a solution, so I purchased a new Z10. Recenty I dropped the new Z10 in water...so, still in posession of the old unresponsive Z10, I decided to give it another try. I put my sim card in, and the new battery that came with the new phone. VOILA! Works like a charm. Try replacing your battery. i wish I had known this months ago, could have saved myself spending $200 on a new phone upgrade.

I'm happy for your positive outcome but I would argue that the battery was not the culprit. Sure, it appears that it was but exchanging batteries to correct a touchscreen issue is not something we would have suggested; I'm sure this is just coincidence.
Whatever the situation, you now have a Z10 in perfect working order. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

Issue in parsing the response of a WebService in Service Link

I am getting issues in connecting an external (non cisco) application via WebService. Appreciate if anyone can help in fixing the issue. I am using 9.3.2 Patch 6.
Connectivity to an external system (a 3rd party application in my firm) was achieved via WebService using the ServiceLink module.
Used the Outbound HTTP/WS Adapter where I am sending request and receiving response (bi-direction).
Successfully constructed and passed the XML request to the WebService.
Received response from the WebService as an XML / Soap Message which is then wrapped with the <Message> tag with the channel-id attribute successfully.
Designed a XSL Transformation (For this WebService, the XSLT did not generated automatically) which, I hope is not being applied properly in CPSC; but working fine outside of CPSC when I have checked the response XML with the XSLT in an online editor (http://www.freeformatter.com/xsl-transformer.html). Everything looks perfect in this editor where I have issues in CPSC.
I am getting a Transformation exception in CPSC and the response message was unable to convert into the nsXML. The exception I am receiving is below. Not sure whether it is due to the namespace or something else..
Note: I am having this issue in this Agent/WebService alone. I have tested with couple other WebServices where I didn't have any issues in getting the response and update the field in CPSC form successfully. So, I believe that there are no issues in the parser in our server.

The reply I got from Cisco Engineering team for this is to get the response as a soap message than XML data.
The tag should not be available in the response received. If we don't have this, the response will still consider as a valid XML / Soap message after wrapped by the tag.
If we have the tag in the response, after wrapping the tag, the format of the response will not be in good format.
Also, Cisco Engineering team has confirmed that it is not possible to remove the tag from CPSC. It should be removed by the WebService providers while sending the response.
For my case, I am consuming the WebService from a tool similar to CPSC where the entire settings has to be changed to send the response format as soap message than XML. So, we need to have another WebService as a middleware! Bad day!

Touchscreen issue since IOS 5.1

Is anyone else having problems with the touchscreen since installing IOS 5.1? It seems like the calibration is off.
I am also unable to install apps. Ive tried restoring and soft resets but nothing seems to work.
Am I the only one? or does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

Sorry -- no fixes for you but I, too, am experiencing this problem with my iPod Touch 4th gen. I even did a restore and reinstall from iTunes to see if there had been in installation issue (I had an installation issue over wi-fi where the Apple logo appeared with an empty progress bar for most of an hour). After a couple of re-boots it finally kicked in but with the touchscreen issue. The restore didn't resolve anything. Kinda got a gut feel like the updates for the Ipad 3 screen resolution is what is causing the problem on the small screen of the iPhone/iPod. My iPad 1 isn't having any issues. I don't know if my wife's iPod is problematic or not. Both her iPad 1 and iPod 4 were updated last weekend but haven't heard any reports.

Taken Aback- touchscreen issue

I have enjoyed and supported this company's products and services for some time. So, today when I inquired with tech support about my touchscreen issue (non working band of the screen ..the 456 area on the dialpad)...I was taken aback at the very least that I should send my phone in for repair and then PAY for a loaner. hmmm..I just paid 700 for a phone that is now handicapped two months later by what seems to be a common issue, accourding to the forums, and I should fork over some more $$$? Principle alone may make me dust off my Blackberry.

And I have to say that I have never had a phone before that broke, that needed repair. Or that broke just by falling down (that is what happened to my iphone, one fall out of 1.5 feet and the screen is cracked). What Apple has to understand is that the mobile phone market is not the computer market. Phones have to work and have to survive some everyday punishments, otherwise they are just nice looking but otherwise useless devices. Just take a look at Palms and Blackberrys, the thing about them is that they work, just like Nokias and in the past Ericsson's.

Erratic behavior

I am having a lot of problems with scripts from a book
tutorial. The book is PHP 5 Advanced by Larry Ullman. I've worked
through two of his other books with no problems. But with this book
I am getting a lot of errors and erratic behavior.
With a header.htm file in chapter 5, if I save the page as
htm some of the code is exposed "($fcat\n"; } // end of while loop
?>" in the browser without the two end quotes. The same with the
downloaded file. If I save the file with a php extension the code
is not exposed. Does it really matter if I save it with .htm or
.php? I know that the php files have to make a trip to the server,
so there is a little more overhead. But I don't think it will
matter that much with a few files.
There is something wrong with my work environment. I use
DreamWeaver CS3 as an IDE and the rest of my setup below. I have
completed a semester of php at the community college, completed 4
books on php and mysql with this setup. I am about ready to
re-install DW, PHP, and Apache server to see if it resolves my
problems.
Some of the scripts work on my remote server but not on my
local setup is why I think something might be wrong with my setup.
Has anyone experienced similar problems? If so how did you
resolve them. Since I have fairly recent versions of my programs I
really don't want to re-install everything. The companion scripts
that I downloaded also provide the same errors.
I am getting ready to work through David Powers' book
Dreamweaver CS3 with CSS, AJAX, and PHP. I would like not to have
these problems but I don't want to re-install php, Apache and DW. I
had trouble installing the Creative Suite Web Premium the first
time I installed. I had to have help from tech support.
I should add that older scripts that I have work as they
should.

I am unfamiliar with this book, but yes, if PHP code is
contained in a page,
you will use the .php extension to save your page. You have
seen why.

The setup below should work .. perhaps you didn't install
correctly. Did
you use an installer? If you create an info.php page with the
code here,
does it show you the PHP info page?

Extremely slow navigation in full screen mode and other erratic behavior

Hi,
Is it me or every new release of PSE feels heavier and more bloated than the previous?
I have PSE9 running on a dual core, one year old dell PC with W7 with 4GB of RAM. I have the maximum amount of recommended memory alloted to the program (set in preferences).
Ever since I upgraded, moving forward (or backward) to the next pic (via pagedown, or up) through the filmstrip in fullscreen mode has become very, very sluggish. Sometimes it just will not move to the next image even when thi image is in the same directory as the previous one.
Is this sluggish navigation normal? Or is there something that I can do to improve performance??
I look at images in fullscreen mode to decide which ones to edit and which ones to delete so I use this feature a lot. Another example of sluggish-- or in this case erratic-- behavior happens when looking at an image in full screen and then I decide to edit the image. I load the image to the edito by clicking the editor icon on the left options pane. Even if the editor is already open, sometimes it brings the editor to the ferground with the image ready to be edited and sometimes it does not; I have to cycle with alt-tab to make the editor active. Why this erratic behavior? Then, after saving an image and selecting the close button, you are supposed to be returned to the organizer... well this happens sometimes, other times I have to manually swithc using alt-tab.
Please help, this is very annoying.

I don't understand whether you have a Referenced-Masters Library or a Managed-Masters Library. Drives slow as they fill and with a Managed-Masters Library sooner or later the internal drive will become overfilled. I recommend a Referenced-Masters Library with Masters on an external drive and the Aperture Library on the internal drive.
iMacs, laptops and Minis are by definition limiting to heavy Aperture usage, so work carefully to optimize setup and workflow.
First is to max the RAM and make sure the hard drive stays less than 70% full. Restart the iMac prior to a major Aperture session and only have Aperture open. You should also investigate to see if a substantially more powerful video card is available at reasonable price.
Set Preview size to be exactly screen size and build Previews manually when the box is otherwise not being aggressively used.

Very Strange Touchscreen Issue

I recieved and activated my new 8GB iPhone about two days ago and it worked great up until just a few hours ago. I am experiencing the known issue of the bottom 1/2 inch or so of the touchscreen not responding to my touch, which in turn is affecting a lot of main elements of the phone such as SMS, e-mail, iPod, etc. Among that issue, I also encountered a very strange occurrence whilst I was testing the 'dead zone' on my iPhone: Certain sections of the dead zone work if I hover my finger about 2 -3 centimeters from the screen. It is a very strange thing but true, lol. I can even capture video footage of this if it's necessary.
Since I bought my iPhone from an AT&T store, should I return it to them for a new one on the spot or should I do it through Apple? I hope it doesn't come down to the latter since I do not live anywhere near an Apple Store (New Orleans, LA) and I just switched from T-Mobile to AT&T so I'd really hate to purchase a cheap temporary phone while my iPhone is being replaced/fixed.
Edit: Have a Merry Christmas, everyone!
Message was edited by: Fiyerstorm

I just talked to Apple Support and they are going to repair it for me, it's just I need to wait til Friday since I am broke from Christmas! Once I get paid, then I can dish out the 30 dollars to get a rental iPhone to hold me over. The restore temporarily fixed the touchscreen issue since it happened again hours later.
Also, nobody I know who would have a spare AT&T phone doesn't come to mind so I can't just borrow a phone and start the repair process now, but the wait isn't too bad. At least they do not limit the iPhone rental to just physical Apple Store customers!
Thanks for the help, folks. :V

LaserJet 4L with Windows XP. Erratic behavior

My LaserJet 4L has been gently used since I bought it many years ago.
It was always a PERFECT machine.
But suddenly it is not reliable. The test page works and sometimes it prints fine from documents or web pages, but the erratic behavior when I try to print now includes:
1. All lights coming on even though there is no paper jam and the paper tray is not empty.
2. One blank sheet prints, instead of what I wanted.
HP phone support said to buy a new machine but the store where I bought the machine said it might be just an easy fix like a wire or a driver.
I prefer to fix the machine instead of buying a new one because it is more ecological!

Honey, it's time to start saying your farewells to your beloved printer. The behaviour you are describing is the beginnings of a serious hardware meltdown involving the High Voltage Power Suppy and your formatter board (and possibly the DC controller but generally when that goes the printer will not recover from whatever error or behaviour it is performing).

Siri "show reminders" command erratic behavior

iPhone 4s and iPad 3 both with iOS 8.1
when asking Siri to "show reminders" it sometimes show them on Siri's display and other times it just open the Reminder application.
Before on iOS 7 it would only "show reminders" in Siri's display, and then open the application if asked for ("open Reminders application").
Has also someone else noticed this erratic behavior with these commands, and have a solution to fix it?

Thanks Tom,
That's the crazy part - sometimes I'm doing nothing - I have no airport installed or any wireless accessories either.
When it last acted upon (after writing 1st post) I played along - since it thought there was a disk in the drive I went ahead and gave a command to burn to it. When it said there was no cd inside , I canceled the operation. So far so good.
My suscpicion is that there was/is an uncompleted command somewhere - but I've no idea what would trigger the drive to remind it of this. Weird huh?
I would like to avoid the 10.4.9 upgrade as my research doesn't give enough favorable input on the Apple Discussions pages to warrant it.
Any other ideas what it could be?
John
