Part of screen not working - bottom of screen not registering.....

Hi all,
The screeen on my 3GS is completely un-responsive at the very bottom of the screen - for about half a centimetre from the bottom ( near the home button).  As a result I can't, for example, swap from letters to numbers on the keyboard when it comes up (that is the bottom button) etc etc.   When I press on that section, it tends to 'register' on a space higher above, on the next 'key' up, when using the keyboard. 
It seems the register is all out.
I have tried opeing maps and checking each corner and using the keypad on the calculator ( to see where it won't work) but to no avail.
I have done a shutdown, a re-start, a restore from archive and now a restore as a new phone, and nothing has chnged the situation.  Except for the fact that I now can't even set up my phone, as in the set up process I need to be able to use the buttons at the bottom of the screen ( eg agreeing to the T&C's as well as using the keypad ( and swapping to numbers) to link into wi fi etc.  And yep, this area is stll not registering hence I can't move forward in the new phone set up process....
So in short I am stuck.
Any thought people?  Any of you got any clever ideas to help me out?
Thanks in advance for your info.

did you get a answer to this question my iphone 4s is doing exactly the same things jus updated it but cant sign in cuz i cant get any numbers up when im typiing!!!

    Regarding your first question about bookmarks, I think you discovered the answer in when you pressed the address bar. The second tab there has your bookmarks.
    As for the keyboard, I'm not sure why your Firefox is reacting so slowly; mine seems to show keyboards even when I don't want them. If you have accumulated a lot of history, perhaps that's an issue?
    Did you use any third party software to move your Firefox data from internal memory to the storage card?

  • IPad constantly glitching/freezing/crashing/parts of screen unresponsive - time for a factory reset OR a trip to the Apple store???

    iPad constantly glitching/freezing/crashing/parts of screen unresponsive - time for a factory reset OR a trip to the Apple store???
    My son has nothing but problems with his iPad Mini.  It is less than a year old and it constantly freezes/crashes/glitches and parts of the screen are unresponsive.  This happens while playing games, watching movies, surfing the net etc etc
    The iPad has been in a heavy duty Survivor case from day 1 and has been very well taken care of - so I don't think it's a damage issue
    I have tried numerous resets (just holding the 2 buttons) and have disabled every feature on the iPad that might be causing memory/RAM issues (?)  all to no avail.
    I haven't tried resetting to factory settings as I don't want to lose all the data on the iPad (mostly his game achievements and Minecraft maps that he has worked so hard on!!!)
    SO - any suggestions:
    1) Take it in to the Apple Store - I have never gone to Apple over an issue, is this possibly covered by warranty???
    2) Factory Reset - If I do this can I save all his game achievements/data???
    Cheers,
    Todd

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • 2nd JFrame at Full Screen not registering key events

    I've written an application that launches other applications distributed as JARs with a particular method (replacing the main method). These other applications run at full screen.
    Whilst I have got these other applications to work in that they display correctly and do everything else, I require them to register key events. If I run these applications on their own (i.e. having not been launched by the primary application) then the key events are processed correctly. However when they are launched from the primary application the key events are not registered.
    I have tried requesting focus from the full screen JFrame but it doesn't seem to be able to.
    Any ideas?

    Possible that the keystrokes are really being trapped by the other gui, which stops registering them when it's not visible.
    IF that's the case, you'll need to re-design your keyboard trap as part of the second JFrame, wholly independent of the original JFrame or originating app. Also, it may be thread-starved i.e. operating off the originating program, which thread may be stopping when it has no focus.
    That's all the ideas I have.

  • Left and right side of screen does not register mouse clicks.

    The left and right side of my screen (when maximized) does not register a mouse click. I would estimate about 10 to 15 pixels in (top to bottom) before a button will register a click.
    If I work with in firefox not maximized everything works fine. As it stands I have had to add buttons to the left and right side of my Firefox navigation area to utilize the back and home button. I am also not able to use my scroll bar do to this situation with out connecting an external mouse.
    Operating system: Windows 7 Professional (64bit)
    Resolution 1280x800
    Computer: HP TouchSmart tm2 (1070us series)
    This laptop does have the touchpad type mouse, I do not think this is the problem though as it will work if firefox is not maximized.
    Assistance with this would be appreciated. I Love firefox but this is to much of an annoyance to deal with continually.

    Not sure if its ever overheated... I've never left it in a hot car if thats what you mean. Sometimes it gets very hot if I'm using EDGE for a while. I don't push hard which is why I don't think I caused it...
    I will bring it in this weekend and see what they say.
    I also think that the speakerphone sounds fuzzy and muffled a lot more than it did when I first bought it. So just another reason to bring it in.

  • Not registering screen touches but device otherwise seemingly functionable

    The problem is that it does not register any touches on the screen, though all buttons work fine. So I can turn it on and also do the shutdown, Home+Off button but can not Slide it to activate.
    I had this problem before where I thought it had completely failed and order a return service from Apple. Ironically, the day the UPS package arrived, I tried it again and it worked until yesterday, several months later.
    While I had no clue what happend the first time, I have an better idea this time. I was browsing with Safari when it crashed and froze the screen. Pressing home quit Safari after a while but from here, it stopped registering touches. After a hard reset, I was able to activate it and got to the home screen, I suspect my mistake was in re-entering Safari which again froze and stopped registering touches. Since then I have not been able to Touch anything regardless of any number of hard resets.
    I suspect it started working the last time after it had been without use for a while causing a completely battery drain and this is what I'm attempting now. Though a bit difficult with the activation screen only showing for a few seconds and the last bits of juice requiring turning it on every third second.
    I have been unable to find any postings of this problem on the forums or Google. Perhaps not using the right description.
    I hope to hear from anyone with knowledge of this problem.

    Dud...
    To perform a 'hard reset' (in the Apple OS) is to Apple>Shut Down and then restart, A 'soft reset' would be Apple>Restart
    Typically, only a 'hard reset' clears the memory.
    With the touch OS Apple says:
    If something is not working right, restarting or resetting iPod touch will likely solve the problem.
    Restart iPod touch: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
    Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPod touch. To turn iPod touch back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the
    same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    So it sounds like a touch Restart is what I would call a 'hard reset' and a touch Reset is what I would call a 'soft reset'.

  • IPhone is frozen. Screen does not register sliding movements.

    Recently my iPhone has not been working. First it is not registering my movements, as in the sliding/pressing of my finger is not working. I tried to restart it by pressing the turn off/on button as well as the home button at the same time and now it is stuck on the sign off screen with the red slider. I cannot get it off this screen and the screen stays on. I tried hooking my iPhone up to my PC to restore it in iTunes but my PC does not register that my iPhone is connected (the icon does not appear), therefore I cannot restore it. I've tried what I can to attempt to get it to work with no avail. There's no way for me to fix the issue that I know of if the phone will not cooperate by itself or with my PC. If anyone has a solution to this problem please let me know, I may just have to go to the Apple Store if not.

  • What if the right hand side of my screen does not register touch?

    what do I do if the right hand side of my screen does not register touch? I'm out of warranty also, what options do I have?

    If part of the screen is not touch sensitive, and you have tried power off/on and reset, the best option is a visit to an Apple genius bar to have the techs check and see what is wrong with the screen and touch circuitry.

  • Screen not registering "touch"

    So a couple weeks ago, I was using my iPod (1st generation touch) and the screen stopped registering touches. Meaning- I could return to the home screen, but I couldn't turn the iPod off control the music or anything. I put it aside and went back to it about half an hour later, and it was working again.
    About a week ago it did the same thing- started working about forty-five minutes after the failure.
    Today the screen stopped working, and its been four hours.
    I've been putting off having the iPod looked at because I'm waiting to get a used Mac from a friend and bring them both in at once (since going to the Apple store is a half-day-long affair).
    My question is: is this hardware or software? I've been putting off restoring it, since I don't want to wipe out the settings/music unless its absolutely necessary. Would this help at all, or should I just bring it in?

    I restored the ipod, and it seems to be working again.
    I'll probably bring it in next time I have to go to the Apple Store anyway.
    Thank you!

  • Condition not working if Part Number is not included in result

    Good day
    Please assist with the following?
    A user wants to display a summary of values for different key figures on all Parts belonging to certain vehicle categories. One of the key figures (KF1) must only display values > (greater than) u20180u2019. He does not want the Part number to display in the report, but KF1 must be based on the individual values of the parts, example if Part V001 has amounts u201C-R200.00u201D, u201CR10.00u201D and R20.00u201D, the summary total to be displayed in the result must = u201CR30.00u201D. (u201C-R200.00u201D must not be included)
    I have created a condition on this key figure (KF1) where I indicated the value > 0. When I run the query, the condition does not work on the summary of data, it still includes the values < (smaller than) u20180u2019.
    Is there a way I can display the correct values?
    Thanks in advance.
    Cj

    I am not sure if I understood your problem correctly. But to me seems like your problem can be solved at aggregates. I didnt understand your problem correctly, but let me put some pieces together and see of that helps you.
    Lets say you have 3 different KFs.
    KF1__KF2__KF3
    -200__10___20
    100___20___20
    Now if you create a fourth KF (CKF), you dont want to consider the negative values of KF1. Meanging CKF should display 30 and NOT -190.
    If that is the case for KF1, only, you can create one CKF1 which will calculate either 0 (if KF1 value is less than 0) or the KF1 value (if KF1 value is > 0). After this, your scenario will be,
    CKF1 = (KF1 > 0)*KF1+0
    KF1__CKF1_KF2__KF3
    -200____0____10___20
    100__100_____20___20
    After that create second CKF2 to sum CKF1 + KF2 + KF1
    KF1__CKF1__KF2__KF3__CKF2
    -200_____0___10___20____30
    100____100___20___20____140
    Now if your problem is that if part is not part of query result, you sitll want to perform this calculation at part level. In that case, you can create an exception aggregation for CKF2 as part level. So, even if part no is not in query, the calculation will be performed at part no level.

  • Parallel hint as part of index not working

    Hello,
    I think that I am misusing the parallel hint on this one, and would appreciate some guidance. I have an insert statement as such:
    INSERT INTO TABLE1
    SELECT column1, column2
    FROM table2;
    I modified the query so that it has a parallel:
    SELECT /*+ FULL(table2) PARALLEL(table2, 4) */
    column1, column2
    FROM table2;
    This parallel helps with the query's speed. However, when I use it with the insert statement on the top, it does not insert any record, nor does it give an error message:
    INSERT INTO TABLE1
    SELECT /*+ FULL(table2) PARALLEL(table2, 4) */
    column1, column2
    FROM table2;
    I put EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION ENABLE PARALLEL DML'; at the beginning of the procedure, but that did not help.
    I really need the parallel to be in the SELECT statement, that statement runs for about 3 hours without a parallel (due to large amounts of data - no problems with query itself), however it returns only about 10,000 records, and I don't need to insert those with a parallel hint.

    Can you show us the EXPLAIN PLAN output you get for your query and the one you get for your INSERT when using the parallel hints as posted?
    Please mention your database version (4-digits, e.g. 10.2.0.3).
    Please use DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY to format the EXPLAIN PLAN output if you're already on 9i or later, and please use the \ tag before and after the DISPLAY output to format it in fixed font for readability.
    What seems to be odd that you say that the result of the query seems to be different when using it as part of the INSERT statement? Are you sure that running the query standalone returns data whereas using exactly the same query in the INSERT statement inserts no records? This would be buggy behaviour.
