Touch Screen Issues on Xperia Z1

Who else is experiencing touch screen issues?
On my phone, the screen fails to register the finger gesture appropriately, for instance, a tap on the screen will be identified as scroll up. single touch on the back button will be registered as many taps, ultimately exiting the application.
OHH!this phone has made my life **bleep**!

  • WT10-A Touch screen Issues

    I bought this less than a week ago and i am having issues with the touch screen. It just stops working all of a sudden for no reason and i have to restart to make it work. It will work fine for hours sometimes but sometimes i have to restart every five minutes. Can someone please help me solve this issue. ThanksKarman

    I'm no scientist (although I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express)... but do you think that perhaps the touch screen issues a lot of folks are experiencing could be due to liquid evaporation? Maybe these people are leaving the iPhone in a hot car (or some other really warm place) for an extended period and not admitting it? I mean it is summertime.
    Not liquid, but you could be onto something.
    Heat is one of the few things that can cause a capacitive screen system go out of calibration, due to the effect on surrounding part specs. Perhaps that's what we're seeing.
    I suppose someone with the problem could stick their phone in the refrigerator (not freezer!) for ten minutes and see if that cures their problem.
    More likely, there are several different problems going on, and what works for one won't work for others.
    My biggest suspicion is that a memory interface is on the edge (either power or timing), and thus weird glitches show up. Restorting the device only when it is fully charged might be one experiment. Give us a dozen bad devices, the source code, a lab with an ICE, and a coupla weeks... and we could figure out what's going on.

    where to buy touch screen for Sony xperia z1
    Hello Help me!
    Faced with the problem of maintenance.
    I busted my phone touch screen. And I do it or who can not be repaired.
    Tell me where to order and buy (delivered to Krasnoyarsk in Russia) touch screen on the Sony Xperia Z1????

    We do not sell the individual components of our handsets to prevent unauthorised repairs of our handsets as this could lead to further damage of the device, voiding of warranty and even personal injury if the handset is not repaired correctly. With this being the case I would advise you to contact your local Xperia Care team to have this arranged for repair by an authorised repair agent.

  • IPhone 5S touch screen issues

    Hi! I have a lot of issues with the touch screen of my iPhone 5S! the touch screen have areas without response! but not always the sames areas!
    each picture represent the different areas without response in the touch screen! are not the same in some cases!
    I´m writing from Argentina, so we don´t have apple store here to go to replace the cellphone or repair it! I could buy the whole touch screen and replace it by my self, but I don´t know if is only a problem with the touch screen or maybe an issue with the battery or other hardware components!
    Sorry for my English! thank you in advance!

  • Portege M750 Touch screen issues

    I have a Portege M750 that has been upgraded to Windows 7. It came with Vista.  The digitizer portion of the screen works fine but the touch portion does not.  I did a complete fresh reinstall.  I cleared the cache and the temp files and downloaded the driver.
    The touch portion still does not work. Does anyone else have an idea, or helpful hints.  Is there a way to figure out the original configuration through Toshiba?

  • N97 (White unbranded) - Touch Screen Issues

    Hi,
    I had purchased N97 white from Nokia Flagship store few months back. From the last month or so i am seen my mobile's touch screen at times freezes and then on its own works after some time. This problem lasts for few seconds to few minutes and really make the phone dead like i can not receive the call using the touch screen or green button.
    I have visted flagship store many times and booked it also but unfortunately nokia care people have been flashing the software and saying that it works. Unfortunately it does not look to be a software problem. I now have again booked it and have asked for the replacement.
    Has anybody else faced the similar problem ? Does anyone know what's the likelihood of i getting the replacement and what's the turn around time from nokia.
    Thanks.
    Sandeep

    i doubt that they will replace your device if it has been more then 30 days since you bought it. they might fix it for you by swapping some components if indeed this is a hardware issue. here in the US because i have to send out the phone to another state to get it fixed it may take several weeks to get the phone back. it all depends on where you live and if you have a care center by you.

  • Windows 7 Touch screen issues

    I have a need on a windows 7 Restive touch device to have a touch and hold function just like a mouse click and Hold. Currently by default this works as a right click, disabling tap and hold to right click does not resolve the issue. This is the scenario:The touch screen is an HMI, it is used to control a PLC. I have a button that "Jogs" a motor. The motor will run at a slow speed in one direction as long as the button on the screen is held down.I can do this action in XP with no issue using third parting touch screen software specific to the display and I can do it on the Windows 7 system with the mouse. The system I have does not appear to have specific software for the display rather that display takes care of the translation and then sends commands to the OS. Cool except I don't have the function I need. Anyone have issues with...

  • 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.

  • Touch screen issues after win 10 upgrade

    Hello! I upgraded my Touchsmart 600 (http://support.hp.com/id-en/document/c02507415) to Windows 10. Everything works fine besides touch screen. It actually worked right after I installed new drivers for Graphic card, it worked really fine. After Shutdown or Restart, so after rebooting it stopped working. Now only works on login screen, strange. Whwn I log in, stops. I tried reinstalling Graphic drivers, just to see what happens, and my touch screen worked again. When I restart, again only on login screen. Awkward. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Hrvoje.

    Similar issues here with a Pavilion TS11. Touch screen works intermittently.  Works fine immediately after booting, then randomly quits working. I started to think it was just a coincidence and a wire was loose or something was malfunction in the screen itself. It does randomly start to work again though. I hate it because so far I really like Win10.

  • C7 Touch Screen Issues

    Hi, 
    My C7 Touch screen is working fine. I am able to swipe and select. But it stops working when you click on Options Or Menu band which is above the Phone Answer / Reject Key.
    Above that band it works. Also when I rotate the screen. I am able to press "Back" button but the "Option" menu comes at same place so unable to click.
    Please help

    Hello, C7Techno. Are you still having an issue with the phone's touch screen? If so, did something happen to it prior to this? Anyway, you could try switching it off/on and then check if you will be able to press them. Another option is to reset the phone's settings to their original values. This will not delete your files stored on it. Go to Settings > Phone > Phone management > Factory settings > Restore > Enter the security code. The default code is 12345 unless changed. 
    Let us know the outcome.

It is contarct with VirginThanks in advance

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    I'm sorry to hear. If the touch does not work, it's not much that you can do on your own more than performing a software repair to exclude software related problems. This can be done via our program Update service:
    http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
    Download and install SUS, follow the instructions that appear.
    Note that the personal data will be lost when performing this repair and if you cannot access the menu, you are unable to back up this data.

  • Weird Touch screen issue...

    I bought my 8G iPhone the day they came out and I love it. My problem started shortly after I upgraded to 1.1.3. The touch screen has stopped recognizing any of the icons or menus on the very bottom of the screen. Can't select phone, mail, Safari, iPod, etc. I can't switch the iPod from playlists to movies, to podcasts, etc. At first I thought that the screen just stopped responding, but then I realized that I could still unlock it from sleeping by using the slider at the bottom of the screen. I've tried rebooting, I've tried restoring. Nothing yet has worked. If it was simply a hardware issue I'd just take it in to Apple and see what they could do for me. The fact that I can still use the slider makes me think it's a software issue with 1.1.3. Anyone else seeing this? Anyone found a work around/solution?

    You mentioned that you could still slide to unlock your phone? If you can do that then it shouldn't be hardware. Try resetting the phone by holding down the home button and the on/off button until the phone turns itself off then back on again. After that try restoring the phone again, but this time near the end of the restore process when it asks to restore to your backup or setup as a new phone, choose setup as a new phone. If it still doesn't work after that you might be able to try restoring on another computer or in a new user on your computer so that it will download a new restore file for the iPhone. There could have been a problem with the file that it was trying to restore from.
