Anyone else had the problem with the xperia play where the touchscreen doesn't seem to be working properly? It detects input in areas where there isn't any but only when i touch specific parts. I tested this in a touchscreen tester app and whilst only using one finger, it would sometimes detect 2 and sometimes not detect at all? Due to being rooted and bootloader unlocked, my warranty is void. What could be the cause of the problem?
EDIT: nevermind, problem seems to have gone

It could actually be a problem with the my little pony game. Seems to return after I play that

Damn evil ponies have given your screen a STD lol
Is it with the charger plugged in or battery? The phone tend to be less responsive while charging.
Seems like a software issue.
Noticed the same thing today, I was using a Verizon brand usb charger and playing MLP, it got laggy and pretty much unplayable.
If you wanna play and charge at the same time you need to use the official SE XP usb charger.
I only use the official charger. I don't think it was on charge at the time

Mine goes crazy sometimes (in fact it's doing it right now by constantly bringing down the notification bar as I type this grr). Anyway, mine sometimes goes mad as I use the keyboard, often typing additional letters as I write, and also when I'm on homescreen it goes into clock itself and switches the alarm on and off like a madman. I turn the phone off and clean the screen vigorously and it fixes it temporarily.

This happened to me twice.
Turn your phone off and wash your screen with a wet cloth.
Just make sure you do it carefully.

My Phone makes crackle sounds when I'm playing music, it crackles only while music is on. If I touch the screen sliding my finger it will crackkle but if I don't touch the screen the audio is fine but only crackles when I touch the screen. Plus if I hit the power button to turn off screen sometimes it will crackle as well.
PowerAmp,Music Player,TuneInRadio etc.... this just tarted to happen a few days ago. Can someone explain this to me. Because these crackle sounds need to go away it sounds bad.

There are at least two possibly major elements you're leaving out in your description. One, how if and where are you plugged in for power (if so using what cables) and two, what are you using to listen - phone speaker or headphones and if so, what kind/how are they connected? These things may have a big effect on your sound and issues with it.
Running Voodoo sound by any chance? If so it is a known issue and there is a thread dedicated to the issue.
We never narrowed it down,but I am now using Twilight 1.0.4 Vsound v4 or 5,and the pops are not present atm...

I was using both in auxiliary to car and headphones it doesn't matter plus kernels aren't the issue. Even when not charging when charging nothing matters even if I just use regualr speaker from phone it all just crackles. I Odined I Wiped I reinstalled nothing changes it just crackles

Sounds there are some loose electrical contacts.. defective hardware. :/ take it to a Sprint Corporate shop, they should be able to fix it relatively cheap if not for free.

I would take it in and chat with a rep before unrooting tho. No need to unroot if they have a way to fix without wiping your phone. Quite a few reps have their phone modded too.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
I would unroot because they can flag your account for rooting and you will no longer be able to receive a replacement phone.not every rep is going to want to be your buddy lol

I'm sure this is entirely possible, but when I said chat, I don't mean divuldge every last mod you have done to your phone. I simply meant unrooting might be unnecessary. Every shop is going to be different. I know the shop near me has a few rooted users. Of course though, there is no denying that unrooting your phone is your safest bet.

Try formatting the phone and sd. Odin to stock. Root then rom. I have fixed this issue twice on my phone by doing this.

Twilight 1.0.4 is the kernel people there say doesnt have the problem. Havent got around to testing. I can say that between the default bonsai kernel and genocide 1.0 kernel the crack/pops/distortion is less noticeable on genocide but its still there.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
And in general, there isn't a problem. It only affects some people.
Before placing blame and switching kernels, uninstall Voodoo Control, reboot, clear cache/dalvik-cache, and reboot again. See if the problem goes away. It probably will.
On my phone it had nothing to do with the kernel. Once the stutter appeared nothing but formatting fixed it. After that I could apply any kernel and the phone sounded great.

Just a quick update sometimes i dont even touch screen and it crackles like im sitting on the music player ( PowerAmp ) and when the screen automatically shuts off it crackles. SO WTF, what does touching a screen when audio is playing have to do anything to make it crackle it doesnt crackle any other way.
Plus sometimes when i touch screen it doesnt crackle its random
Another thing it only crackles when the screens on. as well I can play music or audio and have screen off and touch screen it doesn't crackle.

If you have tried the ultimate wipe (ODIN, Re-root) and flashed a freshly downloaded ROM and kernel and tried a different app.. I find it hard to believe its anything but hardware. Another thing you can try is using a different battery. It sounds definately electrical related.
Best of luck!

The title pretty much says it all. It was working fine last week, then out of the blue, it stopped. It doesn't blink with any notifications (sms, Google voice, emails, etc.) and doesn't turn red while charging (with the phone on and off.)
I tried some "LED color" whatever app off the play store to test it; no luck. I tried a few other apps that let you test out notifications (go sms, sms popup,) and made sure the light was either red or blue, but that didn't work either. I have no task killers.
I said, "well, I might as well Odin back to stock..bhfuedjejudhfrdhxbwysu" and I did. I reflashed cleanGB with the cleanGB kernel. No dice.
Are there any other ways to get it to work? Its annoying cause I don't know when my phone is finished charging or if I get a text. Thanks.

Was it working on stock? If not then it is a hardware issue.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
It wasn't working on stock either. I've honestly only dropped my phone about 3 times since I've bought it (around mid-2010, I believe.)
I was thinking that it might be that I leave it charging overnight & the LED stays on for whatever time I sleep. Maybe it might blown out something in there. You think that might be a problem?
I just want to know for my future phones.

LEDs can go bad my man. That's most likely what happened IMO.

Damn, that sucks. All good things must come to an end. Well, I'll check to see if the warranty I bought from Best Buy still covers the phone.
Thanks a lot for the quick replies, guys.

So the other day I was playing minecraft on my xperia play and the touch pads were acting weird. My screen would randomly move without me touching it. when I did try to use them that randomness was fighting what I wanted it to do so I got no where. To me it seems like its registering touches on its own. has any one else come by this problem? also how do I fix it?
Yes it has happend to me, What rom u on?, Im on a GB Rom, Im running The Super Nexus Project,
Check my Sig for more info!
I just bought it and was testing everything out. I haven't rooted yet.
Oh ok, might be a MCPE BUG as it only happens in mcpe 0.7.1

Maybe your hardware is damaged. It you can return it you should or exchange it. Seems like its an actual touchpad problem not software though I havent seen anyone mention this before. Bad luck

Got similar few months ago. Screen starts randomly behave as touched and touchpads gone. When turned off and removed battery it starts working properly until next time.
I tried stock firmware same happen. Even I've send phone to Sony service twice but no resolve.
I have not much problems with random screen touches now but before using touchpads need to turn off phone and remove battery.
i did this also and still nothing. it just spazzes out on every game that involves the touch pads.
Hello everyone. I am owner of a htc dhd (ace). I have a problem and a question for you.
My touchscreen is working fine but when I am charging it and I using the phone becomes almost unusable. I mean for example. I have my finger in the middle of the screen. Suddenly status pull down, calendar opened, clock, my profile and I haven't put of finger of the screen.
This happens ONLY when I am charging it.
Thanks for advance.
Edit. The problem exist with every rom and only on charging.
Edit 1. I am using a Samsung charger because I lost mine.

This thread has been moved to the Q&A subforum which is the proper subforum for all questions. Please be mindful of where you post in the future.
Before anyone else jumps on saying its the Samsung charger causing it, I'll tell you I also use my Samsung charger with my DHD without any issues so unless something else is going on then I don't think so....
You say it does it with all Roms you've tried maybe it might help to list which ones.
The only other suggestion is if your s-on and unlocked, did you flash the correct boot.img for the installed ROM? If you didn't then I'd strongly suggest this could be your cause, because the 2 parts are matched for each other...

Have you wiped system, data and cache?
One of my Samsung chargers do the same to every phone/tablet I connect (Samsung and others) , so I think it may be charger problem...

Yes it's definitely electrical 'noise' generated by the charger causing the problem.
If you earth yourself and hold the phone (without a case) the problem will magically disappear.
First of all, thank you for your answers.
I tried to s on and s off again (now i m s off) full wipe everything but nothing happens.
Today I've noticed that the problem exist when I'm having to low battery in charging, for example in 2-40.
So maybe is an electrical problem cause of charger?

I had this problem when i connected my phone to non-SonyEricsson charger. And after i changed battery. So the question is: Did you changed your battery or charging your phone with other than non-SonyEricsson charger?
hello and thanks for the answer, charger is original but battery its the 3000 mah from china...however even changing the battery with the original one does not solve the problem...
