Hi,
after rooting my HOX (let it unrooted roundabout 6 months) the touchscreen makes me mad sometimes. Sometimes when I want to slide a side down, it zooms, sometimes I'm unable to tip on a Button -it takes the one above or thereunder, it doesn't recognice to slide, long-tip is a short-tip and links will be followed or opened instead of the context-menue. Sometime nothing happens (including the 3 buttons on the bottom of the screen). Mostly it ends if I lock the phone (with the Hardware-button upper right -On/off) und unlock it, slide the ring to unlock it comletely, and the it works fine. Sometims also the keyboard have some unfunny effects -cant reach the upper umlauts, other letters will be recognized then the touched.
I've tried to calibrate the touchscreen several times, set default, recalibrate, .... doesn't work.
Did anyone have a idea what to do?
EDIT: Thread can be deleted/Closed as this system is not existing anymore -I've updated und unrooted it, and the touchscree-promlem is also gone.

Hi,
while listening to mp3s having my MDAIII in the inner pocket of my jacket the device hung up.
After a reset the rom list on the boot screen was empty. Anticipating something bad I resetted the device again immediately.
Now the rom versions were present and the device booted normally.
Trying to enter the pin code I noticed the not working touch screen.
Using the keyboard I was able to enter the pin. The device seemed to work perfect, except:
* not working touch screen
* not working phone buttons
* some remapped keyboard keys
Hoping the best I installed explode's BA_WM5_AKU3.5_R3. Everything was fine until the WM initialization came up...
... Tap the touch screen .... FCUK!
So I can't do anything with my beloved device.
Any hints or help appreciated!
I have the exact wierd problem.... Its like the screen is miss-alligned (rotated by 90 degrees)... The start button instead of being in the top left corner, its in the top right corner.... The ok button instead of being in the top right corner, its in the bottom right corner.... etc etc...
Anybody can help?
Thanks

Removed the battery over night ...
... after reloading next day - everything was fine.
Seems the TP2 also has a "grip of death" of sorts. Basically if you hit the Volume Buttons on the side of the devise and touch the screen, it automatically activates the Screen align util and until you complete the Screen align to the devices satisfaction, You are stuck there.
Basically this translates to any time you use the Volume Buttons while holding the phone to your face, It activates the Screen Align Util. (At least that is what happens to me about 10 times a day)
Does anyone know of a way to deactivate this "Feature/Major Annoyance"?
Thanks
mine does not do this. i suspect something is wrong with your device.
This also does not happen with my phone, just tested it out. Even called myself at work. Are you using a cooked ROM or stock? I am using stock ROM from AT&T
Try again. Hit both Volume Buttons (Simultaneously) on the side of the phone and tap the screen, It will start up the align screen until every time. I have verified that this VZN and Sprint TP2`s. It may be a CDMA thing but this feature is designed into the phone (And it sucks!).
Anyone know of a way to disable this?
mine does that from time to time, but I never figured out what causes it, but, you are right it is ANNOYING when it happens.
Cooked rom, if it makes any difference.
Hi all,
Confirmed on UK TP2 - stock WM6.5 ROM, no special apps etc installed. Had to soft reset to get out from a mixed screen align/text message app screen.
No looping align screen after reset - but annoying. Best suggestion (without being sarcastic!) - don't press both volume buttons at once, seems to be a way into a "fix the problem" mode for those with grossly un-aligned screens. How else could you get into align screen to fix the problem? ... aka "feature not a bug".
adam.
both volum buttons?
under what scenario are you hitting both volum buttons at the same time, with enough force to depress them, and touching the screen? I tried doing this on purpose and its almost impossible to do with intention much less on accident. you would have to be gripping your phone with massive, angry, force. maybe the fix is to stop talking to whomever it is that is pissing you off.
in anycase, i still could not get this replicated on the tmobile tp2. of course i am using the fastest and most stable rom provided for this phone: stock wm 6.1 with tf3d. so maybe its a feature of 6.5.x and some rendition of sense 2.x
Hold the Phone in your left hand. In my case my Thumb naturally rests on the Volume Buttons. My Thumb covers both Volume buttons. Now if I get a call and the phone against my Face and I attempt to adjust the volume with my Thumb (By rocking my Thumb up or down), Sometimes I manage to accidentally hit both. If that happens, The Screen align will start up every time because the screen is already touching my face.
I have talked with many other TP2 owners that have this same problems however they did not know what was causing it. All they knew was the Screen align kept starting up randomly.
Back to.. Is it possible to disable this? Maybe even assign a different key combination to start the screen align util such as Vol Down and endcall or something. It is too easy to accidentally press both volume buttons if you are on a call. If you do that while the phone is touching your face, the screen align will start and the phone is now locked until you get out the stylus and go through the realign.
Hello,
I find out that on the right and bottom edge of the touch screen, does not work properly. some times i have to tap more than one time to make it recognize the tap. and also when i pull notification bar down sometimes i cant send it back up. it gous up for half centimeter and comes back down. (as if it were magnetized ) i have to slide it up multiple times to close it. i tried several roms, but the issue is still there.
so i am asking what is wrong with my phone? how can i calibrate my screen. what solution do you suggest?

some gnex have a touchscreen issue. a couple that i have had had bad issues with the softkeys being unresponsive. unfortunately from what i've seen, google has not come up with a solution to this. in your case, it just may be a bad digitizer or something else touch related. i would try going back to complete stock and relocked and see what that does.
Hi all,
I have had a strange problem occur to me since yesterday. At first I could no longer pull down the notification menu. After enabling `show touch` in the developer options I could see that my touch would no longer register on the top ~1cm of the screen.
Then it became worse and now the touch screen does not work around 98% of the time across the entire screen. So doing anything on this phone is either impossible or it takes for ever. I have to press and press and press and sometimes it registers, but mostly it doesn't.
I took it apart and made sure all the contacts were still attached, put it back together again and for a few minutes the touch worked perfectly again, apart from the top 1cm. But now it has gone back to being nearly completely unresponsive.
I also tried a factory reset, going back a few nightly builds of CM13 and so forth ... nothing has helped.
Is there a fix for this, or is my digitizer broken, meaning I'll have to either replace the entire screen, the digitizer if possible or just get a new phone and bin this G3?
It hasn't had any tumbles or falls, nor any water contact.
Thanks.
So today while using my Xperia Z5p, a specific part of the screen does not respond anymore to touch. It is exactly at the point the "send" button is sitting on when your keyboard is open in Whatsapp, LINE, WeChat, etc messengers. I tried diagnostics and I can wipe the whole screen clear, so I assume my screen is not dead anywhere.
HOWEVER, if I start a touch on the point I described earlier (beside power button), it does not respond to my touch. I can only start my touch on another point and drag pass it just fine.
Also, it DOES respond on some windows, I've found that it works normally when I pull my notification bar down. However, everywhere else it does not work.
It goes back to normal if I reboot my device, but after some time it occurs again. It has occured 3 times in 9 hours today.
Anyone else with the same issue? It does not respond if my starting point of touch is there, and does nothing even if I drag across the whole screen, so long as I started my touch at the specific point.
