Hello.
i imported a nexus 7 tablet from a local market because its still not officialy available here yet. anyway everything is fine except when i want to move an icon to the right page or anything that come close to the right edge of the screen.
i tried to use a drawer app to see what is the problem, it seems when i draw a line from left to right, the line stops just before it reach the right edge of the screen. now if i only draw a vertical line on the right edge, it will work. so i am not sure what is the issue when i swipe/draw a line / move an icon from left to the right edge.
i then tried the mutli touch test program, it detects my fingers on the edge of the screen however, i find it very point of the screen is jettry ? like it shakes as if its not detecting a single pixel and detecting the one beside it.
i duno do i have a dude or they are all like that

Try the touch screen fix if your device is rooted and you know the basics of tinkering!

Hi Guys,
I think this has been already asked before but i did not a get a perfect solution for this, i brought a the Note 2 and i tried using the s Pen and found that when even not touching the screen in the apps/home screen if i scroll left and right it scrolled the page just like that, i did not even touch the screen for it and it worked to scroll the pages just like that with 2 cms away from the screen and the next day when i try to hover it, its not working like that, it asks me to touch the screen in order to scroll the pages or hover it to the corner of the screen to show the arrow mark where it scrolls (even here i don't have to touch it), i saw lots of videos , and everyone are trying to touch the screen and move it, and as everyone said , we need change that potentiometer and things, even i tried that and its not working. please clarify me, will i be able to swipe screens left and right without touching it, like before, or its a setting i have changed or i have a issue with S pen, i am totally confused, help me out guys.Thanks in Advance.:crying:
I had an issue pop up about 5 days ago that I haven't been able to find any help about so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. When touching the top of my screen from about mid-screen all the way to the left edge half the time it won't recognize my input now. The status bar still expands so the issue is starting right below that. Alot of times when I am trying to use a back button on the top left corner or type an address into the web browser etc the screen will not register my touch at all. Maybe 1 out of 30 taps it will work but this is baffling me. I have tried fresh rom installs and switching keyboards/apps but that doesn't do anything. Could it be screen calibration or the screen going bad?
the easiest way I can explain this issue and consistently replicate it is if I take an app on the home screen and long press and try to drag it to the "remove" trashcan, about the time I get to the trash can the app will jump above the trashcan.

I just bought the Note 4 and after installing a custom recovery my bottom portion of the screen doesn't work (specifically the area where the app drawer is located on the home screen). I can use the S pen any where on the screen. I have now reverted my phone back to stock with the hopes of fixing this problem though it didn't help. Is there anything else I can do.
Also, the top portion of the screen that works seems to be off be 2-3cm. This makes me think that the calibration of the touch sensor maybe be off. Is there any way to fix that?
Edit: it seems that when I go into landscape mode there is no recognition error. Perfect accuracy and there isn't a zone that doesn't work.

Im assuming you have D.E. version of the note 4 as the retail is locked. Next question ive seen people have issues with both s-pen and screen, so is there a way you can try another s-pen on your screen and try your s-pen on another screen?

The S-Pen works fine on my phone and other devices. There just seems to be a block where the touch sensor doesnt pick up on anything. It also seems that the area for the touch sensor that is recognized by the software shrunk and isn't actually broken. So lately I have been trying to find a way to re calibrate it or find some sort of system file for me to edit the value and put them back to normal.
I noticed after upgrading to Lollipop that it was difficult to navigate menus near the top of the screen in some apps. I turned on the "pointer location" option and sure enough I found very strange results.

This first screenshot is me running two fingers all the way to the top of the screen, and once i reached the top i ran them towards the edge of the screen. As you can see there is an area where the pointer location bugs out.

This image is just a single finger running horizontally across the top of the screen. The top line is where my finger actually was, but the phone also registered extra touches as you can see from the line below. There's even a section where the top line didn't register at all.
This is a Verizon phone, never been rooted, and hasn't been dropped or wet. I noticed while making this post that the area i am having issues with aligns almost perfectly with the top part of Sense's notification menu.
Is this normal or do I need to exchange my phone?
I am having the same issue with my phone. When I turn on show touches in developer options or install a multitouch test app, it'll show an extra touch just below where I'm touching but only when I'm touching at the top of the screen. Stock lollipop, never rooted, no water damage.

I don't. I didn't want to do that yet. Was hoping to see if anyone else had the issue and if they were able to resolve it.
Just want to see if anyone was able to resolve this issue.
fixed!
we need the old piezo lighter's element. The phone must be turned off. A few strokes on the screen near the problem area, and voila, the screen works again. Do not be afraid, the phone will not be damaged

My watch was working perfectly before the 5.1.1 update, but ever since the update, it is slow to wake, unable to swipe away cards from the watch face without opening them, the touch sensitivity is TERRIBLE....have to swipe over and over to get it to register, and for notifications I am unable to select "ALL"...can only select "priority" and "none".
Is anyone else having these problems?
5.1.1 problems are being discussed here if you're not aware:

No problem in starting a new thread, though.

I noticed that the touch screen seems derpy to me too. Something is definitely weird with the toggle shade thingy. I'm having the same problem with selecting "all". You can get it, but you have to find the exact spot below and to the left and tap frantically like a dozen times. I reccomend using the test app in developer settings and open the touch test. It will display a small grid and it will trace all your touches. Don't worry if it says fail. Just notice whether or not its tracking your finger. To get it to pass you have to turn the lines green by swiping in a certain direction. Mine tracks perfectly so, for me at least, the hardware is fine. Definitely a software issue.

Yesterday I installed the Android M preview on my phone, and so I had to do a reset on my watch. Now all of the touchscreen wonkiness has gone away, and it's working fine!
Before I was unable to get the app list to appear by swiping from the right, but only by tapping once. Also, I couldn't swipe in the center of the screen in the mode selector shade, but only above or below the row of icons. Now that's all working as well.
