I'm having a problem with my M8. The digitizer registers touches when my finger is quite close to the screen (1mm) but I haven't actually touched it. It's not a massive problem as it's just 1mm but it makes the user experience quite strange. Sometimes I press something on the screen but two touches are registered (one when I approach the screen, another when I actually touch it). Or sometimes I'm going to press a button and the action happens before I actually touch the screen, leaving me thinking "WTF just happened?"
It's something similar to this but of course a lot less serious:

Can any other M8 owners check if this happens with their phone? Thanks in advance!
Yep, you can control the screen from 1mm above it. Makes it very stressfull trying to type at times lol
Yeah, the M7 did this for me too.

Can you guys push you glass down at the edges? I don't have to put a lot of pressure and the glass pushes down on the lcd and creates that blue mark

Yeap.
Sorry for digging this up. But I've just bought M8 last week. And I found this problem too. I struggle to type correctly. Is there anyway to fix this?
Yeah this is very annoying when I'm holding with my fingers just to the edge of the screen but its registering touches

Might be screen grounding issues.
Are anybody here got any experiences of the new HOX batches xx27. I have a xx24 with wifi and screen ripple issues but I getting a xx27 tomorrow.
Are there any issues with the newer batches or have all the problems been ironed out?
I've seen some threads with problems on the xx26 but not much mentioned about the xx27models, I suppose because they are new
Thanks

The screen ripples just with normal pressure or with extra pressure applied? damn you htc :crying:
Screen ripples is common on most LCD screens. Press tour laptop screen and it'll happen and such. It's barely noticeable and only noticeable if you look for it.
Let the glue settle it'll get better.

It does require extra pressure but not an extra ordinary amount. With regards to all lcd panels having this effect my HTC sensation didn't do this neither does my Motorola xoom hmmmmmm...

It depends on the LCD technology whether you it ripples under compression, some panel types do not ripple when pressed but are lacking in other respects.
The Gorilla glass should be enough to stop ripple under normal use but the glass does flex so if you push hard the LCD can ripple.

Ok this sh27 seems to have a vibro hardware issue, clicks every time haptic is used.
I was hoping all off the bugs would have been sorted out 4 months after launch but it seems not. What more annoying is I'm now out of the 28days and this need to sent off to HTC.
I'm trying to live with it but find it more annoying each day.

What do you mean it clicks? these are hardware issues., not bugs
Too true this is a hardware issue. It sounds like the vibro clicks every time the haptic feedback is used. This happens on all keyboards and capacitive buttons. It's almost as if sound on key press is on and the sound is a horrible annoying click.

Cheers. There's no 'SH' mentioned on that screen on my phone. If it's something to do with 'Device Serial Number', then it starts with HT23CW. I guess that would make it an earlier version?

Yeah that's quite an early one.
SH is manufactured in Shanghai, HT in Taiwan.
The 23 means March (24 is April, etc), the C means 12th day.
When my one X is charging on textile like a pillow or sth it heats up like crazy. Anyone with the same problem?
Also my lens looks like it is gonna give up on me any day now..
I always take great care of my phone, before this one had a hd2 had it for 3 year, not a single scratch. I hate the cheap ass build quality.
I won't buy a dumb plastic piece of sh.. anymore. HTC please, for your next phones, use aluminium.
I wonder, can the heating problems be fixed?

Well, y'know, you could put it on something thermally conductive rather than a thermal insulator.

Is it normal for the screen to rainbow with pressure (force)?
I noticed a slight rainbow on the right edge of the screen when I put pressure (not light, I would say medium pressure).
I noticed when applying a screen protector and pushing bubbles out with my thumb with pressure.
Is this normal or a defect?

For a PC Monitor it is normal, but that is a solid Smartphone with Gorilla Glass.
I don't think that it's normal.
Depending on how high the pressure really is.
Do you have this effect only on one side (right) or on all sides?
You should check all sides with normal pressure,if the display springs back and for on one side.
That can be an indication that the display on this spot is loose.
If that is the case, you should talk with your distributor.
On my m8 the Display was loose on the left side.
I've checked it on my One X and on my One m7 and I don't have this effect.

Did you bother to exchange it for your M8 or you didn't care enough?
Mines mostly on the right side, with a good amount of pressure.

If you're getting a rainbow, its not seated right which will cause durability issues. Exchange it.

It's not a rainbow, it's a grey colour that only happens with a good amount of pressure on the right side edge of my screen. Again, only with pressure and not in actual usage of phone. Does this warrant exchange?

Not only that the Screen was loosed on the left side.
On Day 10, the Display died, black Screen without backlight.
Now it's on the way back to the distributor for a replacement.
You should contact the dealer for a replacement as well.

Nope the display is excellent. I have to put a good amount of pressure on that side for it to show a small amount of grey on the edge.

Then it is ok.
When the display is seated firmly,there is no reason to be concerned.
You are talking of a very high pressure.
Wow! If you press hard enough on any screen it will show discoloration for a brief moment. The amount of crap that gets posted sometimes ridiculous and comical.

This isn't a resistive screen, its capacitive. It should take a good deal of pressure to cause any discoloration or banding on these types of screens. When yours breaks, I don't want to see you post about it or I'll make sure to refer you to this post.

Anyway i cannot replicate it anywhere on my screen as its solid. OP should exchange as this is not normal
Mine is also the same as op but those T-Mobile dicks refused to exchange it since the display model did the same. I guess it's not too big of a deal doesn't show up unless I press with my fingernail with medium pressure. Normal touches doesn't do anything. Plus there's a 1 year warranty if it'll break hopefully it's within this period
