Weird touch screen problems - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Attached youtube video.
It works when in hand but when on flat surface it goes haywire
Anyone have a fix for this issue?
What more info would it require to pin point what cause it?

Does the surface have a magnet anywhere, by any chance?

I got a new g4 and having the same problems.
Have you solved it?
What is the app name for the screen test used on the YouTube video?

[Q] Camera Problem please help

Hi all, first off i'm new to the TP2 forum, just got my phone yesterday (retired my Kaiser). I love the TP2, am enjoying it great so far.
However I used the camera once to take a pic and it was fine, a huge improvment on my kaiser. But then later that night I went to use it again and I noticed a thick, crooked black line starting from the bottom of the screen (right hand side in landscape mode), ending a quarter of the way in. It's only visible when I use the rear camera and on both the still and video camera mode.
It wasn't there when I first used the camera and I haven't dropped it. I checked the lense but I don't see a mark on it.
Has anyone else had this issue? And is there a fix for it? Normally I'd probably let it slide except I have only just got this phone and now there is thia stupid black line on my pics and videos. Please help.
By the way its a stock rom I haven't changed anything except add a few cabs and most of those I installed before the camera issues.
Fixed it! I accidently dropped it on the carpet from a low height and the back cover slipped a bit I put it back and checked the camera and hey presto whatever it was dissapeard! YAY! Although I don't recommend dropping your phone as a fix if you ever experience a problem like this

Moto 360 Gyrometer Issue?

Is anybody else having issues with this? My 360 appears to have stopped working on this front. The screen no longer comes on when raising my wrist to my face, and the pedometer is showing 0 steps for today.
A reboot of the watch appears to have fixed the screen issue, but just curious if any others have experienced this problem, and I also wanted to document the problem in case my watch is defective.
It looks like the pedometer is still reading 0 steps.
It did start working again randomly that day. Must have just been a freak issue. Glad to see nobody else is experiencing problems at least!

I have problems too, and a reboot or restart doesn´t fixed it until now.http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-360/help/problem-movement-sensor-t2900394

Samsung Galaxy 2017 underwater filming issue

Hi All,
1st time on here. Puzzled to this problem, struggling for a solution.
When recording video under water (under 1m) and its great, however when the phone exits the water, the video automatically stops recording.
Is there a way round this? I'm stumped on this.
Any help would be great, thank you
The phone doesn't have this functionality built in, it shouldn't happen.
Have you tried rebooting it?

Hi. Its a common problem when your using a phone in water. The touchscreen goes crazy due to the water. There are a few solutions to this.
1. The method i use. I have turned on volume buttons for clicking pics or video recording in camera settings. after doing that i installed touch lock. it basically locks your touch screen so that the water does not make certain parts of your screen get pressed and stop the recording. so start recording using volume buttons and then lock the touchscreen. ur recording wont stop.
2. download a spycam software like scos that can record videos when screen is off or make it take pics in interval. turn it oon and turn of screen.
3. Thr are apps made for underwater recording. but the good ones have only picture taking ability. some of the others arent that great while taking pics.
i had this issue with my a7. it would be fine for first 10 mins. but after that when i start recording n go underwater it would stop. i tried all 3 and im most comfortable with 1st one as i prefer using the stock camera app.

My Google Pixel XL 2 Screen Keeps Stuttering (hiccups) - Device Defect? Video Inside

So I've been having this problem ever since I got the phone and it's getting really irritating. Regardless of what app I'm using it would randomly show a black screen or sometimes the page would disappear and reappear and anything that was playing would reset.
Would appreciate any sort of help I can get in this. Is this a software or hardware issue? What are steps that can help resolve this if any?

Screen Lag in Netflix When Touching Fingerprint Scanner

Just wandering if anyone else experiences the weird issue i have. So i'm in Netflix app watching something and if you hold your finger on the scanner while something is playing does the video Lag for you or is it just me? Because it lags when you hold your finger on it then stops when your not. Any advice would help
I just tried it and I got the same thing. Very strange. I thought maybe it had something to do with the fingerprint reader always being active for the swipe down gesture but I turned that off and it still happened. I also tested with the apps for YouTube, Amazon Prime Video and HBO Go and none of those had the same issue.
The Netflix app does support the Oreo picture in picture feature. Maybe that is related somehow?
Either way I don't think it's a huge deal. Not something I've ever ran into until I read this post.
