Hi, I recently obtained a Huawei Watch and everything was working swimmingly on it for a while....
Within the first couple of days the watch would be acting as if I was swiping on the screen, even though I wasn't touching it, happened soon after I turned gestures on so I turned gestures off. A real painful process as the watch would be performing random swipes that I hadn't done. Eventually had to hold the button on the watch to reboot it.
Turning gestures off seemed to solve the problem but just recently it has returned, it is now so bad that I can't even enter my swipe code as the watch thinks I'm touching somewhere else!!
Anyone seen this behaviour before or should I RMA the device?

Ghost touches and swipes reminds me of a time I cleaned my tablet's screen with a cleaner that was not designed for touch-sensitive screens. When I brought the tablet back from standby, I was greeted with touches and swipes all over the screen! Had to re-clean the screen with a cloth lightly dampened in warm water and a very small amount of regular soap then follow up with a cloth just dampened in warm water. Might want to give it a try as it's possible you've got a thin film of something on your watch's screen...

So... I replaced my perfectly working glass screen the other day, just to change the color
All went well it seemed.
But now, the touch stops responding completely at random intervals. Sometimes after a minute, sometimes after an hour.
All i have to do to get the touch back is lock and unlock.
I updated my rom, no go. I cleared cache and dalvik, no go.
Any ideas? :silly: thanks
I went to developer tools and enabled the option that lets me see the touches...
it seems when my phone stops doing the touches, its because there are like 8 different locations on the screen that are being "touched".
I messed something up obviously... but it seems to go away when the touches are reinitialized...
Is there an app out there that will automatically refresh the touches automatically? That would fix my issues...
I just now found out how to replicate the issue on command!
If i press down hard on the screen, it stops responding to my touch commands.
at least now i know how NOT to get stuck... just have to hold it gently
I think the reason was because i didn't put enough glue on the glass screen, thus its too close to the digitizer... and when i touch too hard the glass touches the digitizer and causes it to go all outta whack. mebbe...
i'ma put more glue on it and find out though.
thanks for all of your help so far though, you guys have been a great audience.
I did the exact same thing and have the same results. If I don't press too hard it works. Any solution would be nice
Hello Community,
My Uncle dropped his phone yesterday into a small puddle, Initially the screen would power on and work perfectly except the screen would not respond to any touches, after leaving it in rice over night and all day the screen is now responding to touch(I have even done tests drawing perfect lines and swype keyboard works perfect) But every couple of minutes the phone starts opening radom apps and the touchscreen starts freaking out(I enabled the Show touches option in the developer menu and you can see the touches flying all across the screen)
Please let me know if anybody has seen this before or this a problem with the digitizer from the Fall VS Water damage Thanks
Hi everyone,
Any help here is appreciated.. I have a moto 360 v2, had it for about 5 months and gave up on it a few months back because it was so laggy and glitchy.
Got it out again a week ago, thinking maybe new updates or whatnot would get it up to speed, and having the same results.
The watch was unresponsive 80% of the time, and spent most of its time flipping in between awake and dimmed, so I turned off AOD as suggested in other posts (although it should have been fixed as I am on the recent firmware?). I also turned off the "lift wrist" wakeup gesture. Now if I touch the screen or press the side button, it usually turns the screen on and then instantly back off. If I can get it to stay on I can open notifications about 50% of the time, the other 50% the screen is unresponsive. Lastly, if the side button opens the apps its a miracle, and I can scroll through the apps briefly before becoming unresponsive.
I've tried factory reset and the above two fixes.
I just tried recovery mode, but the screen doesnt work in recovery mode so I can't swipe between options..
I have emailed Motorola but haven't heard back yet.
I'd love for this device to work well, as it seems like a great device, but its basically unusable atm.
Any help/suggestions would be great!
Thanks
I recently got this phone from my ant. It is a used phone and I replaced the charge connector because it wasn't working.
Firstly I thought it was the Glass Screen Protector which I recently installed in the phone. However, when I reboot the phone it becomes normal again. It already happened two times. I was playing Clash Royale and I saw sometimes my cards were not selected after to touch them. I literally had to touch it hardly to work. The same happens in the home screen. It is not smooth to scroll or swip the screens.
Any ideas what could be the causes of this? An app? The Glass Screen Protector?
Thanks in advance.
It started with it being hard to press 1,q etc keys on keyboard. When I enter developer settings and enable pointer location ,I realise it doesn't register at least hundred pixels on entire left and right sides of screen. Quite annoying. My gf phone is slowly going that way also.. any ideas apart from replace screen or phone? Also around entire edges of phone it looks like screen is delaminating,i.e. a lines and checkers pattern shows....
I have the same problem. It started with a crack, when the phone was bent too much (see picture).
But the unresponsive left edge started later, after I had fixed the phone in a car cradle. Probably the cradle held the phone too hard.
I noticed it because I was using gesture navigation and I couldn't use the back gesture when swiping from the left side. The right side still works in general, but in some apps I have a problem on the top right edge with the 3 button menu button.
You can check your touchscreen in the hardware test menu (*#*#6484#*#*) with test 8 Touchpanel edge.
Also test 7 ITO fails for my device.
Sorry, I have no advice for your problem.
My personal solution for this problem is: I will dump this device, which had hardware problems right from the start (like bluetooth disturbing WLAN) and lots of software bugs, which Xiaomi is not willing to fix. Instead a Pixel 4a will be my daily driver in a few weeks.
My problems also started after bending the entire phone.. was looking at replacement lcd and frames but in reviews they seem to not have proximity sensor..maybe just get a new phone and have this as backup..
