[Q] Burn in screen - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm just curious if anyone from this forum experienced burned in screen in normal usage of the phone. I got this phone without knowing the issue, I found out of it after I bought the device. I like to have navigation bar enabled but I'm afraid it will eventually stuck on the screen... So anyone had this in normal usage? Thanks

Touch Screen Problem

Hi All,
I am using an IMATE Pocket PC 2003 since the last 6-8 months. Over the last few weeks I am facing a problem with the Touch Screen. ALl of a sudden the Touch Screen fails to respond although the buttons are still working.
Sometimes after several reboots, the Touch Screen responds sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes I just keep it IDLE for 2-3 Hours and the Touch Screen starts responding. There is no fixed time of the error also the error is random. Sometimes everything is normal for one week and there is no problem at all. Sometimes the problem persists continously.
I have Hard Resetted it atleast 4 times but the status still remains the same.
If anybody has experienced this, do share your thoughts.
Regards
Jinesh
I read somewhere that if you re-align your screen it may help.
Do your hardware buttons still work? You could try mapping tpenable.exe to a hardware button and select this when the screen locks up.
Touch screen problem
Jinesh,
did you ever manage to fix this?? This is exactly the problem I've been having on my MDA Compact (Magician) for ages: screen unresponsive, buttons still working. I started a thread on this topic as well and got some suggestions, but never managed to sort it out. I'm a bit wary to resort to flashing a new ROM or something like that since it seems to open up a whole new set of potential problems and will cost me my warranty with T-Mobile at the least (Not that they're much help, but still)...
Thanx,
Joost
Maybe the cover
The Qtek9090-screen is sometimes locked (e.g. when it's in a car holder which causes too much pressure on both sides of the display.) The same happens sometimes without any cause - pressing on both sides unlocks the screen.
Hi,
I am using an O2 Mini now and have sold off that Imate. But what I came to know that the touch screen problem was due to the irregularities in the network. The screen stops responding fast when network is weak and the device keeps on searching the network.
I have faced this problem once or twice in my O2 mini also.
Regards
Jinesh, I don't know if you checked out my thread on this, but indeed this is the conclusion I've reached: bad network causes the unresponsive screen. I think it might have something to do with the priority windows gives to the screen routine compared to (searching for) network. As of yet I have been unable to find a way to increase priority for the screen or lower it for network, though I browsed through the registry pretty extensively. Suggestions from anyone on this would be most welcome.

[Q] Unresponsive screen replacement phone

I recently had to replace my Evo and when I go to replace my phone I see they take it out of a replacement box. I always hated liked the idea of a refurbished phone but I was desperate and hey if it works then what the hell. Its been 2 weeks and I've noticed problems with the screen response and sometimes losing control of it. for example i could be on Facebook and it will just start scrolling up and down rapidly I also have trouble moving from screen to screen having to make a slow full swipe or it wont work this also occurs unlocking the screen.A more common issue is when typing in portrait "i" and "n" don't work and I'm forced to switch to landscape. Although this happens frequently there is no way i can prove this to a Sprint store considering this happens randomly. Could i still ask for a replacement and what are chances i can get a NEW phone? Also is this a problem with the screen or one that can be solved?
Thank you in advance
I noticed times like that, also when I swyped it showed a very jagged line and wouldn't put the correct word down, I found that during those times I had it plugged into the charger, unplugged and it works fine, how to fix? I dunno, is yours caused by the charger too?
I've noticed my lockscreen issue is caused when charging and as for the keyboard no it happens randomly
I'd take it in, and try do perform actions and have it messed up. You can still express your disdain for the replacement.

[Q] My GS3 is going haywire and it's probably a hardware issue.

I am wondering if anyone ever encountered these kind of problems,
First of all i've been running cm10.2rc for the past month or so and was having no problem whatsoever. Then out of the blue last night, my screen started flicking on and off, then it'd reboot off for no reason. It goes into apps of widget for no apparent reason either. Even in recovery mode (recovery touch) it clicks options without me touching anything.
I've flashed a dirty/clean, Cm11 (don't like it came back to cm10).
It's as if my power button gets stuck.
I'm wondering if this is a common hardware issue that i could solve by changing a part myself off ebay or any kind of solution for this insane phone?
Thanks

Stock Tab 3 - Screen Flickers

I just recently got a T217S from Sprint, had it about 2 weeks, running all stock, 4.42 Android. Ran fine the first week, then I noticed that the screen would start to flicker. Doesn't change colors, just flickers. Playing with the brightness can sometimes cause it to stop temporarily, but it starts again almost immediately. The level of brightness doesn't make a difference, neither does any applications I'm running. I've rebooted it into safe mode and without even touching it, it started flickering less than 30 seconds after booting. I've google the heck out of this and it doesn't seem to be a hardware issue, but an Android problem. I would like to avoid a factor reset if I can, especially until I get solid proof that it would FIX the problem. So far, no one can even tell me WHY it's doing it.
HELP???

my pixel c gone mad

Hi all,
I've recently got this tablet from Google store (and out of stock now).
After installed all things needed, a serious problem has appeared during in use. Its screen unexpectly trembles, pops notification out, runs and closes apps randomly then unable touchscreen at all. These make me crazy even in screen saver, and power button doesn't work sometimes to stop those happenings.
The device hasn't rooted and staying as 'pure' with only afew apps, so I've done erasing system cache partition on recovery mode and factory reset twice to solve this problem.
Nothing happened so far since reset the device but is still unsettling.. and now I just supposed touching screen badly (with sweaty fingers for example) or the screen protect film I affixed since unboxing might cause the problem.
Does anyone faces a problem like this?
Regards,
Allen
If it was greasy fingers my tablet would be completely unusable. Luckily a quick clean sorts any issues that causes.
My first suspicion would be the screen protector, as mine has done similar when there was something touching the screen. Maybe try taking it off and seeing how it goes? You can also turn on show taps in the Developer Options to be able to see what touches the tablet is detecting when it goes mad.
Better than before

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks for your reply. Now I've used a BT mouse to match with mine and less touch on the screen apparently. Nothing happened so far.
It's not a problem of hardware I supposed and pretty sure that the screen protector interferes a certain touch as you commented. Still my eyes are keeping on what caused the problem.
