Everyone is having problems with their touch screens. There's several threads about it already. There are some suggestions for fixing it, but they don't work for everyone. Look around the forums for the other threads, they aren't hard to find.
This is the internet, we're all rude here.

i had 2 different lg g4 (open EU) and none of the units had a single touch screen problem. so it looks like you are wrong.

It's a weird problem that shows up differently for many people. My phone works well except for tap to wake, which worked great when new, but is getting worse.
Have you tried different chargers and had the same touch screen problems? See below, I think some problems are related to heat

I suspect your model has less problems in this area because it isn't loaded with carrier bloatware.
I think some of the problems are related to heat. It seems the top of the phone gets very hot, especially on US carriers because of background bloatware, T-Mobile in particular. The screen and camera start to work poorly.
I blocked 95 pre installed packages on my AT&T variant using Debloater and the phone works great except for tap to wake. Sometimes I just have to beat the phone to wake it up.
Do you ever have to double tap or enter the knock code more than once to wake your EU variant?

Dumb little hack to get extra apps

So I've noticed some apps say they are not compatible with the note edge on the play store.
In case anyone was not aware of you goto build.prop and change your device from tbltespr (where spr is your variant) to trltespr you get more games as the play store thinks you are a regular note 4.
The lines will be:
ro.product.name=tbltespr
ro.product.device=tbltespr
r o.build.product=tbltespr
To
ro.product.name=trltespr
ro.product.device=trltespr
r o.build.product=trltespr
I have a Note 4 & Note Edge and I didn't think of this... Great find... Thank you...
Will this also work on T-Mo? I'll give it a go to see if it works. Thanks for your help.
Like what apps does the note 4 allow that the Note Edge does not?

Only reason I did not post there was is such a small dumb trick, figured that would be for things that do something 'more' lol.

Right now the thread has one build prop mod that crashes the camera. Anything is fine haha
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic has major scaling issues on the Note Edge. It is either too big for the screen, or with gltools adjustments, too small. No way I've found yet to make it scale to the screen correctly, unless theres something like a .ini file saved to the device that you can adjust display size.
It's one of my favorite games of all time.

Yea, just noticed this. I never played it before today, just loaded it up. Odd that it is not working as the screen is equal to the more 4 (pixel wise) anyway.

About to catch fire?

So I have 2 units of the Note 7. One is working perfectly. The 2nd unit not so much. Looks like something is seriously wrong with the battery of this device. Has anyone else faced this? I cant return my Note 7 because I got it from UAE and I donnt live there. Is this what happens before it catches fire? Video here

To be fair, anyone can recreate this by making a video with an atrocious sound, have 2 green lines on each side, and then keep the backlit buttons on.
That video shows nothing in regards to a faulty battery.
ISIS will now start buying the note 7 and use them as grenades so that they can smuggle them in commercial airlines

Should make a video of how it reacts when you unplug?
Wow wait a minute, you aren't even charging.

can you tell me how to make 2 green lines appear on each side?
it looks like the phone motherboard/circuit board is burning to cause that.
Wow. This brings to mind another SERIOUS problem I have just remembered.
How many of us have had "problems" with any of our Phones in the past and they have locked up and wouldn't shut down even with the Power Button with the ONLY option was to remove the Battery??
I have certainly experienced this scenario a few times over the years with my Note 4 and 2 and S2.
In fact, I set up a new thread regarding this. Needs to be discussed.
my previous samsung, i think note5, cant remember which model exactly.
in the summer when i charging the phone in the car, the phone gets really hot, but it never catch fire or explode.

there are apps that make the device do this when getting notifications. looks to me like its a poorly coded app, or one meant for older edge screen device. there is even a setting in stock touchwiz for edges to light up upon notifications.
that said, the device could very well be overheated

"Set the Edge screen to light up when you receive calls or notifications while the device is turned over".

Three PAYG UK

Has anyone actually managed to order the phone from Three for pay as you go? I've tried over 20 times but it just fails at the payment screen used my partner's card too and the same thing happens.
Why would you do that when you can buy direct from razor? Though admittedly right now all you can do is sign up for a notification email.
I successfully pay for the pre-order of the phone in 3‘s website, so I think there is no problem with the website. Maybe you should use another devices to finish the payment.

Tried that still won't go through
I had exactly the same problem as you, tried around 30 times with different cards, addresses, people.
Eventually got a buddy to try for me with all his details and it went through fine. Pain in the ass, three don't let you pay that much over the phone too so no point in you trying to contact their customer services.
In store they are only taking pre-orders for people doing contracts so a waste of time there too.
Get someone else to try.
Is the phone on display yet on Three to view? also will there be roms on this device? as really thinking of selling the op5 to buy this.

My local store didn't have it on display but when asked they had one behind the counter and I had a go on that for around 15 mins. I personally love it.
I have just spoken to the customer service and they said that the reason for not going through is that anything pay as you go has to be under £100. Sounds ridiculous to be honest.

after all this crap I will never ever have a Three sim card the CS is the biggest load of balls
its on display at the three store in enfield town. its very cold to touch and quote boxy/clunky with big bezels, think of a sony xperia in cold metal rather than glass. ordinarily i would move on but for some reason I LOVE THIS ALOMST RETRO DESIGN. i must say the display isnt as bright as the s8 or my OP5 on the demo unit...

when i restarted the phone at three it displayed the three symbol on boot-up, looks like the firmware on the device is three specific. this could make it like Samsung where stock firmware won't allow for volte and wifi calling etc. if it does have operator firmware on it via three, i hope it gets updated as quickly as stock firmware ...
lets see when released ...

Gotcha. They say it is unlocked. The splash screen will unfortunately there, however, the bootloader will be unlockable so I don't see why we won't be able to flash the stock fw on it.

No i couldn't find one, no scratches tho, not even tiny ones
But I'd suggest those thin plastic ones, glass protectors usually have that halo effect

reputable sim unlock site

I currently have boost mobile and I'm wanting to switch carriers but boost is refusing to unlock my sim card. They say I don't meet the requirements yet I bought this phone from them and have had service on it for well over a year. Their excuse is that since I changed my phone number, it hasn't been a year. I saw a few websites offering to unlock it but I need to know a reputable one. Android sim unlock dot com has one of the lowest prices. Any input would be great. TIA.
this reply will likely get deleted, but www.idoneapps.com is 100% legit. ive unlocked 4 phones thru them. NoDial is the mod over there and he is as legit as they come. They also have a smaller forum over there too and are quite helpful

no idea man. motos always have been a headache for me. best thing to do is find a paid unlock site and pay for it with a CC so you can dispute the charge if they stiff ya. sim unlocks are rarely free and its usually when an employee goes rogue just before they quit/get fired LOL im betting that these unlocks are done by employees with a side hustle
