[Q] Screen Issues: Static Screen Vertical Lines Right Before Lock Screen

When I wake the phone, seconds right before the lock screen I notice a type of static screen with vertical lines.
It is more apparent when trying to wake the phone in dark settings or a dark room.
Stock Phone, No Modifications.
Is this normal? Has anyone else noticed this on their Epic 4G Touch? I just got the phone 3 days ago and am wondering if its a hardware issue and if I should return it. Any help is appreciated.
Attached is a picture that resembles the pattern.
I've never noticed it. I even tried to re-create the issue and I couldn't. I am also running the stock firmware (EG30) and I am not rooted.
Thanks for the help... I'm not taking any chances. Called to get a replacement.

[Q] Please help. Touch wire gone bad...

Searched google, found a few people having the same (or very similar) problem, but found no actual answer.
So one of my touch wires on the screen gone bad>>> [I have "Show touches" enabled, so I can see how my phone randomly starts pushing like 10 times per second in a few spots on my screen, all of them ar one the same horizontal coordinates, noticed like 5-10 pixels that are being pressed all the time.]
So my main question is, can I somehow disable touch on those pixels or atleast the whole line across the screen? I just want to live with this phone for a few more months because I'm already planning on buying a new one.

Screen flicker test

Hello. Since getting my new HTC M8 the other day I noticed that the screen can flicker for a fraction of a second when in the setting menu.
The issue really comes to light when you use a screen filter, I use the app that is literally called screen filter. If you set the app to about 20% and then you go into the settings menu you start seeing microsecond white flashes when backing out of and entering new menus.
Does anyone else experience screen flicker on there M8. I like to know if its my phone thats the problem or the screen filter app. If someone wouldnt mind testing my steps above out, it also helps if you have the screen filter on in a dark room as the flashes become even more pronounced.
Thanks

Quick screen 'taps' register as 'drags' after screen replacement

Hi everyone.
I have recently had my screen replaced. After playing around, i quickly noticed that my keyboard screws up when i start typing.
The faster i type, the worse the problem is.
I checked touch response times and achieves normal times of about 60ms, however, i turned on touch overlay in developer settings and noticed that if i touch opposite sides of the screen quickly (to simulate typing), it would draw lines between the touches as if i was dragging between the two points.
This is what causes my keyboard to do funky stuff and heavily lag when typing fast.
Please note that this never happened before the screen replacement, and a hard reset didnt fix the problem.
Is there any software fix for this, or do i need another screen?
thanks.

I mainly work on iPhones, but it sounds like your digitizer is out of calibration. Don't know if there's a software fix for it, but hopefully this will point you in the right direction. Also I'd take it back to the place you had it repaired and see if they can fix if it's still warrantied.
