Unresponsive Touch Screen & Case "clicking" sound

Well, I didn't wanted to create two threads so I merged my two questions into a single thread instead.
1st, to my notice whilst playing games(tested on inotia 3, destinia), there are several occasions whereby the touch screen would not work(my character is not attacking so I know its not working) then after 2 - 4 seconds then it would work again.
Is there any solutions to this problem?
p/s: HTC Gestures is disabled btw.
2nd, I noticed a "clicking" sound when I press the bottom part of my One X. I am okay with the sound but will it lead to any possible defects in the future?

I get both these issues, the clicking is more noticeable when typing and is only happening in certain,areas

I had already done these from day 1, but its still happening(except that I enabled usb debugging).

most likely the clicking is causing the rattle sound from the camera
no reason to worry

the sound comes from the specific area(it happens at all sides of the phone) that I pressed so I think its not the camera?

none of this may help, but my brother put a screen protector over his GS II and it wasn't as responsive as mine was.
but touching the screen shouldn't make a clicking noise unless it's the game sounds. you are either pressing too hard or you need a new phone before the whole thing comes apart.

Mine wasn't on screen protector, still naked. I am touching the case of the phone(the sides, the exterior part) that produced the sound.
p/s: the 1st and 2nd are two different questions, not related at all

I've noticed my HOX screen becomes unresponsive quite often, usually I have to press the power button to knock the screen off, then press it again and unlock but 9 times out of 10 it goofs up the game I'm playing. Happens a lot on Angry Birds.
So much for this being HTC's flagship device, so far I've been nothing but disappointed with it and its ridiculous manufacturing faults (also suffering from flickering screen, crap signal etc.)

Yeah, and since my country's currency is not as high as USD, so the price of this phone is elevated by a bigger margin(so I need to fork out more money to buy it) so it kinda disappoints me though

but what I am more concerned is that,
1. Is there a fix for the unresponsive touch screen?
2. Do I need to go for an exchange for the case "clicking" sound?
p/s: I am on the OTA 1.2.8 Asia Region

1. Probably not until kernel source is released.
2. Yes, mine doesn't click at all.

For the 2nd one, for some weird reason, after I had pressed it for many times, the screen doesn't have that sound anymore

Now you mention it I remember seeing somewhere that the cases on some one x's weren't pushed in properly and the solution was to press down hard on a certain spot and it would click into place, that's probably what you just did. I will see if I can find the thread.

oh, there's only slight sound btw. And for a weird reason, after I pressed it, one side of the screen flex is gone, leaving the lower left hand side still intact.

yeah but probably you should still trade it in. No problem with responsiveness of touchscreen on any I had

Uhm, mine is absolutely not clicking and I don't have any touchscreen problem.
Perhaps it happens only on some applications?

Not really sure about that, since it occurs once in a while

Mine is ALWAYS unresponsive when plugged in, right pain in the arse. Likely software though hopefully they'll fix in next ota

Touch "flickering"

Hi!
I'm italian and I hope u understand me ...
I've a little problem regarding touch, I don't know if it is a bug or hardware issue.
So, when I scroll a page, (by Facebook app, Twitter app or simply Chrome) and I do not take off my finger, there is a little flickering (up and down).
I remember that this happened with my GS2 when it was in charge but in that case was normal.
This problem also happens to you ?
Thank you

Also happens to me while charging. It's a common problem with chargers which do not produce consistent power

In your opionion is it a software or hardware issue?

Seems to be a hardware issue to me. I constantly get it if I don't dry my hands properly after washing them and then touch the screen. (can't unlock my pattern on the screen lol)

Burn-in: does anyone have it yet? How paranoid should we be?

Has anyone noticed any burn-in problems yet? I've seen reports of the problem for some other watches (LG), but so far nothing specific here for the Huawei.
It's so far so good for me, but I've been extremely nervous about this issue. I avoid faces with things like thick tic marks or logos in ambient mode. I know about Wear's built-in "protection," but I don't have a lot of confidence in it. Am I being unreasonable?

I had the GWR and didn't have any issues with that at all. That said I turn the screen off at night during charging so maybe that helps. I'll keep an eye on the Huawei, but I'm hopeful that it will be fine.

I had the GWR for almost a year too. Always used watchfaces that are 'always on' (so no dimmed mode without background) and always had the charging animation on by night. Never experienced any burn-in.

I just powered mine on for the first time last night. I played with it for a few hours, then put it in the charger for the night and this morning it has burn-in!! How could it happen so fast??

it is very bad, sorry for that, were you using this watchface long time ago? what is the watch face look like in ambient mode? maybe the watch got really hot, and screen on while charging. i started to worry about the screen quality of this watch.
Edit:
i have seen this is your first day, i think maybe a faulty screen

Yeah, I'm wondering if your watch just froze in full display mode overnight.

That deserves an RMA and you deserve a new replacement watch.
I sometimes get lag on mine, im not sure if it's actual lag or whether im doing something wrong but as someone mentioned if the watch went full brightness and is charging then the heat might have done it?

I returned it yesterday to best buy. Lucky me though. . they had cyber Monday deals and it was on sale for $50 less! !

I noticed that when the minute hands on mine move (ie every minute) that the whole screen kind of does a refresh. I'm using a custom watch face called InstaWeather, and in the settings there's an option to help with screen burn. I wonder if this is it? So every minute, every pixel would have been off/on or on/off?

yes, this is an android wear burn in protection buy moving a few pixels in all directions, works very good if you don't have large objects in the ambient mode, and won't help much if you have.

In my opinion, yes, you are being overly worried. First the technologies itself has improved and we see less burn-in even when we set screens on to test such a thing. Second, the ability to move(write) a watch face or screen is not some huge leap, in fact it's really super easy to add to an OS to simply move the screen pin outs when in any long display mode. Beyond all that, app makers, watch face builders, now have the old data and make sure they write to avoid any long same display visual mode.
Easy to add to an app, when write same display, write 2 pixels, change.
Then after all that we have face on mode and ambient mode, which in my daily use changes my watch face enough that I would never get burn in. Agree that I am a heavy user of the watch, I tend to have to change twice a day. Perhaps someone that used the watch much less would have more of a concern?

I have the same problem

Wrong. You must not understand what screen burn in is. No new technology has come out that will stop screen burn in. The software that moves the pixels over only works if the object is 1 pixel wide other wise it doesn't work screen burn in will still happen. And they do not have it where the same pixels won't be used otherwise in ambient mode it would jump around not wiggle.

Reset the watch. It may not be burn in. I saw a bug like this from using too high Def of an image on a watch face. It got stuck in the cache even after I changed watch faces. I reset the watch and haven't had any issues since

Fare enough, just my opinion, & you have yours. Too bad you had to start by saying wrong.
Samsung has made changes to light output and color to reduce burn in, and we all know there is some type of display movement now to also reduce burn in, so it's odd you claim there has been nothing.
Anywho, I don't get burn in so yea, maybe with your attitude if you do, you deserve it?

I'm not going to start it by saying you're right, am I? Samsung didn't make changes to anything in light output the only thing that's changed is adaptive screen color which is meant to adapt the screen contrast to show what's on screen in the best possible colors. There is no new technology that will stop burn in. You must not have understood me. The image wiggle is a software attempt to stop screen burn in from happening but it won't stop it just slow it down. Screen burn in will continue to be a thing until the panels we use change technology. I didn't say that nothing has been made to prevent it.
And if you sense attitude in a straightforward response that's on you. I'll let karma deal with that comment. I personally don't get screen burn in and I've had a SAMOLED device since the Samsung Epic. I just understand how to prevent it. But just because I've never had it I won't tell people that they're overly concerned about screen burn in.

MTCB Joying Display flickering and "burned in" picture

Hey there,
I have some issues with the MTCB. Someone had these before?
First problem which is already quite annoying is that pictures are kind of burned in and still show shadows on the other screen
Second problem which is even more bad is that the display flickers. This is more or less obvious in different scenes.
When looking closely it seems like there is a grid (coming and going in the same frequence like the music is playing?). The attached video shows it.
Especially with white background the flickering gets very bad.
Don't know if this could be related to the Malaysk Firmware I use. Or is is it a hardware issue?
Also contacted the support. Let's see what they say...

This is commom in these units.
It's worst when it's hot.
I kinda fixed mine opening it and adjusting some kind of screw near the screen. You turn it and screen gets darker, you need to find a point between too dark and flickering. But when I park my car at the sun, and it gets hot inside, screen get bright again, so flickering and persistent images.

And here is a video about it.

It's commom. That's why Joying even put a video online to show how to fix it.
I believe that when they produce the unit, it's now well tuned up, or it's cold in the factory and they don't realize, so when someone who lives in a hot weather area install it, the problem appears.
It's a bad hardware design, they use analog potentiometer, they should use some digital and automatic one to regulate screen frequency.

Well, Like I said, I ve not heard much about it in the 3 years I ve been following the threads on here, but I do remember Joyous having problems with their screens and 5.1.1 - they couldnt get 5.1.1 to work on their 4.4.4 RK3188 units unless the screen was changed !! Sounds like its more a problem with Joyous units.

I agree there's not many complaints about this problem here, that's why I believe that may be some "quality check" sloppiness. It's very simple to solve anyway.
But all units seems to use analog potentiometer, so, bad design. There's nothing to do with Joying only and the fact they changed screen to update to 5.1.1.
And most users in this forum don't live in hot weather areas. In my case, Brazil, is hot must time of the year, above 34 C degrees (93 F), in the shade.

But feel welcome if you want to come to Brazil someday.
It's a bit messy but it's a good country. I'm not going to take you to meet any favela, by the way. Don't know why tourists are so eager to go in one, it's very dangerous, and I don't think they represent Brazil that much, so many different beatiful places to go.

I did not open the unit yet to check if the screw will improve. But I will test soon when I find some time.

Just open the unit and fix it, very easy.

Took some time until I tried the fix. But the screw fixed it.
Carjoy recommended a power filter, but since the screw fixed it i prefer this...
The screen is now slightly darker. But I like the crisp image and better saturation of the colors (and of course no flicker).
Thanks!

Samsung S20 screen problem - need urgent help

I am using Samsung S20. from a week or less than a week it started to show this issue of faint lines on the screen that moves. Horizontal, very faint, and blurry. I tried these fixes:
1. safe mode
2. factory reset
3. formatting cache partition
But nothing fixed the issue. can someone look into this and give a possible solution.
Sadly Samsung's service center in our is Udupi-576104 are so lethargic to respond to my emails or calls. It was closed and phone numbers are off and no response to emails. I am starting to wonder if it's a fake address or Samsung care failed to update their database.

Looks like its a display burn in to me. Its caused by high brightness and could be mitigated by turning on dark mode or so, Ive heard

Looks like its a display burn in to me. Its caused by high brightness and could be mitigated by turning on dark mode or so, Ive heard

They move. Not burn in.
Bad display or mobo.

ooh, that's crazy. in that case, Samsung should not price the phone so expensive. this is 'concealing and stealing' from the company.

Was the display ever overheated ie use or charging in direct sunlight while running hot and/or had a thermal shutdown?
This can fry displays, been there, done that
Try clearing the system cache

Oh well... i have never noticed a display heating issue. on the back, yes, overheating while video rendering, etc..
i tried these fixes but they didn't work..
1. safe mode
2. factory reset
3. formatting cache partition
is there a difference between factory reset from settings and recovery mode factory reset??

The only difference is with a reset from settings you don't need to deal with the damn FRP.
The only thing left to try is a reflash. I think it will prove a waste of time though.
This is a hardware issue... sorry.
Water presence/damage could do this.
You may get lucky and it will be a faulty ribbon cable or ground connection.
Looks like a blown driver though

That sucks. Any recourse with the seller?
If you used a card you could fill a complaint with them. You'll need to return the phone to do so.

Oh. Take it to a local repair center you trust. Get an estimate or at least once they are into it what the repair will be before they throw money at it.
If so get the battery replaced as well.
A used Note 10+ 512 gb in good condition can be had for around $650. Stick with Pie as Android goes straight downhill from there.
B&H Photo's prices are slightly higher but they back their stuff 100% and are fast.
Maybe an upgrade be a better plan... when in doubt, punch the f^^k out
