Hi all,
It seems to me that the edge of the lcd screen is not responsive (both left and right) at times when I put it inside a leather case(similar to theM1 case). If I take it out of the case, it's very responsive.
Does anyone notice the same problem?
Thanks.
I've brought that up before. Out of the case the screen is very responsive all over. In a case it's much less responsive around the edges. If you use the screen calibration apk it helps a little, and I find you get a better response around the edges using your thumb than pointer.
I don't know of any real solution, or what causes it.

glad to know i am not the only one with the problem.
My guess is that the case must touch the tablet somewhere that confuses the touch sensor.
mine did this for a little while and then just went away. the calibration didn't help and reloading the ROM didn't either.

Can you try to remember what you could have done to make it go away? Changed or modified the case in anyway?
It's so annoying.
It seems as if the G-Tablet's touch sensor is EXTREMELY sensitive. It even detected my headphone wire touching it. I knew this because when I would touch it at the same time the wire was on it, it would start spazzing out. Remove the wire, effect gone. Be happy that this thing is ultrasensitive. Could be worse, could be a resistive touchscreen.
its not possible it is a capcitative touch screen. I am experiencing the same problem I think it has do with part of our finger is on the case and not on the screen. If i press on it and roll it side to side a bit it will pick up my touch
I have found that using live wallpapers reduces the responsiveness of the touch screen especially around the edges.
Base on my experience with these device in the past, all the live wallpaper does is eat up your cpu horsepower. You want your device to operate at its optimum, yes? Just use a regular wallpaper. Kill all non-essential tasks.
Unfortunately I don't have any productive advice but I can tell you that I bought the p4 case off of steve (great website fast shipping) and a capacitive stylus. Like you described it was totally unresponsive toward the edges. I tried the calibration app and no significant success. After a couple of days use it started registering the touches consistently.

hi everyone,
i just got my Touch Pro, but i noticed that the flushed screen, on the right hand side, isn't mended well to the frame, where i could slightly see light from the screen coming out, especially in the room where it's dark
does anyone else experience this? it's just slightly and visible only in a dark room where there's no light except your Touch Pro. just worried someday, it may just collect all the dusts and let them in, going under the screen.
Yes, mine has that as well. I was a bit disappointed, but I'm hoping it's not a major issue, though using the case and a screen protector might help a bit.
For now, I use a piece of scotch tape (inserted thin-side into the crevices) to pull out any dust from time to time.
oh well, they should have done better on controlling, i didn't find it such issue on my diamond, well it's a different screen implementation after all, but the latter was better IMO
Well, overall, I think the build quality of the Touch Pro is wonderfull! I love that its slightly heavy too!
But the keyboard slideoutmechanism, although very solid and robust gives away a worrying noise, sorta like its scraping against something. Anyone managed to confirm if this is nothing to worry about? I feel like I damage the device each time I pull it out.. lol
Regards
According to me that's the LCD flatcable cover sliding into place. With the device opened you'll find a little latch of sorts at the top of the screen back, that slides shut when opened and opens up to give the LCD flatcable some room to roll itself up in.
Nothing to worry about then!
Can anyone else press the screen semi hard with one finger and distort the LCD screen too?
I know it is not normal for anyone to be pressing that hard, but I just want to make sure I do not have a defect before my 14 days return window closes.
Thanks
ive done it before and that happens. It seems to have the same effect on all lcd/led screens with a bit of pressure. IMHO totally normal.

Thanks for the response. I know LCD screens do that, I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't an issue with the glass flexing and pushing on the LCD screen.
So if yours is doing it, then I'm OK with mine doing it too. It's not like we are going to be pressing that hard anyway.
Thanks!
You do know the L in LCD means liquid? If you press hard on any LCD screen this will happen. you are displacing the liquid under the screen. You aren't hurting anything. It corrects itelf in a matter of seconds.
The xoom has a really thin glass panel, this is most likely the reason you can distort the liquid easily
How this distortion looks? It could help discern what type of LCD Xoom is using. (for example pressing my PVA screen show a dark smudge)
angry birds causes me to do this now and then!
I get white smudges. I thought that Gorilla glass would have less flex.
Does it look like this?
I returned mine, as the first one I have doesn't exhibit this. Yes, if you press if really hard, any LCD would show this, but this is barely a tap. I'm using my Wacom stylus here, but it's the same with just my finger. It's actually worst in person, but you can clearly see it happening on the video. And it's only on the right hand side of the screen also, so it's definitely a defect. On mine anyway.

Actually, if you look it up on youtube, there are some videos showing how tough it is that also show how surprisingly flexible it is. It's pretty impressive stuff.

Yeah...mine is mostly on the right side into the center. Center to the left, it gets really hard to do it.
it's easier on the right side than the left on mine too but i still kinda have to push a bit. if you push in on the back panel on the right side it does it too.
It may be dirty or greasy, but I still do not think that is the main problem...
I feel like whatever "coating," if any exists, has worn out. My screen has gotten to the point where it is kind of irritating. Also, when the screen is black, but still lit up, there are parts that are darker than others. I have also noticed my screen being less responsive in some areas...having to use force...It also seems to be in areas that I touch the most. Then again, I would notice it more when those areas are unresponsive, so I can't be certain (seems likely).
I never bought a screen protector because I don't scratch my screen. I shouldn't need to buy a screen protector to protect from INTENDED USE on a 600$ (or whatever) product, so that kind of advice isn't very useful. And it seems that even if I did apply a screen protector at this point, it wouldn't work.
If I gotta buy a new screen...unbelievable...
Anyone else have a similar problem? Am I just not cleaning it well enough?
Thanks
Hi all,
Two brand new Google-sealed 6a phones just bought from amazon exhibiting the same problem.
The problem is that the phone/screen, sometimes fails to recognize touch inputs, especially at the edges. I just made a screen recording with the "show touches on screen" option enabled for clarity.
Please check the video I've just recorded, here.
As you can see, while I'm repeatedly touching the bottom left screen corner (still well inside the "touch" area), sometimes the phone stops registering the touch(es) for a second or so (sometimes less, sometimes more).
This happens with factory reset phones (two), no apps whatsoever, on A12/A13/QPR1.
If this is a HW problem with my phone, I'll return it and try another one as I really like it (but "can't live" with this problem as it affects usage - especially when using three-button navigation).
Could someone please make a quick test (recording), try to repro this and let me know the outcome?
Thanks a lot!
do you have any protective case or protective glass on the phone?
I've noticed that, after adding case and glass, sometimes touch seems less sensitive near the corners, in my case especially the bottom right one.
Try enabling "Increase Touch Sensitivity" under Settings > Display and check if it does any good.

Same over here, less sensitivity in the corners. I'm on latest October Android 13 version, using Spigen tempered glass screen protector and "Increase Touch Sensitivity" activated
There is a post on Pixel subreddit about this issue, many user are experiencing this issue, both on Android 13 and 12.
oh, wow. same here.
(and all the time i thought it was "just me" (or rather my device), but not worth investigating further (as in, trying to get a replacement, as it’s not THAT often). in a way that’s a relief to hear that apparently i’m not the only one then.)
Same issue. Not all the time, but happens noticeably often every day. No cases or screen protectors yet.
Sometimes my inputs don't register even when they're about a centimeter from the edge of the display. Weird stuff.
Gonna try to enable increased touch sensitivity, see if that does any good.
I don't use any case or screen protector (increasing sensitivity doesn't help).
bought a 3rd unit, this time from Amazon.de (the other two came from Amazon.de) and the problem is still there. This being said, I find it hard to believe this isn't affecting all 6as. Returned the 3rd one... Ridiculous.
