[Q] Am I the only one experiencing this? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys I have had my transformer for almost a year now and since the first time I opened it, I am experiencing my tf101's touch screen not responding. Sometimes even if I'm not pressing anything, my transformer would act as if there are multiple touches on the screen? I would have to turn the screen off and back on I'm just curious if everyone is experiencing this, or should I have my tf101 serviced.

I don't know if it's hardware or software, if you havn't factory reset in a long time you could try that. If that doesn't fix then you may have to get serviced.. Never had a problem with my screen. (but I wipe almost every week and flash roms/kernels constantly xP)

Have you tried this? Hope it helps.

Touchscreen not responding

Hi!
I have my transformer for 2 days now. everything worked fine until now: I woke up today, wanted to use my transformer, but the touchscreen does not respond anymore. I turned the Transformer off/on multiple times but it didnt help. then i updated to 3.1, didnt help neither.
The dock is still working and the screen (android) responds to turning of the tablet.
does anyone else have such a problem? how can I fix it? It's really annoying and I dont want to do a hard reset.

Had the same issue. Finally returned it and now seek a replacement.
I had this issue. I had to drain the battery all the way down to 0% then charge it back up. Now everything is working perfect.

I had unresponsive touchscreen several times when I had a few drops of water on it. I wiped it extensively several times and it worked again.

I'll give it a try, hope it will help.
Fully draining the battery helped, thanks a lot! I hope it will last...
I had the same issue once... I undocked the TF and turned it off by long pressing the power button..left it alone for 10 min and turned it on...the touch screen magically works again..
haven't happened since 3.1 update though..
Any solution for this annoying issue? My asus, by the way, brand new just lost touchscreen.. damn!
Please, anyone got to figure why it is happen or a solution?

Nexus S Stuttering

Hey Everyone,
I am having some issues with my Nexus S (GSM). This does not happen on the stock rom but it seems to happen on any rom I flash and it becomes very annoying. The phone would be operating normally and out of nowhere it stutters and becomes extremely slow for about 5-10 seconds after it which it vibrates twice and back to normal again. I have also noticed that if the phone is idle it almost always goes through the slow process once I start it up.
If I increase the cpu to 1.2 ghz or higher the problem seems to appear more often.
I am hoping someone will help me fix it because the problem is extremely annoying when it happens during voice calls as it cuts out and the other person cannot hear me. If not I guess I will have to sell it.
Anyone have any solutions or has the same issues?
I think I had the same problem from time to time, but only when I was using a case on my phone.
I would unlock the screen and the device would be super slow for a few seconds, then I'd get a couple of quick vibrations and it would be back to normal.
My guess was that the case was pressing one of the buttons in (maybe volume?) while unlocking and it somehow caused the retardation.
I haven't seen that problem since removing the case -- though maybe it was a coincidence and I'm using a different rom that fixed it? Not sure.
In any event I'm using NSCollab 1.0.39 if you want to give it a try.
Are u doing fresh installs when u switch between roms

I already have tried and still no success. Usually when i restart the phone it fixes it temporarily but it comes back after some time.
I wipe the data, cache and dalvik cache every time I flash a new rom. So yes it is a fresh install...

Nexus S randomly initiates Google Search

I have a stock unrooted i9020A running the Jelly Bean 4.1.1 OTA. I did a factory reset after the OTA came in and reinstalled everything from scratch.
Once or twice per day, the phone will just initiate Google Search (as if I had pressed the little magnifying glass capacitive button) and will repeatedly try to enter Google search even as I am repeatedly hitting the back button to exit Google search. The magnifying glass capacitive button will sometimes blink as this is happening.
It happens when I am using the phone, but I am 100% certain I have not come anywhere close to touching the magnifying glass button, so I know I am not causing it to do this.
It's pretty annoying because the phone basically becomes unusable for 30-60 seconds as it repeatedly attempts to enter Google search and I am fighting with it not to.
Anybody else experience this or have any suggestions?
Thanks.
This has happened to me! On my first NS, my back button would press itself, but it would flash as if I were pressing it. Unfortunately, I never found a solution as a few days later, the screen died, and I got my whole phone replaced as it was still under warranty.

Hmm thanks for the info. Guess I might have to return it.

No problem, also keep in mind the capacitive buttons work with heat (I think), this may have something to do with the problem. But as I said, I'm not really sure. Good luck

I've been running into this problem as well recently and from the looks of things people experienced this way back to the gingerbread days. I've checked Google forums and people were plagued with this search firing on its own. It is reported by some that when the 3G is low it opens on its own and I can attest to that, that it is happening to me when my 3G it's low.
I had this problem a long time ago and I fixed it by flashing a different radio.
The one that worked for me was UCKF1-GRK39F (this is for my device i9020a). If you plan to change your radio, make sure you flash the correct one for your device.
I have this problem. Radios, ROMs, Kernels, nothing seems to cause or fix it. One thing I would do is lock it then wipe the screen entirely (thinking maybe my finger grease is causing it).. Come to think of it, I've also always had a screen protector on it as well, so that might have something to do with it.
The best solution I've found for mine is to disable the Search button in CM10.

[Q] Random Touches

Hi Everyone,
I seem to have random clicks on my screen every couple of minutes. I sent my tablet to ASUS for repair and got it back today, hoping the problem would be solved, however it seems that the problem still exists.
This problem gets annoying when watching a video on YouTube or any video player. Plus when using the on screen keyboard, sometime random letters will be pressed.
I would like to know, is there any way I can fix this and is anyone else having a problem similar to mine?
From what I've read, the majority of Infinity devices have this issue. It has to do with the adhesive used to secure the screen. My device has this problem as well but I've learned to ignore it because the click is barely audible and does not affect anything else on or in my Infinity.

I had this problem on my first unit to the point of making the tablet unusable. It was opening random apps and pressing random keys non-stop. I wasn't aware that this was a wide-spread problem.

I know, but sometime its just annoying. I sent it back to ASUS, hoping they might do something about it. Its worse when I browser the play store. Cause it will never let me read app details, youtube video might open, images or sometimes app permissions. Plus this issue is only happening on the right half of my screen.

I think Joe miss read the OPs question. Joe I believe was talking about when you press down on the bezel how it will creek and click which seems to affect quite a few xda members.
I for one have yet to experience random apps opening/tablet being posesed. What has been done other then rma? I woukd suggest the op apply a factory reset an start feom scratch.

Factory reset has been done like 3 times. ASUS says, it might be a problem with the digitizer. Hence had to RMA again. During the first RMA, all they did was a factory reset and my tablet was away for 3 weeks (what a waste of time).

[Q] Touchscreen problem

Hi everyone! I have been having a problem with my tf700. It randomly registers touches in the middle part of the right end of the screen. Sometimes it registers one continuous touch, a lot of small touches, or sometimes it works fine. I am currently unlocked and running CromiX 4.4 but this problem started like two months ago after i unlocked the device. The "phantom touches" are annoying to the point of making the device unusable randomly as they mess with whatever i am doing with the tablet. If i put it to sleep and then wake it up the problem desapears for a short while (or for a random interval for that matter).
I wanted to know if there is a way to disable just one section of the touch screen, so these touches dont affect me. Has anyone else had a problem like this?
Try and search the forum. One other guy recently mentioned this issue and had to send it back to ASUS. must be a hardware defect

Thanks, yeah it seems to be a hardware problem. I didn't want to get to ASUS because they will probably charge me a full new touchscreen or something like that, so i thought that maybe there was a way via software to disable just the little section that gives problem in the screen.
Sound like an issue that needs fixing rather than a work around if you haven't dropped it I think it would come up as a defect. So maybe wouldnt need to pay

I will take it to ASUS then. I have not dropped it but my warranty was voided when i unlocked it, so i will have to pay. I live in russia right now, but bought the tablet in the states, hope that is not a problem. Thanks for you help.
Just to be sure, I'd try and reflash an old version of CROMI (3.4.7) -- if the problem goes away, it is a funky incompatibility. If not, you have a hardware issue, but that should fall under warranty.
