The display on my XZ since the November update is more sensitive than it was before. For instance when in playstore or YouTube, when swiping up it's like the phone will go to a video even though I didn't tap on it. Is it possible to adjust the overall sensitivity of the screen at all? Btw, I have done both a factory reset and via Xperia Companion too, but the issue still remains.
I have this issue also. It's definitely super sensitive. For example, I can use the touchscreen with thick gloves on. With my iPhone I can't do this.

What about the setting for using with gloves...is it turned off? Try turning it on, reboot, then turn it off, reboot. See if that helps.

Was anyone experiencing the display randomly turning on & won't dim itself off. I am using the fingerprint lock so it stays on the screen asking for the alternate password. This happens while charging & when idle. The phone stays on until you press the power button. I am testing if is something to do with the fingerprint lock, switching to pattern lock. any ideas?
I also use fingerprint unlock and have noticed that the display will randomly turn on and ask for the alternative password. I just got the phone this past Sunday (6/8) and all I've really done to it is add the fingerprint security.
what ROM are you running?

Stock ROM, no changes.
I've also seen this. Usually happens to me at night for some reason. Screen turns on and when I hit the side button to turn off the screen it goes out for a few seconds then lights up again. Have to reboot to fix it.
Mine does it during the day at work quite a bit, I think it is from the home button being pushed in my pocket. It really should be associated with the light/proximity sensor as to when the button will work.
Having the same problem with both swipe and fingerprint unlock. I can understand swipe, fingerprint works better in my pocket then with my finger
Mine is constantly turning on in my pocket now. I have an otterbox commuter on it and edges are raised pretty good, doesn't seem like my leg would hit the home button but it's hard to tell
Only happens to me when connectivity state changes, or music skips for a notification

I am having this problem on stock unrooted ND2 as well as RDDT. I also noticed on both that I get notification sounds with NO notifications showing up. So I have my notification sound going off a few times each hour for no reason unless I leave my phone on silent.
As far as the screen coming on randomly, I found that disabling air wake has helped a little bit. Especially overnight, I leave my phone next to my pillow (yea, I am a junkie...) and the screen would turn itself on every time I rolled over, and the screen would stay on after that until I woke up and turned it off. I know it was staying on because a couple of times I reached over the phone, screen turned on and I watched it for about 5 minutes (screen time out is set to 15 seconds) and it didn't shut off.
TL;DR Turn off air wake - Need help figuring out phantom notifications (still exist after multiple factory resets and almost no apps installed)
My issue stopped once I installed a glass screen saver. Home button is now countersunk with the 0.33 mm. Cover & review.

I installed the same one, lol. It still does it, not as often though
I was using standard pattern lock screen on stock rooted and had this issue. It was the wave to wakeup feature that was causing it. I turned it off and it went away. 3 days with no waking by itself.
I've never had that turned on.
looks like you guys turn on air wake and it's working sensetively. on the contrary, mine is numb

It was numb for me too when it wasn't being awakened by ghosts. The other guy said he didn't have that feature on so not sure what the other issue(s) is/are.

air wake is a nice feature to extend the lives of home & power button, except it always makes me look like an idiot when I am waving my palm over the phone again and again.
I tried to set the mode to unlock by fingerprint and keep air wake on for a whole day, but I didn't encounter that problem. maybe it just affects some devices, maybe it's not air wake.
Anybody found a real solution for this inconvenient?!
This only happens at Lollipop... 2 months ago I updated and because this annoying issue that was draining my battery I downgraded to Kit Kat...
Last weekend I decided to give another shot to Lollipop, but the issue remains...
I tried all settings relative to screen and lock screen and nothing worked!

I have the same problem. My battery has been life does not even last me until the end of work. Trying a fix now that I just thought of though. This problem is incredibly frustrating at night too.
I believe its the connection optimizer. Go to Settings > More networks > Mobile networks > Connections optimizer:
Then Uncheck "Connections Optimizer"
Seems to be working so far! So hopefully this helps the rest of you!
This Fix did not work still perplexed by this problem.
After rooting and removing a lot of bloat, I got rid of it. I have no idea which app it is though. Maybe an xposed module logging screen wakes could be of assistance. But I too noticed it immediately after flashing a lollipop ROM.
I have an issue with WiFi on my factory unlocked A9.
When on WiFi and using Flipboard, a lot of times the page will refuse to load with, "No connection, retry". I flick back and try again, and it works. If I turn off WiFi and use data, I never get that. But, about 50% of the time, I will get the "No connection, retry" notice but as soon as I flick back and try again, it works about 90% of the time. Sometimes, it will take 3 or 4 flicks back and forth. BUT, this never happens if I turn WiFi off. My WiFi is my home network and I'm sitting within 10 feet of the router, signal strength is not the issue.
Also, when watching a video that was linked inside Flipboard, my A9 will refuse to play the video in landscape mode, just keeps cycling between the play symbol and the pause symbol. But, if I leave the video in portrait mode, hit play, then after it starts playing turn the phone on its side for landscape, the video will keep playing without a problem. It will not play initially in landscape mode at all.
My A9 is completely stock factory unlocked version with the latest ota updates. Everything else about the phone works fine, with the exception of the above two issues. I get great battery life since the last ota update and am very happy overall with the phone.
Not happy about not being Gorilla Glass 4 and my glass is not flat. When you look at my screen at an angle against a light source, the screen is very wavy, I mean the worst I've ever seen on any of my phones. I do not feel anything so can't tell if this reflection is off the surface or below the surface. My old Galaxy S5 screen doing the exact same thing is flat as could be, no distortion at all but the A9 looks like the image is on acid or something, disconcerting.
Thanks for any help...
Hello,
I've received my XZ a few days ago from Germany via Amazon.it.
The build, after the updates, is 39.0.A.1.250.
I've a problem whit the double tap to wake up: whit this function in display settings on, when I try to wake up the screen whit my finger on the display I've to tap a lot of time and very faster to wake up the phone.
It's normal? With my old Z3C I was tapping just two times to see the display on.
Thanks.
Paolo, Italy.
I'm having the same issue. F8332 on .213
Same here, it works maybe 50% of the time. Sometimes have to tap faster, sometimes slower.
With my z3 and z5p, it works almost 100% of the time
here also, nordic combined .250
Hi guys. I am from Viet Nam. I bought a new XZ 2 weeks ago. I had a same problem of you. My double tap to wake is not work properly. (5/10 tap .....)
1 week ago, i go to Sony center and i made an "error report letter". Sony center accepted that this is factory's error. And luckily, i has just changed a new one...........
After changed, everythings looks good. My double tap is very well. (10/10 tap) And i dont sure it is Hardware or Software problem. In my country, many mate has the same problem too. Hope it is Software...... But Same XZ, same Software .... But some unit work good, some work fail...... (
This is my 2 videos after changed....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o013TrSN0ic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCOjL3lzr4Y
Same problem here.
But if I take XZ in my hand before double tap, then 100% success : it looks like a software problem, too much deep sleep, XZ is lazy !
Seriously, this should be corrected by a Sony update.
Got my new XZ today and I have the same problem. Double tap to wake takes repeated attempts before it will work. Most disappointing.
Works fine on mine, every time.

I've found that this problem only occurs when the screen has timed out by itself. If I press the power button to turn the screen off then the double-tap to wake feature works as intended. If the device is left alone and the screen powers off by itself then the double-tap to wake takes numerous attempts.
Similar problem
Man, very annoying, considering there's no always on feature or an alternative that permits me to read notifications without unlocking the phone.
I'm hopeful that this will be addressed in an upcoming update. Mine usually takes two to three tries of varying speeds.
Same issue
Same issue. Very annoying.

I would say mine works properly 8-9/10 times. Of the times it has failed, I have noticed it is more frequent when power saver mode is on. I have also noticed it tends to work better when I pick the phone up as opposed to when it is sitting on a flat surface.
Mee too....same here

Maybe I am not tapping it right when its flat
same here, also noticed that when I put my device on vibrate it still make sound on the first press and then goes silent.
Relax, it's software related, have some positive news for everyone, this 7.0 concept update for the z3 and z3 compact suggests that it's a software issue.

It said "Now, the proximity sensor will be checked before tap to wake is enabled, which should avoid any unintentional activation. "
Somebody get 10/10, mine tested in the store today, I had to press over 3 times to make the screen turn on.
Hi, first of all sorry for my english.
I have a strange problem with the touch in my Pixel 2. Quite often the back button does not work. The other two work flawlessly. Sometimes it happens that I click something on the screen and he does not reggae. Only the second or third pressing causes a touch response. I restored the phone to factory settings, but that does not help. So I decided to check it in emergency mode. In this mode, it seems to me that everything works very well. So it comes out that it's an app. It seems to me that when I entered Safe Mode in the Gboard settings it took once what I described. Is it possible for Gboard to freeze the screen? As for the back button I had the same in the LG V10 where were the buttons on the screen and I also had the same on the HTC 10. In these devices, the touch on the screen was OK. I also checked the screen touch with some apps from Google Play Store, and it also comes out that the touch works 100%. However, in normal mode, the phone can not be used. Did anyone meet with a similar case? Is this software or hardware issue?
Have you looked at https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2/help/experiencing-dropped-tap-inputs-t3692599
If it works properly in safe mode, it's most likely a software issue with some app, as you suggest.
It works properly in safe mode, but i saw two or times in this mode the same issue. It is not so often like in normal mode and i think it happens in Gboard settings.

I'm having a bad time with tapping on my pixel 2. It's becoming a real pain in my a$$ too. I did a pressure test with display tester and the results proved it is an issue. I'm not savvy enough to know what to do about it?

I don't see the option in stock Android, so I'm guessing that other phone manufacturers include it in their versions. I miss the ability to keep my screen on when using/viewing (e.g. facial recognition). Can someone confirm that this feature requires addition of an app? If so, is there a recommended app that does this and is light on resources? Thanks
Hi.
I use gravity for this. I disabled all other features except keeping the screen on when holding the device.
It doesn't use the camera though. It uses the accelerometer to detect if you're holding the device. Quite effective.
