Can you disable touch input in a particular place of the screen? - General Questions and Answers

Is there an app/code/apk that can disable touch input in a specific area of the screen on my unrooted Huawei Y6 Pro? I would really like an answer as soon as possible.
Also, if it helps, this is a physical error in the screen and it phantom touches in one particular area very time, so please don't suggest some sort of software fix. What I'm actually looking for is to someone suggest an app like Tasker to set a little dead zone where the phantom touch is.
So, in a nutshell, I want to disable a part of my touchscreen, not using rooted methods, so that every time I touch that area on my phone it does not respond and doesn't receive it as a touch.
Thanks for the help.

[Q] touch screen malfunction

hi,
I'm not sure when exactly this issue started on my phone, but I updated my touch pro with the chevron updater and have quite a lot of apps installed.
after several seconds workling with the phone, the touch screen stops working while the phone acts perfectly normal. I can use the keyboard and tilt the phone but I cannot use the touch screen anymore.
By turning the phone off and on it works again.
has anyone experienced a behavior like this?
I noticed my touchscreen becoming unresponsive when loading particular websites. Even had it freeze once (only time it ever froze on me)
What were you doing when it does this? Do you have the multitasking reg edit on?

I know this is an old thread but this is the only reference to the exact same problem that I'm having. I'm having difficulty putting this down to hardware as the screen becomes responsive again when locking and unlocking which might point to software.
It could be a hardware issue that is resolved by locking then unlocking the phone but I don't know enough about the construction of it to have an opinion.
The advice I've had from htc is to wipe the 'phone and start again but I don't expect that to solve it (especially as their call handling system refers to Window Mobile 7 - the second large commercial organisation I've seen that on in recent weeks without looking too hard!).
Has anyone else seen this since the original post or @exilkubaner was a solution found to your problem?
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem. I hard reset my HTC 7 Pro, but no success, my screen doesn't respond until i lock/unlock the device.
So, any one have resolved this issue since the first post ?
Regards
Had the same issue, but I didn't have any roms installed.
Brought it in to Sprint and they found that I had a fried ribbon connecting the screen to the phone. Replaced under warranty.
It happened again, I determined that it was caused by my click in belt clip/holster. When I pull the phone out, it pulls the screen away from the keyboard a bit.
^Wow. Nice find. I'll have to be careful with mine now as I could easily run in to the same problem pulling it out like that.

[Xperia Miro] Problems with the Proximity Sensor

Hello there.
I have recently had to replace my screen on my miro due to a crack, This went successfully in the fact the phone now works as before, with one minor problem. Since trying to make and receive calls my phone automatically goes to a black screen. this after many searches on the net resulted me to conclude that the sensor is blocked, as the screen digitizer was slightly different for the top left of screen too. the place where the sensors live. In can go round the problem with a set of earphones but sometime a call will cut off more using them. I downloaded the hardware disabler developed on this site but it doesn't load any drivers and then crashed, there also appears to be no other hardware disablers out there, or at least none I can find.
Basically I need some help on restoring the call function, either by fixing the proximity sensor or by getting rid of it
Any help will be welcome on this matter.
thanks

[Completed] Android Lollipop screen lock

Ever sincec I got my LG G3 Stylus, I've got this issue that keeps bothering me a lot. I've searched the net, the phone's configs and etc and got nothing.
Since the phone is on warranty still, I decided not to root it yet (doesn't give me a lot of advantages doing so)
However, whenever I'm using the phone to do stuff, be it watching a video on youtube app, using facebook app, or any other app for instance, sometimes I accidentally touch the screen with my fingers or arm, and it locks. Like a screen lock that happens when you press the lock button behind it. I've searched in every option available on the phone and didn't find anything that could turn out to be a screen lock shortcut or something similar.
Anyone have an Idea what might be triggering the screen lock?

I'm not entirely sure how is that post related to my issue, they report that their phones are stuck on the logo, while I'm having issues with random screen locks (probably a touch shortcut)

Do you have touch problems?

Recently I bought the motorola one vision that by the way I left it today in the warranty and on Saturday they will give me a new one, I changed it because I was having problems with the tactile sensitivity.
I come from a xiaomi mi a2 and I am used to writing very fast, in the motorola one vision when writing fast or normal sometimes certain letters when touching them did nothing like they do not recognize the touch.
This happens to me with a tempered glass screen protector or without it and when charging this is worse, and also if for example I put the phone on a surface the sensitivity drops to the maximum.
If you google it you will see a lot of reports of this issue in lenovo forums
do you have this touch issue too?
Yes, I have problems with the touchscreen sensitivity, because of this I removed the protective screen of the display which did not stick well because of the curvature of the screen. Now I use the phone without a foil screen protector and the touch is better . I read in this forum there are more people complained this matter . Also I can tell this is not Gorilla glas this is some glass equivalent to Gorilla glass 3 .
90% have this problem , is hardware issue . A10 solved it a little but still have it
I have this problem and it drives me crazy. I am still stuck on A9 so hoping A10 does indeed improve it a little. The worst is when the phone is sitting flat on my desk - it is almost impossible to use.
No touch issues here. XT1970-3 with tempered glass. Don't know about in games as I don't play.
I also had problems using the device with film, I researched a lot on the Internet about it and it seems to be a problem with the device. But with two simple configurations I managed to get around the problem and the device is very usable at the moment. 1 - Go to settings - System - Languages ​​and input - click advanced - find the option Pointer speed - Slide the bar all the way to the right and click Ok. Restart the device. 2 - Open again Settings - Sound - Scroll the screen down - Click on advanced - Find the option "Vibrate when touching the screen" and disable it.
I hope I helped, with these two settings I managed to get around the problem on my device. It still has some gagging but the touch response is much better.
Sorry my bad english.

This is not a quite well solution because increasing sensitivity of touches from settings will cause false-positive clicks, touches , whatever which are undesirable in a daily use of phone .

I made this configuration on my device and had no problem with false positives. And with the update to Android 10 the touch has improved more. I noticed that by activating the "vibrate when touching the screen" setting again, the device again fails to touch when typing.

I'm sure you're right about this but I'm sure you have a screen protector . I don't . So in my case your solution isn't quite well .
Help us to find a solution
Hello, I have the same problem but I found something that help...
My problem increase when is on a surface, but if you plug only the cable type C the problem is fix...
If you do it, just plug the cable to the phone and the other part leave it alone
I think the port or something internal there isn't connected to ground... Maybe someone with better knowledge in electronics can help.
Test it and tell me if works you
Bought one for my wife and updated to Android 10. I can confirm the issue still exists touch sensitivity is not very accurate . It's ok could be better but not a deal breaker. Motorola should do something z then again all hardware is made by samsung..... This model it's not produced anymore , I wonder why....
