Hi, my problem is difficult to be described so i posted a video (link below). Look like touch screen is not working but as you can see, when i push 'ok google' button I can interact. So it's probably a software problem, like UI doesn't work properly. I've never seen something like that. Do you know how can I solve it? I tried disconnecting from phone and doing a reset.

I have the same problem too on my Huawei SmartWatch 2 (not 4G) This problem begin a couple of days ago.
The clock work flawlessly, the top button work if I do a long press (Google Assistant appear) and the Watch react when I press the GA parameters on the screen.
My Watch continue to display and count my footsteps from Google Fit.
The Watch vibrate everytime I receive a notification, but the notification flash less than an half second and impossible to reach it to display.
From my phone, I can change the Watchface, I can change setting of the watchface.
IT IS NOW IMPOSSIBLE TO:
- Press the face of the watch, or slide the face of the Watch......no reaction.
- The Watch react when I touch the screen to turn it on, but that's it, no more action possible.
It is impossible to just restart the watch, because I can't reach any menu on the watch.
same here
Same issue here for a while now... as far as I remember occured since latest Wear OS app (2.16) update. Constant hiccups/lag after screen activation. We seem to be paying too much money for such "premium" consumer tech devices, which rather taste like beta software / testing hardware messing around with buggy software upgrades that keep on sneaking in regularly. This is ridiculous!
same thing happen to me as well between here and there. This is due to the watch faces.
All i do was restart the watch by keep pressing the top button (Google assistant button) for about 10 seconds.
The watch will reboot automatically.
Once its reboot I switch the watch face.

I just started having this "bug" yesterday. Basically, what happens (randomly) is that when I press the power button, remove the stylus, or slide the phone open to wake it up I'll be met with a black/blank screen. The backlighting will be on, and the phone is responsive (can receive messages, make calls, sounds/notifications work), but I won't be able to use the screen. If I use the power button to turn the screen back off and wait a few seconds, the screen might start working again. This is completely random and I cannot duplicate it with any guaranteed process, but it seems to be when the phone is waking up from standby. After a soft reset, probably half of the time I'll be met with this same delima, which leads me to believe it's hardware and not completely software.
At the same time the phone is also struggling to re-paint the screen from the change of Landscape-to-Portrait and visa versa. Also opening and closing windows to get back to the today screen also cause a problem. I've disabled TF3D to see if that makes a difference, it doesn't. I have a blank today screen with no plugins to free up the system resources, and am still having this issue.
I'm using JD's Rom (probably around 1.3, it's been running fine with no issues up to this point).
I'm also using S2U2 1.35 (if that makes any difference, haven't had any problems until recently)
The phone has never been dropped, it's in InvisibleShield, and normally sits on my desk charging all day.
This started happening last night for no apparent reason and it's really starting to irratate me.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
Re the black screen:
Sounds like its software related. For example, I sometimes have this if I leave PocketTwit in the foreground and turn off phone. What software did you install yesterday? Also, do you try to press the home key and see if that clears the screen?
After more testing..
After some more fiddling around with the phone I'm about 90% certain it's a hardware issue. I noticed that when I slide the keyboard out if the slide portion is past the number line then the screen will stay on, but not update. I don't know how well I can explain it. If I'm typing and hold the screen to keep it from opening all the way then I can see the letters/words appear (in txt msg/email), but if I let the screen goes and it slides all the way open then the screen will stay on and only show what has already happened, any more typed characters will not appear, but if I move the screen back to the number row then the screen will re-draw and update what has happened.
Is this something that Sprint should fix no questions asked?

The last piece of software I installed was Gyrator 2 on Friday-ish. Thinking that it was the problem, I removed it using MemMaid. I'm going to give the phone a flash tonight and see if it is software related (hoping for the easy fix) but as the post above says, I'm almost certain it's a hardware issue. I just wish I knew how it happened. . . So much for that time putting those InvShld on.
Final Update (this can be closed)
I took it into a Sprint store and they replaced the "flip" on the top for free (I have insurance).
Point of the story/thread, this can be closed, it was a hardware issue, and now it's fixed.
After updating to 3.2, I noticed that the touch screen has a ton of bugs. I used this program to check the inputs (I can't post links now due to forum restrictions):
Multitouch visible test
Basically if I scroll from far left to far right (Asus logo on the top left of my view), there is always a cutoff somewhere on the screen.
I never or hardly ever notice this problem when I'm in 3.1.
Any ideas on how to fix the problem? Or is it just 3.2 that has this and I should go back to 3.1?
Help is totally appreciated. Thanks!
Update:
Sent in the TF to Asus (to Ontario Canada) on August 9, 2011
Received it back from Asus on August 29, 2011 via UPS
Problem: they only reloaded the OS and did NOT test the touch screen so I have the exact SAME problem... Requesting RMA again
Can you grab a video of the issue?
Plonk it on youtube and then stick the url on here.
Cheers
Video is at youtube:

Basically a portion of the screen does not respond to touch, and the classic turning screen on and off does not fully solve this problem.
had this problem before 3.2.
my screen have only small places..quarter of inch, random places.
noticed this only after rooting. and with some kernels more than others.
have you rooted?
No root. All stock since I am too lazy to do anything other than install apps, view video and manga.

Quality vid there, top notch.
Have you tried a hard reboot?
And a restore to factory default settings?
For some reason that sounds sarcastic there... but the video was taken by a Desire HD so it's not that good quality. It conveys the point (I hope).
Haven't tried hard reboot or factory default settings because that would mean I have to reinstall stuff and re-setup things like gmail.
Lol dude, i wasnt being sarcastic, for some reason i was expecting some half-assed effort.
Hard reset shouldnt wipe your data.
Hard Reset:
Unplug the power cord and shut the unit off and Press and Hold the power button and the "Down" volume button together for 6-10 seconds and let them both go. After a few seconds you should see a couple of shapes in the middle of the screen called "Wipe Data" and "Android". Wait a few more seconds until the term "Cold Boot" appears in the list near the top of the screens and just press and release the "Down" volume button again and let it reboot. If you own the dock be sure and do this with the dock connected.
Sorry man, I guess my sarcasm detector is pretty off today.
I tried the hard reset and the same problem persists. I will have to see how this can be fixed though (I see that many people have similar problems though).
Thanks for your help =)
might be worth giving asus a tinkle and see what they say.
Hey everyone, I'm a fairly new OPO user myself here as well; I received mine back in early-mid October, and have had it since then.
But oddly enough, for the past two weeks or so, the following issues have surfaced and has become more frequent, and prominent than ever. For all the fellow OPO-users out there, I was wondering if anyone else has come across the same issue(s) that I've been going through... Unfortunately I really haven't had the time to look up any solution methods and whatnot with two young'uns whom are extremely demanding of my presence... All. The. Time.
So I thought that if I compiled my little list here, hopefully some kind soul will reach out to me with answers (or at least, the direction to where I could find those answers) and make my day just -that- much lighter.
Now just to mention the main points : NO, I have NOT rooted my phone, and YES, I DID install the OTA update, and currently my CM version is the 11.0-XNPH38R.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a) sometimes, my OPO screen will absolutely REFUSE to turn back on, after I've put the phone to sleep. nothing i do can get the screen to turn back on again - unless it decides it finally wants to. (it's got a mind of its own, this thing... and it's just as stubborn as I am. UGH.) i try double-tapping the screen several times (i've turned that feature on) and i try pressing the power/wake button, or holding it down, ... but zilch. this will usually last up to 10~15 minutes. (after 5~10 minutes of trying to bring it back to life, I just give up and let it be.) when the screen DOES end up turning back on, it's either flashing the "power off/reboot/accessibility" menu several times (probably from me trying to mess with the physical power/wake button) then finally respond to my 'backspace' on-screen keys, or the home icon, returning me back to the proper lockscreen it's supposed to show. ANOTHER way it ends up FINALLY responding, is that the phone will vibrate in short sequences of two, maybe three times and then it will initiate the rebooting process. then everything starts working fine again. i don't recall having ever done anything to trigger something like this to happen, either...
b) the keyboard (the stock Android keyboard) randomly will NOT work; by that I mean, when I am in a messaging app, or any other app that requires a person to TYPE WORDS ON, the keyboard DOES show up, (along with the suggestive bar just above it) and when I try to type, all the usual things will occur; the letter I happen to press will pop-up in response to my tap, and in the suggestive word bar above, it will start showing me the possible word combinations possible based on the sequence of the letters I type, but nowhere do I actually SEE on the SCREEN/message bar/etc. any letters or characters popping up. this issue too, will happen out of nowhere and will last about 15~20 minutes as well. usually what fixes the problem (as annoying as it is) is if I shut down/turn on, then reboot the phone a couple of times to get the keyboard to actually start working again. but there MUST be an easier method to fix this (and all my other issues) !
c) the stock camera app; this issue actually started occurring within days - just under a week of actually getting the shipment of the phone to my place. I was testing out the camera functions, the usual, then suddenly, I would get booted out of the app, and a message saying "The Camera cannot be used at this time" will pop-up as a result. (although, what was even STRANGER, was for a while, (for about 2-3 days) I was receiving a totally different message that didn't even make any SENSE: it said something along the lines of "the camera could not be connected to the device at this time" or "the camera has been disconnected from the device"... i don't even know HOW a camera can "disconnect" itself from the phone, but apparently it CAN.) with this issue, there was absolutely NOTHING I could do to start making it work again. it was non-functional for three, four days straight (no word of a lie) then just for the hell of it, I decided to open the camera app again, and boom, it was working. that didn't last long, though... then suddenly after opening the camera, there would be a prolonged black screen on the phone that wouldn't go away, and I couldn't select any options whatsoever... then when the camera finally started "working", i tried taking a picture - i thought that it would work, since nothing was indicative of it NOT working... but alas, such was not the case. when i went into gallery, to browse through the photos I had taken, they were not there at all, and the photos i had thought were taken weren't actually taken at all.
Asides from that, and some occasional (frequent) crashes while using the phone, I'm not feeling too frustrated by it. (I guess I just have an effin'-load of patience.) Still, I would greatly appreciate any thoughts or suggestions about this dilemma of mine, or providing me the key to all of the answers to these stupid bugs.
Thanks for all those who took the time to read my lengthy post. :fingers-crossed:

I'm having an issue with my Nexus 5 after the 5.0 updates. I'm currently on 5.0.1 but had the same issue with 5.0. My device is completely stock. Just never felt like doing anything to the nexus 5. First phone I decided not to root. The issue i'm having is that every once in a while during a day I will try to turn on my phone to view any notifications or just refresh some news sites. Instead of getting the lock screen and hearing the unlock click to slide, i'm taking right to the home screen bypassing the slide to unlock. All applications at this point will glitch. For example, if i open hangouts, it will open but be blank. Spotify might open, or just be a dark gray screen. Other apps just behave very strangely. If I try to press the home button, it lights up and won't do anything. If i press the multi-task button it looks like it will show the running apps but then just shows a blank screen. If I press the back button many times, it takes me back to the home screen which might or might not be blank. The only way around this is to reboot my phone. But this is happening a few times a day. Often, i'll also see the home button and multi task button disappear. I've taken two screen shots of what it looks like. Has anyone ever seen this issue? I don't mind downgrading back to 4.x or rooting for a custom rom if that will resolve this glitch. I can also provide a list of installed apps if anyone wants to know. So what do you guys think of this?
So i recently got a poco x3 nfc, and its good except it has an issue with registering inputs on the screen. It mostly happens when i press 3-4 or more fingers on the screen, which i always do when i play the games i bought this phone for in the first place. It will just ignore the inputs when i firmly tap on the screen with 3 or more fingers.
So if i go into developer options and turn on the show touch coordinates, it will show all of my inputs im doing on the screen fully accurately. The issue is that the game im playing isnt being told about these inputs at all and acting like they arent there. (not an issue with the game itself, this happens everywhere, even on the home screen.)
So the physical screen itself is fully fine but there is some kind of artificial limitation in the software or whatever.. maybe something along the lines of like limiting inputs when placed in a pocket or some kind of stupid other "accessibility" setting. and im wondering if i could fix it somehow, like flash a rom or change some setting or some screen repair app. Ive tried looking around the settings but was unable to find anything that would cause this. the "game turbo" thing had a "screen responsivity" option but sadly that changed absolutely nothing
here is a few demonstration videos: https://youtu.be/pJLiaXRxzWA (the display showing the inputs are happening but thing no work work)
https://youtu.be/I8RUbMgNnGM (press finger on screen, screen no do thing bla bla bla..)
and if anyone knows a better place to post this to get better answers please tell me
