Possibly. Mine had a very slight issue like this when the phone got warm, but that is mainly for people with the TRUE ghost touch. That means you swipe and sometimes it swipes lazy whrn scrolling because it didn't catch the entire swipe, typing on the keyboard is terrible because it "touched" a different letter, and using an app to test the multitouch registers less than 10 fingers, or even putting a few fingers on the screen causes it to touch elsewhere or not detect a touch. I had a OnePlus One like this when they were still being sold and it was terrible. Then there was a nightly CyanogenMod build that fixed the problem but would drain battery about twice as fast.
Currently, we have custom roms that have updated drivers which vastly improve the screen performance on the ones that had very little issues. Me for example after flashing DotOS I no longer get the very slight issues. My issue mainly occured when swiping, where it would require a swipe perfectly straight up or down instead of the normal way we swipe with our thumbs which is usually slightly tilted. It wasn't something to ruin the experience for me, but sometimes unlocking my phone with the pattern was difficult because of this. There was another rom out there that specifically outlined that it had many updated drivers including the Synaptics drivers (touch), but I cannot recall the name.

my oneplus one was fine bro, I used every custom rom and it worked very well! but in the last month it start happening this ghost touch problem
and I'm sure its 100% hardware, even on TWRP it happens
update 2 : i posted a video on youtube for the lowered sensitivity of pocophone f1 8.11.29 and compared it to note 9 touch to settle the debate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cALkjau09xs
update : about the touch there seem to be a debate whether it is improved or not .. i just did a reset and discovered that by default the google keyboard has no borders and full gesture is not enabled .. so if you set the theme of the gboard to enable key borders and enabled full screen gesture you will definitely feel the lower edge space bar problems and that allover sensitivity is lowered
thought to write my initial impressions about 8.11.29 open beta software .. it was released couple of hours ago and i updated from 8.11.15 with ota and no reset done
hdr still works in youtube
youtube full screen support is there
hevc 4k60 10 bit files now works flawlessly on mi video app
camera noise during low light conditions improved but on the expense of details as there is some kind of photo softness introduced
there is a small bug too which is still there google keyboard key-presses sound is mute every restart and you have to turn it off and on again to enable
PUBG touch is fixed
my analysis for the touch :
1st they reduced touch sensitivity a bit and i think this was done as some people complained from over-sensitivity with cables touching screen and stuff .. the problem i see this is normal and it didn't deserve to lower sensitivity for as this is how touch works .. the flow of electric charge from your hand pass through the cable and reach the screen
2nd ghost multitouch issue is there but i only tested with multitouch tester and i didnt notice it while working on the mobile
3rd now if i put the mobile on the chair hand and do not catch it with my hand 95% of touches are not registered which proves they lowered sensitivity ( the percentage may differ with mobile position grounding and battery level and charging or not )
4th the edges touch is less sensitive specially the lower part and space bar in addition to their lag so the keyboard is not usable now and will give you lots of space bar mistakes .. i think this is because of the lowered sensitivity all over the screen in addition to crippled edges touch from the start (using full screen gestures)
5th this is complicated it is how the PUBG was fixed : there was a user here on xda and miui that complained of particular touch issue were small turns were laggy and not registered .. this was completely fixed and PUBG plays excellent now
so to sum this up apparently edges have some sort of hardware problem and it will not be better than 8.11.15 so they should return sensitivity to 8.11.15 level so keyboard is usable again and keep the PUBG fix .. i think this will be the best partial fix for touch issues .. as by now i am convinced that they dont have a 100 % fix .. i was surprised they even fixed PUBG but who knows .. so now keyboard is in an unusable state if you turn on fullscreen gestures and cancelled the homescreen buttons .. so temporarily solutions till fix #1 you need to turn on the home buttons bar and wait for a fix or #2 disable keyboard borders in gboard theme and enable fullscreen gestures
i will add edit this post later and add rest of my impressions to this post as i test the phone
please share yours .. also do you see that i need to reset the phone before assessing the update ?!
Touch issue is still present, but different.
It is less than before, however now I notice it mostly on the spacebar. (In fullscreen mode)
While typing, it sometimes doesn't register me pressing the spacebar entirely. Does someone has the the same feeling about this?

yes i was testing the touch this last hour and i agree with you about the space bar and i will tell you my anaylsis
but as a starter and to cheer people up PUBG turn touch lag is fixed and now small turns are registered without a lag
so again PUBG touch fixed

4th the edges touch is less sensitive specially the lower part and space bar in addition to their lag so the total experience here with keyboard is not good and will give you lots of space bar mistakes .. i think this is because of the lowered sensitivity all over the screen in addition to crippled edges touch from the start

Agreed, however the screen now flickers a lot and the user experience is very poor due to this.
I never had any touch issues and even now it's fine.

what do you mean by flickering rajeev ?! i didnt notice any flickering while using the mobile and playing videos or games .. the only flicker i saw is in camera in certain modes while recording video and i think this can be easily fixed by xiaomi team i think
So, after this final update the touchscreen works awful.
I mean, I never had screen bleeding or touch issues with this phone, but this last update really killed it. I have to often press twice on something to open it. Looks like it does not have the same sensitivity like before.
Very anoying.

i dont know why they lowered the sensitivity ??!! i have been investigating till i found a couple of posts complaining from over-sensitivity but apparently they were talking with some one important .. of course any mobile screen will be touch sensitive to cables thats no brainer hhhhhh

Well, it seems to be f*cked up to the point i have to press very hard on the screen to register touches. Yesterday everything was smooth and perfect, and now ... I'm thinking of selling this and buy myself a real phone ...

i know what you mean but since rest of features such as hdr works flawless for me now i can endure a couple of weeks for a better fix .. but eventually i will sell it too when i found an appropriate one .. pocophone sold out from egypt so i will have no problem selling it under warranty anytime .. i will stick for a couple of months
For me stable 10.0.6.0 is the best. I hope MIUI team will release a good stable based on android 9

Wait, what? xD
The wiring of cables are always covered with an insulator which restricts the flow of electrons on the outer surface, so it's definitely the over-sensitivity which is the devil here.
This issue is not present in custom ROMs as the devs have managed to implement the fix from 8.11.15 and 8.11.23.

i changed electrons to electric charge to be precise .. also i have acer iconia w700 tablet that register touches from cables .. also my note 5 do this .. there is nothing called over-sensitivity except when it affects things or cause a malfunction .. if over-sensitivity was present i never felt a malfunction from it and pubg game touch issues was not related to over-sensitivity at all and there was a complete topic here taking about this specific poblem
on the other side almost all ppl complain from touch problems and screen edges that do not register touches as center .. so you take a decision to lower sensitivity ????!!!!! thats weird and i cannot comprehend till now
do you know that if i used the side of my finger vs the tip touch differs .. so there is difference between ppl and you cannot go lower sensitivity on a phone ppl complaining about its touch issues
also dont forget the screen protector that has its toll on touch sensitivity .. all these factors must be considered
their only excuse that this is a beta

Ahhhhh! I get it now!
But my verdict is that Xiaomi released this phone with just pure excitement and nothing else. They did not optimize the phone for users' convenience. This is a beta phone and they'll PROBABLY hit the right note with the successor of this phone. And worst part, we've surrendered ourselves as 'testers' for this phone. :/

Exactly. I too never had touch issues before this update.
---------- Post added at 07:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 AM ----------
I had done the multi touch test when I bought this smartphone and it registered all the 10 touches easily in the first go. Now, after this update it won't even register 5 touches without trying repeatedly.
I also noticed unresponsive touch problem with .23 and .29 beta updates. I didn't have this touch problem with .15 beta and below. Also, the lock screen flickers on .29. Most probably due to auto brightness I think. While using facelock, the screen brightness changes like crazy. Tried .29 with global beta, EU rom and globe rom, and with franko kernel. The screen flickers like super fast brightness change from low to high to low continuously with all.
Reverted back to .15 now, and touch is good now. And also no screen flickering.

I installed the full rom- 1.7gb and the flicker is gone from lockscreen.
well 2 months passed and we tried every software out there for pocophone but touch issues are not fixed yet .. some of touch issues could be fixed by software but what will not be fixed is the screen edges touch and apparently it is faulty
writing on keyboard on poco is the worst ever .. it is laggy .. edges do not register .. lots of mistakes in abnormal way .. something is fishy here
we want
1. a statment from xiaomi to admit the hardware problem
2. open the door for a replacment with fixed screen pocophone f1
3. or an upgrade to similar spec mobile with 845 sd
4. or just refund us our money
please we need the support of every owner there of pocophone f1 .. write a comment and share the topic and raise the discussion.. we trusted xiaomi .. and we endured waiting for a fix .. it is not appropriate xiaomi to betray that trust
n.b to people who think there mobile is fine : 1st all miui software were tried even beta releases up to 8.11.29 .. 2nd thats not some sporadic cases it is almost all the majority of the ppl who bought the phone just search the forum .. 3rd some people wont notice the problem because they dont use fullscreen gesture and their keyboard do not reach lower edge also some ppl do not write fast .. 4th people asked for replacment and they got multiple replacments all the same with same touch issues .. 5th i didnt try different kernel but if the phone company cannot fix it so you convice me that and an outside fix have done it ??!! and why would i download an outside kernel and void my warranty if discovered ???!!! .. 6th and the most important one if touch doesnt matter to you or you claim that your phone touch is 100% i am happy for you but that changes nothing for the majority of us as we have a real not addressed problem here
Try 8.12.6 or 8.12.7 pie builds.

Touch and UI is getting better BUT MORE PROBLEMS COMES THAN ITS SOLUTION.
-Screen freezes and you have to lock and unlock your screen for a temporary fix
-Multi touch/Ghost touch issues (happens 8/10 during gaming session)
-Screen flickers (happens after 8.11.29)
-Sometimes the touches doesn't register on the navbar and the middle of the screen
It's time for Xiaomi or the POCO team to make an official statement regarding this issue. It's been 2 to 3 months already. Time for them drop the pride and more trust will be gained
Return your device then. I don't have any such issues, so yes it is obviously a hardware problem but only to your device.

Except it's happening to 9/10 POCO USERS. Saying it only just happens to his only Poco is absolutely absurd as it took about 2-3 months for the devs to fix this 'software' issue. They should have make an official statement about this before they start losing more trust.
Sure you don't have any issues because you're not trying hard enough for your poco to replicate those issues that other poco users have. I can safely assume you don't even play tap intensive games such as drums on your poco
apparently it's 8/10 since i don't have these issues as well
and i play a lot of pubg so if there's the touch issues i would know...

Miui 8.12.4 beta works better, no ghost touch, but lack of sensitivity..
Miui 8.12.7 beta fix the sensitivity, but it has ghost touch..
This is my finding.

That's called the False Consensus Effect. If it was even 5/10 users, you would see it on every single Facebook post and all over the web. I literally only see it here on XDA and on MIUI.com sometimes, always from few users.
Be passive aggressive all you like, implying that I don't use my phone properly. It's still not our fault that you have buyers remorse and didn't return the device for something else when you had a chance.
Complaining about it here is pretty pointless though so I just assumed you were looking for attention.
But... they have already fixed laggy edges and typing is fine now. What they didn't fix is the bottom and top edge of the screen and now they have latency (but they worked fine before on every stable Oreo so idk). I too think it's a hardware issue that can be optimised/almost fixed on the level of kernel because the edges' reaction to touch is still very weird regardless of the fix but from version 8.11.23 on you can type fast or play drum games on Poco just fine. I just want them to fix the bottom and top latency and all will finally be good. I have to say the Poco team took the touch issue quite seriously because they could have just released a ridiculous statement like they did about screen bleeding but they actually did something about this. We just need to be a little bit more vocal about the remaining issues, offer them feedback and I believe they will resolve them eventually.

I don't really care what effect or aftereffect or what are you implying. You should notice by now the most brought up issue about the Pocophone is the touch issues but hey you got unaffected ones lucky for you then.
Didn't return the device when we the affected ones had a chance? Lol.
The poco teams stated that the touch issues are 'software' related and we trusted them for updates and such.
3 months now waiting for a 'software' fix and trust me I REALLY hoped it was software.
If by stable around December the touch isn't fixed. I'lll probably use the warranty.

Seems to be fixed on 8.12.7. Update is available.
Successfully update to open beta 8.12.7 via OTA (Locked Bootloader). Following are the observation :-
Good news :-
1) With the update 8.12.7 touch latency of keyboard is is minimized to a great extent but not fully gone.
2) 960fps and night mode is working.
3) Status Bar icon flickering is gone.
4) For me there were no screen flickering issue before the update nor after the update.
Bad news :-
1) Touch recognition near bezels (around 1mm from edges) is still not improved.
2) Youtube Vanced can't be played in picture-in-picture Mode when using full screen gesture.
3) Sometimes Back gesture in full screen mode doesn't work when any apps folder on home screen is open (it was also a bug on 8.11.29).
I'm on 8.12.7 and bottom part of screen (navbar or keyboard space bar in full screen) still misses some touches. Back button on the nav bar has a random behavior, sometimes reacts very well, sometimes lags or misses toch. I hope they find a solution.

Try use your keyboard and type 'q' then 'i' very fast.
If 'iq' comes out then this stable pie used touch firmwares from 8.11.15.

The new Pie stable does not have the touch fix implemented. It looks like one of the early November beta builds.
Just like what I said in the title, I'm about to get a new screen replacement as I heard newer batches don't have any touch related issues. I'm a hardcore gamer and I think touch is very important for me when playing games.
Already 3 months and 'software fixes' regarding touches is not working great.
My phone is from september batch and running 8.12.27 beta and facing touch lags around edges.
Clean flashed 8.12.20 now more multi touches issues under notch.
Is there anyone else who already got a screen replacement?
Any issues like screen bleed/touch delay/multi touch and so on?
Under warranty??

Yes
I also have the same problem but I'm on the stable Pie version of the ROM.
I still havent found any problem though. My screen does have a lil bit light bleed. Still,no touch issue yet.
buy a switch or something, you can consider yourself as ''hardcore gamer'' if you play un phone xD
I'm also facing touch lag around the edges.
The screen center is lag free though. Latest stable Pie didn't improve anything. I also have a little bit of screen bleeding around the notch.
Does the warranty cover this?

How about doing 'qi'test and see if it outputs iq on your Poco.
What ROM you using?
Any multi touch issues when playing tap intensive games like drums or MOBAs?
I think you might be wasting time because I'm pretty sure I've seen someone here or on Reddit say that they had their screen replaced and it did not fix the touch issue for them. Keep in mind after replacement that any of the beta releases from 8.11.23 on (except for the 8.12.27 update) have a new kernel which fixes the delay on the right and left edge and improves scrolling. So if you wish to test if the replaced screen did fix anything, use the stable ROM or the .27 beta to check that.
I must be one of the ones without the screen issue then.
Lel
What exactly is the touch issue?
I Got Armoured edition 128GB delivered yesterday itself. Updated it to MIUI 10.1.3.0 PIE and i am facing no issues as of now. No screen bleeding and no touch Issues.
I would like too to know how to detect those display issues.

Ofcourse I'll use the Stable ROM to get a new screen instead using beta.
I can replicate those touch issues on Stable i.e touch delay on edges.
It'll be useless to ask for a screen replacement using a beta just to find out all the store did was just change it from Beta to Stable to 'fix' the touch issue lol.

If you're on Stable pie, type 'qi' fast and most Pocos will output 'iq' even though pressed q first then i. This is touch delay issue.
If you're on 8.12.20 beta, theres screen freezes and multi touches under the notch if you tap and slide 2 finggers at the same button with a bit of force for it to occur. Screen freeeezes also happens where you cannot register ANY touches on the screen until you lock and unlock your phone

If you're on Stable pie, type 'qi' fast and most Pocos will output 'iq' even though pressed q first then i. This is touch delay issue.

Well, I'm still not sure. Sometimes, I will do it quickly and output is "qi" but sometimes I do it quickly, output is "iq" but I'm not sure if I pressed "q" or "i" first, because of the speed. It's there any other way to prove it?
And if it have lags, who can feel those? Because I definitively not.

'q' then 'i' super fast and make sure you know what you are pressing first.
Or you can try 'p' then 'e' quickly see if it comes as 'pe' or 'ep'
Every Poco have it. Forget about it and wait for the fix or just change to another device. If you're really hardcore, I'm assuming you a PUBG gamer, you should know that gyroscopic is the best way to aim on the game and the touch issue means nothing.
I can confirm by testing it, that switching from 8.12.27 to 8.12.10 touchscreen fw the delay is improved. At least, according to the maximum speed that I can type, performing the simple test of typing q and afterwards g or q and afterwards i, with the 8.12.10 is always printing on the screen the right order of the letters I ve typed, thus qg/qi, but on 8.12.27 always the outcome was gq/iq. My device is made on Oct.2018.

Oh that's interesting. Some people here claim that newer batches don't have the touch problem yet you seem to have the exact same issue as my unit which was assembled in July 2018. Full four months and the issue still there... That is why I don't believe there are Poco users who don't have this problem.

I just don't know.
It's just that maybe some units aren't affected.
I heard some random guy in the Poco reddit got a pocophone around September and bought another Poco for her little brother 2 months after that and what happened is his poco has touch issues while his little brother's doesn't have any.
That's why I thought I'm gonna get a new screen replacement
I have been using my OP7 PRO for less than a month and I have moticed something weird.
When navigating with google maps the GPS is able to locate my location extremely well (better than the Redmi devices I've had before)
but the direction of the blue dot on the maps is off a lot, I mean it sometimes points in the opposite direction.
I tried factory reseting my device and it didn't affect it at all.
compass apps show direction the same way as every other phone I've had but not google.
Does anyone else experience this issue?
Thanks for everyone in advance
Yes me too. Did the figure of eight a few times and left it flat for a bit and it eventually sorts itself out

Does it work properly now? mine works kinda well until i press the location button again and points to the same direction no matter where I am.
If you are in a car or something that produces a magnetic field you may have to calibrate again

Seems to be yea
I'm having the same issue with the 7T. Did you find a permanent fix? I'm tired of having to continuously recalibrate the compass multiple times a day.
Same here. This phone must just have a crappy compass that's very prone to interference, since with a certain car it always glitches out
SD845/SD855/SD855+ all have crappy GPS modules. Took me a super long time and careful, extensive research to dig this down.
Huawei's Kirin, Samsung's Exynos are both way superior in terms of GPS/compass accuracy and precision. I mean, don't take my word for it. Install a simple GPS app on your SD855 or whatever phone and compare it with a P30 Pro or a Mate series, or an S10+, etc. They will blow your phone out of the water in terms of signal strength.
For example.
OP 7 Pro [ SD 855 ]: Dark red/orange ~30%.
Pixel 3a XL [ SD 670 ]: Yellow/almost-green, ~60%.
Note9 [ Exynos ]: Bright green signal: 90-95%.
Galaxy S7 Edge [ Exynos ]: Green signal: ~80-85%
Trust me I had my fair share of trouble and headache because of the inaccuracy on the OnePlus phones. It's super frustrating too, especially if I am in a hurry and on foot and it just won't get a lock. Want me to break the phone in half. Hell I purchased a secondary phone ever since buying an OP just for the GPS.. it's that bad sometimes. An old Galaxy has was better reception. But you can just buy a Huawei or whatever as well, they are all very affordable. I just wish Snapdildo would fix their GPS module.
Hi. I have a compass issue as well.. But mine doesn't work at all..
I am using lineage os. Version attachment..
Op7pro..
