[Q] [Xperia Mini - ST15]Touchscreen lose my/your fingers! - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi guys,sorry for my english,but I'm Italian(If you correct my mistakes make me a favor).
However,I tried 3 Xperia Mini and they have the same problem.
But this problem isn't mentioned anywhere.
You can see this problem when you play "Fruit Ninja" or when you use a free app called "Multi Touch Paint".
If you go very fast with your fingers,when you cut(Fruit Ninja)or when you draw(Paint) the touchscreen lose your fingers for a little moment.
You can see good this problem when you use Multi Touch Paint in "Kids Mode" because when you draw a continuous circle very fast,it changes color of your pen(the background change in any case)because it loses your fingers.
For me is a very great problem,because when I scroll fast vertical menu like the contacts,music or an alternative launcher(with a vertical menu)with my thumb,it loses my fingers and click something at random.
If you want an example,see this video of Sony Ericsson TXT Pro in this video minutes at 1:50:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUW0TNXjDB4
In the three Xperia Mini that I tried,the same thing happens but especially in vertical.
I sent my Xperia Mini to Sony Ericsson but I'm sure that it will come back with the same problem.
Any of you have the same problem?
Any of you has solve it?With CM7?
Try to use "Multi touch Paint" in "Kids Mode" and you will discovered if your device has this problem.

Do you have a protective layer on the mini ? (I mean the minis you've tried)
I don't know but maybe it has to do something with that. I have a protective layer on my screen, though I don't encounter big problems with it..
It only happens seldom, but it's annoying when it does, in both directions, horizontally and vertically scrolling

Nope.
Precisely,I had a first,but then I removed for this problem.
But the problem remains.
My Xperia Mini now is on Sony Ericsson's Support.
I hope they solved this problem.
But what I asked to my self...
How is it possible that nobody noticed this problem?
This for me is a huge problem,because make me difficult to use the phone with one hand.
And I could sell the phone for this.
EDIT: Ajsaz you have to explain if you made my test or not.
Vote without posting is useless.

I also have this problem. ,__,
Any fix?

yes, you are right!!!
but until I read this thread, I didn't notice that bug in normal usage, cause you must be VEEERY fast

I have this problem too. Have a look a this thread, pages 6 and 7. User skritikos had the phone fixed and posted the ticket he received from the Sony Ericsson assistance. Could be useful.

[Q] X10 mini pro / CynaogenMOD6 3.2.1 / physical keyboard

I have problem with my x10 mini pro physical keyboard. It's simply does not work.
The problem started after flashing with CynaogenMOD 3.2 and then 3.2.1. Well it have been working for couple of days, but some day just stopped.
I did flash with se generic rom, and it didn't help at all.
I tried with IridiumRom with no help..
Get back Cynaogen again tried to mess with keyboad settings also without the result.
Keyboard works only when its half opened, also the screen orientation is changed then. So i guess i could be some hardware issue with the switcher which tells if keyboard is opened or closed. Anyway phone is new like 10 days. So i dont think that it would have any physical damage.
I also tried to install some DualTouch from forum before i noticed that its for X10 not mini
I'm about to get the phone on warranty but i wish to fix it by myself because i like to know what happend.
Did anyone has same problem?
I have got exactly the same problem as this post about my x10 mini pro's keyboard functionality. Anyone know what happens to it?
I have updated firmware by SEUS to v2.1 update 1. But nothing solved.
Hardware issue maybe? _ Not maybe... most likely.
There is keyboard setting. Try it.

Hmms, I downgraded it to v1.6 for checking. When fully slide out, my hardware keyboard is back to response again (can input by any key). But backlight still turn off in the dark and home screen does not rotate to lanscape. It does only when keyboard is partially slide out.
Maybe as ruifung reply is correct, hardware issue. Some sensor may have problem.
Thank you for all replies.

Screen sensitivity change after ICS?

Has anyone noticed a change in how the touchscreen behaves after installing ICS?
It seems to me that it is biased a little more towards interpreting a touch as swipe or scroll rather than select. For example clicking links in a webpage or tapping icons on the homescreen seem to require a much more deliberate effort to select/open. It's not awful, but I would like to be able to bias it back a little more to selecting rather than swiping.
Is there a setting for this anywhere or an app available that allows adjustment?
I would to know too.. I hate this..
But it's not just from latest ICS 4.0.3 International, the Beta version also suffer same thing.
Is HC not like this? (I upgraded to 4.0.3 Beta as soon as after bought Mediapad )
Yes, I noticed it also. When you turn on Settings - Developer options - Pointer location, it clearly shows how your clicks/dots becomes swipes/lines.
yes, you're right.. it sometime (most time ) cause texting experience not so fluid (letter not appear as it's detected as swipe not click).
got the same thing.. i've changed the launcher, so with the Apex launcher it's not that bad in the homescreens.. when i enabled the option to show "pointer location" i can see the "tap" as a line, or a "swipe" line :\
tried the same on my Galaxy S, and all the "taps" are only a small point.. it's much better than on the MediaPad.. i hope it's just a software issue and it can be solved..
maybe, we could try something like "screen booster" or "touchscreen booster" from the Market (Play)
Erratic screen while charging
The other thing I've noticed after ICS international is that the touchscreen is now erratic while charging and in a case. I believe this is a common problem with capacitive touchscreens, but hadn't noticed it until after flashing ICS. It is not an issue if I remove the pad from the case and hold it in my hand.
Anyone else seen this?
This sensitive touchscreen isn't Angry Birds friendly. Constantly shakes a little bit.
soooo.....is there any solutions?

[Q] X10 mini pro - how to remove physical keyboard

Hi!
I have problem with probably flex cable in my x10 mini pro.
When p. keyboard is slide out screen is freeze, after closing it all back to normal.
That was good because I could use phone w/o keyboard. But now all goes wrong. My screen is freaking out! Now after few minutes/seconds/hours of using screen is spliting, notification bar is on the middle of screen and phone is useless.
I tried to change rom, kernel etc and nothing helped.
Maybe is way to disable physical keyboard and make my phone to think that there is no keyboard like in normal x10 mini.
I've root, unlocked bootloader etc.
in system/app i don't see nothing that sounds like "hey! delete me and keyboard will be untouchable". So I need alot/some help.
If xda community and particulary you, will not know how to do this, nobody will help me

Yes, it's probably your flex which needs to be replaced.
Simply disabling your hw-keyboard is not going to work though, because the phone's hardware is actually underneath the keyboard and not in the part that holds the screen. Replacing the flex isn't that difficult though, search here or on youtube for guides of how to do that.

Fingerprint unlock loads random app

Hi all
I'm very satisfied with my S6 Edge (925F) but I'm facing a weird problem: when I unlock the phone using my fingerprint(s), it works perfectly but sometimes it's not the home screen which is displayed, but another random app, (i.e Facebook, Settings, News Republic or other...)
I have to press the back button to return to the home screen...
Anyone having the same problem? (not a big deal but...)
Started to happen to me as well a couple of days back. It's strange because it never happened before and I didn't change anything on the phone.
Never happened to me so far. Are you sure you weren't already in that app when you locked your device? The fingerprint unlocks into the last open app. Go back to home before locking.
Another possibility is that you are tapping a notification before unlocking. Say you have a notification from FB and you tap on it. The screen will stay locked, but it will open the FB app. Unlocking with fingerprints will then show FB open. Same can happen for email, texts, etc. You can also pull down the status bar and tap settings, then when you unlock, settings will be open.

Thanks but not at all.
It happens randomly, either I'm in an app or not (and if so, it's not necesseraly the one I was on!)
Quite mysterious...
I was using Nova Launcher (maybe the cause), will give 2-3 days Touchwiz a chance, and will report back...
Hey guys,
same problem for me. It is not dependant of the unlock method (i'm experiencing it with finger print or regular unlock).
I think it is a Nova launcher bug, only occur with nova for me.

I think so...unfortunately...
I think it's the latest nova launcher beta version that causes the issue.
I'm using Nova since I got the phone, a month ago, haven't experienced this.
I have been having this problem too and was about to start a new thread. I am using Nova too, though I did try installing the google now launcher and seemed to have the same problem. I suppose Nova simply being installed may cause the problem.
I will try uninstalling Nova and use TouchWiz for a bit. Not sure how long I will last, I think I prefer the random apps to Touchwiz.
How did the rest of you get on after switching away from Nova?
I have been experiencing this issue as well but ive been using the nokia Z-launcher. I have a feeling it might also be my fingers inadvertently touching the curved portion of the screen when i hold it.
I have the same thing happen to me. I thought I was going insane. The worst part is, I'm on a note 3 and I'm using touchwiz lollipop. I'm 100% sure no applications are running before I lock the phone, and when I use the pattern unlock, whatever application shortcut that was on the screen when I lock the phone, a random app from that screen will run when I unlock the phone. It doesnt happen all the time, but it happens at least a couple times a day.
Reason
Hey guys. I am using Nova Launcher too. And I have the same problem. I don't have the sollution, but I found the reason. ? When you lock your S6, the touchscreen stays for a second active. And if you hit an app in that second it will open when you unlock your S6.
Sorry for my bad English, I hope someone can do something with this information.
Cya ??

It seems that if the Nova's desktop margin is set to "Medium" or "Big", this problem is reduced, but I don't know if it's fully solved. Will see...
Have you found any other solution?

I think that has nothing to do with it. It could be true that it reduces it, but the only reason it would do that is because:
Mostly when you lock your S6 your fingers touch the side of the screen.
When you set margin to "Medium" or "Big" and you lock your phone, your fingers wil most likely touch no app on the side of your desktop, because the margin "pushes" them to the middle of the screen.
I haven't found a solution. Still waiting for an update to fix it.

Yes, that makes sense. Anyway, if looks perfectly good with marging set to medium, and I've had no issues with this problem since I changed the setting (yesterday). So if it reduces the problem so much, I can live with it...

Great news, the update I got today (4.2.2) fixed the bug. It was from Nova. I think this ends the thread. Happy new year guys. Cya!
Yep, it is finally fixed! Cheers!
Still happening in the latest Nova... running in Oppo phone.

Problem in double tap turn-on

Hello guys, I have a little problem with my Xperia Z2. When I do double tab on screen sometimes my Xperia Z2 don't turn-on.
Alsome know as fix this?
I am with Rom eXistenz, but when I was with Rom stock, also had this problem.
I'm sorry, I'm Brazilian and my English don't is good.
Thanks
This is a issue you have to tap on the same area where u did the first tap and it will unlock
I don't really use this feature anymore as for me, it only worked "properly" on 4.4 and since then I find it very unreliable to the point where there's no benefit of using it as taping 3-6 times on screen just to get it right isn't very convenient. It's really shame, since back in time of 4.4 I've pretty much used tap to wake exclusively. Not sure if there is any fix/sensitivity change... Would be nice though
You can use an app called ambient display when u pull your phone out of your pocket it will unlock by itself.must try that
Thanks for all answers.
