A few times I've had a blank right-hand pane but a couple of times the entire screen has turned to a mass of coloured lines, like an untuned TV - worrying!
Pressing home would return it to normal.
Anyone else?

On my camera sometimes when i go to take pics the menu the pops up on the right giving you flash options, ect...sometime parts of it will be clear, like see through then you restart camera and it back to normal, its like the menu background partially disappears anyone else notice this?
Yeah, its on the bottom right corner of mine sometimes. Not sure what causes it. I've also had my lock screen dissapear. It was just not there one day, then it came back like a week later.
I recently recieved my Xperia S back from Sony today as I had the yellow tint issue. That seems to be gone 'fingers crossed' but it seems like I now have a more annoying issue
The bottom right of my screen is less sensitive than the rest of the screen. For example when unlocking my phone I find it very hard to get the unlock icon from one side to the other. It gets to about where the camera Icon is and then it goes back to where I dragged it from. It take me about 5 attempts to get it unlocked.
Also when draging icons on the homescreen to the far right position on the homescreen dock and I can have some trouble picking up the icon or moving it there.
I've found a part of my screen that doesn't respond at all! On the app drawer the icon next to the sorting option (Manage Applications button) doesn't respond at all. I've tried clicking it over 20 times and nothing has happened. If I drag the status bar down over the icon it doesn't recognise that my finger is touching the screen and then the status bar falls the the bottom of the screen.
I've tried restoring my phone and trying a newer firmware but the problem is still there. Did they do something wrong when they put my phone back together? Is there anything I can do rather than sending it back to Sony?
Hey guys,
This morning we've had three totally different Android phones come in with identical issues, within about a minute of restarting the phone it becomes almost totally unusable. The only things that work are the pull-down notification tray, and the physical home/back/multitasking buttons. The rest of the phone is just totally unresponsive. You can't open apps, or scroll the home screen, or if you jump into settings from the notification tray you can't tap on any of the settings categories or scroll up/down.
Anyone have any idea of what's going on? Is this widespread?
Hello. So strange. A friend's HTC U11 Android phone boots up normally and just as the UI starts to load in, the entire screen is taken over by nothing but black. Tapping on the screen unveils a white dot where the tap is occurring (I'm wondering if they messed with Developer options and caused this?). The hard buttons still work. It operates in the background. Swiping down from the top edge doesn't work. Opening the task viewer doesn't work -- you can't do anything. Pressing and holding the power button does bring up the restart/power off pop-up. Gestures work (tried three-point multi-touch swipe downwards and a permissions request for HTC Connect popped up). These pop-ups happen over the black fullscreen. Other than those, nothing works.
For the split second that it loads the UI upon boot-up, I've tried quickly swiping down from the top and tapping on the Settings gear icon, however even though it goes into Settings the black fullscreen takes over just the same.
Tried wiping cache. Tried booting under "Safe Mode" -- nothing helps.
Now, the phone is not rooted, and it's set up with encrypted unlock at boot-up, so that makes things even trickier. Perhaps there's a way to install some sort of app that clears startup apps/services from Google Play remotely using a desktop computer on the account? Or it won't work until the app is first opened on the phone right? Maybe TeamViewer Mobile somehow and see if the phone's screen shows up on the connecting PC?
Tried plugging in a USB keyboard/mouse. I see the mouse cursor move around on-screen. Tried different keyboard shortcut combinations and nothing seemed to work. Any ideas in terms of keyboard shortcuts I should try?
Any ideas on how to salvage the data without losing it by rooting the bootloader? It won't respond to ADB. HTC Sync Manager doesn't see it either.
Anyone else having trouble with gesture navigation when using full screen apps?
Sometimes when I start a video on YouTube in full screen mode, switch temporarily to a messaging app and then come back to the video, the gesture navigation is all messed up. Lower part (short side of the phone) of the screen doesn't register touch so I can't get out of full screen in YouTube and the thin white bar is not where it should be on the longer side (which is now supposed to be the bottom), but instead it is on the short side which should also be my "back" gesture now.
This is very annoying as trying to swipe 'back' now gets me to the home screen and I am unable to hit three dots or the full screen button in YouTube.
I am not using auto-rotate, but I am using Sony Side sense and obviously gestures to navigate. Rotating the phone 180 degrees and back seems to fix it. It's like the phone forgets how it should be oriented when I switch between an app that is in portrait mode and landscape mode
Anyone else out there with these kind of issues or am I alone with this?
I've also experienced this and have found no fix. If I go to recent apps and re-enter the app from there a couple times, it fixes itself but that's all I've found.
