Help with transformer prime issues - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hi
So I received my Prime a week ago and I noticed that the bottom right corner and the top right corner (the clock and application button) would randomly activate without me even touching the screen. At first I thought it was just a problem with ICS (may still be) so i waited a while and it steadily got worse until it hit a point at which it was happening constantly, I tried to wipe the tablet and the issue stopped for a while and then picked up again. I have not used a screen protector so issue will have nothing to do with to much application liquid, and I keep it in a zippered case whenever I am not using it so general water damage also shouldn't be an issue.
I could really use some advice or any tips you can give me I have looked around and there are a few others who are having the same problem but I haven't found one with a solution. I just want to know if its an ICS issue or a hardware issue that i will need to return the tablet for.
Thank you for any help you can give me

Erratic touch screen? Please help!

I have a T-Mobile Pocket Phone Edition,
It's had a rough life but as kept going for over 3 years now.
For the last year I would have to realign the screen 2 or 3
times a week but over the last few months it keeps getting worse.
Sometimes the screen won't respond to anything anywhere,
then after I tap it a few times boom works fine.
Sometimes I'll tap on the “Ok” and the “Start menu” will activate.
Sometimes drawing a line up the center of the screen will end up
shooting all over the screen.
And sometime it will work perfectly!
I thought the problems were to erratic to be hardware so
I hard set after awhile it started again,
So I hard set and installed a different ROM after a coupe hours
the problem was back.
Also sometimes the align program will get stuck in a
loop that doesn't end.
I've searched but can't find an answer? Anyone have an idea?
I've already taken it a part once but couldn't see how to get
any further after I toke the back panel off? Please help!
WOW nobody? So no one was heard of this problem before?
Can anyone direct me to directions on taking apart the Wallaby?
Thanks <><
It's a problem with touch screen. You should check (and fix) it.
Maybe it is necessary to press well screen to the motherboard. (Sorry my english).
Ok, Can you tell me where that connection is?
Thanks
Toke everything apart, found the connection, cleaned everything (w/ screen wipe)
put it all back together. Still have the touch problem and now the backlight won't work!
I've found if I press the unit in my hand the touch panel works right,
I don't think it's a lose connection to the main board so I think it must be
one on the main board.
If anybody thinks they want it for parts let me know! :?

[Q] My gTab suddenly has a red hue to the entire screen

It even is skewed red during the Viewsonic boot screen. At first I thought it was a fancy low-power warning because it occurred last night when the battery hit 15%. But a full charge and a reboot didn't fix it. Neither did booting into the loader and resetting my battery statistics. Other than the horrible screen coloring it works just fine.
I searched the forums and found a number of people with green-hued screens but nobody complaining about red. Am I looking at RMA-ville?
Is it red-hued on every screen such as the recovery menu? If every single menu screen is that way & a factory reset or NVFlash or reflashing a new rom doesn't fix the issue, I would venture to say it's a faulty screen.
try the "Love Tap"
I remember reading this thread a couple of days ago http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878624&page=2
some people were apparently experiencing a blank white screen which was being caused by a loose connecter in the tablet.
Check post #20 on the thread I linked and someone even posted a picture of it.
Your issue *might* be related to this and thus I would suggest trying the "Love Tap" method.
Just hit the damn thing a couple of times near the bottom right corner and hope you get lucky.
Same issue
Had the same red hue issue with my G-Tab. At first it was just if I held it a certain way or put pressure on specific areas. It got progressively worse to where I had to hold it or put pressure on one area of the back or screen to get it to go away. Contacted Viewsonic customer support, they issued an RMA. I just got the repaired tab back today. No surprise, but it's been reflashed with Tap-n-tap. I guess that gives me an excuse to try the new release of Vegan or maybe cm7.

I just had the same problem with the red hued screen and did the "love tap" on the right hand corner and it did the trick and now I have the normal black background. What a great site!

[Q] Rare Touchscreen Issue: Faulty Horizontal Line

Hey guys,
My screen woes just won't go away. I dropped my phone a few weeks back and cracked the screen. Ordered a new one from eBay (Item number: 260818538062) with the faceplate and everything. Had it installed but then started noticing that SWYPE wasn't working as well because my words would start breaking midway. Installed Yet Another Multi Touch Test and when trying to paint realized that there is a very evident line on my screen that isn't working as well. That was one continuous movement of slow up and down jestures but as you can see, the touch sensitivity is much weaker as well as the screen sensing a second touch at some point.
What can I do? I will gladly take the thing apart and clean the connectors.. if that will help. But somehow am inclined to believe that the issue lies with the screen. Is there a software recalibration fix that exists perhaps? Anyone experienced the same thing and walked away with a working solution?
Please help and thank you in advance.
(EDIT) I've added a second attachment where I started going around the outer edges working my way in, there's definitely one faulty line in my screen!
(EDIT2) Found a native Android touchscreen test (white and green) thanks to a member named BryanNL in a different post. Basically had to dial *#0*# and chose it from a menu. This test claimed that I passed but you can see that it is not made to tackle an issue like mine.
Bumping.. Anyone please.

SGP311 Phantom screen touching :)

Hi all,
I just picked up the SGP311 today and I've noticed if I'm holding it in one hand from the side (landscape) I'll occasionally get lots of phantom screen touch events, almost like its bending under it's own weight and registering random touches. It doesn't seem to happen if I'm holding the tablet in two hands or resting it on my chest or lap, only if im holding it from the side in one hand
Has anyone else experienced this? I'll probably take it back tomorrow as faulty and take a replacement but im just wondering if this is a common problem with this tablet?
Ta!

The model number is SGP311A1/B, after I first turned it on it completed the latest android update from Sony.
I'm pretty sure it's a faulty hardware issue, I can reproduce it quite reliably now. I was only really concerned if it was a common problem that might occur again in a replacement Other than that I love my new toy, I've been using the Asus TF101 for the last two years and it's been getting a little sluggish, the Sony is beautifully smooth in comparison

I came to this forum for an unrelated reason, but ran across this thread and I'd like to add my own experience with the OP's "phantom" inputs.
I tend to use the tablet on landscape with my left hand holding the tablet. My thumb is well within the black border but it seems the screen senses my thumb sometimes. At times I'm unable to scroll or drag properly (ie an opposing input is stopping the action) and if I move my thumb closer to the edge of the tablet, the problem seems to go away. I haven't bothered recreating the problem, it just occurs once in awhile and it hasn't gotten to the point of annoyance. I've only been using the tablet for about a week
I have the SGP311 and running stock 4.1.2
I have this problem in some 4.4 custom roms. And weird thing is that it sometimes registers touches even when tablet is on table and screen is of... So, is my tablet breaking down or is there anything else I can do?
Try to search for flex/flexing in this Forum.
It is a problem with the torsion, because of the flat design.
I had this exact problem after I unpacked my device, and was also worried abut this being a HW issue. I then upgraded to 4.3 (10.4.B.0.577) and haven't seen this issue since. I hope that means it's gone, but I've only been using this device for less than 2 days so it's too early to tell.

Redmi Note 3 screen unresponsive

Hi hoping someone can help. Had my phone around 3 weeks now and all was great until yesterday. The screen just stopped reaction to touch mainly on the right hand side but I don't think that this is a hardware issue and the screen works everywhere when rotated. I tried a factory reset and problem is still there. I have never rooted a phone in my life so keep it simple haha. Thanks in advance
Any help guys? How can I add a screen shot on here to show what firmware it is running?
I have not had this problem, but I did have a similar problem on another phone before where part of the screen went dead , I think it's related to moisture try putting the phone somewhere dry or blow a fan on it for a few hours see if the touch comes back.
if you have it in a case try removing it
