I'm having some issues with my DX2's screen, sometimes if I apply pressure around where the hardware buttons on the bottom are the screen will select something much further up on the screen. I assume it's something to do with my parts being to pushed together but I'm not sure. If anyone has any idea how I can fix this it would be super appreciated.
I've ran into a similar screen issues while on stock 418 OTA also had another issue. It was as if I already had a finger on the screen while using stock browser so when I go to touch it automatically zooms in and out. Even continues to do so even if I take my finger off the screen. Strangely I've enough never had these is on 2.34 tho.
DEVICES; MOTOROLA DX2, SAMSUNG GALAXY SIII (PRE-ORDER).

Are you on stock or a ROM?
I was on stock 2.3.5 and on CM9 the times it has happened.

Not that often but usually once a day. I believe it's a hardware problem with something to do with the piece right below my buttons and the rest of the phone if you know what I'm talking about.

If you're still under warranty from moto then probably. Otherwise, you would have to pay the replacement fee if you have insurance through version.

Hope this isn't too misleading.
I was having touchscreen issues to the point where the phone was basically unusable.
Read somewhere about sgs touchscreen booster fixing issues on other phones, but the guides wouldn't work on the 3vo.
After some research on xda I found out that the issue lies in the multitouch software, so, in sgs touchscreen booster:
Lower multitouch points to one. (from five)
This has done the trick for me, and gestures like pinch to zoom work flawlessly.
Let me know if this works and I'll edit the post to be more user friendly.

Mine has always been hit and miss with the apps. Like browsers. Opera mobile was smoother for me then Firefox and the stock browser was smoother and more friendly for me on certain sites.
Its a phone not a pc, I try to keep that in the back of my head

What exaclty are you referring to?
I'm talking about touchscreen issues like unresponsiveness, and phantom taps, to the point where the phone is completely unusable.

My phone had the same issue months back. I brought it into Sprint and paid the $15 fee for them to fix it (they thought they could just replace the screen and that would fix it). They replaced the screen, and said it was still having the same problem. They ended up giving me a "new" 3D, one that was returned within 30 days of the previous owner having it.
mine does this thing where it i can't use the far left of the whole screen. i'd say 30% of it. i can still manage but sometimes its like there is a ghost playing with my screen not letting me text lol.
i thought about taking it to sprint but my bootloader has relocked at the top. im not sure what to do. i thought of replacing it myself but i could risk completely breaking it, i think.
i tried this method with the sgs booster but it didn't do anything for me
My phone is completely unusable because of the touch screen. Unfortunately this didn't' fix it.
I've been having a quirky touchscreen too and just left sprint. They ordered me up a new phone and said the touchscreen was bad.

I've had this problem as well. As the digitizers have been known to fail, I ordered a replacement. However, right now I'm on CleanRom ICS and have not experienced the problem (and it was pretty bad before). Previously I had switched between many different Roms and always experienced the problem. So, I don't know if it is just a fluke that it seems to be working great now or what. It's made me question whether I should go with the replacement when it arrives, or keep my current phone.

Try a different one or an older version of Meanrom and see if that fixes it. If it does, then mention the issue to Mikey on the MeanRom forum.

In my post I had said I wonder if it's the "Rom's" doing it to the phones. therefore I meant plural, sorry for the miscommunication.

I misread. The OP listed only MeanRom 1.4, but the other did say roms. Does it do it on Gb based roms too? I've also seen a lot of digitizer issues from others recently so it can't be random.

That was me, one and the same, and yes I have tried GB ROM's with no luck, even complete stock is a no go.
Ohk nvm problem solved, a friend at the sprint store hooked me up with a free digitizer and screen, I'll be modding his phone soon, so happy I've never gone to a corporate store.

When in landscape my Note keeps switching back to portrait periodically. I am still on gingerbread (waiting on ICS from AT&T). its very annoying.
Anyone else experiencing this?

Did you try laying it on a flat surface and calibrating the accelerometer?

Yep. Went for the obvious. Doesn't seem to make a difference. Even tried the various orientation locker apps. Still wants to switch every few minutes.
I suppose I can just hold out until the ICS release from AT&T and see if the issue goes away. I am also downloading the ICS leak and debating whether just to take the plunge. I was a flash junky with my Captivate. I have been rather tame with my Note thus far.
Fixed the problem. Flashed ICS.

No denying that. Smooth sailing so far, though I goobered up root the first time and had to start over. Other than that its a true blessing this ICS thing on the Note.
Well at first it vibrated when I pressed power but that's it. Now when I plug it in wall/USB the light flashes about every 30 seconds and nothing else. Anybody every see this

any chance your battery is just too low to power it on? Can you leave it plugged for a little and see if it boots later or try a different (charged) battery?
Did both, no luck

If it did the same thing with a stock rom, it might be a problem with the phone. I'm using the i605 and I've been on beans build 10 and i have never had a delay problem.
How long is the delay usually?
The delay is almost un noticable. I would guess less than half a second. But there is a slight delay.

It's also well known and been asked a lot. Under display unchecked the auto adjust screen seems to help. Ultimately though it's just how the note 2 is and will (for now) always be there.

Well then even if that's the problem I guess we get to live with it. I know it's been talked about a lot here too. Never heard it was JB.
Oh well I'm far from important enough to need my phone so fast that a half second delay is gonna be a problem.

Thanks for your replies. I am not really annoyed by this. It only seems to do it when the phone has been at idle for a while. Its not something I would knock this phone for. This things a beast so I can live with a tiny delay. Haha. Thanks again and hope that maybe itll get fixed in either official 4.2 or maybe key lime

i got rid of the unlock delay by disabling the lock screen...been using my n2 this way for a month now. no pocket dialing or anything random...actually dont think i could go back to using a lock screen.
afaik it's an exynos issue. you can do a few things to get the most out of it, but the processor will always take a second to pull itself out of deep sleep.
