Right, the reason I have started this thread is, I see some discomfort using Back capacitive button. I am not complaining that buttons don't respond to touch, they do. All 3 of them.
Let me give you an example: I am playing with the phone, doing something on the screen. After, let's say few minutes, I want to go back, so I touch Back button, but it does not respond. I press few more times and eventually it registers. Some people would say "hit and miss" or "there is an issue with capacitive buttons". I say no, because I am touching it there, where I supposed to, also once it start registering, every time I press it, it registers (I have haptic feedback on, so I know it works). I have problems only, when I am not touching capacitive buttons for some time.
I hope I explained this well. I think this is, what in some reviews has been described as "hit and miss" or "capacitive buttons not register". Do you have the same problem? If yes, why is that happening? Is it software or hardware?
I don't have this problem because I realised that the most sensitive and best working area
for left/right button isactually in the inside space rather than exactly on those little points.
So once I press slightly to the middle, it works. It requires also a little longer press.
Ok, I will try that.
I do agree on the buttons. Probably the only thing to get used to, but one you do, no phone like it period! This is sick an amazing phone it is rediculous
The back button on my phone @ left corner is actually the best out of the three. and maybe I feel the same way about the middle "HOME" button where it registers little higher than the other two. actually I have hit it few times accidentally while I was trying to push the space bar on keyboard.
But every time I felt the haptic feedback, button worked.
I am happy with the performance of the buttons. It seems like they work like the power and eject buttons on the PS3. They respond when you remove your finger.

The only thing I have to get used to...
Almost no extra hits anymore...
One touch is most of the times correct registered :-(

Right, so by looks of it, there is no issue. Something I have to get used to. Thanks a lot guys. I also hope it will help future buyers as well.
I have not had any problems with the capacitive buttons so far and tbh i prefer them to hardware buttons like on the arc/play etc
No problems here. They are better than the one's on a Samsung galaxy s2.
I used to have a Nexus One and the buttons are similar to that, you sort of have to roll/slide your finger upwards on the button ever so slightly.
I barely notice it but I know what you mean.
I find that if you aim just slightly to the middle of the screen rather than on the dots then it works great

How can you be serious? I have both, and as perfect as the Xperia S is as an upgrade, its capacitive buttons are not as sharp and fool proof..that's my only gripe ...
Example situation of problem:
Right after finishing recording a decent length FullHD video, pressing home or back needs to be done repeatedly to register (MOST of the time).
Not a deal breaker, but I so hope this is software related..
I have the same issue but after one day of owning this phone im learning where to press to get a response first time

Well I started off doing the "pressing above the dots" thing, until I noticed you could also swipe them (I swipe from the transparent bar up)....now I'm used to swiping them and never have any problem
I'm liking the swiping method, its impossible to miss and well..it's kinda fun for some reason

Yeah, that works very well. Thanks.
I am just glad we have sorted it out and it turned out it is not a software or hardware issue. After reading some advises, my phone cooperates with me much better.
Hello
I'm wondering just how durable an E3D is, namely the touch sensors inside it.
Recently I dropped the phone twice on a hard surface, and started noticing strange behaviours, firstly with the touch functions and secondly with the phone always freezing up.
Not always, but sometimes when typeing, it's just a mess, the capitalizer writes a letter, multi letter feature is inaccessible, basically none of the characters work like they were ment to. The only solution thus far is to lock and unlock the phone, which fixes the keyboard and the touch functionality.
Sometimes I can't unlock the phone because the ring moves 3 times shorter of a distance, opposed to when its working properly, and if so you can forget about dragging icons into the circle to answer a call, it just won't go in all the way.
Oh and the freezes, completely, none of the touch sensitive buttons or the screen responds, sometimes the screen is the only responsive part while the buttons are completely dead, a lock/unlock is needed to fix it short term, also the buttons led go out, becoming none responsive, sometimes the led is off, yet I still get a vibrational feedback (Have it enabled) So all these irregularities are new, it never happened before dropping the phone! The only touch sensitive related issue I had before, from time to time, was the unlock pattern gesture not tracing, instead of sticking to the first circle I begin at, it moves to the next I drag my finger over. (also fixable by relock/unlocking)
During this post the keyboard wasn't acting up thankfully, but its getting more and more irritating to lock and unlock the phone while typing a message to someone.
First I was suspecting a virus, or low memory causing this behaviour, but after thoroughly cleaning the phone and acquiring more memory (by closing apps) I was still having the problem.
Any idea how sensitive the components are if subject to repeated shock from a distance of 1.5m or 5ft?
What are my options here if the irregularities persist?

Don't know how durable it is...but I too face the unlock pattern issue sometimes, IMO it is a software issue .. Also if you take too much time to draw the pattern the screen goes off (even if you keep your fingers touched)......

Here's an update on this issue...
I've noticed that the upper left corner is the cause. How?
Well, in landscape mode on my homescreen, trying to pull the notification bar down (then from, the bottom left since were in landscape) will instead (without any animation) try to go to full homescreen view where I see all my 7 homescreen, but it does it in a zoom like feature, where the more I pull it to the side the more it will zoom in until final animation frame is reached LMAO.. I'm actually crying...
The sensor might be off, in that corner of the screen as dropped phone tend to land/hit the corners first...
I should ask an xda dev. to cook me up a "sensor status check" app to check if any of them are functioning incorrectly..
I don't know what more then that I could do?!..

Hey guys, thought I drop my final verdict on this issue.
As you all (who read this thread) knows, I was having an irritating problem with my E3D, namely the touch functionality of the screen was messed up, but only in a certain area, where I thought the sensors got discalibrated from the drops the Phone went through on hard surfaces.. I have used an app called "Check My Android" and the feature "MultiTouch" to identify the spot on the screen, where if I touched, a daemon took over my phone and started all kinds of wired behaviour such as item triggers on the other side of the screen and freezing, even slow mo zooming of the homescreen, one touch passive zooming of webpages and so forth..
Now with that app, I was certain that everything with it is not in order, but I didn't have the slightest clue on what to do about it. I ran across a comment about the built in utility diagnostics tool code for the Phone while browsing on U2B (YouTube), so by typing "*#*#3424#*#*" (which starts as you enter the lasts star) will basically allow you to test every aspect of functionality of your phone, where i also went for the screen draw test, and found myself strengthening what I already thought was the problem "an area on the screen messing everything else up" as I pressed within this area I found a straight line jump, from the "dead zone" to the bottom middle of the screen, as I was drawing circles, it drew a straight line there as i went over it with my finger every time. Than browsing on after that code's discovery, for "EVO 3D touchscreen problems" I ended up on a video offering similar problems..
Now the breakthrough or rather yet the solution came from that videos second and only comments, saying how "Disabling the ScreenLock of the Phone would fix that problem" and so it did!!! I'm not having any disturbance while typing, flipping pages touching that area or anything out of the ordinary, otherwise the Phone was almost unusable. It let's me to believe its a software miscoading flaw, but it wasn't always like that even though I used the screenlock since day one, so I'm not entirely sure what's up? other than its fixed...
I hope this fix can relieve others just as it did me
And the diagnostics code is also useful.. should be stickyd :]

Never mind that, it was only a temporary fix, as it started doing it again after a while...
Try calibrating your screen via display settings if you haven't already. Also are you having just touch screen issues or are reboots part of the issue as well ??

It's screen issues only, no reboot problems yet..
I have calibrated the G-Sensor several times...
In another post someone replied, that its a grounding issue, and trying that once it did give a result, but then again, I'm not having that, unusable level of the issue I was having, after a hard reset.. so I'm not really sure weather this is a grounding problem, an app caused problem, all I know is that I still get an extra touch input on the screen, when I approach the upper left corner.. with every multi touch app I test..
Have you tried that app called touch screen booster ??? If not give it a shot. Set the multi touch point settings to two. Then apply then start the service and select run at boot. Then reboot and see if it helps any. Also a way of trouble shooting to find out if it is a rogue app is to Uninstall all of your apps. Then see if you still have the issue.

No i have not rooted, i was waiting for the official ICS before i root.
So I'm on the Stock... everything lol
This is my second 3D. The first one stopped responding to touches. Sprint replaced it for $30 even though I bought it from wirefly.
In my own experience, I had the exact same symptoms. Only difference is I didn't even drop my phone. After a few months of owning the phone it started to show the aforementioned symptoms occasionally. Eventually, it just got worse. After a lot of forum searching, google searching, etc, it turned out to be the digitizer that was faulty. I had tried everything from flashing different ROMs, Kernels etc before I was finally able to narrow it down to a hardware issue. The digitizer seems to be an issue for a lot of 3VOs from what I understand.
Luckily I had a friend who replaced the entire front housing of my phone so I wouldn't have to exchange it since I was unlocked on HBOOT 1.40. At the time I was afraid that, had I gotten it replaced, I'd have to deal with Hboot 1.50 and HTC's half ass unlock method. Either way, after that it was like a brand new phone but better cuz I didn't have to redownload apps, etc since the motherboard and software weren't touched at all.
Hope it all works out for ya... G'luck, brothah!

Shame I hadn't seen this thread sooner, I could have saved you a lot of time. I am on my 3rd 3d. Basically any fall which lands on the touchscreen will cause this problem.
What makes it worse, I was rooted with my last phone, and when it happened, I had to unroot before I could take it in for repairs. The touchscreen was so badly damaged with this problem, I could hardly do anything.
TL;DR get a case that will cover the screen and protect it from flat on touchscreen falls.
Is there a way to "re-calibrate" the screen or change the sensitivity?
I have found that when I need to press a button near the corner of the screen, (like on a friendstream widget to refresh), I usually have to press it several times or use my pinky.
I'm thinking either the "alignment" is off or the sensitivity needs to be tweaked (maybe my fingers are too big)
When I first started typing on the Inc 4G, I noticed that sometimes it seemed like it was missing letters I was typing. As I started using it more, I realized that my hand was barely touching the corner of the screen next to the recent apps button, since I was used to using a small phone, the original Incredible. However, once I realized I was doing that, I stopped doing it. I have to consciously make the decision to stop every time I notice myself doing it. I've only been using it for a couple days, but I'm doing it less now, so hopefully I'll stop completely soon. I don't understand why it thinks the corner of the screen should be touch sensitive, because it's almost a full centimeter away from the recent apps button.

interesting, I'll have to keep an eye on that.
but I'm trying to hit a small button on the top right corner of the screen.
I have the issue I mentioned before when I'm holding the phone in landscape mode with the capacitive buttons on the right, the base of my index finger where it meets my hand barely touches the screen about a centimeter above the recent apps button. I don't use the FriendStream widget, as I don't use social networks at all, but if the button is too small, it may be that your fingers are too big, but more likely you are touching the screen somewhere else. I only figured it out when I took my right hand away from the screen and was still typing with my left and the keys were working much easier for me.
Try taking the hand you're not using to press the button and put it on the bottom of the phone to hold it steady, then, using your other hand, only touch the screen where the refresh button is with your largest finger and see if it works. It may seem like really basic troubleshooting, but sometimes that's the way to go.
Failing that, try to go to Settings -> Language & keyboard -> HTC Sense Input -> Advanced settings -> Calibration tool
It only lets you type in portrait mode, which is kinda dumb since most typing is done in landscape mode, at least for me. It would be nice to at least have an option to do it in landscape.
Anyway, I hope one of these solutions helps.

no this isn't true.
you don't have to press hard, you have to press in the correct spot...
this phone's display is tough to get used to.
prime example, trying to exit out of a single app in the stock task manager, is very tough, and always opens the app instead of hitting the x, it's annoying, but it's worth it, IMO
but here is a vid showing that I have zero difficulties going through the set-up.

Well, I was having difficulties using it. I don't have fat sausage fingers, and I even tried using my pinky finger and pressing directly on it and everything after the first dot just didn't work unless I pressed very hard on it. Now that I've used it once and calibrated it, it works much easier doing it again. Perhaps it was just that the factory default calibration for my phone is just that off.

I don't think that there is a specific process to calibrate the number pad. Does that area of the screen work for other things, like pressing a link?

Ok I'll post over there. I think it's the screen itself and not so much the calibration of it. It was that whole section of the screen that was acting funky. When I went to an empty home page and dragged an icon it would force drop it at that point as if I we lifting my finger up. And now this morning it's fine. Maybe knocking it around over night helped

The thread has already been moved, so don't worry about it.
anyone having trouble with turning the screen on? its like 1-5 doesnt work. im deliberate with my tapping. off works no problem. but turning the screen on does not work every time. please let me know if this is just me.
Seems to happen most often after the screen has been sleeping for little time (like over 2 mins).
I have had this issue several times. Sometimes I'll sit there and try it 3-4 times in a row, then it will magically work. I usually try and explain it away, thinking perhaps I just double tapped too quickly in a hurry.

Yess exactly. I keep thinking maybe I messed it up. Maybe a part of my hand was pressed against the side bezel and screen or something. To the point I'll lat it in my flat hand and trouble tap it like a science experiment lol. Thanks for the reply. Anyone else??
Mine occasionally does that but I have one of them Zagg Glass screen protectors on and I think that's all it is. I played with it for a few prior to putting it on and it wasn't like that.

I'd say I agree with this. So is this a problem or do you have to double tap at a certain speed or in the same spot twice?

Generally it comes on if I tap once, wait a beat, and then tap again. It will sometimes come on if I grab the phone and the side of my hand happens to touch the screen twice. And sometimes it will come on if I tap it twice really fast, so there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.
Also make sure u don't have a finger even close to the proximity sensor. That will keep it from coming on. On my g2 if I had my finger even at the top of the phone next to the sensor it would not work.

I've had some issues with it mostly assuming it was a little lag or whatever not a real problem to worry about, but I have noticed that it likes the taps to be close together on screen. So tapping in the same place more or less twice works best. So. Two taps being an inch apart it doesn't like. This may be some of your issues, sloppy tapping not close enough together may cause issues. I'd say it really doesn't like anything more than a half inch apart.
