hello, i have a problem with my xperia u, i cant text properly with it, some times the letter cant be pressed(im using the 3x4 keyboard not the qwerty, but even qwerty keyboard cant be pressed the letter sometimes). my girlfriend experienced it on her xperia u too 2months ago, but its under waranty that time so the service center did repair it successfully. but now my phone's waranty is already expired, we took it too service center too, but they did not succeed on repairing it, they said the touch screen must be replace. i dont want to think this way but i dont believe it because my girlfriend's phone has been repaired with a very similar problem, now i think that they said that to me so they can get more money if i will agree to them to replace the touch screen. does anyone know how to fix this? its different on other not responsive screen problem, i check the service test on touch screen and there is no broken line, its just hard to press sometimes on texting but there is no problem making a line. factory reset and repairing via PCC and SUS is not solving the problem(both on mine and on my girlfriend's phone when she is experiencing the problem) thank you very much in advance to everyone.
If it's a hardware problem no one here can help you fix it.
Lots of touchscreen problems woth U and Sola, I would think Sony should fix them free of charge.

actually i dont think that it is a hardware problem, because like what i've said, my girlfriend's phone experienced the exact problem that im encountering right now, and they fixed it with i dont know what they did but they didnt replace anything, meaning its only a software defect. if i was remembering it right, they are talking about software calibrate or something like that but im not so sure about it. maybe they dont want to fix it with free charge now thats why the saying that it is a hardware problem for me to pay. i really believe someon could help me here, i would be very thankful and im thanking now in advance.

Hello, i bought xperia p in t-mobile, i had this problem from beginning, when someone was calling to me i couldnt answer, because screen didnt respond to touch, i could only push power button to end call and after this it worked, but this happened to me many times, which make this phone unusable. I debranded to soft 6.0.b.3.184, and the same problem occurs. I wanted to send this phone on warranty, but i didnt find t-mobile branded firmware(or it isn't needed for warranty?).
I had this brand before debranded:
LT22I/MOBILE PHONE/T-MOBILE PL (POLAND)/BLACK 09.05.2012 1263-1947/R5E WORLD LT22I T-MOBILE PL 1263-1947 N/A

I have the same annoying problem.
Same here. Actually, it happens quite often that the screen doesn't respond. Most of the time it can only be resolved by rebooting. I always thought that it was because I use a third party keyboard Swiftkey which was causing this.
I also have this problem and work out with the reboot (power + volume) as suggested [email protected]

Happy thought...I try to change the keyboard for a while...Let's see if he still does
same problem
I have the same problem, but I don't use Swiftkey so that's not the problem. I've already tryed some settings changes, reintstal system. Nothing helps.
Yes I have that problem sometimes...it can be a software bug...had yhe same problem in my arc in ICS...

whenver this touch problem occurs
I clesn the screen with cloth and it works fine.

I had the same problem with ICS, but i downgrade to GB. First I did the "sunbath", and works, but some apps started to crush. So I decided to go back to GB. Until now, it works flawless. I lose a couple of functions, but it's better than the "sunbath".
UPDATE1: After a couple of weeks the problem came back. Anybody, got a solution other than throw to the garbage the phone?
UPDATE2: Well, I really don't know what makes appears the touch screen problem again, but since I install GB, I got only once that the screen didn´t work and only for a short time. I've been using for a couple of days and I didn't have any trouble at all. I'm guessing that is like a bug software problem, but if someone find a final solution, please post it.
Hey!
Hey guys. I also have the same problem. My service test in touch screen was so terrible. Also behind delete button in keyboard. Lower part right side of the screen. What shall we do?
Additions.
Haha. I forgot the attchmnts
same problem
Same Problem here to.
Anyone know something about this problem?
Anybody got a workaround?
Thanks
Another one with the same problem, mine in the low right side of the screen. Im using the glove mode otherwise its impossible to use it. Somebody with JB, which disables glove mode, has resolve the problem??Im asking this because while its not responding, I restart the phone an enter CWM, and there, its responses perfectly.
So, somebody with this problem, has flashed the any port of JB and resolve this issue??
ok, I´ve tested with JB and it became more responsive but also having the problem.
I left the phone with direct sunligth and now it is ok WTF!!??
have you tried calibrating it? there's an app at the play store if i'm not mistaken..
I have tried everything but 1 thing worked. Sunbathing your sola will recalibrate touchscrren. I dont know how it work but it sure does the job. I'm afraid i have to sell my phone cause i dont want any problems. Now i'm using galaxy s3 mini

SunBathing Works!!!
Hi, Sunbathing really works as a last effort for Xperia Sola
It fixed mine and the time needed for your phone under the sun is approx..1 hour
Dont worry about the battery
Hi !
Need some help and some guidance from the members regarding a serious issue with my Xperia Sola
The main issue with my Xperia Sola is that the screen freezes 2 or 3 times a day on various situations like when i am browsing on the internet or just browsing thru menus and or even when i write a text message. A random freeze i can call it! The screen freezes and looks like when you're watching a 3D movie without glasses. it's a bit..i don't know the exact term to decribe it but looks exactly like i said. So, after that it becomes unresponsive and the only thing i can do is to restart the phone using up volume button + start button at the same time! Then, it's coming back to life and...i am waiting for the next **bleep** freeze again!
The phone is upgraded to the latest version of android 4.0 with the Latest available software: 6.1.1.B.1.54. I allready performed an repair thru the pc companion on my pc and also tried SUS but the problem is still there.
I don't know wether is a hardware issue or a software issue!
Any ideeas?
Thank you!
Might be hardware issue.
Does I happen on clean firmware with no apps installed other that come with stock?

Likely the GPU, makes no difference if it's GPU CPU ram or anything else that's on the mainboard they are not going to fix it just replace the mainboard.

holy sh..! i guess that would be expensive, replacing the motherboard and stuff !
i will send it these days to the local sony service if you trust that is 80 % a hardware issue!

Well I'm not an expert, but since it happens after flashing clean firmware as well it seems to be some kind of hardware issue even if it's a loos contact.
Won't be cheap question is how exensive.
See if it's worth you repairing or buy a new phone.

Yeah man, clean software, nothing but the stock firmware on it and keeps on freezing. Some days he's behaving ok. I mean ...what am i saying, not a day goes by without one or two of those freezees! sometimes during a call! :/
Yeah, got the same advice from someone! I'll see if it's worth repairing! I really like this phone
I'll keep you posted ChikeD and thank you so much for reply!

i never had this issue
try flashing a Stock FTF and see if ir still happens, if it still happens i think you can get a free repair under sony warrenty as this is likely an issue not caused by user wear

Hi guys,
I had a Sony Xperia Z Ultra for more than two years, and recently I encountered an issue on the phone that when I press the power button, there's light from the screen, but there's nothing on the screen. I looked up to some solutions that told me to factory reset the phone, which I did with the help of some screen mirroring software. However, it did not work. Is there any other way that I can solve this problem. Thank a lot!
P.S. Sorry for my poor English if there's any.
Help please!!

It sounds like a hardware fault, you'll have to send your phone in for repair to Sony (if available in your country and if you're under warranty, unless you wanna shell out a few bucks). That's just my opinion but if a software reset didn't help it's probably a device defect like i said.
