I had someone knock my phone out of my hand and it dropped and hit the floor. After putting the battery back in and restarting the phone, I found out that I could no longer swipe my finger down from the top of the screen to pull down my notification menu. I believe my screen is now out of calibration at the top and is not registering my touch. It does work in landscape mode. I reflashed my phone with latest version on ICS. Still not working, any ideas? Thanks

So the top of the screen doesn't work at all in portrait mode?

It is on, but does no register any touch on the top quarter inch of the screen.

Hmm.... Odd that just that small of a section stopped working. Pushing harder doesn't do anything?

No affect what so ever. I believe my screen has re-calibrated so the top section is out of the operating area. At least that is my thinking.

Hmm... I don't think it recalibrated. Maybe more like the digitizer was damaged.

I guess I will call Verizon in the morning and see what they say about sending out a new one unless someone has an idea. Thanks for the help.

Weird because after I changed my digitizer, now I can't swipe up on the notification bar and the screen looks perfectly placed. Are you running ics? If you are, go to developer options and select show touches and look to see if it actually registers on that area of the screen.

It does not show me touching at the top. It stops registering about a quarter of an inch from the top.

call verizon but if there is no physical damage, don't tell them you dropped it.
If there is physical damage and you get them to send a warranty replacement, they might charge you for it.
I will call them today but do I need to get my phone back to factory software? I am running a leaked version of ICS. If I need to take it back to factory software, how do I go about it? My phone is not rooted.

Anybody having problem where homescreen freezing?
Sometimes only way to unfreeze is lock and unlock screen.

Is this on your new phone. I saw on the other topic that you got a new phone for the same issues I have. A new. Phone is on the way but I'm worried that they'll send me a refurbished one with issues as well.
I have only had one Inc 4g. The one I had refurbished problems with was my incredible 2. Also my of Droid.

I had the same issue with my Rezound. I think it's a sense/ICS issue... I would try doing a factory reset or take it to verizon (as long as it's not rooted) and see what they recommend
I am getting this several times a week. It lives on the Sony charger dock but quite often will not wake and has to be reset o get it to work. I even get this when it's flashing that I have notifications.

Me too, since one week
Did you mean restart?, I do get the issue has well due to something in the background was ignoring the lockscreen or something but you can force power off.

No I have to put a paperclip into the reset hole for a few seconds before anything happens. Don't seem to lose any settings but it does then restart

Did you try a force power off (Hold power for a while)?

Yep it will not turn off or on, only thing that seems to work is paperclip into the reset hole

what firmware are you on and are you rooted?
Completely standard and on the latest version. No updates available when I check.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
if possible i would consider sending it back for repair.
i'm not sure that there is anything you could do your self to fix the problem at the moment.
my xperia tab has smiler issue like not responding to wake directly and might take longer some times but eventually does wake, without needing to be reset.
have you tried to run it completely stock?
without any adjustment to settings or adding accounts just like it's fresh out of the box.
Seems Sony know something about irony. Picked up the tablet tonight and there was an update waiting for me. We'll see how this version goes

My wifi keeps going KAPUT. I have to reenter the code if I reboot, or flash something.
Anyone got any thoughts??
Thanks

What rom are you on?
I suggest you flash this if running one of the stock rooted roms.

Mine also, I am sad to report. It is definitely an issue. Seems to be associated with open networks. When I'm on my home WiFi, no issues.

Hi everyone, I'm a tech for sprint, I've seen a lot of Samsung Note 3's come in to our store as well as our managers note 3 that have an issue syncing an Microsoft Exchange email accounts, we've tried re-doing the email account, as well as hard resetting the devices,, emails will sync for an hour tops. All suggestions are welcome!

Root the phone and flash a custom Rom. What email client are you using? touchdown wheels great.
Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk
Well I would love to root everyone's phone. But working for sprint, we're not even allowed to work on rooted devices so that's definitely out of the question but I'll try using the touchdown app, and they are all using the stock email application on the device.

I forgot to mention I have seen it in S4 devices as well as the new S5

Is it all the same type of account? Might be a problem on the server end.

The only issue I've seen with my Exchange account is an absurdly large battery drain...
If I set it on "push", my phone is constantly on. The stay awake time for the exchange service is more or less my uptime, minus my screen on time.
I just don't use push, and have no other issues...
Nope their all sorts of active sync accounts!

I know somebody with att s4 that upgraded to kk. He has same problem with exchange, very high battery drain. He tried changing settings and poll time but it still kills his battery. I'm wondering if the exchange program/service in Samsung kk has a bug that is s4/s5/n3. I wonder if there are email apps that don't rely on built in exchange app, that they have their own built in? Maybe this might save the battery? I don't know if k9 is good or not but I tried using it in the past. I'm sure there's others.
That's what I think, it all happened after the new wifi/hd voice update on the note 3. But it worked fine on the initial kk update. The one I'm still on and I have no problems lol.

I use exchange all the time. No sync issues and no battery drain with push. I would start asking if they know which version of exchange server is running to see if it is isolated to one version.

I use Touchdown on 3 devices and have used it for about 4 years with no battery problems caused by the application. Have you updated the PRL recently?
Sent via my Note 8
I don't suspect the prl, I think it's the exchange apk on the newest kk Samsung phones. It's happening on different carriers.
KK is installed on my Note 3 with exchange set 24/7 and no battery issues.

Touchdown seems to be the best fix, I've been suggesting it to everyone that has the issue.

Don't think it's a Kit-Kat issue. I am using exchange with push settings, no issues at all.

Or one can use the EmailGoogle and Exchange2Google pair of apps, and attain everything they need with one-fourth the footprint, free of charge, syncs perfectly, and can actually see subfolders of your exchange inbox.
The app you're recommending is terrific, but quite the beast and most certainly not the best choice for all.
It is, as noted, an awesome app.
