Hello, recently I replaced my phones screen. And now I have a problem, when typing, it sometimes presses the letter 2 times, making it really hard to type. I believe this is due to screen being uncalibrated. Does anyone know how do I calibrate it?
same problem here. have you found a solution yet?

Hello
2 days ago I got a T-mobile MDA from a friend. Only the MDA and a cradle. It had not been used for at least half a year. At first I could not make it work as it did not react to the stylus on the touch screen. But after some resets it slowly came on, and was fairly working (slow sometimes)
As I wanted English SW, I downloaded one and installed. After some time the problem came again, and I decided to switch back. Then it stopped working again.
Sometimes I can get to the calibrating touch screen, but then it stop reacting.
I read about similar problems on this website, but I cannot install the file tpenable.exe until I get into operating system, and can use the touch pad.
I tried with a couple of ROM-versions, but it seems to have no influence. Still, to me it feels like a SW-problem.
Anyone have some suggestions?

Follow up
Here is a follow up on my problem:
I discovered that if I press hard at the lower quater of the touch screen, sometimes it works again. This points more to a HW problem.
I took the MDA apart a couple of times, but could not see anything wrong. Does anybody know how the touch screen technically works?
I noticed in another post about someone with a similar problem. Do anybody know what exactly he was soldering?

Hello. I have issue with the touchscreen on my X10. First of all this phone is already 3 years old, and I'm the second owner so problems might arise from age. But everything else works fine though.
Anyway, the issue with touchscreen is, when the screen get wet a bit (whether it's from sweat or moisture or something), the touch screen gets jumpy. It does respond to my touch, but it reacts to the different spot of the screen, making typing and scrolling impossible. Ghosting. Erratic. Something like that. Wiping the screen does solve the issue, but it's bothering. I've removed the screen film that came upon the phone, but it still happens. Shouldn't touchscreen phone respond touch well even if the screen is a bit moist?
Any help is always appreciated. Thanks before. :good:
I too have this problem, any solutions ?

Hi!
My phone got a broken screen, but I got a replacement device from the insurance.
Trouble is, after a while with screen on the screen seems to become hypersensitive - it's nearly impossible to enter text through the display keyboard or just to zoom and move a webpage
After switching the screen off and back on again immediately it's OK again for a while.
Anyone else seeing this behaviour? I reckon it's a hardware problem, but maybe someone has a different explanation for this problem?
I have a Redmi 5 phone. I had Global Stable ROM than switched to EU Beta. Currently on 8.7.19. I had a problem on both ROM. Randomly my phone slowdowns. Or at least the screen I don't know exactly. I have to press the screen harder and the response can take 1-2 seconds. Locking and unlocking the phone solves it. What can I do to solve this problem?
I have reported the issue. Please confirm it. We need official answers because many people has this. http://en.miui.com/thread-3446668-2-1.html
OK! I'm pretty sure now it's a hardware issue! Flashed TWRP recovery which also had screen freeze problems!!!!!
Than flashed an old firmware 9.2 something and flashed LineageOS over it. Guess what? SCREEN FREEZE!!! It can only mean one thing: it's a hardware issue. It's also explains why they ignore it: because they don't want to admit it! And because this much people has this problem we can say Redmi 5 is a FAILED PRODUCT. Xiaomi should call back this devices and give back my money immediately. But I think we are just ****. They will not care about it. Maybe only the service center can do something about it but it's a long and unnecessarily procedure. I think best option is to sell the phone and NEVER buy Xiaomi again and to stop recommend to anyone to buy it.

Hi! I have this exact same problem but I ruled out a hardware issue because every time there was slow to none response, if I turned the screen off and on again, it would fix it. I've been looking for a solution and after trying many, many things I've discovered the problem was that I was using the Full Screen option offered by MI, i.e. the option to remove the three main buttons at the bottom of the screen (Back, Home and running apps) and to control the phone with gestures. After going back to the classic three button style, I restarted the phone just in case and I haven't had any more response issues in two days, I think it was a success!!
I also faced this problem for months, specially, after I changed my display as I accidentally dropped my phone a few months ago. Sometimes the screen seems to freeze temporarily, but then -
- turning off and again turning on screen
- swiping the screen (bottom-top) with a little pressure for 1-2 seconds
- slightly bending the device
Any of this three work for me.
What I think:
It's a hardware (display) issue. My newly changed display creates this. But I am quite sure, when my device bends slightly this problem occurs.
I bought a Mate 20 Pro on preorder and noticed within a few days a seemingly non-responsive part of the screen that was an intermittent issue.
Basically every now and again (often enough it’s annoying but not every time) after I unlock the display I am unable to select any app icons in the lower half of the touchscreen. The top half is fine - the home buttons are fine but everywhere from the middle down is non responsive.
I assumed a hardware fault so amazon replaced it for me - and the new device is exactly the same!
Am I just super unlucky and have managed to get two faulty devices a month apart from Amazon or is something else causing the issue?
Thanks.
Think you've just been unlucky,nothing like that on mine
Fine here too. I assume you tested this as soon as you got the phone before installing any app / custom launcher?
Have you tried running smart diagnostic tests manual mode in hicare, there's a touchscreen display test.
Sent from my HUAWEI LYA-L09 using XDA Labs
I only noticed it in use after I used a custom launcher however I tried multiple launchers and saw the same behaviour.
I just did the HiCare test and it says normal. I did hard reset it the other day and it hasn’t happened since so I will see if anything else happens. I can’t say I am thrilled by the thought of another swap from amazon if it does happen. That’s super bad luck.
Hi how did it go after the hard reset?
I got the same issue myself but instead of being the lower half, my entire screen does not respond to touch. I've done a hard reset my self and i do run the stock launcher. Even though my screen still doesn't respond to touch now and then after unlocking the screen or receiving a phone call.
Touchscreen issue
Yup I get it annoyingly so as well! Often takes a "double tap". Pain in the ace!
