Screen touch acting up...

l337g0g0 — Mon, 30 Mar 2015 02:06:22 GMT

Ok so the screen seems hyper sensitive.
When i go to scroll screens it doesn't act consistent, sometimes it goes hyper fast the next screen and sometimes it moves with my finger.
Also sometimes the apps won't open when i click them, they look like they are being click but randomly open the app.
When typing with the key board sometimes after typing a few words the thing will bug out and I'll see these lines from the letter I'm picking and it will point up and do other letters I'm not press and sometimes even puts words in place of the letter i want, and when i go to delete it deletes and adds letters randomly until a few seconds and it calms down and works normally.

I took both my case and screen protector of and cleaned the screen and still acting up randomly.

Anyone have a clue why the screen and my finger are acting up?

Hi l337g0g0,

Can you boot the device in to Safemode and see if the issue continues, as this could be software related.

Safemode Boot instructions

let us know how you get on.

Have you turned on the glove mode in display settings?

I did safe mode it was working, i went back to normal and it's working so far.
I'll have to test over time as it happens randomly but after the restart it's looking like it might have fixed it.

I'll hit this back up if the problem persists.

Thank good sir...

EDIT: BTW do you also work for state farm?

This may have been a software glitch which was resolved with the Safemode boot. Glad to hear it is working so far.

Good luck.
