I had replaced my touch screen and again I reinstall the software but still some touches are malfunction occurs at certain times anyone help me plssss
Sounds like it might be a battery problem. To trouble shoot this issue follow these steps:
Turn on "Show Touches" in developer options. This will show you where the glitches are happening on your screen. These are called "Ghost touches" or "Phantom touches". Pay attention to where the touches show up and check to see if that part of your screen is abnormally hot. If so, this might be caused by a hot battery.
To check to see if these glitches are being caused by the battery overheating, turn your phone off and put it in the refrigerator until it is cool. Then take it out and turn it back on. If there are no screen glitches, it's safe to say that this is being caused by the temperature of the battery.
Sometimes a replacement battery can fix this issue. I would try that as your next step.
Note that you should only refrigerate your phone for a max of 7-10 minutes or you might break it. :laugh:

It have happened to me 3 times already, and I've only had my Diamond for 3 weeks...
When I leave my device charging over night, in the morning the display looks completely scrambled / distorted and the only thing I can do is a restart... Luckily it boots up normal again.
Am I the only one with this issue??
Btw... I've handled my phone with care & not ever dropped it or had it near any moisture, I guess this might be a harware issue!?
Dun worry owziee....
I having the same problem too.........
nothing but a white static/scrambled screen, right? Happens many time to me...the only thing i can do is re-insert the battery (holding the power button to restart doesnt work).
what about soft reset button ?
Sof reset fixes it. I think that the 3D chip is overheated, because it happens when I play sensory overload (a 3d game) too.
But strangely not when I play Call of Duty 2...?
Alteast we could get it back to normal with a soft-reset, kaiser had similar problem where only a hard-reset was possible after the same situations i guess..
Regards,
Carty..
i had a similar situation after i used my device to send a text, turned the screen off then turned it back on immediately, i had some strange screen with all different coloured pixels and it looked broke as hell, but i merely just pressed the power button on and off and it was fixed again :S
Yes i have the same problem and have no idea what is causing it. The most frustrating thing is when it happens my alarm does not go of... I would realy like a fix for this.
phew! It has happened once with me, and frankly it scared me a bit. Removed the battery and then it was Ok again. Weird behaviour. I don't think it has anything to do with heat tho.
I had the same issue too and I had to perform a soft reset fer it to work but after a week the touch screen of mine stopped workin no idea why i had to give to the service center fer repairs they told me it wud take a week to repair it rite now I am without a diamond
Something like the screen shots below?
I've had this problem for quite a while. If you disable Touchflo3d, you will not have this problem at all. This issue only concerns the 3d gpu.
I've since updated to v1.93 Olinex SPL and its more stable now, thou I still get it once a while, especially after a long period of not touching the phone (e.g. when sleeping).
It's been almost a week since my SGS got wet. The phone works not that bad, but it has a few issues. Anything I could solve by myself? I can't really find a trustworthy service around my area. Or at least maybe you could tell me what components might got corrupted.
The phone sometimes starts with green screen made by thousand pixels, then slowly changes into white and when I click the main button it's fine and I can enter my pin code.
The colors of the screen are a bit faded. Something like 256 colors. I can post a video if necessary.
When I want to enable the black screensaver it starts blinking from screensaver to blocked screen, 1-3 seconds every blink. Sometimes it's fine, but only sometimes. Also, I can post a video if necessary.
I can call and text only when the phone is set to only GSM mode and packed data is off. When in auto mode or packed data are on then it I can't call or text and ofcourse I can't use the internet without wifi.
When phone is turned off the battery drains very fast.
Thanks for any help in advance.
I seems your screen is damaged, you need to get that repaired.

just yesterday my SGS got in sink i dried it in rice for about 9 hours and now its completely functional. so maybe your water damage is bigger then mine. anyway you should go to service centre because your screen already damaged so unless you have one more amoled screen and know how to replace it. and other issues u have is because of hardware problems... Your shined way is to SC
Thank you for your replies.
The screen after more time works better, just that blinking still bothers.
One more question. That fast battery drain while the SGS is turned off and goes from 100% to 10% of battery in few hours - is it more likely to be a hardware issue or the battery itself?

Perhaps its hardware problem because I expirience battery drain also... its because water damage.. I'm sure also my home button died in next day..

I have recently purchased this phone via swappa and haven't had any issues prior to this and that has been three weeks (other than a light leak).
The issue that is happening is the LCD will not turn on. When the phone is unlocked via knock on or power button you can move your finger over where the lock circle would be and feel the vibrations showing that it does register the touch. Then usually I would just hold the power button till it rebooted and this would sometimes fix the problem, on a side note the boot LG logo and boot animation do not show up during this time simply the lock screen would randomly appear.
That is problem, now on to what I tried to fix it. I have put on an entirely different rom and the problem persists, I have also flashed a different kernel on the stock rom with no avail. I at first thought it could be due to a faulty proximity sensor, but the last time the screen was on I checked it with sensor box. One way I have been able to reproduce the problem is after locking it putting it in my pocket and waiting around five minutes, this then will make it so the LCD does not turn on ( Which makes it seem like it has something to do with deep sleep). Also something I just found since I was actually able to find the power off button, the screen also won't turn on when the phone is off and plugged into the charger (this makes it seem like hardware issue). It seems like as long as I keep the phone from going to deep sleep the LCD will turn back on.
Some of this makes it seem like a software issue other things make it seem like a hardware issue. I just was wondering if anyone had any ideas or if I need to buy a new screen, if the mobo is bad, or if I could fix this with software. Any and all ideas are welcome.
Thank you all in advance.
Hi,
Last week I used to be outside with much rainy condition.
Though it never got totally under water, many times it's screen got wet with substantial rain drops.
Slowly, phone started misbehaving with following symptoms,
1. Around 10% of left side of touch screen doesn't show response. I enabled show touches from developer option and when I try to touch left side, say "a" letter in keyboard, it doesn't show touches and pointer jumps immediately to left edge.
2. Many times, I am not able to unlock phone as no touch are detected.
3. After unlock, many times though I am not touching phone, it shows couple of pointers (I enabled show touches in developer option to trace this) on left edge. It keeps moving resulting in erratic behavior, say screen zooms in and out, some icons clicked automatic, deleted automatic etc.
4. Sometimes I noticed that capacitive buttons are also not responding.
For all above, I have to off (not complete switch off)and on the phone. After few attempts, it becomes responding except point 1 above.
I have reflashed ROM (Vivikat) just to ensure it's not software issue.
Now it seems hardware issue with following two possibilities...
1. It's matter of some moisture in phone only. I have to try hard to dry out all moisture and phone will become responding.
2. Digitizer has some issue and may call for replacement (I don't want to do that...:crying.
Can you guys share your views/experience and advise?

I just had touch screen issues but not with water or rain. It was the CPU. Almost whenever I overclocked it, I had touch screen issues. Both misbehaving and not behaving at all. Change the CPU frequency and restart the phone and see what happens. :good:

Thanks for your reply.
I have never overclocked my device.
However, I tried to underclocked it if by any chance, it can solve the issue.
But issue still there.
A small portion of left column on touch screen seems not responding or giving erratic behavior.
Does, water can damage digitizer to that extent that can not be recovered even after drying
Or, I should keep hope and wait more before I go for digitizer replacement

If the digitizer is damaged, it is probably done. But if you can open the open, check the digitizer and see if there are any things stuck on it. My recommendation: ask an engineer to open it and clean it with the special spray they use to clean electronic parts. Maybe the water has had only a side effect and it will be fixed by cleaning the digitizer.

I loved to hear your words, as I have still hope for resolving issue without replacement of digitizer :fingers-crossed:
I'll find some engineer to get it serviced....and post update.

You're Welcome buddy! :highfive:
Just picked up a second hand S4 Active. At times, the screen gets jumpy. It looks as though you are trying to swipe between screens. Also, it will at times go unresponsive. Touching the power button to turn the screen off, then turning it back on with power or home, fixes it.
I am going to take it apart to see if there are any signs of corrosion, and make sure the LCD connector is tight. I really don't think it has water damage, because the stickers are white. I suppose they could have been replaced.
I saw some youtube things that said a swelled battery could be the culprit, but the battery is not swelled at all.
Any ideas on this? It's a flicker - it jumps around. Turning the screen off and on fixes it, so I'm not really sure what the deal is.
Thanks much.
Should have added - it's on stock 4.4.2, if that matters.
