Thanks I can't see it being something on screen but will give it a wipe done here in a minute. Also tried the factory reset seemed to help but still getting in same frequency just not as badly. will see if the cleaning doesn't work I'll take it back and replace it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dbiggss:
This is the biggest annoyance that I have as of recent.

I have particularly oily fingerprints which causes smudges constantly.

I love the sensitivity of the TF, but if there is excessive smudging, the residue will register as a screen input - Wish the sensitivity could be adjusted.

Weird things happen when I need to clean the screen... I.E. I will be using a browser and use a single touch to scroll down, but it will zoom in/out instead; the long press menu will show up in a random spot persistently; -or- the screen will be completely unresponsive.

When this happens - I turn of the screen, clean it, turn the screen back on, and I'm good to go (note: sometimes I cannot even see any smudges where I am having issues).

This happens to me FREQUENTLY when i use the tab outside during humid days. I am thinking a screen protector may help, but still havent gotten one to try it out.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] NStever:
I had this same problem before the touch screen completely stopped responding on me.

For mine it only happened after waking it up from sleep mode though. When I turned Timeout to Never the ghost touching stopped.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frentraken:
Well tried as suggested the cleaning of the screen and all that but it still did it so took it back to the store got lucky and they still had one left, and exchanged it. New one hasn't had any issues at all. Thanks all.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] NStever:
I just took mine out of the box for fun (it was packed up for rma) and when i turned it on the touch screen worked. The ghost touching stopped to. But i still have a strip from top to bottom on the right side of the screen that registers two touches . So ill probably still send it in for a replacement. :(

Flashed Kings alliance rom r6 & only show 1x all the time on notification bar. Updated radios to see if that would fix it. Still no 3g. Updated prl & profile. Still no. Flashed newer version of kings alliance r6.2. Still only show 1x. Wifi works & so does 4g. Any ideas on what to try next?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mazda:
I wouldn't go on a radio/pri flashing spree BUT that's just me.

Try to flash another ROM such as Sprint Lovers 2.2

(don't forget to wipe factory settings in recovery and do the usual Nandroid if you plan on coming back to Kings Alliance Rom)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=830153

If you don't get 3G on that rom then you properly messed around and flashed an outdated radio or PRI............if that doesn't work then unroot the SOB and take it to the Sprint store, let them deal with it...hahahaha....GOOD LUCK bud!

[Milestone 2 General] nopain9nogain:
I'd been using the MS 1 until the MS 2 appeared and I thought it was time to upgrade. The reasons I chose MS 2 to be my next phone were:

- The screen : MS 1 has a really good screen even it's not the Amoled or something so I thought MS 2 would have the good screen too.

- Qwerty keyboard : I love Qwerty Keyboard and I know that MS2's Keys is better than MS1's.

- Games : MS 1 plays almost games perfectly and when MS2 has double of CPU and RAM it would play games double as well as MS1.

- Custom Rom : MS1 has tons of custom ROM and one again I thought MS2 will have may custom ROM either.

However all those things have changed after I bought the MS2. It's not even close to compare to MS1, It's worse. MS1 was a good phone and it did a very good job supporting me in work, study, entertain when the MS2 only make me mad.

- The screen is not good as MS1. Sadly but it's true when I compare it side to side with the MS1.

- Games : I can't play my favorite games because of the Multi-touch problem so the extra CPU and RAM is... useless => Funny.

- Custom Rom : no custom Rom with the locked bootloader, and I have to use the phone with the laggy Motor Blur and tons of junk apps.

After 2 months using it and seeing no hope from the Fission Rom, I had to replace it with the Captivate. I didn't sell the MS2, I don't hate it instead I love it. I hate Motor and feel sorry for the MS2, it could be a good phone but Motor didn't do it. I totally lost my trust on Motor just like with Sony when I upgraded from the Xperia X1 to Xperia X2. I couldn't believe that I make a mistake twice.
[Milestone 2 General] stanley_opt:
/pat

My experience is similar, from MS1 to MS2, but I was fool to ingnore CM ROMs for MS1 until I bought MS2, otherwise, I would not have

on the other hand, MS2 is much better at least on Multi-task, using MS1 with CM7, I need to count how many apps I have launched or it might suspended for more than 30 seconds, on MS2, it's better

So, I am looking forward to Unlocking that MOTO promised(but with no due date), and selling the two phones at the same time, when one is sold, I will keep the other, for they give me about the same (overall) experience
[Milestone 2 General] inheme:
At least you can use CDMA phones such as HTC ones. In my country the only radio available is GSM, so I'm stuck with MS2, Galaxy S and Xperia x10 ( and now atrix ).
[Milestone 2 General] kkocyk:
Thank you both. I almost bought that phone. It`s look real great, it has GPU processor, and all I wont, but now again I don`t know what to do. I hope that there is perfect phone for me like TYNT2 flew years ago :P
[Milestone 2 General] maiklover:
Actually, there is no custom ROM such as CM7 or MIUI

You can try the UK SBF to get a better performance

And try to use Titanium backup to freeze the blur service

It may help you to get a better MS2

I think the multi-touch problem is caused by MOTO

Other product like Atrix also has this problem
[Milestone 2 General] eami:
Thank you for this post, it helped me decide not to upgrade from milestone 1 :rolleyes: Maybe if the bootloader become free, if not the nextone I probably get is the milestone 3. Unfortunately there is no (real) other QWERTY option in android other then milestone, all the other are thicker :(
[Milestone 2 General] anothadave:
its better to decide for yourselves Eami and kkocyk, try and get a demo in a shop if possible and have a play with it. i almost completely disagree with everything in the first post. i found the screen to be vibrant, clear and one of the best ive ever seen. even now after 5months im still impressed with the quality of the screen and i prefer it over the milestone 1 screen any day.

ive no idea about a "multitouch problem" but could be down to different firmwares??

remember that twice the cpu speed doesnt necessarily mean twice the performance, anyone whos had a pc and upgraded will know that theres an ever decreasing benefit from faster cpu's.. game performance would be more affected by the gpu anyway. but ive yet to find a game that it doesnt play fluidly.

Theres an interesting set of benchmarks between the droid 1 and 2 here (theres not much difference between the droids and the milestones, the hardware is near identical so the results should be very similar)

the droid2 is almost double that of the droid 1 in the final test. 24fps vs 39fps.. (if i can find the app ill run a benchmark myself to see how it compares)

http://dailymobile.se/2010/08/14/benchmark-tests-motorola-droid-2-droid-nexus-one-and-evo-4g/

i cant really comment on the custom rom situation as ive no interest in that type of thing, the standard rom does everything i require and i see no reason to muck around with it. but if youre after custom roms then the milestone 2 obviously isnt for you. i have however rooted it and removed the "Junk apps" with no problem. i used titatinum backup to freeze them. this has helped improve battery life and id recommend it.

personally, i absolutely love the phone and would whole heartedly recommend it to everyone who wants an android phone with a hardware qwerty keyboard.
[Milestone 2 General] M@jkel:
Well, to be honest with you, I'm just tired of waiting for literally ANYTHING custom, with all motorola sh*t stripped out from phone. So I put out my phone on local auction page few days ago, and today, luckily, my Milestone 2 got itself a new owner. Going to switch to Desire HD, phone that has an astonishing support. Goodbye to Motorola, that was my first and the last phone from you guys.

[Milestone 2 General] sh7218u:
I was thinking about buying MS2 as I'm looking for the full QWERTY keyboard on the Android, been a dedicated user of Nokia Communicators until now...

Seeing the replies and experience with MS2 here, and learning more about that motoblur thing, I'm not so sure that MS2 would be the phone for me. Still, can't pass over the iPhone appearance of HTC Desire and similar phones to actually buy one, and the lack of hardware keyboard is another issue. The search goes on...
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
1. MS2 is not a bad phone in any way.

2. The fact that it does not fit your needs does not make it bad.

3. The fact that you did not do proper research before buying the phone is the reason why you did not like it.

4. MotoBlur can be taken care of easily and has nothing to do with it. I have not ever used any of its components even though I have had the phone for 6 months now.

5. Looking at the market of QWERTY phones running Android MS2 is actualy the best you can get, and it is a darn good phone.
[Milestone 2 General] nopain9nogain:
1. Did I say MS2 is a totally bad phone ? I said "It could be the good phone but Motorola did not do it" so the bad guy here is Motorola.

2. It does not fit my needs that's right and I just say it not and why. If I really want to make it bad, should I keep it or I just sell it right away ?

3. What proper research you talking about ? Did anyone here talk about these problem yet or I'm the first one ? I got mine a week after the release day and at that time there is nothing that I could do a... research. Btw, how the hell I know there would be a multitouch problem ???

4. You are right but would a blurless ROM be better ?

5. Yes, It's the best QWERTY and that's why I bought it just because the QWERTY. Now, I have the QWERTY but also have a lot of problems.
[Milestone 2 General] Liori:
Whoa calm down guys. I am also disappointed by the MS2 and struggling whether selling it or not, provided that the price is way too low.
[Milestone 2 General] w0ndersp00n:
So much negativity in here...

So yeah, you hate the fact you bought the phone, so yeah other people actually like the phone... Deal with it.

If you really hate the phone, no one's keeping you from buying a new one. And if you'd like your money back, well good luck with that. Either way, it's not like this thread will help anything.
[Milestone 2 General] mkioshi:
I'm totally satisfied with my Milestone 2. Only thing that bothered me? I had to switch to Zeam Launcher so that my fav game (Dungeon Hunter 2) had a normal frame rate. No biggie for me, since my defaut launcher (GO) is full of widgets and has 11 home screens, my Zeam has 3 (games, social apps, system apps).

And I'm saying that in the past tense because after VM Heap Tool I don't have this problem anymore, even before I froze every Blur thing with Titanium Backup. And it could be just some bad coding from gameloft since more recent games (Sacred Odissey, Eternal Legacy) never stuttered even with a lot of things running in the background.
[Milestone 2 General] nurofenplus:
I also am very satisfied with my Milestone 2. I own a few devices like the phone 3gs and 4 as well as a Desire and Desire HD and the M2 always has me coming screaming back.

The hardware is even more reliable and of superior quality then my trusty n900. The screen looks as new as the day I unveiled it, the keyboard slide mechanism is just as firm as well and I have never had any tactile feedback issues.

It eats my business apps and playing fruit ninja is pretty damn smooth. It flip flops between my known wifi networks and 3G without ever being reminded. The last time I rebooted was because I thought I may have seen something odd happen but not very certain of it and then relise that I only every reboot it because the battery door and battery go holidaying on the ground for no apparent reasons but wait maybe I did drop it.

This thing has been a workhorse for 6 months and hasn't missed a beat. Sure a few os bugs and that blur rubbish but root the device and use TitaniumBackup to hide the annoying stuff and treat yourself to a paid launcher that has their own quality widgets and you are all set.

Milestone 2 Roms? Nope, not really and I do long for a truly AOSP experience but i'll live if one never arrives. It is a phone, a business tool, media device, navigation tool and social network control panel and it will still fulfill those duties just fine in another six months.

I wasn't happy at all with Motorola when I first purchased it and things haven't changed much but this is still a damn good phone (well, for me at least).
[Milestone 2 General] will5:
I was wondering the screen difference. My milo 1 looks better, but cm7 uses 24bit or 32bit color, so you will get better color reproduction.

I think screens even have the same hardware ID.

All other things, could be solved with custom ROM, but there are no developers atm.
[Milestone 2 General] rasecrmz:
I dont see it as a failure, its juts no so dev friendly. Thats the only thing that dissaponted me, m2 its not so popular, so it doesnt have developers interested in it.

The reasons I bought this phone was: Hardware Keyboard and the camera, and im very satisfied at the moment with it (i dont have any bounce key problem yet XD)
[Milestone 2 General] diditnya:
Maybe Milestone2 doesn't fit for your need, and can't be to make general oppinions about the product to the others...

[HTC Sensation] jparity:
I'm on the 200MB Unlimited data on TmoUS. With the same sync settings, I used to average ~ 3 MB/day using my HD2. After changing to the sensation, I am seeing more like ~ 10 MB/day.

To find out which app is draining my data, I installed Traffic Counter (Free from market) to monitor each app. It turns out that the top 4 apps that uses the most data are:

HTC Hub

Setup

Settings

Clock

It is also interesting to note that those 4 apps use identical amount of data daily. Therefore, I believe there must be some setting in Sense and/or Android that is allowing these apps to sync periodically...

Sorry for my OCD... but it bugs me to no end seeing things like Setup, Settings and the clock constantly sucking my data and wakes the phone from sleep.
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
Go into Account and Sync in the Settings menu and turn off HTC Sense Sync. There's also a shedload more stuff you can turn off.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gpw11:
Hello, I just recently received a replacement Milestone through Asurion to replace my old, water damaged one. To my surprise, the new one was pre-loaded with Froyo 2.2 out of the box rather than stock Eclair.

I was planning on flashing and putting a custom rom on it, but started having very strange errors where the screen would turn multi-coloured, the image would scroll up the screen, and/or would appear twice on the screen, covered in display garbage. All very similar to a display driver problem on a PC. I'd automatically assume a dsi error, but sometimes it will boot right into the error, making it visible on the boot screen/battery charge screen.

I never ran across this before on any of my custom or stock roms on my last Milestone and just wanted to check to make sure it wasn't a hardware problem before flashing the sbf...in case I have to send it back.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
That was how mine behaved before i lost partial functionality of my touchscreen. You are better off to get it changed.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gpw11:
Thanks, I'll look into the process for doing so. Was it an occasional thing or would it happen all the time?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Soxes:
Result of much DSI Errors are:

- Your Milestone reboots suddenly

- Your Milestone freezes suddenly, so you have to put your battery out

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcarlospr:
I have a 32GB micro SD card - when I go settings/storage/table storage it say Total Tablet Storage: 14.94GB and Available Space 0.91GB and if I go to the SD card I get Total space: 31.24GB and available space: 27.94GB.

My problem is that even having +/- 28GB available when I try to install anything I get a SD card or device storage full message.

So, believing was just an internal memory issue using Titanium backup I ran the move user apps to the SD card batch but I still get the full memory issue

Any Ideas???
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
That 14GB is /data and /sdcard. So if you're moving things from one side to the other, it's probably not changing anything.

What I would recommend is looking at both locations (especially /sdcard) to see what's taking up all that space - can you move anything like music or videos to your microSD (/sdcard2) instead? Titanium Backup is hardcoded to /sdcard, unfortunately.
