[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GentlemanBasdard:
After flashing the stock google (yukju) roms on my galaxy nexus, everything went fine for a couple of months and now I am getting weird haywire issues with my touch screen. Without me touching anything, the phone will act like a part of my screen is being touched, it will not respond when I am indeed touching it at times, the screen will flicker back and forth and generally act strangely. Then for the other 70% of the time it is fine. I have re-flashed all stock roms, did a factory reset, and the problem persists.

Is anyone else having these problems?

any idea what to do next.

After contacting my provider, they said they cant help me because I had unlocked the phone. I have since relocked the phone so I might try calling back and seeing if it will fool them, but I doubt it. Now that I have re-locked the phone should I try to deal with Samsung?

Any help appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikedyk43:
It sounds like a hardware issue. Most likely the touchscreen itself is bad. If you still have warranty or insurance coverage then bring it back to the store and tell them it is defective. By the way, NEVER mention that you have ever unlocked or rooted your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GentlemanBasdard:
Thanks for the reply. Im worried that, like you say, it is a hardware issue because I bought it used, and therefore will probably have problems with warranty/insurance. My carrier has already said that they wont help me with it so I would have to go right to Samsung. Any tips on dealing with Samsung? I have already returned to stock and re-lock the phone and I never rooted it, I certainly wont say I did anything to it in any way. Anything else I should be aware of? Will they even help me out since I wasn't the one who bought the phone in the first place?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikedyk43:
Although most manufacturers offer a 1 year warranty on hardware, I doubt they will honor it since you were not the original owner. Your next option is repairing it yourself. It took a look at prices on eBay and it looks like the digitizer (touchscreen) for a galaxy nexus goes for about $30 and the combination of digitizer and LCD screen go for about $150. I don't know how difficult it would be to separate the digitizer from the LCD on your phone, but $150 for the set is still better than buying a new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Guiding.God:
As has been said, it is probably a hardware issue - I had an HTC Desire S before my GNex and had the same issue with it, started all of a sudden. (The screen would go haywire as you said, almost as if a ghost was pushing buttons quickly - that's the best way I can describe it). Mine did not have warranty coverage because I had rooted and unlocked it but the HTC rep was helpful and said it happens sometimes because of moisture or humidity or some such thing and to replace the lcd/digitizer. Cost me a little ($110) but phone was as good as new after that, used it for six months before selling it and buying the GNex.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starskyrob:
Had one with screen lift. then a couple weeks later got a permanent phantom touch right in the center of the digitizer. Had to send it back to Asus being that I bought it at staples. Now waiting for it to get back. Anyone have experience with Asus RMA turnaround time?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nst6563:
if it's anything like their other products...expect a MINIMUM of 3-4 weeks.

My tf300 took 18 days round trip for digitizer issues.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmurphy0487:
I did the rma request 5 days ago and haven't even heard back from them. How long does was it before they responded? Or did you have to call them?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starskyrob:
Call them. Demand a shipping label. They didn't give t to me at first but I *****ed and then they did :)

Does anyone know if there is a hack or mod to disable the presidential alerts? I've never received one, but I'd like the option not to. Sorry if this was posted before, I didn't see it. Thanks for any answers in advance.
[HTC One S] neoseal:
Since it sends messages based on mobile service via text, i doubt there is any way to block the messages. It would be like a text sent from your carrier. I imagine you would have to contact your carrier and have to opt out. I personally would welcome the alerts, as long as they were important.
[HTC One S] shannonknable:
I figured this much. I just don't like that there isn't an option for me to turn it off. I could care less about most alerts that the president could send out. They have the one that warns about danger, so I assume that is different from what the president would send out. The Amber alert is the only one I care to have active. I was reading about it and they didn't say why you can't turn it off, only that congress had passed a law to enable the alerts and that they couldn't be disabled from your phone. Also, your carrier has to out into the CMAS program for now. Either way, thanks for the response.

Anything I should do to boost my performance? (Aside from rooting it). I searched around for a guide but most of them seem to require rooting.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockNrolling:
There isn't too much you can do to truly boost performance without rooting. Maybe try an alternate launcher.

Apex and Nova are both good and give you a lot of options. You can find them in the Play Store.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zexco:
Not really... if this thing is only marginally faster than the USA version (not Exynos), then the international is probably already better. In that respect, it's safe to assume anyway that Samsung will obviously release a way faster S4 anyway.

Also S3 was released a couple months back meanwhile this was released just recently and processor is only marginally faster? Granted, Apple only made it as fast as it needed to be probably

Yea,I don't quite trust that benchmark tool.

Anyways, cracks me up,I thought the benchmark whores on this site were bad. Man, this guys win one bench and they are going nuts. It was hilarious reading through the comments, all those guys last year were saying that benchmark don't matter and they are always incorrect now they are the most accurate tool in the world. Everyone knows benchmark are useless, I got my inside to benchmark insane numbers by tweaking just a few things. I want to see side by side comparisons, then a definitive conclusion can be drawn

[Xperia Play General] jahjah440:
I Just got a bad esn R800X on ebay for 45 dollars on Friday. This a pure gaming device, always in airplane mode and even dialer.apk deleted from system!

As soon as I got home I rooted the stock rom, debloated it. Then I got the bootloader unlocked for 20 dollars by alejsanddrissmo (man that sticker is hard to get off!).

After unlocking the bootloader, I installed Doom kernel and superchargered the stock rom. Installed setcpu so I'm overclocked to 1.2ghz when screen is on, and down clocked to 300mhz when screen is off.

I have experienced no lag what so ever these last 72 hours, besides the initial bloated stock rom.

I chose the stock rom because I like the clean gingerbread look as apposed to the other custom roms that mimic JB/ICS. Any opposition to my choice?

Some things I have to say about the complaints against this phone:

The controls (touchpad): after reading reviews about the XP, I thought the touchpads were going to be god awful. What I found was a pleasant surprise that is reminding me of a faux analog stick.

The thickness: I think that phone is actually a little thin for my hands. Slightly uncomfortable to reach the triggers. I plan on getting a extended battery so the phone can become thicker!

Battery: I have no say in the matter because my phone is offline all the time, but I have had about 10 hours of pure emulation on the battery (keep in mind that this is a used phone) with 52 percent left over. I just combined all the tips I've read on this forum so far and these are the results I get.

My complaints:

Triggers: I don't like the way the triggers angle down when pressed. It feels awkward compared to the triggers of a ps2 controller.

The screen: the colors are very nice, but the auto dim is very annoying. Every time I tilt the phone a little bit, the screen darkens.

Camera: I'll admit, I will never use this camera for any reason. But the front camera in low lit is God awful. I thought I had some kind of slow motion, special effect thing installed. Terrible, just terrible.

Speakers: Pleasing at low-med volume, but 16 bit tunes at max volumes literally make the phone vibrate. I don't know if it's the high pitched tones of the machine like music, but, well, bleh :P

/endcomplaints

Somethings I'm doing:

Using Big launcher. Made for old people and little kids, but I found the huge icons worked excellent on the xperia play, and it can be controlled using the game pad too!

Using a 8gb memory card: I found a us based seller on ebay selling 8gb Microsd cards for 4.50usd. On this card, I have every snes, Genesis, Nintendo, and Gameboy game installed with 4gb left over. I think I will have games to play for the rest of my life. Lol.

Sorry for this long post, but after seeing so many people leaving the xperia play scene, I just wanted to say I'm one of few actually joining. Also, I just wanted to add words to my new SwiftKey keyboard :)

Since u arnt it using as a phone, i extremely reccomend to go to 2.3.4 or dikeJ's 2.3.7 themed rom. and you can convert playstation iso's to apks with psxperia for maximum playstation gaming.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ares05:
Were you coming to 4.0.4 from gingerbread? If you are, then I suggest a factory data reset. That should fix the problem. A factory reset is always recommended when upgrading from Gingerbread to ICS to avoid the kinda problems you have mentioned above.

On the other hand, if you aren't coming from Gingerbread and wanna try the firmware from a different country, go to sammobile.com and download the firmware of your choice and flash via Odin.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] mcp2009:
After seeing the ego case with a built in usb drive i was wondering if there was a case that was the same but the usb drive actually would plug in the phone instead of the case just holding in the flash drive. I mean how awesome would it be to have a slot in the back of the case that you can slide a usb drive into and expand your storage and then take it out and plug it in to your pc? I thought of making my own with a otterbox and otg cable but I have to figure out a design first

[Galaxy S III Accessories] scarrmrcc:
the issue would be that any time you have the case on, your phone is feeding power to the OTG.

that means your battery will not last as long, and you have to remove the case (which would be plugged into your USB of your phone, and leaving it in OTG mode all the time) to charge.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mansa_noob:
Hi all,

Having updated two over to the new baseband (June 2011 to March 2012) and sticking with stock on one while using cm7 on the other, my experience has been as follows:

* battery life is the same. Cm7 much better than stock but then it's cm7. I went from Weapon to stock 2.3.4 and did not see a noticeable difference.

* GPS fix is a function of well written GPS.conf. I see a slight improvement in lock from cold start but nothing outside of normal variance.

So what was the purpose of the new baseband? To me it is now appearing to be just a date change in a field :D. (Obviously there are differences otherwise call audio would work without any changes).

Thoughts? Note that I had to subtract wishful thinking to reach my conclusions.

Huge signal strength boost on my end. My dorm I used to get no signal. Now I get two to three.

Sent from my paranoid Nexus 7.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] arvonn:
At least for me, the GPS was massively improved. GPS fix is not purely a function of well written GPS.conf.

On stock 21e/2.3.3 - my GPS barely worked. It was intermittently better on cm7.x - but it was still a POS.. rather .. GPOS (global piece of.. )

On stock 21y/2.3.4 - my gps was massively better, but over all it was like a whole new phone.

On 21y baseband + CM7.2 it works really well, and WIPER/A-GPS works as long as I have data connection.

There are also supposed to be battery life improvements - but this only affected Stock Rom, CM7 was not noticeably affected.

Furthermore, I find that the newer SIM.. TM9177 works .. whereas with 21e.. only the TM9073 SIM worked..

I have also found that my HSPA+ connections are slower - but more reliable.. e.g. now I get a solid 5 mbps down, between 1 and 2 mbps up - with 21e - I occasionally has 10 mbps down - but it was very inconsistent - it would connect/drop all the time - and not necessarily a function of signal strength (e.g. standing in one place the signal would vary a lot) . 21y just plain works better.

One other change - I used to be able to use Faux123 kernels on CM7, but now I can only use Stock CM7 or Trinity - the Faux123 drain battery among other problems. No idea.. it isn't a bad flash, but my phone went from tolerating Faux123 to absolutely refusing to use his kernels.

That being said, it is widely reported (without citations!) that there was poor quality control on the LG manufacturing of G2x.. so the phones apparently vary quite a bit as to what does/doesn't work. I would say my phone never ran 'right' on 21e.. but it feels 'right' on 21y.
