[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunameltsalad:
I bought this tablet off Amazon's Warehouse Deals. It came to me dinged and scratched up, but operable. I noticed the touch screen was a little off and would report false touches occasionally, but I didn't think it was anything to worry about. Like a kid in a candy store, I raced to get a new ROM so I could optimize this thing. In the process I unlocked the bootloader, rooted and installed PACman ROM. Ghost touches disappeared--gone for like 3 whole days. I'm ecstatic, and falling madly in love with this tablet. Then I notice the ghost touches coming back after the 5th day I have had it. Now its showing about 3 ghost touches almost constantly in one vertical line (in landscape) on the right side of the screen. Pretty much totally inoperable. I have scoured all ends of google, and most of the time it spits me out here, searching thread after thread of nothing but "RMA it". My questions are:

Is there any fix to this besides shelling out money for a new digitizer? Is that the general consensus that the digitizer is the root of the problem? I know I'm able to return the product, but does anyone know if Amazon is going to give me grief over an unlocked product that was a scratch-and-dent deal anyway? Any way I can re-lock the device? I've seen multiple threads with replies saying "lol didn't you read the blah blah? no way bro", but these were posted a couple months ago. Maybe something new has come up. I guess I just feel sorta rooked because I bought a defective piece of hardware, and now I can't get a refund just because I modified the software.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
Same thing happened to my brother's tf300t. He returned it as defective, but I guess you could replace the digitizer. As far as I saw, it was a hardware problem, so it requires a hardware fix. Sorry :(
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunameltsalad:
Was it through amazon? Do you know if he unlocked it?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
Yes it was through amazon. He had unlocked it and installed TWRP and CROM or CM i dont remember.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsmyways:
I got a similar situation in the last two weeks. The problem I have is that my TF300T is keeping rebooting by itself. I've googled it and people say most likely it's a hardware issue. I am trying to find a way to see if the device can be reset to factory condition so that I can return it for repair. Looks like we are on a same boat. :) Hopefully I can find a way to do so.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunameltsalad:
Just an update on my issue, in case anyone else stumbles across this particular problem. So far I have gone almost a week with no ghost touches. I popped off the back of the device (three guitar picks did the trick), and disconnected the digitizer ribbon cables and reseated them. Problem vanished. My best guess is that the keyboard dock puts odd pressure on the device. That mixed with rough handling is bound to cause some problems.

It could be the power button is jammed? I know mine is really touchy (all I do is tap it with my stylus and screen turns on/off. Good luck!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DatacomGuy:
Thank you. I just got mine from Groupon as refurbed.. (they did a ****ty job, apparently) Ghost issue about 2 days after getting it out of the box. By then already unlocked and flashed CWM.. sigh.

I'll try your fix tonight. Any chance there is an image of the right connector/ribbon?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunameltsalad:
Hopefully the image quality isnt too bad. I took an exacto knife and gently pried up the black foam squares, set them aside and worked my magic. Hope this helps. Just be careful with the ribbon cable (duh). Hope this helps!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DatacomGuy:
Thank you! I'll try this adventure later this week.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DatacomGuy:
Did this today.. So far, 20 mins on it, and no issues. Typically took about 5-7 mins before. So, crossing my fingers this is gone.

THANK YOU! I can go back to enjoying my tablet :)

Im in the same boat with this Ghost Touches Issues, and its getting worse, sometimes im working at college and this Ghost appears and the tablet gets almost unusable, Only the Keyboard Dock saves me.

Please if you can give me more detailed instructions i think i would be brave enought to do this surgery to my tf300t, merry christmas!

i just noticed that when having a ghost touches attack, if i put pressure con the tablet, lime trying to bend it, the touches vanish.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DevsAwesome:
I also have the ghost touches but it seems to only happen when the screen is dirty. As soon as I clean it off, they go away. Would a good screen protector help with that? I may go ahead and try taking off the back and messing with it.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DatacomGuy:
I thought mine was fixed, but doesnt seem to be. I technically didnt remove the connectors.. I was nervous, they are WAY fragile. I simply unlocked and pressed firmly on them to attempt to reseat them..

Problem seemed to go away until I used Chrome. Chrome is what seems to trigger odd behaviors for me. I may try another browser and see if it still happens.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenderbasher:
I've been dealing with this off and on for about 8 months; asus HAS to be aware of it as my tab has been back twice for this issue (out of warranty now) and I take advantage of their complaint form every month or so.

Here's what I've been working off of (based on personal experience/experimentation):

Re-seating the cables might help for a day or less, but isn't a permanent fix. I even went as far as strategic pieces of tape to hold the flex cables in place and tape across the connectors to encourage them to stay closed.

The first time I popped the back off the larger of the three flexes (with the silver wrap) had partially worked out of the connector on the driver board. Re-seated it and problem disappeared for about a day.

The large copper heat spreader was basically spot contacting the CPU and really wasn't touching the smaller ancillary chips (unit had been running warm for a few months, thought that might make things wonky). I pressed heat shield back down to ensure adhesion, and slightly molded the copper around each chip. Ghost touch gone for two days, unit way cooler running than before.

Here's the interesting one to me. Tonight I noticed that even just hovering my finger close to the screen I can get the 'touch dot' to show; this got me thinking about static. I held the tab in a way that at least one finger of one hand was touching the screen, like towards an edge (out of the active area) while using the other hand to touch the screen. Seemed like one hand was grounding the screen, like a charge couldn't dissipate from the surface.

Isn't this a "capacitive touch' screen? Could it be a matter of grounding?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItsDuckie:
I too purchased this tablet and dock from Groupon about 4 weeks ago or so as a manufacture refurb. My tablet does the same thing. After about an hour or so use most of the time it starts randomly acting like the screen is being touched. And it appears to only be in the upper right corner area (kinda where the lock screen pattern show up when you unlock it) in landscape mode. Sometimes it may take a little longer of use before it happens. It happens regardless if the dock is plugged in or not. I have figured that if I lock the screen and wait a few seconds and then unlock it. The ghost touches are gone for a while. I first began thinking it may have been a OS issue and hough about rooting and putting a custom rom on it. But from what I have seen on the web it doesnt seem to matter whether its rooted or not. So should I RMA it back or has any one had permenant luck with reseating the cable?

Thanks
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
I'd try reseating the ribbons. I kind of doubt it would solve the problem since it's a refurbished with a latent defect. Bad ribbons would strike at random but do not wait for a while before acting up. Look at the glass surface under a magnifying glass and bright light. Hairline cracks cause this after the tab heats up, but you can't always detect them. RMA would be the safe option unless you're really pressed for time.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunameltsalad:
Ghost touches are back. Noticed I had alot of them when my storage was full. Used a previous recovery (same ROM, just earlier date with less junk installed) and it cut down the frequency of them happening. This is so weird.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stenc55:
I had those ghost touches when 4.2 roms started (CM and AOKP and all of the rest of them. Then someone, I don't remember who had compiled rom with decreased touchscreen sensitivity and ghosting was gone. I think they started with PAC or AOKP, I really don't remember.

Then I went to 4.3 and 4.4 roms and I didn't have one single ghost touch since then. I do noticed sometimes when I hover finger over screen it is registered as touch, but ghosting by itself didn't occur on those roms.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyrst:
one cent fix

I have an ugly, but effective solution working on my pad right now. It has been in place for about three or four months.

Holding in landscape mode, pulled the bottom left corner back slightly and inserted a penny between the back and the lcd. This put enough torque on the screen to kill all of the ghost touches and it still fits into the keyboard dock. There is an ugly gap where the penny is, but it is now fully functional.

Hope this helps some of you
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f69m:
Since I replaced my touchscreen, I am seeing ghost touches occasionally. Or the touch is slightly off, so I can't pull down the quick settings menu for example.

Using the power button to lock the device and then unlock it usually fixes the issue.

Actually, didn't have any ghost touches, since I did a reset using the tiny reset hole: power off, find something small enough to go into that hole and hold it down for a while. Don't press too hard. Not sure, how long you need to hold it, I tried about one minute to be on the safe side. Maybe that can help others too?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
I've seen that sometimes, but really rarely, as in less than once a month. Maybe its an Asus thing. :(
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunameltsalad:
I know I am throwing alot of possible fixes, but I noticed popping a corner of the back cover off seemed to make them go away immediately. For how long this will work, I am not sure, I just did it. I am also unsure how good this is for the device, but I have unlocked the bootloader, and I bought it used (my first and main mistake) so I can no longer return it. Just throwing some temporary fixes for those who don't feel like messing with digitizers and all the gobbledygook.

EDIT: OK. So I have been battling this for a long time now. I have come to the conclusion (in my case anyway) that when I take the back cover completly off, they go away, so it has something to do with the back case and pressure somewhere that is causing this. The main problematic area is the bottom left of the screen in landscape. Right now I have the bottom left corner loose and the only corner that is completley latched is the top right. The HDMI port is latched and the headphone jack area is latched, but other than that, the case is pretty much unlatched. I just had the cover off and, with the tablet on, I released the latches (forgive my lack of actual terminology) on the two digitizer ribbon cables and the screen went absolutely nuts. This is also on the bottom left of the tablet. What gets me is that when the back case is completly off, it never happens. I can torque the screen as much as I want and nothing happens. Only when the case is on is when the touches occur. My next move is to try and shave down some of the little contacts and stickouts (im really sorry for not knowing what the real terminology) that are molded into the back of the cover.

[G2 Accessories] Elnrik:
I have these and find them quite enjoyable. Voice quality on the other side has never been a problem, even in light to moderate wind. Furthermore - the Klipsch application from the play store gives you a fair bit of customization for controlling button actions, opening apps, etc. I also know it works/is compatible on the LG G2 VS980.

http://www.klipsch.com/image-S4A-headphones/details

I use Rocket Player and found the sound to be balanced on the Flat EQ preset. If you crank the bass, I've noticed the low end won't distort even at high volumes, but that's not how I like to listen to music. It was fun to test it though.

Anyway, these get a 9.7 / 10 on my scale, especially considering the price.

These are excellent as well, but I didn't care for how they fit. http://www.headphone.com/headphones/etymotic-mc2.php

Hope it helps.

I just updated from 4.4 to 4.4.2.

The "OK Google" hotword detection was working fine (in both the GEL and the Google Search app if I accessed it via the app icon) before I updated, but now the ability seems to be lost no matter what I do.

I've double-checked the following -

My system default language is English (United States).

In my Voice Search settings:

a) my language is also English (United States).

b) Hotword detection option is checked.

c) In my Offline speech recognition > Download Languages settings, I've English (United States) pre-installed (no different from in 4.4).

In short, I simply haven't changed any settings that might have caused this problem.

Anyone having this same issue, or know how to fix it?

UPDATE:

I figured out what happened - it was Pushbullet that caused my problem, not 4.4.2.

Apparently their "Notification Mirroring" feature (which is quite awesome) under Accessibility settings somehow gimped Google Search's hotword detection. Here's a link to someone else's thread where this problem had already been discovered last month(!).

I only found out after Pushbullet themselves acknowledged the issue in their app update description on Google Play.

Anyway thanks for all the suggestions and comments.
