Mod edit, unnecessary comments removed...

try to disable autocorrect

Stay clear of franco, I find his work unstable and full of risky stuff. Can recommend just use stock where you donthave issues.

Also do a very clean fastboot flash and absolutely no recovering of app/data

next to this disable autocorrect/automatic space and such just to be sure is not that.

The fact you have it on two phones makes me think it really must something your doing/have done to phone.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Denisuu:
On my xiaomi m2s I was on complete stock and after a while my screen became unresponsive. There was a topic with a poll 60% of the users experiencing them. When I showed my friends the ghost touches on my oneplus they all said they had that once in a while with there Xiaomi m2s too.

Flashing cyanogenmod made the unresponsive screen go away and the ghost touches less frequent. When I needed send the device back to xiaomi's repair center I flashed everything back to stock trough fastboot and I could not even get past the pincode screen. Xiaomi replaced the whole screen with a newer revision and the problem is gone.

So i'm pretty sure that it was faulty hardware.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Denisuu:
On CM11s I don't see any reason to switch to an other ROM. The only thing i need is stock and root.

Ok you are right the ghost touches are gone and the unresponsive screen is better, but the ghost swipes are still as terrible. Try to type the letter A and P really fast. You will get apapapapapapappapa but when you try F and H the swipes go all over the place.

Solution Perhaps?

Guys,

For those of you who have the multi-touch issue, I know it is still an unresolved issue, however, having been using my OPO and almost pulling out my hair, by complete fluke / chance I stumbled upon a solution, which is working on my device (and I mean my PHONE!)

For the ones who are still facing this issue, check which theme you're using. I know this might sound silly, but do check.

If it is Hexo (OPO Detauls), please change that to Holo and you could retain the wallpaper, fonts, etc, but change it to HOLO!

Restart the phone, open YAMTT from Google Play Store, and you could run a check again, it should be fixed - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rn.yamtt&hl=en

Do report out your status / result after the check so that it might help others as well.

cheers,

M

I noticed that when I switched to an android L theme the touch was really nice, but just like after the 33r update, the touch screen plague comes back again.

On a side side note, One plus did a AMA on Reddit yesterday and it was the first time since the 33r update that the still admitted to touch screen problems. They said they are working with symantics for a fix and do not have an eta. I guess first step in fixing a problem is acknowledgement!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maddesire:
Interesting...

Coz when I had the issue after the 4.4.4 33R update, that was when the touch screen went bezzerk! After this trick of switching the theme, it seems to have fixed it.

I guess this is what makes the OPO truly unique! :D

Still a beast of a phone. My solace is that how much could we expect from a remarkable phone at half the cost off-contract and that too from a company that has been in existence only for the last 5 months, who're making serious waves in the mobile phone industry.

I do agree there are bugs, but going by the frequency of updates, the world is truly a sandbox for the 1+ to see it as a beta testing base.

It is by the faith of people like us who've made the 1+ happen, so let us hope for the best and anticipate the patches to being rolled out soon!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradm23:
I 100% agree other than the touch screen lol. N5 never had touch screen issue and was same price point. If they since the touch screen I will say hands down 100% best phone out there. Until then I tell people to shy away or wait to buy it
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maddesire:
I understand what you're saying. Not starting an argument, but come to think of it, the Nexus 5 is for the same price point with a slightly lesser config, more from the LTE bands (1+ being truly global), Higher storage capacity, bigger display, better speakers (albeit mono, we got 2!).

Don't take it the wrong way mate, just consider this as being truly impressed and happy with the 1+.

What you say is solid! If the team at 1+ could help fix bugs since the world is their beta team, it would make it a truly flagship killer with no holds barred.

Welcome aboard the elite team of OnePlus owners. It is still a unicorn out there

Actually it is an issue derived from synaptics' touchscreen digitizer.

ALL phones are affected. ANY rom will be affected.

This only works because of the reboot. If I reboot mine and it gets cooler then no issues, as soon as it warms up the increased latency picks up and the inaccuracies start.

Probably a hardware issue that can't be fixed.

Just got this mail from Oneplus Support:

"This issue seems to be a known problem we've identified as a software issue, and after strenuous testing and development work, we're confident that the next major software update (due in a couple of weeks) will resolve it. As this affects all devices with certain software setups, I'd like to advise you to wait for the update."

I'm not sure if it is a sw and not a hw problem cause not all devices have it obviously. It is said/speculated in forums(xda, oneplus) that mainly devices manufactured before July 15th have it, my device was build on 8th of July(see back of your box).

Hmmm that could be true, my brothers phone was made on 08/08/2014 and mine was made on 08/07/2014 and when I try fast typing on his Oneplus it works perfectly. He never noticed any troubles with his phone.

I asked my friends what date there phone was build I am waiting for a reply.

The only ones who complain but me are Ost & Mariek and they as you can see have the Chinese model and had the phone before I had it. So I guess there build date is indeed like mine before 15/07/2014. They say that there touchscreen problem is solved after the 33r update, but when I tried typing fast on Ost's OPO I noticed it still had ghost swipes.

But Michaelis says he has no problem at all, so I will test on the 3 Chinese devices since they where built before mine.

I can confirm that the ones in green have no ghost swipes, wipes, touches what so ever.

Aluminum Foil?

Has anyone tried a trick I found on the forums?

They said to open the back of the OPO and tape some aluminum foil to the cover and the touch screen issues and more importantly grounding issues will be gone. THEY ALSO SAID YOU CAN DO THE SAME TRICK BY PLACING THE FOIL BETWEEN THE OPO AND YOUR CASE. Please inform us if this worked. Thanks.

Yes. Tried this, it does nothing.

You're better off holding your phone upside down and typing, it's slightly better. I'm guessing the components behind that part of the screen get less warm.

Change digitizer

Hi Guys,

I saw that in the market there are already replacment digitizers. Like this for example: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/blac...h-Screen-suitable-for-Oneplus/1997075291.html

For sure this is not a Synaptic one :)

So I was wondering - is there any chance if I change the digitizer to get fix touch and grounding issues. On one hand if the problem is caused by fake production may there is a chance, on the other hand if the problem is caused by constructive issue of OPO the issues can't be fixed in this way...

What do you think

P.S. I know that digitizer is fused with display, but believe me it can be changed separatly ;)

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firetrap:
I'm a dev and more the time goes more I am not sure if it's software problem, a software problem can be easily fixed and if it's software why not all one plus one have the problem? Not all oneplus one have the synaptic digitaliser?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobby2005:
What kind of digitizer you think that they use if not all of them are from synaptic...

I also think that the problem is not a software one - it is obvious

I am curious about some details:First: why there is no any official statement from synaptic about touch issue? I think that their image is falling down in each day with each new OPO device sold in the market Second: Why there is no official statement from CM. The same issue with image Third: Why Opo continue to sell faulty devises as they are familiar with all the issues they have to resolve

May be I am crazy but it seems to me that OPO is a big online game which is made by some techno companies :(
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Denisuu:
Yea I know it's sad that they haven't made an official statement yet isn't it?

If it is only software and they should have acknowledged it from the start and told people that they are working on it. Why would you stay silent if you are doing something about it? :S

The thing I imagine going on here is: They don't have enough devices to RMA all the defect devices and they continue selling there stock until they have enough money to acknowledge there is something wrong with devices made in the beginning. Because my friends that have had there device less then a month don't have the ghost touches etc.

The question is why isn't the multitouch problem solved on the new devices if it is hardware related? Do they just keep selling defect devices to keep from going bankrupt? Do they don't know what the problem is themselves? Or are they convinced themselves that it is a kernel issue and are waiting for synaptic to fix it?

May be this is the same update as it was for OPO 19 synaptic driver. But if you continiue to read the thread you will see that the result is the same like OPO - just nothing different is happen, still multitouch issues for the most customers :(

I just made google search with keywords "ghost touches" and most of the results I got were about faulty ( broken) digitizers. And most of the customers get a replacments, but not OPO customers.

And I am thinking with what device OPO can change the fake one, as all of the devices have the same problem. It is Catch 22

realy sucks to see such good phone have so many problems.

on there forum on the french side one did a thread with a poll and there where like 66 who said no problem. and 33 said touchscreen. 26 sayed hardware. so lets say 6/20 people have a problem. that's a very big risk in buying something that aint working.

still i want it. but just can't take the risk of having a **** phone again. that's why i'm looking at the xiaomi mi3 its 288€ + 28€ shiping (tax free etc. from a EU warehouse) but still it's not the oneplus. and a Lg g2 32gigs (new is around 380€ on amazon) that's to much.

problem xiaomi and oneplus have so much difference. i can't choos. (technicly i can xiaomi mi3 atleast i will have a 100% working phone for sure.) cause no other roms than miui. and a aosp leak.

the problem is buy a phone where i have 50% of geting a good one. but if its a good one it will be great. or buy a phone who is great. nothing els to say about it

i asked him again 2weeks ago he still sayed i wouldnt recomand it. so yeah.

maybe the nexus 6 will be better with big battery. who knows
