Then what we can do?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
We can wait for developers to either adapt a solution to this problem or we can just wait for Xiaomi to release the sources with the solution.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Skinpipe:
I've owned a poco for 8 and a half months and the screen has sucked from day 1 and still does to this day, it will never be fixed, they will release poco f2 or whatever next and they won't care about f1, do yourselves a favour and sell it and get something else
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Apparently even K20 Pro has also some issues on touch screen more like Poco F1.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Skinpipe:
Please no I was considering k20 Pro, xiaomi knows who supplies the crappy digitizers and where to buy them
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
That's too unfortunate they don't vare about making good business and relations they just wanna make money by selling units.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Skinpipe:
Have you tried twisted kernel the dev has 3 versions each with different touch fw maybe you can improve your experience by testing each 1 at a time for a bit and see what works best for you
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ele95:
ill move from xiaomi devices for ever and never return to this ****tty company , im going to buy 1+7pro
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] silentmann:
Yeah, ghost touches are a real problem. And this problem must be solved as soon as possible. I hope devs are working hard right now. And this is definitely software problem cuz I haven't any touch issues for 3 months.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Skinpipe:
I'm going back to oneplus:good:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Sure only problem is twisted haven't included the vocaltech touch drivers which actually fixes the screen freezes, am highly considering hus kernel as soon as he includes those drivers
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Much better for u bro, a wise decision.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Yea it's not hardware related, we just need xiaomi to push thier resources so that it can be fixed or push an updated vendor firmware with the fix.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
At this point any device without touch issues is better than thr Poco F1 to be honest.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Ok for those who are experiencing ghost touches on thier device please use the link below frorm [MENTION=7280276]ipdev[/MENTION]

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/mobile/folders/1zGc3v1ahsN2dpkPppNAJJMDHKl8jnQmj?usp=drive_open

Do it as follows:

If you are flashing vendor/firmware 9.6.27 then flash the kernel 9.6.27 and if you are flashing 9.6.24 then flash the kernel 9.6.24 (the kernel in parallel with the vendor and firmware) if it works for you guys please report back here, thanks!

Note: make sure you are NOT on F2FS because the kernels in the link doesn't support F2FS.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] TekHck:
Just flash the latest version of Optimus_Drunk kernel.. it solved 80% touch issue for me. I'm on CrDroid rom with OD kernel.

Thanks me later
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Thanks for sharing! Which Vendor and firmware are u using?

Note: am on latest Evolution X ROM + 9.6.27 vendor and firmware + stock ROM kernel (Derp) and not any noticeable ghost touches been on that setup for 2 days.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] TekHck:
Latest ven+fw 9.6.27 :victory:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
That's great to hear, hopefully all custom kernels will include the new touch drivers just like Optimus Drunk, Derp, stock LOS unofficial and rebirth, Malakas and Franco.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] deprat:
I use miui dev rom & franco kernel.

Few tips :

Turn off all gestures (set all none)

Turn off miui optimization

Turn off battery saver

(Sorry my English is so bad)

Good luck
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Thank you for sharing that Depart, highly appreciate it!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MichaelScott5:
Just turn on Pointer Location in Developer settings, I tried every vendor+kernel variation I could find,all clean flashed, the issue is there. There are a few random touches on the upper left side of the screen just a little bit below the notch which triggers the notifications being pulled off. Again, tried on stock 10.3.5.0, it doesn't happen.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Thanks dear, did you try vendor/firmware 9.6.27 with Evo X latest update + derp kernel 3.6?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MichaelScott5:
I only tried Pixel Experience, with 10.3.5.0 vendor firmware and Malakas, Derp, Optimus Drunk kernel, even with stock 10.3.5.0 kernel. Then the same with 9.6.27 vendor. Someone said it can't be a ROM problem, so idk. Stock 10.3.5.0 kernel with same vendor firmware on PE results the same ghost touch, stock newest miui stable rom=no ghost touch.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Am on Evo X latest + latest vendor and firmware 9.6.27 with derp 3.6 (no issues so far, been on that setup for 2 weeks now)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xaeron00:
I tried your setup massive ghost touch all over the screen, what is your evo x version i tried the latest version and 07/07..Almost the same experience. I format data before flashing using skyhawk recovery. M i missing something..?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Are you on Derp? The past few days I had a stupid amount of ghost touches, I will try NOS latest as it has vocaltech touch drivers updated now.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xaeron00:
Yup i tried derp optimus and stock, the same effect only unofficial lineage have minimal ghost touch i use .24 .20 and .27 vendor and firmware but when the ghost kick in my poco is unusable..F...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Exactly soon as they start i cant even use the damn keyboard, Xiaomi requested some users with similar issues to send then their devices to work on a solution, what a damn shame.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xaeron00:
I think ghost touch is more stable on latest miui beta

than on any custom rom here. What is ur poco factory build.. Mine is 2018/12 6/128 blue
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Where do i find that info bro?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xaeron00:
Its printed on the box of ur poco
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MichaelScott5:
Yeah, mine is from December too.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Bro my poco box is back home in Canada i will have my brother check or i will check when am back currently am in Dubai.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] radiusTM:
My problem is when phone is extremely heating in gaming, multi touch doesnt work. Anyone having this problem?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xaeron00:
Hey bro have u tried latest nitrogen os + 10.3.5.0 stable firmware..?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
No bro still, if i will flash it i will flash with 9.6.27 firmware, bave u tried NOS?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xaeron00:
Im currently on it.. massive ghost touch too on 9.6.27, 9.6.24 and 10.3.5.0 firmware-vendor with stock kernel
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Yes i guess mimi ui better push a solution soon
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] alifarhad:
I have NVT panel and I was able to fix my touch issue by flashing malakas kernel on top of latest MIUI global stable. Please don't wipe cache/delvik after flashing the kernel or it might result in bootloop.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] renansince91:
Test this for one week or more, then tell me if still working fine :(
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] alifarhad:
I have been using this for over 7 months now
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
I had both touch issue and screen bleeding on my previous Poco F1 (Novatek touch panel; manufactured on October 2018). I sold it and got a new Poco F1 (Novatek touch panel; manufactured on May, 2019) and surprisingly there's no touch issue and screen bleeding. I'm on Global stable 10.3.5.0. I think Xiaomi has admitted both the issues silently and fixed them on the latest units.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ironman38102:
I have a new unit that was made on January 2019 and I have yet to experience any issues. They have definitely fixed these things on new units
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
NVT panels are working fine, its Fts_ts panels that are screwed up bro.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Exactly so am hoping they push a solution to existing panels with issues cuz i previously had screen freezes with vocaltech touch drivers it got fixed but ghost touches are still present.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Lucky uu! Been suffering from touch issues since day one man screw that.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ironman38102:
My unit has Fts_ts
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Then it must be a new unit bro, most of 2018 units are jammed up
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ironman38102:
And that's why I waited to get Poco once I heard about screen issues. Probably K20 pro is having same problems
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
K20 pro is indeed having those issues
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ironman38102:
That's why I didn't get it. Otherwise K20 Pro was definitely in my list. It's frankly disappointing such a great phone is having such stupid issues
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
I can imagine how dumb it's to have a touch screen issues on a touch screen device in 2019 loool that's just sooo stupid and absurd.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Don't risk it buddy. I heard K20 serious also have multi touch issue. I don't know what's wrong with Xiaomi. Previously they didn't have this issue (up till Note 5 pro I guess).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
I guess it has to do with the company they are dealing with or companies.. Which are NVT and FTS, on a side note oneplus 7 or oneplus 7 pro is also having phantom touches an not which sure either 7 or 7 pro ir both.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ironman38102:
I'm not getting K20 pro anyway until next year. Better wait till they iron out the issues
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xaeron00:
Hey guys have u try Pixel Experience With Malakas oc screen kernel and disable notch setting on .27 firmware+vendor...?

I think ghost touch is gone on me ive been using my phone for 3 days on heavy usage
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ggezboye:
Could be related to dirty screen

I also experience ghost touches on my Pocophone F1 bought last October 2018. Funny thing is that I'm not a gamer myself and found that the ghost touch, on mine atleast, were related to the grease left from my fingers or my face (after a call). Sample cases:

I happen to catch one ghost touch which stops my foobar2000 music player. Apparently, the greasy fingerprint left after I touch the play button were the ones that trigger the pause button.

TOP most panel and under the notch were due to face greases left after a call, based on what I observed.

Ever since those findings of my own, I always wipe my phone's screen all the time. I use a tempered glass and it seems to have no coating to prevent finger prints from sticking.

Phone info:

ROM: MIUI 10.3.5 Global

Bootloader: Never been unlocked ever since purchase.

Can you provide relevant links or videos that can support your claim? I'm interested with the K series and am searching for something that might be a major deal breaker for me (not a gamer). Is it isolated to K Series? Does other branded phone have it?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MichaelScott5:
Yeah, I mean you can pretty much just disable the notch on any kernel or rom and the problem is gone, but disabling the notch is not exactly the best solution.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aurolei:
So I've had a really bad FTS panel for my pocophone for a while now. Ghost Touches were completely unbearable for me on 9.6.27 with PE CAF rom.

When the newest Pixel Experience rom came out on the 11/7 I immediately checked if there was a new vendor firmware. In doing so I had discovered that I had actually been using the 9.6.27 vendor files only and NOT vendor+firmware.

So I went through and updated my vendor+firmware first, restarted the phone back into recovery and then dirty flashed the PE update.

9 days later and I still haven't had a single ghost touch or screen freeze. Not even a single minor ghost touch where the notification menu will drop down even a slight bit. Simply nothing at all. Gestures and notch are also all enabled. Not currently using custom kernel, just the stock Derp/Illusion kernel that comes with PE

Continuing with the theme that it could also just be dirty, I also ,coincidently, decided to put on a screen protector around the same time I updated the ROM. I had also put my phone through a very thorough cleaning. It's possible that may have also fixed my ghost touch issues.

I would encourage people to try and replicate what I did. You would have to do the following though.

1) Clean Flash to old PE rom CAF using 9.6.24 Vendor+Firmware

2) Update to 9.6.27 vendor files only

3) Restart

4) Update to 9.6.27 Vendor+Firmware

5) Restart

6) Dirty flash current PE rom

I know it seems almost ridiculous that this would actually fix the panel, but in my own experience the phone feels entirely brand new.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Thats amazing ! Thanks for reporting I will use this setup, which version of Malakas u r using? Like date version wise?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Makes the screen look kind of ugly i guess
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Thanks for sharing this information bro.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Thank you sooo much man this is great information i will also try the same steps u did and see how it runs! Thanks for the detailed information once again!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Anyone tired 10.3.6.0 global stable vendor/firmware and actually got the ghost touches radically solved?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ipdev:
Nope.

Not as common but, ghost touch is still there.

Sometimes right after boot but, mostly with scrolling or graphic switching.

(Scrolling though combination of text, picture and video.)

I run tall for notch option. Regular and hide notch are worse for me.

Validus and crDroid. (Both use drunk kernel.)

Also tried franco and stock miui kernels.

(Using the performance mode in franco's kernel, seemed to take longer before ghost touches showed up.)

Cheers.

Edit.

Mine is Global 6GB/128GB 2018.11 - FTS screen.

Clean flashes, unencrypted and 10.3.6.0 ven-firm.

(Magisk-Debug official TWRP.)

Question.

Has anyone noticed a difference with screen resolution?

Cheers again.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] silentmann:
10.3.6.0 on fts_ts screen is full of ghost touches with stock vendor/firmware/kernel. They fixed touch lags only for nvt-ts. :rolleyes:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Thank you soo much bro! It's always great to see you participating here on XDA, i believe that xiaomi needs to push a solution just like they did when we had screen freezes right before vocaltech touch drivers were published.

As far as screen resolution I haven't noticed any to be honest and my current setup is 9.6.27 ven-firm with Evolution X latest running stock kernel.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
That's too unfortunate bro.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] silentmann:
Observation from me, on stable/stock firmware/vendor/kernel 10.3.6.0 + fts_ts panel, you don't need to

turn off...turn on the screen to get rid of ghost touches. You can just hold the power button until a menu pops up and then back and ghost touches are gone(this is weird). So with this observation, I tested my phone for 2-3 days with a simple scenario:

1. I never pressed the power button for turning on or off the screen.

2. Set face unlock(without staying on blocked screen after unlocking) and raise to wake in settings. (probably works with touch id and double-tap to wake) I choose face to unlock cuz animation is smoother.

And after that, I didn't experience any of ghost touches/freezes anymore on the stock firmware with notch/gestures and everything enabled.

Hope this helps for someone, who is still on full stock firmware.

This is insane to have such problems in 2019, hope they will fixed ghost touches, but I highly doubt, cuz they probably saw feedback from ppl with NVTS, that everything is fixed.

So my conclusion is never buyin Xiaomi/redmi again(even if they cheaper).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Adriano-A3:
The best conclusion so far.

Afaik OnePlus fixed its screen issues.

Xiaomeme can't do a thing.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] InvolveX:
Every time i set up my phone new( new Kernel, Rom etc, Factory Reset) my ghost touch and screen freezes are gone for some days. But when they comeback they are god damn heavy and annoying. Sometimes i need to lock and unlock my phone 6,7 times .

Im runnin crdroid at the moment and currently im tryin TwistedKernels , cause sadly OptimusDrunk didnt fix it. Twisted has different versions so i hope there for a fix. I got an nvt-ts-panel .

I first got the ghost touch / freeze issue after my display got replaced.

any tipps for getting it better are appreciated.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ron_hyatt:
I am back to miui 9 oreo global stable, my touch issues only start after installing pubg......when i dont install pubg i never have touch issues(heavy games like fortnite work perfectly and on max graphics)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ron_hyatt:
I followed your steps and immediately experienced touch lag in pubg and in all menus(settings....etc).

once i disabled raise to wake and face unlock, everything was back to normal(except with pubg).

am on miui 9 oreo global stable(fastboot miflash clean flash,no twrp,no root,no dfe....everything stock).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] silentmann:
I only tested this on miui 10 android 9 Pie. More to say, I never had any ghost/freezes on oreo and btw which panel do you have?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ron_hyatt:
I understand your test was on pie. I never had any issues on oreo during the first 7 months of use....it all started two weeks ago and i had to go back to oreo to test.

my panel is fts (december 2018) and this freeze/ghost/lag issue is software .....the freaks at xiaomi are too busy with their new toys so they will not fix it for us:(
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
Some people are saying that using 10.6.3.0 global stable vendor firmware along with latest Optimus Drunk solved the ghost touches for Fts_ts users, i will give it a try and revert back here, meanwhile if anyone is in that exact setup please report here, ai hope they fix this bulls**** cuz honestly this isn't bearable anymore.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ron_hyatt:
i flashed 10.3.6.0 global stable and started getting freeze,ghost touches within few minutes mainly with that damned game pubg.....I then flashed optimus drunk latest(28/7/19) and suddendly all issues were gone for nearly two hours....then i got 1-2 screen freezes and didnt lock then unlock phone to fix....i just waited for 5 seconds each time for freezes to pass!........so may be optimus drunk kernel does help but not a complete fix but this prooves its mainly a software issue.

leaving pubg running in the background for 20 mins....back to the recent apps menu......phone unlocks normally but screen freezes when trying to maximize the game, onscreen buttons not responding!!......5 seconds wait.....everything back to normal!!

one more thing about optimus kernel is bad cpu thermals(54 celsius with pubg!!)....my cpu never reached that figure with any rom before:(
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
For now try 9.6.27 vendor and firmware along with latest Evolution X with its own stock kernel , things are great here with very very minimal ghost touches and zero touch freezes, also note that am a hardcore PUBG player with zero touch freezes.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] haaffizzzz:
only thing you can do is to change the lcd display. its cheap
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ron_hyatt:
i remember trying that combo and had issues but will try again may be i flashed different vendor the first time.

the question is: why does touch issues seem to be fixed/gone right after flashing a rom/kernel then reappear hours/days later?!

dont you agree that if it was hardware issue....it wouldnt have been fixed at all with roms/kernels?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
I do agree its a software related matter as previously we had touch freezes but with vocaltech touch drivers those touch freezes are gone so its a hundred percent a software related matter.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ron_hyatt:
exactly!.....coz i read lots of posts like post #81 in this thread advising poeple to replace their lcd!.....i know the reselling value of a phone with replaced hardware is much less than an intact one(at least in developing countries where service centers even if authorized are way unprofessional)!.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidjunky90:
True the minute they pop the hood of your device, it will be worthing way less than the that has never been touched before, this applies to most countries if not all of them.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] silentmann:
they actually fixed ghost touch for FTS-ts in MIUI 10.3.8.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] lolmensch:
Okay I didnt read the whole thread and I never really followed the whole ghost touch thing. I am quite happy with miui but recently tried lineage os and the potato android q rom. Both had ghost touches for me which was super annoying. Even the display turned itself on a few times. Different Kernels didn't solve anything for me.

Went back to 10.3.7 eu rom with magisk and all is good without any issues.

-> no aosp or custom roms for me anymore
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MichaelScott5:
10.3.8.0 kernel actually did fixed the ghost touches, but now Bluetooth and Wifi doesn't work on most ROMs, hoping to get a fix for this, or that some dev can implement the new touch drivers for custom kernels.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] PPPon:
Here we go again with the update that fixes ghost touches. And here I am doubting.
