Unresponsive touch when phone runs. After lock screen and unlock it its all ok. - Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hello there. Im new to this forum. Im using a A3 2016 galaxy model. I was running 6.0.1. I decided to update to 7.0 via Odin because this update hasnt released in my country. It was all good. The keyboard was fast and responsive. After a minute was unresponisve. i mean i was typing sthng fast and in the end only the half word was done! i googled this and found a lot of threads about this in nougat . After that i saw unresponsive pitch zoom in gallery. But when i lock and unlocked the screen zoom and keyboard lag was gone. i think its general unresponsive(not only in keyboard and zoom). I decide to downgrade back to 6.0.1 . Faster than nougat of course. But all of the sudden the probem was still there!!! Now im writing to help me out guys. I have some thinks in my mind:
1.Is Odin s fault?
2.I moved on to my village that temp is 40 celsius. Is the temp ?or the temperd glass became unresponsive cause of that hot weather? So its tempered glass fault ?
3. Is a hardware s problem? (i dont think so because all was good before *as i remember* )
Its just a temporary issue and will go away by the time ?
Note ! I wiped the cache and data 3 times at least!!!
Sorry for my bad English .

Same situation I thought is the fault of hardware not enought performant on some situation, the ram isn't suffisant to use two application on the same time, I find that nougat is more laggy than marshmallow but when nougat lag the phone freeze and with marshmallow it was more time to response probably du by too much information waiting ... Can you say me when you get thoses issues to may or may not confirm my theory

The stock keyboard is also very laggy on my A310f using any Samsung based Nougat ROM.
I generally use the standalone Touchtype Swiftkey, which is just head and shoulders above any other KB I've found, and which you can make almost identical(but better) via theming, if you really must have the look of the S-Keyboard. I'm also so used to the Swiftkey symbol/key layout and find it much faster and intuitive to type with in general.
I haven't found any other lag issues with Nougat on Samsung ROMs, other than keyboard input.

Elephone S7 touch problem - Pixel skipping

Hello together,
my Elephone S7 arrived yesterday and iam very happy with it except the touch behavior. As many Elephones before my S7 has also the pixel-skipping problem. The touchscreen is very inaccurate and when you scroll slowly there will be continuously micro stuttering and pixel-skipping.
My Phoneversion: Black / 4Gb / 64Gb - Firmware: Elephone_S7_97_20161123
The Elephone P6000 had the same kind of touch behavoir problem. It could be solved with a software-fix. (TP-Fix)
Link to the guy who fixed it: http://bbs.elephone.hk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2377#.WD6BWYVFyUn
May somebody is able to locate the problem on S7 and write a similar fix. I hope there is no hardware limitation.
so far.
I have the same S7 model & firmware, but have not noticed the issue you mention.
Seems fairly usable and could not see noticable stuttering..
I have removed the screen protector though, maybe its a factor ?
If you have a look at the following post I think this issue has/is being addressed in a future firmware update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69783518&postcount=30
I dont say that the device is unusable but the stuttering on slow and short scrolling is still there. Especially when you adjust an slider or anything Else.
As reported in the opening post Iam on the lastet firmware 20161123.

Good to see Elephone are constantly working on improving things, hope this continues until things are perfect.
I recall reading that Elephone will keep providing firmware updates for 1 year after the devices release date, let's hope they keep this promise. Also looking forward to Android 7.X although probably won't be for a while yet.

Hi
Yeah they have a super service Elephone ,just press icon on homescreen and write a suggestion or quistion or use link to official forum that contains official rom's and users own custom rom .. Pretty cool ..
By the way ,runs like a charm with latest update.
Very fast and so good it's camera..
Bricked it yesterday when rooting it this 6.0 is tricky but im pretty stubborn ...
Well now i has a new kernel update .. Looking forward to next update so i can have my smooth running phone back ..
Hey guys. I received my s7 yesterday. Out of the box I immediately did an update to 1212 Firmware via OTA. For me the pixel skipping bug is still here and for me this is pretty annoying!
Checking with MTK Engineering mode you can see that your finger movement is only recognised every 15-25 pixels.-no matter if you move in x direction or in y direction.
Do you think this can be really fixed by a Software Update? If this is hardware related I will immediately send back this thing!
It's not the only bug. Touch seems laggy in general. There seem to be a lot more. e.g. GPS, SIM 1 deactivation while connecting to car stereo via Bluetooth and so on.
I"m pretty disappointed by the s7 right now....
elephone s7 touch problem

Yes same problem !
It's a shame. I did have the same problem on my Nook color tablet, a touch driver firmware fixed the thing.

I hope Elephon is on the verge to fix this.
Hi everyone !
I did receive a new update firmware, a small one (83 MB) from the 01/09 and it fixed the laggy screentouch problem ! It's now perfectly smooth, at pixel scale ! Great news !!
Hi MO5.COM, thanks for the good news. I cant wait to update to newest version. Still waiting for it because the buildtin OTA update agent actual offers me no update.
Gesendet von meinem S7 mit Tapatalk
If someone knows where it downloads the new firmware (i tried to find it, no success) i can download it here !
Something strange, i needed to format the smartphone as new with the 20161219 firmware and not log into Google to apply this new small one. A bit strange.

Always-on screen problem. Please help

Hello, i really need help guys
I was on stock andriod 6.0 and wanted to upgrade to 7.0 but couldnt wait so i downloaded 7.0 firmware from sammobile.com and used odin and everything ran smoothly, but once everything was complete i found out that the Always on screen didnt work well ( the screen light is always on along with the always on clock) . Before i upgraded to 7.0 my always on screen used to be completely off except for the clock but now the entire screen is lid and it looks really ugly because it isnt deep black, plus the battery life is short now..
I tried different firmwares (both 6.0 and 7.1) and also many custom rooms to solve it..but it didnt work. Everything else works perfectly except the always on screen
Pleas help
Thanks

anyone ?
If you mean always on background is not dark as old version as and it's drain battery, there is no solution to reinstall it. This is so weird problem. Also, I couldn't understand what is the exact problem. You should capture the screen with external camera and post it here. Maybe that can help you more.
That is indeed a weird problem. First time i heard of this. It seems like a bug or smth. Did you do a factory reset etc each time you flashed a rom file?
I already faced the same issue in marshmallow. Service center has detected it as a screen problem and replaced it whether third party AODs (from playstore) worked flawlessly on faulty screen.
I have the same problem after nougat too, problem is my phone is from singapore and I'm here in India. Such a premium phone, no internaitonal coverage for manufacturing defect -__-
Got exactly the same problem after using phone a bit more than 4 months. Stock firmware and never rooted, never dropped. Already tried a factory reset - did not help. So looks like a screen defect... Will bring it to the warranty.

[Q] [Ze552kl] Does Nougat have lags/stutters throughout UI ?

Just bought a Ze552kl off Amazon for a pretty sweet price of ₹16,725 (£191.14/$256.16) couple of days ago.
Though it was running Nougat 7.0 right out of the box, there were some minor UI bugs like on pulling down the notification panel it'd sometimes get stuck and the only way out would be to get to the home screen.
An update fixed that, but scrolling lag still persisted.
To rule out hardware issues I performed touch tests and though it managed to pass, it was difficult. I had to run it multiple times because it involved user input. It requires you to trace the boundaries of four shaded areas which are quite slim.
(Factory reset didn't seem to make a difference either)
I then tried a couple of touch calibration apps which brought noticeable improvements but it's still not enough.
So did I receive a faulty set or is it some software issue ?
Are you on the latest version of the ASUS ROM? I have a slightly different model than you, but I found the initial Nougat update to be very slow and buggy. Subsequent updates seems to have fixed most issues...
I guess, yeah, because I haven't received any more updates post the latest one mentioned on their website.
I really don't have any issues with this ROM except for the not-so-great touch response. It is a bit laggy, but that's all.
EDIT: Oh, and the Firmware is WW-14.2020.1708.56

I use Quickpic for wallpaper so no issue.
-when open camera the brightness will turn to max
That seems to be default behavior and not a bug.
-scrolling sometimes quite weird
Scrolling seems to be smooth. I have changed animation to .5X.
-multitouch bugs
Do not have this issue.
-typing will feel alittle bit delay or lag sometimes..?
Yes, this seems to be the issue.
-geature like double tap to wake and swipe to wake is not working(require to off the geature and on agn then working)
Yes, I can confirm this bug.
-recovery mode is missing in action...
Can you elobrate this? I have TWRP and that works fine.
-charging quite little slow..
My phone take 3 hours to charge fully from 10%. Seems to be same as previous version. Try restarting the phone before putting it for charging, it may help.

Q) wallpaper does not working once u want to change ur wallpaper
A) For me, changing wallpapers works like a charm. I haven't tried live wallpapers.
Q) when open camera the brightness will turn to max
A) This is the norm for a lot of apps. One prominent example is Open Camera.
Q) scrolling sometimes quite weird
A) No problem here.
Q) multitouch bugs
A) I have this issue. When playing games like Batman (tell tale), PUBG, etc. the touch does not respond correctly.
Q) typing will feel alittle bit delay or lag sometimes..?
A) No issues here.
Q) geature like double tap to wake and swipe to wake is not working (require to off the geature and on agn then working)
A) Confirmed.
Q) recovery mode is missing in action...
A) If you're talking about the switch off menu, I can't confirm this. I have never had the reboot to recovery option.
Q) charging quite little slow..
A) Seems okay to me. 2.5-3 hours from 5-100% battery.
Another bug that I have encountered is that some apps do not work on WiFi connection. The ones I can confirm are Twitter, PhonePe and Amazon Music. They work just fine on mobile data.
live wallpaper doesnt work since .305 update still not fixed in .309 update
I also am having multi touch issue. The screen flickers when I use both fingers to play PUBG Mobile. When will it be fixed ? Any method to fix it without root or harming future OTA updates ?

I have this issue too and I think this is considered a serious problem that Asus need to fix ASAP. A phone with multi-touch issue is really unusable especially when playing games which this phone is catered for. Is there an official Asus site that we file our complain?

Touchscreen Issues

I've just purchased a Tab S5e but appear to be having some issues with the touchscreen. I first noticed it when scrolling, occasionally the scrolling would stop and the device would click on anything that was under my finger. I also noticed this when playing a game where a finger needed to be held on the screen, it was sometimes appear to the game that my finger was removed.
I recorded a video of what i'm experiencing here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-33ixSpHRijjhb8g-MNLvbjMvuPRuGrQ. I did not remove my finger at all whilst drawing in white, but gaps appear.
I guess my question is has anyone else experienced this, or could this be a hardware fault? I thinking of returning this and waiting for the S6e or similar rumoured to be out soon.
Thanks all!
I'm experiencing touch screen problems where I sometimes need to tap the display 3 or 4 times before the screen will register the touch. I've only had mine for a few days but Im thinking about returning as well.
I was going through the threads for the first time to see if there were similar issues reported or tips to minimize the issue.
After switching from the Huawei Mate 20 Pro to the Samsung S10+ and from a Huawei tablet to this I have to say I'm seriously underwhelmed with Samsung.

Did you somehow solve the probelm?

Nope. The problem doesn't occur when playing games or using apps that test the display--but does with pretty much everything else. Some apps also have very pronounced jelly effect while scrolling including the Samsung Members App--scrolling through posts has so much jelly effect it makes me feel like I'm going blind.
Earlier Galaxy Tab devices had a calibration setting to adjust touch sensitivity but the type of panel used in the S5e apparently can't be user calibrated. Some people have claimed that the pointer speed setting is the same thing but touch sensitivity and response speed aren't the same thing and increasing that setting to the max didn't improve anything for me. If you want a faster response that's one thing but if the touch doesn't even register in the first place then there isn't anything to speed up.
The game optomizer service running in the background clearly ramps up the kernel when playing games to eliminate or minimize the touch issues and display test apps are treated like games and also get the extra performance boost--but with a locked bootloader I don't think there are any user options besides not purchasing Samsung in the first place.
Would a custom rom solve this?

I always check before buying a tablet to make sure there is developement of custom ROMs in XDA. And the first thing I do when I get one is to root and install one. Are there still "touch problems" with my ROM? Yes and no. I've noticed with this and other tablets that when the tablet first boots, there can be a lag in touch response. But I don't think it has anything to do with "touch sensitivity". I think the problem is that the OS is still "setting up" and just isn't ready to accept touches. (Try it on a Win 10 box. There is a terrific delay between the time the desktop screen first appears and the time it is ready.) This can also be true of apps. The screen can display before the app is ready for input. IMNSHO, I think some people just love to find reasons to knock "the vendor they love to hate".:crying:
Since I bought this tablet, I noticed that issue, the screen detects the touch, but it does not perform the action I want, open an app, select something,etc. I learned to live with it, but that is annoying !!, I installed a Custom ROM specifically [ROM] [UNOFFICIAL] [gts4lvwifi] [10] LineageOS 17.1 and I can confirm that the issue disappears, the problem for which I returned to STOCK, is the cut down quality of Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, because Widevine Level certification . and now in STOCK, I lost Samsung PASS, because it detects that I have the rooted device. fyi, my model is SM-t720.
