HTC Desire HD :: Screen Detecting Ghost Touches
Nov 24, 2010
After much waiting for my desire HD I was (and am) really pleased with it. However in the last couple of days my screen appears to be detecting a second touch which pretty much prevents me playing games and is a real hindrance when typing. I could accept this if it were the gel protector or my hand running over the side of the screen, but it seems to be around the "rtuio" bit of the keyboard when holding the phone in portrait mode (i.e. the centre). I do have a screen protector on there but there are no air bubbles or anything visible underneath it. So yeah, has this been raised before? I couldn't find anything. Do I need to recalibrate the screen somehow?

I'm developing an Android application.I'm also working with OpenGL graphics.I have a square drawn on the screen and I want to let user move it when he touches over it. In other words, user should be able to move square when he puts his finger on the square.If he touches outside the square nothing happens.How can I detect when user touches over square?

When typing in an AutoCompleteTextView, when the list shrinks because the number of matches goes down, the DropDown leaves several "ghost" elements on the screen. This only seems to happen when an IME is visible, and visually, it appears to be limited to the area that shows the autocomplete suggestions for the input method, so quite possibly it's happening in what is part of the IME's layout. This occurs in 2.0.1, 2.1 and 2.2 emulators, and most likely on devices as well (confirmed at least on Milestone running 2.1- upgrade1). It _does not_ seem to happen in an 1.6 emulator.

My HTC Desire has developed a strange habit of making ghost calls. The phone has been on charge this morning and it has still managed to call my home number and my wife's mobile without any human intervention.

Mine just started registering phantom screen touches a little while ago.It seems to think there is either and up-swipe or some kind of touch near the top of the screen randomly. For example, an email or list will constantly be scrolling up or if I leave it on a screen with Power Panel on it, one of the icons will randomly highlight orange. The page with the google search widget will have the search field highlight orange on it's own too. When entering text, the cursor will randomly jump back to the beginning.

I've never had a smartphone YET, but my daughter has a Droid and says she hates that when talking on it, her cheek touches the screen and changes stuff while talking. She's new to the phone itself, so is she doing something wrong or is this just a con of smartphones? Or is this a Droid thing and not an EVO thing?

What's the best way of intercepting screen touches and coords during a game loop? At this point, I don't have a View from my main.xml file, so the normal OnTouchEvent doesn't apply, as far as I can tell. What's the usual procedure for this?

I plan to get an HTC Desire soon and have one last question on mind.The best phone I've used so far is the iPhone. If anyone's used/compared the iPhone and Desire with a hands-on experience, could you please let me know how well the touch sensitivity/responsiveness of the HTC Desire compares with the iPhones? i.e. does it respond as well to soft/light touches as the iPhone does? Also, how well would you place the touch sensitivity (good, better, best, equal) for Apple iPhone, HTC Desire, Samsung Galaxy i9000, if you've personally experienced all 3, or any 2 of them.I haven't been able to get my hands on one unfortunately. This seemed to be the only way left to find out.

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(new Ground(this));
} class Ground extends View { public Ground(Context context) { super(context);
} public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { canvas.drawColor(Color.BLACK);
} @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
//TODO: draw the circle } return true;
} } }

I'm new to android development. Is it possible for a view (with a particular layout) to "appear" at the location where the user "touches"? If so, how? Like the idea of right-clicking on your computer - a menu pops down wherever you right-click and when you navigate away, it disappears.

I'm developing an Android application. I'm very new on it. I have the following classes:
class CustomGLSurfaceView extends GLSurfaceView
class CustomRenderer implements GLSurfaceView.Renderer
CustomGLSurfaceView uses CustomRenderer to render a cube on onDrawFrame method.
I've added an onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) on CustomGLSurfaceView to manage touch events:
class CustomGLSurfaceView extends GLSurfaceView {
// For touch inputs - previous touch (x, y)
private float previousX; private float previousY;
private CustomRenderer myRenderer; public CustomGLSurfaceView(Context context) {
super(context); myRenderer = new CustomRenderer(); setRenderer(myRenderer);
} @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
float currentX = event.getX(); float currentY = event.getY();
switch (event.getAction()) { case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
myRenderer.handleMovement(currentY, currentY, previousX, previousY);
} // Save current x, y
previousX = currentX; previousY = currentY;
return true; // Event handled } }
May I have to modify onDrawFrame to draw something new or to rotate the cube? I thing I must do it on handleMovement.

Here is the problem, I am building an application and have multiple images that need to switch when the user touches the screen, doesn't matter where the users touches. The press the screen and the images switch randomly. I purchased the ebook "Professional Android Application Development" and have torn though it. I am stumped. I'm thoroughly confused at this point. Any ideas on where I can go or how I can accomplish this?

I have an urgent problem with my desire and would appreciate any help. My desire is not detecting my computer when I connect the USB, I connect it and it begins charging instead of asking me about the connection type. As I was puzzled and thought this was very strange, I checked the "connect to PC" settings only to find out the "ask me" option was indeed enabled . When I connect the USB to the computer it begins charging and displays "USB" on battery status, but it does not actually detect the computer, nor does the computer detect the phone (even when I change the default connection type to "disk drive" it continues on charge mode). Has anyone any clue as to what is wrong with my desire? I am very confused because as I said, I select the "ask me" option but it does not "ask me", I really want to fix this as it means I cannot sync music onto it, any ideas?

My application for the most part prefers to be online, I have of course added an offline mode so that it works perfectly well when not attached and then re-syncs when connected again.I do, however, have an issue with the initial start of the main activity "black screening" on me while (i assume) it is waiting on a TCP timeout.It would be nice to query and skip the download step if the network is super slow.

My Hero detects a headset even though it's not connected. If I plug in my headphones it switches to headphone mode, but as soon as I disconnect them it switches back to headset mode. (making me unable to use my phone to make phone-calls) Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

The case is I have many SMS messages that have a date of 1 Jan 1970, AKA Ghost messages. My mobile is HTC Magic, and I am using Cyanagonmod 6.0 on it. I believe this problem happened when I used MyPhone Explorer app to delete my old messages straight from my PC. Well, I gotta admit that not all the messages I deleted through that app did the same behavior? So, I am not pretty sure of the scenario by which it caused this problem, however I am pretty sure that It's because this application. What I need now is some way or an app that can clear those ghost messages from my Phone. They don't appear when I search for them using MyPhone Explorer. Also, I tried an application called CleanMessages which delete messages based on some criteria (for example date) but it also can't detect them.

In my Gmail app, I have messages showing up in my Inbox that are *no longer* in my actual Inbox.There are a couple of messages I have since deleted, or moved to another folder, or archived that are still showing up.I keep refreshing, and these 'ghost' messages still show up.Just to be clear, when I go to gmail.com in my browser, these messages are *not* in my Inbox.They are only showing up in my Gmail app Inbox.I'll take any suggestion that doesn't require me factory resetting my phone

I have been contemplating rooting my Evo for some time for the reasons mentioned in the title. I have read rave reviews for WiFi tethering all over this forum and will definitely take advantage of it. Secondly, I have heard that when the Evo is rooted you can create back up, with Nandroid or Titanium, and it is a ghost/clone of the entire phone (settings, apps, app data/pointers, etc.). I have had to replace my phone a few times now for factory defects and it has caused tremendous pain to lose some of the app data that I had stockpiled in the 3 months since my last replacement. In the event of having to replace my phone again after rooting it, would I just have to root the new Evo and flash the last back up and ROM (stock or not) that I was using?

I am using the MapsDemo example for a mapping application where I rotate the map in direction of travel. This works well even without the canvas smoothing in the example.
However, I haven't yet managed to adjust the dispatchTouchEvent code to counter the map rotation effect for the user touches (right now when the map is rotated 90 degrees a user's horizontal sweep will move the map vertically etc). The sample code only offers the teaser:
CODE:..........
And while I am at it - Is it still possible to position the zoom controls separately, so that they do NOT rotate when the map rotates? I read that the getZoomControls() is deprecated.

my phone has been randomly spazzing out. I have a LG G2 with 4.4.2
It will slide left to right, open and close apps, etc. without me touching it.
It will go periods of time without doing this, then not stop doing it for a good few minutes. i did just factory reset it, but it is still doing the same thing.

I am looking for an app, that makes the touches visible.
I do not mean a Touch-Test App, but one that creates an Overlay and displays the touches, with variable graphics.
Something like that, what can be activated in the developer options but with variable Graphics, not such a simple circle.

My sero pro produce random false touches when connected to computer via usb cable. That makes it very inconvinient to use for development. It does not have this problem when the cable is not connected. That is most apparent when "Show touches" is turned on in developer settings.
I opened it up looking for loose joints on usb or digitizer ports, but everything seems good with that.

I wonder if ne one had an major issue with their touch screen before like I had with mine. So I decided to post this little story. Let me start off with a little background info. I got my droid november 6, 5 46am central time zone. don't ask me how but the vzw dude was letting me earlier cuz I had work. I was so happy that day leaving t mobile I did love my g1 but wen I read all about the droid I felt likt I had to leave her and move on. She did do a lot for me but time tells all and it was my time go and move on.Untill two months ago (Present time I'm talking in) I realized not everyone has the bubbly keyboard. I saw friends at my unit (I'm in the army reserves) that bought the droid a couple of months after me had flat keyboards n they were bitching bout how flat it was. I agreed with them since I was woth a g1 the keyboard was a bit flat but nothing to were its such a pain, so my friend shows me his keyboard and I looked shocked played with it was like wow and I pulled my n did a side by side side comprasion and this before I saw the bubbley keyboard thread on here. So unforunately my toucscreen starting doin its own thing like it was ghost writer and spazzing out. I had no control over it this happened monday nite and I was dreading it that I will end up replacing it. But it would not let me do nothing.I couldn't go ne where on my screen it would randomly hit different icons to the point were sum times it would call my contacts. I only had control over the physical buttons. So on Tuesday during work I fought the ghost writer to let get to setting a do a system restore. First minute of the set up was ok but right wen it finish and I was on the home screen again. I was like FUDGE I don't want to replace my rare Droid. After work I replaced it, I was real pissed I had the bubbly keyboard and (something I didn't noticed untill I got my replacement) the golden plated volume side button. I miss my precious rare droid. I was soo proud to be first non employee to have the droid in houston.
