You can’t fix a hardware problem with software
Try using a different outlet. Most extension outlet have a better ground than wall outlet
It’s the new focus mode: it makes the smartphone unusable so that you can focus on what really matters
Mi a2 lite here, I know it could sound idiot but if you are using a cover, try to remove it!
I got ghost touches which are not comparable to yours probably for a faulty cover that squeezed way much the phone. Mine was made in an relatively hard plastic, and I noticed that after a couple of hours the phone got progressively worst off.
Exorcism for the ghost that’s tapping on your phone!
Same thing happens with my iPad air.
On mi old Xiaomi mi2 I had this problem whenever there was high relative humidity. I’d always have to wipe the display and my hands and then it would work for a bit.
It was “fixed” for me by applying a screen protector.
Did your screen die yet? Had this happen on my Mi 9T. Started with a dead area, then random taps and in a few hours the screen let out a flash and never showed again. I have a suspicion that water might have gotten in but idk
So the touchscreen is busted. I have had that problem before and replacing hte touch screen fixed it.
for me it started with a dead area… which was in the middle of the screen… then it started just a few presses here and there… then it just became a little bit once a week….then every day.
touch screen is dead…. you will need a new one. it is not software.
Which recorder ?
Seems to be a hardware issue. I doubt the is a fix that doesn’t involve replacing the bit that’s broken.
I had ghost touches before replacing my MIUI with a custom rom… But just one or two ghost touches, nothing like that, you have the whole enemy roster of ghostbusters inside that phone 👻
Imagine that number of ghosts behind OP pressing the phone at the same time… laughing.
I don’t see the problem. I just see you going haywire with your poor screen…
Official screen or cheap screen
Not that im aware,no
Oh.. a person i know of said that there is no fix for this,and that the lcd panel is dying,and that the only fix is to replace it entirely. But i have a feeling he just wants busieness because he works as a phone serviceman.. i feel like there has to be something to fix it.
This has been happening on my poco F1. I didn’t know what it’s called so I couldn’t look for a solution.
I can’t stop laugh
This is giving me anxiety
I had a similar problem with a redmi note 3. The problem disappeared when i removed the screen protection glass. I guess some humidity got between the protector and the screen.
Could be that the screen ribbon cable isn’t seated correctly. Reseating it might fix it.
I had the exact same problem in my redmi note 4 about 6 months ago. From my research it came out that it was not a screen problem but a battery one. Anyway, I didn’t looked into it more, I replaced the phone.
Cheap
Did water get in your phone?
How did you fix it?
My phone did something similar when the water got in but if that case didn’t happen with you, then I have no idea.
Yeah, that’s a pisser. A decent quality LCD shouldn’t be too expensive. Though it could be a simple connection issue (screen to mainboard), so a screen replacement might not be necessary.
Did you try acoustic maintenance?
Tell the ghost to stop touching your phone.
Did you try to Google this issue? If other people on the internet are saying something similar maybe it is the panel issue. If you can’t find exactly in case of Xiaomi I think maybe other brand with similar problem might have the same solution. By the way I’m no expert just playing the guessing game.
Are you using while charging?
Have you tried factory reset? 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Does this happen the same way when charging the phone? Maybe the screen cable is not plugged properly? I’m not a pro but had a similar issue when charging a redmi 3 some years ago and people said it was problems with grounding.
Yes about 5-6 months ago,but the ghost touches started happening about a month or 2 ago..
**It’s a feature**
Well you got your answer there. Buy cheap components, get cheap results
Your new touchscreen may have been either installed poorly or it just broke
Just let it dry, it took a week for it to get normal again.
scary
