Ghost touches

Every couple of hours my phone 2 starts to suffer from “ghost touches”. Meaning the screen acts like someone is touching or swiping it. By that apps are open...

MihirChellaboyina If you have phone (2) you can find the topic on this forum to update to the open beta 😉

MihirChellaboyina Look at the first post in this forum. It’s pinned on top. And installation is super easy. And so far I haven’t experienced any bugs.

MihirChellaboyina

76inc great then! Any news on when the stable one will release?

76inc

MihirChellaboyina Not that I know off. But the beta is pretty good as far as I can tell. And you can always perform a rollback if you don’t like it.

My nothing phone (2) is having this weird ghost touch issue which spooks me. Does anyone have experienced the same and how did you overcome it?

Remi F

Tilotham yes it has already been mentioned to the forum but no-one seems to be able to reproduce this issue accurately. I had it when i first received the phone, but it just disappears after some times / updates… So i dont know what to think on this

Nope

Any update on this? Today I experienced the ghost touch issue like 7 times. I am so worried.

76inc

Since switching to the beta a couple of days ago I haven’t experienced them anymore. What kind of version is running on your phone? Maybe an update to 2..04 or 2.5 beta might help.

76inc My phone is running on 2.0.4. I will try the beta, thanks for the update

got 1 min of ghost touches this morning for no reason and then disappeared for no reason agian xD. It’s the weirdest bug I encountered lmao (on 2.5 beta)

Tilotham

This issue is still on😔. I am really hoping that the developer would fix this issue. This is like a nightmare that came real for me. I have tried complaining about this to the customer support but they didn’t give me a proper solution. I really hope that nothing is watching this.

76inc

Tilotham I also reported it to the support team and got no response. But since updating to the beta 1 and now beta 2 the ghost touches didn’t not appear again. So I’m pretty sure that it’s “only” a software problem.

Tilotham It has happened to me too 1 day after buying the phone. First I thought it will be one of issue and it will go if I update to latest version. But it didn’t went and I was worried and so contacted support team and they told some steps nothing worked for me. Then at last I even did factory reset my phone. But the issue still persist. It got worsen. At this point I was angry and frustrated because I bought this phone just for user experience and went to service centre stating these reasons with video proof. And first told it would be software installation issue and they reflash my phone. And I went home with not so convinced. Issue still didn’t went, it happened on the same day when they reflash my phone. I was very angry and took a video proof and send to the service person and argued with him. Then he escalated the issue and said he will replace my display. Again went to change the display and been using for 3 days and to restore my peace, it didn’t happen for once in these days. I hope my experience somehow helps you

76inc Never had this issue

I bought my NP2 last week, and I also have the issues, not for the first 2 days but after that it happened multiple times a day so I couldn’t use it properly.

I removed the screen protector, it still happens, but a lot less, but maybe 2 times a day, and it goes away after few seconds of locking my phone. I’m also on nothingOS 2.0.4 but due to some personal issues, I can not update to beta, so I’ll wait for the android 14 stable update.

What do you guys suggest? Should I call costumer support? Will they give solutions?

76inc

Since I’m sure that it’s a software problem I would try to perform a factory reset. Maybe that helps. As far as I can tell the problems disappeared for everyone after some time.

I don’t really think the support will have an answer, but the more people report the problem the more attention it might get. And maybe it will get solved.

Good luck

76inc may I know how are you sure that it’s a software problem. Mostly “ghost touch” issue in phones happens dur to hardware problems, thats why I’m asking

KelliBoyt

Chiming in to say I’m also having the same issue, currently running version 2.04. Initially it was just once a day, now it’s several times a day. Definitely a bug, and if ppl are experiencing it on the beta, then it definitely should be looked into.

For me it’s frustrating enough to make me consider swapping my SIM into something else until it’s resolved. However there’s not much out currently that excites me phone wise.

My in hand alternatives are:

S22+

ZFlip5

OnePlus 8T 5G

MohammedAdnan did the issue occurred again after you replace the display?
