No - nothing wrong. It's very common and even if you were quick enough you can't do anything with the home screen. It's not perfect, but it's nothing to worry about. Just ignore it.

Happened to me too in 2.3.3. Today I updated to stock 2.3.4 and this bug is gone.

Really?? That's good!
It seems that 2.3.4 fixes a lot of bugs.. which i already have..
1. Overheating during charging
2. Yellowish & Darker problem in half of the screen
I'm from Greece and i'm just waiting for the official release of 2.3.4.. Any news on that?

My HD2 (Windows) used to do that.
Can't say I've noticed it on my S2 yet.... Though I haven't specifically looked...

I've never seen it on the S2 either, but I did see it quite a bit on my HD2 on both Windows and Android.

[Q] problems with touchscreen ?!

i buyed a htc 7 mozart but i have some problems but only sometimes...
when i want to unlock the phone ..i swipe my finger from the botom to top but the scren moves only a little like i swaped only half of the screen
and when some 1 calls me ,again same problem..sometimes it work sometimes not
what is the problem ?
Same here
I and two friends have the same problem, the screen is slow to activate it seems.
it takes a couple of tries for the touch to react after turning the screen on, no matter if its from the normal "sleep", after talking on the phone, or when ever the screen has been turned off and then started in any way.
I had the problem before bot it dissapeared, and now it is back after i replaced my digitizer.
My friends phones have not been tampered with, and only one of them still has the problem.
Could problems with the proximity sensor and/or grounding be related to this problem?
Does anyone know what the reason for this delay is?
The same happens to me occasionally.
When it happens, slide the left side of the screen and works without problems after 5s, works well.
Its a problem that I hate very much.
Also another problem that happens when I open something and turn on the gps, I close the program and have a battery of abnormal wear.
Sorry bad english

I have the same problem, hardware, for one.OK.
Same goes for me! I think it should be hardware problem. As stated, we should always swipe the left side of the screen whenever we unlock!
Same problem here. Weird thing is that its only there for a couple of days... Maybe cause of all those updates lately? Anyone can comment if resetting to the factory defaults helps?
fixed it..
well ive updated the phone and since then it works.. amazing
the same problem of my classmate's Mozart

Which update did you install to your phone?
This problem started on mine after nodo... Sometimes over 30 seconds before the rh side of the screen becomes live...
I have the same problem!!!.
I think to go to HTC Service Center on the tuesday.
in addition, i have problem about music control on the lock screen too.

The only solution that worked for me, is installing this rom:
RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.28.111.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50 _RELEASE
from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857561
After that, i installed the available updates through Zune, all works smoothly now.

[Q] Delayed wakeup upon unlock. 4.0.3

Yes, I have searched the forum but only found old posts, nothing pertaining to ICS about this.
I've had this problem since 2.3, and it's kinda annoying.
When I press the unlock button it takes around 2sec for the phone to wake-up.
I thought this was supposed to be fixed in the verisons after 2.3, and now I have 4.0.3 and it's still present.
Anyone else have this problem?
Is it a Google or Samsung problem. Can it be remedied?

Well if you want, you could stop your phone going into deep sleep and have less battery life

Nah, don't wanna clock it up.
But is this a common problem or just some unfortunate people that have it?

I have same problem with any stock or custom rom and is verry annoying.
It's normal. I use CM 9 and I'll hit the home button on my sleeping phone now...and it took around 1 second to wake up.
There isn't anything you can do about it.
As Riz said last month, would you rather your phone deep sleep & conserve battery when you're not using it & take a second to wake up or would you rather have a permanent wakelock & resultant battery drain in order to have it wake up in a few tenths of a second ?
I mean, we are talking about a second here. Not half a minute or something.
Yay! You got a new sig!
It always makes me wonder what people expect with these threads....it's like when you wake a pc up - it isn't instantaneous...and is a second really too long to wait?
Yeah I couldn't resist ;-)
Yep you're right. People do expect too much sometimes, as you said, how long does a PC take to wake up from hibernation ? Phone takes no time in comparison.

thanks mate for the answer and quick response.
wish i could get all my questions answered so quiclky about this phone
got so many issues with it at the moment seriously thinking about going back to mt htc ones.....really want to give the gs3 a chance though.
Thats no problem mate.
What else is up drop me a list and ill see if I can help

hope i dont get in trouble for listing stuff here lol...but i really appreciate your help.
I have a gs3 that was supplied by orange uk. I dont know if it has orange specific software on it (the box and phone seem unbranded) but im having several issues with it.
I have been trying to ask the question if i have the latest firmware or if there is one i can update to in a bid to solve the issues i have.
It seems i dont have the option on the phone (under the about phone section) to manually check and kies says no update available however i would be happy to flash with odin if i knew there was something latter that i could use as im getting to the point where ive nearly had enough of the phone.
if there are options to sort it out then willing to try as there are things that i really like about it.
will post a screen shoot with the fimrware info etc and anything you know about it (dont worry if you dont) would be great.

regarding the branding when you boot your S3 is there an orange boot screen?
Ok so I looked over your screenshot and there are difference in are settings as you can see here, looks like are kernel versions are different.
And what are these problems you've been having, as that may be just down to the device.
sorry for answering your questions with more but it will help me answer your questions
SkillfulMmd said:

And if you could send a screen shot with your kernel number and stuff that would be great, I received a firmware update today but im un-branded so that may have something to do with it as branded devices are normally behind.

again thanks for the quick reply
does the screen shot i posted prior to your post not give that information or do i need to look elsware for it?
No my phone does not have any orange splashscreen or any branding on the phone itself (however it was supplied direct by orange). It came in a normall samsung box with no orange stuff all over it however it was sealed with orange sticker on it.
problems so far are:-
1) very laggy in and out of app to homescreen.
2) lots of 'sorry not responding' in various apps (video player, messaging etc)
3) inconsistant battery drain....yesterday i got through the whole day with 50% spare (unplugged at 6.30, charged at 10.45pm) today i was down to 25% by 2.00pm (unplugged at 6.30) nothing different done in usage.
there have been other things but these spring to mind at the moment.
Have to be honest and say its really ruining the exsperience at the moment. My htc one s is so smooth and quick. I had the gs3 on preorder and really looked forward to it (knowing how good sgs2 was) had high hopes for this phone. I really think lots of these problems are possibly down to being quad core as i owned the htc one x for a week and had similar issues.
I'm to sure about your handset it may be unbranded then, you will have to ring Ornage and find out though.
And yeah I updated my post as you posted your as I wasn't expecting you to post a screenshot so quick.
and as far as the issues go, I haven't heard of any of them in the S3 yet other than the UI redraw issue. The battery will need to be recalibrated by the sounds of it this is easy enough to do if you would like to do that?

thanks again for your help
a guy on another thread has said that i have orange branded firmware on it and thats why i dont have the option to manually check for update. He has said i need to flash to the latest uk generic branded firmware.
I am going to give this a try (downloading at the moment) just hope i dont have problems with the radios etc.
thanks for the help with the battery issue however i am assuming that this will all be reset when i flash?
Yeah then you can re-calibrate it and it should all be good.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help mate,
good luck
thanks mate.

Xperia Sola Touch Screen Issues

I have an Xperia Sola having issues with the touch screen, basically it does not allow me to unlock it, I have to use the camera button and take a picture to do it, also, some parts of the screen are unresponsive some times, I read on the sony mobile official forum that this is supposed to be a firmware issue. Also when I try to personalize the screen like adding or removing widgets, you know you need to touch and hold until the widget options appears, that does not work, it will not recognize the touch hold, neither the touch flow works.
It appears the harware is perfectly fine, no screen issues like dead pixels or leaks.
Most people say they took it to the service center and they told them the phone was fine and updated the firmware.
The problem is that If I try to use the PC companion or the main sony website it says mine is using the latest version.
Even thou I reinstalled the official firmware, same issue.
My device is an Asian device, when you restore it, the menus are in chinese, So I'm assuming is a HK phone.
I live in Costa Rica and I know this device has a latin american version.
Does anyone has a firmware that is not the asian one for this phone, maybe I can try flashing another stock rom for this.
I will appreciate if someone can tell me what can this issue be.
Thanks.
And yes, I'm a noob and did not find any related topics about this issue in this site.

Xperia Sola
:screwy: Why so serious!!:screwy:
sola
hi,
me too is having the same issue.I live in India and many users here is also facing the same issue..There is no solid pointer to isolate if its a software or hardware issue.However there is a temporary solution to this problem and is testified by many people including me..all you need to do is keep the phone in direct sunlight for 5-10 minutes.It will work normal for couple of days depending on the ambient temperature and stuff.It will again recur ,all you need to do is sunbath it again
This is not a permanent solution..hope it helps
has anyone found the reason and permanent solution why this touch screen problem keeps happening again after few days ?
after giving the phone to service center has the problem reappeared for again ??

xperiA sola touch screen issue
i have some touch screen problem in my xperia sola
but whenever the upper part of phone screen dosent work i clean it with screen protector cloth and it works fine

i think screen protector might be the problem in your case.

I had the same problem with ICS, but i downgrade to GB. First I did the "sunbath", and works, but some apps started to crush. So I decided to go back to GB. Until now, it works flawless. I lose a couple of functions, but it's better than the "sunbath".
UPDATE1: After a couple of weeks the problem came back. Anybody, got a solution other than throw to the garbage the phone?
UPDATE2: Well, I really don't know what makes appears the touch screen problem again, but since I install GB, I got only once that the screen didn´t work and only for a short time. I've been using for a couple of days and I didn't have any trouble at all. I'm guessing that is like a bug software problem, but if someone find a final solution, please post it.
Hey!
Hey guys. I also have the same problem. My service test in touch screen was so terrible. Also behind delete button in keyboard. Lower part right side of the screen. What shall we do?
Additions.
Haha. I forgot the attchmnts
same problem
Same Problem here to.
Anyone know something about this problem?
Anybody got a workaround?
Thanks
Another one with the same problem, mine in the low right side of the screen. Im using the glove mode otherwise its impossible to use it. Somebody with JB, which disables glove mode, has resolve the problem??Im asking this because while its not responding, I restart the phone an enter CWM, and there, its responses perfectly.
So, somebody with this problem, has flashed the any port of JB and resolve this issue??
ok, I´ve tested with JB and it became more responsive but also having the problem.
I left the phone with direct sunligth and now it is ok WTF!!??
have you tried calibrating it? there's an app at the play store if i'm not mistaken..
I have tried everything but 1 thing worked. Sunbathing your sola will recalibrate touchscrren. I dont know how it work but it sure does the job. I'm afraid i have to sell my phone cause i dont want any problems. Now i'm using galaxy s3 mini

SunBathing Works!!!
Hi, Sunbathing really works as a last effort for Xperia Sola
It fixed mine and the time needed for your phone under the sun is approx..1 hour
Dont worry about the battery
