    I've had the torch since it was released. about a week ago, i noticed some weird behavior with the touch screen typing. When the keyboard is on the screen, if i touch the 'p' key it would also think im touching the 'q' key. likewise any other key to the right of the 'q'. This happens on all 3 rows of the keys.

    A battery pull usually solves this but its becoming a pain in the ***.
    Torch running 6.0.0.246

    thanks

    I'm running .337 and am seeing the very same issues. A reboot also solves it but it remains annoying!

    Have removed recent software installs but it made no difference... Seems to occur every couple of days... May have to resort to a wipe :-(

    I think it may have something to do with using the media player because I only started using it to listen to music. Still trying to isolate this

    Mine has become worse... kicks in within the hour of a battery pull now... think it may be a hardware issue?

    I've wiped it, downgraded to .246 clean with no apps and it still happens... same with .337 clean with no apps...

    Thinking warranty replacement time (#4!)

    @vapour_lock did you resolve yours? any tips?

    OB.

    Sounds to me like a hardware problem. Ive had my torch since launch day and have no issues with the touch screen on any of the OS builds to date.

    I just received my warranty replacement (no green dot so I think it's actually a new one and not refurb) and all working fine again now with all 3rd party apps loaded...
