Hello, Not sure if only mine iPhone X got this issue, which is ghost touch on my screen! When I browse either news page or Facebook. It always pop up ghost touch! Anyone here can advise? I got video to proof..
I have had the X for three weeks now, just updated to 11.2 last night, but began having "ghost touch" issues with the screen early yesterday morning. I've had a case on since day one, and I have NOT dropped the phone. I do not live in cold weather, so it's not THAT bug. The main problem here is that when I hover my thumb or finger a few millimeters over the middle row of icons on the home screen, WITHOUT ACTUALLY touching it, the phone begins to go wild and open and close random apps, and scroll up and down by itself inside the app. It's as if a ghostly hand is trying to push every button as fast as possible. This happens several times per hour now. This screen issue seems to affect the middle row of icons on the home screen, as these are the apps that keep opening and closing by itself. I have a video of the issue happening as well, and it shows me trying to close the apps and the apps opening themselves again and switching to different home screens.
I have the same issue with my phone after the ios 11.2 update. It’s very annoying!!
Video of the issue.
Yes, miguel0oo! Your video looks exactly like the video I recorded of my ghost touch issue. I am having the exact same problem.
I don’t know what’s going on. Also I don’t want to get my phone replaced with a refurbished one.
Bought last night. Brought it home and has this problem. Phone totally unusable brand new. Terrible!
Update: Exchanged the brand new (defective) phone for another brand new phone today at Verizon Store. I am appreciative of the excellent customer service I received.
Yeah, it would be nicer to get the serial number box along with the phone.
Do you have any other information? The links only refer to software issues and do not refer to the referenced problem of the ghost screen touch...
got same issue on a brand new one. opened support claim and sending it now to apple.
I also captured the crazy ghost touch behavior on another iPhone just in case. It certainly provides irrefutable evidence that there is an issue.
Returned back to re-seller for guarantee case. Will share more details once receive it from re-seller.
I am running into similar issue. Apple support consultant says this is the first time they have seen it. I think Apple is trying to hide the fact of problem with iPhone.
I thought I was the only one. Its crazy that you dont even touch the screen and it goes wild. Its only like you said in the middle row of apps. I wonder how many others are experiencing this...
Had the same issue. Seemed to happen after I updated to 11.2.5
Called apple and the hard reset worked.
Volume up
Volume down
Then hold right button until you see the apple.
Has been perfect since.
