Help Touch screen issue - touch location accuracy gets messed up occasionally

[mi_canuck]

Super happy with the Nexus One... just minor issue is that on occasion - and not sure what triggers it - but the touch location seems to end being below where i actually touch on the screen, which of course causes erratic typing and erroneous screen clicks. A quick cycle of the sleep/power button (not turning unit off, just sleep/blank and back on...) seems to solve the problem.

Hopefully an update will resolve this issue, as it seems to be a software issue.


cheers

There are a couple more threads on this here. I believe it has something to do with battery. I had this happening 3-4 times a day and I would restart phone to fix. I then 2 days ago removed battery for at least 2 minutes, I wiped contacts on battery with a towel and then placed it back in and not 1 problem since then.

I do exactly the same thing- sleep and then active again and no more alignment/touch problems... easy fix.
