Touch Screen Shifted! HELP!

seems like the screen is out of alinement, would a reset/restore fix it?

 

I have not run into this, but before you assume it's a hardware issue, try a hard restart, if that doesn't do anything try doing a restore from iTunes.

 

Every time I use my iPhone in landscape mode, I have to type on the top half of the letter I want to actually type. Otherwise, it doesn't register correctly.

I just assumed that was the way it works. My vertical typing is spot-on, though, so it's not an alignment issue.

 

This might sound obvious, but i've ran across this problem many and all i do is breathe on the screen and wipe it off with my shirt & it's as good as new! Just try it....

 

i had the exact same problem a couple weeks ago. i too tried a reset and a restore, both of which didn't help. took it into the apple store, where they switched it right out. i didn't post about it because i thought (hoped) it was a very rare fluke, and didn't want to freak anyone out. now i'm kind of worried to hear that this has happened at least one other time..

anyone else have this problem yet? or can we keep considering this a very rare glitch?

 

Bought my phone on July 1. July 7 got it exchange for a new one because vertical keyboard not working. Today (July 30) had to go to Apple Store to get repair (since more than 2 weeks) because 1/4 of screen starting from bottom not working. I couldn't press Phone, Email, Safari or iPod. Couldn't "slide to unlock" either.

So now I have to wait 3-4 days, and had to pay $30 for a loaner (no choice since cancelled contract from US Cellular so no more old phone).

So that is 2 phones is 5 weeks with touch problems.

 

Pay for a loaner, that is bogus. Is this apple's policy now?

 

Wow. You shouldn't have to pay for a loaner and I'm surprised they didn't swap it for you.

Actually, I inquired about a problem and was told Applecare would send me a loaner, I'd then send mine out for repair. I just bought it 2 days ago. I'm going to a store tomorrow to see if they'll swap first.
