tried the last update automatically (which fails: system shows Android version 4.2.2 but updater says I’m using Cherry). Tried several times to reinstall 1.8 and then 1.6 again. Same problems:
When I try to open the side-menu touching in the middle of the screen of the left side the menu appears and when I try to slide into one of the 5 links the menu disappears immediately. So at the moment I have to access every single app via system settings/apps. Extremely annoying.
When restarting the phone I can not access the 0-number on the virtual keyboard on the right side in vertical mode. Only number 9 is responding.
Please check out my post on the “Buttons pressed randomly” thread, to check whether the unresponsiveness of the touch screen this is a hardware issue or not.
Okay, seems the Fairphone has a hardware defect. Almost the whole right side doesn’t respond anymore (stays “red”) and the left side responds with random lines (which explains the strange behaviour when trying to open the menu).
Okay, but how can it be that the defect appears exactly after updating the FP to “Kola Nut”?
Hi, my fairphone after owning it for 1 year and half with basically no problems, now the right side of the screen is very insensitive. I have to do the same movement many times, sometimes with nothing happening. What should I do?? It is very annoying.
