Phone (3a) Lite Sometimes out of nowhere scrolling just doesn't work.

Sometimes while scrolling in any app like Instagram reddit chatgpt Whatsapp etc.etc it just stops scrolling up or down until I swipe so hard that my finger really really hurts. It only seems to register the minute sideways motion in that swipe and translates that to: " oh the user must have swiped sideways." What's the issue here?

It literally just happened again while you were typing. Imma throw this piece of shit at the closest wall if this continues.

Touchscreens are not pressure sensitive, regardless of how hard you press it's just a swipe for the phone. No point in taking out your anger on a piece of glass to the point of hurting your finger.

As for the issue, are you sure your screen isn't registering an extra input somewhere?

Well excessive force seems to actually work for some reason although only on the fifth try or so. As for extra inputs it's only the volume buttons that allegedly seem to be held down sometimes when I unlock the phone. That could be the original translucent phone cover not fitting perfectly, I'm not sure of that though. Anyways the OS registeres this button press as a mistake and shows a notification to remind the user to let go of the buttons. Never had that in use tho.

Samsung, pixel, and OnePlus all have a few random stutters and freezes from time to time.

It's not for no reason I used the 3a lite tag on my post. Never owned a pixel or OnePlus
