N9 Screen goes berserk (random presses)
 
My N9 acts like it receives random screen presses and swipes even when my fingers are nowhere near it.

I've been putting up with it for a while but it is happening more and more often and the phone is becoming unusable. I keep my phone in a leather case and there is no obvious sign of damage.

I've tried cleaning the screen with a dry tissue but it had no noticeable effect. Anyone seen similar symptoms? Even better, has anyone fixed it somehow?

Failing better ideas, I think I'm going to have to return my device to Nokia for replacement (it's still under guarantee).

Thanks for the link JonWW - I've been quite conservative with my device (not installing N9tweak etc..).

Looks like the device is going back to Nokia (they better not replace it with a Lumia!)

I had that problem on my N950 once, I can't exactly remember how I did manage to fix it, but I remember that It wasn't something about SW, but -I may be wrong- it was about my case or something in my pockets. Does it behave that way, when it's standing idle on a table?
