Hi, I'm new here so I hope I'm doing this right. So I've had my S7 since they came out and it's a great phone except this glitch that's getting worse. It used to be only every few months or so. I use Swype keyboard, and every now and then it would go crazy. I'd start to swype and it would lag for a second then register the touch and start swyping gibberish on the complete other side of the screen. Only restarting the phone would fix it, but then it would be fine for a while. Lately it's getting worse and more frequent. Today I had to restart it three times to reply to texts. I thought it may be the Swype keyboard so I switched to Samung, same thing. A few times it took me forever to get it to restart because once it went crazy it wouldn't register my touch on the 'restart' on the screen. I dread the day it does this and I have to wait for the battery to die. It always starts when I'm swyping a text reply but until I restart it the touch sensor will be out of whack on most things. I'm still paying on this phone and can't afford to get a new one, and I love it otherwise.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue and found any fixes. I thought about doing a factory reset but I'm not sure if it would help and I don't want to have to redo everything unless it will help.
