I cannot get rid of what appears to be grid lines... at the top of the screen is a bar with with y and x and the numbers change as you move your finger on the screen creating a grid as you move
It is like a free tx at the same time ie a blue line is left wherever i run my finger no matter what app I am in.
I did have the app "Free tx" which I have deleted but hasn't:mad: solved the problem
Please can anyone help me?

Are you on a rom?

If so, check development settings/Or something in settings. Maybe its something like Show screen updates.

I got my samsung S Duos couple of days back and I too had the same problem. While trying to explore, accidentally I could have selected that check box. Now got rid of it. Thanks lurkin.:cool:

Settings> developer options> uncheck show pointer locations

Welcome to the forums!
Have you tried a reboot?

I had the same problem and phoned tech support and they said it sounded like a soft ware issue and I might have to send my phone in:(. I tried this and it fixed it completely!!!!! thank you so much!!!!!!!!!:D
