So since yesterday my Galaxy s6 is doing stuff on its on, For example i can have the keyboard up and random letters will be typed with out me typing it. Or on the home screen sometimes random apps may open without me wanting to open and so on.

Any way to fix this problem?

Never heard of this before. Try and mater reset. Hopefully, it's something simple. If not return/exchange the phone

Did you add a screen protector or case that wraps on the screen?
It sounds like the screen is picking up clicks of some sort. Short of that, I'd consider exchanging it, as it could be a defective screen.

I thought it was my screen protector at first so i removed it. Still had the same problem. I just wiped my phone so i will see if that fixed it or not.

Mine has decided that it wants the default notification to be SILENT.

I switch it back to my preferred notification but after about half an hour it will go on silent again. The volume level is where it should be but the notification sound is being changed.

Not sure what's going on with it.

Did you give your screen a proper wipe/cleaning? Maybe there's a thin layer of adhesive still there? Just thinking out loud, not sure what else to suggest.

Sounds like the beginning of a horror movie... :-S

You should definitely waste no time on getting it replaced.

If this doesn't work, call tech support. Sounds like an exchange to me. Just a guess.
