Hi narual,
I have the page-turning issue with my Aura HD on a recurrent basis, though it doesn't seem to be consistent. There are periods when they do occur pretty much every time I touch the device, and other times when it won't happen for days on end. I've come to wonder whether it might be due to micro-movements of my fingers in tapping or swiping -- I'd always thought I had fairly steady hands, no apparent trembles, but I'm puzzled that I do get these problems but others don't appear to report them very much. I make a point of keeping the screen and the inside of the bezel dust-free, but I still get the problems.
So I do wonder if it could possibly be firmware-related. Over the last few months I seem to have become the Flying Dutchman of Factory Resets, having had faulty hardware replaced under warranty by also-faulty hardware twice now, with more than one failed firmware upgrades on registering the devices (through USB, not wireless). But I've consistently found that once the firmware is successfully installed, there's a grace period of maybe a month after a new installation when these problems don't show ... but then they always seem to creep back.
At least, that's how it seems to me. Today, I was getting a new one: taps on the screen would bring up actions that would seem completely unrelated to where the contact occurred -- for instance, a swipe from the left side of the screen to turn back a page brought up the font dialog. Weird.
Maybe it
is just my finger movements, but unless someone else uses my device and has no problems at the time I'm seeing these issues, it's hard to isolate the cause.
