Final argument., 17 Jul 2023Some Mobile dealers import these phone from japan ,they pay... moreThe second hand phones that sold outside Japan are mainly refurbished phones from China (yes, China). I know because I look into Alibaba / Aliexpress and they have refurbished phones with Japanese Serial Number / Specs.

No, they're not legal. I know because in my country you have to register the IMEI to the government server. Now, there are some legal seller but they're expensive.

Now, if you want to buy used / second hand / new Japanese phones, you have to use proxy services / forwarder. I buy phones directly from Japan and it's completely safe and legal and it works for 3 years now.

These days all of Japanese phones are unlocked because Japanese govt issued a bill that Japanese Mobile Companies have to unlock their phones to other network.

Hope this help for people who want to buy Japanese Phones

    Dead touchscreen is like a default faulty with R5G. Even the ones which still in Japan, they're so many phones have this issue. And the area of dead are the same: Top and Bottom.

                Optional, 15 Sep 2023Hello I'm the new gang of the sharp aquos r5g touch pa... morewelcome to AFDC (aquos faulty display club) .

                CEO here ,
                The problem (real problem) is that they messed up the resolution on the device ,so after update some part of touch screen stop working, I will suggest buying a new device (I know it's hard especially in our country you know,but that's a hard choice you need to do) , because i have replaced the entire touch panel (order from AliExpress) but the touch problem return after 2 week's of replacing it , but if you still want to use the device and have no option then there are 2 option

                if You're using this device for gaming only ,they buy a gamepad and play games using gamepad (Emulator ) but some game ban you for using gamepad,so check it first .

                2nd and last option,there is an app on playstore "Resolution Changer — Uses ADB" ,after installing this app on phone ,you need to install Adb on PC , i hope you at least know what adb is , after that you need to go into adb folder , press shift , open folder menu , click on open command window here , after adb is active (show your device) you need to type the command shown in the app , after you type the command ,this will give the app permission to change screen resolution.

                after that take a screenshot of full screen ,crop the screenshot up to where the screen is working, (1440*2400 ) or something,i Don't remember exact resolution, out the resolution and click apply.

                after that your screen will be Reduced to useable area only , the unusable area will always be black , but remember each day one more pixel will be dead on screen so you need to keep changing resolution per week.

                but brother one day half screen will be useless, i hope you don't see that day ,but ,that day i have no solution.

                  Hello I'm the new gang of the sharp aquos r5g touch panel cannot be touch.
                  I have this phone about 9 months and suddenly this just without warning cannot be touch 😞. first it was at the top of the screen and couple of week later it the down screen.

                  I have. A few questions.
                  Are there new info of why this phone does this.
                  If so, can it be fix .
                  Is this a software issue or hardware issue.can someone from android 10 tell me if your phone have this kind of problems.
                  (I want to know if it's just some connector issue that can be fix without changing the whole screen)

                    welcome to club , 11 Sep 2023welcome to aquos faulty display club. we are happy to have... moreno wonder why used japanese phones are so damn cheap, there are so many trade offs.
