Sorry for not using better thread name, because i don't know how to phrase it.
Anyway, the problem started few months ago. When I unlock the phone, it randomly starts pressing in the down left/right corner, or when trying to type, presses random buttons (like when i press k keyboard goes crazy and starts typing aaassaadaa). The thing is, it happens randomly(usually after i haven't used phone for a while) and after 2-5 mins it works normally.
I don't believe that it's software problem because it happened also on 1.6 and I did 2 soft repairs. But if it is hardware problem, why does it happen so randomly?
Also the phone has fell twice and has 2 cracks in the screen, but they are in the upper part of the screen.

I have this problem with my Hero for a couple of months already. My lowest part of the screen doesn't react - basically you must press at least 10 times on "Phone" to get it started, and with the the first row of icons, let's say Gmail, it's the same. Also, the home-screen is flipping left and right whenever it wants and however it wants, basically it means that when I leave the phone with it's home-screen unlocked, it starts scrolling back and forth by itself. I sent the phone 3 times to the operator's service, and every time they are replacing the screen unit with a new one. Then it behaves OK for 3-4 days and then it starts again! Has anyone had the same problem too? Is there any software bug fix?
It's a know issue with Hero screens. The glue between the digitzer and screen heats up so they become loose and unresponsive.
It's a hardware issue, send to your operator or you can fix it yourself. Instructions are on this forum somewhere.
Today I had a call from my provider's call center - a charming female voice announced me that my device will be replaced with a new one. What a wonderful news for the end of the day
this is random but, the touchscreen stops responding occasionally
specifically when i'm playing Mario Kart and holding the A button in for extended periods of time (n64oid)
it's not even when the system is hot it's really peculiar
actually now that i think about it this has happened a few times when i was on my homescreen as well where the touchscreen decided to stop responding yet if i pushed the buttons it still operated
anyone else seen this?
i was hoping it was ram related because i just used bloat freezer and cleaned up the ram nicely
The original X2 i had did this extremely often right out of the box (activation was a PITA)... as in it would work for 5-10 seconds (30 if i was lucky) and the touchscreen would "freeze" while all buttons and everything else were working as normal. Power button to make screen go off/on fixed it, but it would just happen 10 seconds later. Idk how bad yours is but if it is common enough see about a replacement (or hope OTA comes soon and fixes it for ya)
I'm Not Sure What It's Related To, Because I Can't Replicate It To A Certain Time Or Point Sometimes When Opening An App It Doesn't Recognize I Tapped The Icon Or When Texting Sometimes It Doesn't Know I Was Touching The Screen. Could Be Just Another Bug In The Software Which We Hope In The Future Will Be Resolved.
Its got the same feature as the atrix if one screen is pressed for more than 20secs in the same spot the screen turns off. Motorola claims to do this to protect against water damage
Today my Atrix 4G started acting like a ghost was controlling it. It can be just sitting there with the display on, and somt part of the screen will be pressed and a program started. I have Elixir 2 buttons, Multicon buttons, and the regular app buttons installed on the display by the basic ATT controls. All three have had buttons "pressed" in a seemingly random way. I have rebooted several times. The phone is quite unusable.
Then I also get my regular reboot problem. The phone will be fine all day, but at some point, it just starts rebooting every 2 minutes. The little LED in the upper right corner turns often purple (it is usually green.) I get the process stopped message a lot then, too. It happens even if it is fully charged.
Part of your problem can be after having widgets on screen if you then froze the program which is for the widget the widget remains but as a ghost. You don't see it but its there. I had this issue with something like beautiful widgets and it played hell with my phone. Just a thought.

No wifi, nothing frozen
I have not frozen any programs. It happened after several reboots. I also did not have wifi turned on.
Thanks for your suggestions

I have this issue too, but it happens at random times and I can stop it by turning the screen off then on.
I think it might be the digitizer going bad.

Mine was accompanied by dead zones. I had to rotate the phone to get certain spots and keys on the keyboard to register. Sometimes pressing a spot on the lower left side registered on the upper right.
When I finally replaced the digitizer, I found the left side ribbon had detached and was being held in place by pressure. if the ribbon moved around, it caused spurious connections. I even had one ROM install itself with the Aroma installer because it kept thinking I was hitting the "next" button.
Digitizer replacement fixed.
Will replace phone, need to copy old phone to new
I think my phone needs a new digitizer. The wty expires in a week, so I'm going to a service center tmw. Thanks to all who made these useful suggestions.
Do I need to unroot it before I return it?
Do you know how to ghost my old phone to my new one?
Hello Everyone,
I bought my cousin's xperia z2 two days ago its a great piece but so bad for me i couldn't enjoy a full week without problems
the screen becomes unresponsive when i hold two fingers for some time (15-30 seconds), I've discovered this issue when I was playing GTA San Andreas and kept holding the screen, during normal use this issue happens very rarely, but I think what's causing it is when i hold two fingers for some time it becomes unresponsive (tried it on home and other apps its not related to a specific app), locking/unlocking the device fix the issue and everything goes back to normal till i hold two fingers again........ its really irritating and i don't know what to do.
I've tried to boot into safe mode and the issue stills there and I really can't tell whether it's a software or hardware issue .
About the phone :
- Hardware : it has a replaced display and vibrator not working
- Software : no system changes have been made, everything is stock!!
Hello, I have a very strange problem. Swiping on touch screen is repelling( not page scrolling but in apps or games where swiping is a key thing. Feels like holding same poles magnets at each other, the force is changing, SOMETIMES when the battery is near death less than 15% or just randomly(so rare) the force gets weeker or completely dissapears. Every time I turn the device off for at least a day or two its back to normal ( swiping) but usually for a short period of time. What could It be ? This is not software related I have this problem for like 6 years now( tried to send one of the devices for the warranty repair few times but they didn't find anything wrong) It effects every smartphone or Ipad I buy, swiping feels exactly the same!! Its so frustrating!! Sorry for my english
