I have had the 3vo since monday and on two occasions the screen became unresponsive. While stuck in that condition the 2nd time I noticed the bottom half of the screen was indeed responsive. i navigated that way until the issue disappeared on its own. I then became concerned enough to search out if anyone else was having similar issues. I ran across this while searching for the official htc forum. Basically the EVO 4G and the incredible had the SAME ISSUE.
http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/94/t/3264.aspx
I have searched htc's site and xda and haven't seen anyone else reporting the same issue on the 3vo. I then called htc support and of course they weren't "aware of the problem on any of those phones".
So I'm thinking of calling it a factory defect and returning the phone for a replacement. Anyone with more info to add?
Edit:
Found this as well.

I can also confirm this. Lasted about a minute. Noticed it after I plugged my headphones in.

It has happened twice to me while trying to search my concact list. I just backed out and opened people again and it worked fine.
What were you running when it was unresponsive?
I believe I was in the launcher. Also, phone was in my hands.
Had the happen 1st time ever tonight. And it was the same...the bottom half was responding and buttons but not the rest of the screen. Can't recall which apps I had open. No headphones though.

Uh oh...... I hope it's a small batch.
It has happened to me too a few time. Usually when i select kill all under task manager.
I've had it happen once or twice, I think both times I was opening a forum thread with lots of embedded images ie a show your screenshot thread.

I have seen this as well a few times
The phone thinks that the notification menu is "dragged" down and it keeps you from tapping any icons or flipping through the screens.
To solve it without rebooting just pull down the notification menu and slide it back up and everything works fine again.
Definately a bug with Sense 3.0

DEFINITELY not what I saw. I was able to do everything except the top half of my screen was totally unresponsive.
It has randomly happened here too.
Ok i thought I was just crazy, but I have been having the same issue. It has gotten better and haven't had it happen in a while but It's a pain when it does.

You aren't able to click on any of the icons that the "pull down" notification menu would be blocking until you "repull" down the notification menu and slide it back up.
I was just offering how I was able to "workaround" the issue on my phone.
If this doesn't work for you, fine.. I was just trying to help with the experiences I have had.

Sorry. No animosity intended.
Same here..
Able to do everything except the top half of my screen was totally unresponsive.
And also the back button (capacitive button) is not bright enough as others (Home, Menu, Search).
Already sent to HTC for the screen replacement, but have to wait till next week because the screen no stock..
- Reboot the phone does fix the problem, but it will happen again & again..
- Already performed hard reset as requested by HTC cust service rep, but same thing happened within 24 hours, in clear system.
Unrooted EVO 3D..
I also experience touch screen problems, i just turn the screen off and back on and it works again for a short period of time.
Hi! I've an issue on my xperia mini pro.
More than often the back key (which is a touch sensitive key) stops working.
I can't resolve this definitely. Things I tried:
- reset settings (does not work)
- total reset (works for a couple of weeks than the problem comes back)
- killing services with android system cleaner (works sometimes, I see that maybe is related to the process "Home of sony ericsson" -the stock launcher v2.1.x)
- switched to go launcher ex (worked for a full day, the problem came back)
- prevent various apps and services to startup (did not work)
- remove various apps and services (didn't work)
- update firmware to 2.3.4 (only solved the problem of the black screen that won't unlock)
what in the world should I do to fix this tedious issue?
tnx for answers, forgive me for my spaghetti english

Rom is pre-rooted, you will need to unlock bootloader and flash a different kernel.
Hardware keyboard will not be working, you'll need to get the files from the CM7 stable build for this.
I would not endorse going down this route unless you want to be running CM7 anyway, and there is no guarantee it will help.

thank you! You're right: I don't want to flash the previous version just to set up cm7! Not cause I don't like it but because with the previous version of the stock kernel I was having a much more big problem: the black screen (some others had the same problem).
Maybe I'll go on this way, waiting for ICS hoping it'll fix up everything!
btw, how's my english?
Maybe u r sweating or ur finger is kinda wet when u press it,our phone is unresponsive to fluid,except u buy an active
xperia mini pro! not active!
that would be true for the settings key too!
I think is a sort of bug of the rom... I'm getting it very often! damn!
I noticed that sometimes the screen light "shakes", like a vibration, and so the lights behing the touch keys...
the light sensor reacts to reflections of the light and shadows I make when using the phone. This is a minor thing but the back key sometimes makes really hard using the phone!

I got force closed when setting a calendar entry. It set the entry but force closed in the process so it "sorta worked"
Alarm, open app, navi, texting, posting to facebook, asking questions, etc....works great on S2.
I got a massive scare though when flashing it. I hit reboot the screen dimmed and then went all funky colors. I had to rip the battery. It booted back up fine into CWM, rebooted again, and phone is working fine. I'm going to chuck that up as random.
I get s-voice to work, and well, but I don't see it listed in my app drawer. The only way to bring it up is to long press the search button. Any ideas?

Big Problem!
I'm running Mystic's Glory v4.0. I just dl'ed this Svoice zip to my phone. The ROM Manager asked if I wanted to install and I followed the prompts. The opening Samsung Galaxy SII screen comes on, then it goes black and nothing happens.
I popped out the battery a few times and tried to reboot, but same thing happens: Intro screen then black.
Any ideas?

Try wiping cache and dalvik with a fix permissions for good measure. If that doesn't work sounds like a reflash of from is in order.
PS. Try flashing it manually in recovery instead of using rom manager. I've seen it do all kinds of weird ****.

Thanks for the fast reply!
Can you give me a little more detailed instructions. How do I get into my CWM to wipe cache and dalvik with a dead phone? Or how do I reflash with a dead phone?
In fact, how do I get into recovery? I hold down the Vol Down button and the power button and instead of taking me to recovery, it goes to:
Warning!!
A custom OS can cause critical problems...
I can then either Vol Up to Continue or Vol Down to Restart phone. If I press Vol Down, say problem. Vol UP takes me to another screen that says:
Odin Mod, Downloading...Do not turn off target!!
Please advise.
Thanks!!!

Sounds like you went to download mode...
To get to CWM recovery, hold vol up, vol down, and power until CWM recovery menu shows up. You can do this on a phone that is on or off.

Hi!
I'm using a recent CM9 nightly with default kernel.
I would like to have your opinion : about 3/4 a week my SGS3 is "stuck" when it's locked : impossible to wake up using home or power button, the screen stays black.
The weird thing is that when it happens, the phone is not frozen : I can still hear music on the headphones and control volume using Up/Down buttons.
Sometimes I let it stuck and receive a notification some minutes later and the phone magically can be unlocked again, screen wakes when I push Home button.
Very weird and annoying when that happens.
My question is : what do you think it could be? An app? How can I debug this and know what prevents the screen to wake up when that happens?
Thanks.

Thanks, but is that the kind of easy answer you all tell when you don't know the exact answer?
When I installed CM9 a week ago, I did do a full wipe...
I think that next time it happens, I will try to connect my SGS3 on USB and do a adb logcat, maybe I'll find useful information.

Having a similar problem to yourself. Installed CM9 rom had a play and then went back to omegaV9 performing a full wipe using the instructions on this site before reflashing.
Since then when my phone is locked screen off then i unlock either via swipe or using security code (digits ) it looks like the phone unlocks but sort of does a warm boot with black screen for a few seconds with the two buttons down the bottom light up.
When it starts it looks like all the apps have stopped and are restarting again.
I re flashed again omega 9 thought i had it sorted but it started playing up again this evening.
If anyone has any ideas please post..
Hi, I'm a newbie here. I also exprience this problem with my samsung GT-i9300. I hoping to see a fix with this problem.
This forum has been so helpful to new android users. Thank you guys.
i charge it at night and when i wake up battery is at 93%, a 7% discharge in about 8 hours which is reasonable. from the last few days its at 53% when i wake up.
have checked all battery apps etc and cant find any faulty app.
i need to force restart it and after some time it again hangs.
factory reset also did not solve the issue.
pls suggest what to do
What ROM are you using.?

Post your battery stats here
1. Run System Panel App from google play - just have a look on all the processes and see if any App is hogging the memory. - Just check if a process called android media process is running and % utilization.
2. Goto recovery and wipe your cache.
3. Download Motomizer and wipe battery stats.
4. Check if you have given permission to any location based App to access your GPS ( FB, Google Now, Maps etc)
See if it helps.

Back your data ,go into stock recovery and do a factory reset.
Reset will require a minimum battery level of 25%. If you are unable to perform a reset, please charge for 20-30 minutes and try reset again.
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEY together + POWER KEY .
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to SELECT
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL DOWN key for 5-10 seconds
6. While still holding the VOL DOWN key tap and release the VOL UP key.
Tip: Try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 6, do a force reboot by pressing the power Key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
7. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
8. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to Wipe data / factory reset and the POWER Key to SELECT this option.
9. Use the VOL DOWN key again to select YES - delete all user data and press the POWER key to CONFIRM
10. Once the Formatting is complete, press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT
11. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence .

i did factory reset twice, cleared dalvik cache etc using the method above but did not do the wipe data option coz the usb was not being recognised by the pc. i took my phone to the guy who had programmed it initially , he told me if i do a wipe data i will loose all cdma settings and there will be no way to reprogramme it unless i get the usb fixed. i took the phone to gafar and showed it to a few guys, one shop asked me 3500 bucks and i was like Hell NO !!! shop # 111 asked me 800 bucks and i said yeah go ahead, he took an hour or so and later said that he changed the usb port and all but still pc did not detect it. came back sad. Seems there is hardware issue but surprisingly the usb port charges my mobile but does not recognise it.
now decided to use it till it is dies. am at a dead end now. had i not purchased a xperia tablet Z, i would have not have thought twice to go for samsung S4 cdma @35k. but seems i will have to wait a bit. Purchased a new battery for my backup phone moto glam XT800.
Let see how long does this droid razr lasts.
latest update > got my razr back to full glory
nor is it heating nor any unnecessary battery drain
i had lost root and was able to root it again
all is well that ends well
