I have an unlocked streak with streakdroid 1.6.1. My touch screen seems to work fine when the phone is unlocked but when the phone is locked the touch screen never works right. When I try to unlock the streak part of the screen doesn't work. Some times it's take many reboots and battery pulls to unlock the phone. Other times the touch screen works like it should. Does anyone know what the problem is? I'll upload a video with my wife's phone when she gets home.
Thank you,
Rymn!
Here are four threads that you would have found if you had searched first.
unable to unlock screen "screen totally unresponsive"
Touch Screen Unrsponsive after pocket time
sometimes can't unlock the phone with the slider
Fix for lack of screen response?
When your phone locks up try holding the power button for 15-20 seconds. Many times this will power down the phone and keep you from having to do a battery pull.
For possible answers to your screen problem read the other (many) threads already started about this.

Hello,
I'm new to xda-developers forums. My X10 mini pro is only 2 weeks old but I got this random problem that pops up from time to time. The touchscreen is not working. I can't unlock the phone when I took the phone out of my pocket, I can't enter the unlock pattern. Then it registers a wrong pattern. for example, the pattern to unlock my phone is:
12*
*3*
**4
sometimes it just registers
12*
***
***
or
12*
*3*
***
or nothing at all and it ends up that I'm being asked with the security question. It gets frustrating.
There's also this one time when I have an incoming call and when I took the phone out of my pocket I can't slide the phone to receive the call. I ended up having a missed call (good thing it's not an important call).
Any ideas on this problem guys? Have any of you experienced the same problem before? Are there any good practice/app to improve the x10 mini pro's capacitive touchsreen? The problems occurs usually when the phone is fresh from my pocket or I am out in the bright sunlight if that helps. I really need it to be much more reliable.
P.S.
Can't wait for the 2.1 update... Hopefully it supports 2.2 and other future versions too. I don't know why the music player has no repeat. And the camera haz no zoom. And there's something funny about the dialer but I just can't pinpoint what. (any idea if x10 family can support gingerbread?)
No one bothered replying??
Well, that sux.
Anyways, for an update, I've rooted my phone, overclocked a bit, managed memory,... so far so good. I think having the the phone in your pocket, butt-dialing overloads the touchscreen with a lot of input (even if it's locked, but lighting up) that's why it becomes unresponsive.
-----------------------
Hope devs crack the bootloader soon, the news from SE regarding the update is devastating.
Same problem here. I've had the phone for 48 hours and almost everytime I unlock the phone the touchscreen becomes unresponsive.
Any solution? Should I return it to retailer?
it looks like the CPU/Memory was on power saving (low performance), until you turn it on.
Can you wait before you enter the unlock code a few seconds(5~10 seconds) to know if the problem is solved?

doesn't work, once the screen is lock the only solution is to remove the battery.
Is your phone rooted? Since I rooted my phone, played with setcpu and autokiller, touchscreen performance increased a lot. My guess is that it has something to do with memory management. While android claims that it has hardcore memory management, you still need to kill apps once in a while.
Right now, whenever my touchscreen becomes unresponsive, I press the power button (to turn off the screen, not shut down the phone) and press it again (so the screen will light up). It becomes responsive again. Works everytime without fail. I hope this helps solving your problem.
My brand new unbranded Mozart has terrible lock screen lag issues. Phone was perfect to start with then after the usual updates and 2 days later, is proving very hard to release the lock screen. I need to wait at least 5s until the phone starts responding. I have noticed it does the same when on the phone (i.e when the screen senses proximity and goes blank). anyone no of this phone having wake up problems etc.?
Quick update - if I swipe up the left hand side of the screen the lag seems to vanish! (for that unlock only).
i.e swipe with index finger from the bottom left above the back arrow upwards and the Mozart seems to respond better!
Wierd but true. Just wondered up this works for anyone else experiencing the same problem.
The lock screen hasn't been responsive on mine. Strangely, once passing the lock screen, the screen is responsive, so shouldn't be a hardware problem right ?
Then I installed the new update and I can't get through the lock screen anymore. It responded to some flicks, but never completely unlock. But the rest of the interface (after doing a reset) is responding as good as always.
A test using the camera button, the screen needed two and a half minutes before responding. That's more than twice the time needed to response from a reboot

i having the same problem...
Huhhhh
same TT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsRtofL9DQA << That's mine.
i have a tmo_de mozart, and when i flashed it with an unbranded rom, problems with the screen lag appeared, now i flashed tmo_de back and its as good as its supposed to, after 1 month
Had all kinds of touch screen lag problems with my friends Mozart, but lastnight i flashed the stock ROM again and it seems to have VASTLY improved it!
It was like the above video, but now its a million times better, but still misses the odd first swipe when unlocking.
Hello everyone.
Tried searching the forum response to my questions but not found.
1. I can not transmit anything via bluetooth. It's really just for my handset or having problems?
2. When I got the phone in my pocket, even with the screen locked, sometimes it turns off. Ie If you press the power button continuously, even with the screen locked, it turns off. Is it normal or is my problem with one?
Thanks

Hi!
1. WP7 does not support sending files via bluetooth since its a very cloud based device. Maybe with Mango we will have that option, but its unclear also because of the security issues...
2. I don't know about other WP7 devices, but with HTC 7 Mozart it works like that. But that never happen to me and i use it on my pocket all the time. Maybe those gel soft cases could help?
Hi,
In Mozart even if you are in the screen saver lock screen a constant press of your power button would switch it off.
There is no alternative for this now and the best way is to use a case (So that the power button does not get pressed when in your pocket)
Maybe this would also be take care of in the next updates
Finally someone who has the same problem as I do. If you follow my post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055060 you will see that I have been *****ing about this power-off problem for some time now. People thought I was crazy. The morons who replied to the posts ALL debated weather or not it happens to them or not. WAY besides the point (and question asked). Windmaster, you are not alone - I share your frustration in the phone switching off whilst in your pocket. One day, hopefully, there will be a solution to this.
Hello all.
I recently purchased a used streak in the UK running the 2.2 o2 update and I'm having issues with the screen.
Every time I receive a phonecall and put the phone to my head to talk the screen powers off as a result of the proximity sensor doi. Gonna its thing. After hanging up the screen becomes unresponsive. At first I couldn't even turn the screen back on using the power button. I managed to get around this by installing the nolock application. Now the screen powers on the it 90% of the time but won't respond to touch at all. The only way to make it respond is to power the device off and on again by holding the power button in.
Has anyone else had this issue or know anything about it?
I have read about people not from being able to unlock the screen but no one has the phone call issue. I have tried the screen calibration but that hasn't made any difference. Neither has carrying the phone screen side out in my pocket.
Using the supplied headset enables me to make and receive calls normally but I'd really like to solve it as this isn't always practical.
Help would be much appreciated!
ThankThanks.
Sometimes it takes a few seconds for screen to come on after a phone call but I've never had complete unresponsiveness. My recommendation would be to perform a factory reset and if that doesnt resolve anything try a different rom (stock roms can be flashed without rooting so you can always restore 319 if things dont work and need to return the streak). If things still dont get cleared up I would probably send in the streak for a new one because that's a pretty big issue.
Hi, I got my Elephone p9000 about a month ago and it's been running perfectly fine until the last few days. When I leave the phone locked for a while, and I try to unlock with my fingerprint, it will occasionally refuse to acknowledge i've placed my finger on the scanner, it can take up to 5 or 6 seconds until it unlocks, almost as if theres some kind of lag while the phone is asleep. This extends to locking the phone, if i'm in an app or on my home screen; and press the power button to lock the phone, sometimes it will just turn off the screen, not actually lock the phone, until 5 or 6 seconds later again, when I hear the lock noise and I'm back on the lock screen.
I've not changed anything, this has just started happening in the last week. If anyone has any ideas, i'd be very grateful for any help.
Thanks,
Holt
