[Q] touch screen not working after 1 minute - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I changed the digitizer because it was broken and since then only works during a few second after rebotting the phone, then sometimes it is not recognizing any touch and sometimes just a few.
Any idea about this?
Thanks

well... I found out what was happening...
Voice Alerts app was causing this so I just unistalled it and everything seems to be working fine.

Is my proximity sensor broken?

Ok so I noticed last night when I was on skype that once my call finished I was in a strange menu and that got me thinking about my proximity sensor.
Went into the system menu, tested the proximity sensor and yep, it's ****ed.
When I place my finger over the sensor, it's off, when I remove my finger, it's on.
Anyone have this problem or know a way to fix it without getting a phone replacement??
Ta!
ok so i went to a shop and had a play with a mini. worked as it should. went to an x10 with 2.1 and it has the same problem that i have... wtf?
odd. so i called myself at home and everything was working as it should. even though it didnt work with skype last night and it didnt work when i tried it with a friend at work...
hmmm

Xperia z1 screen problem

Hello, i got my Xperia z1's screen rekt(even the touchscreen), so i ordered a new one on ebay.(received the new touchscreen around 4 days ago) I totally dissassembled the phone, replaced the screen, and assembled it again. Everything works fine, except i get random touches. It totally makes the phone unusable, i cant chat on messenger, because it starts doing total random things, actually i cant do anything because it starts to open random apps, and so on.
So, what do you think, what could be the problem? Im gonna return the screen in the next 4-5 days if i cant find any solution, but if i could fix it somehow, it would not be necessary.
BTW the strange thing is, i tried to check the screen, with the multitouch test, and strangely, it works fine. It doesnt reckognize any random touches in the app, its rather... freezing the program. So i swipe my finger, the program freezes, but when i touch it again, it works again. It did not happen with my previous screen in this program.
Any ideas?
UI: Did some further testing with the touchtest, it makes random things in it too, im starting to be sure about the touchscreen.
I had this issue with my Z1 as well. It's fairly common for this device, unfortunately. If I remember correctly Sony partially remedied it with a software update. Are you on the latest?

Display sometimes add touch (always the same place)

First i noticed that whenever i chat with someone over messenger, it starts calling them randomly while i type.
I thought it's about messenger and i cleared the cache and reinstalled it. Problem is still occurring.
Later, i noticed in one game that screen does that touch again - on the very same spot as in messenger - somewhere in the top right corner (where's the call button in messenger).
I turned off the phone, waited 2-3 minutes and then turned it on. Problem is still occurring.
I started service "thing" (found on the internet what to type in the dial to activate it) and tested the touch screen, everything seems to be okay. So from my experience it seems it's not hardware problem. Do you have any suggestion or experience with this kind of problem? I wish i could fix my phone
And one more thing, it happens only when i'm touching the screen too, it wont do that when i leave it alone and just watch the display.

Dialer problem

Today when I dialed someone, the screen switched off, like when we bring it to our face, cover the sensor, tapping didnt do anything, only pressing power did bring back the screen, after that all was normal, except it wouldnt switch off the screen when the sensor was covered again
Did another call, the same, rebooted the phone but still the same. I use Dialer+, but tested with standard Phone app and the same happened, any suggestions
Yesterday all worked fine, the only apps updated yesterday where: Google, Calendar, MoboPlayer and Shazam

Same happened calling with Whatsapp...
No one
The proximity sensor seems to work fine otherwise
I've had the same issue on seemingly random occasions. Lots of people suggested checking the proximity sensor data using AIDA64 but it all checked out fine.
Only thing that worked for me was to recalibrate the motion sensor under display settings. Hope that works for you!

I had the same issue on Lollipop, I upgraded to marshmallow and it still exists. It happens at random times, sometimes the proximity sensor works fine but sometimes it kind of freezes and the screen remains off even after a phone call, I have to touch it a bit to make it respond.
Any permanent way of fixing this? Any solution would be very helpful.

Mine never had the problem other than that one day before I upgraded to MM, I have the phone since January. Did you try re-calibrating the sensor like Gator said
Same happened with MM, recalibrated the motion sensor under display settings, and it is working again...

Note 2 touchscreen and touch buttons aren't working correctly

Hi!
I recieved my Note 2 today. After unboxing, I turned it on, did the starting settings (google account, wifi, etc). After that the phone went to sleep, and that's where the problems started. From that time the touchscreen and touch buttons didn't work correctly. It's like someone is pressing the buttons continuously and because of that the touchscreen can't work, or at least not in every area of the sreen.
Did a factory reset, didn't work... It's all the same, even during the initial setup.
Videos of the issue:
Forum won't let me post is, but I can send it in a private mail I guess...
Anyone had an issue like this before? Is it a software related bug (there is some beta version miui installed), or is the device defected?
Any help would be appreciated!
Edit:
The phone was turned off for the night. I turned it on this morning and I could open up the lockscreen with swiping up from the touch buttons. After that the phone worked for like 3 minutes, and then stopped working again.
