I just got my Dell Streak a week ago, I really like it so far, but I've had a pretty vexing problem come up today.
I had it in Silent mode, and when I woke up the screen and went to "Slide to Unlock", the whole bottom of the screen was unresponsive. I had to let the screen time out and try it again at least three times.
Has anyone else had this problem? I'm running the Stock 2.2 on Rogers, and using ADW Launcher Pro as my launcher. No other major UI Tweaks.
I can confirm that I do experience that problem sometimes. The S2U moves just a little bit, but but I can't slide it all the way over. I'm also using LP+ as my default launcher. I guess it would be a good test to run the Stage UI as a test to see if it's related to LP+ or not.

I had this same problem, but I noticed that it only occurred if I had the screen facing my leg when it was in my pocket.
I think that what is happening is that when it's in your pocket it still detects screen presses by your leg, and then it gets confused, and won't detect any more screen presses for a long time.
To begin with it stopped me from answering calls and was really annoying, but now I just make sure I put it in my pocket with the screen facing out and it works fine.
Yall need to recalibrate ur screen that helped mine never to be unresponsive again! Search for the guide on here cant remember the button combo to get to it i think it was hold camera and power at the same time when turning on but dont hold me to that just search xda its on here
recalibrate the screen, and also its created by the friction/heat from rubbing off your leg (wahay), so either have the screen facing out, or buy a case for it
Since i recalibrated my screen i can have it any way i want in my pocket and it never hangs anymore
Download menu unlock from the market. It will unlock when you hit menu

That's exactly what happened to me all day today! I had it in my jeans pocket with the screen facing my leg! I thought it may have something to do with ADW Launcher, or having it in silent mode all day. I'm recalibrating the screen now!
Mucho Thanks!
I just bought this EVO 3D and sometimes the touch screen becomes unresponsive and I must turn the screen off and back on to get it to work again. After I do that the screen works fine until it happens again at random times. Is anyone else experiencing this? I am on a fresh install using the latest RUU 2.08.651.2, all stock and not rooted. I have no other problems with the touch screen other then having to cycle the screen on and off once in a while. I am hoping this is a stock rom issue and not a hardware problem.
That happen to me but is not the screen is the htc sense...the issue went away with the wtsb rom....

And sometimes can scroll up in the menu, but can't scroll down at all.
Contacted HTC email support, and followed the guide to hard reset the phone, but problem starts happening within 24 hours without any other apps installed.

I had dead pixels had to return Phone now on new hboot good luck
I'm thinking my EVO 3D might have an issue like the EVO 4G. I went ahead and unlocked my phone then flashed CM7 alpha. With CM7 it also stopped responding at random times. I also noticed if I hold the phone with my hand wrapped firmly around it the issue will not happen. Last night I used the phone for over an hour straight without having to cycle the screen on and off. Today it happen 6 out 10 times I used my today at work without holding it firmly.
Or maybe I just have a bad digitizer?
I've had this too after flashing a new rom. I'd have to turn the screen off and back on again to fix. I'm not sure if there is a permanent fix at all. Been trying to find one.
What is driving me crazy is I can't figure out if I should just go ahead a replace the digitizer or is it software/firmware related. It seems to be app specific and its always the same spots on specific apps that don't work. Sometimes the phone will work normally depending on how I hold it. Also games do not seem to be affected and pulling down the status bar usually always causes the screen to not respond to touch. How can the screen recognize my touch in 1 app but not recognize the same spot in another app? If anyone has dealt with this before could you please advise me on what to do, thank you.
I am having the exact same problem and my phone is now getting to the point where it is unusable. I took it in to sprint and said listen this isnt just a software thing my touch screen doesnt work. so i left it there for 3 hours to come back and them say... oh it was a software thing we did a hard reset and its fine. and then an hour later it started happening i dont know what to do sprint wont fix it and i have all the insurance and protection plans. I feel like I was railroaded on this pos phone!

Def. Software related, a ported swype keyboard on miui wouldn't work for me, would show up just couldn't use half the bottons, have you calibrated the touch screen any issues with that?

Nevermind, link is down.
I took it into sprint because of the same problem about a quarter of the bottom screen would not respond I didn't have insurance, I did have to unroot it before I took it in, but they swapped it out with no hassle.
They said I was the 3rd person with the same issue? Could be a HTC problem? But my new EVO 3D is running infected eternity ROM no problem

Yes I also face this type of problem while playing games. Screen become unresponsive while playing but can solve by pressing power button(no need to reboot).Not on 2.3.5 base only on 2.3.6.
I also face this problem, after updating my rom to arctic 2.0 rom, which uses some stuff from 2.3.6.....power does not help, have to hard reboot. any idea why?
I've had this problem happen to me on my Droid RAZR (CDMA Verizon), can't remember if its before or after I was rooted... I just had to hard restart and its only happened once since then.

The power button does not work for me
I had try to press the power button, but then the screen still not responding, so I cannot pass through the lock screen, and have to hard reboot......
I am on stock rom, 2.3.5, the Asian version.
But it seems it does not matter to different region's razr since the cdma one had the same issue

I get this too. I had 3 razrs, first two had dead pixels so I had them replaced, all had this issue. Has not happened in awhile and I can't remember if it was always with a game, but at least one time it was with a game. Anyway, I don't think this has to do with rooting because my first one I never rooted and it did this. Don't remember if power button worked or not, but I had to reboot as well with power and volume down, or up, whatever it is, to get it to respond again.
No problems here.
I have had this happen about 4 or 5 times for me as well - got it day of launch. Mine says it is the XT912 though - is that right?
XT912 is the Verizon specific one, so yes.
Seems to be a fairly common issue. What is the chance that this is a software problem as opposed to a hardware one and so will be fixed with an update?
I had it happen for the first time yesterday after about 5 weeks or so, strange cause I wasn't doing anything. Battery was at about 15% though...
I only encounter this bug when I open Rom Toolbox for the first time and the superuser permissions screen shows up. My screen doesnt respond to touch anymore. I have to use the power button to make it work. Thats it. It happens nowhere else.
I've been using ROM Toolbox since day one, can't say it's the issue.

Happened to me today...any need to panic?? On official Stock ROM 2.3.5...
Also, is this a hardware issue or software??
My problem is bit different, on a 4 month old unrooted razr.
Touch screen will start to fail recognizing my sywpe typing and start jumping all over the place, or it will end the word while I'm still sywping the word...
Sometimes it types in different letters (1/2 keyboard away) when I'm not sywping to avoid this BS when it happens.
Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this result whenever I want to, I'm currently trying to reproduce the situation.
I believe this happens more often when my battery is low... or when I have been using it for an extensive time.
I go to draw program to test if it is the hardware problem and it is jumpy too, but not by much.
The problem does get better with reboot, but not 100% of the time, so I can't conclude it is SW problem
I also have issues with this. I think the problem is software side. It seems to be poorly responsive often after I unlock my phone and try to swipe screens.
Also while typing quickly with two hands it often does not input all the letters I type, although it flashes the keys and acknowledges that I touched them (this one might be a keyboard issues, not sure yet)
And ya, on an all black screen, I'm noticing some dead pixels- a lot of rectangular patches of dead pixels. I don't really notice it anytime else except when it's all black.
Been making me double think my choice, but I will wait for ICS update and possibly bootloader bypass. But.. I might be getting another phone shortly just because of the size (bezel mostly), these touch screen issues, and the performance isn't exactly where I anticipated it to be.
Razr XT910 touchscreen randomly jumping or not responding
I'm having all the problems mentioned earlier:
- touchscreen stops working randomly
- touch "jumps", like someone is touching it in random places
- some letters on the keybord stop working randomly
- phone gets quite hot at the top
My XT910 is not altered in any way, stock android 2.3.5, as updated as possible.
This happened when it was up-to-date and the very clean one.
This happens really irregularily. At first it happened when I played multitouch games - at some point the touchscreen just stopped responding and could only go back or lock the screen (but not unlock it, obviously).
Twice it happened when I was just going through messages or contacts.
I sent it to Motorola to fix it - they just reset it, benchmarked it for 45seconds and sent it back.
The very evening I got it back I tried to "heat" it myself - I installed a lot of apps, played a lot multitouch games on 3d graphic and voila! - it started freaking out like never before (vidoe in zip file attached).
My last idea is that it happens because of a low quality generic anti-scratch foil on the screen. So I threw it away and tried to "heat" the phone again - nothing.
I used a different foil - anti-reflecting + benchmarking apps - nothing.
If it happens again I'll send it with this video + the one I'll make then.
Hope it gets Motorola specialists off their ass and back to work .
Hey there, my maxx has this weird issue with it's screen too.
Take for example, a game with on screen controller like reckless racing. If i push the screen too long, it won't recognize my press anymore in the pressed area. I tried to go back home, thinking this is the game issue, but it's not, the home launcher button that coincidentally in the same location with game control button is unclickable. i tried with phone tester app and it show the same symptom, the pressed area indicator will disappear within 1-2 minutes.
The only solution is to turn off display and turn it on again. Should i bring it to service center?

Hello, I've recently having this exact same problems with my Motorola Droid Razr Maxx.
The screen sometimes doesn't respond as it should:
-Random touches.
-Not detecting swipes.
-Not detecting anything at all after long press.
-Detecting the touch location wrongly...
When this happens, sometimes a reboot fixes everything. Others, I just have to stop using the phone, and come back later.
Has anyone managed to find a possible cause and/or solution to this problem?
I've tried diferent roms, full reset, rsd flashes... But still the same problem
Hello
I'm wondering just how durable an E3D is, namely the touch sensors inside it.
Recently I dropped the phone twice on a hard surface, and started noticing strange behaviours, firstly with the touch functions and secondly with the phone always freezing up.
Not always, but sometimes when typeing, it's just a mess, the capitalizer writes a letter, multi letter feature is inaccessible, basically none of the characters work like they were ment to. The only solution thus far is to lock and unlock the phone, which fixes the keyboard and the touch functionality.
Sometimes I can't unlock the phone because the ring moves 3 times shorter of a distance, opposed to when its working properly, and if so you can forget about dragging icons into the circle to answer a call, it just won't go in all the way.
Oh and the freezes, completely, none of the touch sensitive buttons or the screen responds, sometimes the screen is the only responsive part while the buttons are completely dead, a lock/unlock is needed to fix it short term, also the buttons led go out, becoming none responsive, sometimes the led is off, yet I still get a vibrational feedback (Have it enabled) So all these irregularities are new, it never happened before dropping the phone! The only touch sensitive related issue I had before, from time to time, was the unlock pattern gesture not tracing, instead of sticking to the first circle I begin at, it moves to the next I drag my finger over. (also fixable by relock/unlocking)
During this post the keyboard wasn't acting up thankfully, but its getting more and more irritating to lock and unlock the phone while typing a message to someone.
First I was suspecting a virus, or low memory causing this behaviour, but after thoroughly cleaning the phone and acquiring more memory (by closing apps) I was still having the problem.
Any idea how sensitive the components are if subject to repeated shock from a distance of 1.5m or 5ft?
What are my options here if the irregularities persist?

Don't know how durable it is...but I too face the unlock pattern issue sometimes, IMO it is a software issue .. Also if you take too much time to draw the pattern the screen goes off (even if you keep your fingers touched)......

DON'T use task killers or force close apps, that only makes things worse, and is probably what is causing your problem.

Here's an update on this issue...
I've noticed that the upper left corner is the cause. How?
Well, in landscape mode on my homescreen, trying to pull the notification bar down (then from, the bottom left since were in landscape) will instead (without any animation) try to go to full homescreen view where I see all my 7 homescreen, but it does it in a zoom like feature, where the more I pull it to the side the more it will zoom in until final animation frame is reached LMAO.. I'm actually crying...
The sensor might be off, in that corner of the screen as dropped phone tend to land/hit the corners first...
I should ask an xda dev. to cook me up a "sensor status check" app to check if any of them are functioning incorrectly..
I don't know what more then that I could do?!..

Hey guys, thought I drop my final verdict on this issue.
As you all (who read this thread) knows, I was having an irritating problem with my E3D, namely the touch functionality of the screen was messed up, but only in a certain area, where I thought the sensors got discalibrated from the drops the Phone went through on hard surfaces.. I have used an app called "Check My Android" and the feature "MultiTouch" to identify the spot on the screen, where if I touched, a daemon took over my phone and started all kinds of wired behaviour such as item triggers on the other side of the screen and freezing, even slow mo zooming of the homescreen, one touch passive zooming of webpages and so forth..
Now with that app, I was certain that everything with it is not in order, but I didn't have the slightest clue on what to do about it. I ran across a comment about the built in utility diagnostics tool code for the Phone while browsing on U2B (YouTube), so by typing "*#*#3424#*#*" (which starts as you enter the lasts star) will basically allow you to test every aspect of functionality of your phone, where i also went for the screen draw test, and found myself strengthening what I already thought was the problem "an area on the screen messing everything else up" as I pressed within this area I found a straight line jump, from the "dead zone" to the bottom middle of the screen, as I was drawing circles, it drew a straight line there as i went over it with my finger every time. Than browsing on after that code's discovery, for "EVO 3D touchscreen problems" I ended up on a video offering similar problems..
Now the breakthrough or rather yet the solution came from that videos second and only comments, saying how "Disabling the ScreenLock of the Phone would fix that problem" and so it did!!! I'm not having any disturbance while typing, flipping pages touching that area or anything out of the ordinary, otherwise the Phone was almost unusable. It let's me to believe its a software miscoading flaw, but it wasn't always like that even though I used the screenlock since day one, so I'm not entirely sure what's up? other than its fixed...
I hope this fix can relieve others just as it did me
And the diagnostics code is also useful.. should be stickyd :]

Try calibrating your screen via display settings if you haven't already. Also are you having just touch screen issues or are reboots part of the issue as well ??

It's screen issues only, no reboot problems yet..
I have calibrated the G-Sensor several times...
In another post someone replied, that its a grounding issue, and trying that once it did give a result, but then again, I'm not having that, unusable level of the issue I was having, after a hard reset.. so I'm not really sure weather this is a grounding problem, an app caused problem, all I know is that I still get an extra touch input on the screen, when I approach the upper left corner.. with every multi touch app I test..
Have you tried that app called touch screen booster ??? If not give it a shot. Set the multi touch point settings to two. Then apply then start the service and select run at boot. Then reboot and see if it helps any. Also a way of trouble shooting to find out if it is a rogue app is to Uninstall all of your apps. Then see if you still have the issue.

No i have not rooted, i was waiting for the official ICS before i root.
So I'm on the Stock... everything lol
This is my second 3D. The first one stopped responding to touches. Sprint replaced it for $30 even though I bought it from wirefly.
In my own experience, I had the exact same symptoms. Only difference is I didn't even drop my phone. After a few months of owning the phone it started to show the aforementioned symptoms occasionally. Eventually, it just got worse. After a lot of forum searching, google searching, etc, it turned out to be the digitizer that was faulty. I had tried everything from flashing different ROMs, Kernels etc before I was finally able to narrow it down to a hardware issue. The digitizer seems to be an issue for a lot of 3VOs from what I understand.
Luckily I had a friend who replaced the entire front housing of my phone so I wouldn't have to exchange it since I was unlocked on HBOOT 1.40. At the time I was afraid that, had I gotten it replaced, I'd have to deal with Hboot 1.50 and HTC's half ass unlock method. Either way, after that it was like a brand new phone but better cuz I didn't have to redownload apps, etc since the motherboard and software weren't touched at all.
Hope it all works out for ya... G'luck, brothah!

Shame I hadn't seen this thread sooner, I could have saved you a lot of time. I am on my 3rd 3d. Basically any fall which lands on the touchscreen will cause this problem.
What makes it worse, I was rooted with my last phone, and when it happened, I had to unroot before I could take it in for repairs. The touchscreen was so badly damaged with this problem, I could hardly do anything.
TL;DR get a case that will cover the screen and protect it from flat on touchscreen falls.
So I've into this issue lately where at the end of a call the touchscreen will become unresponsive. I basically have to wait for the other person to hang up and then the call to disconnect. Is there a way to force the phone to hang up without the touchscreen working? Or is there a reason why this is happening?
I've been experiencing the same thing. I switched from SOS to CM9 and that did the trick. I am just assuming that it was the launcher but not sure. What is your setup?

Finally!
I've been asking this same question over and over and no one seems to have the answer, it happens with a lot of GB phones. I'm running a ice cream rom and its still doing it, maybe when the screen starts going nuts bcz of facial moisture, who the f knows. But I hate it. Usually when people nowaways always want me to hang up 1st. Weird but true.
Mine's done this for awhile. Sometimes it happens in the middle of texting... But it has never happened while tapping away on FPSE or other video game emulators... Very odd.
I don't have this problem with my evo. However in my gs2 it was due to a proximity sensor. It just had some stuff over the sensor. After It was cleaned it worked as normal

Dont have anything special going on, on the phone, not using a custom rom or anything. I am using a Zagg screen protector but this issue is recent as of a few months ago and pretty sporadic.
This happens to me sometimes or also when texting th message thread scrolls to the top?? All I do is lock the screen then unlock and it works fine

Are you using any lockscreen app's?

It's from the skin moisture that's left on the screen after you have finished speaking(especially if you speak for a long time).This issue also appears when it's raining on your phone(not heavy rain,just some drops will make it go crazy).I have tested it and after I have cleaned it with my shirts everything was normal.
This is the reason why it doesn't happen while playing/browsing or other stuff(cuz the screen is not wet).
This is the reason why I usually try to keep the phone a little far from the ear.Especially in hotter seasons.
I've had this issue on my 3D as well, I have a feeling it has something to do with the proximity sensor, but I don't feel like opening the phone up now.
then use bluetooth and you won't have this issue.
