Hello guys, it seems I am having issues with the multi touch function of the screen, when I play games and use the joystick it works fine until I press another button.Then it reverses back to the neutral position....
So basically.. it doesn't accept to inputs at the same time.
The same thing happens while texting, If I hold down the CAPS button while typing it will not capitalize what I type(as it should), I have to hit the caps after every letter.
This happens with both energy and xborders roms, and their respective kernels, when I reflash the kernel, it seems to fix the problem temporarily but then it breaks again...
I am at a loss??? what do u guys think?

Fixed it... apparently Go Launcher breaks my multi touch screen feature... wierd.. after all this troubleshooting all I had to do was unistall that
siigh..
maybe this will help someone else
Actually Go Locker or any lockscreen replacement causes problems with multi-touch feedback . Did you have that installed ?

yea thats what I meant to say... Go locker was causing the problem... I switched to magic locker and it seemed ok for a while but then it started doing the same thing...
I wish there was a way to replace the sense ring without multi touch issues
Hell yea . I downloaded like 40 go locker themes . Come to find out all my games were broken . It took me soo long to figure out the problem . Oh well . Still waiting on ICS.

I can confirm this issue too.
I had widgetlocker installed forever. I had thought the phone was just a bit unresponsive until I loaded up zenonia 4 and the controls didn't work at all.
I found this thread and uninstalled widgetlocker. This fixed the issue right up. Still a bummer though.

Have you tried downloading any other keyboards if you are using default keyboard? May I suggest using Better Keyboard which is very customizable and from my experience, all keyboards sorta lag on the x10 =_= .

I have tried better keyboard i didnt like it at all. But also a different problem is i have app that should have like a push notification but nothing happens..
1. Xfinity App for my email i have it set to refresh every hour but i have to do it manualy.
anyone know why?
I've noticed that recently my keyboard would be having problems typing the "a and w" and if it does work it will type crazy... Than I noticed that its not just that but that whole left side don't respond when pressed. Sanything would help I'm just hoping its not the softesare where I have to replace it again for this issue now.

Are you running stock rom? Are you using the default keyboard?

You could try downloading another keyboard from the market and see if those work
Well i am rooted but on 3.0... And its not just the keyboard but aslso on the home screens nothing on the left will work unless pressed wired or really hard. I've tried salso calibration and I know its not the ROM cuz its been doing this even before flashing.

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.
My Thunderbolt is rooted, and I have tried several different ROMs (some AOSP even) and different kernels, and still I get this strange problem... I use WidgetLocker and fairly often when I go to unlock my phone, the touch screen doesn't work. I have to turn the screen on and off several times and sometimes that works, but it may take up to several minutes for it to finally register my touch. I even sometimes have to pull the battery because after ten minutes, nothing is responding. At first, I thought it the ROM/kernel - I used BAMF in the beginning and that is when I noticed it. Then I switched to ShiftSense, and I barely noticed the touch screen ever failing on me, but the lack of GPS locking and accuracy made me switch to NonSense, which I enjoy but again the touch screen not working at the WidgetLocker lock screen comes up again. My other theory was maybe the HTC Ring Lock Screen gets in the way, so I downloaded NoLock and disabled it, but that didn't work. Then I tried use the WL HomeHelper, but that didn't work... I tried different settings, but no avail. I really enjoy WidgetLocker and I want to try to keep it, but I am not sure what other things I should try to fix this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!
widget locker did that to me several times so I gave up on it. Its definitely a problem with widget locker and not your phone or ROM. It freezes. I even set it to unlock with long press of back button and that would freeze as well.
my phone does the same thing, i think its a problem with our phone and gingerbread. it happens less with froyo. I believe its a radio issue.

I have used widget locker on over 10 different android devices I've own. I've never had a freeze issue with it. Reason I've had freeze issue starting with low RAM device. Then voltage to low or cpu frequency to low.
Is there a good alternative with Widget Locker? I just love the use of my own custom slider/widgets/custom background... Does any other app do that? I sort of want to try another app and test to see if it is in fact my phone/RAM/ROM/whatever or Widget Locker.

take off or freeze widget locker for a few days and see how your phone does. If it doesn't freeze, then you know its the app.
As for the guy that has used widget locker on 10 devices without problems, I call BS, I tried it on stock, and several customs and always had problems.
I sort of like the features of WidgetLocker than my default lock screen doesn't have and the look of it, so if I turn it off, I sort of want to try to find a replacement app in the meantime.
I just wanted to chime in and say I have this issue with my Thunderbolt and Widgetlocker as well. I've found that it usually freezes if I let my screen turn off by timing out. I'll turn it back on and the screen doesn't respond at all. I've found that if I let my screen timeout again while on the Widgetlocker screen, my touch screen will be responsive the next time I turn it on again.

Same problem here, I stopped using widget locker and just use the sense 3 lockscreen now.
I just wanted to put in my two cents - I was have the same problems with WidgetLocker on BAMF Forever (1.0.7 & 1.0.9). I found another thread on here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151269) that someone with a BAMF Sense 3 ROM and a custom kernel was having the same issue. Someone else suggested upping the voltage on the kernel to 368 or changing the kernel. It didn't work for him, but it did for me. I'm not using a custom kernel, but there is an option to change that in BAMF Settings. I've been running it at 368 for several days now and I only had one lockup (but that was shortly after bootup and the phone was probably busy doing other things in the background). HTH
Bear with me here, this issue is kind of hard to describe. When I am playing a game that requires touch inputs from both hands, I often get bugs. It's most obvious in games that have controller-style overlays. As is normal, I am using my left thumb to tell a character to move right or left, and then I press the button on the right to jump. However, when I release my jump, I stop running. The screen no longer recognizes that my left thumb has been pressed down the whole time and should still be moving in the direction I am pressing. This happens in Bean's Quest, Chono'n'Cash, Delver, Gunman Clive, and any other game of this nature I have tried on my device.
I played some of these games just fine on my old Evo. Is anyone experiencing this issue? I experienced it on stock as well as several custom roms I have tried.
Turn off "Htc gestures" you'll find it in settings, display & gestures!
When the display senses three finger inputs it renders it touch inputs useless...run a multi-touch test app and you'll see.

Doesn't seem to have fixed my issue, I am still having problems with some two finger games. I will be using two fingers just fine, when I remove one finger from the display the first finger is no longer recognized even though it is still touching. I have to remove the first finger and press it again every time.
Do U have any type of lock screen installed. If so uninstall. Use only stock.

Appears that widgetlocker is the culprit! Is this issue documented or known, exactly? What causes it? Thanks so much for the help. I will surely miss widgetlocker.

Moving to Q&A
I encountered this recently
It seemed to get "stuck" after using multi touch gestures in-game. Tapping the game with two fingers often "unstuck" it, but overall it was extremely frustrating.
This was on an APK not designed for the phone, though
Sorry to bring back up an old thread (is 6 days even considered old?) anyway you HAVE to disable the HTC 3 touch setting gesture because it will ignore anything more than 2 (3 will only register if you swipe up or down, but sense itself registers it, nothing else).
Just made the video below as proof (forgive my foreign accent xD):
Our screen supports (at least) 10 different points (was going to try 11 but I could not get my nose on the screen with my fingers and my girlfriend is asleep).
EDIT: Two things, one: I had widgetlocker installed while I did the above video, it caused no problems. Two: the maximum number of inputs our phones can handle is 10, incase anyone was curious.
EDIT 2: While I don't have the issue with widgetlocker it seems that it is a known problem, but you don't have to disable the lock screen altogether. Go into widgetlocker settings> advanced> retain system key guard. Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652038

Did you try my edit 2? The Retain System keyguard? I can assure you that I have Widgetlocker installed and I have the 10 inputs (that video was recorded with widgetlocker running).
[SOLVED!] - HTC Evo 4G LTE touch screen trouble - WidgetLocker is the problem
Retaining system keyguard in WidgetLocker worked for me! Thank you for this Racer for All. (Actually I found your YouTube video, and a link to this thread)
I was wondering why all the games I played all of a sudden stopped functioning properly (in terms of touch controls... Example: MineCraft PE, moving forward and trying to look left or right - suddenly character would stop moving.)
Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I want people to know if they have WidgetLocker (and don't want to uninstall it) just go to Settings - Advanced - Retain system keyguard - zmag
