left part of touch screen unresponsive (4mm) - Motorola Droid RAZR

Im kinda new here but i have an issue with my motorola xt910. the left part of the touch screen is unresponsive. so everytime theres a game or a video player with small icons in portrait mode its impossible for me to hit the bottons. the unresponsive arear is like 3-4 mm. I know its hard to understand. Even the keyboard... if i want to type in portrait mode i have to make sure to type on the right side because on the left side (in portrait mode) i have to make sure to hit the space bar right in the middle which is a pain in the...
if anyone have a solution for me it would be appreciated
im ok with unmouting the phone ive already unmounted plenty of them
maybe theres dust on the left side of the digitizer idk im waiting for anyone who has encountered this kinda of issue or have an idea before unmounting it
thx in advance

this is not a software issue...
your digitizer is broken, and only way to fix this is to repace this part

thank you for the reply
i dont think its broken since the rest of the screen works perfectly. someone told me that there may be dust on that part of the screen. i know its not software related. i just want to make sure that dust can in fact cause a similar problem so i posted hoping someone had this problem before.

nothing?

did u try recallabrting it

there s no calibration

Digitizer is broken. Rly that happend when is broken, send it back.

anyways thx for your reply

is my Digitizer broken? :(

Hey guys!
something happaned to me 2 days ago.
everything worked great, and suddenly the HD screen wont work properly.
the left side of the screen sometimes reacts defferent when i press the left side screen.
for example - i press the Start on the left, and it reacts on the right!, if i press the right side it works good!
ive done few HR with changing the ROM few times too, the problem is still there...
when i do screen align - the buttons are getting pressed ok, when i start to use the phone its getting crazy, i have to press the left side at the end of the screen so it can react on the middle...
im getting crazy cuz everything worked great 2 days ago...
the picture on the screen is perfect - no defects except the touch.
also when i press the left side of the screen' lets say on the TF3D Tabs and living the Stylus on one Tab, its shaking a bit like im playing with it...
all the 4 HARD BUTTONS at the buttom doesnt work properly either...
thank you all...
BTW something happaned to alot of people? i can see alot of messages about those things..
* also one more thing..
im using my phone as a Modem for 4 months already, can it be one of the resons to make the Digitizer go crazy? the heat? cuz its get hot as modem...
Hey.
thanks for the answer.
but my qustion is if it really is my Digitizer...?
yes i got the same problem, send it to my reseller and got it repaired.
In a few hours i go to the poststation and get my HD back
greetz
yeah my seller lives at the other side of the country lol...
thanks guys for the help.
=]
OK
something doesnt make any sense!
ive done another HR- another ALIGN SCREEN' and suddnley the screen works perfect! no stuttering, no jumping from one tub to another!
how can that be???
ive pressed the screen hard enough to see if the problem comes back! and it didnt...
how can that make any sense?
Damaged Digitizer will do that?
Hey!
thanks for the answer, but i live far away...in Israel \=
the main problem i have on the screen, is the OILY LIQUID under the screen! that what causes the problems, now my HD wont work at all, or maybe sometimes when it wants to...
now i have to send it for repair...and hope it will be ok
I'm out of luck,
One year ago, in the beginning of August, I had the Digitizer problem...
After a year passed, I begun to noticed again a small oil liquid on the LCD!!!
I still don't notice any problem with the touch, but it's a matter of time...
I can't believe it!!! 99% for sure that I have to send my phone to repair again and almost exactly one year after the same problem!!!

help with screen

hey guys just a quick problem.
I have installed the miui rom like 2 weeks ago but in the last few days the screens been playing up as now i can't press the e,s,z and voice input, its like their is a voide that i can't touch or do anything with. I have not dropped the phone or anything like that. Could the screen be playing up, or could it be the miui rom? and if it is how do i fix it?
I think you should try your screen with a multitouch test app
multi-touch
ok i did a multi touch test which kinda helped i guess... I have found out their is like a 0.5cm void on the screen which i cant press? any help...
try watching one of the replace digitizer atrix videos on you tube and determine if your confident enough to try it, but basically your digitizer stopped working, it happened to me 3 times over one year, ATT warranty replaced the phone but it was still pretty annoying.
reply
Is it truly the digitizer, it has no cracks or scratches, as ive had a screen protector on the screen since i have got it :-D, I dont really wanna replace something that isn't necessary. And by the videos it looks a bit beyond me (even though i do electronics in school), but even so i dont really mind the empty void in the screen, the only annoying thing is that the i can't press e,s,w in the keyboard and i use at lest one for my google account password
aroma Breaks Digitizer?
Hmmmm ESZ Those are the exact same keys that are messed up on mine.. MIUI you say eh.. let me guess, that one with the aroma installer? BAM..

Right side of screen unresponsive to touch

I noticed today when i woke up i cannot press the right side of the screen and get any kind of response. It is only about a thumbs with of the right edge but this prevents me from being able to hit send on text messages on the default messaging app and also on go sms as the send buttons are in the same general location. Is my phone just FUBAR or is there some way i can resolve the issue. Have tried power cycling and thats about it. I guess i need to know if this is a software issue or a hardware issue and if there is any way to find out and fix the problem.
I've been having the same issue actually. In the bottom right corner, anyway.
Like when I go to attach a picture to a text message, I have to hit the text box first so the paperclip button is out of the corner. I've also had some trouble unlocking with the camera or touching it from the Navbar, where it's positioned in the bottom right corner. :/

I have similar issues with that when my phone is plugged in. And my acreen often locks up kinda with the last image on the screen being the only thing you see until you reset.

I don't think I've had an image stuck to my screen yet. I have this problem even if it isn't plugged in, which is really strange. Not sure why it's so unresponsive, takes several tries to unlock/select.
And kudos for being in Portland too! :good:
Have either of you found a consistent way around the problem or a way to resolve it? Also are you running the phone in the base state that you bought it in or is it rooted / unlocked?
I just tested my phone, by opening the browser to google.com (mostly white background), all around the edge of the screen. And I can see feedback animations for all my touches around the edge of the screen. So I don't think there is any problem with the touch digitizer, at least on my phone. Phone is still stock, rooted and TWRP.
I have touch animation when I touch the bottom right corner on the lockscreen, but it doesn't always drag/ripple out. Sometimes it acts like I've pulled my finger off so I have to do it again.
Rooted, unlocked, stock.
After touch responsiveness got increasingly worse i contacted AT&T and they are sending me a free replacement since these issues seem to be covered under the one year warranty. Just throwing that out there in case anyone else gets as frustrated with the problem as I have and cant find a permanent fix.
I can confirm that I am having very similar problems... it is getting worse.
I am stock rooted and unlocked.
It is getting harder and harder to press things, fling actions (like scrolling through a list) hardly move a thing.
I just installed a multitouch visualizer and whenever I have 2 fingers on the screen and then go to cross them (start with fingers in opposite corners, move one up and the other down until they pass each other in the middle) it actually loses both fingers and then sometimes only one pops up again on the screen.
Can anybody try an app like this Play Store Link.
I've had similar results with 2 other multitouch testers.
Is it my phone, or everybody's?
----EDIT-----
Figured I would install the Base ROM (7.0>7.3) because either it was a software issue and maybe the ROM would fix it, of it was a hardware issue (I really didn't think it should be acting like that) and I would try to get it replaced.
The Base ROM fixed my issue (for now, fingers crossed).
Now using a multitouch visualizer, the contact points are always seen, even when the fingers cross.
Don't know what caused it, but it was software (at least for me).
----EDIT----
Just plugged in the charger again... now the touchscreen is acting strange again... this phone does strange things when plugged in...

[Q] My HTC One's touch is acting weird...

So, this thing drives me crazy...I've tried everything I knew and still nothing solved this problem.
I'm using HTC One. About 10 days ago weird things with touch started to happen. It seems that touch is partly unavailable/unresponsible on touch in one or two small areas. It seems to me like theres an empty place on my touch. Visualy is everything fine. Screen is crystal clear and has no damages or scratches. But I can't slide icons without troubles. Somwhere on 1/4 of screen, touch brakes briefly and I need another try to slide the icon. The same thing happens with status bar on the top of screen - I can slide it until that 1/4 part and it stops there and goes back. If I slide it quick with short move, it works fine, just slide alone over problematic area.
Also, few times I had that problem where screen works things on itself will. Makes pictures, or adds filters on Instagram, or, I don't know, just jumps around for few secons. Then, I lock the screen, then unlock it and usually that calm down the screen.
Also weird thing is that, when I want to send message, I can't reach "send" button in first try. I have to drop down writing sheet, than to touch the letters to put it in writing mode again, and then I can click the "send" button. On the same place where it was previously!
At first, I thought that plastic case or PVC protection is the problem, so I took off the protector from the screen. That solved problem for a bit. Then, I put back screen guard, and problem came back. After I totally rejected screen guard, problem is still here. I've tried to reset phone on factory, but that wasn't helpfull...
I forgot to state that I'm using Android 4.2.2 and this started to happen after that version update. I had no problem before.
So, now I'm here, as I don't know what else to do before I take this beauty to service. I just hope that this happens because of software bugs :crying:
Is there anyone who could help me? Have similar problem or know how to fix this?
In the meantime, I'll just hope that 4.3 will fix it themself... :fingers-crossed:

Moto e dead spots on touch screen

Hey guys, a friend of mine give me his moto e cause he had soft bricked it. Reading through the forum I could reinstall the firmware (4.4.4 latam) and now it's working fine, but there are 5 spot in a vertical line that doesn't register my touches, these spots are aligned in the middle of the screen, one is at the y position of the keyboard, and the others are separated 1cm each other (1 is under the y and the other 3 are above). Could this be a software related problem or I just have to replace the touchscreen? (I've tried factory reset two times but I've not reflashed the firm again) thanks in advance and sorry about my English.
First take a try with Screen tester app die playstore, and change rom once, if didn't helped, you can replace screen assembly at low cost on local markets.
Well, i've reflashed the stock 4.4.4 firmware and it's still the same, i guess i'll have to replace the touchscreen. I dont know how the touchscreen works in this phone but it's a little strange that certain isolated areas in the middle of the screen doesnt work..

I had the exact same problem. I had 4 such huge spots on the left side of the screen where touch didn't work. ROM reflashes don't help. Yeah it's really strange. First I thought it might be cuz of water spilled over the screen but later on found out that the display assembly is completely sealed and water can't get in. Yeah it's really strange how display suddenly stopped working that way..even touches of local phones don't get magically spoiled like this, dunno what's up with moto. I got it replaced from local market for 1300. I would say the quality of the display, touch, brightness, contrast, everything is same as that of the original display. The only thing I suspect is that the glass is not gorilla I guess.
