Hello
Today my atrix screen suddenly started to show bright stripes from top to bottom of the screen in every screen column which is not black.
This problem started after I replaced to an older sim to import some missing contacts , but it happen only after I returned to my regular sim card.
I tried to take off the battery and return, didnt work.
I tried to do a factory reset from the recovery and re-install my rom, didnt work.
I am adding a pic of the screen (its open in the apps screen)
Please let me know if there is any software solution to this or is it a hardware problem that requires replacement/fix
(this is an AT&T atrix with open bootloader and with alien rom installed).
Thanks !
update : now I somtimes dont get any picture on the screen when I turn the screen on
I would guess its a problem in the LCD I just dont understand how can the LCD stop working after only 4 month...
Hello friends.
I just got my Motorolla Atrix 4G and im not abble to unlock it on the unlock screen, the touch just dont works at all there, even the capacitive buttons below not responding. The first day I managed to unlock it somehow after removing the battery, after that the unlock screen was working fine even when I lock the phone so I tough the problem was over and stated to install some basic apps. Like 2 days later the problem was back and now not even removing battery was working, sometimes I get to unlock it but now thats less and less posible. I read that installing an optional unlock screen could do the trick so I installed "Widget Locker" and worked some hours, then the same thing even the Widget Locker unlock screen dosnt respond. Its weird because once I manage to unlock it the touch works perfectly at all so that makes me think its a software/system problem.
Currently I cant unlock it at all, not even removing battery or anything.
The phone its used, I was thinking to bring it to a tech center on here and try root and installing a custom rom?
Thanks in advance for your help guys.
Bump...
Just to add... tried hard reset and didnt worked =/
¿Any sugestion? ¿Should I try an screen change?
Thanks.

Does the problem occur when you move the phone into a vertical position (moving the lock screen)?
Try turning the screen off/on by using the power button (but don't turn the phone off) ... does this help?
When you installed a custom rom did you do a full system wipe? (goto 'mounts/storage' and format pre-install, data, system, osh, cache) before
installing rom.
Hello barry, thanks for the answer.
Yes, the problem occours in both horizontal and vertical positions.
If I press the power button the power off dialog appears on screen and im unable to touch the options, holding the power button dont turn the phone off so im forced to remove the battery to turn it off.
I havent installed a custom rom yet. Thats the next step ill be covering. I toke the phone to a tech center place and asked them to install a custom rom (since I cant persoanlly do the root and flash rom proces) They just told me that it didnt fixed it, but when i turn it on i saw the same Moto Blur interface wich make me think they didnt changed the rom at all...
Sadly when puting a SIM and starting the phone the Motorolla interface screen appeared, but... touch wasnt working there neither wich now starts to make me think it is a hardware problem after all... Im not sure anymore and dont know what to do now
Sorry for the long answer and the bad english.
sounds like your digitizer might need replaced, based off of what I read. just out of curiousity, what android version is it?
Stock Android Gingerbread 2.3 with Moto Blur UI
Digitizer? Not Screen then?
EDIT: Ohh nvm, Digitizer = Touchscreen right?

Yes. Don't confuse the two, the screen has nothing to do with the digitizer, other than one being on top of the other physically.
Hi, recently I started facing touch screen issues.
My touch sensitive buttons aren't responding and sometimes the lower part of the touch screen is unresponsive. That is fixed with a gentle squeeze and a lock and unlock. Sometimes the touch behaves as if I'm using two fingers than one (scaling when trying to fast forward video using one finger )
Sometimes the entire touch screen goes unresponsive which is fixed with a lock and unlock. The scroll becomes dead slow too sometimes. Again the fix is the same.
I'm not sure if this is a firmware issue or hardware issue. The rest of the touch works fine.
I'm using a Gionee P6
I tried to trouble shoot using the secret star codes but unfortunately the menu is in Chinese for this device.
If someone could help before I send it in for repair which will take a long time I'd appreciate it
EDIT : I Was able to use the touch screen testing from the diagnosis hardware menu and there are no dead points. Every part of the touch screen responds. Except when I actually use them in Android

Hello!
Are you on stock ROM?
Rooted?
I had the same $%^@! issue with my screen not turning on. This seems to be an issue with many using this phone.
I have had some degree of success using a free app that would allow the screen to come on via a swipe of the proximity sensor.
Have been on both stock and rooted have also reflashed the rom hard reset etc
I went from Stock 4.4.4 to 4.4.2, and I haven't had the black screen issue for nearly two weeks now.
Hope that helps.
I have samsung galaxy note 3 SM-N900L, i don't know what is the cause of this problem but my samsung note 3 is freezing but only the display but the touch screen is responding. I can touch the screen and it is still responding while the screen or display is frozen. Like for example when the screen freezes while im on camera i can still capture pictures but the screen is frozen, i can use sms app and text while the screen is frozen because i memorized all the keyboard keys. The screen is responding on touch but the screen is frozen. Please help. I try flashing different roms i try also flasing to stock rom but the problem stay the same. Also in recovery mode the screen freezes. The display i frozen but the phone still working. Help please. Help.
