we need more info.
What android version are you on?
Have you rooted/unlocked your bootloader?
What ROM are you using?
What kernel are you using?
What other modifications have you done?
What was the last thing you did before this problem occured?
well my bad because of short explaination
i am running android 4.0.4, rooted and unlocked bootloader, with AOSP rom. the last thing i'd remember was flashing the rom. i think maybe because i have dropped my phone on the floor, so the hardware become malfunction. just my assumption.

You dropped the phone, and now its not working....its not too hard to figure out what happened.
The screen is broke and no amount of flashing will bring it back.
Its time to put your hand in your pocket and pay to get it fixed. If you can afford to take it back to the shop then try ebay to get a screen and fit it yourself.
well thats great. thanks for helping me throughout this thing. will try to solve this problem ASAP.

my girlfriends heros touch screen has stoped responding for instance if i press menu i can press scenes but while im in scenes and select a new one i cant press done i have to use the scroll ball... anyone had anything like this??
any help greatly appreciated
thanks
It happened to mine, the only thing you can do is send it back. It sucks but the screen is faulty.
Send her round with it........... I'll see if I can help
Seriously though, buggered screen I'm afraid..
Had the same problem. Sent it in for a repair and got it back in 10 days.
I've got the same problem!!! I used to say that it was the best phone I've ever used but my mind is changed! :S
Same problem here. I can type with the top and middle of the screen, but the bottom is less responsive/sometimes non-responsive, and backspace doesn't work. Dave Hagenaars: Did you have to pay for the repair?
Aslong as it's under warranty HTC will repair it for nothing. It seems it's a fairly common fault. It come's back with a sticker asking you not to leave the phone in your pocket whilst sat down. Bless them.

My touchscreen works fine when holding it upright, but when the phone is laying down it gets really unresponsive. Anyone else having this issue?
Since it works sometimes, I'm guessing it must be software issue...
Hey,
Sometimes my HTC Hero acts weird.
Sense starts to jump between 2 screens (as if I'm constantly giving it input) when I'm doing nothing.
Also sometimes a press anywhere on the screen makes the phone think I'm pressing something at the bottom.
And last but not least, sometimes when I try to type something I lose the function of both the bottom left and right part of the screen, meaning I can't use backspace, the L, P, A and other various keys that reside there.
Does anyone also have these problems?
Is this hardware related or can I hope that this problem is solved with the 2.0/2.1 update?
Mine does the same
It happens to me as well, and i bought it abroad so no repair for me
Also - mine does the CRAZIEST thing - i can move the screen without touching it!! This is crazy - i just hover the finger above it and i can move the desktop left to right ("feature" only available when teh screen starts to jerk around)
I have no idea what to do - it drives me crazy - all my presses are wrong, and some dont work at all!!
I have figured a "way" to make it normal for a while, i just press the end key to close the screen and then turn it on again and it kinda, kinda, works again.
anybody there knows whats is the fault? if its software or hardware?, anyway i sent mine for repair and still waiting.
It's a hardware issue, no doubt. I have experienced all the issues described in the last 3-4 posts. Will have to send it in for repair after christmas - but I'll probably have to get back to the original firmware first.

well i took off the screen protector, and still pretty the same issue. anyway but now atleast it's under repair. so waiting for the phone i hope to get it before xmas.
I have a dead spot around the O and L key when typing messages in the landscape position.
Should I back-up my phone and remove all private data when getting it repaired?
had a sticker - same thing
i removed mine as well - and same thing.
talked to HTC - but they dont have a repair place in Israel - so i will have to send it abroad to the UK maybe for repair.
I still dont understand - if this is a hardware issue - how does it fix it for a short while when i press the "end" key, and re-open the phone.
if the hardware was defective it should always happen and wont be "fixed" for a short while.
Same problem, dont believe it is hardware
Got the same problem when i update to another rom LOX or Hikari.
Wiping and going back to Modaco 3.0 and everything is perfect again. Have the feeling that it has also something to do with the radio images
Maybe also something to do in which order the roms and radio's are updated. Still testing but got the same problem. Reverting back to my modaco 3.0 nandroid and everything works again.
For me this is the stable version where the bottom line works:
Firmware: 1.5
Radio: 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18
Kernel:2.6.27-mck-teknologist-1.9

I have a similiar problem on my Hero. Did you find a solution to it?
What's weird is that it isn't constant. It comes and goes.
But when flashing the cya mod with 2.1 my phone was stuck on the enter sim card code screen.. Could not press OK to continue.
Hi first of all sorry about my English.
Ok my phone has an at&t froyo i just install superuser, slide loading, the weptop hack and the sim unlocked.
I'm using spb 3d launcher and every time i do a restart it seems that the spb it's working on his on, if a let it awake charging some times it's go to some shortcut like if i press it but i didn't (that didn't bother me too much ).
but two days ago one part of the top of the touch screen stop working i can't select the shortcuts on the top of the screen. and yersterday the phone got possessed and start opening thinks randomly. i just uninstall spb and it seems to stop with the gibberish. but today it's the same i can't use phone because i just simple touch the screen and it start again with the gibberish movements.
i'm going to do a restore and i if that fix the gibberish but the part of the screen that doesn't respond is what i worry the most. I'm from Tijuana, Mexico i buy the atrix on craiglist from some guy in san diego, ca. he said that the phone was warranty until feb 2012.
Please help any one
I reset my phone and still the same parts of the screen does not respond and the screen start shaking and doing thing uncontrol.
Please could be sw or is the hardware and i need to change the phone.
Sounds like a hardware problem.
Not sure what the problem could be.....there's a girl I know who's had similar problems, I'll ask her or put you in touch with her. Sounds like yer digitizer?

I am having the same issue, this was on CM7 only flashed yesterday and then I tried to restore my backup rom and this has the same issue??
Hope someone can sort out the problem.
It sounds like a hardware problem in which you should;
A) buy a whole new screen and install it (they will give you the tools to take it apart)
B) Send it back to Motorola if you haven't voided your warranty by unlocking the phone
or
C) this is a long shot as I do think it is hardware related, you should try this fix just to be sure that it is a hardware problem. Mind you this will do nothing more than refresh the .pds file that affects the touchscreen. Touchscreen fix!
definetly sounds like a broken digitizer to me
I have taken my phone in for repair(Not a official MOTO repairer) and I just got a phone call, he believes it is a software issue? I am not convinced, because I have tried 4 different roms? He said he is going to format/wipe phone. I told him I have installed roms to replace software and I thought that this would wipe/replace software problem?
Anyway I guess, I will found out if it sorts out the random screen movement and widget press?

I got the phone back yesterday, all working ok.
I quickly broke it again by trying to install a stock rom and then root it, but it introduced the same random screen/widget issues(I tried wipe/format, but no good?). I then install 2 custom rom, CM7 and Aura and I still had problems, then I install HomeBase and problem has been sorted. Have no idea why it fixed the issue just happy it is fixed. Just to have refrain from installing other roms......for now anyway

I spoke to soon, last night it started the random screen judder and random widget pressing.....
I am not sure what is going on....I've had the phone for about 12 days now(second hand from eBay) and for the first 4-5 days the phone was fine. I then installed CM7 and for about 12-24 hours the phone was ok. Then the random screen/widget issues happened. Did many, many wipe's/formats of various roms and all these issue occurred more or less straight away.
Then I installed HomeBase and for about 6-8 hours, all was ok until lastnight. I guess it is either new motherboard time or new phone time....
Hi All,
I have a Galaxy S2 i9100 - Samsung XWLP7 [ROM] and would like to ask if anybody has the same problems.
Sometimes when I want to unlock my screen it responds to my touch on the screen but when I'm dragging it loses my touch and just picks it up as another touch on the screen.
But at most times when I try to unlock again it responds well, and when it is unlocked, I have no problems with the touchscreen or whatsoever.
Thanx!
I'm getting the same issue with the touch screen as well sometimes no response, been flashing a few roms over the weeks and its still a little glitchy maybe faulty screen will keep trying for a few days and see if i can get it sent back under warranty via stock rom, currently using dexter rom huge improvements throughout the phone great rom still got a touch issue though

I hope it's not a hardware issue! But I'm fairly sure it's not because after unlocking it works fine!
It looks like it's not sensitive enough.
Just watch your fingers when you unlock it, and dont let go to early, try to make it a straight line from begening to end, that should solve your problem, dont forget the most important thing, say thanks
Did you guys try to use any 3rd party locker apps???
Use the code given below to test your screen.....

Hey guys, so I just updated my att galaxy s2 via kies to android ICS however after that I've ran into some problems.
After updating however I encountered a period where the screen went black and the phone kinda just died on me. After restarting I began to encounter some problems. For some reason, whenever the phone goes to sleep and and then wakes up, my screen gets flipped upside down and the screen gets really bright. Despite that, I still have to press the screen like usual. Which means that if the call button is at the top after flipping, I still have to press the bottom of my screen. Also the screen isn't perfectly flipped and there is space above the top bar.
However, the phone does work fine on bootup, and only fails after it sleeps. Also, very recently my phone just went through a screen repair after the screen cracked under the glass, but otherwise that I have no clue what's going on.
Is this just a poor repair and a hardware problem or is their another problem here?
Also I've tried a factory reset and that didn't help.
Thanks for any help you can give.
(Hopefully I got the right board)

There are alot of things that could go wrong when flashing ROMs.
All of the custom ROMs here have built in safeguards which allow users to recover from issues involved with flashing. The same cannot be said about stock builds.
Unfortunately, your options are limited if you're going to stay stock. You can either try a factory reset and re-installing the update via KIES or you can call AT&T. That's pretty much it.
Personally, i'd Mobile Odin a rooted package with CWM and start flashing some of the wonderful work the developers have graciously allowed us to partake.

OP, I agree with the sentiment here, but you can't use mobile odin until your are already rooted. One option you could follow the guide linked in my signature to root the phone and go from there.
My personal suggest is that if you're running stock ROM, updating an official stock ROM and having problem, I call the provider for help.
My download and install went fine but I incounterd some unusual problems afterwards. My phone doesn't always keep a data signal while browsing the internet and a phone reboot makes it return. Setting browsers home to Google instead of default AT&T doesn't stick. I also had few dropped calls and very low signal bars in status bar at my house which gingerbread gave me full ones.

I got a new Elephone S8 about a week ago, and it's having a glitch that's happened 3 different times. The touch screen becomes unresponsive for around 20 minutes, and after restarting it will work again but it always says the battery is at 1% when it had a full charge before the issue happened. Has anybody else encountered this? I'm terrified that one time the touch screen won't come back. It doesn't seem to be a hardware issue, but some type of glitch. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Elephone S8 touch screen stop working
I have the same problem, I even managed to put ERAGON ROM and again the same thing, the screen just stops working, I even think it has no rules when it will work, and when it does not.
Not here. It seems to me that some folks got units with flaky digitisers. If it were just firmware, I suspect everyone would have the issue.
To share experience with the problem, touch screen stops working!
I returned via Flash Tool to 01701018 release official and then> flash root> flash twrp. Then I installed "magisk manager 16" and for now the cellular phone works for 2 days, since it will not have a SIM card while testing the touch screen lock. I will let you know guys... :angel:
That's what I'm planning on doing today: returning my phone to original rom. Has it happened anymore since you downgraded?

If that's the case, I would need to replace the entire screen, correct? A new one is $50, and I only paid $175 for the new phone! I just don't know if that's worth it

In my case, even the SIM card has no connection to the effect of locking the touch screen of a cell phone, it is always the same problem. The screen simply does not work when it does not work. "It seems to me that some people get units with dirty digitizers?" I have no idea...
Hardware defects should be covered under the phone's warranty... And if it's soon enough after purchase, by the shop where you bought the phone.
Best of luck to you!
