Do any of the buttons work on the bottom. If not, take it back to where you bought it and get a new one.

Touch issues were from flashing unmodified nexus kernels but as far as I know, none of them involved the screen not functioning.. I'd try to get a replacement it sounds like faulty hardware to me

Hello, people of xda-dev.
I just recently encountered a frustrating problem. One third of my touch screen is unresponsive. It just randomly happened over night.
I unlocked it and rooted it a little while ago (for the android battery app and such).
I tried the second method on this thread with no success : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131649
I also tried restoring to factory state a couple of times and erased the cache.
I am running Android version 2.2.2
If you need more information, ask away!
Thank you.
If you search there is lots of threads about this issue. Only way replace digitizer
Its a common Atrix problem
I had this problem for about 6months now

So it wouldn't be something like, I don't know, a partition messing up or something? (since I unlocked it)
Thank you for your reply.

nope sorry m8
Aww.. well thanks!
So I need to buy a new digitizer and replace it?
Does it mean the new one will probably fail after a couple of months too?
Wow.. I removed the battery (again) and opened it again.
Same vertical dead line, but this time it's about half smaller, and a little shifted to the right :l (I'm testing it with Touch Test)
Do you really think it's hardware related?
If you still have warranty coverage, flash sbf to unlocked stock. Send it in. They will send you a brand new phone.
At least that is my experience with two separate atrix units.

I know its that area that needs looking at. I had the issue. Used some tape near top of phone battery area. And everything worked again. Did a couple of battery pulls due to deving and now its lost again. Now it wont work again

Ok guys i have another question for the experts. Im dealing with this GS i717, the phone was rooted at some point since i found a touch recovery in it when i got it in my hands. Problem or issue is that i got it back to stock ATT and now touch screen is not working at all. Funny thing is that i noticed it wasnt working with the touch recovery but since that recovery looked so weird i thougth it was a matter of incompatibility since ive seen that before with touch recoveries. Anyway, the LCD doesnt look bad at all. In fact theres not even a minor scratch on the phone and or lcd(digitizer). But strange enough the digitizer responds perfectly to the pen. Im asking for help cus this does not look like a hardware issue. Seems to be a matter of configuration or something like that. Any advice??
Which recovery was on there? You may want to download a new ROM and see if you can flash that. And see what happens. Just a thought.
I would try pushing a ICS stock ROM via ODIN to try first.. if that failed, I'd try reverting to gingerbread then updating via kies personally. I'm no expert I promise but that just seems like the only logic I'd try.

to start i was running padawan flawlessly for almost 2 days when my touch screen failed on a reboot. the only thing that worked was the pen, it led me to this topic. i tried the firmware update, didn't work. spent a few hours looking for a better answer but when i didn't i decided to try again. after updating all 4 of the options the pen stopped working as well. i then installed the original 4.1.2 using Kies hoping to roll back the firmware/drivers or whatever stopped working. this didn't work either now I'm staring at that ridiculous AT&T Ready2Go screen and can not make anything happen with my phone. all 4 of my capacitive buttons register and get me the tactile feedback but do nothing else. i know i'm not that experienced, but this seems to be a software issue somewhere. before i trash the phone or have to pay for a replacement note is there anything else i can try?
If your not under warranty try taking it apart. Maybe you'll find something disconnected. You have nothing to lose.
If you do decide to take it apart, I found this link to be very helpful. (Warning! Autoplay)

This is a good suggestion because the screen is several layers (glass, digitizer, lcd, capacitive touch, and pen) with connectors for each one, and each layer is independent of the others. A good knocking could loosen a connector.
If that doesn't cure it, a new screen assembly is $160. I just bought one for my N7000 note.
well i've tried everything i could think of and everything i could find on this site. after opening my phone to make sure all connectors were in their proper place i flashed the original stock 2.3.6 OS, no working touch screen. upgraded back to padawan, still no working screen. has anybody ever heard of a way to flash the touch screen drivers, its my last idea other than getting rid of the headache and just waiting until my upgrade
From what you describe, it seems like you are dealing with a dead part. It's not like a PC where you can just install a driver to make the touch screen work.
If you don't want to spend any money to replace the screen, I would sell the phone as it is to recover any money that I can.

I just had this issue with a Note 4. This is what worked for me. Install Samsung Kies. Go to tools > update firmware. It's going to warn you about erasing everything. Just do it after you backup what you need. It'll download the latest lollipop firmware, boot into download mode, and then flash the firmware. When it reboots, you'll still have the screen issue. Dial *#2663# and update the firmwares. It should work now. Worked for me!
Exact same issue here as well. After rooting my phone and installing CM 12 on it all of a sudden my touchscreen calibration is waaaay off. Its more pronounced the further down the screen you go (ie I click in the 2/3 section top to bottom to click on the actual bottom) but with the s-pen everything is fine. I tried the code dial *#2663# but then I receive the prompt "connection problem or invalid mmi code". I am connected to the mobile network (Rogers in Canada) and mobile data is working without issue. I've tried completely wiping the phone again, all partitions and reformatting system, reflashing CM12 + gapps and still the issue persists. Google-fu isn't turning up with much either, please help!
Thanks!
*#2663* did the Trick! Thanks!

Hi guys,
Has anyone ever had this problem. To my knowledge the phone was never dropped or shocked yet the accelerometer seems to be stuck. (yes rotation is on ) I used a diagnostic app to see if any data was coming from the accelerometer / gyro but it does not move at all. I was rooted and ROM'd with TWRP and Clean Rom (been that way for months), but put it back to stock kernel and rom. Nothing. Same problem. has anyone any knowledge as to changing the gravity sensor chip or any ideas at all? THanks in advance for any suggestions.

Rotation Lock Adaptive Free app. It has many rotation options that may be an answer to your problem.

I had the exact same problem. Androsensor showed that the accelerometer was not working at all. After googling...all I found was to bang on the back of the phone. I didnt believe it at all, but after hours figured I would try it. Took the back cover off and banged on the he phone fairly hard. Turned it back on and everything was working. There are several sensors that apparently get stuck sometines.
I did the same thing with switching roms. Try banging the phone before you waste more time. I was all set to go to Best Buy the next morning to return it.

Did you take the battery cover off? I laid mine face down with the battery cover off. I really couldn't believe that it worked. There wasnt any other information for a fix that I found. You might have to return it.

Rom- s5 sensations version 7
I was using my phone for the past two weeks with no problem, all of a sudden today it would not unlock, I held down the power button then a screen with all these different colours came up
It eventually went away and the screen went black again
Now nothing works it ill not power on and LED wont come on when charging
Can the phone have been hard bricked after 2 weeks of installing the custom rom? :/
Thanks in advance

Hi! This herna from XDA Assist.
Well, normally if you did not touch any deeper thing in your ROM you should have no problem if you have been using it for as much time. Anyway this question should be done in the above thread, so I will move it there so you can get a better reply from people using the same device or even the same ROM than you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help
I will move it to the original place where it should be, and wish you to get the answer you are waiting for.
Try usb jig to force download mode, if that doesn't work then it sounds like a brick -sorry.

I just dont understand how it could be bricked after being perfectly fine for 2 weeks and i had been using it like 5 minutes before no problem :/
Blame the emmc chip, it is very fragile and can go pop at any moment.
Try reading the dead boot recovery thread in general forum.
So I bought this device used its the WiFi model. Now I could've sworn that I checked for any thing wrong with it by just going through the software and had no issues. Now I'm not exactly sure when the problem stated but a few days after I finally decided to root unlock bootloader and flash pure nexus ROM. Now I don't know if that was the cause but my touch screen inconsistently accumulates random touches and swipes. Very frustrating like I don't even feel like using the thing half the time but I still do because its my first tablet and its pretty amazing. Even as im typing this its so annoying because every other 4 or 5 words it ends up double typing the same letter or typing a a different letter. Now I have been searching for fixes for almost 2 weeks now and failed to find anything related to this issue. So my question is has anyone experienced this problem? If so is there a simple software fix? Or is it a hardware issue because if it is a hardware issue I'm screwed because I obviously don't have warranty. Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately,I think it's hardware. But, have you tried flashing it back to stock with a factory image?
