Hey all.
Since getting my s3 I noticed that when I go to unlock it the screen is unresponsive for a few seconds then responds to touches. Also when I type x or c in the keyboard it doesnt work. Then the touch stops responding for a few seconds then it all works. Is this related to sds?

it was on stock telstra rom when i got it. ive been on numerous custom roms since then and its happened on all of them except when i used siyah kernel and enabled s2w. so i think it may be a hardware issue?

So, recently, my touch screen has been pretty wonky. Sometimes it doesnt work at all and even pulling the battery and booting it back up doesn't fix it. Sometimes when it locks The screen isn't responsive afterwards to unlock but then locking and waking the screen again fixes it. Just wondering if there is a fix for this or if anyone else has had these same problems. I've trued full CWM wipes and Fastboot wipes and also tried different ROMs. Any help would be cool but if not I may just have to ditch the MAtrix for a different phone until my upgrade.
What is your phone currently running at the moment?

I got the same issue, when charging my Atrix, touchscreen won't work.
I'm running CM9 alpha6 by Jokersax
For those having issues while charging, make sure you are using a motorola charger. Please give results back.

I'm running CM7 Ba2tF from the atrix dev team with the kernel that comes with it. No other tweaks other than that.

So, I've been using the Wet Dream blur ROM for the past week and it's acting about the same way. I haven't had to go to the extreme of wiping it yet while on Wet but unresponsiveness is still a problem here and there.
EDIT: I haven't had touch capability since the 10th. I've tried flashing a couple other ROMs to no avail and don't really know what to do at this point.
Is a warranty claim even possible or would it just be a futile effort?
EDIT II: Sent it in on a warranty claim. We will see what happens I suppose. If not, I'm going GSII
EDIT The Third: Well, after fruitcake back to stock I sent it in and they fixed it all up and sent it back to me. So, that's that for what it's worth. Like the sig says my MAtrix got stolen so I'm on to the GSII forums but I'm definitely going to keep up with what's going on with Atrix.

Do one thing :
Go to dialpad
Type
*#*#7378423#*#*
Go to service tests,--
Touch screen
Check your touch is responding well or not,if not,service center guys can only help (as its hardware related)
Or else,just flash your Rom again!

Since yesterday I am facing this problem.
Last evening the touchscreen of my phone just stopped responding. It happened so: all of the sudden the touch wouldn't respond. Pressing the power button to switch of the screen for sleep mode was not happening. The last thing I had done was pull down the notification bar so that so it was stuck there. I pressed and held the power button to restart and it worked fine. After a few hours again it happened. Restarted again. Worked. But now everytime its happening. It stops responding. I restart then it works for 2-3 minutes and stops responding and again Ihave to restart and again it stops after a couple of minutes.
I tried going into recovery mode and download mode and it enter and it charges properly also.
Also, last night I switched the phone off and I left it on charge annotd today morning when I switched it on the problem is still there.
please help me out
My galaxy s3 is rooted and its running on stock rom 4.1.2 and siryah kernel.
Is it a hardware problem or software? What can be done?
Another thing just happened now. It stopped responding while I was watching a video on youtube. The screen didnt respond but the video was working and after a while the video stopped but the audio was still playing!
R: HELP! S3 touchscreen not responding.
I heard somewhere syiah doesnt support 4.2 try another kernel. Did u update kernel/rom recently?
Have you tried removing the phone's battery and waiting for a half hour or so?

Its not 4.2 It's 4.1.2 Using the official one. And I have been using the siyah kernel for over a month now. Never seemed to cause a problem and never updated anything.
And no I didnt take out the battery. I just kept it switched off. Anyway I will do that too now.
R: HELP! S3 touchscreen not responding.
Okay....so you did nothing? Perhaps you're stressing the cpu/gpu too much and kernel does not totally support 4.2.x yet....try flashing perseus kernel also, it cant hurt...

Should I flash stock firmwire then try rooting it again and then flash the kernel?
The thing is I used to use my phone while on charge. A friend says the circuits must have gone haywire but this doesn't seems like a hardware problem.

If u use your phone while on charge that only harms the battery (it will make it last less...but it is inevitable anyways who dooesnt use phone whike on charge)...
What would be the very best option would be to factory reset through recovery (u have clockworkmod right?) (U can save apps with titanium backup) and flash a new rom and THEN a new kernel.
If you flash foxhound it comes with kernel already backed.
BUT before doing this (nobody likes to start off fresh) just try flashing another kernel first(or try and get an updated version of siyah kernel, maybe you got the s2 variant, which has a higher build version than the s3, making it look obsolete).

Hi,
im using Atrix 4G rooted with 4.4.4 kitkat rom BigPart. im using this rom for quite a while when all the sudden my touch screen is freaking out, opening apps by itself tapping at certain place on my phone activates other touch places.
its like the phone is thinking im touch a diffrent place on the phone.
tried recalibrating touch settings but no luck.
I have my phone for 3 years.

try a factory reset, or install a clean rom and check if the problem persists, if it does then it might be a hardware problem.

What is the five finger touch thing you are talking about? i have run most of the lollipop roms and have not had an issue with the touchscreen being unresponsive. right now I am running the official cm12 nightlies with the aosp 777 kernel.
I have tried several and they all will become unresponsive. I read somewhere to touch the screen with 5 fingers and it unlocks the screen.

Its not just you. Ive had the same thing on AOSP based ROMs on two different G3s. You basically have to overload the touch sensor to make it begin responding. It hangs most frequently with calls.
I haven't seen it on CM12.
Hey you're not the only one. This happens with everybody. I don't know if anyone fixed it or not. I had to bump this topic because it happens on every single rom besides stock.

Nope was about to post about it
Hello,
I had this problem for months on each and every ROM I tried. 2 times out of 3, I had to remove the battery to restore the touchscreen.
However, I've read this five fingers touch trick about a week ago, and it changes everything : that WORKS !
Though it is not a true definitive solution, this workaround stopped me to ditch my phone for an iPhone... (naaahhhh )
I am glad it works. I am still on rooted stock KitKat, with the last Skydragon 4 kernel, so I have never had this problem.
