capacitive buttons not responding - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

i have an evo lte that the whole screen works fine but the capacitive buttons wont work most of the time. i am currently running capt's 4.3 s-off. it seems when they do work its right after booting up and i let it sit for a few min. then when i pick it up after a few touches they stop responding. any suggestions?
*#*#3424#*#* running button test vol+/- and cam work but back< doesnt

i think this miht have something to do with it

can anyone confirm this please or some input. ive tried flashing ruu as well and no luck.

Wife's whole screen and buttons do the same thing from time to time. Sometimes, if you restart it a few times, it will start working again. Pretty sure her ribbon cable looks the same way. My guess is water damage. Her loud speaker is garbage also. Sounds blown but when you look at it, it looks fine, no pieces of metal shavings that I can see. Though, part of the speaker is blocked. We both just upgraded to M8's but damn I'd like to get the LTEvo working, just to play with.

no navi pad

so as most huge problems start out, I got what I thought was a good deal on Ebay.
it's a touch pro that they claimed worked great but the touch pad wouldn't respond. All other controls functioned normally and only 4 months old.
4 months is pretty close, I got the touchpad working by re-soldering the 4 connections on the ribbon cable. but the navi pad only responds in the up-down directions. none of the other buttons on the front work, call buttons, home, back and enter all stay black and do nothing. What's strange is that up and down work
I reflashed it with a stock sprint ruu. then hard reset a couple of times. Nothing helps. I'm trying to get my hands on NAVDbgTool.exe, but i think that will only tell me what I already know. it's not working.
any ideas?!!
try to get the whole assembly. on eghey. also i heard there was an website that specialized in getting htc parts. i cant remember the url though.
I just missed a whole keyboard, screen, and everything a friend was selling. The whole top half of a phone, would have been just what I need.
cracked navipad
So, If any one has an interest in this. I think I solved what's going on here.
we know that the navipad is touch as well as having hardware buttons below.
my up and down directional buttons work fine. but no enter and no home ect. Home, back, and the two call buttons have two on either side and then the directional left and right. so in the left and right sides there is only 1 hardware button on each side meaning that it relies on touch to know where your finger is when you're pressing to know what function to perform.
I got looking really close at my navipad and holding it at angles near light i can see really fine cracks on the left side. So I'm guessing that it being broken is keeping the phone from getting a touch response so it can't assign a function to the press if it doesn't know where my finger is.
but the enter button is also touch sensitive and only works for the first few seconds of the boot cycle or when the device is off and doing a hard reset with voldown+enter+power.
So, at least it's a simple fix if I can find a directional pad somewhere.
Touch pro and Diamond interchangeable?
Does anyone know if the directional pad / Navipad of a Touch Diamond is the same as the touch pro? att fuze looks similar, but looking at a close up picture its obviously different.
I have a similar problem...please visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561892&page=2

HD2 No Screen

Qeustion
My HD screen is off, and i cant seem to get it on again.
I just was working on it 1hour ago, took it out of my pocket and see that i have no screen.
Rebooted the phone, but no succes .. i see the screen turning on, but it light-gray (backlight) but no actual info/colors etc, also tryd a soft reset, no succes.
I have the Energy ROM Com5 build from 8July with the new 2.12 radio rom.
Could it be that in some way the screen died?
Hope someone can help me, im @ work now so i cant connect it with the PC.
When im home im planning to reflash the device ..
Thanks!
Weird
I just pressed a button and the screen turned on, and the colours/info just slowely fade away ... weird.
Could it be that the touchscreen is not oke anymore?
Or could it be a problem in the radio/rom i use? (and therefore a reflash could fix this?)
Hope its a easy sollution, otherwise ill be flashing it to stock and get it fixed by HTC.
Very very strange.
It seems to work again.
Anyone think i should reflash it to stock and try get a new one?
Are these signs of a screen going defect?
I dont know, first phone for me with touchscreen.
I would suspect a faulty screen, if it is still within warranty i would deffinately get a new one, however yes, try going back to stock first, see if it helps, it may be just a bad flash.
screen problem
I've had this and similar problems with my HD2, now on the 5th replacement from HTC in just 6 months of owning the phone. I also had the same problem on my HTC HD previously. Press the power key and just the buttons at the bottom light up but no response from the screen. Also had exactly the same problem your experiencing where you can faintly see the screen but not lit up. Flash it to stock rom and return to HTC for repair.
BEWARE!!! take some pics with date stamps of your handset before returning. They sent me 3 handsets all with the glass front panel not fitted correctly. Check the return handset carefully, you should be able to feel a lip between the casing and the screen as the screen is set a fraction lower than the casing. THis should be uniform all around. They tried telling me that i had damaged it myself despite calling them as soon as the handset had been delivered back to me.

That's 'sleep of death', which affects loads of htc devices.
Oke i will stock it soon and return for repair.
I think its idd a screen problem, cause when the screen isnt functioning anymore, and when i put my ear on the glass, i hear a little squishing sound, like air is escaping .. it doesnt do that when the screen shows info/colour.

TouchScreen Not Responding...

Noticed this morning that my touchscreen becomes unresponsive when i take it out of my HTC desktop dock... only the bottom portion of the screen works and also the four buttons on the bottom work. only way to make it work again is to reboot. doesn't happen if i use just the USB cable to charge. strange??? anybody else having this issue???
I am! Happens when I come out of big apps sometimes. I found if I lock it and unlock it it works sometimes, or just let it sit for a bit works sometimes as well. Otherwise I need to reboot if those don't work.

[Q] soft buttons not working

Last week out of nowhere my soft buttons became either really laggy or i have to press them about ten times for any button to respond, is it my phones hardware or rom or any fix?? Running ViperRez 1.0.3

Bump for same issue.
Phone is in perfect condition never dropped and has always been in a case. Like OP the buttons randomly stopped working, I have to press each one at least 20 times to get it to work once sometimes up to 50 times.
I installed an app with a back and home button but can only use the home since i'm not rooted.
Still under warranty so may get a replacement, unless someone knows what to do.
If you're literally clicking it 50 times then you probably have a n issue with your phone but if it just laggs a little bit, make sure you have a stable rom and a stable kernel and that you arent choosing a laggy governor or underclocking your phone too much
If you turn your display up 100% and put your rezzy in a dark room, you will see a gap at the bottom of the glass and phone housing. Dirt, dust, and crapola can get down in there.....and yes, can eventually cause issues. Before you doubt this, call BigRed and ask how many have been returned because of this......
My last rezzy i took apart a applied a thin silicone to create a seal around the housing. Never had an issue, and fixed the light seep issue
But it is way easier to just backup your junk and flash a different rom to troubleshoot!

I slid my fingernail in the crack and the buttons worked for a few seconds.
I'm thinking that since the rest of the digitizer works fine that there's dirt stuck in there.

Broken screen replaced, touch screen all messed up

Long story short, cracked the hell outta my screen, ordered a stock replacement off amazon for like $20. I followed the instructions, got the screen on, looks great, everything seemed to go fine. Booted up, couldn't pull the lock ring. The captive buttons also do not work. Only like the top 50% of the screen works and its real twitchy if anything. I have taken this apart about 10 times already, re did the connections, even threw my broken screen back on. Moving it around barely touching the digitizer I was able to get the whole screen to work perfectly fine. As soon as I moved it and or seated it properly into the bezel, back to barely working at all. At this point I cant do much of anything with the phone. I am S-ON, rooted, rom'd, TWRP. Anyone have any ideas? I knew I should have just left it broken...:crying: Anyways, this voided my warrenty by removing the sticker on the screw, Anything I can do? And or can I get back to stock, unrooted without the screen working to touch? Pretty mad! My upgrade is not until March and I love my rezound...dummy!
Hi, I just did this on my wife's rezound today, took half a day for me, I scratched the LCD at top, has a half inch line,:crying: the buttons at the bottom barely lights up, other than that everything works..all I can suggest to you is make sure the two flimsy little cables are put back PERFECT..I watched 3 how-to's on youtube also. Good luck
Just did mine today too. Luckily is went smoothly but it took me almost an hour with cleaning up the old glue/tape and putting more down. I think it may be a bad pinch in the ribbon cable though. Might need another hopefully not.
