Well, I have had the 3D since launch. After the first couple of days I started seeing phantom touches. After 1 week I started to notice this was getting far worse and that the display/digitizer was registering touches when nothing was near the device.
Called Sprint walked through a full wipe of the OS and reinstall. That was a no go and wasted nearly 2 hours of my time on the phone... However the Level 2 tech agreed that it appeared to be a failure of the device and advised that I return it to the Sprint store.
Got to sprint and showed them the video I had made of what the phone was doing. They also agreed that something was wrong with the phone and replaced it immediately.
Just in case I am not the only one that is having this problem I am uploading the video to youtube... I will share that link with you as soon as it is done uploading.
This is a video showing the issue using the "draw" application:
If you run into similar issues let me know!
I've seen some strange things happen but I figured it was the Otterbox Defender case or humidity here in Florida.
Will watch more closely now. Thanks for the report!
I've also been having strange issues, where touches are appearing out of nowhere. Had to turn off the pattern lock as a result, since I nearly got locked out of my device since it wouldn't register my pattern properly. It seems to 'reset' itself after a couple reboots, but starts acting up again at a later random time. Between the poor GPS performance and this issue, I'm starting to wonder if I upgraded from my Evo 4G a bit too early...
Same thing happens to mine while texting I would click a letter but it would click another one. It just did it once tho
never discount the existence of a true phantom pressing those screens ;p
I have heard of several people with the issue. Kinda makes me nervous. Already swapped 1 due to bad camera.

Same thing happens to my e3d
My touchscreen is having issues lately too. It'll work fine for several hours, then the screen will either be unresponsive or register phantom movements. Sometimes it won't register the lockpattern as I move my fingers, and other times it refuses to swipe left or right between screens. I've been trying to figure out if it's some kind of software or hardware issue, but no luck. I'd hate to return it(since it's my 2nd 3D) but if it continues for the rest of the week, it's going back. I made a video clip of it jumping screens randomly just in case the Sprint store ask any questions.
*update
I installed the paint program like OP did and had similar things happen on mine with the random lines and unresponsive screens. I guess I'll return tonight for 3D #3....
Mine just started doin the same thing lately, any of you have results yet? Did you turn in your phone or did they repair it? I really dont wanna go to the sprint store and turn mine in because i dont want a refurbished unit. 9/10 in the past when ive went through insurance, the phone they send me is broken as well and then it goes round and round. Sometimes my phone will just stop responding to touch, it will have phantom touches and/or on the htc_ime mod keyboard on compact qwerty; the ui, jk, m, . column up and down wont work at all. strange to say the least, never had this happen to any of my phones before.
My launch day EVO 3D is being replaced also due to this issue. She be back up and running with my new phone Wednesday.

Well mine developed this problem a few days ago.
The top inch or so of the screen and when I get this problem the touch sensitive buttons also dont work sometimes.
My problem and my question is that, I dont have insurance on the phone, I bought it on Amazon from a private party after my EVO 4G was stollen.
If I take it to Sprint can they just replace the digitizer, since this is a defect of the phone and would that even fix this problem?
If you don't have insurance on the phone then you need to go on ebay and search for evo 3d lcd digitizer housing. Yesterday, I paid $50 shipped from usa.
If you cant find a good listing then u can buy the lcd + digitizer (or just the digitizer) without housing. But it's hard work to do these two because those things are glued and painful to disassemble. It will definitely look jacked up after all your hard work. Just get it with the housing (front black plastic)
Here is a usa seller with what i'm talking about but he as no feedback so i didnt buy from him.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-EVO-3D-...ultDomain_0&hash=item1c20adc044#ht_2172wt_286
There is a hi res disassembly video on youtube.
I've been experiencing this issue lately as well. I've had this phone since the month it was released and it only started acting up as of a couple weeks ago. It started off as the touch screen not registering any touches, not even the capacitive buttons. Then this week it started it started doing the crazy phantom touch thing. In order to get it working, I simply shut off the screen then turn it back on again. It seems to happen less if I'm lighter on the screen. Thank gawd I'm not the only one experiencing this.

I called a sprint store and they told me that they would either replace the digitizer or the phone for a fee of 35 dollars, since I did not have insurance.
So, I took my phone in and they had another screen that was from another phone that had a different problem.
After they replaced it, he did not charge me
I was happy until I started to drive home and I was checking it some more and realized that the new screen also had the same digitizer problem.
I guess im headed back to Sprint tomorrow hopefully they give me another phone. and I will happily pay the 35 dollars.
Wow thats a real good deal. I never considered taking it for repair. I thought it must be cheaper to do it myself. I hope they can get you a working one. I'm sure they won't try to charge you for it when you go back.
I'm having trouble with my Evo as well, not sure if its the same issue or not.. for about the past week my notification bar will be intermittently unusable, I can't pull it down at all.. then sometimes it'll work. Unfortunately the times I've been near a sprint store it's working fine.. UGH. Also it's been giving me some random letters occasionally when texting, or the most aggravating is when it "clicks" the backspace button and that sticks and it erases whatever text I just wrote. Sounds like a similar issue.. I just wish mine was consistent, sometimes it works perfect.
Call me an idiot but whats the app that you were using!?
Edit:nvm found it haha
Well today i paid the 35 dollars and will be getting another phone
A really good app for testing screen problems is call "touch test"
http://www.appbrain.com/app/touch-test/org.hermit.touchtest
Mine seem to get worse when i had more then one finger on the screen. and it got really bad with just a little bit of preasure on the screen.
I'm having a similar problem but it is only with the capacitative soft keys.
I have problems from time to time. It gets so annoying on Swype because it will leave breaks while I'm Swyping and instead of one word I'll get like four weird words instead. Very cumbersome.

Well I'm on my second EVO. My first one the screen seemed very vibrant, this one, not so much. I don't know if it's just me. My current one also has the light leak from the home button which bothers me when I see it but don't notice it otherwise. The last issue is rebooting or shutting off. I go commando with my evo (no case) as you know it's a slippery phone. My first evo fell a couple of times form about 3-4 feet, no biggie. I notice with this phone that everytime it gets hit a bit hard it turns off and you have to reboot it to start up again (power + volume down). Yesterday it slipped out of my hand while I was sitting at my desk and it must of fallen about 10-12 inches. Of course this is a refurbished phone.

Great insight, tell me more. Why even waste the time to post this?
you are right, ill tell you what you want to know.
" the phone probably has a loose cable inside of it, and should be replaced. you can either show a sprint rep in store by banging it hard on your hand or calling the insurance and telling them its a faulty replacement, i had a similar issue with a display that would flicker in and out at times as if it was off. "
Thank you for your reply. Maybe I worded my question weirdly. I was just asking if the issues that I stated would be enough for you to go exchange the phone. I know I can get a new one, no big deal. Everyone is a bit different on their tolerance of issues.
When you go in pick the weakest or dumbest looking rep and be forceful about what you want. tell them you KNOW the problem and it shouldnt be happening. i got my phone replaced recently due to a graphic flicker when playing games. they didnt want to exchange it at first but i won in the end. because i KNOW cellphones and how they should work
Did you get a new phone or a refurbished phone? I know the reps at the Sprint store by my house, they'll give me a new (to me, but still refurbished) phone. Just wondering if it's even worth it since my issues are minimal.
I have the TEP from Sprint. My screen is messed up. Over the past couple weeks it's sometimes unresponsive, sometimes doing phantom button presses. I can literally turn the screen on sometimes and watch it as it moves the notification bar down, or attempts to swap screens. It even does random button presses in TWRP or CWM recoveries.
I'm going to be taking it in, my question is.. does anybody know whether or not they are giving refurb'd Evo3D for warranty claims? Or is it another phone completely? When i had my original Evo, i had warranty work done and they gave me the 3D because they didn't have anymore Evo's left. Has anybody done warranty work lately?
Thanks.

Yeah they've got Refurbs out the ass right now, I literally begged on the phone for a evo 4g lte because I read a few places that people got lucky, I even hung up and called again many times lol, Evantually the lady explained that they ran out of 3vo's for a while so they had to give better phones.
And they will replace it as long as the screen isn't shattered, Digitizer is their problem (Although the digitizer and screen are the same thing... Their kinda stupid...) I'm on my 3rd 3vo, And I'm literally about to go to a sprint store in a half hour to see about another replacement, I dropped my phone and destroyed the mother board, It don't do ****. lol, At all. nothing. Gone. lmao:laugh:

Thanks for the fast response!
Also, do they typically have these on hand at the repair centers now? Or is it something that needs to be shipped via asurion?

Asurion deals with the insurance, Which you'll be charged $100 for.
Sprint deals with warranty, And most likely they'll check out your phone, and put in a new order and have you come back 3 to 5 days or so later to switch out for the new phone, they "Might" have it on hand, But i've never had this, And the 3vo is getting pretty old so they'll almost definitely have to order one.
And the phone will come without an SD or Battery, So make sure you charge up your battery.
Edit: Thanks button?? No?? lol.
Edit Edit: Hell yeah! lol. Got a new thanks.

If you ever have to go through Asurion (100 damned dollars.) They give you a new 8 GB card and a new battery, I've been through it all lol, 3 Refurbs, and 2 insurance claims (Me and my wife have the same phone, I've broke both of em LMAO)

Mine's the same. Depending on when your contracts up and whether or not you're able to deal with it. (Mine's worst when I'm outside in the cold, but generally passable indoors with occasional lock ups, button presses, etc). You may just want to sit tight and see what is officially announced for a spring release.

Well.. I took it to the sprint store because it became almost unusable. I could turn the screen on and have about 7 seconds until it froze or started randomly opening, moving stuff around. Flashed back to stock (from CM 10.1, didn't want them to know i voided all warranties) and took it in. They saw i had the TEP and said to give them a half hour, and they would have it fixed. They replaced the screen for me in minutes. Now everything is good as new.
I've never had that good of customer service with Sprint.

Glad to hear, I'm waiting on a call on whether my device has arrived or not.
Screens are super dooper easy to replace for next time, and pretty damn cheap too.
Note: They only last a little while in most cases lol, So don't be too excited.
My sprint store has lots of evo 3d parts than evo phones..
Took it yesterday & got a new battery, housing, screen , & motherboard.
Feels bran new.
Well my awesome sauce with the note 2 seems to be doing downhill... I LOVE my phone... then all of a sudden yesterday I had it sitting on the arm rest of my recliner.... I accidentally knocked it off on to the hardwood floor and it must have hit just right as it cracked the screen. The phone still functioned fine, but the screen was cracked. I took it to a local cell phone repair shop to have the screen replaced. When they put it back together it wouldn't boot... well then after replacing a button, it booted and they thought that was it. Well after it booted I made a call, and as I set the phone down, I noticed it turned off. So after a couple of more boots and confirmations that tapping it at the top of the device did this, I got a charger. Well with the charger plugged in it does the same thing, which tells me it's not a battery connection as google searching would lead me to believe. Please tell me someone knows something to try and fix this? Should I just cut my losses and buy a used device? I see beans has his on swappa and it's making me consider coming up with the money to do that. Thanks for any input/advice!!!!

Damn! They're supposed to test it out after they replace the screen and give it back to you. These screen replacements are very sensitive and you have to really use caution when messing with them. I've never heard of this but do you have a case on it or around it at the moment? sorry man. Have you discovered anything else?
Well after he spent some time with my phone last night, he said he thinks he found a loose cable. I picked it up today and it hasn't shut off yet. The screen looks beautiful by the way. Back to playing around with Trents Rom!

Glad the store solved that out. I've had a similar thing if I tap my phone on a table around the camera area it just shuts off as well. Only solution I've found is using the massive case from the 9300mah zero Lemon battery. Adds a sought bit of bulk

I droped my DNA about 1 month ago and the screen cracked, luckily the digitizer was fine but the glass was cracked bad. Then a week later I guess I was to "rough" with my DNA and I screwed up the digitizer. Al I could see was a black screen with some green and purple lines going on it. So I needed to get it replaced, it would cost me around $150. Everything was working, even the screen, I could still feel the vibrations of me trying to put in my passcode, in other words, it could still recognize me puting in touch inputs but I could couldn't see what I was touching. I put in my head phones to listen to music, and it was fine, the sound was clear and everything. 2 weeks later I go to the repair shop to get it fixed, they put on a new screen and it looks brand new. I get home and I notice the side of the screen is messed up because when I try and press the q button on the keyboard it types the lettet w. So as hard as I try to type the letter q, it won't work. Sadly, I didn't test out my earpiece or the headphone jack. Now I take it back and they order a new LCD and digitizer. I come back in a couple of days so they can put it on the screen works fine. The next day I try to call one of my friends but I notice there was a problem. When I call the screen goes as normal, but when I take the phone away from my head, the screen doesn't come back on. No matter how hard I tried to get it back on, it would get back on. Worst, the earpiece didn't work. I couldn't hear anyone in a call, they could here me but I couldn't here them. I take it back to the repair place, they order like 10 earpieces but it didn't fix the issue. Now they are saying that the problem is my motherboard. So at this point, the only things that don't work are the proximity sensor, the camera because I get an error (cannot connect to camera error), the earpiece, and the headphone jack because its all staticy when I try to watch youtube videos. Yes I have tried many many headphones but the problem keeps persisting. I forgot to mention that my doubletap2wake doesn't work or my sweep2wake. A couple of days later the guy who owns the shop says the problem is the motherboard. I try to get my money back but I had no luck. What do guys have to say? I came in for one problem to get fixed, then I get another. Worst of all my phone just shuts off at like 50%. I can't restart it or anything, I have to connect it to a charger in order to turn it on? What do you guys have to say? They said that when you open up the phone, the pins that holding things in place break off and people get these issues. Sorry for this being so long.

Sounds like they messed it up bad when they put it back together. What repair service did you use. It might not even be worth bothering with the phone anymore it sounds like they messed it up when they were in there fixing it. Make them fix the entire thing or make them get you a new phone. Judging by how many problems are present you may as well just get a new phone.
Please press the thanks button if I have helped you in anyway.

I do agree it is time to move on to a new phone. Although as much as we want to MAKE THEM get us a new phone because they missed it more then it was already messed up. Not going to happen. I have the HTC one max and I would recommend that and or you could go after the latest HTC device the famous M8

Nope, warranty expired a couple of months ago. The weird thing is, my friend stepped on my phone at school, then when I turned it over, it wasn't cracked and what is more bazzar, everything was working fine, the dt2w, the s2w, the earpiece, the proximity sensor, the camera. Then an hour later, those things were back to not working again.

Here is what I would do in this situation. Sell this phone as a phone that is not working and can be used for parts on eBay. Then with whatever money you can get try and buy a new phone.

Agreed... You should be able to find a DNA on eBay or craigslist for way less than $300.

I just got my DNA from a friend who bought it for $100 used. The only reason he didn't want it is he didn't realize he wouldn't get LTE on AT&T..It's near mint condition...so, they're out there.

The cool thing is that there's more and more great phones for cheap, especially with craigslist!
