Am a bit confused cause somthing tells me it has nothing to do with my hardware, Pls guys help me with a possible guide or solution as to wah might be wrong

Back to stock firmware with Odin and test if it works. If not its hardware.

Touch screen response in ICS

So ive flashed ics on my friends SII but from the beginning it had touch problems, for example in the app drawer i have to tap setting 3 times before it registers the touch. For eveything else it works just fine so im sure its not HW related.
Switching kernel improved it (also improved scrolling lag).
Is this a known existing problem with the current kernels? I dont own a galaxy sII so i dont know the issues that are playing atm.
Thanks in advance!

no problem might be bad flash or early beta release that you flashed by mistake
Nah, i thought the same but after flashing again the problem still was there.
Gonna try returning to stock and start again with CM9 Resurrection Edition with Odin. If it still persists i gues the problem is hardware related.
and suddenly everything changes.........!
weren't you on stock ICS before? please use stock with full wipe to test such things.

Well your phone is i9100g... You sure you flashed ROM of i9100g and not of galaxy s2 i9100...coz many people make that mistake..
Post this in the i9100g...idk how much we can help you with this..
Anyways, try factory resetting the phone...if no luck take it to Samsung customer care...it can be a hardware problem. ..
And ya, which ROM are you flashing? The official stock ROM or custom ROM?
Custom ROM do have many bugs and vary from phone to phone. .. Try going to stick for one and check if problem is still there. .
Press thanx if I helped...

cannot post on i9100g dev becoz my post still under 10...
im sure i flash the right rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679636
ya..done factory reset but still got the problem...
like i said before..the touchscreen work fine if i plugin charger or connect usb to pc/laptop...
i dont think it becoz hardware problem since it work perfect on stock GB, stock ICS, aokp, CM and 4-5 other custom ROM...
can it becoz of battery? i use 1650mah...i have try 1500mah and touch screen getting more worst...
i still cant find any solution for my phone..
already try many method like
- using re-partion on odin with pit file
- format data, system, cache, emmc
- wipe data/factory reset/dalvic cache
- flash using odin/cwm
- root/unroot
after done all above..touch screen laggy and still make dash line on drawing...
after my last post...i have try most rom on Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development Section and my touchscreen on all rom are working perfect except official stock JB or custom rom base on stock JB...
forgot to mention that the day on my 1st time installing stock JB i accidently flash Galaxy tab 2 p3100 firmware and got softbrick
but successfuly unbrick then done flashing stock JB...dunno if this incident can damage my phone...
or is other way to make FULL FORMAT internal SD? to make sure the file that i accidently flash completely remove...

you could try Blazing Kernel, it can be flashed via stock recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113545.
Or you could also flash original GB and upgrade to JB either through OTA or KIES.

I have tried that two methods, Flashing GB (everything works great), flashing ICS (everything works great too), and then JB trough OTA and the touch screen doesnt work properly. I have tried the last Blazing Kernel too without success.
Thanks for the help.
Any ideas?
Try stock kernel. Customs aren't ready yet.

We have the same problem dude, touch screen not working properly after stock jb (xef) flash but working flawlessly when phone is plugged. I can't have a custom rom above 4.2.1, else I have the problem. Now I'm on CM10.1 4.2.1 and can't leave it because of this, the official rom I want is the official.
Did you got the screen of your phone replaced ? Because mine was and I was wondering if it was that.

Not sure if it was replaced because I bought it used on ebay.
But are you using CM10.1 4.2.1 without touch screen problems? Can you tell me the date of the release so I can try to flash my phone with that ROM?
Thanks
Yeah without touch screen problem. It's 20130213 nightly

[Q] Mini Pro SK17i - Touchscreen broken even in recovery, after installing a 4.3 Rom

(Sorry for my english) Hi folks, I have a problem... using the search button I saw many threads talkin' about touchscreen's problems.
I tried with the many solutions over there, but my problem is different.
I installed the Legacy Xperia 4.3 Rom, after that, my phone starts to have problems with the touch.
When I used the sliding qwerty keyboard, touch doesn't work, but when I used my phone in vertical mode, it works for a couple of seconds.
Then, I remove the Rom and I used the 4.2.2 Rom from Legacy Xperia.
The touchscreen doesn't work even in the recovery menu. At first I thought that it was a hardware problem, but when I replace my touchscreen the problem still doesn't fix. I noticed another thing. I can't flash >4.1 kernels anymore. I tried to flash the same 4.3 kernel that bricked my touch and my phone doesn't boot at all. With another kernel, my phone turns on properly. Please, help me... :crying:

Yes... I tried many solutions, like Aroma method, Active ROM method, flash stock ics rom metod, but nothing changed. I think that my problem must be a software problem because now I can't flash any >4.1 kernel.

Try flashing the following combination :
Lupus Jb v7 kernel (link : http://goo.im/devs/wedgess/LuPuS-MPDI-Kernels/JB/mango)
Hepta Error Rom (link :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2336571)
I swear mini pro feels like its possessed or something (generally speaking )
For me, the LegacyXperia ROM and its kernel always gave problems with touch and my right soft key would go haywire. The only stable combination that worked for me is the one I posted above. Try it, and see if it helps!

[Q] Touch Screen Not Working After Temasek Unofficial CM11

Hello everyone, I was using ultimarom till now and it worked like a charm. Today I thought hey lets upgrade to android 4.4 so I found temasek's rom and it seemed fine. After flashing the rom, it got stuck on boot screen. So I reflashed the stock rom (btw I wiped everything as required) and it was working. So I retried flashing the Temasek's rom and it booted this time, only thing is that my touch screen was not responding. The capacitive buttons are working also the touch screen is showing everything but not responding to anything. I searched a little bit, and it might be possible that my digitizer is broken which I hope is not since I am in a different country and it will be a pain to do it here. Also I read that if you tried to install Note 2 kernel/rom this might happen but I know that temasek's rom is definitely for s3 so it shouldnt be the case for me. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I tried with both stock and temasek once again and the touch screen still does not respond. I always used cwm for recovery though, and did a factory reset on the stock recovery once to see if that works. I can flash ultima as well I suppose but I am not sure if that will fix it.
Edit: I tried to flash ultima but the installation steps required the use of touch screen so I could not proceed.
Are you sure that you download Temasek's rom for I9300 not for another model? Because Temasek supports more devices.
And on Temasek's thread I didn't find any user complaining about touch screen issue after installing it,so I think that you flashed it for different model.

Flash back to stock with odin if problem is still there then it is hardware issue....
I rechecked and it is temasek for I9300. I restocked ofc with odin and it is no use tbh. I mean it is weird as the first time I flashed stock rom the touch screen was not working for 30 seconds or sth than it started working so I was really happy for a second.. After another flash it was not working and I was like yea it will work soon, but it didnt. I tried with loads of roms and kernels and it is still no use.
Any help? I have no idea how to fix this! I may have to send my phone for replacement which will be costly I suppose.. Any little tip will be appreciated.

Didn't u install the new version of Cwm? I'm using ultimarom v16 & I try to use Android v4.4.2... It seemed good to me

Solution
Hey dude, I couldnt find any solution to that problem. What I did was to send it in for replacement but with warranty. For that you need to triangle away your phone and also install the official firmwares. I had to use a mouse in order to do that but you will need a usb to micro usb converter, which is not that hard to find( and also cheap). They couldnt tell that I installed unofficial firmware, I replaced my screen flawlessly. You can find how to triangle away your phone in this forum and also sammobile is the place to look for official firmware.
Cheers

Please someone help =(

I flashed this stock rom here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53767196 for my GT-i9200 Mega
coming from silentnight's flashable stock rom & another time from C-ROM 4.4.3,
each time i flash the stock rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53767196) it completes, reboots just fine, and when it starts up my screen doesnt respond anymore ive tried factory resets and full wipes & reflashed multiple times, idk what to do to make it work.
i can still go back to custom roms and my screen works fine on those. ive even tried going to 4.2.2 official stock but that doesnt work either.
someone please help =(
If you have issues with particulary ROM then ask questions on this ROM's thread.Besides - how can you say so this ROM is stock? It isn't and ask developer for help.

i have asked multiple times and im getting no response which is why i took my question here. if u werent gonna help me figure out something u didnt have to reply. and i can say its a stock rom because thats what it is. Stock Russian 4.4.2 kitkat Update for the GT-I9200. the only thing is this developer removed knox & the recovery. ive tried both versions of the rom and ended in the same result.
I would say, to re download your original stock rom, and flash again. Maybe there was a problem with your first download. Or try to find the same ROM from a different source. Then download that one. There may have been something wrong with your original stocker..... Or, try a different version of Odin
Good luck
