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.
how can i fix this?

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.

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.
I'm not sure if its cause iv'e flashed so many ROMS but my keyboard isn't as responsive as it used to be, i can rarely hit the P key anymore it always will click the O button. Also when it write "hahahahahaha" the A key stops working and only H's will come up like this "Hahahahhhahahhh" something like that. Can anyone help me fix this? Or suggest what I should do?
So i'm guessing i might be the only one? or no one else knows what to say?
Never heard of this. Do you run superwipe after wiping and b4 flashing rom?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA
What's superwipe?
Superwipe is a program that you flash, it does a very good wipe of everything, after you have aleady wiped everything. Ive been using one since the dinc days, never had an issue.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA
Could you give me a download link for it? i might as well start using it now haha.
No I've had this happen as well. It happens with A, S, D, J, K, and L for me. As if it's just those two little strips.
It's only happened recently too though, and has happened even if I use different roms and wipe fully. I might try that Superwipe deal though, I'm hesitant to give up my T-Bolt as I've heard it's the only phone with simultaneous voice/data and 4G.
That would be a hardware problem( i had the same thing).... put ur phone to stock and call vzw.... they will send u out a new one as long as its under warranty

Please can anyone tell me what to do? this is my second LG optimus g and they both stutter randomly when bringing them out of sleep mode and them sometimes flat out power down while in my pocket. I have deleted all programs I could think of and have both rebooted, reset To factory on both units and it still happens like once every 7 Or so times I wake the phone from sleep. What do I do please?
Is the phone on stock untouched? Rooted? Custom ROM? N4 conversion? Details would help us solve your problem.

Did you perform the OTA? I'm not exactly sure but I heard that it fixes the sleep of death.
Sent from my LG Optimus G
first thing first, get a battery monitor app like betterbatterystat so you know the type of process that is causing the drain - app, kernel etc...once you have that information, drill down from there.

Sleep of death...that's the name. Thanks I couldn't remember what they called it. Yes guys the sleep of death is what I hhave.
Now let me get this right. This is not happening to none of your phones (non rooted)?
Second, not that I'm not grateful and all but why would a OTA work when this is my second phone in a row brand new from stock that all of sudden starts to do the same thing out of the blue? Also my phones says I have the latest version. E97010o
And as far as apps it not a app memory issue. I eliminated all possible apps I have downloaded. It never happens in use only When I try to bring it out of sleep.

Latest software version is E97011c. You should root and go with a custom ROM. You'll get better battery life and less issues with Slick ROM or SnowJB.

You should still root and go custom. You'll have much more control over your phone. This means you can remove all the AT&T bloat and install tools that help you configure settings that help you control/monitor performance.

Ok I'm game. But I don't know how or What Rom to install. I want to use my phone just like it is without the sod and maybe jelly bean. But I hear Roms aren't stable and there are bugs and things that they don't due that were there before (use of WiFi,NFC,compasitive buttons use) . What software do I use (I tried one that didn't work. .got the drivers and loaded root soft from admin and it still didn't work). What is the perfect Rom? What is the easiest why to do this?

Flash Snow JB. Do a full wipe INCLUDING internal storage before flashing, though. I've had absolutely no issues on Snow JB.

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.

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 all. I was running Slimbean ROMs on my S3 for ages without issue, when out of the blue the phone began to lock up, freeze or randomly reboot. I tried a different radio to no avail.
Thinking it was the flash memory starting to fail, I restored it to factory/unrooted ready for warranty.
Now the phone is working fine. No crashes. Just terrible Touchwiz.
Anyone have any idea what this could be?
