Can you send us some pictures?
At this phone you can change only the digitizer or digitizer with lcd i reccomend this one. The digitizer for this phone is glued on lcd.
At my wife phone appeared some shadows on screen when she droped the device on watter.
I opened the phone(bye bye warranty, chinese waranty) and dried the phone. Shadows are gone now.

i think they must be video(not picture) because the lcd is fine. flawless. the problem is about the touches. i dont touch it but it act like i touched it. do you understand the situation? i didnt do anything but it( the lcd) act like i touched it. i dropped the phone few times but nothing happen. until one day, the phantom touch suddenly occur. the touchscreen is quite ok for now. it acts normally since last night. before that i let the battery drained out and recharge until half of the capacity. so what do you think?

Hope someone can help me with this as it is a bit of a strange 1.
I recently replaced the digitizer screen on my X10i because the one that was on there was smashed up good.
Everything went together ok and it all switched on ok but for some reason only half of the screen will work(the bottom half). exactly half way through the screen/digitizer when it is vertical, it stops working. The top half does not work. The digitizer and everything else is in perfect condition so I am very confused as to what it could be.
I have replaced 100's of screen in the past and have never come across this problem.
Is it possible it could be a software issue? Does the software need to be re-calibrated to suit the screen? sounds a bit odd to me but ya never know.
Any help would be great.
thanks
Nobody can help me with this??

Considering the above, last thing to try is to factory reset the phone. If that doesn't fix it, its a hardware issue.
Hello, I want your help to fix my xperia go touchscreen problem. Well, Ive searched the similar problem on the forum but what I found is about "touchscreen not working" only.. was, it's very easy to text and slide trough the screens without any "not so responsive screen".. after few months my xgo became less sensitive like before, when I tried to type as fast as usual. The screen cant detect my touch.. I compared with my friend's xgo and it is easier to text on his xgo.. its because I flashed wrong rom? I flashed one roms so far (superJB and currently back on stock with phantom 1.0.9 kernel) thanks.
Xgo .100 JB with UBL.
Open your device's build.prop using any text editor and check
ro.sf.lcd_density=??
Compare its value with your friend's xperia go and edit it accordingly. After you've done with editing, restart your device.
Check screenshot in the attachment.
Note: Do not put value similar to that of screenshot. It is just for your reference.
If I helped you then press Thank you.

My Xperia Go has the exact same problem recently. It just started happening a few days ago and nothing has changed on the device (software etc). I used to be able to text VERY fast but now it sometimes takes a few pushes of the keys for the device to recognise my touch. I can't believe it is anything in the build.prop as this would have suddenly changed right? MY LCD density there is set to 160 (which is the same as default).
Any help appreciated...
EDIT - I also noticed that since my touchscreen has become un-responsive I had got battery drain issues. The last 2 nights I have gone to sleep and when I have woken up my battery is almost dead... hmmm

I have same problems with my xperia go .it became unresponsive ..
i didnt drop it just became like that .
I get this issue too since i accidently drop it. But when i try to testing games and the phone getting heat up and now its more sensitive than before. Maybe not as sensitive as back there at GB but its better now. Almost as sensitive as when i try using JB at 1st time i think.
Oh yeah.. i even already try to open it before to check if the connector are losen or something like that with no result. And already prepare to changing my touchscreen but i think its not necesary now. Hope this help

Nice... because i am planning to replace my digitizer by my self too when i got my digitizer spare . Just need to know what the other things i would need to change it perfectly (Make sure my XGO still have water resistant capability). Sooo... i would appreciate if u could reporting back when you done it .
Same problem.. My phone is not sensitive as usual.. When typing and gaming, it is really annoying.. :'(
How much is the digitizer for Xperia U?
I didn't do nothing and the phone just became not sensitive to touch.. Sliding is good but when I press 3 times to screen.. Only 2 times approx is known to touch..
Help me out ? Only way is change digitizer?
Just make sure u didnt get touchscreen issue from lag. I use custom rom and the touchscreen is feel better, but some area still hard to use because mine is defect already. U could try search on google for ur digitizer price .

I initially dropped my phone in water (sink), got out immediately and dried in rice. 72 hours later I powered up and all apps work, sound, making calls etc work. The problem is only half the screen works. I've replaced with a new digitizer and LCD screen. And still only half of the screen (same half) works. Do I have any other options? PLEASE HELP Please. My phone was purchased from AT&T if that helps.

Did u replaced the digitizer and LCD or u went to some service center?
Without knowing the problem and changing both the things blindly, surely, waste your money. If touch was not working buddy, then why u replaced LCD?
Okay, now its done, better move on.
If replacement didn't do any good, Then there might be a chance of other hardware problem... You can contact your provider's service center, they will surely look into this matter.

Thanks, I'll call service center. The parts that I replaced were free from a friend, so no loss of money. The screen was cracked from a previous drop but still worked fine and the LCD had a couple of white spots after it fell in the sink. So I changed both for reasons other than just the digitizer not working properly.

I also have been having touch-screen problems. Several parts of the screen don't respond to touch. I'd rather fix this phone than replace it.
I am running Android 2.3.6, kernel 2.6.32.9 [email protected]#2.
I see there is no screen calibration for this version.
I have purchased another digitizer screen but have not yet tried to install it. The ATT service center is not likely to help, as I have rooted the phone and enabled side-loading and mobile tethering.
Two questions:
1. Could changing to a later Android version and doing a screen calibration fix this?
2. How should I prepare for replacing the digitizer, other than a Titanium Backup?
Hey guys, a friend of mine give me his moto e cause he had soft bricked it. Reading through the forum I could reinstall the firmware (4.4.4 latam) and now it's working fine, but there are 5 spot in a vertical line that doesn't register my touches, these spots are aligned in the middle of the screen, one is at the y position of the keyboard, and the others are separated 1cm each other (1 is under the y and the other 3 are above). Could this be a software related problem or I just have to replace the touchscreen? (I've tried factory reset two times but I've not reflashed the firm again) thanks in advance and sorry about my English.
First take a try with Screen tester app die playstore, and change rom once, if didn't helped, you can replace screen assembly at low cost on local markets.
Well, i've reflashed the stock 4.4.4 firmware and it's still the same, i guess i'll have to replace the touchscreen. I dont know how the touchscreen works in this phone but it's a little strange that certain isolated areas in the middle of the screen doesnt work..

I had the exact same problem. I had 4 such huge spots on the left side of the screen where touch didn't work. ROM reflashes don't help. Yeah it's really strange. First I thought it might be cuz of water spilled over the screen but later on found out that the display assembly is completely sealed and water can't get in. Yeah it's really strange how display suddenly stopped working that way..even touches of local phones don't get magically spoiled like this, dunno what's up with moto. I got it replaced from local market for 1300. I would say the quality of the display, touch, brightness, contrast, everything is same as that of the original display. The only thing I suspect is that the glass is not gorilla I guess.

Hey guys, recently I had my Z2 sent to a service shop because it wasn't turning on or charging. The guy at the shop said that it was the battery fault and he changed it, but he also told me that the screen was not working( flickering, ghost touches, unable to work on it). So he put my old battery on and when I went home the phone actually turned on and booted up, but still I had the screen problem. So whenever I touch the screen it doesn't respond and it touches by itself. Tried putting it on rice for 20 hours, dried with a hairdryer and assembled dissamssebled the screen jacks, still the problems wasn't fix. Do I really need to change the whole LCD or is this a problem that can be fixed?

Yes, you have to change the screen, or more precisely, the digitializer.
But since the LCD and the digitialier come in one-piece, you have to change it as a whole, but at a much lower price, as your screen can be sold again and recycle the good LCD panel.

So replacing the LCD would fix the problem right? That's great then because I found an LCD with a very low price (20$), completely new on ebay and I sucessfuly dissassembled the old LCD out of the phone. I'm gonna buy it as soon as possible. Thanks man.
