Hi all, I was a member here for a dozen of years, but cant recover my acc because Iam not using gmail anymore ; )
Back to question: I used z5c because lineage, after windows phones, and all worked fine. Yesterday, I placed phone in my front jeans pocket, had full hands of some bags. Then, I sat in car, took phone out and touch didnt worked. No any physical problem visible. Phone itself looks as before - mint condition. I tried to reboot several times, went into twrp... nothing happened. touch was unresponsive.
I left it turned off for, maybe 6 hours, then I turned phone on and touch worked! But, I noticed that it is very sensitive - really soft touch was enought to perform action. I took soft cloth to clean display and turned only display off. When I turned it on, after few seconds touch stopped working again!
Touch worked fine before, same during this short period of time when worked again. Never noticed any problem with it.
Any idea why this happened and what I can do?
UPDATE:
I left phone turned off and put it on charger. He had 20% bat. I took him at 99% turned on and touch working again!
also, I can bet, I am 100% sure, that yesterday, while using otg mouse, I didnt saw in settings > display > high touch sensitivity option even I tried to find it several times. I thought that option, for gloves is turned on. And now I went again there, and that option is present! Hows that... And it is turned off.
Anyone have idea what to do with touch? Why is that happening?

I have a T-Mobile Pocket Phone Edition,
It's had a rough life but as kept going for over 3 years now.
For the last year I would have to realign the screen 2 or 3
times a week but over the last few months it keeps getting worse.
Sometimes the screen won't respond to anything anywhere,
then after I tap it a few times boom works fine.
Sometimes I'll tap on the “Ok” and the “Start menu” will activate.
Sometimes drawing a line up the center of the screen will end up
shooting all over the screen.
And sometime it will work perfectly!
I thought the problems were to erratic to be hardware so
I hard set after awhile it started again,
So I hard set and installed a different ROM after a coupe hours
the problem was back.
Also sometimes the align program will get stuck in a
loop that doesn't end.
I've searched but can't find an answer? Anyone have an idea?
I've already taken it a part once but couldn't see how to get
any further after I toke the back panel off? Please help!
WOW nobody? So no one was heard of this problem before?
Can anyone direct me to directions on taking apart the Wallaby?
Thanks <><
It's a problem with touch screen. You should check (and fix) it.
Maybe it is necessary to press well screen to the motherboard. (Sorry my english).
Ok, Can you tell me where that connection is?
Thanks
Toke everything apart, found the connection, cleaned everything (w/ screen wipe)
put it all back together. Still have the touch problem and now the backlight won't work!
I've found if I press the unit in my hand the touch panel works right,
I don't think it's a lose connection to the main board so I think it must be
one on the main board.
If anybody thinks they want it for parts let me know! :?

I had the exact same problem, and I had to hard reset everytime, but as soon as I would press the end key it would be unresponsive. What I learned is that right after you hard reset you should only try waking pressing other keys than the end key and let it go to sleep by itself. Also did you use any EVO android builds, or Android at all, not sure if it's relevant, but that's where it all went wrong for me with the EVO build. I do find it quite odd that quite a few people are experiencing the same thing with the touchscreen and it also seems that there really isn't a solution to this. I had to send it in for a repair, and it got fixed pretty quick. Perhaps this needs to be investigated more.
i have same problem with my htc hd2
it is so annoying. i will send to repair service too..
hey i have the same problem too ! did you installed the new c0okies home tab ? because i did and after that it start it messing up.. well i did a thread yesterday about this.. the only responses i got was to send it back to repair. I just did not turn off the screen for nothing today during the whole school day it almost finisihed the whole day, it last it me about 6 hours without turning off the screen, otherwise the touchscreen becomes unresponsive.
Temporary fix/test
I just fixed it temporarily, i fixed it by taking off the battery cover and pressing down on the htc logo (below lcd) and pressure on both the front and back of the phone where the htc logo is.
if you do this and it fixes it, you most likely have a dodgy lcd/digitiser flex ribbon cable.
I'm using an HD2 on T-Mobile, still running the stock Windows. (haven't gotten around to slapping android on yet)
A.) ... was at work today, took the phone out of my pocket, and I couldn't get the screen to go on. The hardware buttons on the bottom would go on, and I could feel it vibrating and booting up when I powered it on, but after hard resetting(removing the battery, I mean) the screen still wouldn't go on.
.....so I go home with it powered on still, pull it out of my pocket and BAM! the screen goes on and it looks normal... but....
1.) Now the bottom 5 hardware buttons won't go off when I lock the phone. Sometimes they're dim, sometimes they're bright as if I'm using it. sometimes they flicker on and off.
2.) the screen won't brighten beyond 20%. It adjusts 10-20% fine, but sliding it from 20%-100% does nothing.
3.)In addition, whenever I hook it up to a PC to charge/transfer files, I SOMETIMES get the "This Device would work faster in USB 2.0" message. that I never got before these issues. This is confirmed by slow transfer speeds when this happens(400-600kb/s instead of the normal 3-5mb/s). This leads me to believe it could be something internal in the phone...
Worth taking to T-Mobile? Not sure what they can do for free, I bought it used about a month ago.
I Tried a factory reset recently, didn't do anything to help these problems.
I tried running it on another battery, same issues.
Think putting android on it could help any?
XDA Devs is the best around for this type of thing, so I figure there's someone on here who could give some advice. I love the phone, but these problems are awful! Thanks so much!
try re-flashing the stock ROM first (factory reset might be not enough), then if the symptoms reappear I'd think of warranty repair
Hellow everybody! 4 days ago I got the screen I ordered from ebay and I have a big problem! I installed the screen on the phone, and the phone was booting up, the touch screen worked I could sense the lock screen when I touched it but nothing! Also the phone was burning! after noumerous tries , the screen finally worked the next day! But one day after , it had the same problem!Now the screen is black since two days ago! Any help! I tried repairing with pc companion, but the screen still remains black!!
Since you installed it yourself, you maybe made a mistake during install, something wrong got connected or something.
You said, that phone heated up. Some connections could have melted or even some chips.
xperia mini pro
The phone worked for a day before repairing. And it didnt worked for two days berfore repair, after it had worked!!
Does it work now or not?
Yes it works , the touch screen works i can feel it by sliding the lock button.
But it remains black, i heard sound about the battery. so the phone works but the screen remains black.
Seems like connection issue between mainboard and the screen. You mentioned getting warm - could have been too hot for the connections.

No I've trying installing the screen many times , but the heat was coming from a single part of the motherboard , i opened the phoned and touched it! It was burnig hot! Now there is no heat , the phone boots up, i can sense the lock sliding when I move it (vibration) but i cant see anything!!! It worked for day perfect! The first morning , heated for some time , but it work after ten minutes for a whole day with no problem! the next day i went to the cafe of the village and connected to the internet by wi-fi connection, when I left, the problem started again ! And the phone is working , as I mentioned before, but the screen isn't viewing anything!
hey, everyone...
quick question to see if anyone has come across this particular issue.
i've been running dirty unicorns, toast kernel alex uses for that rom.
woke the phone up yesterday am after spending the night on the charger.
still plugged in, i checked the time.
pushed the power button again to put it back to sleep.
nothing...the screen stayed on, but frozen.
unplugged it from the charger, screen powered down.
haven't been able to get the screen back on.
strangely, the home, menu, back and search buttons do manage to light up, though.
oddly, enough...the phone still works normally.
i can guess as to what my security pattern is, hit the magnifying glass to power up google now and ask it questions.
i can also receive phone calls and swipe to take or hang up the call as usual.
once on the call, i can guess as to where the red bar is for hanging up.
phone works like normal...as long as i can guess as to where everything is.
also, when in lock screen mode i can side swipe to get to the camera and take pictures.
so, essentially, screen doesn't work...but, it still recognises and accepts touch input.
i just can't see a damn thing.
any idea?
took it to a sprint corp store and they changed the housing for me...for free.
changed the screen, top housing, etc.
they said it looks like it might be the board.
any ideas beyond that?
thanks again, everyone!
also, on a weird note...my battery is bulging in the middle.
i guess it's on the way out...with everything else.
I've had this phone for years and am having this issue too. Anyone have an idea?
yeah, it turns out that my screen's fried.
at least that's what the sprint tech told me.
pretty much everything works perfectly.
impeccably...i just can't see it.
i guess that's it for the phone unless i want to replace the screen.
they're rather inexpensive...depending on where you source it from.
