Hi there, lately I got a strange issue:
Sometimes my screen vould go unresponsive, the phone vibrates twice and It will show the recent apps. The capacitive buttons from the bortom do not work either. Wherever I touch the sxreen the recenr apps list would dissapear, if I touch rhe screen again, they reappear, but otherwise rhe screen is unresponsive. I can switch the phone off, then back on, and also unlock the screen, but then it becomes uresponsive again. This is happening randomly, for intane right now my phone works great. This was hapening on Andromadus audacity b 5 and alsi on sensewich b 7. Anyone else experiencing this or has a solution? Rhanks in advance.

I'm experiencing similar issues on mimicry. Specifically my capacitative buttons are giving me a headache. I'm currently on elite mod with ics touch buttons enabled for safety. Haven't faced the capacitative buttons issue yet since 2days but my entire screen stopped responding to touch(tested with keyboard to make sure the phone didn't hang) randomly...

The phone isn't hanging, on sensewich beta 7 when I press the trackpad I get the mouse pointer wich I can move, just the touchscreen and the capacitive buttons are playing crazy. It is also very hard to replicate the issue, so sendig the phone in for repair wouldn't do much good, because there is a good chance for it to behave normally...

Same with me dude. I'm able to use the menu button on the keypad to confirm that the phone didn't hang. At times there are only random areas of the screen which won't repond to touch. Guys please help us confirm as to whether this is a hardware or software issue..

Edit: Flashed EliteMod CM7 only to find out that this issue remains to persist. Looks like i'll have to get it repaired.
I am very curious how you would replicate the issue for the service tech. If you just send it in, most probably they would send it back to you saying it's all good. If you do send it for repair, please update this post with the findings.
Thanks,

Definitely not an underclock issue?

I was thinking about that as well, and I have set min speed to 844 mhz (stock) and I have the same issue, so I don't think it is that.

+ setting to performance doesnt change a thing either? Sorry, i'm all out of any other suggestions.
Hey i returned my phone to stock froyo 1.34 with s-on.. First day capacitative buttons started working. Second day the non functional horzontal strip in the middle of my screen started working. I'll stay on this stock for a week to test my screen thoroughly and then decide whether its a software issue or hardware. By the way i actually opened up the phone to every part and then put it back together, maybe this is what helped me.

Unfortunately not, I set the governor on performance, but to no avail. I have no idea what's causing it, as it is very random. And it happened to me on both andromadus and sensewich roms, so I doubt it is rom related. I am just too lazy to return to stock and see if the problem persists...

I see that lately a lot of "screen not working" issues appeared. Could it be kernel or ICS related?
Anyone sent it in for repair and already got it back. What was fixed?

Whether I'm on froyo stock or gingerbread stock my capacitative buttons aren't working. Even parts of the screen take random inputs without my interaction. Areas which have the issue respond perfertly to my touch on the lockscreen(lockscreen always works perfectly). I'm giving my dz for service tomorrow. Let's hope. It gets fixed.

Hi,
I'm facing a similar issue ever since I rooted my device. The touch screen behaves strangely at times (becoming totally unresponsive in morning when I use it after around 6 hours of inactivity), the hardware buttons don't respond either. I keep on rebooting the devices, fixing the permissions etc. and then after some time, life comes back to the touch screen and the buttons. They also become unresponsive at random and it is very irritating when you pull your device to call someone or receive a call and then it does not respond .
Also there is a horizontal strip in the touchscreen that doesn't resister any touch (I cannot play 'Frontline Commando' due to this). Strawmetal! is your device still behaving properly after all the fixes you did? Have you reverted to ICS yet and found the phone working properly? This issue is draining all the charm of having a rooted mobile away :crying:
I do not think rooting is the problem here. My phone was rooted and my problem started only a few weeks ago after my son dropped it on the kitchen tiles... Now I reverted to GB stock and this moening I had the freeze once or twice. However, I don't need to restart the phone, power button does the trick for me. All I do is switch off and back on. And the screen and capacitive buttons are responsive again

Hi Regius,
I agree rooting may not be the problem but there are chances, though slim, the roms we are using they have some problem. In my case, I have another probable culprit: I was caught in heavy rain. Though I protected my device but I doubt that some moisture seeped in. I rooted it after that so cannot say clearly what is behind the issue. Since I saw that Strawmetal is also facing similar issue, I made a wild guess. Now I'm trying to muster enough courage to dismantle the device and reassemble it. I can also notice a small smudge inside the screen at the top-right corner (perhaps this is a proof that moisture seeped in).
Coincidentally, I used Strawmetal's directions for rooting that he has put at one place. Wonderful effort on his part.

One more issue that I forgot to mention: I cannot pull down the notification bar directly (as we did in gingerbread) but have to manage it via launcher settings. I remember this issue got corrected occasionally when I used sense based roms initially.

Well guys returning to stock seemed to work for an hour. But then it started all over again. So fearing i would lose all control of the capacitative buttons i rooted back and am using Elitemod with the on screen buttons enabled. My capacitative buttons have comepletely gone out( no amount of reboots, kernels would fix it). So 2 weeks ago i took it to a htc service center. Heads up*(I'm living in a metropolitan city). The guy there says that they are not *authorized* to open the hardware of the phone. They only look into the *software issues* which I guess is just flashing an RUU (F*** you HTC). He says they haven't received replacement parts for many phones since 3 months and he recommended me to leave my phone with him so that he could contact me when and if the parts arrive(facepalm). I quietly walked out and went to another service center where they told me the same thing, but that they would send my phone out of the country and I would have to pay $30 for the shipping whether or not my phone is fixed. Charges for repairs would be extra. So all I did was hit up ebay and ordered a digitizer for $40 on August 1st. I got shipped by the seller today. I'll be receiving it by 24th of this month.
In the meanwhile I needed a rock solid phone for my regular use and I knew that if I got an android, it would mostly remain in the recovery mode. So I got myself a Nokia E6($370). This is giving me 6 days of battery backup on heavy usage. Standby is rated at 30 days( I guess it'll give me 20).
Let's hope that I get a working digitizer from that seller and it will fix the issue on my beloved DZ.
Finally HTC go dig your own A**!!
EDIT: Before all these problems started my phone slipped from my lap and slid across the floor without taking a single scratch. This drop might have been the cause.
Hi Strawmetal,
Just one more check: install a sense based rom (4.0 would be better as they are not as heavy as 3.5) and see if the buttons respond! Just a gimmik but I realise by device responds better when one a sense rom.
And HTC is dying its death...they are closing business in some countries, shares are falling

My back cover keeps popping off near the volume button. I can push it back in but it seems like it wants to keep popping off. Only in that one area, no where else.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Mine does that. I just called sprint cause I gotfrom telesales and they are sending me replacement.i called two days after I received it they considered it damaged in arrival but the back is so flimsy and I fear it might happen again

Yeah, mine's doing that too. It's really annoying so I'm glad sprint might replace it without issue. Now I'm trying to decide if it's worth the hassle...

I am surprised that the same area is affected. I would encourage you to call and at least report it so it would get on there"known problem"list . I described it in details to the representativeand told them the phone is brand new and I have no intention to go to a store to have it checked

i had that problem but i took it off and put that section back on first. I dont remember where on the phone it was but it was bugging me. I havent had a problem since, but that was only yesterday
I remember mine did that when I first got it. Not sure what I did to stop it, maybe what the last poster did. Ive had a case on mine though.

Same issue here. Got a replacement cover from Samsung coming. If it doesn't fix the issue Sprint agreed to replace my phone. I have had mine since release day but filed a formal exchange request before the 14 day period was over explaining my situation and Samsung's proposed resolution. I suggest anyone nearing their 14 day expiration to consider doing the same. I want to avoid a replacement if possible because I already set up everything exactly the way I want it, but if the new cover does nothing the phone is going back. FYI, tried a few local Sprint stores and nobody had a phone in stock to let me test the cover swap. Went to Best Buy and although they had none left the guy said he has seen this issue in a lot of the Note 2s already. He even said the 1st gen Notes suffered from a similar manufacturing defect.

I had this issue on the opposite side. It ended up being the hook/snap. I used my car key to push down the edges around the hook and boom it works like it should. I'm not sure it that will fix everyone's but it worked for me. Also the sprint store wouldn't need a regular cover. The flip cover replaces the back so it should work as well.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
Yes. PITA too.
Think QA from Sprint and/or Samsung belongs to or reads XDA?
I have this issue too. The hook seems to have cracked..
Same thing here since day one.

i don't have the problem since i bought the samsung cover, but i believe the old touch pro 2 had that problem. to fix it we had to put a folded up piece odf paper under the case over the battery. it helped the cover keep its shape. the flexjng caused the cover to pop off. maybe it'll work for this phone too.

are you getting the cover under warranty or did you buy it?
Warranty. They're sending me a new cover free of charge and a return UPS label to give them back my old one (wonder what they're gonna do with it, lol).

I've never had that issue on my TP2, but if I recall correctly the cover on that phone wasn't nearly as flimsy and soft as the one on the Note2.
Problem SOLVED!
Guys...the back cover is very poorly designed. When I picked up my GN2 on release day at the sprint store, the girl handed me the demo model so I could see it. I noticied immediately that the back cover was loose by the volume keys. Pulled it off, saw broken hook immediately. I then insisted that I would put the back cover on myself on mine when they took it out of the box, and I never had that issue again. Unlike the GS3 which I upgraded from, which had snaps all around, this one has snaps, and also tabs on the bottom and a hook by the volume keys, which means if you put it on the same way as an S3, YOU WILL BREAK THE HOOKS/TABS! You can't just push it on. Not the users fault, as Samsung made this both extremely difficult to do, and provided no clear instructions on installation/removal. I use multiple batteries and therefore remove it about once per day, and I've had the phone since release day. Unfortunately, without redesigning the actual phone housing itself, I fear it will be impossible for Samsung to fix this by just redesigning the cover. If yours isn't broken yet, just follow my video on proper installation and removal of the back cover. If yours already broke, grab an in-warranty replacement from Samsung and follow my instructions from now on, otherwise this will keep happening. Below is a link to a quick how-to video I made.

Nice video, will try that method when my cover gets here.

Dear All,
Lately I'm experiencing a strange issue with my mobile. The S-Pen just stopped working. I thought at the beginning that the S-Pend is defected, but after trying it in a different Note 2 devices it worked fine. Now, the problem is in the screen, it does not recognize this Spend and neither other pens I tried on it. I have a screen protector, but the S-Pen was working fine on it before. What do you this is the reason behind this strange action??
Thanks a lot
try a hard reset.
Does the phone still detect when the s pen is taken out of/placed into the phone?
If not, it could be an issue of that coupled with s-pen battery saving being enabled.

Excellent question! Try rebooting your device. If no go there back up your needed things and factory reset/restore the device. If that fails and you are on a custom rom go back to stock and test.
Thanks a lot .. I was on an original ROM with Root enabled. I did a factory rest multiple times. i even installed the CM10.1 ROM to test it but with no luck!
And the phone recognize that the pen is pulled out when I pull out the S-Pen ..
What is meant by Hard Reset??
Thanks a ton for your support and for the fast response.
Might sound basic, but are u using magnets around it? My pen doesnt work when i have the case on, because it has a magnet on it. It may be that. Try it without the case on.
Hard reset = losing ALL of your internal storage (game data, etc), and starting afresh, like you did when u first took it out of the box. Sometimes called a factory restore/reset.
Thanks a lot for the follow up. Yes I had a case with magnet. I now removed this magnet from the case. I'm now without the magnet for almost 5 days with no luck. Does the magnet may corrupt the screen?
Its tym for you to unroot and take it to service center .
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Hmmmm... I'm not an expert, but I'm quite sure that magnets don't 'corrupt ' or permanently damage the screen. As above, by aukhan, service center, I think.

I'm not going to let my galaxy note 8.0 be with a defect because a part of the screen cannot be detected by the s-pen. After reading this thread I noticed that the part of the screen that does not work with the s-pen is where the magnet is on my case. After I removed the case, the s-pen worked perfectly.
Thanks to this thread it has spared me from lining up at the Samsung service center though I'm now off to get me a new case.

Hey everyone,
All of a sudden this afternoon I was struggling to respond via Facebook messenger and pull down the notification shade and then all of a sudden the phone was doing whatever it wanted selecting things on its own and generally ignoring my commands.
I did a factory reset but the issues remain and after doing a restore via a kdz file it seems that again the issues remain.
It seems like I can use the touch screen but everything requires me to hold the on screen selection down for a few seconds to get it to respond...
It's been working fine up to this point and I don't have a clue what's gone wrong...

If I press rapidly on buttons on the screen it will respond first time to app icons etc, for example if i rapidly press on the back button and then press on the app icons with another finger it works straight away.
Otherwise I have to hold on a button for a couple of seconds before the touch registers...

How long have you had the phone? What carrier? I would think you could contact the seller and let them know you need a replacement unit. You might even be able to bring it back to the carrier store if its branded by one of the US carriers.

Checked my phone after leaving it over night and its still not working although part of the touch screen seems more responsive now it's still definitely got issues.
Call Amazon support, explain the problem. They should send you a replacement for you to get tomorrow morning even before you sent yours to them. Happened to me in the past in the UK (with my Galaxy S3), I was impressed by their customer support. They even asked me if I wanted a refund or a replacement, and it was 8 or 9 months after I had bought it!
Please help: different strange behavior
Today while I was on the google now screen my phone stopped what it was doing, vibrated, and took 4-5 photos with the flash (at 11:45am). This same behavior happened yesterday also, though I'm not sure what time.
My phone is still unrooted, running the google now launcher (installed from a downloaded apk, but updated from play store) and all other apps directly from play store. I didn't have any apps running that had access to the camera, so I am nervous that something is wrong with the phone.
Anyone else seeing similar behavior? Thanks!!!

Hi guys!
I have a F180L (converted on a E975), my phone never fell from any distance, or had any kind of impact, BUT...Since I updated to last version o Carbom ROM, I've got a issue on my screen...
There are random touches on my down-left corner of the screen. It's completely random, while the charger is plugged, or not. But it only happens when an app is opened, while in homescreen (even on google now cards) everything is ok...
I've already flashed another rom, the AOKP Android L release 11, the problem still here...I installed a screen tester app, and this corner is not recognizing when I touch.
What can I do? Is there any kind of fix for it?
It's really annoying (mainly while typing)...
Thank you for any help!
I guess its time for a replacement.
Made some research on other forums and found some people with the same problem, but on other devices...On Nexus 4 and Xioami (mostly)...They solved this by replacing the battery...I'll try to do that this week...
But any other tip about can help...
it might be a kernel issue
if u have jolla kernel try changing the kernel first
I have also the ghost touching on my E975.
Tried to do a scan with antivirus with no luck.
For instance it's hard to dial number, because there are ghost touches often.
It's like on tihs video, but I have touches even more often:

I'm on stock KitKat 4.4.2 ROM.
Any ideas about the issue?

It's relatively common issue, hope it will not appear again...
Sorry to resurrect this thread but I seem to have a problem with my screen, not with the ghostly touches but my screen has like one part of it not responsive to touches especially the keyboard. While typing in portrait mode I can't type in the letters x and d and the whole line of the screen above those letters can't respond to my touches. The others are OK though. Anyone else having the same problem or is it just me? Already flashed different ROMs but same problem
So...I didn't manage to get a new battery to perform a test yet...Maybe I'll do that until the end of this week, and post the results here...
About the kernel...Mine is "3.4.0 [email protected]" ...
Going to update to new Kevin's L ROM and see what will happen...Hope I can help u, guys...
I had the same problem as well, unfortunately my phone was just out of the warranty period so I couldn't get a repair or replacement. I tried everything to do with the software and firmware at first to see if that was the issue(no luck). I noticed when my phone was either hot from heavy usage or charging, it was at its worst..couldn't even put my lock pattern in without it spazzing out. After almost throwing my phone at a wall numerous times I decided to get a new digitizer (easily bought online at reasonable prices). Watched a tutorial on Youtube and replaced it successfully and haven't had a problem since.

Yeah no problem and thats unlucky. I've got the Korean variant and wasn't ready to wait weeks to get my new digitizer either from Asia. I managed to find a european version that arrived next day and included front housing aswell (although modifications were needed a bit for the internals to fit). Yeah the Moto G look great but it seems to be more of a downgrade from your current handset right?

Where did you get the eu one? My screen has been like that for a long while, I have learned to live with it, but would love to change it.
thanks

I live in the UK I managed to find one here on ebay. I know you can get some from Italy , Spain and I'm positive there some in US aswell. Search "E975 housing or digitizer" depending on what your after. Do be careful as some replacements screens lack the LG logo or a bad quality. Im would give direct link but im not sure about the forum rules on that are. If your still unsure do PM me your country and I'll PM you back an appropriate link.
Hope I helped.
