Ever since 4.2.2, my Tmobile G1's touch Screen gets messed up at random times.
What happens is the area around the app tray and the area around the notification bar becomes unresponsive, and touching these areas either do nothing or register as a touch some where towards the centre of the screen.
This problem goes away when I press End to sleep the phone and then press menu to wake it back up and then unlock.
Any ideas?
I've Tried 4.2.3.1 and the problem still exists
this has nothing to do with the rom this happened after i dropped my phone a couple of times later fixed itself wierd but has nothing to do with the rom
edit-unless u installed it wrong....
I have not dropped the phone ever, when I revert back to 4.2.1 the screen problem doesnt happen
I've installed 4.2.2 over 4.2.1 by turning on the phone with the home button pressed, then when the loader comes up, I select update from any zip and choose the new rom...
4.2.1 has the home screen icon disappearing problem
I have run into this in the browser on 4.2.3.1 as well. Though trackball & all the menu options still worked on the touch-screen with the actual browsing I couldn't touch. The problem has only appeared in the browser for me.
This is the wrong place for this thread!
Ask these questions in Dream Q & A Folks!
am i the only one who reports out of place threads? it's just as easy as the search button WHAAAAAAA

had same issue... but was running hero... don't think its a cyanogen issue, coz it actually corrected mine..
there is a reason why there are threads for these roms. Report the bugs in the rom thread. STOP MAKING NEW THREADS FOR QUESTIONS IN DEVELOPMENT SECTION.

That doesnt always work.. i posted this exact question in the cyanogen mod thread twice within 2 days and received no answer...
I havent dropped my phone either, and this has only happened when i flashed cyanogen, and then a few themes.. now im back to regular and it happens to me in gmail, and in the browser, on the homescreen.. everywhere.. and it is random and it fixes when you sleep the phone.. crazy
Just flash 4.2.3.1 and see if you're having the same issue.

I just flashed the aosp rom that was released today on nov 2nd.. and I started having the same problem within 10 minutes after the flash.. I will try the new cyanogen rom, but I'm not sure if it will fix the issue.. will try it though
Mine has been doing it on on 4.2.3.1. It will start zooming in the browser like it is forgetting to release the bottom area of the screen from the last touch. Putting it to sleep and waking it back up fixes it. Phone is brand new as my last one went bad.
I have wiped the phone, wiped ext3, installed cyanogenmod 4.2.3.1 fresh
the problem still happens
4.2.1 doesnt have the problem
I've been trying various hero roms and a vanilla donut rom and they are also problem free
Some times the instant I put 4.2.3.1 on it starts happening, some times it happens after a few minutes or a few hours
BTW, Thankyou got moving this to Q&A, hopefully we'll get some solution
The cyanogenmod thread gets many many post and posts like these get drowned out quickly
After wiping the ext and doing factory resets it was still doing it.
I reloaded the htc image and then loaded 4.2.3.1 and it looks like it is fixed. I will update if it starts doing it again.

It worked for most of the day. Started acting up again though. I just put the screen to sleep and wake it back up to get it working again.
This is quite annoying. Tomorrow I will see if I can logcat it when it happens.
Looks like its happening on AOSP-1.6_r1.4 + ADP DRD20 aswell

Damn it ! The same thing happened 2 me.. i wiped x 3, did the htc image all over and then the latest cyanogen, and then the hard spl.. everything worked fine for about half the day then it screwed up later on. What apps do you have installed? Maybe we have one in common? I have sms backup, su file manager from "protocol X " advanced task manager with app auto end every 30 mins, and the overclock widget on my desktop with 128mhz while phone sleeps and 254 while awake, and droid swapper. Im not sure if they make a difference to the touchscreen, but i really cant seem to pinpoint the problem anyhere else at the moment

So the title says it all really... Only CM7.X series actually works correctly on my device. All other ROMs that I have tried either cause the phone to reboot itself after an undetermined time, or lock up the device and I have to pull the battery.
Sense ROMs are the worst for reliability I've found. They will reboot randomly with seemingly no reason. I've been playing with IceColdSandwich 8.0+8.1 recently and can reproduce a reboot consistently by opening maps and scrolling it.
I would be quite happy to stick with CM if the INC-S was getting CM9/10 in the future, but this doesn't seem to be happening.
So how can I stop the rebooting/freezing in all these other ROMs?

try wiping your partitions when flashing rom. there might be a corrupted system file or something

I've always fully wiped /data /cache and the dalvik cache when flashing new ROMs since I read that it's safest to do that from a ROM reliability standpoint.

try format everything else except sd card in the list
I've formatted all partitions except SDcard and am still able to reproduce the reboot by scrolling in google maps for 10-15 seconds.
I should mention that the reboots are not limited to this, it will also reboot during phone calls or other general app usage, but no where near as frequently, and it is not reproducible like the GMaps reboot.

I have cleared maps cache and downloaded a map for offline use as well, same problem is present. I have the latest Gmaps but the problem was reproducible well before this as well.
I don't think maps is the problem since it happens with old versions of maps too; but rather causes the phone to use something else, which causes the reboot.
Is there a way to see the kernel logs after a crash like on desktop linux?

Do a search mate. There's a way to get a logcat of a crash just not exactly sure how to do it

If full wipe doesn't work. then try to change your SD card. Without backup your data. Just to see if reboot occur again.
This suggestion maybe sound stupid, at least, you can give a try
Backup your SD-Card on your computer and wipe/format it afterwards (FAT32). Maybe that helps...

I have wiped all partitions (save for the SDCard) and reinstalled IceColdSandwich 8.1.1 and have currently gone over 24hrs without a reboot, even trying to force one using the GMaps scroll.

Hi, sorry for breaking in, but seems like I have a somehow similar problem with my Incredible s:
The phone starts up fine, but will run only for 1-5 minutes before spontaneously rebooting when on battery power.. This never happens when connected to PC or charger, and phone seems to stay alive "forever" in Bootloader (Revolutionary-screen), but leaving that even for Recovery does the "trick", and again it will reboot after a short while. :crying:
Doesn't matter if SD and Simm are inserted or not!
Have tried all I can think of:
Fix permissions, different roms (GingerBread (stock/ some other) and Ice Cream Sandwich (IceColdSandwich)), of course cleared and formatted all partitions, tried different Recovery's (currently Touch Recovery) and radios (S-OFF'ed to do this after problem started), even have heat-gunned soldering for battery-connectors (yes cleaned connections as well), and heated a little where charger and battery seems to "relate", and have also tried another battery with similar 4-point connection (works, but same same) so what else to do??
The problem started two days after replacing a smashed digitizer with new one (from eBay), and after a two hour car-trip with GPS and Navigate on, but no charger, in a hot front-window; the phone just exactly reached to run flat out of power, and when I recharged it shortly after arrival, the "fun" began..
It clearly looks like a battery problem, but the battery seems in perfect condition. Could it be the unoriginal (cheap) digitizer? Mind you the phone worked flawlessly for two days with that ting..(?) Or should I invest in a new battery even so (please see pic.)?
Again sorry for intruding the string, but have searched a lot without finding anything more similar, and didn't want to open a new string for this.. Maybe this one will come to live again, with a new post... :fingers-crossed:

Your problem sounds like its hardware based. I was unable to prevent the phone from rebooting and so have gone back to CyanogenMod 7.2 where the frequent reboots do not occur.

Well thanks again for a plausible suggestion, but just now tried my guess (from post here above), and sadly still no go! Didn't even let me finish Setup (after installing Gaps) before rebooting itself ..
Already had a thought about HW power management myself, but kinda fought it off, as the idea didn't become me, however that probably is the thing..
Who knows a little something about the s710e PCB, to guide me messing the right thing(s)??

There is a stable release of CM 7.2 out now on the official site. I would provide you a link but I'm not allowed to yet.
I would suggest checking the MD5 sum and full wipe before installing it. If you are still having troubles then I would look at the hardware as the problem.

Once again tanks! Found it and tried it (I always do full wipe between roms), unfortunately still same result.. But what MD5 sum am I supposed to check?? (Where, how?)

Mate, your problem is obviously hardware-related. You should go to htc service center if you want your device to run again.
Agreed.
Now and again you can get a bad download, which is why you check the MD5 sum against the orginal, but if this is happening with every ROM you use, plus the fact that you have already replaced parts on your phone with non-original hardware, leads me to the conclusion that you have a hardware defect.
Hello
i have been having in the last few months many issues with my Galaxy note - which was running the official GB and then official ICS
the phone would freeze for a short while (5 or more seconds )- does not responed when buttons are pressed in this freeze position
would suddendly from that position go into the lock screen and sometimes just restart over and over a good few times
Notification would pop up at random - saying the External SD card is safe to remove
it could last like this for a good long while (upto an hour or more sometimes )- doing it over and over again
Even when i rebooted and pulled the battery - still happens
it would do this randomally - could be couple times a day - or couple times per week -
in the end i had enough and yesterday i rooted my phone with the speedmod kernal
that was ok the root and i did a clean wipe of internal SD and re-intalled everything back onto the phone today
and again now its happening all over again
freezes / hangs / safe to unmount external SD card
RIght now - its stopped for a while - but overall phone seems pretty unstable
When i first got the phone -running official GB it seemed ok
and then more and more apps came along and i think it slowly started to happen
its happened with both GB touchwiz towards the later part before i updated to ICS stock with Apex
my phone is sadly not working as it should
would really appreciate advise

thanks for your reply
as i also wanted to check the external SD card - i did the chkdsk and no problems were found
thinking that it could be the card itself i found the link below and have now re-formatted it
http://www.simonjstuart.com/2012/07/06/format-a-64gb-microsdxc-card-for-android-using-your-pc/
says to make sure its formatted with 32kb clusters -
so i am now putting all the data back on and will see how it goes
if anyone else has any other suggestion please let me know
thanks
i have the same problem you have
i did every thing i could but no use
and iam still looking for an answer
what happend to you did you find any thing ?

so i have tried another external SD card in the note
and pretty similar things happened all over again
which makes me to now believe that its an issue with the note itself
its happened to me using official stock GB and ICS and also rooted version
2 different SD cards tested - 64gb and 32GB
i am now reverting back my devise to stock kernal and reset the binary
then off it goes to the repair :crying:
I had a similar problem, but without the SD card issues. It would freeze/hang for varying amounts of time. Sometime just a few seconds, sometime more. I got a app monitor widget and whenever it would hang up, I tried to check the monitor. Screenshots below...i hope.
AT & T replaced the phone last week, and no similar problems thus far.

Okay, since I've got the phone, it's been working without a problem.
Until yesterday...........
First off, I tried making a picture of a 'small' spider I saw in my living room:
I wanted to try night scene mode, but for some reason I couldn't change the scenes, the 3 dots to select a specific scene was grayed out for some reason.
First I thought that I might have disabled an ap or something that prevented me from using manual mode, so I enabled some things that I previously disabled . it didn't work.
So the next thing i did was clear the data from the camera ap and extensions. That didn't work either. (After each step I restarted my phone, just to make sure that the changes were applied)
I tried using background de-focus, just to see what it would do, after making a picture though the camera kept showing the saving animation and it never stopped, pictures I made after that weren't saved at all...
A few minutes later I could suddenly access manual mode and all the scenes again, taking (or saving) pictures was still laggy/not working tho.
I ignored the issue....
I also use the phone as my alarm, to wake up early from work....
But guess WHAT! This morning my alarm didn't went off and I overslept and my battery suddenly had 50% remaining, when I went to bed 6h earlier, it was on 93%. My clock ap crashed and that's the reason why my alarm didn't went off.
I rebooted the phone and tried accessing my alarms again, but I couldn't get to my alarms, since my clock ap kept crashing....
I had no time to look at the issue, since I barely had time to prepare for work, normally I drove to work with some music from my phone, but even Walkman refused to play anything........
I decided to do a factory reset, since I wouldn't lose a lot of stuff, but used ultra stamina mode to preserve some of the battery while I was at work, since my battery was still depleting really fast! When I switched back from Ultra Stamina to normal mode, the issue seemed to be fixed, so i did no factory reset in the end.
This issue is really weird, but the weirder thing is that THE SAME EXACT THING! Happened on my Xperia Z after a year or something (Only on a stock Rom though)
Is there anyone that even read my entire story (that i just typed) And is there anyone that had the same issue as me? Because it's really annoying me!!
Here are some screenshots:
Some help would be very appreciated!
(CPU Z Showed Processor 3 almost on a constant 2.2GHz)
3 or 4 days ago I had similar issue with my z3c, same with my sg2 year ago. with sg2 problem was with broken audio file (.mp3) on my card that makes device to constantly scan my sd card and not to sleep so that time I checked all my music with audiotester app, found some broken ones and repair them with MP3diags. Issue was solved and never happened again. hope that will help

So I rebooted the phone and suddenly it started acting up again. I did what you advised and it did seem to get rid of the problem. :good:
Now I need to wait for @damned91 to link the programs and see if it will help.
MP3 diags
Audiotester is standalone exe file program, just open it and drag&drop music folders there. won`t take much time
First of all use Audiotester because it works MUCH faster, then MP3 diags to repair.

I'm down to about 100 broken files now, all of them with sync problems, try to re-download those.
Many of these files I've had since 2006 if not earlier.

Hahaha you could say that again! It wasn't that bad tho. I had to re-download about 100-150 files, the rest I was able to fix with MP3 diags.
Now I hope that the problem will be solved. :good::good:
I got a note 9 originally sprint. Flashed tmobile u1 pie. Everything works fine except for two things. One of them is no edge screen notifications which isnt a big deal dont really need it. But the other is google maps. It keep loosing gps location when i put phone to sleep(app running in background). Yes location is on, wiped cache on app, downloaded newest version of maps even tried older version but still not working. Went to settings to make sure location permision is on and still not working. If anybody can fix this i would appreciate it. The last thing i can think of doing is factory reset. Wanna avoid that for now unless i dont find a workaround.

Make sure the first option is the same as attached. Mine wasn't, and GPS would lose connection if I turned the screen off.

Ended up doing a factory reset was a pain having to get my stuff just the way i wanted but now maps works fine. Thanks.
thers an unwritten rule in IT that should be applied to phones as well.if you ask me its just common sense too;
you dont update to major OS revisions. You should always start fresh.
Down the line, much less headaches and wasted time figuring out what happened when weird crap happens.

not sure if data is actually fully wiped. one thing for sure, doing it manually wiping cache and data in recovery is a sure bet.
anyways glad you got it working
If anyone else runs into this issue phone could be going into idle/sleep mode. Always turn off battery optimization setting if you do not want app put to sleep after a period of screen being turned off. Phone is set to "learn" or GUESS when apps are not needed to be kept awake alive. Settings look like this...
Certain settings give your phone the urge to guess what you need & want or don't need or want running at any given time based on your use, Long story not as smart as it sounds. It just makes or has a hunch based upon recording things like location, speed of100% predicta travel, sleeping, and any other stats it feels like monitoring. No human phone usage is predictable and same routine to the millisecond, People vary, this is where it becomes a hastle so I choose all the apps I don't need to run constantly or receive updates/notis from & I put them under always sleeping section. It was an interesting selling point but really needs work, or just bigger batteries & better power saving features that do not "guess" or make "assumptions" about our usage habits.
Hy guys, i want to ask. But first I want to let you know that this is not my phone, I use this phone only temporarily, but I am here and asking because there is something that makes me (sometimes) feel very very upset and frustrated.
This is my brother's phone, and he also asked me to help him in fixing the problem I was about to ask...
The problem is: Automatic freezes and reboots
That simple isn't it? But the impact is big, during that phase I can only use this phone for only a few minutes because my phone keeps freezes and auto reboots, basically during that phase, I can't do anything, all I can do is wait until it returns to normal or turn off my phone for a few minutes which is obviously quite long, more than 10 minutes going like that (freezes and auto reboots). Version number 52.1.A xxxxx (I forgot, there are clearly 3 numbers at the end), I tried to downgrade to version number 52.1.A.3.92 but it didn't change anything.

oh yeah, the trigger is a change in everything related to connectivity (WiFi, bluetooth, gps, sim card, etc), even when activating auto-rotate. Hard reset, flashing, downgrade, reset connectivity, nothing helps. Can anyone provide a solution? can downgrading the android version or using a custom rom help? is this just a software bug or a hardware problem?
thank you

I'm also having the same problem. Is there any solution?
I have same problem
My xz3 is so01l
I guess ta broken
Who can help fix?
hey i have had this problem for months now. Recently I flashed to a custom version (originally on SOV39) and i rooted my device and the problem still persisted. However, I found a temporary fix without messing with the hardware.
By disabling the sensors and then rebooting. It stopped randomly restarting and I can even use the device with airplane mode turned off while having all the internet functions working.
You can find it on Developer Settings - Quick Settings Developer Tiles - Sensors Off. From there you can just toggle it off on the Quickbar menu and reboot the device. Hopefully it works for you too!
I have same reboot problem, only restarts after a min in normal mode. Works fine in flight and safe mode
I took a notice it can be the cell radio as it is off in plane mode.
I find side sense and one hand mode. Is it the things to turn off? I have the same problem, works fine in flight or safe mode. Some wrote it could be the cell radio.
I have checked for the updated version of Android System Webview as another wrote in another thread it could be that by going to Apps and Storage - Play Store. But it is not on my phone so that can't be the problem for me. I have turned off 2 sensors, side and one hand mode but it restarts after a halv min in normal mode.

I tried the same solution (update system webview) and didn´t work for me, I´m currently performing a software repair to see if it helps, the thing is that my phone doesn´t reboot as often but still it´s upseting me.
I was able to partially solve my problem with my phone, I took out the black antenna frame and very carefully placed transparent scotch tape (because it´s thinner than medical tape) in all the contacts that are marked in red in the atached picture but now I´m thinking that I shouls have placed tape also on the places marked with green.
So what change I experienced on my phone with this method?
well the phone now has Network and wifi signal all the time and very ocassionaly it does lose the network and wifi signal for a second but when this happen the phone does not say that there is no sim card and does not freeze and restart, it just recovers signal by itself and I can continue using the phone.
