Tried searching first, sorry if already reported. I'm running the Modaco Froyo ROM, with pershoot's .34 kernel.
After about 1/2hour or so of playing any touchscreen intensive games (ie... Robo Defense and Super KO Boxing 2) the touch sensor goes completely out-of-sync. Anything from touching the screen causing a haptic feedback (as if pressing one of the softkeys) or pressing on one spot of the screen and it registers in a completely different region.
I've never had this issue pre-froyo (as has been reported by folks using 2.1).
Anyone else getting similar issues?
I've been getting this issue since 2.1, and had it for the brief period of using 2.2. Don't think it's been fixed yet. Annoying, but you can always just toggle the screen with the power button to get it back to normal.

Thanks for the workaround tip, heck of a lot better than having to reboot.
Hi guys,
My G1 has been suffering from this error for as long as i can remember and i was wondering if anyone has had the same issue. It could be a hardware problem but i am trying to exhaust all other possibilites before i get a new screen.
The problem is that when i touch the screen, it will frequently detect 2 presses and the screen will "wobble" all over the place. The only way to reset it is to press the end key to shut off the screen and then unlock again.
I have been running the phone with the pointer location always visible and this is how i am able to know that it is detecting other inputs.
Does anyone know of a way to resolve this? The only way i thought of was to replace the touch screen driver...is that possible? Or to disable multi touch so it doesnt have the ability to detect another input.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
I am running a G1 w/ CM6 RC2 and this is any issue which has been occuring since early CM roms.
Regards
When I turn the screen off and on again quickly, it flickers right after it comes back on. I'm running phiremod CM7, if anyone knows how to solve this problem, please let me know.
Thanks
mine does that too but im running nookie comb.
Successfully flashes miui latest build and all of the sudden the touch screen stopped working after the reboot. the screen displays the lockscreen the bottom leds buttons lights up but no touch input whatsoever. Any idea what could be causing this? I flashed using clockwork

Maybe just your phone is fully freeze after boot. Do a full backup, and install an other ROM, for example CM7.
Supupa could be right...the phone isn't frozen as animations and text messages still shows and the problem persist with a fresh cm7 flash also..

if you're under warranty ask for a replacement. you should get one back at no cost since there should be no signs of damage
if not. i replaced my digitizer a couple of mouths ago, its no to hard. i did post a thread in the general section which did have a few videos about replacing it. good luck
Try flashing another ROM? I don't think it's a hardware issue if the buttons light up when you touch the screen.
Hello,
My Touch screen doesn't respond to touching since an hour ago.
I see no logical reason for this fault,
My screen is guarded and nothing happend to it.
I tried to remove battery and insert it with no luck, I booted my phone into CWM touch recovery, and it also doesn't recognize touching.
update2:
The problem appeared again.
just flash a kdz to return to stock rom

The problem appeared again I tried a lot of times to remove battery&insert but it doesn't help.
Please help me.
I've just flashed my phone to stock rom,
I'm still having the same touchscreen issues - the screen won't respond to touching.
Any suggestion please?
Is it possible that the touchscreen issue is caused because of the screen protector?

Screen protector protects screen If you have got stock FW back on the phone, just bring it to your carrier and they should do it on warranty.

Thanks for the advice,
I flashed stock rom and now when I turn on my phone It shows me the "Android Welcome Screen", Is there a method how to bypass this screen without touching the screen? (If I'm taking phone to my carrier, it might seem strange to them that my phone shows the "Welcome screen" whether the touchscreen doesn't work so they could know I flash my phone and not to accept my phone's warranty)

You can try on-screen phone, which is a software by LG, but i think, that this also needs to be setup first... Otherwise, just tell them, that you did a factory reset, because your phone wasnt working properly anymore, and thats when your error occured.
I dont see another way... Maybe repair it on your own

I'm going to take my phone back to carrier
But there's very strange thing: the touchscreen rarely works.
I removed the battery for a night and when I got up in the morning and I inserted the battery and turned the device on, for a few seconds the touch worked . What does it tell about phone?
I've just received my phone from repairing, and my touch screen has been replaced.
I'm a little disappointed because I expected for getting new phone(I have a warranty). I've also noticed that the screen is a little thicker, about few mm, which is weird.
Is it right that phone with replacement touch screen won't be as smooth and good as normal one, or not necessarily?
Same problem of Freezing screen
Disappointing but i too have this very same problem with my brother's P970... any ideas how or why?
though sometimes it would respond but leaving it a few minutes would again make it freeze. The hardware buttons work but the 4 touch buttons wont. now i cannot get thru the rom manager to make it into Bootloader mode so i can install another rom...
some things i did a few days before this happened:
1. flashed CWM recovery successfully.
2. installed a lot of apps and happened to fill up the SD card.
3. installed a new ROM Gingerbread Repackaged V20N
I can still get to S/W Upgrade but all I need is the Bootloader Mode. I honestly dont think this would be a digitizer malfunction since it works well in a given time. It's like it lagggggs much and unresponsive. I cannot get past the lock screen. Any ideas or any other way to get to the B/L mode? Thanks.

ARZAKEM i have the very same problem too i was also doing the same stuff which you atempted and end up with none responsive touchscreen.
my phone is since then lives in a my draft in the kitchen and i was also curious about the malfunctionality because it worked sometimes and other times not.
I just thumbled upon the post when i search the web i know its too late to ask but could you please please tell me what you done with that phone ???
I ordered a new touchscreen from ebay and it will arrive soon but i was wondering wether you managed to fix it or not? could you please tell me what was the real problem did you replace the touchscreen or is it not the touchscreen?

You need to indicate your current ROM. Then can the issue be accessed
