[Q] Touch screen problem. - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, i've looked up about this but could not find the relevant issue as the x8.
Im using the froyobread rom and i've recently flashed the Xperia Active Launcher.
The problem with the screen occurs, it seems couldnt sense the touch. Only the 3 bottom, volume and camera buttons works. Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You should try to turn back to stock (with flashtool) and see if this problem still persists.
If it is then I guess it's a hardware problem!

Agree with above ^^ try stock rom..
My first X8 lasted 3 weeks and the touch screen died. Bottom 1/4 section of the touchscreen didnt work or acted erratic which showed up in stock test mode. Had a replacement from carrier which works fine..

1st of all thanks for the replies guys. Ive made a factory reset, wipe data and cache then flashed my backed up custom rom the one before i flashed froyobread. Its seems fine but abit out of ordinary. I'll flash the stock rom if the problem occurs again. Guess ive to find the stock rom if i need to flash it coz i think i messed up my stock rom back up. Damn i love my x8 n this happened. Thanks for the solutions guys, i appreciated it.

If you flash back to stock rom do the following key combination to bring up a service menu where you can access a touch screen test page to see if it is working properly..
Menu, Back, Back, Menu, Back, Menu, Menu, Back

Ok. Thanks terracuk. Will give it a test.

1 more thing guys... Does restoring/updating from SE Pc Companion gives me unroot? I need the warranty if i send it for repair.

You can have your warranty back if you flash the phone with flashtool..I don't think SEUS is working if you are on a Custom ROM..

Ive tried using the SE Pc Companion and it seems working. The firmware ver, kernel and build no. is back to stock. To confirm this i tried downloading Titanium back up and it cant access as the device is not rooted. Is it good to go( to the service centre)?
Thanks terracuk, ive tried the touch screen test from the service menu... And yes, it when haywired, it drew itself even im not touching the screen. [email protected]#$$%!
Guess its going to the service centre soon. Thanks for your guide bro. Thanks to u too AntwnhsAnt.

[Q] Plz Help Me

Today when i use smartflash to flah a stock firmware to my lg optimus 2x everything went fine until the phones boots when it comes to the homescreen where u must setup your phone the problem is that the screen is not responding cant do anything
plz hlp me
Have you pull the battery and start again?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
Yes and i have put all the eur stock firmware and its all the same my touch screen is no more touch
to be honest at least you are back to STOCK rom so you could send it back to the shop for warranty, if they ask what happen tell them you did a HARD RESET and nothing worked after that
Do the buttons work? power and the search etc???
did you try and flash the baseband and firmware at the same time?
Only the power and volume buttons work when the phone is on
Dont you think my digitizer is dead or anyting with the hardware?
i had this before... a reflash did the job. i actually thought my phone screen was dead. however im wasnt flashing official ones, i was on custom rom and i flash another custom rom and it worked. therefore your phone is probably fine if theres no problem before you flashed.
Can u explain me how u did flash a custom rom because i tried all stock rom from the list but no result!
tried all stock roms? opps, i guess theres always an exception. :x
what happened for me:
my phone was rooted (with cwm) and one day it wouldnt respond and i thought the screen was dead no matter how many times i rebooted. so i went home, dled another custom rom, flashed and it became alive.

...did you dip it in the water? try to go back to 4.1.2 maybe a bug in CM10.1, the only thing to do is sent it in man, sounds like a hardware problem.
Thanks for the quick reply. I think the cm 10 is fone. Was already having the problem before I flashed it. Guess it's hardware then. Will just have to send it in

[SOLVED] My Xperia t touchscreen suddenly doesn't work anymore

Yesterday I went to a party, nothing wrong with the xperia t. When I got home I let it recharge. I think it still worked at that moment. Pretty sure it did. Went to sleep. Woke up. My phone battery was empty lol. Still in the recharger. Did some stuff, let it recharge some more. Got it to boot up again. Now touch screen doesn't work anymore . Tried wiping cache, factory reset. Still not working.
I have cm-10.1.3-RC2-mint installed. I think I might have to update it. This could be the problem.
Any more tips for if it doesn't work? never had this problem before. I hope it is a software thingy.
I updated the firmware but still doesn't work. I think im gonna re-install the stock firmware, and flash a stock kernel which will unroot my mobile. Any tips? please? I can't use my phone at all atm. It just stays at the cyanogenmod install screen..

I would like to try that thing with adb, but as I have already reinstalled cyanogenmod, developer options/debugging is turned off. I can't use ADB. Unless you know another way.
So this is totally getting out of hand.. (and I don't know if that is also a english expression lol).
I tried reflashing a stock firmware. Worked, but touchscreen still doesn't work. Then I noticed, that I now don't have cwm anymore... how the f?
SO I probably forgot to exclude the kernel. So now I tried reflashing a kernel with cwm, but flashtool doesn't recognize the kernel files... I don't know what is going on..
Ah already found the problem. Got cwm back phewww..
So here is what needs to be done. I want to try gregbradleys adb shell fix but my usb debugging is off and this means that I can't use adb, as I don't have touchscreen.
So, is there any way, any way at all, to enable usb debugging without touching the screen? Maybe a kernel with that settings automaticly set?
Im getting a bit angry at my phone now.. I didn't even do anything to break it in the first place. Just tried recharging it, and that killed the touchscreen? lol. Help will be appreciated. Im out of ideas.
Get a usbotg cable and attach a usb mouse
Then use that to turn debugging on
When you flash a stock firmware you lose recovery.

thanks, I'll get one tomorrow. I hope it will help. You've helped me before so im pretty confident that you fix my problem again haha. You are a boss.
A non responsive touch screen happened to me too after I flashed a wrong firmware. I flashed back the version that was on before, but it didn't help. Only after I flashed this (pretty old) version Xperia T - 7.0.A.1.303 Generic DE with Flashtool, the touch screen started to working again. I am not sure, maybe any ftf would work. But I know that I had success with this one.
You should try gregbradleys method first though. Funny, that your touch screen stopped working, without you modifying anything. Hopefully it's not a hardware problem.

hmmm, I tried this and it worked. problem solved. I did however not have wrong firmware installed, but it was an rc2 version of cm. So it can be unstable and stuff, but this was kind of a big problem.

Hey, glad your phone is ok again. I remember when that happened to me. I just had the phone for a couple weeks. Shat my pants, thinking I wrecked it. It worked out at the end, though. Feels good to recover a bricked phone, doesn't it.
Sorry to bump

Umm I had the same problem using the leaked version.. Since I'm using the official one I haven't had the problem.
What helped for me was to power off the phone using power and volume up buttons

i tried everything i did it over from the begining with a stock 4.1 firmware from att and then root install cwm 8 wipe cache and factory reset and wipe the dalvik install rom and then update superuser right after . then reboot . when it loads it works perfect for the first few mins then something got activated and thats it the screen jus went crazy it start jumping and touching all over the place and then stop .
My Xperia T has same problem. Maybe because i took the screenprotector off and the touch screen is a bit damaged by it now?

i dont think the screen protector has anything to do with it because i would have had the same problem when im on 4.1.2 because i did remove my factory installed sony screen protector aswell. i really believe its the firmware or module or drivers .what ever it uses to control the touch
i think i might find the problem, well atlease for my device ... my usb port is acting up when ever i plug it in anything wall charger or pc is freezes and i also disable to slide to unlock and set time out to 10 mins .. idk if this works for anyone else but ive been on it for 30 mins now and nothing has gone wrong so far
I must confirm that removing the screen protector makes the screen touches working a little bit worse, because the glass gets easier oily. It's even more worse, when usb charging is connected. Cleaning the glass makes it better again.

Flash .ftf with flashtools
To recover your device from any further damage that a software may have imposed onto the hardware, I recommend you to flash an .ftf file to return back to the Stock ROM by utilizing Flashtool. To learn and understand the process to using the Flashtool Utility, head over to my Wiki and navigate to the corresponding wiki page for the Xperia SP - Flashtool Wiki Guide.

I cant, i was flashing kernels previusly, its not the same problem, because both flash and fast boot modes dont works, led just dont light up. So i think it can be mechanical problem with reset button pressed too strong and blocked/damaged phone, i used this very often so..

Then the best course of action for you is to seek help from your nearest Sony service center and get it repaired. Or alternatively, purchase a new phone
