It's not software's problem, it's more hardware problem, exactlier touch screen problem, for this kind problem we can't do anything, just to send phone to repairing service, and to hope , problem will'not repeat, but from my expirience, just after 10-15 days of using, touch screen start to not responding, i scarried all htc diamonds after some period, became same, and i think this is generally problem of htc diamond 1st generation, maybe for htc diamond 2 , htc company solved this "strange" and big problem, cause this situation means, give money for nothing and problems!
Giving 2 years warranty is ****, if phone will start 3rd year of using with same problem, maybe is better to give 5 years of warrant , cause this problem
I don't know if you've fixed this but i had this very problem and it turned out if you wiped the screen over once then it would be okay.. strange i know but theres quick fix that worked for me.
I had the same problem, I send it to service and tey changed the display
I've same problem, the screen only works well when phone is cold, after warms up it shows the same sintoms
Got the same problem here - when the phone is cold its 99% ok, when it gets warm (or even hot due CPU heavy to flash websites), it starts with this touch screen "dance" (and empties the battery in maybe 2 hours by not going into sleep mode).
But I found out that somehow giving the lower screen border a "massage" does help. I guess there is some screen to board connection behind, which does not get 100% contact when the device is warm/hot.
last tuesday diamond came back from service with new screen....today the same problem

Well i tried to make some pressure but same problem. I can disassemble the phone and see if something is not in place, and also use some contact spray to improve connection. Did someone try something like that?
i had the same problem as you due to water damage from using it after a shower. sent it off for warranty and they sent me a refurbished one. sending it off again because it had bad whites and a dodgy centre button.
to bypass the screen alignment screen create a file called "welcome.not" and put it in the root directory of the phone. not in the internal storage, you must put it in the device storage.

Hi all.I bought my galaxy note almost 2 months back.This is my first android phone.I have used iPhone 4 before buying this beast.I must say its awesome.However lately i have started experiencing a little problem.I have noticed that at times while typing my note's screen( Right hand corner) became unresponsive. I had to press the screen a lot of times to actually type a single letter( it was the GO button actually.) After struggling with it for 5-6 minutes it started working fine.After a few days i experienced the same problem again.I took my handset to the service center but the screen was working fine then.
I face this problem sometimes . i noticed that after locking the screen and then unlocking it solves the problem for that moment.Is this a software problem or hardware.
I wasn't able to convince the service person that my device has the problem.How can i make him convince and get the handset replaced.
Any help would be Highly appreciated. (The problem area is actually the place on screen where application icon is situated.)
Is the problem there only when you charge it? Because, there are known issues with many smartphones where that is the case. If it is, then I am right there with you, and trying different chargers I heard will alleviate the issue.
No the problem is not when i charge the device.I face this problem very rarely but not when charging.I would like to mention that the charger provided with the device was very slightly bend on the charging end as if it was forcefully inserted in some device.Though it charges the device without any problem.
Sorry, don't know what else to say. Good luck though.
I have had the problem with the bottom right corner becoming unresponsive to screen taps .This usually happens when the phone is not in my hand but is lying on a soft surface such as a pillow. However the minute I pick it up in my hands, the problem goes away. Strange. I had my note replaced under warranty, only to find the problem re occur on the replacement phone after a few days.

I'm having the exact same problem and thinking of taking it back to the service point. However, could it be rom related?
I'm running LA4. GOing back to a backup of KK5 alleviates the problem.
Something else I've noticed is that when left on a surface the application
button rarely responds but as soon as I touch it on the sides it works and when Ialso plug the usb cable it also works flawlessly.
A friend of mine has the same issue, but it only occurs if the device is laying flat on a table which is odd, he plans to have yet another screen replacement but will probably wait a few months due to shoddy quality control.
I had this issue since the 1st day. It became worst during charging. Have tried every old and new rom with no luck. I though it was a screen issue where I even applied much pressure to the affected area hoping it would help but no luck.
But the issue went away after I flashed Abyss kernel 3.9 via cwm. Now the right bottom corner is as sensitive as the left bottom corner. You might wanna try a different kernel 1st before sending to the service center...
If I remember correctly one HTC phone had similar problem, screen was unresponsive when lying on table but as soon as u pick it up it worked fine. It had something to do with screen/digitizer not being grounded properly.

I got my handset replaced last Saturday, but i am facing the same problem with the new handset.Are you sure that by changing the kernel the problem will be solved.If yes then how can i change the kernel of the handset ?

Definitely a hardware problem because when I took it to Samsung service centre, the first thing they did was to flash the phone firmware. Only when the problem persisted, a replacement was given.

shot in the dark here, do you have a case on your note? I was going nuts on the first few days with my note using a flip style case only to find the damn magnet was causing the touch response issues. Took the case off and haven't seen the problem since.
After further testing it seems in my case at least it was definitely a kernel issue with cf-root kernel la4. Replaced it with a different one and problem solved.
Same problem here, put it down and bottom right corner doesn't respond, pick it up, responds instantly like rest of screen. I thought I had some kind of insecure Note that needed to be held or something. Last few days it was really freakin me out to the point I was purposely putting it down and then pressing and pressing and pressing the back button...nothing...pick it up...works with one slight touch, I was like WTF? What the hell could cause that???
Somewhat relieved to see I'm not the only one with a clingy Note. I'm going to wait and hope ICS fixes the issue, if not I'll guess I'll have to learn how to flash.
Right-hand corner of death
Thank goodness I'm not the only one in the world with this problem.
I first observed the problem when i upgraded to LA1. I was loving the improved battery life like a puppy until i noticed the bottom right part of the touch screen was as dead when placed on a flat surface. It started working again after I had picked it up, making me wonder if it had a "Hey I'm being hand held" feature, but it would still trip out when i'd type an SMS or email.
Called the Samsung service center to ask about it. they said they've never heard of such a problem and that I should just bring the phone in for software downgrading since my Note was ok till I upgraded it. For them, it was a firmware problem so replacing it was not on their priority list.
I ended up downgrading myself to KJ3 (using odin) which works fine. Unfortunately, i no longer enjoy the improved battery life or one-handed keyboard config.
No choice now but wait for ICS and hope it works flawlessly.

This is definitely a problem with screen. I got mine replaced an hour ago and did the LCD test. The new one is working perfectly fine (with and without flip case).
Try the LCD test . *#0*#.If the test fails get the hand set replaced.

Outsyder,
What software version are you using?
Tried the screen test and mine works flawlessly on KJ3. Since I'm from southeast Asia, I don't have any other updates available except for LA1 which is buggy on my Note.
I only discovered the touchscreen issue yesterday doing the test of the other thread. So, i would like to every z1 owner to answer this pool to know how bad things are and if we can try to find a solution, since i think Sony won't.
So, please answer the poll and post any useful information. I'll start.
My phone model is C6943, I currently don't use case and I'm using a screen protection. I can do the xperia touchscreen test without touching the phone body without problem and also doesn't have problem with pattern password.

Pool? I think you mean "poll"
My 6902 is completely screwed. At first I used a screen protector and the problem wasn't too bad. Then I removed it when I took the phone in to get another issue fixed and soon after that the problem got very bad. I was traveling so couldn't go back to the service center. Now it's a bit better, randomly works and randomly doesn't. When I was home in cold weather though it seemed a lot worse than it is now that I'm back in India where it's warm. Not sure if temperature is a factor, or could be conscience. But a few weeks ago it was so bad you couldn't type even a two letter word using Swype.
Also, I now have a part of my screen in the form of a horizontal line where touch doesn't work at all. No single touch and no drag. Completely dead. Taking it to the service center soon.
You should vote on the first option, then

It's not.
I got problem unlocking with patterns, scrolling pages and when I play some games after few minutes it stop working so I voted the first option. My phone is back to Sony, I hope they know what to do and at last it's Made in China.
Please, post if you use case and screen protections too. This could help understanding the problem.
Additional data : Z1 is being handled in a leather case, back and screen protector removed ( not the one with the logo, the plastic ones that makes your camera blurry )
Touchscreen problem seen in the game Alien Shooter, after some playing, the touch screen becomes less and less responsive ( i tap a button to shoot and use some onscreen joystick to move ) - both become unresponsive/less responsive as you play and the phone gathers some heat ( you can feel the touchscreen becoming hotter )
i have a simple tpu case, i had a bit of problem when playing all touch-based games (not ones with gyro like asphalt).
ever since i got the case it's better, i have the ASF and nillkin matte screen protector

I did not use any case just a chip screen protector. Anyway on a good healthy touch screen the screen protector should not influence the touch screen respond.
Hey guys, I have also this touchscreen issue, and I would appreciate if you give a feedback about warranty service, if sony accepted the problem and replaced a touchpanel or not, and also if the replaced touchscreen is better or not. I´m also thinking about sending it back for warranty repair.
I have also found that my phones touch screen is temperature sensitive, when it get cold or warm it just refuses to detect touch actions. Try it yourself put the phone into cold/hot water for 5 second, take it out, quickly clean the display from water and test the touchscreen. I first tought this behavior is normal and I didn´t cared until I started to play games. After 15minutes of playing the touchscreen bug every time appears. But also after a while its randomly disappears. So this thing is strange. (the bug appears identically also when I have my phone in a plastic case)

Same here. I sent my phone back last week to the store where I bought it 2 months ago. They will send the phone to Sony Center but the time for repair or replace the device will not be 2 or 3 days but from 2 weeks to no eta. When the phone will come back to the store they will send the phone to me. I will post if the problem persist or not.
The problem is if they return a phone with the same problem.

They should be aware about this issue even on the new device so at this time they probably will check that but if they return a phone with the same problem, I will send it back again like many did. Someone had to replace the phone 3 times and I will do the same.
IYeah, you will be a long time without your phone though. I think I'll wait a bit since i rarely get the error and actually only when i try to reproduce it. How bad was yours?

I was able to reproduce the problem in many ways, Touch Screen Test, Opening the phone with Patterns, Scrolling Pages or with Launcher instead of switch the page it was opening the applications and at last when I was gaming at one point the touch stopped working and I had to wait, so this made my mind to send it back. On daily use was all ok but in some circumstances was frustrating.
i had the problem with cm11. and when I retored to stock then the problem was gone:S
I'm on stock and I got the problem.
Today for the first time I got the problem when writing on handrite. So I thought about using my phone warranty to get anotehr one. But it don't always fails when i do the method to reproduce it. So, how do you test if your new phone is working and how do you prove that it isn't? I mean what if i take the phone to warranty and it works?
And for you who already changed phone, it is working?

Hello guys, so I recently received an MI5 I ordered on Gearbest, in the 64gb international version (MIUI Global 8.2.2.0).
From day one, the touchscreen had the bad habit of going unresponsive randomly, meaning i have to struggle to swipe/click. Using hard keys (home, power) somehow fixes the issue for a few minutes but that's all. I unlocked the bootloader with Mi Unlock, and tried the latest build of LineageOS, and even flashed next the latest MIUI international developper build (29/06). On all of these 3 ROMs, the issue persists (and I went full wipe each time).
At the phone start, it is generally OK for a bunch of minutes, and then randomly becomes unresponsive.
I searched on the internet and did not find fixes, and i'm still unsure whether it's software or hardware related, even though I fear its the second option.
Would any of you have any more information on this subject?
To rule out any possible software issues, I'd flash the latest stable ROM.
Give that a shot and then see if the problem persists.
Well, the phone came new with the latest MIUI Global ROM (8.2.2.0), and since first start the problem was here. In the beginning I thought that it was just the phone lagging while setting up, but as time passed it was still there, no matter which ROM I flashed.
So, is there a potential software fix, or is this an hardware issue?
I am having the same issue, i hope its not hardware related :/

Unfortunately, I'm starting to think it is, considering what I found on the internet. I'm kinda deceived by Xiaomi, which I thought was great value for the price. There is not even an official statement about this, even though many users reported the issue.

Sadly thats the problem with Chinese phones,some of us that will face this problem's have no protection,we cant return the phone and get a new one,its better for us just to buy a new screen off aliexpress for 20euros than to wait 2 month's to ship it back and wait for it to be fixed and then returned and you pay the shipping costs and also the repair costs,but thats the risk we accept when we want the best bang for the buck.
Also poor quality control on the products to cut the costs is the real reason behind the problems we face
Had the same problem, it got fixed in the latest developer 7.6.29.

Hi, I indeed tried this solution, even thought it worked for a few hours.. But it came back soon enough
Guys,hello! I have a good news for you,i hope so. Ok. 1st of all I defeated the error with the screen off.
Here is my story.
I just wanted a black mi5. After some time found on ebay. I bought it, he arrived, after two days the touchscreen stopped working absolutely randomly.
The seller said that everything will do. I sent, he did nothing! Sent me. It all happened twice. Exactly twice I sent my mi5 from Russia to China! I read all the messages and tried everything. Nothing helped.
That's what I tried and that does not exactly work.
1. It does not depend on the version of miui or linegeOS.
2.This does not depend on time.
3.This does not depend on temperature.
I experimented, heated it, lay in the refrigerator. I clicked on the screen / body.
In the end, I understood the reason-static electricity.
HOW TO FIX IT!
1.Remove the back cover.
2. Twist the screws in the center and bottom, possibly a pair on the right side.
3. Try so far without the lid closed.
4.If the screen stops responding, try unscrewing the other screws.
5.Repeat, until you find the right combination and the touchscreen will work constantly.
Guys, I really helped it.
I hope this also solves your problem with the screen. Good luck!

Hey guys, thanks to Griha3212 I found out on my Mi 5 it's the screw in the top middle part of the phone, the one with warranty sticker. Just loosen it a bit. It works fine after I loosen it. Tried tightening it too and the problem came back.

Hi Guys, I hope my solution helps to solve your problem. It is definitely about the screws. For me, I have found out that one screw is very slightly thinner than the others (of course the one with warranty stick should go to the centre and there is one silver metal going top left). This thinner screw should go up middle. That worked for me.
Does the screws trick work on your phone? Plz tell me.

I hope this also solves your problem with the screen. Good luck!

Thank you, you saved my Gemini :good:
Doesn't work for me. I tried with all screws.

screw solution works !!
I tried this solution with Redmi 2 and its the exact same screw which is the problem ie the screw right in the middle of the phone.
i loosed it slightly and now no more screen freezes. :good:
Hi I'm attaching an image with the screws numbered.

Guys,hello! I have a good news for you,i hope so. Ok. 1st of all I defeated the error with the screen off.
Here is my story.
I just wanted a black mi5. After some time found on ebay. I bought it, he arrived, after two days the touchscreen stopped working absolutely randomly.
The seller said that everything will do. I sent, he did nothing! Sent me. It all happened twice. Exactly twice I sent my mi5 from Russia to China! I read all the messages and tried everything. Nothing helped.
That's what I tried and that does not exactly work.
1. It does not depend on the version of miui or linegeOS.
2.This does not depend on time.
3.This does not depend on temperature.
I experimented, heated it, lay in the refrigerator. I clicked on the screen / body.
In the end, I understood the reason-static electricity.
HOW TO FIX IT!
1.Remove the back cover.
2. Twist the screws in the center and bottom, possibly a pair on the right side.
3. Try so far without the lid closed.
4.If the screen stops responding, try unscrewing the other screws.
5.Repeat, until you find the right combination and the touchscreen will work constantly.

It would be nice if you post which numbers have you tried.

Hey guys, thanks to Griha3212 I found out on my Mi 5 it's the screw in the top middle part of the phone, the one with warranty sticker. Just loosen it a bit. It works fine after I loosen it. Tried tightening it too and the problem came back.

Did you mean that, when loosen it, the problem dissapears immediately without rebooting? Because I've tried it and it does not work immediately.

Hi Guys, I hope my solution helps to solve your problem. It is definitely about the screws. For me, I have found out that one screw is very slightly thinner than the others (of course the one with warranty stick should go to the centre and there is one silver metal going top left). This thinner screw should go up middle. That worked for me.

I think your explaination is a little bit confusing. Did you mean that the thinner screw (the number 1 on the image attached) has to be swapped with the number 2? Or with the one with the warranty (number 5)?
Please if any other one found a combination that works, post it using the numbers of my attachment as reference. I have been tried several combinations amd no one seem to work.
Hey guys
I have a very strange problem with my Huawei P10
About 2 weeks ago, I noticed that two purple horizontal stripes are appearing in a 3-4sec sequence
Normally, I would immediately ask for a repair, but there's a thing which persecutes me: it only happens when I don't touch the screen for longer than 3-4sec
When there's a continuous contact with the screen (e.g when writing a message) nothing happens, everything is fine and dandy, but whenever I leave the screen for itself for 3 or more seconds (e.g when watching a movie), the stripes start to appear every few seconds, and continue until the screen goes dark or until I touch it again, but after touching it it still takes only a few seconds for the stripes to sequentially flicker again
Here's what I've tried so far (no result):
- safe mode
- factory reset
- cache partition wiping
- cord input deep clean
What may be the reason?
Hey.
It's 100% a board or Display issue. send it for repairs. but i believe maybe you've dropped ur phone. Anyways Huawei knows better.

It's quite complicated
I once dropped it, but even after that, the previous LCD worked fine, there were no errors other than broken glass, so I guess we could exclude a board issue and lean toward your second option, as now that the LCD has been replaced, the fault occurs
What's more, I noticed that if I press the Home Key, and then put my finger in the bottom right corner and hold it, I can still use the whole LCD space without the flickering (I need to press the Home Key first so that it works after I hold my finger in the corner)
It's like the LCD needs to be in contact with your finger all the time to avoid that, which has led me to an idea: would a tempered glass solve that maybe?

I can't really answer for sure but i believe if there's a Huawei service center in your city and you try to fix ur broken huawei, your wasting your time. Whatever solution u apply on ur phone its just gonna be temporary since u hide your problem and not solved it.

I still think (or should I say believe ) that there's a solution which doesn't involve another screen replacement
As for your "temporary solution" mention, I guess if I found one, it wouldn't be temporary, since the fault doesn't progress, it's been the same for a month or so when it first occured, which gives me another reason not to replace the screen and keep looking for other possibilities
I don't need a Huawei service center, I can replace the LCD myself (didn't do that the first time though), but it still involves spending money, whereas I've been looking for unpaid solutions the whole time; getting a new LCD is an extremity

You can ask them to diagnose it and tell you about problem noone makes you pay for a lcd. And after reading your message over and over (And since i repair TVs and everything with electronics inside) i think it also can be your touch or display controller ic. Mostly it could be from touch ic since screen works fine while its in touch with something. But someone has to try your lcd or mb on a healthy one to make sure. which you can't do nothing like that. or do you?
@fengels did You bought original lcd, where can I buy it in good price?
I know this problem from older galaxy series like s5. The fix for this most of the time was disable auto brightness or higher the brightness on auto brightness. Don't know if this is the same problem, but it could be a try. Also don't know which cause this strange problem. Hope it can help you

No, it's a different problem, in the galaxy series the whole screen would flicker, whereas in my P10 it's only 2 horizontal stripes appearing in a 4-5 sec sequence whenever I leave the screen untouched for longer than 5sec
Playing around with the brightness doesn't solve that unfortunately, actually no in-device settings do, as I've tried almost every single option which is screen-related, like switching the eye comfort mode on, but still no result
The main reason why I'm still looking for an unpaid solution is that apart from this one error, the phone is like brand new, everything works fine
ok, so if I understad the problem shows up after you replaced the LCD display? So do you really think is more software related than hardware? I personally would send it to diagnose and repair.

The thing is it didn't show up immediately, I had used the phone for some time with no errors before it first occured
Also, since the new LCD was set, I haven't done any physical damage to it, I've never dropped or sunk the phone
Since you guys mostly advise me to send it, I guess that's what I will have to do

While you were replacing screen, did you turn your device off and disconnect the battery? and i think cleaning all cables coming from LCD and related sockets on motherboard can help. Use thinner or alcohol and if you wanna use thinner be careful so it wouldn't touch anything except golden contacts. Thinner is dangerous and affects ur phone color and plastic parts.

I did turn the device off, but I didn't take the battery off, since it's strongly glued to the phone's body, and I didn't want to damage it
Anyway, could not taking the battery off really be the reason?
As for cleaning, I did it by simply blowing out all the potential dirt, I'm inexperienced in thinner and alcohol cleaning

I am not sure butbon some phones it damages screen. I've seen this on laptops. But anyways its done. Open ur phone and use alcohol. put 2 drops of alcohol on each socket and flat cable connectors and brush it with a soft brush. u don't want to bent any golden contact. It's last thing u can do to fix it without paying for hardware related stuff.

Well, will definitely try it then, but what alcohol? Does it need to be something specific?
