[Q] Milestone touch screen problem???

Yesterday when i take my milestone out of my pocket I noticed that the Settings touch button(second from left) wasn't working, every other "bar" button was working fine, except that one. Then I noticed there's a vertical line, that goes from the Setting button to the top of the phone that doesn't work. It simply stopped working... Some1 Help me pliz. It' s a Software or Hardware problem, and if it's a Software problem this thing will solve my problem??

same with my phone, may be digitizer was broken

Are u using a custom Rom or the Original ? My touchscreen had a similar issue, and reflashing the ROM solved it. It took 2 flashes, but the issue is gone.
Dont know if yours is the same, but if the issue still remains, atleast it can confirmed that its a hardware issue and not a software one.

I have used CM6 on my phone, but when i got this issue, i made my phone back to 2.1. The problem is still standing.

uh oh. Looks like a Hardware issue then. U still might wanna take to the store and get it verified. Is it still under warranty ? Any possibility of an exchange ?

This may solve my problem??

Havent seen any such issues.. Thanks god..

it's similar to my problem, I had the back button through the top of the screen not working..
I have tried flashing, factory resets, and whatever I can do, but still no changed,, so I tried to ask the closest customer service and they said that it's the touchscreen panel must be thrown away to get the new one..
is it really true ?
please share this problem,,
thanks,,

Hi all!
I was having the same problem with the column of numbers 3, 6, 9 of dialpad. Looking for the solution in google, I have read that this problem is probably caused due to the moisture... so yesterday I turned of my milestone, removed the battery, SIM and SD cards and left it inside an enviromental chamber @ +70 celsius degress for 1 hour and guess what? Problem solved!
I hope that it works for anyone that are having the same problem!
Regards
Lucas

I have had good success with a combo of rice (inside a ziplock bag) to absorb humidity and/or a toaster over at the lowest bake setting.
Worked on MANY electronic devices over the years.

Same problem here. I've solved it by changing the digitizer (ebay 25 euros). Works fine now but in the mean time I change for a Desire HD... good by Milestone !
If you decide to change the digitizer, be patient, fixing th Milestone is not an user friendly task But if you take your time it's ok !

ive the same problem, and i believe that's because of moisture. because every time when its raining except the problem with right side of screen im not even able to use the phone touch screen doesn't work at all and the phone just does something by itself! this issue started with small vertical bar from right side of screen and it growing everyday now im not able to use right side of screen till home button.
i want to know do i have to replace touchscreen or i can fix it with something to absorb humidity?
thanks in advance

O2x is going crazy (starting apps, writing and scrolling on its own)

Hello,
my Optimus 2X (Speed) is going crazy. It opens apps on its own. When I try to scroll trough my contacts or my emails, the phone vibrates and does scroll on its own, and clicks randomly. So it is not possible, to use it at the moment. It seems like someone else is controlling the phone
I tried factory reset, full wipe, Modaco rom, Cyanogen Mod and Stock Rom. In all theses roms the (problem) behaviour is the same. I also tried different baseband versions.
Does anybody has the same problem or a simular?
Thank you for your help,
Hans
ps: This forum is great and i got a lot of help and knowhow just by reading passiv for 2 months.

i think your display is now wrong calibrated or damaged

Thanks for the answer.
Is it possible to re-calibrate the touchscreen?
Hans

i dont know definitly, my last phone had the same problem and it was not possible

I had the same problem when connected to hdmi. And yes when i touch the screen the wrong position is clicked. I brought to LG service center and they flashed the ROM and after that everything was much better. There's problem occasionally but most of the time it's ok. Not sure if it helps.

If the capacitive layer of the screen hasn't been damaged, then perhaps a hard reset would clear up any issues?
With the phone off, hold down Volume down + power to do a hard reset.
It'll wipe everything on the phone, but perhaps the last option barring reflashing the phone with new firmware.

use your warranty.

Thank you for your answers. I did flash different roms and did hard resets. But the problem was the same.
So I think I have to make use of the warranty.

Me and my brother got the same problem when connecting to our 19 Philips tv via hdmi, but a 40 samsung works fine. The phone is going most crazy when holding it in my hand, when I put it on a plane surface it almost stops with all the wierd behaviors, but it's damn slow. He got an original rom and I got a Modaco rom. So is it software or harware problems? The hdmi-output seems to be ok, if I pull the cable at diffrent angles nothing changes.

exactly what i experienced. My TV is 32" Toshiba. But after flashing by LG it was much better. Also, I use MOBO video player coz it's got options of turning off the whole touch screen except the 'option' button. After that the phone is ok while playing the video.

I have a friend that had a similar problem, and even after flashing everything back to stock the phone didn't seem to work properly... He returned it to warranty as it seems to be the only thing to do...

Have you tried NVFlash???

and this is hardware issue or software?
any help would be greatful.
EDIT : the same issue was experienced in lg optimus one (p500) and was fixed by a bug fix

please reply..

it happens sometimes but only when im using at launcher other than the stock....never happens with the stock....but its very rare nd it goes when i lock the screen...

Me too facing same problem.

I've other problems concerned the touchscreen or touch-wiz or else.
- Sometimes a call rings, when I slide the finger on the touchscreen to answer the call what happens is that the call stays on but the phone keep vibrating and I can't do nothing but turn the phone off. The call can't be heard.
- Also sometimes when I hang a call because the other side not answer I touch the screen but nothing happens. The call stays on. Solution: Power off the phone.
- Other times when in a call after 40 seconds the call stays on but the sound off.
I did a factory reset and at this moment I don't have any extra app instaled, to see if these problems persists,
What I need to know is if someone had this problems with this model.

I updated my friend's SGA to Villain ROM and she is facing the same issue.. Its a touch calibration problem.. Unable to use the keyboard, it keeps typing something else. I am upgrading to the Code ROM.

this issued is being faced in every 2.3 rom by me

Trying ur original stock fw if problem still persists then something wrong with ur touchscreen hardware and its calibration.
As other users r not facing this problem this is not bug.

stock rom is working fine without any problem but as I flashes european firmware this problem starts...

One of the likely causes is the CPU hitting maximum, and thus the touchscreen doesn't respond I am getting this sort of thing a lot more often.

Im also having the same problem in every rom i try.... n it really annoying when i must retype the message again n again... can someone help me? how to recalibrate the touchscreen? thanks before

Xperia Z Touchscreen troubles

Hi,
Lately i am experiencing a lot of troubles while typing a message or just unlocking my lockscreen.
The touchscreen respods bad, sometimes it starts moving out of itsselve... Its really annoying to work with the phone like that...
Someone facing the same problems?
Suggestions? Fixes?
Btw. The phone is stock, nothing changed or replaced...
The onling thing i did was removing the shaterproof film (and my Sony logo )

Try repairing it with Sony's PC Companion or Sony's Update Service first.
remember to backup your stuff before proceeding.
Do full wipes.

Did you try to shut the phone down for 30 seconds and restarting it, seems to fix many unusual android issues.
I have noticed sometimes that my phone on the odd occasion does not repsond to screen press.

I am also experiencing the same problem.
Did a factory reset but still the same problem comes occasionally.. any solution ?

I've had this problem only sometimes when charging outside...When u feel that the touch isn't working as it should,put on your earphones and look out for a low buzzing sound..if u hear anything,then unplug the charger from the wall and check in another socket..hopefully the problem in my phone was that current was leaching onto the capacitive screen so if I touch just once,it registers a number of touches..hope this helps u get rid of the problem

That may be the solution to the problem you had but this isnt the problem here , it happens when whether the phone is charging or not and I think themichelanne is having the same problem.
Power off the phone with power+ vol up - wait for 1 vibrate followed by 3 vibrates and leave the phone then wait for 30 second before powering on, solved it for me....no problem in touch till now and i hope it does not come in future.
BTW This phone is really really full of problems.

Also happens to me when using some chargers
I bought my unbranded UK Xperia Z in Expansys, since I live in Portugal they sent a extra charger for the european standard socket. I had this exact same problem with it, the screen was extremely unresponsive and unprecise while charging. Now I use the charger from my old N900 and have no issues. Also, charging from a lower volt/amperage source like a computer I have no problems.
Since the capacitive screen is very sensitive, a low quality AC-DC adapter will generate issues (possibly due to the current/voltage not being 100% stable).

The issue is still unresolved, i did a factory reset but still the touchscreen stops responding ocassionally...
Need serious help guys...

Could be a bad screen protector.
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium

me too
Im also experiencing the same problem. So annoying, especially while texting. Xperia Z's touch not proving to be how it should be.

This happens with this phone for me, and previous android phones. Usually its just the app open not responding to touch events, but my softkeys still work and I can force kill and restart whatever im doing. Sometimes I have to reset. It seems to be happening more frequently since updating to 67, but its not often enough really bother me. using a tool like romtoolbox to increase the amount of touch events android can process seems to improve it somewhat.

Have you found any solutions for this? I have been experiencing this since 4.2.2 update. I don't know what happened. Can you please explain what's wrong and what's happening? Have you got it fixed yet? My screen freezes frequently so I'm unable to use the phone.
I have been experiencing this problem since a long time. But I have found no solutions for it. I took out my screen protector and the freezing thing got to normal but still it freezes sometime, but more when the screen protector is on. I'm pretty sure this problem is caused by the screen or the android farmware. I'm downgrading my OS, please reply to this. Mine is C6602. C6603 doesn't experience any problems like that.

How I fixed my Xperia Z5 touch screen
Hi everyone,
So, my Z5 touch screen was not working at all anymore, I have tried every manipulation recommended on the internet but did not succeed to get it working that way.
Here is what I did to get it fixed eventually:
- Installed sony companion
- Launched the "fix software" program (I don't know the exact name of the program in english)
- Followed the steps (took a while, something like two hours)
Then my phone rebooted, but nothing, still the same issue. Tried taking off the sim card, rebooted and same problem. Then, I put it back in the phone, and for some reason, the touch screen decided to work again. Although, I lost a lot of data in the process, but worth it.
I don't know if it is a general fix, but on my phone it just worked that way. Although, I have noticed that my phone started overheating something like two weeks before the touch screen problem appeared, I assume those two problems are linked in some way. Still did not find any fix for the overheating problem except putting it under cool water or let it cool down for 10 minutes.
I hope I helped with my post, good luck for those who are experiencing this issue.

I9000 back button is stucked ON

After I have changed the screen (I bought one from ebay, completed with menu button in) the back button is stucked on most of the time. There are times when it's working well and times when it's stucked ON. So I can't use my phone at all. It might be a hardware problem? I tried cm 9, cm 10 and cm10.1. The same. Thinking of taking menu, back and central button from broken screen and try one more... Any solution, please?

It seems I will break another screen for removing home button.I was wrong! Any help please?

Sounds like a hardware problem, could be from replacing your screen. So you might want to go get the screen checked out by someone just to see whether there's a dodgy connecion or anything.
Until then, use LMT Launcher or Pie Controls (same thing really) if they're built into the rom (like many have) to navigate your phone. Not exactly ideal, I know, but that's one of your only options if you don't want to get the hardware checked.

Like Soryuu said, i think it is a hardware prob ...
Any chance to test it, that you can sure that it is not the changed screen ...

I bought it from ebay, it was the cheaper version... Mine was cracked. Because the back is on almost all the time, I can't really use the phone.
