Touch screen not responding sometimes

Hi ppl. I recently encountered this problem and Hv searched a lot but couldn't find a proper solution.
I pulled my Ph out of my pocket and had the pocket sensor app installed back then and the phone was getting locked and unlocked but I couldn't bypass the lock screen since the touch screen wouldn't respond. I could see everything else on the notification bar working like the gprs arrows and I even got a call when this happened but couldn't pick the call up too. The only way I could get out of it was to take the battery out. Now its been happening often and I heard the emmc chip gets fried if u keep taking the battery out when the Ph is on. Anyone else facing a similar problem??
I am rooted on 2.3.5

I had major problems when I was on 2.3.3 stock unrooted.
I had a lot of crap on it so maybe that was the problem.
Are you on a custom rom? If youre not, I would probably try a gingerbread custom rom and see if it still happens.
Also if you are scared of taking the battery out, you can hold power+vol down+vol up at the same time for a few seconds, and it will reboot

Try not to use that apps. See whether the same thing happen again or not.

Have you tried a factory reset?

I had it on unrooted stock optus rom.
I would change to a more optimised rom like ARHD or something

@nonverbose
I don't think it is that big of an issue for a factory reset but it happened again today and was fine after a few mins. Would you come to know what is causing this if I sent some kind of an error log or something. If yes pl tell me what I need to send. @marcj338
Does ARHD have internet pass through? I use my office network to download big games,etc so I need the feature. Hows ARHD better than the stock anyway?

Not sure about the internet pass through because I have never tried to use it so I dont know if its there
It is much smoother, Ive played with stock 3.0 and it lags and is a bit choppy
When I used ARHD, I found it a LOT smoother than stock, it has better battery life, and it more optimised. Even with OC is lasts longer. I would have kept it, but I didn't like the look of stock 3.0 compared to runnymede ports

The reason I suggested a factory reset is because I think you're experiencing major lag spikes, possibly due to background running tasks. Does it always happen when you have this pocket sensor app activated?

@markj338
I wanted to try out ARHD for a while but was unimpressed by CM so I thought of sticking to stock but later when I checked my friends Ph and saw the difference I wanted to go for it but now I think am gonna wait for ics cos I heard it's very stable. TX for ur time though! Appreciate it ..
@nonverbose
I think it's the pocket sensor but am not sure. I try out various combinations to get outta it. Sometimes I think its the go locker but I noticed 1 thing for sure ....it happens when it's really hot outside and the battery heats up too. Am trying to give as much info as possible!!

Wow.....everytime I try to determine the problem as to why this is happening I come up with random ideas since noting used to work. Now on my way to work the same thing happened again. It is still not responding and am posting this from my office computer. I could unlock the go lock screen by the vol button which I had configured. I could see the internet pages loading up since I was browsing when it happened suddenly. The auto rotation also works and all buttons like home, menu, search are responding but it just doesnt seem to respond when I touch the screen. I googled it and found there is something called a touch input which might be and issue. I cant do anything to stop and restart the service since the touch doesnt work. Any suggestions?

Uninstall pocket sensor and go locker.

Really ...y do you think they are the problem.

Check where exactly is the proximity sensor and make sure nothing is blocking it (dirt) and/or is still exactly where it should be (if you drop a phone it might get dislocated). This would explain sudden unresponsiveness since phone might think it is in call mode (proximity sensor detects presence of your head and disables the screen while you are dialling).

I had go launcher n pocket sensor way before this started happening. I don't think that's the problem. Its something to do with the touch input but can't figure out the cause.
N yeah I remember dropping it once. My SD card is almost full since I got a lotta media n apps. Would buying a new high capacity SD card do the trick? I remember my laptop lagging due to an almost full hard disk ...

It happened again today. I received some bluetooth files and its not responding now. Menu buttons work but the touch is being a *****. It happens so randomly n it not even funny. grrrr

Incoming Call Screen Stuck

SGN N7000> Stock ICS 404, rooted, Speedmodv3-13
Sometimes When i receive an incoming call, i cannot answer it. even if i slide the answer call button or the reject call button, nothing happens,
and finally the call goes to a missed on,
I tried to change settings to answer the call with the power button, but that too behaves the same way, when pressed, cannot answer.
Happened to me since the 4.0.3 update (before rooting).
Any advice?

If you recently updated.. do a clean wipe. if it still exists, Don't use fb sync. The same problem happened in my S3 after upgrade.

Softkey Vibrate

Does anyone know what determines whether the softkeys vibrate on touch? Turning volume down to silent doesn't change anything but I've noticed that sometimes there is no vibration and I can't figure out the reason.

There is an option to turn it off in the sound settings,vibrate on touch.

But there's been many times when I've not been near any settings for a while and I notice the soft keys not vibrating.

I don't know if it's a software or hardware problem.can you try a factory reset?or repair the phone via pc companion.
Sent from my C6602 using xda premium

Firstly I'll monitor exactly what I'm doing when it next happens. I'm not rooted or unlocked yet so I guess it's nothing I've done (unless it's an app, if that's possible)

Right, so it's been almost a week. Unfortunately, I'm still having problems with no obvious explanation.
I soft-bricked my phone a few days ago so I've completely reset it. I was under the impression that it was only softkeys and haptic feedback that was being lost but today I'm sure a couple of time I've received messages without vibration (phone was in my lap and I can see the screen turn on but felt nothing).
My friend on his One X told me he often loses softkey feedback and haptics but that a message always brings it back. So until today I was putting it down to Jellybean (there seems to be a lot of S3 users with same issues too). Some S3 user reported that turning battery saving off has brought back feedback but I've not used stamina or anything like that, might there be something enabled by default I want to get rid of?
I kinda want to install CM10.1 to test on 4.2 but I'd need unlocked bootloader and I'm not sure how Amazon feel about that.
The motor seems to be ok... It sounds like a Bee or some paper trapped but from what I read that's normal because it's a thin phone. It's loud too.
When using the Service Tests area it seems to work without fail, but I need to test that after it turns off.

I'm still having this issue and I'm almost certain it must be a hardware fault.
Am I right in thinking that if I run a vibration test in the service menu then no system or app settings should prevent it vibrating?
Sometimes it fails to vibrate even in that test.

Not receiving calls on my phone, but callers still hear the buzz from their phone.

Hey all
So I rooted my LG Optimus 4X and I later unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom ROM. Not a big deal, and not very hard thanks to the great help of the devs here. So it all works great, but I have two main problems. The first is by far the biggest.
1) I can't receive calls. People call, they hear a buzz as if I'm ignoring them, but I get no ring at all. A restart hasn't fixed it, I also can't go on viber because I can't receive texts. So that's quite a big deal. I'm running CM10.1 and my carrier isn't very popular, could that be a reason?
2) The developer options are all gone, like USB debugging and forced 2D rendering. Other things I'm starting to miss are the apps like home screen autorotation and the app that lets you draw on the screen. Can't remember the name now. This one isn't so urgent though.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Try to jump back to the stock rom.If the problem is still there you have to send it to service center.
I will search on my cm10.2 ways to set carrier

[Q] Note 3 doesn't stay in MUTE mode

Hi,
I've a problem for few days:
My NOTE3 doesn't stay in MUTE or VIBRATE mode for long time.
Return in SOUND mode randomly.
I won't erase all data
What can I do ?

The first and best trouble shooting step would be a factory reset. I dont really see any other options, friend.

Are you sure you aren't hitting the volume up button? I thought I had that problem on my note 2 but it turned out to be a problem with the volume buttons on a case. Shaved them down a little and the problem went away.
