I recently got a Samsung Galaxy S4 Active but recently it does'nt detect touch. The LCD still works but it doesnt detect touch so it's only usable when I use a USB OTG cable to connect a mouse to it. Is this a software issue or does the screen assembly need to be replaced

I had the same issue lately and the solution was to change the screen assembly. This happens if you'd have dropped the phone

If your device is I9295 then flash twrp recovery and check if touch is working else you will need to replace the screen

Hi,
so I have a huge problem regarding my HTC ONE it's touch screen and capacitive buttons
some times touch and buttons work and sometimes it's not but mostly not
when I press hardly on the bottom of the screen near the home button it response shortly then return back to not working
When it suddenly works and the touch moves smoothly the phone vibrates just like if someone presses the screen and buttons and it returns to home or keep pressing in such a mad way
I couldn't figure out if it's software problem or hardware problem
and I seek help
I think that this touch screen touch problem is mainly because of capacitive touch problem
note:
the phone did face some hard actions, it falls from my hand in the ground few days ago but there wasn't any problem at the time
I have seen problems like this caused by electrical interference (using the phone too close to medical equipment), and by chargers (electronic interference from input current that's not "clean"). In your case, I would guess it's hardware damage. Have you upgraded the OS while keeping very old firmware (drivers)?

If you upgraded officially, the driver update was included in that.

I think it's broken. If a factory reset doesn't solve this, it needs warranty service or a new digitizer (cheaper than the LCD panel, if they can be replaced separately).

If a factory reset didn't solve the problem do you think that installing custom ROM would solve the problem ?!?!?!
could I replace the touch screen only ?! or should I replace the whole LCD with touch, since the LCD doesn't really have any problem
I though of installing custom ROM and try to disable capacitive button and see if the touch problems with the screen goes off
I feel like that since when I press hardly on the right bottom of the screen solve the problem momently maybe it's an out of place lcd or touch thing since it fall from my hind before !!
Hi,
I have recently bought my tablet, in last two days my tablets acts a bit crazy, sometimes I touch a point but another point reactions
for example when i`m typing and press a word it types another word or opens notifications or even gets out of application.
How can I solve my problem?
thanks
Touch does occasionally seem to be off a bit for me as well. I keep wondering if the problem is my tempered glass screen protector and me being used to a device that has an extremely sensitive touch screen.
This can sometimes happen when using the tablet while plugged into the charger. Especially if not using the factory provided USB charging cable.

After removing the screen protector my inaccuracy issue went away. So my issue was probably different than the original poster...

it seems that it is relevant with electricity since this problem happens only when I hold it in my hand
Hey guys I have a question. I recently changed the screen on my note 4 to a new non cracked one. Now I tried the screen with the s pen before I took the phone apart so I knew it worked. Well once I got the phone all back together the s pen on the new screen doesn't work anymore. What would control the s pen in the phone hardware wise that would make it stop working? I tried all the software troubleshooting ideas other than reloading the rom. Anybody have any ideas?
Probably the s pen ribbon cable not connected properly. I had the same issue when I personally repaired my n4. Realized it after the same issues u have and had to separate the lcd from the frame to easily connect both ribbon cables the same time.
Thanks. I'll check it out.
Did you manage to fix it? I have same problem. I got mine fixed at a phone repair shop. When I remove the s pen, the air command pops out but when I touch the screen, nothing happens.

Hello all,
so my brother threw down his phone. Now it has big crack on the back and a light one on the display.
Despite this display looks ok, but only the upper half reacts to touch ...
So the idea is now to do some backups and then sent it in for repair.
The phone is stuck at the lock screen and cannot be unlocked because the number are in the lower half of the screen.
My first idea is to enable the "Glove modus" (Settings -> Display -> Enable Gloves) and maybe the display will still react to pressure touch... (?)
However how can I enable this modus, is it possible via adb and how?
Any help appreciated, cheers
PS:
The phone is rooted, btw.
Use mouse

What do you mean, exactly?
Maybe he meant to plug a mouse using an OTG cable. I haven't tried myself so i can't vouch for the method
He's right. Buy any cheap USB OTG adapter and plug any USB mouse (even wireless) to Your phone. Tested and working.
Thanks, USB OTG adapter did the trick.
Hey There, My LCD went bad so I had to replace the screen, When I replaced the screen, LCD was working but touch screen was not responding. What can be done? I've checked all the cables inside the phone and everything is connected as it should be.

It's likely your device's touch digitizer is also bad. Recheck the cable for it and see if it's connected properly, otherwise that's another part to buy.

The LCD works just fine, the digitiser doesn't work at all, Can I replace just the touch screen?
I replaced the whole frame (digitizer, lcd)
