i was replacing my g1 digitzer. I had the guide with me still took me 12 hours to figure out how to do it. i disassembled assembled it thousand times before the slide was properly working and touch screen was functional. Now the problem is, something is wrong i cant figure out.
When i open the keyboard the screen doesnt flip orientation. It does on its own.
When i type through keyboard the buttons change randomly and they dont respond to what i am pressing
. The music volume bar shows up it self , the sound is very very very low from the speakers.
Camera still works.
touch screen working perfectly.
The trackball, menu button, and all those on that panel are working fine.
please help me fix this thing
This not the right place for this. But might have somthing to drivers? And know this probly won't help but u should wipe ur phone if you have not all ready.
Youll have done what i did when i swapped my housing round, i missed 1 conntction that stopped my touchscreen working,,, and then i realised i put the keyboard sensor on upside down :how embarrasing smiley:
actually i damaged one of the connectors on the strip of my keyboard
everything else is working now except for few alphanumeric buttons!
Something strange happened to me today.
The unit lost power, the screen went weird, then the unit shut off.
After charging it when I got home, I wasn't able to boot it; it wouldn't even go into recovery via home & end.
I saw something online where someone suggested trying to go into recovery mode with the keyboard open.
This worked & I wiped & reflashed the SuperBad rom.
What I've come to realize is that my display isn't working at all when the keyboard is slid under the display, or shut - so to speak.
Any ideas? Might there be a 'simple fix' to this that I don't know about?
Also ..
What happens when I close the unit is that a bunch of black lines appear across the display (looking at the unit in Portrait mode).
Looking at the unit in Landscape mode, the lines appear vertically across the screen & the homescreen appears to not rotate, but stays in Portrait mode.

Everyone that I have talked to has said it is a possibility that it is the ribbon cable for the keyboard. The replacement procedure for that is a bit complex (small parts involved) but it is possible to fix. And truth be told, I could also be totally wrong. But you had said that you re-flashed it and it continues the same problem. That sounds more like a hardware issue and less like a software issue.
Hello,
I'm not really sure if anyone encountered this before..
Suddenly today in the morning, I notice my Milestone's touchscreen is acting up.
I can't reach the menu button at the bottom of the screen. It always chooses Phone or Web Browser button instead :/
I use search to get to Dev Tools and Pointer Locations, and I realize there's a segment, about 1 third of the touchscreen, in the middle, unresponsive to touch.
I tried cleaning the screen, clearing cache, rebooting, it made it work temporarily, but then it returned again. I changed to stock 2.1 SBF, still no change. And now, its stuck in this state, I can't get it to work even temporarily..
I really dont want to send it to Customer Service, is there anyway to solve this?
Thanks!

Same with me, i can't reach from menu in a bottom side to upper side, maybe 10mm dead space + 7mm right side from bottom side to upper side.
Please help me!!
Sorry my english is not good
It happen to me last 2 weeks while helping out a friend's Milestone. After i flashed a kernel, the whole screen is not working. Trying to flash back to stock ROM,custom ROM,etc but still the same.
By accident i press and hold both BACK key(the bottom left) and SEARCH key( bottom right) and ON the phone. I let go of the the two,BACK and SEARCH key after the phone is completely ON. To my surprise, it works!!! Until now the phone has no problem with the touchscreen.
I hope you guys can try this out or is it an coincidence,I don't know..

thanks but no fix it for my phone
I had the same problem sometime last year, which I eventually fixed by clearing cache partition and rebooting a bunch of times.
Unfortunately, the problem re-appeared today. So far, rebooting and clearing cache hasn't worked.
By any chance, have any of you installed the WiiMote Controller App? I was convinced that was what was doing it to my phone. (maybe not, as I never re-installed it though)
I'm about to flash the sbf file, but as Lesiroth said, that might not work
i believe u r having GHOST TOUCHSCREEN syndrome
my touchscreen sometime do not response to my touch
it just went berserk!
the notification bar keep sliding up and down
if im in the menu, it goes up and down too!
sometime i cant unlock the screen bcos it do not respon
however, some chinese users found that this could be due to ripped/ torn ribbon
just google it
it is widely reported too!
I just want to say that I have fixed my Droid's touchscreen problem (or maybe it will re-appear in another six months).
Anyway, I just set the screen brightness to max and screen timeout to 30min and let the battery drain. I took the battery out for a second and then charged the phone with the USB that came with the phone over the wall socket.
I think the USB wire is the culprit (I was using a BB one for a while).

my problem seemed to be disappeared after i soft reset n use stock rom
i tot launcher pro was the culprit but it is not
so i re-install LP n use for 1 day
d only problem i had was when i went for a jog, i tucked it on my waist (no in the pocket).
after that the screen stop working at all, i have to reboot by taking the battery a few time.
after 30 min or more, the problem was gone.
tis could be due to the stress applied to the screen when im joggin (as it it as "touched" while im jogging).
however, i removed beautiful widget n its addon too, dat could the source of the problem as well.
SOLUTION: soft reset, use stock rom / launcher for 1 day
if it still persist, it could a hardware problem

I am glad that you solved your problem. Unfortuntely the past week or so has been a really busy time for me, I could not focus on this problem. I will try your solution, although I still think it is a broken digitizer on my part.
maybe the problem is the digitizer..
try to change rom or wipe it first..
if the problem still persist i think its the digitizer..
use only the original charger..
OMFG that worked on my phone!!!

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
Recently updated to 6.0.1 on my LG Urbane watch. Everything was working fine for about a day and half. Then I noticed some sort of glitch on my touchscreen. Specifically the middle area. I turned on show touches in developer option and everytime I tried touching the middle, it shows an off touch a bit to the side.
I did a factory reset. Still the same thing happens. It is also affecting some apps. In LG Pulse, I am not even able to press the start button to monitor my heart rate, unless I press it a bunch of time in and around the play button.
I tried to reflash it through adb loader but on the bootloader or recovery screen, the touch screen stopped working. I can not pressed the selection or confirm buttons at the bottom.
Does anyone know any way to fix this? Is it a software issue or is there something wrong with the touch hardware on the watch?
Now there is another long topic on freezing, but its basically about 10seconds freeze , then things normal and stuff. Mine is different so I made a new topic.
Have sprint note. On Marshmellow now but happened on Lollipop as well.
The problem is:
After several hours of use, or may even a day, the phone just freezes....partly. Let me explain. Basically if you touch anywhere on the screen, it won't register the touch. If you hit the hard recents button, it'll show recents, but you can't click any program (it doesn't register your touch). When it first happened I thought I needed a new screen, but quickly found out I probably don't: If I hit the nav bar, it will pull down full screen, and if I have it full of notifications, I can click any of the notifications, whether its near the top, middle, or bottom, and it registers the touch and sends me to the app. But then again, at that app, the screen doesn't register. Even if I touch in the same place on the screen where I clicked the notification that sent me to the app. But the nav bar still works. It recognizes the touch, and will pull down full screen, and I can click anywhere on the screen and my touch will register. Also if I hold the power button and the reboot options come up (which on mine has option from top down to bottom, I can click any option on the screen, and it will register my touch. But if I hit the home button, the whole screen is non responsive. So I have a partial freeze. The whole screen doesn't work, but then the whole screen will work when I pull the nav bar down, so im totally confused. I already tried usually differnt launchers, but same thing, after while, screen will be non responsive
If I reboot then everything works fine and normal, so I doubt its a screen issue. Because if its broke its broke. Also tried a hard reset,problem still came back. I guess it may be an app clashing problem but I have over 100 apps it could be any one of them
Has anybody experienced something similar?
I had a buddy give me an LG Lucid3 that had a similar issue... It actually got worse over time and the touchscreen totally stopped working. (He thought) I took it apart and actually the connection was good. Put it back together and just kept rebooting it multiple times in a row. Finally, the touch started to work a little an for some reason I thought to go and download an antivirus program. The phone had 11. Got rid of them and phone has been working fine for a couple weeks now. Idk if that's your problem but I figured I'd share this experience because I've never seen anything like it.
