When I use games such as angry birds and air traffic control the touchscreen stops working and only starts working when you put the phone to sleep and wake it up again.... Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Angry Birds is a major habit for me, and I have played it stock and on a variety of ROMS. I've never had this issue before. I hate to say it, but you may have a bad phone.
When I had the ATT stock rom, I had some issues where certain letters would just stop responding until I rebooted the phone, then they'd work fine. I think it's a software issue, but I'm not sure.
Since upgrading to the CoreDroid ROM I haven't had the issue, so I'm HOPING that's the resolution because I hate to think there might be a hardware problem.
Yeah its a stock ROM and it happens almost immediately after starting the game. All the animations are still moving but no touch

Is it rooted? If so maybe try throwing on a rooted ROM and see if the issue continues. Coming from iPhone the screen touch experience\quality is nowhere near as good, but it seems like it's at least decent.

runs fast even on the XT720 and that phone is slower than SNS
no problem running it on SNS
Its like a little stutter sometimes when you fling the bird its kinda hard to notice was just wondering if it was just me maybe its the ads

I use ad blocker which works great to get rid of the ads.
Are you overclocking? Sometimes it lags for me at higher speeds and will even crash or reboot the phone.
1.2ghz is the sweet spot for my phone.

How frequent are these "lags"? Check your running services and battery use and make sure you don't have any rogue service or application utilizing your CPU.
Even on the NS you'll notice a slight jitter once in a blue moon. It's just the nature of a multitasking phone that some request or process may suddenly take away too much CPU from your current application.
closing apps , lowering to 1.2 from 1.3 and adfree seemed to have fixed it thanks
I have seen it in some levels, fairly infrequent. it stutters a bit. I given up playing it since I wiped and rooted my phone though
I noticed when I played a few minutes of st patty seasons on the subway the sound and animation wasn't completely in sync.. Nothing crazy though. Otherwise it was fine.

Hey guys. This phone has been great, but now I've just started noticing this problem. The vibrate is getting progressively weaker. You can even "hear"/notice it when, let's say, the phone is ringing, the vibrate will sort of "level" down.
I downloaded an app to test vibration, and it seems to be random and getting weaker. Also, when the phone rings, sometimes, while vibrating it will "hiccup".
What is causing this? Battery? My phone is perfect except this. I REALLY don't want to go back to stock and have to return the phone.
What rom. And kernel are you using? I thought I was having the same problem but it was because I was undervolting

Absolutely no undervolting here; I can tell you that with 100% certainty. I'm using CM7 with default kernel.
At one point I DID mess with the LordMod kernel and install a UV script, but after that I didn't like it (it wasn't smooth as CM7 kernel default), so I did a nandroid restore to an earlier point when I wasn't using it, so I assume the entire system including kernel included was restored.
Yeah your kernel was restored too. Hold the volume down button for 3 seconds. How weak does it feel?

It vibrates, albeit weakly, and vibrates sort of "rough". It even skips while vibrating. Sounds like it's missing (sort of like when a car engine misfires) .
how do you take vibrate off in all settings I thought I did but when I answer the phone it will vibrate and when I use the calculator
Maybe it needs a tune-up?

It's getting more ridiculous. It sputters like a car that has bad spark plugs (analogy).
I contacted AT&T and they are shipping me a replacement. I will report when I get it.
I had a similar problem with my Atrix except it was the keyboard and haptic feedback that was completely giving out. I hope my Inspire doesn't start acting up, I got it off Craigslist not at&t
Sounds like hardware. I.e , the the little motor that spins the little off-center weight that results in the vibration might be going bad :-(. Hope I'm wrong.

If you're into this sort of thing...
First time ive heard about this kind of problem, sounds like your hardware is getting down. Better get it checked if you still have its warranty.

Update: got the replacement. The replacement works perfectly. It is definitely a hardware issue.
So anyone in the future who has this issue, get your phone replaced!!!
Mine has been seeming to get louder, sometimes when typing its almost overwhelmingly loud.
Ehhh... got lucky...

My touch screen some times becomes unresponsive after playing Home Run Battle and Plants vs. Zombies. Its only the touch that becomes unresponsive but my accelerometer still works. I have to restart the phone in order to fix it.

i had a lot of problems when i used advanced task killer on my phone similar to urs. If your using a task killer uninstall it and pull battery on phone then pop it in and boot up again see if it happens.
I definitely had this happen the other day. I wasn't playing any games and I don't have any task killers installed. I was in the middle of a text message when a call came through. I answered the call and then tried to resume my text but nothing was responding. I was still able to flip the phone sideways but I couldn't tap anything at all. I had to do a restart. That was frustrating and I hope it was a one time thing!
I found out that mine was a app called juice defender......it was messing mine up really bad.....uninstalled it and my phone responds....perfect now!!!!!

yeah a lot of people r complaining about hardware and software on HTC's side, but a lot of it has to do with these phones still being pretty new alot of devs havent had the time to make their apps fully compatible with our sensations
I had the same problem yesterday, everything but the screen working, however rather than rebooting, i found that i could pull the top bar down then back up and screen worked again
this is because phone is overheating and the screen gives problems.
I think another charger will resolve this problem or if its `SW problem, OTA will be released...

Your right. It only happens after my phone heats up from gaming for a while. It also happens when the phone is not on its charger.

I had the same problem (not those same games but in some apps and the security pattern lock). I just disabled the Tell HTC option and haven't had a problem since.
EDIT: Wait, when did PvZ come out for Android??

Awhile ago. It's on the Amazon Appstore.
My screen doesn't become unresponsive if I play PvZ, but if I play it for too long, Sense reloads when I exit out of the game.

Looking in the forums for something to do to fix the touchscreen being all buggy I disabled Tell HTC and that worked for me!

When you say weird stuff, is it like spazzing out and sensing touches everywhere? Mine is doing that
Mine things i'm constantly tapping on one part of the screen. It happens randomly too
My first shift fif that. Took it to the sprint store while it was messing up and the dude said mine was possesed and gave me a new one.

If the screen starts acting strange usually it's a Hardware issue. Best bet is to RUU back to stock to eliminate the possibility of it being the Rom. If the issue continues at that point, take it in and have them look at it. Always remember it's best to take your phone in Stock Unrooted . That way they cannot say it was something you did.
i've had 3 Shifts so far and i guess i'm lucky to have never had this happen to me! the only thing mine has ever done as far as the touchscreen goes is sometimes i'll get an error message saying "touch input has stopped functioning" or something like that. i have to restart and it's fine. i'd imagine these issues are covered by insurance.
Hey there xda people, just wanting to let you people know that the WidgetLocker (app) for me at least causes some multi touch problems with the one x.
The problem that it causes is whenever your holding one finger down on the screen to like say control a virtual analog for a game so you can move around and then tap anywhere on the screen to shoot or something. The first finger hold gets wiped out and causes movement to stop. All in all its causes a horrible experience while playing games.
I was having this issue forever until today when I wiped my phone clean and everything works fine with games and stuff until I installed WidgetLocker and I get the issue again. So this issue was fixed when I stopped using the app.
Not sure if a lot of people uses this app but I've been using it since I bought my first Android (sgs ii) and it's a great way to customize your lock screen with widgets and stuff. I'm definitely going to let the developer know about this bug when I have time, my guess as to why this happen is the way that it unlocks your phone that messes up the multitouch.

I didn't have to restart, just had to lock the phone then unlock it again with the stock lockscreen.

You are right. When I woke up this morning, it was fixed.
MiLocker causes the same issue... How sad.

Glad to see your issue was fixed. The good thing though is that I'm in love with my phone again lol.
Although I was trying out cm9 alpha 3 earlier this week and I'm pretty sure I was getting the same issue without WidgetLocker. Maybe the locker with cm9 causes this issue as well?
I could be wrong with cm9 though as I may have downloaded the app but didn't use it so that could've cause the problem as well.

I ran into this issue a while ago... here is a thread I started about it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1665603
I never did resolve the issue (aside from disabling Widget Locker), nor did I get around to contacting the developer...
However, it appears this does not affect all One Xs using WL as several other people tested and were able to use Widget Locker with out breaking multitouch on the One X.
I checked out this and mesaone's thread as I was having this issue too. Turns out I was able to fix it by disabling HTC gestures in the Display & Gestures settings menu. DoomGLES now runs without a hitch and I'm able to both move and fire/open doors at the same time. I haven't tested much beyond the DoomGLES test but if anything changes I'll report back.
EDIT: It appears the solution was short-lived; quitting fully out of the applications, turning off the screen, turning it back on and unlocking and then relaunching the app caused the issue to return. On the other hand, simply disabling widget locker for the duration of the game works fine (and unless you're turning your phone off and on a lot while playing games, probably not a big deal). No need to uninstall.
ONe X and Widgetlocker
I have had Widgetlocker for 2 years on my HTC desire. Now upgraded to One X and I have a problem with answering calls.
If the phone is locked and I get a call, I get the call answer option but then have to put in my unlock number. By this time the caller has hung up. Previously on my HTC desire I could answer by pulling the screen slider down even if the phone was locked.
Have I missed a setting??
Help would be good
Thanks
TA
The only option would be to not use widgetlocker if you don't want to have problems (that is if you do have problems). I want to confirm that this issue occurs in CM9 even without the widgetlocker app, not sure if others are getting this issue but I suppose I'll be CM9less till it is addressed and fixed.

CM9 and AOKP in general currently have a multitouch bug, whether its with WidgetLocker or not.
