Hi, I recently changed to insertcoin for a week or so and I started getting the issues with unlocking, apps not responding to touch and such. So I got annoyed and I decided to compile myself a Rom, and since then I never got a touch screen issue again. It's been 2 weeks. So is the touchscreen issue a hardware problem or a software problem? And have any of you experience this before ?

It seems to be software related because I had the problem with my stock rom, after installing TouchScreen Booster from the market, it fix it.

Quick question.. I know most of us are being plagued by the annoying touch screen issues.. so my question is:
Users that are using root/custom firmware.. are you still experiencing these issues? This will be the deciding factor in whether or not I root this phone seeing as there's not any release dates for any software updates.
I bought the S4G on July 9th. For the first week or so, I had a problem with the touchscreen where dragging the unlock ring up would rather bring an icon up. It would take 3-4 tries before the phone would really pull up the unlock ring.
After the first week, the problem went away for me. I have been S-OFF since the first of August with perm root and the problem still hasn't come back. Not sure if this is the same issue as you, but the problem seemed to fix itself.
What exactly is S-OFF? And what does it do for you?

My phone used to that at one point and it drove me crazy! Since then I did the whole rooting thing, flashed Civic's back2basic rom and I've haven't had any problems since. It's running super smooth. Did two other sensations with no problems, lag or reboots yet

Not sure if my problem is the same. On my Sensation, when my screen is turned on, it's not responsive in all places for the first 6 to 7 seconds. After 10 secs or so, it's working flawlessly. It's especially annoying when answerring or cancelling a phone call.
Do you think rooting and S-off would help this issue? I'm now on OTA 2.3.4
S-OFF, ROOT, custom rom etc. does NOT fix touch screen issue. That's what you were asking about, right?
OK, thanks for clearing that out.
The thing is, that I only have this issue after getting the phone back from repair (shattered glass). The repair guy couldn't find anything that could cause this issue. But due to the repair this touch screen vulnerability was triggered. Can't go back to HTC now, due to the repair. So I'm stuck for now.

If you haven't come across it yet, give this thread a read.
It does not. I used the Touchscreen Booster from the market. Works fine.
Rooting helps you to control your phone. You can try different roms and see if the problem goes.
Rooting doesn't but flashing a 2.3.4 ROM will solve ur issues more than likely. I'm using LeeDroid and its great no lag no dead spots.

Hey guys, I'm experiencing this strange issue. I'm not sure if it's hardware. When somebody's calling me and I answer the call and put my phone to my ear, there's about 3 sec lag until person on the other side can hear me. This used to work fine, it first occured when I started using Sense 3 ROM (not immediatelly), so I thought I should try Saga4D, but problem still persists. I haven't really tried any "nonsense" rom since I need Usb tethering. Is there any way to check or recalibrate this sensor?
Thanks for help!
Ok, it's most likely this issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16230

Hey, thx for all answers. Fix I posted works only every few times. I use Saga4D, It's 2.3.5 Sense 3 ROM. Is there any Sense 3 ROM w/out this issue?

I don't really intend to bother anybody, but I had this problem with two Sense 3 ROMs. Is there any Sense 3 ROM you guys use without call answer delay? Besides official from HTC, I rather wouldn't S-ON my device just to check if I have update available. Thank you!
Recently I purchased Motorol Atrix2 Phone in India. I am facing some problems...:crying:
1.) While playing Racing Moto game(downloaded from android market) suddenly touch response goes(hlding touch on the screen to increase bike speed) so the bike speed goes down from 120 kmph to 70. After that it will work fora while and again slows down.
2.) Some times touch is not working, this is noticed while playing Temple Run game.
3.) As many people discussed in this forum, network disconnection issue exists.
4.) While playing many of the games/applications, applications hangs(application, not phone) for a while(around 20 sec) and starts working after that. This issue is observed in most of the apps.
When I contatced customer care, they told to do factory reset. After factory reset also, same issues exists.
Does any body noticied similar kind of issues? or my phone is defective one?.
Thanks,
Murali

I admit that this is a very strange problem that none of us are facing. In few days you will get ICS update which might fix the problem. If you are daring enough, then you can install the ICS leak on your own and check whether the problem persists or not.

@androiddecoded, thanks for your reply. I bought it 3 weeks back, so i will wait till ICS OTA. Can you try playing "Racing Moto" game in your atrix2 phone and check whether bike speed suddenly comes down.

Yeah, I have played it lots of time. No problem
Make Sure you do not have non market apps and Hacked apps installed on your phone.
Check the SD card (if games are running from card), you might wanna format the card and reload things, since this is a gaming issue only.
i faced a similar problem with some EA games, then i bought a 16GB grade 10 card and now every games work smooth.
I hope you do not have any screen guard installed.
If all fails, Buy Galaxy S 3 :laugh:

No non market apps are installed, these games are installed in phone memory only(as you know 4GB internal memory is available for apps in Atrix 2).
I added screen guard to the phone screen. If it is the problem with screen guard always it should not work right?.
I played with company given normal screen cover, that time also faced same issue...
I had exactly the same issues with stock 2.3.6 but ever since upgaraded to ICS leak no such problems. Stock rom is no good so better upgrade or wait and upgrade OTA.

You will lose your warranty..but you can always flash back to stock before taking it to service centre..n besides motorola service centres in india are so bad that its better to avoid them as far as possible..my experience

Will not be an issue unless you know basic stuff on flashing. I had my atrix 2 sent to mororola for replacement under warranty and I was using 4.0.4 leak on it. Ensure you get it flashed back to 2.3.6 while sending it to service center.
Battery problem
I recently bought atrix 2 and found that it shows battery in the intervals of 10% so i installed battery solo widget and also circle battery widget which indicates 1% battery discharging. But whenever i unplug the charger after it is displayed 100 in the widget, the widget shows 99 as soon as i unplug the charger.. Is there a problem in my battery???
Facing same issues on my atrix 2 recently purchased
I am also facing the same issue while playing Racing Moto game. Also the touch hangs sometimes while dialing.
Letme know if you found any solutions.

I would get a replacement.. sounds like hardware failure

That happened to me and I had to get a replacement. Started off being a sporadic issue and progressively got worse, to the point where o could not use my phone when it happened. The phone would flicker a charcoal grey color, this would cover the entire screen except the notification bar. It hasn't happened with the replacement.

Are you running stock rom or have you rooted and run custom roms? could be a rom issue... if running stock possibly hardware issue..

i found the issue it wasn't hardware failure or rom is was actually using the TWRP 2.4 recovery i tested it with 3 of the roms i normally run as dailies ( tweaked 2.2 slim 3.1.0 Struck and PAC 4.1.2 and it jittered the screens like bad ( kinda like a computer that when it gets popped with a magnet / or older tv having f|_|cked up reception so i changed the recoveries and viola no more jitters so apparently the TWRP doesn't like blaze owners ( at least me lol ) but if there's anyone else experiencing these issues narrow down first before you consult a replacement
Hii Devs
I got an Alcatel OT X'POP running jb 4.1.1 with dual sim.
Recently I made an upgrade using ONE TOUCH UPGRADE S. Everything went fine until I discovered that my android got some randoms lags now and then. They are just random. some happens while chatting, exploring, others while playing etc..
So I'm trying to look for a Backup stock rom to flash.
Will that fix my lags ?
If so, where to find ? Because I don't have any, and I've been searching for like 2 days. Found one, "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284347&page=28 " but it said to have a blacklight problem. If they aren't any, is there a fix for that blacklight?
Hope I get an answer soon, because its really annoying especially i went through all possible tweaks and in vain.
Thanks in advance.
