Hi,
I have a problem whit my Samsung Galaxy Note. When ever I have rooted my phone, the touch screen randomly stops working. It seems to happen whenever I come near the proximity sensor during the time when I make a call. I know that it is used to dim/lock the screen during the call but it seems that the touchscreen system chrashes at that point and stays in that locked mode. After a reboot everything is fine untill it randomly happens again.
When such thing happens, the stylus is working but the finger touch is not reckognized anymore. The strange thing is that when I unroot my phone everything seems to work fine.
And that is a bummer because I cannot sent it for replacement because everything seems to work fine when my phone is stock/unrooted.
The phone is brand new, got it last saturday.
Is there any one who has heard of this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Jeffrey

i purchased g1 from ebay, right from day1 the screen does not respond properly in fact most of the times. i need to reset soft one to at least g1 working. i upgraded to jesusfrake adp1.1 but issue is same. looks like a s/w bug or problem as if it were a h/w problem it would not have worked at all. if iam lucky it works like a charm but stops responding once i get some sms/email alert or install any app from market. can someone help here!!
Have you already tried reflashing the firmware? If not, do that. Otherwise, why don't you contact the person you bought the phone from. It sounds like it may be a hardware problem which might be why that person was selling it.
i did flash everything from bootloader to firmware to rooting. but problem remains same...it works for 5 minutes and again screen stops responding but trackball is active....right now iam on latest JF formware..
is anyone facing a simillar problem??? any work arounds....
Sometimes my home screen goes completely blank on me and seems nonresponsive for about 30 seconds. Can be pretty annoying. It seems to happen when I'm switching from an app to the home screen.
Contact HTC directly and ask for an exchange or something. All G1's have been out for less than a year and so they should be covered by warranty.
I put a new screen protector on my G1. I noticed that it had a bad reaction with the touch and I took it off. After I took it off, my touch screen got much worse. It was very jumpy and unuseable. There was a practically invisible film on the screen (couldn't even really feel it. I took a little bit of soap on a lint free cloth and wiped the screen down and let it sit for just a minute (to soak any residue) and wiped away. My screen worked perfect after that.
I was ready to call in for a replacement.
could it be a bug as if it were a hardware problem it would prevent touch screen responding at all!!!
i downgraded to rc 30 and rooted the phone, now its working like a charm!! strange though.......
My Galaxy S 2 touch stops responding randomly, or sometimes when i take it out of my pocket. At that moment i cant pick up calls to or even unlock the screen , So what i have to do to fix it is restart the phone or rub it against my stomach (really) to make it respond and it does work but i m tired of doing this every time. please help.
Also fyi my screen is a bit cracked but the touch works perfectly fine.
Please help.
I dont think its a rom bug cause im useing Cyanogen mod9.
This is known to happen on CM9. Check troubleshooting in the OP.
The solution to this is to put your whole palm on the screen and move it around. It'll reset it.
Hello everyone!
I have been visiting the site for a long time but this is the first time I actually post.
Well the problem I have with my nexus is that the screen stopped working a few days ago, but the touchscreen is still responding. I was walking at the beach with the phone in my pocket and after some time I realized the phone was not working. I suppose it was the humidity because the phone was completely dry.
Now the weird thing is that the touchscreen works perfectly, I can feel it when I unblock the phone, but the screen is completely black. Anyone has any idea how to fix this? I already changed the screen of my old nexus 4 a few times, but is there any other option? because I do not want to pay for the whole screen replacement when the touchscreen is working. I would say that it is just some contacts not working properly, but I do not really know how to fix that.
I hope someone has an idea how to fix it.
Thank you!
Maybe this thread will point in the right direction. Mentioned is flashing stock recovery.

Thanks for the reply! I tried that but it did not work and after the battery run out I realized it was not charging either. So I think the only thing left is to send it to repair to LG or something...
Hi everyone,
Since some weeks ago the S8+ from my wife, which was working perfectly fine until that night, suddenly stopped working.
It wouldn't charge, turn on nor was it giving any life signs. After we sent it to a repair center, they checked and told that the motherboard failed.
They had some other S8+ with a broken screen so they took out that motherboard and replaced the one on my wifes phone.
The phone worked all fine after the replacement until I tried to make a call via viber.
At first I tested everything, including calls and everything was working.
Then after some hours until she tried to accept a viber call it just froze and rebooted! No matter if it is a normal call, viber, WhatsApp, telegram it is all the same the phone just freezes and reboots.
I will take it anyway again to the repair center, but my wife is not at home since the last 2 weeks so we have to wait and I am interested if someone might have an idea what might be wrong.
As already written, everything works perfectly, just calls force the phone to reboot. I have somehow managed a few times to get it not to reboot, but then the speaker and loadspeaker do not work. After a reboot the speakers are working fine but the calls do not work again....
Really strange issue, wonder what might cause it.
P.S. It is an Exynos model.
EDIT: Fixed it, it was a faulty sensor, I think it was the proximity sensor
Hello guys. I had a strange issue with my wife's phone today... and I wanted to know y'all opinion about it before spending money in a new screen.
First of all, we never did any bootloader-unlocking or rooting on it before.
She was returning home with the phone in her backpack (empty, so the phone was not hit or anything). And when she arrived she took the phone and it began to hang and get freeze. Then it restarted itself, and entered in a bootloop. It stayed that way for an hour until finally I got to turn it on. But the touchscreen didnt work anymore (the screen looks perfectly and it has NO scratch, I swear...)
So I tried a factory reset, but the touch still didn't work.
So, what do you guys think? Could be something like software/drivers problem? Did you know any similar issue ever?
I think its very weird, cause before it worked perfectly. And it matches too much with the almost-brick moment...
