Well it's obvious that it's a hardware problem but you can try flashing another ROM and see if it solves the problem. Best of luck.

perhaps this thread could help you out.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680175
i had the same problem as you

Had the same problem after flashing a new rom for some time. The area was nearly the same as your description - the right edge, mainly on the area where you type P, O and L.
Since I had too much of junk apps in my phone at that time, I reflashed my phone, then chose only necessary apps to install and problem gone. So I couldn't really tell which helped, the app, or the reflashing.
Also found in somewhere that if it's the keyboard area, trying installing other keyboard apps.
Try reflashing them from stock and see if it solves your problem. Could be some app causing some unresponsiveness due to lag (my guess)..
Good luck!

Cant Align Screen! Please!

Hi,
My friend gave me his device and ask me to upgrade it, I already read everything n download the ROM n done upgrade the device.
Now my biggest problem is I cant align screen. I tried n tried many times but still same.Got any idea or solution for this problem???
Thanks everyone! Thanks
I tried upgrade using ROM from t-mobile.nl and the one from here but still same....
no one got any idea or got same problem too???
HI
One of my friend had the same problem. When trying to Align Screen, same screen appears again and again.
I tried Upgrading to New ROM still same problem.
Final Solution: I replaced the Touch Screen, Now there is no issue.
So Friend, This is and expensive solution but this is the only solution...
Your case may have some crap making contact with the screen. Before replacing your screen, read the hermes thread on using a business card to clear the crap and fix the screen. If it doesn't work, and you've tried hardreset/new rom, you are probably better off buying a new phone.
You could replace the screen, but it might not be cost effective.
I could probably disable the align screen settings for you, but if the screen is misaligned anyway, the phone is probably of no use either way.
V
I still keep trying, hope got the solutions soon....
Thanks everyone!

Hmmm... I am going through a similar problem... I've noticed that when this unresponsiveness occurs and I keep my phone for charging the touch becomes normal again. But as soon as I disconnect the problem comes back.
I had this issue before too. When I was on TheFrankestains miui v10.5... And now I am on RemICS v2.
I'll like to mention here that on v1 of RemICS I didn't face this issue. In v2 the developer did mention a change in the kernel.
Also another er thing with the unresponsiveness the bln is acting weird too. Now I don't know what to conclude from all this.
And ya when it had occurred before I did take it to the customer service. And all they did was remove my screen guard and reflash the stock. :what:
The problem disappeared that time but it has resurfaced again. :sly:

Even I'm facing this issue and thats the exact reason i'm not going to service center. I doubt its a H/W issue cause the screen does work! If it had been a H/W problem then the shouldnt have been any touch response!
Its might be similar to backlight issue but too bad we're facing it on stock aswell.
I had posted a logcat in the dev ICS thread but no response from anyone.
If there are more people facing this issue then please come forward.
I got only one phone. . And i cant use it.

I'm on ICS Alpha V6 . I get this problem occasionally.
Problem occurs when i get a call and the touch becomes unresponsive. Not all the times but sometime. If i lock the screen and unlock it becomes proper. Sometimes it takes 2-3 locks and unlocks. Weird. Never had this problem in stock before .
Everytime this problem starts after a call. Happens on stock as well as custom Roms. Can't figure out if it's software or hardware problem. But the touch becomes normal when the phone's kept on charging.
Anyways going back to the customer service tomorrow. Will tell them to change the touch panel.

Probably Hardware, i am using RemICS v2 and NOT experiencing this issue on both my device and my sister's device (tried the call thing too)
I advise you guys to go to the service center (without a screen protector) and with the stock rom (so they don't have to flash anything) so they see it live, and hence there's no point of flashing stock again (over stock lulz) they'll probably change the screen for you.
i have the same problem now.. i dunno if i will ever get this phone fixed. my warranty's expired for a month.

Same problem for everyone...
is it more likely to be a hardware issue??
It is a Hardware issue.
I gave my phone to the Service Centre yesterday. I called them today to check on the status. They said it's a hardware issue so they'll give it tomorrow. Let's hope for the best...
BTW I will get an extended warranty on the replaced part, won't I?

And the problem is back. Not entirely though.
After deep sleep if I unlock the phone, the touchscreen doesn't work. I have to lock and unlock to get it working.
After unlocking, once the display goes off, the menu and back keys stop working. Have to lock unlock again.
Had flashed cm9 stock kernel yesterday morning since gps isn't working for me in UCv15. Didn't face any problem yesterday after flashing stock kernel.

Hello guys...strange things are going on in my phone from last 2 months..at first it used to react as if the back softkey is prseed..it used to bring me back to home screen through all screens i passed to open a app (like setting->wireless and..->internet seting..->apn..)and reversly it sent me back to home without letting me to change any data.....then it used to act as if the option/search soft key is pressed..like if the home screen is not altered for 5 sec..the google search option opens...many times pressing home key took a screen shot...and my touch screen started to be unresponsive...firstly i could use my for but sometimes the screen remained unresponsive which could be fixed by pressing power button and locking the screen agin..then it used to response...now a days the phone hardly responces 2-5 times a day and accepts only one selection(like i may open app drawer but cant se;ect any app its frozen or open the phone app but no number could be pressed..its frozen)
i have flashed almost every rom but none fix the problem...recovery mode key test does not detect my 2 soft keys..
...samsung care is verry laggy here ..and irresponsible..last time they took my samsung j 150 and returned it after 3 months with a new defect of speaker blown and a huge billl..
plz help me... thank you
On my device, if I put the phone in my pocket with the screen facing my thigh, i tend to sweat a bit in long pants and thus the phone gets some sweat on the screen. After wiping it off, the phone would not be very responsive. I would pull everything out and leave for a while, I assume water had gone in, then it worked. So is something similar happening?

First of all..THANKS for your reply..yes..u r very right..even in early days(near abt 3 months..when problem started) the phone used to be more unresponsive after taking it out of my pocket..but pulling off didnt fix anything..a funny fact (may be logical due to drynesss) is keeping the phone in a.c room makes it work for a while(not the soft keys..every thing else)..so your guess is right..but pulling out all didnt help me..

Then your problem may not be the same. Maybe a hairdryer will do. If it still doesn't work then maybe it's your touch panel. My phone works perfectly at home

Me too think that its not the touch sceen..but something due to the softkeys...i have been observing my phone from the first day of fault...but may be the touch panel is faulty...not sure..any way thanx for your active responce...
I think you should clean up your phone and then cover the gaps between the glass and the chrome colored plastic design.
Try it?

This can happen also due to bad flash or kernel malfunction...due to wifi panic
Try flashing zero fill tar and flash fresh rom.

Deep sleep kernel panic makes the phone unresponsive when exposed to some heat and moisture... generally a clean flash would solve the problem...
zero fill is a tar file that helps clean the system by removing all the previous system data..just flash any rom after flashing zero fill.tar normally.
also you have to take care that screen stays out of sweat(moisture)

sorry,tried your advice...but no luck...thanx anyway....(i dunno why the touch buttons not working???i am sure they are the culprits..)
Unconventional, but if you wanna check the softkeys you could open up the phone (it's really easy if you use a guitar pick) and disconnect the buttons. Phone should still boot. If the behaviour is better, you could swap the softkeys for a replacement and problem solved. I take no responsibility for this. I myself have changed some electrical parts including the display, but I cannot say for sure that the phone boots without the softkeys connected without taking permanent damage. But you sound like it can only get better^^

[Q] Phone Jitters

has any noticed "jitters" with there phone screens becuase ive notived lately that my phone "jitters" ( kinda like a reception issue i guess ) were the screen flickers on an off and im needing help in regards to fixing this issue ( IF IT CAN BE FIXED ) or do i need to send my phone into samsung to get replaced please let me know
I would get a replacement.. sounds like hardware failure
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
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.

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

Big Touchscreen Problem

Hey Guys, i just recieved my TF300T , but i have a problem with it...
I cant use the Touchscreen it just does what it wants. If i have opened the Onscreen Keyboard it sometimes just "presses" random letters even if my Hand isn't nearly the screen. Is there anyway to fix it ? I already reseted it but it didnt work.
I hope you can understand what i mean...Im from Germany so my English isnt that good
I have bought the same device last month and i know what you mean.
Sometimes the touchsreen keyboard woks without problems and sometimes go got the letter more than onetimes and when you delete it you delete more letters. Really strange problem.
I realize that the keyboard reacts some milimeters over the touchscreen it reacts very sensitive i do not know if this is a software or a hardware bug.
If you turn the display more times of and one it works again normal.
Have you found a solution for the problem.
I have on my device Asus TF300T with 16GB, CM 10 installed from the begining because i would like to have root an my device.
any ideas?
Is the tablet brand new and behaving this way? If so, try to get the tablet to fully update to the latest version. Once updated, do another factory reset for good measure. If you are still having these touch issues, I would contact the reseller as you might have a defective digitizer.

Ive had the tf300t for about 6 months now and mine has been doing it since day one.I even brought one back to store and got a new one and it still did it.I just turn screen off and back on and it works fine.I am rooted and have custom rom and it has done it with every rom i had on here.Ive tried reset,factory reset,and wipe everything and start over and it still does it.It doesnt happen that much so im kinda use to it now.My advice is to just turn screen off and back on.
Turning "Show touches" on in the developer options might help
