I have a problem with my touchscreen that sometimes it doesn't respond at certain areas on the screen. For example i can not type some letters on the keyboard. I have to lock and unlock to get the touchscreen working again.
Did anybody ever experience something like this?
Used to experience that. Not sure was it the rom or 3rd party keyboard. But this was a long time ago and have not experience it since.
Currently on codefirex with swiftkey.
If you are using a 3rd party keyboard app, try using stock. If not try a different rom.
Last time it happend I was using Swiftkey as well and it happend on different roms.
Maybe it is a hardware issue? The point is that it happens rather rarely. Only every few days.
But it is also not always the same area on the screen that is blocked. Very strange bug..

hi,
I'm not sure when exactly this issue started on my phone, but I updated my touch pro with the chevron updater and have quite a lot of apps installed.
after several seconds workling with the phone, the touch screen stops working while the phone acts perfectly normal. I can use the keyboard and tilt the phone but I cannot use the touch screen anymore.
By turning the phone off and on it works again.
has anyone experienced a behavior like this?
I noticed my touchscreen becoming unresponsive when loading particular websites. Even had it freeze once (only time it ever froze on me)
What were you doing when it does this? Do you have the multitasking reg edit on?

I know this is an old thread but this is the only reference to the exact same problem that I'm having. I'm having difficulty putting this down to hardware as the screen becomes responsive again when locking and unlocking which might point to software.
It could be a hardware issue that is resolved by locking then unlocking the phone but I don't know enough about the construction of it to have an opinion.
The advice I've had from htc is to wipe the 'phone and start again but I don't expect that to solve it (especially as their call handling system refers to Window Mobile 7 - the second large commercial organisation I've seen that on in recent weeks without looking too hard!).
Has anyone else seen this since the original post or @exilkubaner was a solution found to your problem?
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem. I hard reset my HTC 7 Pro, but no success, my screen doesn't respond until i lock/unlock the device.
So, any one have resolved this issue since the first post ?
Regards
Had the same issue, but I didn't have any roms installed.
Brought it in to Sprint and they found that I had a fried ribbon connecting the screen to the phone. Replaced under warranty.
It happened again, I determined that it was caused by my click in belt clip/holster. When I pull the phone out, it pulls the screen away from the keyboard a bit.
^Wow. Nice find. I'll have to be careful with mine now as I could easily run in to the same problem pulling it out like that.
When im typing on my phone, it usually works fine for a little then starts to lag and some keys i press dont work... i dont know if this is a problem with the touchscreen or the software. if i lock the phone and unlock it, usually it will work. so im hoping it isnt the keyboard. is there a solution for this?

I have noticed this bug on sense 2.1 roms. If you rotate the screen it will switch keyboards and fix it and you can just rotate it back. I have never experienced this on 3.0 and higher sense roms. I think its just a bug on 2.1.
Also it has been a reported bug on CM7 roms, I believe its CM7 roms or maybe older versions too. There is no current fix. Some users just use a keyboard from the market like swiftkey or something like that. Its an app you have to pay for, but seems to get rid of the issue.
I ran into a similar issue last night when I was typing a post on another forum. My keyboard lagged greatly and then just stop responding for a few seconds. However it seemed to only happen when I was in my browser typing on the forum page. It was happening on Dolphin Browser and the stock browser. I tested it with three different keyboards (Swiftkey X, Gingerbread Keyboard, and stock Sense keyboard). All lagged. Restarting didn't resolve. The lag did not happen with other apps like GO SMS, Twitter, or Facebook. Nor did it happen on a couple other websites I tested on. I noticed when I turned off the vibration, or lowered the vibrate time, the lag lessened. I'm thinking it's an issue with memory or processing speed, but I have no idea how I would test or resolve something like that.
I'm running ARHD 6.1.5, only slightly OC'd.
Now that I think about it. It sounds like all 2.3.3 based roms have this bug, aosp or sense.
Not sure I've seen this before. I'm fully stock with an unlocked bootloader and when writing an email or a post of any lenght, my keyboard begins to slow down to a crawl and is almost unresponsive at times. Anyone has similar experience or how can I solve this problem.
I've had this problem for a while now, completely stock through all of the point releases. Restarting helps for a little bit. Now I swipe everything I type to cut down on the lag. I rarely turn my phone sideways to type anymore. That's one way to fix it, lol.
Only seen this happening since the last Google Keyboard update, myself. A reboot fixed it up though.
I've had the phone since the day it came out. It took me a while to notice but the screen is definitely unresponsive at times. It is actually difficult to notice because, if you are like me and spend hours on your phone every day, if every so often if a touch doesn't register, your brain automatically make you repeat the gesture and you don't even think about it. And, it's OK if it happens like once a day. But with this phone, it's hundred times a day. I thought I was crazy so I recorded a video with my OP5.
See here: https://imgur.com/a/lZS4eVP
OK so this is kind of a very bad occurrence. Usually, it's not always like that. Sometimes it works perfectly fine. I also wonder if this could be the reason why the double tap to wake is also inconsistent, when the screen is off.
Also, yes, I do have a screen protector, but I've had them on all my phones and never had an issue.
Looks like this is happening only with you, is this problem occurring only in specific apps? or globally..
The touch here works snappy and very responsive. Maybe a faulty device? report to service center, I guess.
I also noted unresponsive screen once in a while while trying to click some hyperlinks or items with small clickable icons. But it's not anywhere close to what your video showed. Best and fair thing to do would be: Fresh flash the stock rom, don't install any additional apps then see if the problem persists. If it does, time to call customer service for a replacement unit. Good luck!
I've had similiar issues with my Essential PH-1, turns out it was a defect in the digitizer and I was RMA'd on it.
Nope working great here.
Do I get a new phone if I rma it? Or refurbished?
No I get this sometimes as well. Not nearly as bad as shown in your video, but sometimes it just doesn't register the touch properly and you have to touch it harder for it to register. Or when scrolling it only registers the scrolling partially
i have same problem in the same position
It happens to me sometimes when I tap the screen (for example tapping on a contact in whatsapp) that the screen doensn't respond good. When I tap a few times more and with a little more pressure it's going well. (I didn't test without the factory applyed screen protector)
Do people who have this problem use gestures? For me, the problem also occurs (no reaction when I tap the hyperlink or a small icon) but I noticed that it only occurs when the gestures are on. Maybe there is a problem.
Hello,
I've since the update 10.5.8 and 10.5.9, I've got miss typing on the edge
When i'm typing a word starting on the edge/curve screen, the word is in 2nd position instead of 1st position :
meme => emem
pq => qp
aux => uax
autant => uatant
qd = dq
This is like pocophone when the phone get out there was a touchscreen bug for 6 months then they've fixed it so no more reverse letter
Now it's a regression from OnePlus because on previous firmware i didn't have any issue
I'm on stock rom just rooted and BL unlock
I'm the only one ?
It's happening the same to me. I'm going to try another keyboard app, I'm using Gboard.
Stock ROM here but not rooted.
Edit: it only happens to me if using Gboard, but it works fine with SwiftKey. Try it.
I've used touchpal on my old phone and with oneplus i wanted to used stock app (now i liked it, it's very difficult to change )
i've tried swiftkey and go keyboard and i've still got some miss type but not as much as gboard and i don't really like it
But this happen since latest update only with 10.5.7 i have no issue at all

I tried SwiftKey yesterday but I don't like it as I cannot switch from Spanish QWERTY keyboard (with Ñ) to Portuguese QWERTY keyboard (with Ç). Gboard can do it...
I think we have to write slower til Oneplus fixes it... :silly:
Yeah, i've open a case since 10.58.0 but we have so much isssue with google stuff
also Chrome freezing issue

But I think is some Google related problem. I was owning a Huawei P30 before OP8 (since more than a year and until 2 weeks ago) and Google Chrome was freezing also there (the trick was going to homescreen and then open Chrome back again, that fixes it temporary until another freeze hahaha). So I don't think that's related with OP8, but not sure.
I've uninstall Webview android so it's stock one and i don't have that much miss typing...
I didn't install the update from play store but for the mom i'm staying like that
I have this problem even when using other keyboards

And what does Android Webview have to do with this keyboard issue?
Another one with the same problem. It seems that this issue is fixed with Swiftkey but I don't like it at all. I've contacted with One Plus support but the only solution that they gave me was sending to RMA.
I've tried with the Android 11 Beta 2 but the issue persists...
oh double post
Really ? They may change our screen for this issue ?
This happen since 10.5.8 update before that I've didn't have any issue.
It's like a driver issue.. but it's seems we are only a few people who are affected by this issue
They can change with 8T for me
My issue is similar to yours. The error appears when I press "ai" or "qi" quickly or with two thumbs - the result is "ia" and "iq" even though I believe I pressed "a" and "q" first. On the edges of the screen, there is a small delay in input. The problem isn't unique to physical edges, as all "a" and "q" buttons can be delayed even if they are not directly pressed on the edge. My conclusion is that this confirms the existence of a software bug. Is this something that can be fixed? I find it quite uncomfortable to type with two thumbs. Would it be possible to change this? It is on a Nordic keyboard, and "q" and "a" is located right at the screen edge. There is no difference in the problem no matter what keyboard I use, including Gboard (despite its small buffer between the screen edge and the leftmost key). For practicing typing, I found a free online typing test tool to see how fast you type. Also, it will help you remember the keys. It's an easy and enjoyable way to check your typing skills.
