I think it is H/W issues better to take it Samsung Service Center.....
This is an hardware issue has happened with me. Your usb port must have gone faulty. When my usb port had water in it had to be changed and they charged me 2000rs for it they will have to change the entire usb component of otherwise the touch of your phone won't respond to correctly!!!

OK...but here's the funny bit... when I blow into the charging port (made sure I was only blowing dry air) the touch becomes as responsive as it was initially.. then returns back to its sad state in a couple of mins..
Screen shot attached shows it working fine after blowing..
I don't have a spare phone so giving it to ssc will be my last option..

Use hairdryer and blow hot air in usb port. It should solve ur issue.
Don't blow for long time it may make ur port very hot and can damage ur hw.

He said blowing DRY AIR, he didn't memtioned it was hot air which can vaporize wetness.

Thanks for the suggestion guys, but the hair dryer just isn't doing the trick...
Anymore tips guys? Should I try opening the phone? Would ssc know?

why are you taking so much pain ??
if ur phone is covered under warranty then let the ssc people do it..
but if u want to experiment, you are free to do so...!!
Okay... a friend suggested I keep my phone over night in a jar of rice to absorb the moisture.. if it doesn't work then I'm off to ssc tmr.. I won't open it up..
Thanks for the help everyone..
Btw: surprisingly, it works fine when on charging.. I'm really clueless to the cause of the issue..

If water has gone inside then ssc will come to know because there is a waste strip inside which detects inrush of water inside the phone. If they are charging you high for the same then u can always try by yourself but be careful.
Its a common trouble with galaxy r....i experienced a similar one and just gave to ssc they solved in 2 days they changed whole lcd screen and charging port and didn't charge anything....just dnt tell them abt water and other stuff and get back to GB before giving to ssc

i'll update to let you all know what went wrong..
My glaxy R is not giving proper touch responce. touch responce is very good while the charger or USB cable is connected. but as soon as I remove the cable touch becomes hard i need to puch 2 to 3 times to get proper reponse. I took the mobile to the service center They told me that it has got water & need to replace the Display panel. But I have never let the divece to the water. Any help please. & after this problem battery life is also effeted it is standing only hardly a day or a day & half.

yes buddy they are correct this is because of the water, use hair drier or similar one which blows hot air then blow some hot air through charger pin so that it will drain the water in the mobile....
Note: use this for just few seconds or else it may damage the other parts...

Step One:
Dear, you can ask the SSC executive that if its so, then when I connect the charger or USB how does it working smoothly..?
The SSC guys are seriously Nuts. They just want to drag the matter from there soldiers to the customers. so, don't become fool from them. Ask them to give proper reason. Be clever & ask them to give proper response else you will report a case in Consumer Court.
Step Two:
If its correct as per MJ, then do what MJ said & Praise to GOD.
Ooopssss !!! this guy say he never dropped his phone into water but SSC say, it has been damaged...

I am having the same problem as tanveer4m. the touch will become responsive only when charging. In addition, the charging indicator is kept flashing eventhough i'm not connecting it to any power source. so, when the charging indicator is flashing, the phone is responding well, but when the battery reach below 20%, the charging indicator will not shown and the phone will become irresponsive. Can anyone help me with the problem?
i am currently using blueberry rom, and i tried to change to titanium kernel but the problem still persist.

problem will be solved when you use the mobile for long time. I didn’t do any repair for my mobile it is running fine now & then but he problem is still there. Sometime it run’s absolutely fine without having any problem.
what you mention is the same problem was there for my mobile flashing, irresponsive touch
My A110 suddenly developed a problem last week.
The display doubles or triples and the whole thing shakes and flickers. In the menu, there are vertical lines. Apps are all washed out and not very clear. This occurs even in boot screen, so it's definitely a hardware problem. I have no issue in data input as long as I touch at the area where the key is supposed to be.
I am running stock V1 unrooted ROM.
I took it to the MMx service center and was told that the display is broken and needs to be replaced at a cost of Rs.2200/-. Fortunately I have insurance from univercell and I went to them, they say it's a warranty issue.
I showed it to a technician at Nokia care and was told it's a display problem and should be covered under warranty.
Now I am confused. Should I just pay up and get it fixed or should I talk to the MMx service center to do it under warranty?
Quick suggestions would be helpful.
if
Display is broken.its.a major issue it's not under warranty so.it's better to buy new display from.service center n don't buy displays from local market
Is it not covered by insurance then?
Am being refused by both.
This is india guys...
So you need to be very rude and harsh in order to get uour work done.
If u have bought ur fone 6 months ago or later and hoping that it was nt damaged by water or any hit or fall den it has to be repaired by service centre.in case it was damaged accidentally by u den it should be covered under d insurance.
My friend's canvas 2 had d same problem a month ago and was simply repaired free by service centre.
But acc to ur discription i think that it could be a software fault also.so first try flashing a new software prefferably official stock jb via sp flash tools.....dont worry it wont void ur warranty.
If needed any assistance in flashing the stock jb rom then u can private msg me; i have flashed it about 3-4 times or more

It is not a software problem. I was on JB 4.1.1. Reflashed it with CWM JB. and finally ICS V1 with SP tools before going to service center. Plus the problem was in boot screen itself.
There was another guy in the service center with the same problem. His was done under warranty as his was A100. Apparently the same problem in A110 is not covered.
Now touch screen has become erratic. Totally stopped working on sunday and monday, including recovery. Then has become erratic. went to service center and was told I have to deposit the phone with them. It will take 25-30 working days for them to return it. I came away. Should I give it for service or just use it as long as it still works?
Acc to me go to service centre b4 the position becomes worst.
Well vat did the service centre guys said??
He told me to leave the phone and go. He will contact me in 25 - 30 working days.
So give them as i guess dat u have tried a lot to get ur fone alright..
Rest depends dat if u can live without ur fone for a month:beer:

Further problems. Touch was working intermittently. Whenever it was cold or damp, touch would become unresponsive. After restarting for a few times, or on exposing to sunlight for 10-15 mins it would correct itself.
I took it to the service center today and they fixed it so that no touch works. Now I'll have to send it under warranty and it will take 25-30 working days.

I think a lot of people have the same problem. That's why such a simple problem like replacing the digitizer will take 20 days.
Canvas 2 touch gone mad, it itself do anything (looks like it is over sensitive and the air touches it) it randomly starts doing anything
yesterday night as the battery was low i thought to put it off and i turned it off (very hard to turn it off as it touched anything) and at the day i found some sound coming from mobile (the selection sound was on from the sound profile) then i saw it was doing sms and the keyboard was swiftkey it was swypeing all around (has ghosts are doing it)
Plz help
Tried different rom but it was all around and in recovery also the touch sometimes stop responding (TWRP)
[Solved]
Shown it to the Service Center and replaced the touch screen...[Solved]
Hey try flashing cwm recovery as it is not touch sensitive i.e. u have to use ur volume keys and power key to operate it.
Then flash other custom roms and if nothing happens u can flash stock rom via sp flash tools to get ur warranty back. Then u can get it repaired via service centre.:thumbup:

Don't charge ur mobile near television set...
Never Charge your mobile near television or any electronic device which having producing ecectro-magnetic radiation, which is strong near by this devices.... I got same problem, then i observed that this happens whenever i repeatedly charge my phone nearby my television. Then i stop doing this. I switched off my phone, took battery out kept it like this for 3-4 hours. then switched on. it showed very little ghost touches at first. after 1 days of using phone without charging near by television, GHOST TOUCH completely dissapeared, Since then(2 months) i didn't experienced such Ghost Touches. Hope information may help.

exactly causes of electro-magnetic radiation..
I had a similar problem. I was told at the service center that it is because of sweat or water on the finger tips. After a few weeks display became corrupted. This was not covered under warranty and had to be paid for (Rs. 2200/-). Now 1 month after changing display, touch has become non responsive. This was happening in cold climes only(Bangalore) or when I spent the night in a A/C room. Used to correct itself on exposure to sunlight for 10-15 mins. Today I took it to the service center and he fixed it so that touch stopped working all together. Now I'll have to send it for replacement which will take 25-30 working days. Should never have bought Mmx. Cheap Chinese rebranded stuff.
did you finally get your device back from the service centre?
In how many days did they finally return your phone?
Yaa I got my phone after 28 days

Since the problem is not created by you, you shouldnt be charge anything. The phone also needs to be within the warranty period.
The same issue happened with my friend and his phone was under warranty. He was not charged anything. However he go the phone after 47 days.

@Killer.shubham i think 2 things you should never do, keep the phone close to television, fridge or microwave, it can misbehave. Always use an original charger if possible, those chinese ones can cause this, i have had the same problem with my Blackberry. That dup charger used to even charge faster but later on when i realised what damage it was doing, i stopped using it.

I would like to add my observation.
I have seen this behaviour particularly while charging my handset in a railway coach.
So I have to switch-off my handset while charging.
I bought the smartphone about 10 months back, so it is very much in the warranty period.
Recently, the phone started showing some problems. It responds to touches that are not even made.
It is very hard to explain.
Say an invisible man using your phone and all you see is the screen responding to his touches!
Please reply asap.
i have heard the service centers don't pay heed to your problems. is that, by any chance, true?

this usually happens when you use a bad battery or a local charger for long time, if you are not using mmx charger then try charging your device via pc, this might solve the problem after some time, but the best thing is claim the warrenty

Bad charger or Moisture
Bad Charger or moisture could be the culprit. You can try USB charging for some time say 5 days to solve the bad charger problem. For the moisture problem i always do this. I put the phone without battery and opened in a bag of raw rice. and then reassemble it in after a few hours. This can be done for wet phone also, i mean say u got drenched in rain with the phone in your pocket. so its better to do this before switching on the phone. I am told it takes care of static current if any.
