no respond from touch screen

Hi, for the past two days, I have been having issue with occassional lack of response from the touch screen. Whenever I pressed the power button for a few seconds, I got a list of options: power off, data network mode, flight mode, restart. However, there was no respond when　I touched he screen. I just pressed the power button slightly, went somewhere, tried again and the device resumed to normal. what is happening? is there a way to fix this issue without rooting ?

You are without a doubt the unluckiest user I've ever me. Is there anything on our device that does work?!
Mine does sometimes lose touch responsiveness. The pen still works, but touch does nothing. A reboot usually does the trick.

it was working nicely but suddenly I got maps has stopped, follwed by andoid system has stopped message. Then, on the past two days, lost touch screen response. Not sure if the following are related o my problems. 1. I use iBalls as protector of the corners for about a week. Yesterday, not two days ago, I joined the Japanese docom mobile phone services. They made some changes in the settings to allow me to use their 4g and wifi and phone networks. After that, I lost touch screen response more often than two days ago. Is doing a factory reset a good way to solve the problems? I recall that there were two firmware updates.

Well, if one of the corner balls touches the screen, that could kill the responsiveness.
As for the changes they made, those were probably the APN settings. They're required to use the internet and vary per provider. Pull out the SIM, see if that makes a difference.
A factory reset usually solves system errors.

I recall that they did some APN settings. They also set up the Mail connection. Before factory reset, is backing up using keis the best way? I don't kow if keis also backup whatever that have been causing the issues.
The balls just slightly touch the corners sometimes. Do you mean if by chance more than one ball touches a corner, this could confuse the system and cause a lack of respond? Sometimes even there were lots Of battery power, the system did not wake from sleep. It was like there were no power. I had to put the device away and waited for awhile before I could use the device again.

Any backup brings the risk of backing up the issue as well.
I recommend using Helium, back up only the app data you can't live without, do the rest manually and start with a clean device.
And yes, I did notice that if something is constantly pressing the screen, it gets confused sometimes. I had it happen with (you can laugh) my cat, she had her paw on the screen, messed the whole control up.

Well, what apps or games do you not want to lose the data of? Is there a game whose progress took you months to achieve, things like that.S Note and the like can all be synced through your Samsung account, by the way.

Thanks. Will Samsung's software also backup the mails from the mopera email account I got from my phone provider?
Not sure if this is related. I did not use the iBall protector yesterday and there was no problem with the touch screen's responsiveness.

I don't know, I never use KIES.
Test it without the balls for a few more days, if the problem doesn't come back, you've found the culprit.

I've had this happen to mine a couple of times, the hardware buttons still works (even the capacitative ones) but the screens refuses to do anything. The first time it happened was when a small droplet water landed on the screen, and the second time is still a mystery, but a restart solved the problem both times so I suspect it was something I did rather than any hardware issues... Having said that this hadn't happened on any other device I've owned.

Problem - touchscreen not working properly sometimes

Hi all,
I have this annoying problem that occurs ones a day or twice and I have to restart the phone because of it.
Sometimes for no reason in different apps when I type or even use the touchscreen I have this annoying bug that the phone presses the screen few times when I press it just ones, for example when I try to type something it presses the letter 5 times instead of ones and its practically unusable untill I restart the phone.
Any one had this problem before? Any ideas if there is a way to fix it?
I am using the stock is, with Google launcher on top bu this happened even before I used the Google launcher. All stock here and I am using the 16gb eu variant of the phone
Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions

Have you try it factory reset?

No, nothing like that yet to be honest

Seems my huawei ascend mate is having same issue, Have you managed to solve the issue. Share so that I also can try..?

I don't have this problem with my HAM7, though I did previously experience it with an old Sony Xperia. Like you mentioned a reboot temporarily fixed the issue but I had to ultimately do a factory reset to rid the phone of this annoying bug.
Quick question: are you using the original charger that came with the phone? That was another thing that I noticed with my Sony. Its stock charger had died and I replaced it with a cheap third-party one found in the Chinatown of my city. This seemed to trigger this bug, and also caused screen taps to register way off compared to where I physically tapped the screen. This continued until after the factory reset, but still happened when the phone was on charge.
TLDR: Do a factory reset. If that doesn't help it'll probably be a hardware issue.
Hope this helps otherwise good luck!

Ok , listen
when this happens
go to settings , manage aps ,running apps .. then force close FB messenger .. it will be solved that's a bug in fb messenger. u will c

Why does my Google Pixel randomly reboot?

Hi. My device worked just perfect until 5 days ago. It slowly began to ignore some tasks like opening apps or doing calls.
2 days ago my google pixel with Android 8.0 started to ignore every input i made, like opening apps or trying to reboot. It behaving like this after taking some pictures with the rear cam. After some attepts in opening apps it started to reboot. But instead of a normal reboot it stuck in a booting screen (the one with the Google G and a gray animation bar underneath). It took a while and i waited until it seemed that the OS booted correctly. But after this my device started to reboot randomly after a few minutes. After a while i figured out, that i can hold the power button while the screen with the google G was up to reboot it normally. This worked so that the phone was at least half an hour or more working until it rebooted again out of nowhere.
So far i tried to get it in safe mode and delete some apps like whatts app etc. In safe mode i didnt notice any crashes so far.... but in normal one it does a lot so deleting apps wasnt helpful. Turning on flight mode was not helpful either.
What can I do? What could it be?

Same thing happens with my Pixel, sometimes the phone is just get stuck on some random screen then I have to press and hold it for 15 seconds to let it reboot again. Lately I have started to see another problem, when it reboots bunch of google apps and services stops working and gives hell lot of notifications. All this started to happen after Android Oreo update

I noticed problems with my ear speaker as well. And i cant make phone calls. The phone doent respond anymore when i try to.

Same problem after android 8.0 update

If you have installed the latest Google phone/dialer app, that is likely the problem, was for me.
Find the app in settings and uninstall,it will roll back to a previous version and hopefully fix your issues.

My pixel does the same thing, ever since I updated to 8.0, have you tried doing a factory reset? I haven't done it yet, I have been uninstalling apps for the last couple of days, when it is in safe mode it works good, but when it's not, it freezes and restarts. I'm going to try uninstalling the latest version on google dialer to see if it helps.

I just want to update everyone in case you are having a problem with the random reboots.
I uninstalled the phone update and it was still randomly rebooting so I backed up the stuff that I needed and just did a factory reset. I have been a full day on my phone without any problems. I did a factory reset twice, just in case, for some crazy reason, the phone still had a problem, I wiped it twice! I think you'll be good with only wiping once.
Anyways to sum it all up, I did a factory reset, restored all of my backed up data from my pixel, I had about 120 apps and the phone has not had a problem since. I hope it helps someone else.

Mate, please report if you're still getting the reboots. Mine disappear for two weeks after I do a factory reset and then come back. Same happens in Safe Mode. Bug report claims it's 'Sense Key : Hardware Error [current]' and Google rep says it's a hardware issue (Toshiba's memory or something). Buganiser thread is here.

wrong place sry

Had this on my pixel xl. I was on the 8.1 beta.
factory reset, rolled back to 8.0
8.1 ota official
haven't had a reboot in over a week now

Yea, the issue is back, has been for about 2 weeks. This phone is really starting to be a pain in the ass, I can't believe that it happens so often. Did you do a warranty fix?

That's a pity. Yes, I did. Got the device roughly two and a half weeks ago. Flashed 8.0 and then sideloaded 8.1 right away. Knock on wood, all good. But there's still a report every other day in Buganiser of a phone even on 8.1 doing this.

Got mine at release. November 16. Google won't replace it either. I have a one pixel brick

I have the same problem. However, it is not frequent enough on Android P beta. But as soon as I go back to the stable build, it starts to do the same thing. Did you guys have any luck resolving this or should I send it back to the vendor I bought it from. They won't replace the device in Pakistan but may be will fix it in some manner.

Pocophone F2 Pro constantly hangs up or freezes.

I just purchased my Poco f2 Pro and have been using it for 4 days now. On my 2nd day, the phone suddenly hangs up and freezes when i turned on the ultra savings modr. I force reboot it and it worked fine. The next day, random things triggers the freeze such as screenshotting or even fingerprint scanning. Nothing fixes it since it wouldnt respond to anything and i end up always rebooting it. This time, the one handed mode stopped working too. I already did a factory reset and it still freezes. Does anyone experience the same thing? How to fix this?

Yes bro..I faced it when I tried to login multiple times on my edu mail..I don't know but I thought Android policy is suck..I faced 3 problem and it's their software fault..I ended up going shop wiped out my data and it's 6th day for me..I faced it on 3rd day.. this miui 12 has lot of bugs

No lag till now.

Mine constantly reboot itself and says "find device closed unexpectedly". Cant update miui as it always fails, factory reset doesnt really help

How to fix this? Still get random freezes with different triggers. Performed factory reset thrice and still hangs up even though there arent any third party apps. One hand mode stopped working too. I just bought my phone and i experienced these problems. I get system ui not responding all the time then it restarts by itself.

Strange Reboot/Bootloop on Stock Nord

Hi,
I experienced for the second time some strange incident on my OP Nord (eu). When I looked on my phone it had this OP Bootupscreen with the one red and two white moving Dots but it didnt start up. The dots where moving for about 15 minutes. I had to press Vol up + on/off button to shut down the Phone and then Start it again to get it up and running again.
The first Time I was in the Car listening to some music. The Phone was via BT to the Car Radio connected and played Music with the app Musicolet. After a short stop at a store it didnt connect again with the radio. I had a look on the Nord and saw this issue the first time.
The second time, I used it with some messaging apps, placed it on my desk, wanted to use it around 10 minutes later again and had this Bootup Failure a second time.
Had anybody of you some simlar Problem? Or maybe an Idea what could be wrong?
The Nord is not rooted or manipulated in any other way. Just standard Phone with the Latest OP Updates installed.
Kind Regards

Yes I had the same problem. I had to use Vol up + on/off button aswell, but it worked again after that. I just had it in my pocket and didnt do anything and when I put it out of my pocket I had the bootlogo as well. Strangely I had this also the second time as you said.

Random reboot force restart
Same to me 12gb version about 5th time now this has happened.. As other members say. You only notice it if your looking for at the screen. Had to do same it booted up into safe mode 1st. Have have seen on the Oneplus forums that some phone auto goto factory reset lucky that hasn't done that for me. However it does make you choose your default Internet search engine each time and my Google one account resets again... Anyone any idea of the cause any Dev / programmer's on here know the cause yet. As you all say its random done it to me while in pocket car and work desk.. Bloody annoying

Yes! Same problem here.
Strange auto reboot and gets stuck after connecting bluetooth sometimes, or while just simply decreasing volume . Screen goes unresponsive many times while using Google chrome and handling media on whatsapp. Mobile data and wifi would take 10-20 secs to turn on sometimes, don't know why!
DAMN! THIS PHONE HAS A TON OF BUGS THAT INTERFERE WITH DAY-TO-DAY TASKS!

Happened to me once too

Happened to me too a couple of times on EU firmware.

On the forum it's been madness with this , they issued a statement that they are full on it . But there were some users suggesting that it was caused by the forgot password option , and if pattern was used there was no problem. This though , was not confirmed. I have the phone about a week , i've been using pattern since my first android . Nothing has happened to me . Did anyone of you use pattern ? Or everyone had a password/ PIN ? If so , try using pattern lock to see if it happens again...maybe it could be a chance to pinpoint the root of it and save other users...

It happened 2 times when I used face unlock. I stopped using a locking method and no random reboots since, but there was also updates recently so dunno...

Happened twice
