hey...
lately i hve been noticing that the bottom part (while phone is held vertical) of my defy's touchscreen is not working like i can't select settings button in latest edition of camera360 or delete icon in quickpic..!
so can somebody test these apps with their defy.... nd suggest me how to test my touchscreen??
try touch screen test apps such as Multitouch visbile test, search in the Android market.
tried touch test....encountering problem there also
so i guess would have to take it for warranty!!
i guess... it could be a digitizer problem...
actually m still confused whether its a touchscreen problem or not bcoz the problematic part seems to be just 4mm above capacitive buttons!!
just tell me are u able to close android's standard notification panel using touch in stock froyo??
Are you resolve this problem?!
My Defy have this problem too...
Hey guys,
My Defy had the same problem a few weeks ago but on the left part of the screen caused by condensed water.
I sent it to the repairing company in Germany and the device got a new screen. Now it is working again .
The repairing was for free due to warranty.
I hope I could help and sorry for my bad English ;-)
is there any other way to fix that problem ? i had similar problem, part of the top of my touch screen doesn't respond. i'm little bit confused if this problem caused by condensed water. defy supposed to be a water resistant right?

water resistant but not water proof!
My defy spaz's out any time rain drops are on the screen or even if my finger is wet or overly sweaty
so i'ts true about digitizer ? there's no other way except to replace the digitizer with the new one ?
any software fix like using other ROM?

Hi all (",) i just have exactly é same problem as Mr. ohyeach (top portion only not responding). As my Defy warranty is over, other than hardware fix, could there be any other way to fix it, like using another custom ROM? Thank you.

I have an HTC Desire Bravo and it suddenly developed this screen issue.
I uploaded images of the phone to my flickr. It seems that perhaps the lcd oil has leaked or maybe water has gotten in. I'm sure it was caused by pressure on the screen as the LED backlights are more visible round the sides now and the inside screen (LCD) seems curved outwards but the outside (digitizer/touchscreen) doesnt seem bent. anyway here's the links to my pictures, If anyone finds a way to fix it without sending it off to get a new screen please let us know!

In order to fox the screen yourself it literally requires you take take apart the ENTIRE phone from back to front. I'm sure you can find a guide on Google, but you'd be really putting your phone at risk if you haven't got any experience with this.
You can't fix this yourself.. needs to be sent for repair, you'll only make it worse mate

I kinda figured. I was hoping to see if it was possible to open the phone and just blow air between the screen and digitizer.. that way i could theoretically pop them apart with like a bit of surgical tubing and an industrial strength blower.
But if the screen isnt connected with a ribbon and is just silicon stuck on then i'm not doing it. HATE that silicon ****.
Oh and thanks bortak
I had the same problem on my Samsung jet. It's a LCD leak. U can fix it ur self but it is very complicated and requires you to dissassemble your phone ..

My touchscreen on the htc desire Z has stopped working, but buttons, trackpad and screen works. Is there any way to find out wich part is broken?
I´ve taken it apart and the ribboncable LOOKS Ok, but i dont know.
The screen has som marks on it.
When the problem startet, it stopped working sometimes when i had the keyboard out, so my guess its the ribboncable
any help?
Is there anyway to check this on my own?
trial and error? i have a spare (and am having a similar issue) im about to replace my ribbon with the one i know is good, if this dosent work ill get a new digitizer. of course my experience wont necessarily be the same for you. but ill say i bought a g2 off ebay that only the bottom half of the digitizer worked, zero from the middle of the screen up. all the soft buttons were fine and there was no marks on the screen. a new digitizer fixed that.

I had to buy a ribboncable from ebay but the shippingcost is 39usd... Thats why i don´t want to buy both the digitizer and ribbon because i cant fint anyone who has both :/
but i hope its the ribboncable, it has to be when the screen stopped working when i used the keyboard, and worked again when i closed it. right?
Hello again, i changed the ribboncable, and it all worked
BUT.
I had to open it again because the flash stopped working, and the second time i opened it, i broke these ribboncables for the keyboard.

Hi the centre of my screen has decided to stop working?!?!
I think it may be
Screen
Screen connection
Software related (I doubt)
I have used a touch screen app to show where its stopped working. Any one else had this problem?

Hi!
I have exact the same problem! After I spilled a little bit of water on my phone this part stopped working..
It is an hardware failure.
This all happened a few months ago, and it's annoying, but I can live with it. If you have to touch this exact part, you can rotate the screen to landscape mode and click the part you want to touch.

That's good to no never thought to rotate the screen! Thanks for that I havent dropped or spilt anything on my screen so I have no idea how it happened its a bit annoying.

Hi friend..... your motherboard would have to be changed or the digitizer. Had the exact same issue. If it is under warranty then replace asap....if not ...its costly.... Mine was fixed under warranty.
This was some known issue I believe last year, then it went quiet.
Regards.

Sorry for digging up this old thread, but I'm having this issue 2 times 1 a row. The first time was at the beginning of this year, I sent it to repair under warranty. Everything works perfectly until yesterday, the problem came back again. Any tips or tricks on how to fix it without replacing any hardware? I have ran out of my warranty contract and my phone is rooted so it's gonna cost me if I send my phone to htc
Bump. I also have this issue with my HOX, I'll report back if I manage to fix it.
Since a few days my touchscreen is unresponsive on a ~ 1cm wide stripe on the left side of the screen. In a touchscreen tester app it looks like this:

I am pretty positive it is a hardware problem. Has anybody else experienced something similar and was able to fix it without HTC-Repair? Would hate to stock and relock and un-soff it .
Hi! Never experienced spmething like this on any device of mine, but i fear it's an hardware problem... Did you do any software change? Firmware update or similar? Have you tried another rom? Is your firmware up-to-date?

Anyone have same problem or have any idea how I can solve it?
Hi,
I think it definitely bad connection between screen and motherboard:
badly installed (I mean someone who installed touched touchscreen connecting pins with fingers) ... or ... oxide on touchscreen connecting pins ... or ... possible water damaged used screen (seen one analog case).
It's any possibility to repair connection if screen it's OK?
Anyone know smoething about two types screens in G3?
It's similiar to that problem :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DI64Bcf8OiE
which it's solved by: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52414185&postcount=122
Maybe changing kernel/soft will solve problem?
Hi,
Actually about software side I dont believe. I hope this used one was exactly same, what you had before. If I remember right, then LG didnt made different screens for G3 different models.
I remember that G2 had many problems with white lines after drop or screen change. Fix was easy, to add metal tape at display connector to antenna. To understand better about what ia talk you must read this link.
Anyway, I sill think your problem is hardware problem if on start it works normally.

In g3 it's any chance to solve that with metal tape? In g3 motherboard it's different so maybe tape can't help. Tomorrow I'll try one more time check lcd plug.
