So first off the app search function sucks...
Has anyone had a problem where the screen suddenly becomes unresponsive to touch? I can turn the screen on and off just fine with the power button but can't actually unlock it since it doesn't recognize my finger touching the screen. Only way to fix it was to do a battery pull.
I'm also on Eagles Blood with the latest Franco kernel.
I've never experienced this problem. I've run Codename Android, Redemption Rom, and currently on AOKP. I've used Leankernel, Defiant kernel and am currently using Faux123's kernel. As far as the app search function I can't concur because I've never used it.

To answer your question: No.
Was the phone plugged in when it was unresponsive?

i have the same experience, once in a while,
if you have patience, if you wait like 5-10 mins later, it will be responsive again.
I had the unresponsive screen when I turned the screen on to unlock but I couldn't draw my unlock pattern. Closed and opened the screen using power button twice and it was working again. I've also noticed that sometimes the screen doesn't register touches soon after turning it on. Have to always redraw my pattern because first bit is missed off.

Same here. Very annoying. Is there a fix yet?
I had this problem once since having the phone in November. I did do a battery pull but its good to know you can wait 5-10 minutes.
Also stock phone 4.0.2 ota so its happening on unrooted phones as well.

There is said to be a multi touch issue with the galaxy Nexus, I have experienced it myself. There is not a fix that I know of for the issue yet.

Hello,
On about 3 or 4 occasions I've gone to unlock my phone with my face and its failed so I've gone to pattern unlock as fail safe only to notice that the screen is unresponsive. No matter what I try it just doesn't respond. A reboot fixes this.
Has anyone else noticed this? Its not like the other touchscreen issues where it seems multi touch related, it does nothing.
Once time I managed to unlock it with my face realising the issue and I found the touchscreen still didn't work even when unlocked.

yes.. happened to me couple of times, but after i upgraded tp 4.0.2 from official google's image there are no problems..
it happened to me after i speak on my phone for a long time anf switch off the screen and switch it back up again.
but no problem now
Glad to hear its not just me then. It does seem a software bug.

I posted in another thread suspecting it was Juice Defender but after uninstalling it i got the error one more time. I still haven't done a factory reset to check if it's still there, though.
How do you guys reboot when the screen becomes unresponsive? Do you just hold the power button in until it turns off/reboots? It seems like it's worked for me but only maybe 3/5 times.
I just pull the battery out.

I can confirm this problem.
I'm on 4.0.2 stock Google build, no juicedefender.
Only happens on lock pattern.

If you set face unlock, you can unlock and find it still doesn't respond.

I'm running stock 4.0.2 and I have this problem a fair bit. I use a numeric password unlock, and whenever it freezes I just wait a few minutes and the screen becomes responsive again. Very annoying though. I hope this issue is resolved soon.
I've not had any issues for a while. The odd random reboot but no screen freezes anymore.

occurred on 4.0.4
occurred on GSM version running 4.0.4. received an call and could not attend, I don't use any lock pattern. last thing I did before this occurred was to install call filter, not sure if that caused the issue.
I had this problem on my vzw nexus. It just started happening more and more to the point that I had to hard reset to get it to work. The problem never went away so I got it replaced. Then had the replacement replaced due to unrelated screen color issues.

I've been running the aokp since build 1 and i haven't switched back to gb or ics since i think it's a huge difference from both. I like it a lot, it's very smooth, the flicker can be get rid of by choosing a few options in settings like disable hw overlay, which completely gets rid of the flicker for me. I don't use google now but the search works yeah. I get random reboots and either pull the battery or wait a few seconds and then hold down the power button until it restarts, but it doesn't bother me as much it rarely happens at important times, usually it happens after i lock the phone and put it in my pocket. Also it freezes sometimes too but not too often.

I've been using AOKP as a DD for a while now I love it. I would suggest flashing the newest nightly (9-18). It's all about preference with ROMs, I love all the ways to customize AOKP.
It's like I tell everyone though, just flash it and test it out for yourself. Always make a nandroid just incase if you don't like it you can always flash back... no harm no foul. Ever since JB leaks I haven't gone back to anything else.
You won't be disappointed. Just follow the instructions and read up on the threads before posting questions/problems because if you experience an issue chances are other people have as well and there's a fix.
Have fun!!!

Reflash... sometimes these things happen don't sweat it your phone isn't broke. I flashed an earlier build 5 or 6 times until it worked correctly.
If at first you don't succeed.....
I've just switched to ericwill's CM10 build from AOKP due to SOD issues and battery life issues.
No RR or SOD yet and greatly improved battery life so far. Been running for about 18 hours.
As a side note, I much prefer AOKP for its customization, but I'll take stability over customization any day.
Of course, YMMV.

I ran CM10 09_17 and AOKP 09_18 got RR on both and SOD on CM10, then i tried Paranoid 2.13(CM10) and its been great!! atm am on 26hrs uptime with no issues.
I've run BinaryBishops, AOKP, CM10, and now Paranoid 2.13 which I've been running around 27-28 hours uptime. Only one I haven't experienced any reboots or sod or any of the like was Binarys' but Paranoid is the smoothest by far. Camera, music, keyboard all super responsive, no lag I've noticed at all. Running stock Trebuchet and haven't gutted it like I normally would, delete what I don't use and the like. Binarys night lies seem to be on hold for whatever reason

I can't help you, but I'm just letting you know you're not alone. Mine did that a couple of times when I was on some CM 10.1 nightlies. The phone would just shut off. I thought maybe it was just a SOD on black screen, but one time I caught it flash the Samsung logo, and then shut off. I had to press and hold the power button to turn it back on. Strange indeed. I don't know what caused it, but I would like to know. I use my phone as my alarm, and if it would shut off during the night that would not be good for the morning.
You'd get much more input if you were on a Rom on xda.
This is why I won't use a few roms....jellybam, carbon....at least until there is a dev thread on it....and a couple others.
Just my two cents!

It can be the software or the hardware. My phone keeps rebooting even though I reverted back to stock.

I have a heck of a time getting the device to turn on using the power button. It's as if the button is recessed a bit...it's hard to press in an awkward place.
Also, I've left the device a few times for long stretches to find that I need to boot it up to turn it on. It powered completely down on its own.
I love it, though; definitely not disappointed.

This happened to me today, not sure if it's a symptom of a defective device or just a software bug
Picked mine up this morning. I've seen 3 random reboots with it in my hand today. It had also turned itself off once while in my bag and required a long press to boot back up. For now I'm chalking it up to 4.3 still being in its infancy.
Luckily it reboots really fast!

Yeah mine reboots here and there on it own. Also I don't like the way that if you're playing a game sometimes and have to listen or read a but of dialogue. The screen auto shutoff will still turn off.......

I had mine next to my bed last night and for some reason when I looked over at the Nexus 7, the screen was "on" but nothing was being displayed. It would not respond to anything. I held down the power button and went to bed.
Now it won't boot at all past the Nexus logo screen! I haven't tried rooting it or anything (I do have BusyBox and SuperSU installed from my previous Nexus 7, but without the bootloader being unlocked or root it shouldn't do anything, right?).
Been waiting for 20 minutes and it's stuck at the Nexus logo screen...
I have a similar issue where upon waking the device in the morning it will reboot. The odd thing it usually doesn't do it right away, but up to a minute afterwards.
Very odd.
No random rebots <knock on wood> but I do find it difficult to find and press the power button without sometimes turning the device to see what I am doing.
Does anyone have their tablet freeze randomly for a bit, and make it unresponsive for a while (few seconds)?
Or is this the touch screen issue everyone is talking about?
Occasionally, but then again, my first n7 does this loads, as well as my phone, probably an android problem Tbf, every device I've used, including apple products have occasional few seconds of hold ups

Use Chrome Beta as your default and just disable Chrome Stable. It doesn't happen on the Beta builds at all. The most recent Chrome Stable update has an issue within it.
yes this happens, and even turning the screen off won't register. it's a system wide freeze, not a touch screen issue.

yeah exactly my problem.
For me, the freezing occurs while I am using a browser such as dolphin or Chrome.
The devs in the Nexus 4 section have decided it has to do with the JSS build of 4.3 which is what we have as stock. Its not device specific and looks to be a big problem.
