Whenever i flash any rom even my stock also. my phone has started giving haptic feedback. screen start shaking and screen gets touched by itself 3-4 times. even sometime my mic gets closed.the person on other side are not able to hear my voice so then i have to turn off the screen and then trun it on to make it normal WTF is this..!!.. i am getting this problem since 4 days.
i need solution please. i have green lense defy.
Do you wipe data/factory reset after flash?
Sounds like rain or wet finger. If you have sweaty hand, it is already possible that your touchscreen I'd doing weird because of water.
even my 2 month old Defy+ shows same problem sometimes...
if i blow air near earphone, this happens for sure...i guess the touchscreen sensor/controller & its cables are somehow affected by it...
still i assure u water does not enter inside from sides of the screen..
i think its probably due to wet/sweaty fingers...

The touchscreen just stopped working on my Tilt 2 today (stock ROM), for no reason. The phone wasn't dropped or mishandled and I hadn't added any software or changed anything in the last few weeks. When I picked it up, it was on the WinMo Start screen and I couldn't press any icons on the screen. I soft reset it using the stylus and the reset button, but the same thing happened. I did a hard reset as well, but the screen wouldn't respond.
Does anyone have any ideas? Hardware failure? AT&T is sending me a warranty replacement so I'm stuck using an old unlocked RAZR for a few days. It's pretty disappointing that such an expensive phone would just stop working.
Same thing has happened to me. It has been happening a few times lately and a reboot fixes it.
Now it seems it is permananent. I'm going to try to flash a new ROM and see if it's software related.
I had a similar problem.. although the touchscreen wasn't unresponsive, it just responded/registered touches in the wrong places!!
Sometimes after about 3-4 hours (from a reboot) it starts working normally, other times now. Tried hard reset but that didn't improve anything.
There's a slight possibility I used it in the rain a couple of times too much, so possible water damage?
The moisture detector has gone pink on the phone (a small sticker on the inside that turns from white to pink whenever detects moisure, which HTC use to refuse warranty replacements from what I've read) but that was probably pink from a long time ago anyway.
Last night I was out and during the night I pulled my desire z out of my pocket to find that the screen was dead, the soft touch buttons were still lit up and working but no display. I pulled the battery and tried to reboot and no luck, you can hear it booting and even unlock/receive calls and txts etc once it has booted up just the screen stays blank the whole time so have to do everything on feel.
Essentially does this just mean my screen has a hardware fault? is it worth trying to fix? I assume the only option would be to purchase a replacement screen and dissemble and reassemble it?
(warranty is not worth it as I live in New Zealand and would have to send my phone back to the UK where I bought it from, also I have dropped it quite a few times so probably voided anyway...)
Thanks in advance for any input
Does it never display anything? So not even a flash during boot or something?
Because then it is probably a hardware problem.
Since the soft touch buttons do still work I think there might be a little crack or something in the flat cable that connects the bottom half with the top.
Maybe you could check whether you can see if the cable is broken or not?
The best thing to do then is to look for a replacement and try to fix it yourself or bring it to a shop where they can do it for you.
No it never displays anything, completely dead the whole time. The touch input is still working though as I answered a phone call this morning on it by making the usual gesture just without being able to see anything. Doesnt seem to be anything wrong with the cable itself as far as I can see. Yea might have to get someone to have a look at it.
My phone is acting the same. I dropped my phone in the pond before, but pulled battery out on time and had it in rice for a day. My phone was still working for about two weeks after that incident. I dropped it and had one little crack at the top of the screen and about a week after that it died when I had a water balloon fight with the phone in my pocket. D;
Do any of you know if the replacement lcd screen/digitizer for the Desire Z would work for the G2?
I had the same thing happening to my G2 screen, only it was intermittently working for a little while, then just completely died and wouldn't work. It was doing this crazy flickering thing then the back light wouldn't go on at all. If I held the phone at a certain angle in the sun, I could see that the pixels were indeed working on the display, but there was no backlight to make them normally visible.
So I purchased a replacement screen from ebay and carefully followed the directions on a youtube video for a G2 take apart. Its not a hard task to take apart and get down to the screen itself. It was rather easy. After putting it back together the screen still didn't work! Sounds work, i can also receive calls etc. But the screen still doesn't work!
Is there any way that this could be a software issue?
Oh and PS, I believe the LCD replacement would work for both the desire Z and the G2. They are identical phones after all right? I'd say its a safe bet. The screen I bought was only 35 bucks. Didn't think that was a bad deal.
Another dead screen or something else?
Few days ago my phone fell of the couch onto a rug - no big deal, so far it has survived much worse, but when I picked it up, the colors were all messed up - overly green and red. Tried restarting - no luck. Everything worked fine, except the colors, but then the screen turned of completely. I could hear notifications, phonecalls, but the screen was dead. After some tapping on the screen, it turned on again - with ****ed up colors. Then started flickering and was gone again. Few more times I could turn it on by tapping before it was dead for good.
Figured, after all these drops it survived, maybe the screen connector is a bit loose. I mean, I could sometime get a contact when tapping it, so I dissasambled it completely, secured all the connection, put it all back tougether and fired up - same thing: dead screen, phone working.
Has anyone had such problem before? Is it screen that is dead, or connector or... I have no clue... I would like try to fix it on my own, with some replacement parts I could get on ebay - but, what gave?
Anyone else getting the ghost touch problem?
I couldn't work out what was causing this on my phone so I enabled show touches in the development menu and it shows.
It goes from 2 to 3 spots on the left hand side of the screen.
It's not a major problem but happens at least 3 times a day and won't snap out of it unless I put the phone back into sleep a couple of times.
Do you think maybe scratches on the screen cause this?
TIA
Is your phone connected to a charger when this occurs? It might be it, since im experiencing the same thing since htc desire hd.

No. Can happen at anytime. Quite random.
It takes a few on and offs with the sleep button to stop it.
Can't get off the lock screen until it goes away because I can't move the unlock slider.
Very annoying.
I had the same problem - the first day i got my hox. With and without the charger (with charger a litte bit more often i think).
I pushed the complete left side of the screen (top) carefully and now it works well. No more ghost touches ^^.

Ok. Once I pushed around the screen edges, the left side has some play and moves maybe a mm with a slight creak.
I push it in but still that little bit of play on the left side.
It's quite impossible to show the service centre the problem because its so random but now I can show them this.
Cheers.
I hope you'll get a new "perfect" hox and i'll not have the same problem later :fingers-crossed:
Hi guys. I know many of you have had touchscreen problems and whatnot, i searched but it seems like this one is a bit different from usual. Yesterday the phone was totally fine; i woke up this morning and it had a lot of touchscreen problems: at first it registered touches without me doing anything, but after a couple of reboots it was just unresponsive. After another reboot and some messagging, the problem reduced to a strip on the screen simply not working. The strip is located exactly where the first notification on the status bar is (like when you receive a message and you click on that notification). I have the trueancestor stats bar buttons, so that zone is a tad more down than usual. Anyway, all I did yesterday was a quick game. I think it may be the flex cable not working because of the sliding, but it happened all of a sudden, not gradually. I must say that some weeks ago I had the same "registers touches by itself" issue when typing, but a simple reboot was enough. I tried doing factory reset, but nothing so far. Also I can't use pc companion to flash everything stock back (I unlocked bootloader months ago, even though I relocked it; I dunno if it's locked or not right now), and I can't seem to find a working flashtool download link -_-. I don't think that would help much, it probably is a hardware problem, but who knows. I'm on true ancestor 1.6 LE, stock kernel.
Any help would be great, as I fear the phone will get refused in assistance because of bootloader unlocking.
Did your phone had contact with water? When my screen had contact with water it registered touches randomly.
it didn't. it has a screen protector anyway; but that's not the problem for sure. it doesn't register randomly, simply a strip doesn't work now...
Hardware problem. Could be flex cable or digitizer.
Today there were two moments it began to work again, but a few minutes after each one the problem came back. Sigh...
Mine does that when the screen is moist or my hands are too oily. Are you sure you're working in a dry environment?
mhh... exactly that? I dunno, my hands are dry and i think the screen is too; it has a quite thick screen protector (the skinomi one), so even if it got moist that shouldn't be a problem, right? I'm now living in a different town and that may have changed something, but the problem didn't show up until now, and it was sudden.
Also, I noticed that using gamekeyboard on a certain profile I had buttons placed on the strip, and pressing hardware keys mapped to those buttons actually works. This restricts the problem just to the actual finger-touch-detecting mechanism. Does anyone know anything about this?
Edit: lol I heated the phone up a bit with a hair dryer. It works now. I hope it will last and I'll not have to do this again over and over
Hi, after I've spoiled a little bit of water over my LG K10, (LGK420N) , my screen started flickering and now it's most of the times black,.
I can't get in my phone, because i can't see my normal screens anymore.
It is still working fine further, i recieve messages and makes noise, only I can't see them.
What can I do to recover my LG K10 again,
I can't get into the download or recovery mode because i can't see a thing.
Thanks in advance !
Dead screen probably
I solved this disassembling(with stopped phone and without battery ) the phone and clearing small green oxide near the rear speaker with ear bud and acetone, was a very little thing in my case but was worked, and previously, with hair dryer (some minutes).
you need to remove the antena protector tho acces to the zone thath i say.
