My phone touchscreen is not working whenever the screen backlight went off and whenever the screen is lock. It again works for sometime after rebooting or flashing stock rom and the same problem starts again. I have also updated my touchscreen firmware but it doesn't solve the problem. Please help me. Please. Don't tell me to go to samsung care coz my warranty period is over and there is no samsung care centre at my place.. Otherwise, I have to say good bye to my Galaxy y from today. Please, please, please help me.

You have done everything that's i would have told you - flashed stock , updated touch screen fw !
And i can't tell you to go to ssc
Anyway lemme just get some answers first :
Did this problem begin all of a sudden at random or do you remember doing anything that could have caused it ?
Also you sure the digitizers are okay ? You on stock 'kernel' right ?

It happens suddenly. What do you mean by 'digitizers'? Yes, I am on stock kernel. Waiting...

Its too technical you can Google to know more - simply a digitizer is an interface that converts analogue inputs to digital ones - they are the main component of your capacitive or any other touch screen .
I know this because recently i had a similar touch screen problem but not entirely like yours as mine wasn't working at all no matter you reboot or lock - and i had to get the digitizer replaced to get things back to working

Google you'll fine plenty but make sure that its a digitizer problem before repairing ! Yours sound like some kind of bug to me as touch doesn't respond after back light goes off and works fine all other time .
Maybe someone else will have better solution wait
try that when u are on stock (rom, kernel, etc)...
just dont install any app...
try if for a time..
nd tell if the problem is still there
rooting is new for me...and i am noob to root...

Hi,
sometimes the touchscreen of my defy stops working (but the phone is not frozen)
and the only way to fix it is to lock/unlock the screen...
does anyone have the same problem (and can help me)?
thanks
P.S
i've had the problem both with stock rom (2.2) and with cyanogenmod rc 1.5
When this happens, do the 4 buttons below your display still give you haptic feedback (little vibration) or do they react not at all?
Also, does this only happen when there's the normal launcher/standby screen active or when there's an other app active too ?
Did you undervolt ?
Edit: Also, this seems to be a hardware problem which seems to be well known in a certain German android forum but I cannot find much about it in here. In short, the digitizer unit seems to be broken for some people and locking/unlocking helps because it disconnects and connects power for the digitizer. The people there fixed the problem by replacing the digitizer (which isn't easy at all!).
It would be nice to have someone from XDA who had this problem before too, to confirm this problem!
First of all, thank you for the answer
When I have the problem, 4 buttons stop working too.
It usually happens after a period of stand-by, i don't undervolt or have some other application running than the launcher (ADWlauncher).
I bought the phone one week ago, if it is an HW problem, i can't repair it by myself...
I'd recommend to wait and see whether xda has other suggestions for you and if not, just check the Motorola hotline and ask whether they know something and if they do change it for free.
Also, what you describe fits perfectly to what I've read elsewhere (don't know whether I'm allowed to post a link here or if it were useful at all because it is in German). So it sounds like your digitizer could really be defect.
ok, even if i hope to solve the problem by myself...
News: They've changed the touch screen, but the problem is still present...
Can it be a sw problem??
Keep sending it back, they will replace it in the end.

Yes, the whole phone. They have two year warranties, but don't put up or make do, you should have a phone that works right

I use to get that problem on stock and some versions of CM.
Was definitely a software problem for me, havent had that problem since I'm on nightlies.
I wonder when it happens ,are you charging?

What nightly version are you using?
The problem happens even if i'm not charging...
My sensors are good, this must be software related since it happened at the first boot of a new ROM.
Problem is, even if I flash stock firmware I have no luck making auto rotation and other motion features such as quick glance to work.
Anybody got an idea?
Anyone?

Are you Sure Your Sensors are Good.
Open The Phone & Apply Alcohol to the Sensor Connecting Strips ....

It must be software related.. When i flashed the leaked 4.3 it was fixed, but after a week stopped again

What apps are you using to test the errors... If they aren't compatible with the leaked 4.3 then that might be the issue? Also kernal compatibility might be what's throwing it off

Well i try to rotate the screen for starter's.. Calibration don't even respond to movement as the ball stays in the center. Gyroscope demanding apps such as flight games dont work. Its not 4.3 as 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 don't fix it either
Same problem since 2 months
i too have the same problem...
i guess i can say that i'm not a noob... searched everything on the internet for this problem...
found no solution yet...
i too thought this was a kernel related problem ... tried many roms and kernels ... even i unrooted my phone and installed the stock ROM ... no help still..
i got the sensors working by accident sometimes ... but they again stopped working randomly...
i didn't open up my phone yet .. and didn't give it to the service center... thinking of doing that in some days
i guess the problem started when i dropped my phone and cracked the screen ... 4-5 months ago .. gave it to an unauthorized repair to replace the screen .. i guess he messed something up ..
but the problem started way after i replaced it ... started giving the problem since 2 months after the repairs...
any help before i spend more money to repairs/replace the sensors? .. \

I have installed gennext rom and it worked perfectly. But recently I experienced some problems in touch sensitivity. For example, if i touch and hold letter 'e' on my keyboard to enter number 3, it will type bunch of letter e's (eeeeee). I factory reset and installed the rom again. And touch was back to normal. But after few days problem came back. Is this a common problem or am I the only one having it? Please help
i'm having the same problem
I tought was the only one
I think it'a memory issue. Greenify nor cleanmaster didn't help
[UPDATE] It's weird but this touch problem goes away when I remove the back cover. I don't know how this is happening. Anyone know how to get rid of this?

Flip Cover some time create this issue & the charger is also one of the reason.
my problem solved after changing the flip cover.
May be hardware or software problem.
As much i know when sometimes during charging if voltage is fluctuating or something u get screen problem, but as soon as u remove from charging it gets alright,
For u issue might be with the screen so u can test that by trying other rom if it works on other than problem is in software ( this is a good dignostic method) every mobile have a dignostic ussd umber try that and in that check screen testing so u may confirm via that too..I hope it was helpful
Change your swollen battery.
Thats the reason of problem of touch screen.
That was my problem after change battery everithing is normal.
Battery presure the back of phone.
That may be the reason. Swollen battery, why didn't I think of that earlier
Hi. I installed the wrong version of PureXperiaZ2 rom, then after that, the touch screen became erratic. There are some points that work whenever I touch it, and on other parts, its reversed. I installed back the custom rom, then the right PXZ2 rom, but still, the touch screen is erratic. Is there any way to solve this problem? Thank you in advance.
When u use the stock rom was it okay?

i m having the same problem i booted with a wrong recovery.img
the service center says 6500 for replacing the touch screen
dont know willhave to put a duplicate one
a little different than what you expect!
if the Service centre guy finds it a touch issue then it is a hardware issue
as the recovery image is just for changing software or ROMS it can rarely affect a device touch .and it might be possible that you may not find a duplicate touch for the device !
I found dulpicate one after searching a lot they are changing it for 1500!!
Thanks for the reply

Hi,
Since I flashed my LG G3 with LG flash tool, the top touch screen area doesn't work, making me unable to use the notification area.
I tried with a touch screen test application and about half centimer is not working in the top.
Somebody already encounter this?
Hey, you mean a part of screen is simply dead? I've had a very similar problem, only with my phone it was the middle of the screen, like on the video i recorded - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_R1aGVUWhs
If your phone is on warranty, send it for repair, because it's probably faulty digitizer. If not - there are 2 options. 1 - pay for the repair of the damaged digitizer (or it could be simply not well connected, but you won't be able to tell yourself because the lcd and digitizer are not separetable, at least in theory, because it is possible, but highly unsafe). The other option is what I decided to do - you need to get a lighter with a one click button and do the same as this guy does - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VERfODYHX3g. It worked for me, at least it works temporary, but I heard if you do it a couple of times it will work permanently
Thanks guy!!!
It worked with me too!

I don't know if it's related but my FM radio is not working anymore. No sound, search find inexistant radio stations.
