So today my touch screen on my HTC Touch Pro 2 just stopped working. It doesn't respond to any touches on it at all. I can use the hardware buttons and the keyboard, but nothing on the touch screen which makes the phone practically useless.
Does anyone know of any settings that may have caused this? I'm hoping I might've mistakenly turned something off that made the entire touch screen shutdown. Doubtful, but worth a shot.
If you aren't already, you should flash a stock ROM to make sure it is the hardware at fault. If it acts this way with a stock ROM, then you have a faulty digitizer. You could either try to replace it yourself, or send it in for repairs or a replacement if you still have warranty remaining.
I am already using the stock ROM
Is that happened due to error on D3D driver?

No, it's happening because of a faulty digitizer as I mentioned above. That needs to be replaced.
Try a hard reset first, it happened to me once.

I am using My Touch slide for almost past 6 months. Yesterday I was clicking some pics and it suddenly started acting weird and after some time the screen stopped reacting . Now the screen s not reacting at all. I tried to reset. Didn't work. I tied to update the software , but since than the MOBILE is not reading he SD card. Neither I am able to SYNC the phone. Please Please Please tell me what should I do .????? It's almost dead and I am not able to use it . I cant afford a new one right now so, please help .....
For the screen being unresponsive would usually mean that your digitizer is broken

I have the exact same problem :/
how to repair that. please tell ..
6 months old? Can't you then just let it repair for free or get a new one where you bought it?
If its a hardware problem, and it rather sounds so, then you probably can't do much on your own (and don't break it if you have guarantee).

Well the problem (for me) is that I do not live in the US, so the shipping fee would be one thing, and then I'd actually have to pay customs to get it back again, so that's a no go. I might try to replace the digitizer though, although I allready replaced it.
You could conceivably order and replace the digitizer yourself, however, it is very difficult and you run the risk of permanently damaging the phone. If you are under warranty still, return it. If rooted search xda for the factory update.zip and follow the instructions to do a factory restore, then return it.

But when phone is cold (-20° C) this works fine. What is it, can you help me
change the touchscreen(is cheap kinda 20$)
..
maybe some " spot " from the touch screen is blocked ... maybe due to the " heat " that kinda makes the touchscreen to misbehave.
but first try to reinstall the ROM by wiping all things.
Thank you, I did full wipe and reinstalled Rom, problem is still exist. How can I change touch screen and where to boy it for 20$? If I change touch there will be air gap I think. In my service centre to solve problem I need about 240$
now phone is ok, because im outtdoors where is -25 ' C

Why don't you take it to the HTC repair center. I'm sure they will replace it for free since it's hardware related problem

Are you sure about this? I thought by unlocking the device you lost your warranty (HTC made it pretty hard to ignore), since software can f*ck up the hardware?

i think htc repair centre wont work with my phone cuz of unlocking bootloader. about link... this is only touch screen, ours service centres cant make this job to replace only touch screen. After this zerogap will be lost
Hi guys!
I have a F180L (converted on a E975), my phone never fell from any distance, or had any kind of impact, BUT...Since I updated to last version o Carbom ROM, I've got a issue on my screen...
There are random touches on my down-left corner of the screen. It's completely random, while the charger is plugged, or not. But it only happens when an app is opened, while in homescreen (even on google now cards) everything is ok...
I've already flashed another rom, the AOKP Android L release 11, the problem still here...I installed a screen tester app, and this corner is not recognizing when I touch.
What can I do? Is there any kind of fix for it?
It's really annoying (mainly while typing)...
Thank you for any help!
I guess its time for a replacement.
Made some research on other forums and found some people with the same problem, but on other devices...On Nexus 4 and Xioami (mostly)...They solved this by replacing the battery...I'll try to do that this week...
But any other tip about can help...
it might be a kernel issue
if u have jolla kernel try changing the kernel first
I have also the ghost touching on my E975.
Tried to do a scan with antivirus with no luck.
For instance it's hard to dial number, because there are ghost touches often.
It's like on tihs video, but I have touches even more often:

I'm on stock KitKat 4.4.2 ROM.
Any ideas about the issue?

I also had this problem and I sent it to service center (Still in warranty period). They replaced my phone touch screen and the problem is solved.

Thanks.
It's relatively common issue, hope it will not appear again...
Sorry to resurrect this thread but I seem to have a problem with my screen, not with the ghostly touches but my screen has like one part of it not responsive to touches especially the keyboard. While typing in portrait mode I can't type in the letters x and d and the whole line of the screen above those letters can't respond to my touches. The others are OK though. Anyone else having the same problem or is it just me? Already flashed different ROMs but same problem
So...I didn't manage to get a new battery to perform a test yet...Maybe I'll do that until the end of this week, and post the results here...
About the kernel...Mine is "3.4.0 [email protected]" ...
Going to update to new Kevin's L ROM and see what will happen...Hope I can help u, guys...
I had the same problem as well, unfortunately my phone was just out of the warranty period so I couldn't get a repair or replacement. I tried everything to do with the software and firmware at first to see if that was the issue(no luck). I noticed when my phone was either hot from heavy usage or charging, it was at its worst..couldn't even put my lock pattern in without it spazzing out. After almost throwing my phone at a wall numerous times I decided to get a new digitizer (easily bought online at reasonable prices). Watched a tutorial on Youtube and replaced it successfully and haven't had a problem since.

Thanks for ur information, dude!
So tried the touchscreen test and found out it was like a whole strip of screen that got affected. It was okay just a few days ago though,

Yeah no problem and thats unlucky. I've got the Korean variant and wasn't ready to wait weeks to get my new digitizer either from Asia. I managed to find a european version that arrived next day and included front housing aswell (although modifications were needed a bit for the internals to fit). Yeah the Moto G look great but it seems to be more of a downgrade from your current handset right?

I live in the UK I managed to find one here on ebay. I know you can get some from Italy , Spain and I'm positive there some in US aswell. Search "E975 housing or digitizer" depending on what your after. Do be careful as some replacements screens lack the LG logo or a bad quality. Im would give direct link but im not sure about the forum rules on that are. If your still unsure do PM me your country and I'll PM you back an appropriate link.
Hope I helped.

Had the same problem. Tried everything including tightening the screws like some suggested. Finally i tried loosening the screws instead, and even removed a couple of screws at the top. Ghost touch finally stopped. Been 8 hours now. Hopefully it stays that way.

how's your phone now? i encounter the same problem. my phone is just two months old and mine is laser 6 inches. i have sent it to the service center for diagnosis and replacement/repair. im worrying that this problem would come back after some time. im assessing that my digitizer broke because an inch of my screen does not respond in addition to the ghost touch
My ZE550ML is having a little ghost touch also, but it sorta happens when I under clock the processor and when I'm using apps like Google+, XDA, etc. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it just goes away for a few hours. Might have to do what houhong did.

That's alright my fellow sir. I had to get the Axon 7 since the LCD wouldn't turn on after going through ghost touch. I'm glad you got a moto x pure edition to replace it. It is definitely a worth smartphone to replace.

Hello Guys , the ghost touch has no relation with any app or software, it is purely a hardware problem, Main cause of this is the digitizer tiny flat cable . you need to disconnect and reconnect the digtizer flat cable ( under metal cover for the main board) please follow proper procedure , Then before you put things back together stick a peace of foam over the flat cable connection after locking it in the position ( over cable and connector). This should sort the problem , but if you experience the ghost touch again , you need to replace screen digitizer first and follow the same procedure for the new screen digitizer and that will be end of problem.
Please do not bother with factory reset or uninstalling apps .. I briked and unbriked the whole phone before I realize problem had nothing to do with software !!
Good luck!
