[Q] Digitizer broken - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there, I just want to ask you guys of your opinion regarding my DHD. The screen stopped responding just this day. I tried booting to recovery and nothing happens when I press the screen. Do you think I got a busted digitizer? I have dropped my phone a lot of times already. It was still working fine yesterday and I haven't remembered dropping it. I just charged it overnight and I noticed that the screen is not working this working. Any suggestions before I take it to the repair shop?

HTC Vouge Screen Issues

Heyy guys, so I dropped my phone the other day and now the screen doesn't exactly work. It's not responsive or anything, Its happened before (except without dropping it) and all i did was just re-install the ROM and it worked great. I tried to reinstall the ROM now and its stuck on the screen alignment page. I can receive calls and the buttons still work, just the screen doesn't work what so ever.
What can I do?
Thanks!

sounds like the digitizer is busted if you have a warranty i would get the phone replaced, or you could go the route of goin to ebay paying 20-30 bucks and replacing it yourself. i have replaced the digitizer for my old wing it wasnt 2 hard if you are gentle and have the knowledge(have taken apart electronics before) i would go the first route before ebay though. just my $0.02

CDMA galaxy nexus - unresponsive to touch

Hello everyone,
Basically went to unlock my phone today and touch screen is not responding, however the hardware buttons work fine. Now i've done some research and found other posts of people with the same problem, however their touchscreen problems seem to be fixed(temporarily, at least) with a battery pull.. mine however is still unresponsive after half a day and multiple battery pulls.
Id rather not have to send in for certified to replace an otherwise perfectly working phone.
Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

are u undervolting?
Nope, sorry forgot to say. Completely stock never unlocked or rooted.
Also i tried getting into recovery to try and do a factory reset but when i select recovery i just get the android on his back with the red triangle..
so instead i just went through the steps and unlocked the bootloader and booted up (in order to give me the factory reset without having to touch the screen)
It unlocked and booted up fine but still no response..
No new recent app installed and never had this happen before.
Mine did this after a few days of owning it, and luckily the store took it back and swapped it out with a perfectly working unit. Is yours within a few weeks of purchase?
Figured this out randomly. Remove battery cover. With phone turned on, press on the area to the to the left of the camera lens until the screen is responsive. My screen becomes unresponsive when the phone is dropped and this fixes it.

hrmm this does not seem to fix either. I also have never dropped my phone, although this seems to be worrisome if the issue is hardware related.
@ tmellen i purchased the phone from amazon and am a few days past my return date :-/
Guess ill just give them a call and hope for the best. Thanks for the ideas everyone.
(update) called amazon and they are sending me a brand new phone.
Knowing this i thought i'd try dailong's method again only this time i was quite a bit more "rough" with pressing down on that area, and it actually worked!
Ill still be taking the new phone once it gets here but for anyone who is having this problem there's a sweet spot on the left edge of the phone towards the top (looking at it with the back cover off) there should be a circle shape. press on that area really hard and it should fix.. weird
Experienced the same on my GSM version a few minutes ago. I had to call my mobile to get it to respond. After that it worked again as normal. I'll see if I get this issue again in the next few days. Hope it's just random
Had the same happen earlier to mine and I was on AOKP. I've had this happen to other phone before, shouldn't be a a cause for alarm unless it happens very frequently. Btw, next time it happens to me I'll give that left side of the camera trick a try.
mine got fixed by removing battery.

Replaced Digitizer Problem

Hey guys!
My girlfriend's Wildfire S fell down to the ground and the digitizer was broken. I bought a replacement one from a known seller, i mounted it everything right, but now I have the problem, that it won't recognize the input right.
Every time I turn on the phone, wake it up, every time the screen goes on, it won't recognize my finger. Only after i swiped some rounds across the whole screen, it works nearly without a problem.
Does anyone know, what the reason could be or how I can solve this problem...
...WITHOUT buying another digitizer. xD
Thanks in advance!

[Q] HTC One X Unresponsive touchscreen

So I know many people have experienced this problem but haven't found an answer to mine just yet.
My touchscreen on the HTC one x is not responding to any touch at all. I am on my second HOX in a month now and the problem has jsut come back to me again. I changed the LCD and digitizer twice, on both phones, to no avail. Have take everything to pieces to see if it was a loose cable and still nothing. It cant be my bad luck that the same hardware failure has happened to me with 2 phones this close together. The problem began intermittently on my first HOX, took about 2 months for it to fully stop responding but with my newer HOX it was over night, woke up the next day and it had stopped responding.
I have never flashed this phone, nor rooted it or put on any malicious software and am completely in need of some advice on what to do.
The background button lights come on, the power button works just fine as does the volume buttons just no response from the touch/
Have no warrant left so cant send it back to HTC either.
Any advice would be sweet as
Cheers

z1 compact touchscreen issue

Hi guys,
I'll try to keep this short : recently I fell on/with my z1 compact in my pocket, result a broken screen and touchscreen not responding anymore.
Took it to the phone repair shop, 120€ and hours later, they gave me a new screen and all seemed OK.
Unfortunately that wasn't the case. The touchscreen still randomly freezes up when I get a call and I have to do a hard reset to get things back to 'normal'.
This issue ONLY happens with phonecalls, incoming and outgoing...sometimes I can't pick up and sometimes I can not end the call.
The rest seems to be working fine.
I tried returning it (3 times now) but the guys at the shop seem not able to repair it, as the issue stills exists to this day.
I tried installing another dialer-app, no solution. Yesterday I tried a factory reset and all seemed good for a moment, until today. Same story, different day.
Are there any other options out there for me to try or is it goodbye z1 compact?
Thanks in advance.
This hapened to me yesterday, all by itself, no falls or physical damage whatsoever. I was getting a lot of phanthom touches in the last few weeks in that exact area and now its unresponsive to the touch.
I went to a few phone service shops today and got the same response from all of them: no guarantee that the screen would work even after replacement.
For me one thing is sure, sony - never again
Anyone know if its possible to replace or even remove the factory dialer app?
Ive tried installing a couple of others (playstore) but they always seem to still use the factory dialer app for the actual calling..? (Which is useless of course)
I think this is probably the last thing I can do to try and 'fix' my issue?

Even I had the same problem as mentioned here. Why won't screen work after replacement? Won't the part be new?

I have no idea, those were the words of the repair shop owner. It's hard for me to spend 30-40 euros on a part that has no guarantee of working.
To make things worse, 2 days ago my power button also stoped working. I'm so done with sony
