Unresponsive Touchscreen with CM - HTC One X

I installed CM 11 about one year ago and it worked out fine for several months. Some time ago my touchscreen occasionally became unresponsive, so I tried to downgrade to stable version of CM (10.2). It worked out for several days but then the bug occured again so I changed to the newest CM. Still the same problem.
I found out that it might help to downgrade the touchscreen firmware, but couldn't find further information about how doing so.
On this website is a link to a guide in this forum, but it does not work anymore:

Can anybody help me out?
Really appreciate your help, this stuff is getting annoying.

Did the screen become responsive after locking and unlocking the phone again?
Also did you experience any "phantom" touches on the screen?
Because I did, a lot, on CM.
Now, I'm on ViperX and they rarely happen.

Yeah, I forgot to mention this. Locking and unlocking or rebooting the phone will sometimes make the screen responsive again. But if the screen is idle for ~10 seconds it bugs again.
As far as I can remember I never/seldom had phantom touches.

Same Isues

HTC One X Screen won't turn on, touchscreen still work???

I have been using the HOX for over 2 months now but this morning my phone display suddenly doesn't turn on even the backlight key still on and touchscreen still work ( when I sweep my finger up the unlock sound still play, and I can even adjust the volume of the phone, etc... ) I have no ideas if this is a software or hardware problem and how to solve it, I'm still on Stock Rom, Stock Kernel,... Please help me
try to reboot pressing power button for 10 seconds, if it'll not work, it can be hardware problem, as i understood you haven't unlocked it, so you can send it to htc and they will repair it, or if you can, you can change it by yourself,
have you tried starting in bootloader and factory resetting?

Yeah I tried to reset the phone, ai first it worked. But when I turn the screen off and doesn't use it for a few minutes, the problem is back again, It's really odd, I have heard about lots of HOX Screen problem but I haven't seen this one before
So the screen works in bootloader?

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Really weird, it feels like the phone has woke up but the display still "think" that it still in standby mode
Hardware fault for sure.
Same Problem
Hey, ive been using my international HTC One X for about two months too now and there have been no problems. ever since the update to 4.0.3 ive been facing exactly the same problem. The screen does not turn on a lot of the time but the touch is active. Have you found any solution to it?

I have the same problem now. Using it completely stock, the screen doesn't turn on. Well.... Except for the times I visit the Vodafone shop to get it fixed....
Their first reaction was a defect in the screen, so they ordered a new one. I brought it yesterday again and it is now in for repair.
I don't know if this will solve the problem. How did they fix yours?

hey guys
I had this problem a month ago, i know its frustrating.
anyway the only solution is factory rest from boot loader and flash RUU (worked for me)
the first time i had it, i did a factory reset, all my pics music were gone, phone went back to normal( stock, locked)
after a day the problem appeared again, second rest.
flashed RUU and the problem is gone. thanks god i have been using my HOX about a month science that problem and every thing is working great.
im sure its a software issue and I recommend every one to back up their files(pics,music)
just flash RUU and good luck
Lol, exactly the issue I had recently had with mine. Sent it backto htc, let's see what they would do about it.

My colleque has the same issue with his One X.
It started with suddenly everything on his screen looking "zoomed in", so everything double size, looking ugly as a mofo, and not usable. After locking the sceen and unlocking again, it was fine.
Monday suddenly also screen didn't want to turn on anymore. Did the hard reboot for him, and it worked again... Untill he locked his screen and wanted to unlock, same issue.
Also, that time when doing the hard reboot, screen didn't turn on at all. Did another one, and worked again.
He's now sent it in for repair, this definately sounds like ahrdware issue, even full reset through bootloader didn't help.

Yup, exactly the same problem I'm having, I sent it to HTC, they said they fixed it by replacing the motherboard, but now it is happening again, I will have to send to HTC again.
This just happened to my phone... Has anyone else solved it? Is reset and flashing RUU the solution?

I have the same problem right now.
It started last week when I was using Flipboard and suddenly everything started zooming in and stuff (same as mhulsegge above). It was resolved by locking my screen and unlocking it.
Last night, i've been getting the black screen when I try to unlock my phone. The touchscreen still works but the screen is just blank. It turns on if I keep locking and unlocking, but it's getting annoying.
My phone is an international One X (duh) bought in Hong Kong and I'm currently living in Canada so it would not be possible to send it back for repairs. Plus my phone is rooted and I am currently using the latest MIUI ROM (2.9.21). I have been using an app called "Sleep" which tracks your sleeping patterns. It requires you to place your screen face down on your bed when you sleep and the accelerometer will track your sleeping patterns and wake you up at the most optimal time. I assume that for the accelerometer to work the screen has to be on, so I am wondering if this can be a screen malfunction (overheat or overuse) problem since the screen has been on for so long (every night when i sleep for around a month).
Since sending it back is out of the question for me because of where I am living right now and I have voided my warranty, I am downloading other ROMs as we speak and seeing if it is a problem with my ROM. I will keep you guys posted.
-edit- I have tried factory reset and reinstalling my ROM (with a full wipe). Still doesn't work.
It´s probably not your rom since I use CM10 hand have the same problem and others have even been running stock and had this problem. The only one who seems to have solved this (at least in this thread) flashed RUU, so guess I´ll go try that now...
Would be great to hear if anyone else has solved it, and how!
edit: This has to be a hardware problem, if I push on the screen it starts working! Its like something is loose, and when i press on the screen it gets connected again.

Good tip, but I tried a gentle two-fingered push (zoom pinch) and the backlight turned itself on with very little pressure, certainly not enough to flex the screen. I believe that it is a state issue related to zoom, but will try again and report if the issue returns.
Screen black after replacement lcd display unit
Hi,
My HOX touchscreen was broken, the touch and everything was still working. I ordered a replacement lcd display Unit and replaced the complete display and touch. After replacement the screen is completely black but the phone still works. The touch buttons on the bottom still work and i can use the volume buttons. I replaced the lcd display unit very carefully and i am sure nothing is broken etc. So the touch is working but the screen is black. I tried 2 display units and both show me a black screen.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Did i forget to do something during the replacement?
Please, i need some help with this issue.
OneX has too much issue with Screen . WTF with HTC?

Z1 Compact with Cyanogenmod - Screen doesn't wake

Hi,
I have:
Sony Xperia Z1 Compact
Rooted
CyanogenMod version 11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-amami
Android version 4.4.4
Kernel version 3.4.0cyanogenmod-g1b20e398 [email protected] #1
Build number cm_amami-userdebug 4.4.4 KTU84Q a265284510 test-keys
My phone's screen has the annoying problem of sometimes not waking when I press the power button (while the phone is turned on). The phone is still on, but doesn't respond to input. I can call it, but nothing happens. I can connect the charger, but it doesn't respond.
I did not experience the issue before rooting. After rooting and installing CyanogenMod, the problem occurred perhaps 1-2 a week.
Recently I encrypted my phone. After that the problem has become much more frequent. The screen is now unwakable roughly 2-3 times a day, some times even more!
The only solution I have found, it to either turn the phone off via the red off button next to the SIM card, or by rebooting it by holding the power button in for so long.
The issue is extremely annoying, especially after it started occurring 2-3 times a day.
I have tried searching for similar issues, but haven't found any solutions.
I have tried changing the brightness levels so the max level is 99% instead of 100%, as someone had suggested, but that hasn't made any difference. Unscrewing the phone and cleaning the proximity sensor, as someone else had suggested, is something I haven't tried yet, as I don't feel competent enough to unscrew the phone.
The phone used to have the protection plastic provided from the fabric, but I tore that off not too long ago. No change in behaviour.
I have not managed to find one special event that triggers this behaviour or reproduce the issue on demand.
Hopefully someone will have some tips as to what I can do to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.
Any modifications on the kernel? Like special governors or under/overclocking?
As you are using a custom ROM the clear advise here is: try out with stock ROM and see if the problem is still there.
If not, it is a problem with the ROM.
I'm having the exact same problem. I flashed cm11 snapshot two days ago, and today my screen wouldn't wake no matter what.not even a restart would solve the issue, cause the moment the phone goes to sleep after a boot, that was the last time the screen was on. I'm following this thread in case somebody comes up with a solution.
hi there, my phone is acting the same way as yours described. Mine is rooted on stock lolipop and it never happened before although i had a replacement unit and the one before that acting the same way. Pressed the power button and nothing happend regardless screen on or off. Had to do hard reset and it worked for like 1 or 2 days. I went to sony talk forum and ppl seems to say it a bug since the phone released. If anyone got anything would be great help. Thanks

Touch no responsive after call

HI, guys. You my only hope. 6 month ago a replaced my screen with screen from Ali. Sometimes I have problem, that after call touchscreen became unresponsive screen is working . Reboot with pwr + volume up do the job. I do some research. Proximity sensor is OK, even with disabled touch, thanks OTG cable.

i have the exact same problem with you and i think is screen related.
i ll perform the proximity sensor check and if it is not the source of the problem,i ll take off my screen,give a cleaning at the connections and put it back on, to notice it s behaviour.
hope i won t break my screen cause it happened before:fingers-crossed:
my screen has started un gluing from the left side of the display and screen is lifted upwards ,i just mention this for the possibility of causing a problem with those freezes during incoming calls,but i can t think of anything.
probably i need to order a new display(not from the same seller of course) cause it is a little dim too,if it s not fixed after trying those i really don t know what i will do with my phone,it really gives in my nerves with this problem(otherwise i m very satisfied of owning it).
i ll come back reporting after making my tests...
EDITroximity sensor check OK,no problem.
cleaned the connections of my screen and i have only 1 freeze after 40 calls,but is still there and is only a day that passed..
i can t target if my problem is hardware or software,i ll flash stock lollipop with flashtool and wait for some days,but if it appears again what should be my next step?
any ideas welcomed..
EDIT 2:after five days on stock 5.1,problem seems to dissapeared,so i supposed it is related to an app...
EDIT3:till now everything is OK.

LG G3 touchscreen problem ?

So 2 days ago my device started having some trouble with the screen. As it is working and everything is fine, the screen becomes unresponsive and you have to lock it, wait for 1-2 minutes, unlock it and then the screen becomes responsive again for a couple of minutes and the same problem occurs after that. I did a soft reset and a hard reset but none of them worked. Also my warranty has expired, so please if you have dealt with the same problem or have any suggestions on how to fix it, let me know.
My d855 is now doing the same thing. Touchscreen reponds, everything's normal. Touch fails until power off manually or times out. I have to wait for 10+ seconds, unlock it and then the screen becomes responsive again for a little while. Repeat.
- Phone works normally with a mouse, so its not crashing/bsod/freezing???
- flashed latest lineageOS prior to issue but same thing persists in TWRP???
Not sure where to begin trying to fix issue, power botton, digitiser, sensors,motherboard or software??? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I love this phone.

Unresponsive touch screen

Hi there, first of all I've seen some other threads which kind of have the same problem but not quite. So here is my problem my touch screen isn't responding most of the time, it started happening like a week ago when it froze while trying to send a picture in messenger, after 1-2 reboots it started working again but after that the same thing happened while I was typing in messenger, so I thought it might be software problem and made hard reset and installed new stock android(that didn't help). The last couple of days most of the time it's not working and I'm using it with a mouse, but there are periods when it works for some time. I've entered the hidden menu(without updating the touch firmware because I saw that it might kill it for good) to try and test it and had 2 different results
- The touch screen firmware version on my phone is -1
- And the one from the photos that I've attached(obviously during this one it actually worked for a couple of minutes)
Something else I've noticed while the touch isn't working when I turn off the screen from the power button first it dims the light for 2 seconds before really turning off.
Other things that I've tried are changing kernel, opening the back of the phone and reconnecting the screen to the motherboard(which helped the first time and it worked for 1 day or so but doesn't help since then) .
There is one more strange thing for some time now may be 3-4 months the phone has problems connecting to WiFi)
And one last thing after the screen problem the phone started booting quite slow some times and showing "Process System Not Responding'"
The phone is running on Stock V30b MM and hasn't been dropped for a long time
The problem is that I don't know is it software problem, screen problem or motherboard so any Ideas will be appreciated.
