Thankskss

wow three questoins in one... I'll give you some clues battery=google batti
keyboard not working close it and use the screen one for a minute and switch back.
screen going turning off commen issue no fix deal with it..
thanks a lot austin.
i have had 2 8525's and a TyTn, i get the keyboard lock up problem every once in a while, has happened on all of them.. Sometimes closing the keyboard and opening it back up does fix the problem, but when it dont i have to soft reset... 1 thing that also worked sometimes on my 2 8525's was pressing all the keys on the dpad at the some time.. but its a problem i have learned to deal with, only happens to me like once a month
I've had it happen to me three times in one day. It's very annoying, second Trion due to this and O2 say they can't reproduce it. Both stock and did not have 3rd party apps installed.
Hey ive been having problem with my screen everyonce in a while and am wondering if anyone else has faces the same issues.
The problem is that sometimes my screen all of a sudden goes from its normal stae to some weird light blueish full screen type thing now when it does this you would think that the phone hanged or something but no it hasnt it works perfectly u just can see what the hell ur doing( ive even recieved calls in this state) i tried resetting it but still no go but if i take out the battery and wait a min or 2 and then turn it on again it would show the screen properly for a few seconds and then go weird all over again.now when it does this by trial and error i leared that if i press on the down key area ( the button under the screen ) and squeez the area it then clears up sometimes for a few seconds only so i redo it an then it works perfectly for a week or 2 or 3 then it does it again.
Anyway question is anyone have any idea whats up with it? and should i be thinking of dumping the set on someone before if stops working permenantly or should i jus live with it ( im cash strapped and dont think i can get any other phone with the kind of functions this one has with the money id get from selling this one)
well try and open it and disconect and then connect the screen to the board...just to make sure put a paper clip over it so it doesn't come off...if that doesn't work...dump it on someone
I have the WP7 installed. No dual boot.
I have a password protected lock screen, and every once in awhile, the touch screen wont work, so I can't slide up and put in the password. If I hit the windows button in the middle, it kinda bounces for a second, then goes dark again.
It happened yesterday too, and the only way I fixed it was to turn it off, take out the battery and then turn it back on again.
When the touch screen works, it works fine. It's perplexing.
Anyone else have this problem?
Yes, but I only have to tap on the screen and the touch screen is working again and I can slide up the screen. Had this happen with both of the builds I've used so far.
This didn't work for me. My phone's been locked all night.
Hmm, not really sure what it could be. Check with whoever built the rom you are using, they may have a better solution. Sorry I couldn't help more.
Its a hardware problem, not software, i had the same problem the solution is to change touch screen, try to press touch near red button for same time it can help, but not for long time.
Sorry for me english)
Common problem. Your touch screen is fried (or is in the processing of frying). Start the warranty process now.
fried? dunno mate, when my touch screen goes on the blink i sweep a finger in the opersite direction to what i usually do then try again straight after, so forinstance, at the lock screen i try up and it doesnt work, so i try down then up and that usually fixes it, same for the tile screen, if it wont work as i sweepleft, i sweep right then left.
this doesnt happn on android which i would think rules out an overall hardware fault, at least for me anyway, it is however hardware related, the HD2 shouldnt have WP7, the drivers are not designed for our device so expect these odd happenings.
Of course its equally likely that this could be another sign of the pain in the arse SD card issues some of us suffer, reflash and try a new SD card and see what happens.
Man its realy problem of touch screen because it breaks in zone of red button, and when you press it some times it goes ok, and works wery well, but it die from now, replace the touch or it will die in few - weeks- days.
i would seriously get that accusation backed up by some proof before someone does something they didnt need to do.
I have random unresponsive screen issues that are directly related to the install of WP7 it does not happen on android or WM, there for its not hardware, at least in my case, its driver
phone was working fine but from last two week the screen starts moving automatically, Wi-Fi turns on automatically at any time. the install button of Google play doesn't work (seems like touch issue) but when i touch the same spot with camera application, it works fine. i am on stock ROM (4.4.2, kernel 3.4.0, KOT49l ) and tried resetting the phone multiple times but facing the same issue.
please help me resolving this issue.
regards.

These are not software problems (dead touchscreens spots), your knock on will not working. It's hardware issue, I think you need sending it back to LG

You are just scaring ppl .. You said that my phone has probblem too .. So just dont scare ppl .. and try to help them..
i had this kind of issue with my other phone, I just downgraded to Jelly Bean and it worked fine ... and did the touch drivers update from the hidden menu 3845*#802# ...
i think you have a dead section along the top of your screen, about half an inch down. Its been fairly common. Its not real noticeable at first , bc that area of the screen isnt used often, but its EXACTLY where the play store install button is, and your knock on will no longer work. you need a new screen. or flip it to landscape whenever (seldomly) you need that area of screen. you can test it by getting LCD tester from the playstore , or by using quickmemo to draw on your screen.

This happened to me exactly, about a month back. It seems to be right across where the 2nd from the top messages are. You can download YAMTT https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rn.yamtt&hl=en
I use the PAINT option and move my fingers around the top. It was a solid strip out near the top. Knock On will no longer work, but Knockoff will.

when i touch the same spot with camera application, it works fine.

that could be because the camera button has more "active area" meaning, it will still work if you tap near but not exactly in the same location. the install button on the play store is very very precise. if your knock on does work, then its probably just software. but if your knock on does not work, i recommend testing the hardware with quick memo.... draw lines all the way up and down your screen slowly, and see if there is a break in that area. if its not the screen, unroot, and go all the way back to stock
i don't know how but it has started working automatically form last 10 minutes and google play button is now accessible.
i hope it wont give that error again.
thanks for all good suggestions.

In developer options. Tick Show Touches option. you touch any area on touch screen and check dead zone or using Quick memo
Hi guys
I have moved from iPhone to a note 4 and loving it!
I was just wondering if anyone has found the touch screen occasionally doesn't respond to their touch and you have to touch it again. On the iPhone it only ever missed a touch if my finger was in the wrong place, but it never happened on the keyboard. Every so often maybe 5/6 times a day I touch a key on the keyboard and nothing happens, when I try again it's fine. I can't reproduce it, because when I tap anywhere on the keyboard something gets pressed. I was just wondering if this was normal?
Hope you are enjoying your phones!!
Anyone?
It's most likely cause your palm is on the phone. One of the downsides of a slim bezel on a big phone. Also keep in mind if your spen is on the screen, your fingers won't work. A case might help.
I thought about another part of my hand touching the screen, however with half my hand layed across my keyboard I can still type with the other hand. Thanks for the response
I Pele tried factory resetting today and not installed any apps, but it is still happening
I rang Samsung this morning and they advised I return I to the store and get an exchange. Luckily my local store got its first batch of note 4s in this morning and they swapped it out. I restored it all firmware updates put on it and now works fine! The only thing I haven't installed is a Google play system update thing. I was wondering if that was the cause x
Similar issues
I've had similar issues (in fact, that's what brought me here in the first place). Initially, I was able to tap on the screen in the text box and then continue typing (I use Swype). However, now my messaging app (default Messages) just freezes up, forcing me to close the app, clear the memory, and relaunch the app before continuing.
Were you using the default app and/or Swype when you had issues? I'm going to try to factory reset my phone to see if it helps.
It's taken a couple of weeks for this problem to develop, so please keep us posted if this problem arises again on your new phone!
Edit: Also want to point out that when I text, I use one hand to hold the phone and only a finger to swipe my text. As such, only the one finger touches the screen.
unable to use touch screen. only hard key were working >>Note4

Same thing happened to me last night. The touchscreen became unresponsive while using chrome. The phone was a little warm but not bad. I didn't try the pen, sounds like a good idea. I am not certain it was a touch screen issue with mine. Almost more of a processor issue. I got the phone to lock. After pressing the menu or lock button to wake the screen it would take 5-10 seconds to wake. Then I could swipe my unlock pattern. It would not show any lines. I would wait, the screen would turn black after timing out in about 5s. The about 5s after I could hear the speaker make the unlock sound. I ended up doing a battery pull and that fixed the issue. Anyone else have something similar?
Should I try and replace it?

Observe to see if it happens when you're using other apps too. Chrome has been notorious for causing all sorts of problems, like reboots, freezes, etc on some devices.
Also it may be worth installing Chrome Samsung Support Library.

Got the same problem after 2 months of normal usage... I initially though I had installed a third party application which was causing the system freeze but this was not the problem.
- tried factory resetting and not installed any apps, but it is still happening
- When this happens if I take out the spen .... surprise it work. The pen allows me to do anything... But the touch screen does not work with fingers...
- I used the pen to reboot the note4... Still the same problem after reboot... I ended up doing a battery pull and that fixed the issue for.... a couple of minutes... Then the problem came back....
The only solution remaining was to return the phone.... They gave me a Note3 while my Note4 is being repaired...
That's a shame for a product of that price!
:crying:
Same thing is happening with my 2 months old note4 since two weeks ago. An horizontal line 1.5cm in width about 1/3 from the bottom of the screen, became unresponsive. At reboot it works sometimes then it becomes unresponsive again. It looks like in the image I attached, the difference is that the area is horizontal, not vertical. I'm taking my note4 to the store today for warranty, hopefully they will replace it. I haven't abused the device in any way, I have a screen protector since its first day.. I really hope this isn't a serious problem that affects many users.
Just like some of you mentioned above, the pen has no issues on any area of the screen.
Cheers!

same thing happen to my note4 today. the only difference is that yours was fixed for a couple of minutes after removing the battery. my note4 wasn't fixed after that. Only S-pen works, touch screen with fingers wont work. you mentioned you're note4 is getting repaired, did they tell you what may have happened to it so that i'll get an idea of the cause..

Never purchase a device without a return / DOA policy. Not worth the hassle. If it hasn't been 30 days, you should call your credit card company or Paypal and place the amount on dispute, wait, you purchased from another market, please tell you didn't pay by cash.

I have this problem after I flash CWM recovery, before this was flashed with twrp recovery, I reflash stock rom with odin, I flash many times CWM and TWRP and I still have the problem, my warranty it's void now but I think to go at Samsung store to see if they solve my problem. This problem look like a driver for touch corrupted, if somebody find it out how to fix or have any ideea please weritte here, thanks you
I've started to have this problem as well, lower part of the left side of the screen sometimes registers touch instead of scrolling! Very annoying, tried to update recovery, tried tapping screen, doesn't help. The worst thing is I cannot reproduce the issue at will... It seems pretty random.

Unfortunately, if the phone is on Verizon, the dialing codes will be disabled.
Potential fix.
Please excuse the necropost But I came here looking for a solution from google and others may too. I found a way to solve this issue/s.
There appear to be two issues affecting this.
1. Overloading the processor.
2. Static.
If your touch input is lagging or doesn't register at all but then suddenly does a few moments later, its likely a type 1. problem. I fixed this by disabling resource intensive features such as s voice. This also improved battery life and overall performance considerably.
If touch simply doesn't work at all, but s pen works fine then the problem is more likely type 2. That being static buildup in your person. Simply touch something that can ground you and it should fix the issue. A metal tap should work. Be wary, you might even get a little zap as you discharge
