when i touched the screen using my finger thumb in certain area of touch screen(middle), the start menu automatically drop down
i tried my friend's unit as well, also got this problem. anyone got this problem?
Yes, i have to this problem!
how u gonna solve it? seem like this model got this problem...just it seldom happen or frequently happen
I've the same problem too! But I've send it to HTC care (I'm in HK) to repair two times. First time they change the mother broad but the problem's still there; then I send it back the second time, they change the screen as well.
I've got it back for 3 days and the start up menu didn't pop up itself. Hope it won't happen again.....
I have been experiencing the same problem for some time now.
I've had this device for about 5 months and I have been treating it very nice.
Whenever I touch a certain area of the screen (which I haven't been able to figure out yet), the Start Menu pops out, which is very annoying, to say the last. It especially drives me nuts when trying to compose something using CooTek's TouchPal.
All in all, I do not know whether this is a hardware problem or not. I'm not very sure this is covered by warranty...
same problem here, touch screen changed 2 times by htc
i take to service center, they help me changed the motherboard as well but the problem still there...i think need them to help me change the screen as well...
second changed the lcd touch screen, still got that problem but less already
happen once a day sometimes 2 days once
anyone what the problem?
Hi Guys i hope somebody who knows about capacitive touch screens can help me! I have taken my HD2 apart to fix a smashed camera lense. On removing the back cover i used a small screwdriver to prise off the back case and unclip it all round. It came off with no problem, i fixed the camera and put it back together. When i turned the device back on the touch screen isn't responding to my finger on any screen. Like i turned the touch screen off! The hard buttons still wok but nothing from the screen. Nothing looks damaged (I.e the glass isn't smashed). I seem to think i might have damaged something when prising the cover off with the screwdriver. Please, any suggestions would be really helpful!!!
Can anybody out there help with this? I am currently without a phone :-(
I have exactly the same problem, but it happened from nowhere. I didnot unscrew anything. Please Help
Check the flex cable.. this part are very delicate.

same problem
ive got the same problem, mine just stopped working, i performed a soft and hard reset, removed the battery still nothing. it worked for a moment but once locked it stopped working again, only the hard buttons.
same problem but it works on and off. basically the screen will respond until the phone is put into hibernate. the after that id have to push the phone button and end button back and forth until it responds
Same Issue independant of ROM
Same issue here.
Funny thing is it started a week or two ago randomly out of the blue.
Same scenario:
lock the phone can't get touchscreen to respond for unlock
Judging by these posts everyone started seeing this about the same time, maybe it's a software issue or background app .
Help!
I have same problem. It can work for a couple of hours or in 1-2 days then just stop responding, almost every time when in hibernate. Lets just hope it's not hardware failure.
This started happening to me this morning. Out of 50 tries, managed to unlock the phone three times only. This happened out of the blue, right after i removed my phone from the charger.
Have soft reset, hard reset, reflashed ROM, but the issue still remains.
I really really hope this is not a hardware issue.
Does anyone out there know how to solve this? My phone is virtually unusable right now...
Same problem here, I've been testing for about 2,5 months now and today I've sent mine back to HTC . I think it's a hardware problem, tried everything from hard resetting to reflashing. When I press the HTC logo and keep it pressed the screen does respond again. Conclusion: hardware problem.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You're probably right.
I've also tried everything. But kind of strange that if I lock when not on home tab it seems to work. And the screen, almost always, reacts as it should as long as I just dont' lock it.
I just started to get this issue. touch screen works fine until it hibernates. reflashed, still happens. found this in my search:
htcphones.net/htc-hd2-problems-with-touchscreen/
just got off the phone with tmo. they are sending me a new one.
Yeah, it happened to me as well. I opened a new thread like a month ago explaining the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=710282&styleid=15
and I contributed in another one concerning the same issue here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708530
Summing all up, it ain't caused by a software or a ROM of some kind (at least in my case) because soft and hard resets didn't solve it nor did the flash of a stock ROM. The most probable cause is a digitizer (touchscreen) defect that appears randomly and totally out of the blue. The only thing to do in my opinion is to send the phone in for repair, which I did. It came back with a check mark on "calibrated screen" checkbox. As of now phone's working fine and I hope they solved it even though I read of other people who have had their leo's screens completely replaced..
A curious side note: htc care reset to zero my phone's call duration timers..
I'm not sure if it's the screen. In my case I think it's the connector from the screen to the motherboard, because pressing the housing seems to help.
But let's see if HTC is able to repair it, I hope they are, because the problem is so random they might not even see it
After losing functionality on my touch screen for a week, finally decided to send it in. Took the trouble to revert my HSPL to original and Stock Rom.
Repair should take about a week. Now I'm stuck with an ancient Nokia 6230i for this week. I feel so lost without my ppc. Have had one for as long as I can remember.
Hopefully the phone comes back okay...
I've had so much problem with the screen not responding so I did all backup then reflashed, hard reset to put the device back to stock. Did this during the weekend, I even fired up my old iphone 3g to have as backup phone.
All set today to go to the store and have it repared under warranty.
But since Sunday evening it works perfect. I've been testing it a lot and the screen has not stop responding even once.
This might be just temporarily but does anyone else experienced something like this?
Mine sometimes worked well for hours... days... but eventually the problem came back.
Mine died on me when I was actually out of the country (stuck in Vietnam without a phone). It would work for 5 minutes, then stop for hours. I would have to switch my phone on and off for a couple hundred times before it worked for another 5 minutes...
Got so tired of it that i sent back my HD2 for warranty repair. Expect it to be back tomorrow (or Friday at the latest). Hope there's no further problems with it.
I hate to say it, but the HD2 is known for its highly defective touchscreen. Even when it's working, a lot of people experience strange and bothering events, such as the touchscreen "touching" itself, a very high/very low screen sensitivity all of a sudden, the tilting of the screen to one of the four corners of the device and so on and so forth.
With a device so expensive one would expect it to work flawlessly. Seems to me that HTC doesn't think the way we do...
About a week ago I suddenly started having some issues with the touch response on my HD2, but only when doing certain tasks. Whenever I try to shut down the phone, I press the power button and then the menu pops up giving me a few different options, but the screen is completely unresponsive to anything I touch. Also, the slide to unlock doesn't operate about half the time, so I'm constantly hitting the lock button & trying again. I haven't had any issues with touch while doing any other tasks. I've also tried several different ROMs, including going back to the stock ROM. I've read about several devices with bad digitizers, but this seems to be more specific than that. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
My brother's phone had the exact same issue. We both got our HD2's on the same day in May as part of the Buy One Get One Free deal. Since then, he has had numerous freezing issues with his phone. My phone on the other hand, seldomly suffered from those issues. A week or so ago he told me that he couldn't unlock his phone sometimes, and that he had to keep cycling the screen on and off to finally make the screen respond to touch input. So, after playing with it for a few minutes I noticed the screen became completely unresponsive when attempting to power off the phone. After messing with it for a while, the screen would not respond on any screen at all. So, I called T-Mobile today, and within 5 minutes they offered to send out a Warranty Replacement. Absolutely no hassle at all.
Thanks for the reply. I guess I should give that a try.
what's up ???
is it general problem ???????
my device will arrive next week so will it have the same problem
so depressed ... it is very nice device to have but a screen problem make it realy bad .....
The touchscreen doesnt seem to work all the time. Sometimes it stops responding, i tried hitting the screen hard and that made it work again.
I think it started after a friend dropped, do i need to replace the TS
mine does the same thing; second time this has happened to me..... its getting worse
i'm going to call t-mo usa and get another warantee exchange. mines exhibiting most of the "bugs" this thread refers to:

Hi, a friend of mine got an N7 a few days ago, and he has been using it fine, no problems at all, however, not 10 minutes ago, when he tried to use it, he said the entire touchscreen went dead, and doesn't respond to any touches. He is bringing it round tomorrow for me to have a look at, but I was wondering if anyone else had had this problem (couldn't find anything in the forums with search), or had any suggestions?
He has tried multiple reboots and wake/lock cycles, but no luck so far, and I don't remember it feeling creaky or badly constructed when I played with it on the first day he got it.
Thanks
Edit: Just something I missed out, the N7 hasn't be modified at all, so no rooting etc, AFAIK, meaning the problem isn't because of that..
Same problem on mine! Had my Nexus 7 CCO less than 1 month. The screen suddenly stopped responding to touch. I can still access the device using a OTG cable and mouse. No visible screen lift, screen colours / clarity all ok, even all my apps work. I factory reset the device but still the touchscreen is not working. Not sure what happened. I was so careful when using it
Note: Its a stock device.
