Strangest touch screen loss problem! + SOD / QUICK WAKE UP TEST WITH YES/SEND KEY.

17/9/2010 EDIT: With a lot of feedback from this thread and other threads, it has come out that, waking up the phone with the YES/CALL/SEND green button is BETTER than waking up with the NO/END/POWER red button for SOD reasons.
----
Hello guys,
You probably know I am actively in the Android HD2 porting community.
I am having the strangest touch screen problem. I am really experienced into winmo and android stuff. Please read carefully.There is a surprise at the end.
BOTH under Android AND Winmo my touchscreen works just fine after bootup.
It first started like this:
At first my touchscreen stopped responding when I hold no button to make a reboot/power off. I thought it was from the usual Android touch screen freeze related to g sensor. Then I realized that it was the same in Winmo! Holding no button ALSO caused touch screen to die even under winmo.
Then it started loosing touch after sleeping. My touch is ALWAYS working when I boot winmo OR android and works for hours if not put to sleep. But it stops working after putting it to sleep.
Frustrated,
I restored with spb backup. Didn't work.
I reflashed my winmo rom. Didn't work.
I made a hard reset. Didn't work.
I removed sd card. Didn't work.
I removed sim card. Didn't work.
I changed the date. Didn't work. (this was a strange fix for some blackberries)
I flashed original 1.66 Turkish rom, 2.07 original old radio, even original 1.42 SPL which makes this hd2 fully stock the day I bought it. Even made another hard reset. Still didn't work!
By this time it's obvious this is a hardware problem and needs warranty.
OK
THEN I FOUND THE STRANGEST THING:
If I wake up the phone with ANY hard button other than the NO/HANGUP button touch screen WORKS!!! (Yes/Send button under Android)
BELIEVE ME, I HAVE TRIED FLASHING REFLASHING RESETTING AND TESTED 100 TIMES and YES it is ALWAYS the same. This is not a random thing.
If I wake up my phone with No button under ANDROID OR WINMO, my touch doesn't work. But if I wake up with back button windows button home button yes button, the phone wakes up properly AND touch works. Android of course doesn't work with the original radio, so I wasn't launching Android with the last test.
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE AT ALL?? It looks like hardware fault, but touch loss IS related to NO button!
I will send my phone to warranty anyway but it will happen after the holiday (not before mid september)
IF ANYONE have an issue like this, PLEASE post.
I just want to make sure this issue isn't related to Android porting. If it is, this might be an important info. Maybe it may help devs fixing the general touch screen and wake up problems. Also everybody TRY waking up Android with the yes/send button to see if it helps with your wake up or sod issues and provide feedback. Also it may help with the phone not responding after hangup in Android. There is something hardware going at the background with the no/hangup button. I know this issue is hardware fault but still may shed light to our problems with touch screen and wake up issues. Maybe there is something hardware or firmware inside the phone waking up the digitizer. I know that hangup/no/end button is internally different than the other buttons, something like it shares the power button function that is usually on the top of the device with other htc devices. (Mine is a european hd2 and the hangup button is not red) I also wasn't using an overclocking kernel.
Please think twice before posting, and don't post anything useless. I am absolutely no noob, you can search my previous 200+ posts. I wouldn't post anything unless I am definitely sure. And I have a feeling that this thread has the potential to help or make something come out. If it doesn't, no harm done.

since most of the time inwinmo or android the no or yes button pop up generally on the same side in both os's and , taking in consideraton it might be a hardware issue , i would say you issue might be a harsware issue undr the screen when you touch no...wild guess

I was the same problem.... but it is even worst for me now...
Before, at least work touch others buttons... now my touchscreen DON'T WORK. :-(
I suppose that it's a hardware problem :-(

BIt strange this one to be honest I think it may just be your device as there are now hundreds of users of android on the hd2 and this is extremely rare. Hopefully a dev will look into and find a possible solution but I doubt it. If I was you I would put it back to stock and send it off to HTC for a new one. Even if a dev manages to find the problem you will have a new or as new hd2

I have been trying and I must say that I sort of do share your experience. The most left button (referred to as yes) awakes the phone just right as where the most left (No) takes its time to start the phone. I haven't had any noticable touch issues that could be related to these hard buttons yet.. (I think)
But I do think you have a point.

Interesting, I had something similar. I was using elegancia rom v1 for the longest time, with all my android builds, no problems. Then I went to chunkydroid rom, and had a few issues, with multiple android installs (one of which was my original that was working before.)
Then I rebooted into chunkydroid, (windows), and had the same issue. It was strange. I tried a few other roms, same problem. Turned off the phone, next day, reflashed chunky again, and hyperdroid 1.1, no issues since. (Only difference, which I don't know if it's related, but again, might help, is that I was overclocking. I have since not let anything go above 998 in setcpu, and even removed all builds that were overclocking. I though it might have had something to do with it (and the phone wasn't warm at all.)
I have not been able to duplicate the problem since though (even with overclocking just to see). So I'm pretty stumped. I'm sure the devs will work it out.

I have taken to pressing the yes/send key to wake up my phone as it seems more consistent than pressing the end key. My theory is that multiple wake up/sleep messages are being sent on the end key and the system gets confused. Some sort of debounce might help.
Just my thoughts.
Running shui8 realstock rmnet with micyprima r9.

It seems waking up the phone with the Yes/Send button somehow seems better with current builds and kernels.
I am asking everybody reading this thread to try waking up their Android devices with the yes/send key and share their experience if it is making their Android wake up quicker with less SODs.
Note: I am still using yes key wake up as a workaround for my hardware touchscreen fault. Still absolutely works everytime. I found out that if I accidentally try to wake up with the no/hangup key I need to wait about 10-15 seconds before yes/send key does its magic again.

well, i tried there is absolutely no difference between any hard button. if i have sod, none of them solves... actually its not sod i think, when you try to put standby and wake up several times quickly, screen stops responding for a while. you need to wait at least 15 seconds between each standby and wake up. can i fix this? or this is the sod?

Waking up with the yes/send button would not make any difference if your phone can wake up good with the no/hangup button already. But we are trying to find out if yes/send button wakes up better in long term usage. (no/hangup button sometimes can't wake up and that is the sod refers to)

SOD happened to me few times too with the NO/Hangup button and if/when that happens, if you press NO/Hangup button for long(for the menu with the turn off the phone,reboot,plane mode,...etc options) screen comes back BUT sometimes it locks the screen brightness to lowest possible setting(with %0 actually it doesn't completely turns off as you know).
Other than that "bug" NO/Hangup button works fine for me but as the OP, YES button is more stable and no SODs happen with the YES button...
Btw there is no difference for me YES button vs NO/Hangup button by means of quickness... Both works the same speed unless of course there is no SOD with the NO/Hangup button...
Just wanted to share my experience...

This thread is awesome
Thanks for this thread. I have been trying to use any android build for at least a full day with no success. Ive used different winmo roms and radios such as chucky and miri roms. I still ran into sod's. After waking with the yes/button i have had no sod issues since then, Once again awesommmmmmmme thread.

After some time my digitizer died almost completely. (Issue became worse) It is currently being handled under warranty. (digitizer is replaced)
But at least with a lot of feedback from this thread and other threads, it has come out that, waking up the phone with the YES/CALL/SEND green button is BETTER than waking up with the NO/END/POWER red button for SOD reasons.

any solution to this issue yet because i just started having this exact same problem w/ my HD2 yesterday before that it was perfectly normal and all the suddon the Power/END/NO button wake up cause the screen to not respond to the touch at all however wake up w/ home,back,menu,call button the touch screen works is back to normal
still can't figure out if its a hardware or software problem cause i also tried flashing bunch of roms/radios/and android roms as well and even went back to stock rom in hope for a solution

waking with green is about 2s faster for me.

Same thing happens to me before 2 days.I tried many hard resets,roms,radios and my screen didnt work.I couldnt even login in wm.
My screen was completely dead.The last thing i did,before my screen goes unresponsive was to push no/hangup button in android to open it
At first also i thought it was a g-sensor issue,but then realise that it was much more than it.
Until the moment i read this thread
The way it worked for me
I open the device with no button of course,made a soft reset from red hole and i wait until the device goes to standy itself.Then i open it from send button and voila touch is back !!!!
Strange thing but it works.Thank you very much you are a genius

sure the touch comes back when it wakes up using all other buttons except the power/end button so why is that all the sudden the power/end button causes the screen to go unresponsive
like for say when i hold the power/end key to open the pHONES OPTIONS in windows or android once the PHONES OPTIONS shows up and i try to click on power off or reboot on the screen the touch doesn't respond so the only way to reset or power off the device completely is the either use the reset button in the back or pull the battery out
i'm going to be sending it under warrenty/insurance to t-mobile and hopefully get a replacement cause i'm so use to the power/end button to wake up my device...

Guys be extremely carefull when using hard buttons in android.Finally my problem with screen is not the end button but the back arrow button.This button is necessary for using android and i have pushed it many many times the last months as i am using android.Νοw every time i pushed it my touchscreen stops responding.Τhe last time i pushed it my screen stopped responding(i thought for ever) and didnt knew the exactly reason that this happens.Because i didnt want to send the device to htc (firstly i must send it to expansys in france and they will send it to htc) and take it back at christmas i decided to go to a local mobile service.I wasnot mind for warranty cause i wouldnt be able to live 4 weeks without hd2.I was ready to give 600euros to buy desire hd
Result from service
At firstly he said to me that hd2 have no touchscreen problem and it works ok
I paid 20euros for opening the device and took it back.At first 5 minutes my screen stopped responding again and didnt knew the reason.For my good luck i leave the device untouched 10 minutes and the screen come back again.Then i used it and the time i pushed the back button the screen stopped working,fortunatelly for little seconds.Now i know.My screen stop responding when i push back button.So i change the keylayout to my android build and now i push send key instead of back and volume up key for menu and volume down for power on-off and hd2 works perfect after 24 hours without touching the back button
Also in monday i will go to service again to fix the button problem

Same issue with me
Exactly same issue with me. I have been using Winmo and Android on and off in my HD2. couple of weeks back, touch didnt respond after waking up the device from standby by pushing endkey.
tried everything - flash/stock rom/removed SD card/ hard reset/clear storage/custom rom/ battery pull out etc...
touch worked suddenly and only when i slightly touch the end key instead of pushing it fully, the start menu opened..this happened for few days and when ever i push the end key...screen goes unresponsive. all other hardware buttons are working fine and if at all i push end key the issue starts.
unfortunately my friend pushed the end key once and the screen never responded after this....now am using my old p3450 htc touch...
i think if we change the AP BOARD (Flex ribbon-keyboard chip) everything will go back to normal coz its not the problem with digitizer or the lcd of the software for sure.
trying to order one in ebay, we can change this ourselves...no need to send it to service centers and waste money on it.
if any of you have done this already...let me know if it worked for you.

guys dont know if it is allready known but there is a app called sidebar style swkey
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9726110#post9726110 which puts software buttons in the screen.This app is definitely button saver

HD2 New Weird Screen wont unlock issue - help

this is a new problem for me. I have been using the most recent Dutty ROM together with Mdeejay Android ROM without any problems. All of a sudden, when I try to unlock the screen after STANDBY, it just wont register my touch, as if I am not touching it. It boots up fine, and on the first unlock works fine, but when the screen lock goes on again (after every standby) it just wont unlock. So I am stuck (I use Exchange and our policy forces the lock after standby, so I have to use it - and its worked fine for ages).
If I boot into Android, it works fine, the unlock works fine, yet strangely when I try to shut the power down, THAT screen also doesnt register me touching it.
I have hard reset but even before I load an app or do anything, the problem exists.
I also reflashed a DUTTY ROM. Same problem.
I tried CHT lockscreen - same issue. After Standby, screen doesnt register my touch.
Anyone have any ideas?

Same problem for me.. Restoring a backup image after being forced to hard reset this morning and now suddenly my HD2 won't wake up after sleeping. Pressing my end key only lights up my buttons but I have to pull the battery to reset. I'm thinking it's related to me having CHT installed, yours however might be a different problem.

I had something similar. It was right after I had installed CHT 2.0 and was looking to make the top and bottom bars transparent. I found a cab that claimed it would do this and installed it. Sorry, I don't recall what cab it was and I have deleted it. When I rebooted Sense would hang and if it got into a lock it would only move the slider a little where it would stop. Luckily, I had done a backup that morning right after I installed CHT 2.0 with Sprite so I restored and all was well.
I don't know if this is of help but I figured I'd throw it out there.

it wakes up, but wont register when I try to swype the unlock screen.

Your lucky you get that far lol.. I don't get any waking up. Plus I now uninstalled S2U2 and still no change. Disabled all locks of any kind and still frozen with sleep of death with in 1 min of hitting power to sleep it. I REALLY don't want to to a hard reset and install everything from scatch.. UGH.

weird update...
It has something to do with which key i witch the device on with. If I use the phone key, I can swype the unlock. If I use the power key, it doesnt register.
Another related issue: when i hold the power key to switch off, it wont register me touching power off or reboot etc. so I have to take the battery out to switch off. Its the same in Android.
Anyone know? Hardware issue?

same
im having the exact same issue. I have flashed 3 different roms and flashed to the newest radio (2.15).
I started out using energy rom, didnt help. Flashed a newer energy rom, didnt help. Now im using the dusk rom, same issue.
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!

It's a quite common digitizer problem lately... it seems the HD2's digitizer is failing on some units, possibly because of usage with android? my father's device acted the same way, only it sometimes did register touch and other times, not.
My device doesn't have these problems, yet. But seeing that a lot of people here are experiencing these issues, and with the notion that I use android pretty much all the time since I first booted my device, i'm pretty sure i'll experience it soon as well..
Make no confusion thou, the assumption that android effects the digitizer are purely my own thoughts on this matter, no such thing has been proven and the conclusion that android is effecting our HD2s is based purely on the statistics of touch screen failures in the last few months since android has been made publicly available in a working form.
EDIT:
Those seeking A solution, as far as I know, the only solution is sending your unit to HTC for repairs, you'll get it back with a note that says that they replaced your digitizer or your screen, at least these are the reports I heard from the other folks whom followed this procedure.
Good luck.

HTC HD2 Screen Lock
I have only used Android a few times on this 'phone and it has a standard HTC/O2 ROM installed so it must just be a problem with the top part of the digitiser. With android running the unlock is at the bottom and is unaffected.
Is there any way of testing the digitiser before deciding whether to get a repair sorted,

A friend was complaining to me about something like this since last week. I could not figure it out so I went ahead and installed Android cm7 and still have the same issue.
Until I read this post after searching through the forums all over Screen now unlocks perfectly fine but only using the green Phone icon. If I try to wake the screen with the red Power button, the screen is unresponsive.
Thanks for the info.

Already happened tome its a hardware issue can't be fixed so if you still have warranty on ur phone send it to htc for repairs b because it tends to get worse n worse soon other keys will start to give in I think that's one reason why most android phone been switching to capacitive buttons because hardware causes this sorta issues and send it in for repairs to get it fixed
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

the same issue with me , is there is any solution for that .

Wakeup the phone using the send button.it will work

[Q] HD2 Lockscreen & Power Screen problem

Hey guys, sorry for putting of "one-of-these" posts, but I've searched as many forms as I could to no avail regarding this particular problem: my lock-screen and my power/reboot screens are completely unresponsive when brought up. Well actually, the lock-screen will unlock with maybe 10-14 tries (by pressing the power button to turn the screen off and pressing it again to turn the screen on) but even thats kind of wonky.
I've flashed every Android Rom I could get my grimey hands on to see if that would fix the problem, and it doesn't, I've even tried dropping back to WinMo 6.5, nope. Now if I flash WP7, than the lock-screen is responsive, but I'm an Androidian and can't use WP7 for more than maybe 20 seconds.
I'm unsure as to whats causing the problem, at first I thought it may just be a hardware malfunction (as I use my HD2 to watch movies and TV shows quite a bit) but after flashing WP7 and finding that to work well I'm at a loss.
I'm running on Magldr 1.12
SPL-2.08 HSPL 8G
If there is anyone who could help, please do, as I love my HD2 flashed with Android....I'd really hate to have to flash WP7 to use my phone.
Thanks in advance!

I read this somewhere so it might work for you. Turn off auto brightness and screen rotation, it supposedly reduces the wakeup lag.

Huzzah! Thanks a bunch, that little trick helped out!
Nvrmnd, it worked maybe for about 4-5 unlocks and now reverted back to the old problem. Power-off/reboot still doesn't work.

I'm having the same problem.
Like you, I've been flashing many other roms (stocks, 6.5, and androids) and still same problem.
Have you fixed yours yet?

same problem

Same here... Any one able to find out the solution?

This exact problem happened to my phone today
If im understanding well, the screen is no more toucheble, i mean the bottons ( in the bottom) are working and the phone react to them but the screen does not react to the touches....

This seems more like a bad digitizer....try to press the power button down (kind a hard) and at the same time try to unlock your phone or touch the screen to see if it reacts to your touches and if it does, you have a bad digitizer because the minute you release the power button you are going to have the same issues again...the digitizer connector goes under the power button and it sometimes breaks causing that issue, you need to replace your digitizer, no way around it, sorry.

Strange Touchscreen NAND Issues

ok, I have a strange issue that I can not seem to find the answer to. Whenever my phone locks after not being used etc. When I wake it up, the touchscreen will not let me unlock. It takes me close to 50 attempts to do so. However once I actually am successful in getting it unlocked. The touchscreen works flawlessly. I have tried several different builds, all of them I have the same issue. I have done Task29 and started fresh on that front each time. I tried a couple different radios. Any suggestions?

**** man i got the same problem! i tried hard reset, rom updates, other buils but it wont go away!
plz someone help us!

Hi,I'm using BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA GINGER 2.3.3 RAM_V5 works great so far the best that I tried.After u flash android it's recommended to wait few mins until it loads everything then do a shut down - not a restart.then again u wait few mins and u do a second shut down. after that the os should work fine ,at least for me works great. if that doesn't help ,try to reinstall everything from the start..hspl radio etc.

You could just turn off the lockscreen? Get 'NoLock' from the market. That should do the business if you want.

I've got the same problem since 5 days, It started when I started using WIFI and turning off my 3G ..

you have the same problem my hd2 has....it is a hardware issue. the screen becomes unresponsive. if you still have warranty send it in for a repair. if not... repair it yourself. it's not that hard. the screen wire is probably just loose.
follow this video to take apart your hd2.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cL-jnUKufC4

Sounds like a similar problem that I'm experiencing. If I wake the lockscreen with the send key instead, it works. When I boot I get exactly one shot with the end key then it locks up again. I'm able to use it with the send key, but concerned it might get worse. If anyone finds the solution please post.

I actually for the first time had this, and I know this is going to get flamed but its not the Screen thats the problem. And I think (BIG IF) that the dreaded unresponsive screen issue that we keep reading about Majority of them I think is not the screen.
I have 2 HD2s and both have worked flawlessly without any problems, but today I was playing with my test phone that doesnt get used that much and I noticed after installing a new rom that my screen after I played with it for a bit went black (sleep) and when I woke it up it wouldnt respond, first thing that crossed my mind is I just lost my digitizier, and started wondering okay why, I went as far to re-flash WinMo stock HD2 rom, same issue, so I decided its time to find out exactly whats causing this, and I found it. I wasnt going to make a post again cause I figured people would be "Not another thread about this" but I know whats causing the screen issue, at least this is my suspicision and I have temporarily fixed mine.
The problem is HARDWARE, The Culprit: THE END KEY (Red Button)! The Answer to "How or Why": The "End" key is used to turn the phone on and off or to put it in sleep mode, it is the most used key out of all 5 keys, it is used probably 7x more then all the rest, Its used for just about everything, now how does this cause the unresponsive screen? Easy, the phone lock or sleep is associated with this key, Its the only way to make the screen go off other then waiting for the time out period. Because by habit we mostly hit the end key to turn the screen off the phone automatically associates this with locking the phone, once that happens the screen becomes unresponsive because of several reasons: 1) The contact under the actual key has dirt which causes the button to stick in the down position, 2) the contact is bent which the "end" key is pressing down on the contact which is making contact with the board and causing it to be unresponsive, 3) The contact is worn. This is the reason why if you press the end key a few times (anywhere between 2-10) and then try the screen responds, this is cause your "unsticking" the key which then lets the screen respond.
Most of us when we hit the end key press to the far right to avoid hitting the back key (The button with the left arrow) which causes the end button to lean toward the right. But you can wake the phone up with the other 4 keys to the lock screen which will allow you to unlock the phone. As a temporary fix for myself, on my test phone I now make sure to press on the left side of the key to prevent this from happening, since its a test phone I'm not worried, but the real solution is to take the phone apart and clean the underside of the end button, and the actual contact with alcohol to remove the build up of dirt and whatever else. And also if the contact frame is bent to GENTLY bend the right side back up alittle to stop it from happening, or sending it to htc and letting them fix it.
We have to RE-TRAIN ourselves to start using the other keys to wake the phone up and not rely on the end key so much.
Hope this helps anyone finally why we have this problem. And if it works for you then hit the Thanks button

[Q] Strange problem, when phones locked, screen is non responsive

I have the HTC HD2 Leo 1024 version, and I've encountered this strange problem with my phone recently. Whenever the phone is locked via the red button, and you try to unlock it with the same red button, the screen is almost non responsive. Sometimes it will work, sometimes it won't. To be more descriptive, what I mean by non responsive is.. if you try to wake the phone with the power button, the screen won't recognize any of your swipes. so you re-lock it.. wake it again with a different button, and it suddenly recognizes movement again.. just not with the power button, which is really annoying (especially on WP7 because you can only unlock with one button)
I was on CMYLXGO's Android NAND build when it first started happening. I figured, oh just a corrupt file somewhere, must need to reflash.
So I task29'd, Magldr 113, to WP7 (because I missed it ..) and I'm still encountering the same problem.
Was just wondering if anyone else has encountered this or has any solution for it.
On the android build you can bring up the lock screen with all 5 of the buttons on the bottom, the screen would be responsive with all of the buttons EXCEPT for the red power button.
On the WP7, the only button to unlock the phone is with the red power button, so it's a bit more annoying this time around considering I have to press it multiple times before the screen is responsive. I can't remember when this started happening, if I had to guess, I would say it started with a phone locking up so I had to remove the battery instead of doing a safe reset. Also I recently just got a DATA plan so that might have something to do with it (although I doubt it).
IF anyone has any idea what's going on please help , Much appreciated.

Search! I remember at least 4-5 different threads about the exact same problem u r describing.
You've done a great job at isolating any software side issues, but all the other threads conclude it is a hardware issue (red button is used more, wears out faster, causes it to mess with the touch digitizer circuitry that is located close to the "strip" under the buttons bar).

Ah I'm sorry man, I tried searching but I guess my search skills are still noobish haha.
Well I really appreciate it, I guess I'll start looking for some fixes now !!
