I think there is something wrong with my digitizer. I'll be using the phone and the screen will act as if its being continuesly pressed somewhere else so it won't scroll and I can't hit icons until I turn it off and on again. Not soft reset. It happens almost everything time I use it. It has happened several times while writing this. Any ideas? Something under digitizer?

Take it back!
Not an option. I bought it privately.

OK, so you bought it privately and returning is not an option, so how about some more information. Has the phone been rooted? What ROM are you running? Have you tried a full wipe to see if that solves the problem?
I have had the phone for a couple months it just started doing this. I'm running liberated fr007. Rooted. Have not tried hard reset.

I thing I'm having the same problem.
My touchscreen get crazy completely randomly, sometimes I'm typing an sms and its almost imposible to write, cause it just get stuck even on the "P" letter or on the emoticons thing of the keyboard.
Sometimes I just can't switch between my homescreens (its like the thing refuses to work), what I do is switch off and on the screen (the slide to unlock works, but not the homescreens) and after several attempts it comes back to normal.
But it all started when I installed the latest version (6.1.1) of CyanogenMod.
Did anyone get a solution?
I don't want to roll back to a previous version or try another ROM.
Thanks!
Try to fix superuser permissions idk id probably just try to reinstall after clean swipe and restore everything with my backup pro. Also check the temp of the phone high temps around 100 mess up the touchscreen responding.
Signatures are fancy.
sorry... but im kind of a noob
How do I check the permisions?
What should I look for?
Thanks!

i would try doing a complete wipe and installing it again. if you've been using your phone with no errors previously, then the issues shouldn't be with your hardware but perhaps with a bad install of the current rom.

would love to know your outcome on this - as it is happening on my phone as well
running a FR008 - was running perfectly until early this morning - then the same behavior that you were getting.
Dear all,
i have a Dell Streak 5, with following specs:
Android Version: 2.2.2
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9-perf
Build Nr: 15609
The issues are:
- If i use the phone on my pocket with screen to my leg, when i need to unlock screen, i usualy can't, its kind of crashed...
- If i have the wireless ON, and go out from home, usually phone crashes , and when i go to use it, i see there was a reset. Seems that this wireless is kind of instable and make mobile phone crash.
I would like to upgrade something to try to solve this small issues, can anybody help me?
Thank you
Tiago
I forgot:
Baseband Version: GAUSB1A135100-EU
thanks.
I don't know what to tell you as far as wifi crashing your phone. That's never happened to me. As far as the other issue, seems pretty common. I think the recommended "fix" is to not carry it with screen facing your leg. I'm sure that's not what you want to hear....but its the best I got.
i can't explain why you wifi makes your phone crash, but for the impossibility to unlock the screen. i had the same problem, and somebody told me the problem was the heat of the leg that makes the screen tilt. so i bought an otterbox case with a belt clip, so with the screen untouched it works perfectly.
for the screen against leg issue, I just toggle the power off then on and it works.
yes, i agree to lordmorphous, don't face your screen to your leg..
just in case, you may try to calibrate it, or if the problem still, maybe you can re-flash to another latest stock rom.
I have never experienced the screen issues involved with facing the screen towards my leg, and I always put my Streak in my pocket with the screen facing my leg. I guess so far I've gotten lucky.

The ROM makes no difference. I run 360 on my Streak.
I met a guy in a train station, and since there are not a lot ppl with such mob, i decided to ask. In fact, with screen faced outside, the issue finished. Strange..
Related with stock ROM, i think this is my next step: upgrade! the process dell.com.blablabla is always crashing, and sometimes i need to wait to use the phone. awww, not to say that i can't synch with my outlook
I am a bit disappointed with this phone/tab, i was expecting that it could work better.
Any tips on ROM? I am actually trying to use titanum backup to backup data, but it says again cannot root! How i root it?
Thanks again.
Tiago
Everything You Always Wanted To Know About The Streak But Were Too Busy Bricking It
That link there is your first step, for it explains how to root and how to do various other things. Now...I tend NOT to recommend using Titanium Backup since in my experience it screws up when restoring items. Your mileage may vary.
As to a ROM, stick with a stock ROM for now until you are comfortable with the rooting process. I have attempted to use GingerStreak but had a problem with the camera app so I had to go back. Flashing a ROM could fix your issues since a bad flash has been known to be source of the force closes.
Hi again,
finaly i tried a simple method: the gingerbreak, and rooted. Now that is rooted, i want try a diff Android version (from 2.2 to 2.3?).
Is there any recommendation?
Of course first i would like to backup all the data (already from the SDCard) but i am talking about the ContactList (i tried to use the simple: export, but onde again i got an error :/)
Any tips?
Thanks for all the help.

I've been having lots of little problems too.
My device randomnly decideds to restart time to time. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to it that I've worked out yet. But it's crashing right now and I have to soft reset it.
Another thing, if I have it in normal landscape mode but turn it on while holding it portrait mode or the screen isn't in the same orientation that it was before the screen turned off, Dell Stage often crashes.

Exactly, mine restart very often too, but i think i know why. Try disable wireless before leaving your "home network"... in my case, it solves that crashings... only crash if dell stage crashes too... but most of times, its solved.
The only "bugs" i have are: camera button does not work, and when i turn screen on, the "unlock slide button" is ALWAYS in the portrait position.
I wonder, if this is solved with a new android version, or dell "libraries" update?
Thanks.

for all those who think the problem does show up when u put it in the pocket facing your leg ..... i had the same view two weeks ago when suddenly i ran into this problem. i think best solution is calibrating the screen .....

Calibrating the screen was what i've done when i could not unlock my mob phone for 1 week, i was desperate
After that, i solved all the screen issues using screen outside and not against leg.

I recently wiped all of my phone (factory+cache) and installed the latest 4.0.3 official update from SAMSUNG.
I also enabled the FULL DISK ENCRYPTION while doing this.
I am now waiting to decrypt it to see if this problem persits if I turn the encryption off.
The problem is that if I leave my phone locked for a few hours/minutes it randomly won't turn on the screen again, when I press the power button.
A hard reboot (holding) fixes this everytime. But this is not a fix, we all know.
It never happened on Gingerbread 2.3.5.
I am beginning to suspect there's a bug in the ICS firmware, although it's 4.0.3, it could slip through.
It's hard to say what's causing the trouble. I have connected the phone to USB now. Waiting for the symptom to show again. I assume I can get a good logcat.
adb shell logcat > logcat.txt
So I'm waiting for an error / event of POWER button at this moment, and will keep logging till it produces the same error again.
Regards,
That's called the black screen of death. It's an ICS bug. For now, rebooting seems to be the only solution ice seen on xda.

I can't believe this ! Is this a SAMSUNG or an Android/ICS problem ?
My version is:
4.0.3
IM74K.XXLPQ
Any custom ROMs addressed this issue or how can you avoid this on ICS? Is the only solution to go back to Gingerbread ?
Hi guys, hope your well.
I am having a similar issue too. I am on Hydrogen AOKP Rom, and I get exactly the same. However, apart from just the blank screen, my phone gets extremely hot too.The only way to get it back on is to remove the battery. Very annoying!!
I cant seem to figure what it is. I have tried to search here on XDA for the resolution but to no avail. Could it be the Kernal? The Modem? Tweaking via SetCPU? or a combination of all? Atleast if I could get pointed to the right direction that'll be a start! lol
Are you guys getting the overheating problem too?
Its a bit like continual posting in the wrong forum nobody knows why ??

No overheating (yet) you can help if you can keep logcatting through usb cable till it lock/standby freezes and your screen won't come on when pressing power ..
Install SDK + Drivers, write in commandprompt:
adb shell logcat > save.txt
Wait for the error / freeze where screen won't come on.
Then paste here or upload somewhere might contain a lead to a solution!

Nah!
It's there on all the kernels. I myself am a Siyah user.
I moved back to GB for this weird and terribly serious issue, but that time i didn't know it was a common problem.
This is ICS' best feature for sure.
I really CAN NOT believe how this issue is NOT yet known well and haven't brought in to front line. Google knows about it and yet I haven't seen any official statements about it. How ****in unbelievable or not perhaps? Google way?? Well **** it.
Utter Nonsense. What i wonder is, really, does any Android user actually use the phone but show off only??
I can almost reliably reproduce this problem.
I'm on ICS LP7 stock XEU version. When I have downloads running with Ttorrent, there's an almost 50% chance that the screen will not turn on once it goes to sleep. The phone is not frozen as my downloads continue to run; just that nothing is being shown on the display. If you hold the volume down button you will feel the phone vibrate to tell you it went into silent mode, which means the phone didn't freeze. After about a minute or so if I try again everything will work as normal, until I put the screen to sleep again.

Do the logcat as I provided the correct command to extract it to a file.
Then do your torrent thing, and make it crash- so we can debug !
Used to happen, since I installed latest hydrog3n-ICS rom (13-05) never had those again!

Hi,
It happened to me as well after the ICS update and I tried to plug the AC charger to see what happens, and surprise...the screen turned on .
It's not a fix (especially when away with no accessories) but it's better than nothing, hope this helps; also you should try plugging the USB cable. Tell me if it helps.
Thanks,

So I just recently updated to Nut 's .136 firmware. Sadly the touch screen issue is still there. I have found a temporary solution though. For me, the problem is surely software based. When the touch screen gets buggy, a reboot will always fix it.
I have an app call Fast Reboot Pro installed, which restarts your system without actually restart your phone. I set the app to automatically do a "reboot" every time I unlock the screen. Whenever my screen starts acting buggy, I would just turn off the screen and unlock it.
This seems to fix the problem momentarily. I still hope someone can find a way to fix this for real though.

It's better to reboot locking the screen than unlocking (so you don't wait the reloading micro-time after you unlock)

May I ask what is wrong with the touchscreen on your phone? Although I dread to ask hehe.
The place I touched is not necessarily where the sensor "thinks" I touched. Or sometimes the screen just goes crazy without me touching anything.

My phone stops recognizing touches and restarts at same spot (thats why swype shows trail, but write scrumbled letters) I get really pisssed. I hope they fix it in 4.4 or I will never buy sony again. (looks like anyway only nexus devices or similar. Cause of all the "anti-modding" attitude of producers)
I update to stock .136 and I can't reproduce it anymore. The issue was there on .290 today, I updated and I don't know what to do to get it back, I miss my favorite problem.
BTW, I receive yesterday the phone and in Sony Center they couldn't find the problem and they scratched my phone everywhere, I tested typing *#*#7378423#*#* and it was there again, the worst service I ever had.

I will try some games like N.O.V.A 3 or H.A.W.X, both of them give me problems with .290, and I will report later.
i get the same problems. It happens during writing on keyboard and browsing on facebook app, imgur app ...
I already play N.O.V.A and some games and still not have the problem after update to .136. I also can put my phone on the bed and use it with one finger. I hope it will stay in this way forever.
i havent been able to reproduce it with .136 since i changed screen protector, no ASF, can't use bare screen because problem is maximized, happier than ever with this phone

hi guys..
Got my new phone at the launching day.. everything runs perfect..
But yesterday and today i encounter a small issue..
please note that i have fingerprint scanner lock on my phone..
when i pressed the home button just to wake the screen, the screen didn't respond.. only the side buttons lid..
the screen remained black after the second press too.. then i pressed the power button once and the screen woke..
the thing was that when i pressed the power button after this incident the home screen game me a third option, apart from emergency calls (left) and alternative password (right), Unlock via Google placed to the middle..
this happened also today twice..
Any suggestions on this ?? did anyone encounter this ??
please note that i didn't use any other locking method except fingerprint scanner and the home button responds fine in any other case.. Thanx..
I randomly get unresponsive touches when trying to open an app in the app drawer folders. Haven't had the home button issue though

im having similar issues while on a call, i cant type in the extension, i touch the number pad and it does nothing. I turn off screen and now it doesnt want to turn back on. Like anything new, there will be a few hiccups, but samsung are usually fast for that first firmware push. I remember for the S4, i got it on launch day and the same day a new firmware was available, the note 3 took about 10 days before that initial firmware that fixed the few most obvious issues. Dont bring it back, just be patient.

Hey man,
Had the same issue with my S5, I think the wait for the fix is easier to handle if you know there are other guys having the same issue rather than having something wrong with your specific device. So imho it'd be great if some other guys would reply just to know it's a common issue.
To me SGS5 is a great phone even with all the rants and reviews against buying it, there will be updates, we just need to be patient.
Thanks for the post!

I can confirm that i have similar issues too.
Sometimes (2-3 a day) the screen is not waking up from sleep state when i press the home or the power button.
The solution is that i need to press the power button to sleep the device and then press again or press the home button to wake up.
Not a big deal but i hope that this issue is not hardware related and a firmware fix will solve it.
Apart from this, it's really a great smartphone.
Hi,
Just a small update, the issue replicates also when using the Samsung S View case, just bought one and I still get the same behaviour as with the home and power button (i.e. only the softkeys light up, the screen doesn't wake up).
I haven't been able to consistently replicate though, but it seems to happen after long sleep periods.
All the best!

Hi !
One question.
Which ROM version do you have ?
The ...ANCE, or ANCF ?
thank you all for your replies.. its good to know that its not my device..
Hopefully with the new update they will fix it..
by the way yesterday i missed a call, do to that problem.. the phone was ringing but the screen was sleeping..
So i decided to chance my ROM, from EUR-Greece to NEE-Norther Countries.. Also did a hard factory reset after that.. Volume up + Power + Home.. Also deleted the cache partition..
I used odin.. No problems found.. and Kies recognizes the phone..
So i will check how this goes and get back to you..

I have the XEH G900FXXU1ANCE...
I was just thinking that the G900FXXU1ANCF is maybe a little bit newer, as the build number is higher (1186806) So that's a different rom for sure.
