It started happening maybe 2 days ago. Im running the newest version of Hyperdroid and have never had any problems. Whenever i turn my phone on and attempt to unlock it by either sliding the tab, turning the dial, or sliding the lense down, the screen doesnt respond to my touch. I have to try like 3 times before i can finally unlock my phone, its super annoying.
Anyone have a fix for this or advice?
Thanks!!
Set my phone to "menu unlock" but when i put menu, the touchscreen wont work! It's getting really frustrating. Could the phone be going bad?
UPDATE: now my touchscreen wont work at all! pretty much my phone is useless now. anyone help?

Your digitizer is dead. If you are still under warranty, I suggest you flash back your WM stock and send your phone back in for repair. Unfortunately, there is no other way around this. Read here for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12105680&postcount=1

Hi everyone
I have a problem with my hd. It starts yesterday. My touchscreen is responsing randomly. I explain, when I touch anywhere on the screen, the only thing that happens is the backlight switching on. The four keys on the bottom of the screen are not responding too.
I dont know, if it is a hardware or a software problem. I hard reset my phone, but same thing. Does anyone get an idea?
Thanks for your answers.

Hey!
Im having this exact same problem at the moment. Started a few days ago but kept coming back on, but now, 3 days later the screen is totally unresponsive. Im pretty sure its a hardware problem because I have hard reset it too, but now I can not even get it past the alignment screen.
Really hope someone knows whats going on with our phones so we can fix them!

Someone has an idea? or i have to bring it to get it repair. Guess i have no choice....
search back through these pages and you'll see this happening to alot of people, me included, check the stats under my name and all posts under my name, and you can read some of my long winded descriptions of the issue, if you can manage to put the stock ROM back on there, I would !!, and try for a warranty fix, or else (like me) you are on your own....., I was without a way to flash stock ROM back, so as it stands now, I've got a HD, sittin at home for parts, I'm pretty sure it's the motherboard, as some people have suggested, there are screens available on ebay but no motherboards..... so I'm screwed...., good luck !!
Well, it seems my touch screen is messed up!!..Anyone got some advice?
More often than not my touch screen wont respond at all to me, the lock screen wont work, and if it ever does it seems that when im navigating through screens it will think i pressed a button higher up than i actually did, it makes texting a nightmare!..I mean im still on the stock rom that came with the phone when i bought it from vodafone.
I thought maybe a hard reset would solve this, but since my rabbit chewed through my Mini USB cable i haven't been able to back up evertyhing on the phone, not that im sure a hard reset would help in this case!!
Any advice or anything?..I mean if you need more info i can tell you as much as i know!
Thanks in advance guys!
take it back to vodaphone for an exchange, it shouldn't do what you describe, and you can get a new usb cable off fleabay for a quid or so, you'll need one to charge it anyway,

the stock vodafone rom sucks.. try to calibrate your screen in settings if that doesnt help take it back.. if it does help, buy a new cable and flash it with HSPL or a goldcard..
I worry about taking the phone back, simply due to the fact Voda. don't stock it to consumer customers anymore only business, and other people on there forums who have either lost or had there faulty hand sets have been palmed off with some new sony phone.
And i would try the screen calibration but the phone wont even unlock for me, it's refusing to recognise i am even touching the screen so it wont let me unlock it.
I have been using Ultimate Droid 3.2.5 for a couple of months now and a few days ago i pick up my phone to make a call and the screen doesn't respond when I touch the screen. Only the bottom buttons and volume buttons work. At first, if i I play with the buttons at the bottom i can usually get the touch screen to repond. I tried to wipe data/dactory reset and reinstall rom but now I cant even get it to work like before. Only thing I can do now is answer calls and call back the last person that called me. Has anyone else had this problem?PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks!
Did you eventually find out what cause this issues?
I think my phone is behaving similar, I'm using different Android ROMS for quite a while now, and suddenly without any apparent reason the touchscreen isn't responding very often after waking up the screen. It won't happen if the screen is on and the touch screen is working, only after a wakeup..
Sometimes it's just impossible to get it working again, and I'm forced to wait a while until it decides to respond again. It kinda feels like the phone is forgetting to wake or initialize the touchscreen properly.
ROM and Kernel changes didn't solve this so far.
I think the issues originally started with Typhoons CM7 NIGHTLY 3.7.1 / tytung 12.4v3 for me.
Actually I never found out what the problem was. I just flashed it back to stock and had T-Mobile send me another one. That was in May and actually a few days ago it happened to my phone again. So this time they sent me an HD7. It really sicks that they dont have that phone anymore. Cant do sh*t with this HD7!
Same here the Power Button is the problem, you just have to train yourself not to use it. I use Button Savior and Button Remapper. On my second HD2, luckily T-Mobile sent me a HD2, but that was in like March, right before my one year was up.
Make sure you keep this one working cuz there will be no more HD2! I may find one on Craigslist or something. This HD7 and Windows 7.5 really sucks monkey nuts!!!

Yea I played around with WP7 on the HD2 when it first became avaliable and wasn't really worth the time and trouble it took to get it on there. One month later I went back to NAND and haven't looked back.
Same here! Registering Zune was a problem at first.
Thanks for your quick response! Yeah, seems to be a problem with the end button / flex connector of digitizer
I found another helpful thread about this issue: The Infamous Unresponsive Digitizier Screen Possibly Solved!
Obviously you need to replace the digitizer to fix this problem.
I'm sticking to the solution of not touching the button at all, there are apps to turn off the screen and shutdown the phone. At least waking with any other buttons works most of the time for now, but it's not really a long-term solution.
Wish I would have saw that thread b4 i sent my phone back!!!
Hey guys had my phone like a week or so and already it seems its faulty able to see lockscreen try to slide up moves a few cm's a time and never fully unlocks, able to use camera button to access phone but still unable to click anything via touchscreen other then lockscreen.

seems a little bit like my problem with TS, go and read my answer in "How is your optimus holding up" thread
my phone came back from service with new software, but i had to send it back again, coz it's probably a hardware failure
...i would send it back.

Im downgrade and Upgrade the Version... but it still same? anyone know which component is problem?
my phone came back from service about a week ago, everything seems fine so far
it seems, the problem was with the mainboard, it was changed, i'm not sure if they changed TS digitizer or so
Hey guys,
right now my touch screen only responds after a reboot. Until today it has always worked, but during the last days I discovered that when I want to unlock the display I have to switch the display off and on before.
Has anyone an idea to help me out? No matter if it is an android or the stock rom, the problem stays the same...
