Xperia Mini Pro Touchscreen Not Responding - Hardware Hacking General

Hey Guys..
Recently my Xperia Mini Pro touchscreen started to not respond. First it began as I slide out the HW keyboard the touch screen was not responsive. Then I slide the HW keyboard back in. It was normal. The shortly after, In the normal keyboard position the touch screen began not to respond. It sometimes responds. Mostly its stuck. I can navigate and operate the phone using the HW keyboard. But touch is not working. Sometimes i can fix it by holding the power key and bringing up the menu for shutdown and selecting shutdown with the HW keyboard out and the after switching to normal mode and cancelling it. Then the touch responsiveness comes back. But this doesn;t work all the time. I have updated the OS via PC companion and did a repair and completely reset the phone. But the problem still remains. Can some one please help me out. IS this problem fixable? then how can i fix it. Do i have to change the phone completely. is it useless now.. I need urgent help. If there are any tips, methods to fix this or at least understand what happened and how, I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks in advance.

Touch screen not responding

When my HD2 returns from standby (switched on by the right hand button) the touchscreen is sometimes unresponsive. At first this just seemed like a short delay so I ignored it but this week it has refused to allow me to unlock it. The screen seems to be frozen.
I have tried turning the HD2 of and on - not completely off as I can't get to this function without being able to use the screen - and if I do this enough the screen will suddenly become responsive. The problem even survives a soft reset.
Yesterday, I decided to do a hard reset thinking I have done one reg tweak too many. After that the screen seemed fine and I could return the HD2 from stand by okay by sliding the 'lock' button. This morning the problem has reappeared and I again find that the screen will not respond to touch but then suddenly seems to work.
Anyone had the same problem or have any suggestions?
Thanks
I have the same problem as you on my brand new HD2. Did you allread have a solution for that?
folks, do report your issues here .. i have a feeling that this is a known hardware issue by HTC and they are just keeping veru quiet about this.

typing issue

typing seems to messed up lately buttons get get pressed makes ms feel like itisn't working correctly

i have the same issue sometimes. it happens if the phone is very cold, if its connected to pc or mains charger or if the battery is 15% or below. i uninstalled the sensitivity tweak which helped a bit

It might be worth realigning the screen. Go to Settings/Menu/All Settings then select the System icon, and then 'Screen/Align Screen'
You will get the old Windows Mobile 'crosshair' alignment screen which was originally designed for stylus input, but using the normal part of your finger that you'd use for typing, just press over the crosshairs. This may or may not help!
I'm finding that typing is OK, provided I have "aligned" the screen.
However when switching from portrait to landscape alignment goes out of whack. Ok when reverted back to portrait. Also following a soft reset, or switching phone off, a re-alignment of screen is required.
Does the device store the alignment info, or is it reset after each reboot?
Also does device store an alignment profile for both portrait and landscape?
Anyone else notice this, and is there a fix?

...and screen can only be used with the pen? This is a problem i have.
Just switching ist off and on fixes the problem (i have not to reboot).
Seems to be a software problem.
No the screen works well its only the buttons
Absolutely no problems to report with mine???
Yes I am having this same problem as the poster described (back and menu buttons switch off)
Specifically happens after a phone call
Happens to my brothers phone as well and both phones are sourced from different suppliers
Think a software update may fix this? or should i send it back and buy another one?
Thanks
Pretty widespread problem it seems:

I tend to believe it's software-based though

[Q] Touch screen has stopped responding

Today I placed the G2 down on my wireless charger and now the touchscreen has stopped responding. I can still use the power on-off to get to the screen to restart the device but I can't actually restart the device because I can't touch that option.
Has anyone else experienced this? How do I reset the device if I can't use the touchscreen?
Bizarreā€¦ In frustration I tapped multiple fingers on the screen and it started responding to touch input again.
That is strange... I wonder if there's a hard reset function on this phone of something like that happens? I know on the old droid razr you could hold down certain keys and it would reboot the phone (since it didn't have a removable battery either)

[Q] Tytn Blue dot/function key

I just got my Tytn working again (needed a new battery nothing major) and noticed that the function button on the keyboard doesn't work. Every other key/button on the keyboard and device is working fine but that one isn't responding. I've hard reset but that hasn't fixed the problem.
It's not like the device is unusable without it but it would be much more convenient to be able to access symbols without opening the software keyboard.
Could anyone point me in the direction of a fix for this issue. I've searched but all the topics relating to the button seem to assume that the button is doing something in the first place. Is it likely to be a hardware issue when all the other keys are working?
Anyway thanks for the help
Dan
