Problem with touchscreen since 4.4.2 update

Hey there
A friend of mine has the following problem with his Note 3 (completely stock).
Since the latest 4.4.2 OTA update, sometimes suddenly the screen does not respond to touching it with your hand. It does react to the stylus.
Locking and unlocking the screen does the job, but only for a few minutes.
I wiped the phone via stock recovery, but the problem persists.
Anyone with the same problem, or maybe a clue?
Thanks!

Hi
Same problem here,I tried several 4.4.2 official and custom roms but not fixed and I tried these too:
I tried mega wipe and last rom in samfirmware!
I removed my external sd card
And I googled and found there are others with same problem so it shouldn't be hardware problem
p.s.When screen freezes just half of it works! And just doesn't work by fingers and it works by s_pen!
There no way to come back to 4.3 too
What should I do?
Ty in advance
Finally Solved!
Hi
I had same problem
I did everything u said like:
mega wipe and changing rom
custom roms
taking out battery when it's on ( I Did this but I don't know It had any effects on my phone or not!)
taking out external card
But I still Had the Problem
Solution:
But I had a flip cover and I separated that from phone and thanks God,surprisingly It's Fixed and it works like a charm!!! after that I used my original cover and there is no problem till now.
Good Luck
Had the same issue posted it here bit no one responded.
Solution: The flip case I had..there's a problem with it where it locks the screen even when the case is not closed. But lately I had no issue it just seem to gotten fixed by itself.

[Q] Screen rotation dies!! FK!!!!

Same problem but all my sensors show pass via *#0*# sensor checks. Tried nordic i9505 I9505XXUFNB9_I9505NEEFNB2_I9505XXUFNB9_HOME.tar 4.4.2, then SIngapore I9505XXUFNBE_I9505OLBFNB3_I9505XXUFNBE_HOME.tar 4.4.2 all the fken same problem. Screen rotation all fine when I flash firmware, root, then flash CWM touch - everything good. Screen rotate works until the first reboot after all of this which might even be a day or 2 later. As soon as reboot phone, screen rotation dies and it is a huge pain in the arse. Sensors continue to say pass via *#0*#. Every few days i have to re-flash firmware, re-root, then re-CWM touch, no need to factory reset just those 3 steps. Has anyone got any solutions for this yet??
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
I read that if you debloat something like samsung hub on kitkat rotation will stop working.
Maybe you can try reflash firmware again without debloat or debloat but left samsung hub on your phone.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Lollipop Problem

Hi,
Yesterday i have updated my Samsung Galaxy S4 i9400 to Lollipop 5.0 from KitKat. But since then m facing too many problems which were not before:
1. The phone is getting overheated and the battery drains too fast.
2. The Home Screen background wallpaper disappears on its own and then even after applying it, it does not appears.
3. M not able to chcnge the folder icon.
4. The phone blinks around 10 times in a minute.
5. Keyboard disappear when we are in middle of typing a text. This happens mostly when using WhatsApp.
6. Touchwiz UI crashes too very frequently.
7. Not able to change the icon size
8. Knox app is not opening.
There are many issues. I have not rooted my phone and using stock Android. Please suggest some solution for this.
Thanking You

But you need to do one factory reset.

But that will remove the Lollipop right? I will make sure to backup everything. but will i need to re-update my phone? Cant i downgrade it to Kitkat again without rooting?
The factory should not remove the OTA update, but it will wipe your internal storage plus all your installed apps. So you definitely want to back up everything before you go any further. And even if it does wipe the OTA update, you simply download it again and then let it take. You won't have to do the wipe again since you already did it.
Once you upgrade the bootloader to Android 5.0.1 you won't be able to easily revert to Android 4.4.x, if at all.
I am facing the same problem. i did a factory reset after updating.
I am facing exactly as your problem. I hope there's a solution to this except flashing back to kitkat.

lockscreen after lollipop update
Hi guys, hope you can help me,
When my s4 was on kitkat, if i received a message but i take the mobile after a few seconds (when the screen turns off), it would vibrate and the screen will light up automatically
But after the lollipop update when i move my mobile , it will only vibrate, but the screen will not light up. Can anyone tell me how to enable it to light on automatically again.
The overheating issue is well known with Android Lollipop update across devices.
No factory reset can solve that issue.
I have moved out of the official Samsung ROM and am running Exodus 5.1.1 custom ROM without external memory card.
Heat is manageable. However, I feel the best ROM for Galaxy S4 was KitKat 4.4.2.
In that case you can even try using Aurora ROM for S4.

Touch Screen suddenly stopped working

Hi all
A colleague had the display replaced (not sure why) on his Note 3 SM-N9005 a few months ago. Now, suddenly, the touch screen stops working. S-Pen is fine.
Any ideas of what to look for, externally, internally, connectors, etc? Has not been dropped, rooted. Running Lollipop 5.0 Stock
Thanks
First step factory reset .

Tried Factory Reset. Touch screen not working
Then re flashed stock ROM via ODIN, doing clean wipe before hand. Again Touch screen not working
Thinking to downgrade to 4.4.2 Perhaps some incompatibility . . . Just thinking out loud

If you don't mind tripping knox to 0x1 you should try installing twrp or any recovery that let's you use touchscreen, if there you can't still use the touchscreen probably it's gonna be touchscreen fault or touchscreen connector fault.
