For sum reason my wing just stop working. the other day it just faded to white and never turn back on. once i got it to turn on it only went to the multi colored screen so i connected to my computer and loaded the tmobile RUU it went to 100% rebooted and ever came back on. a blue screen then came on and said press yes to continue, i did n here i am posting my problem because it only goes to that screen. Any input from anyone would be great.
You could try a hard reset. You will loose everything but at least your phone might be working.
1. Hold the two soft keys down (the one that opened contacts and calendar by default)
2. With your stylus push the soft reset (below the volume control) hold for about 5 seconds.
3. Keep holding the soft keys and you should get an message to push the send button.
4. press send.
Your phone should reset (hopefully) at this point.
I just got the Nexus S today. I've played around with it and love it so far, but I have one problem: when I press my Home button in an app, it doesn't throw me back to the home screen. It vibrates when I touch it (so it responds), but other than that it doesn't do anything. Also, my screen wouldn't lock or show the unlock slider (after waking up). It would just turn on to a home screen, even after setting a PIN lock.
Ok, so before I posted this message I decided to restart the phone. Home button now works, screen locks beautifully. Glad I don't have to go get a new one! Posting this still in case others have the same problem.
TLDR: Home button didn't work, screen didn't lock even with Pin. Solution: restart your phone.
In the last couple of weeks, when the pattern lock screen is displayed, it intermittently doesn't accept touch input. If I power off and on the screen quickly, it then accepts touch input fine.
Similarly, if I press and hold the power button (with the phone on), it brings up a "Phone Options" screen, with options for Silent, Airplane, Profile, Reboot and Power Off. Touch input does not work at all on this screen. I'm working around this by using the Quick Boot app.
Otherwise, touch input works fine, so I don't think it's a hardware problem.
I've seen something similar when Google Nav gets in front of the lock screen. Touch doesn't work until I power off and on the screen, and enter the lock pattern. Could something invisible be getting in front of the lock and power screens?

Hey there,
Maybe the ROM h doesnt function properly on your device. Try shifting to another rom. All are equally amazing. If you do not want to shift, try running task29 and start the process all over again

Have you read the thread about the unresponsive touchscreen, where pressing hard on the end call button fixes the screen touch? I assume your problem is in essence the same; once you press it hard enough to actually unlock the screen the touch works fine.

That probably is what the problem is. Btw to everyone, I haven't noticed a difference in pressing it really hard, I noticed that pressing it a lot of times does the trick

Thanks for the feedback. I don't think it's the ROM, been using GBX-v12 since it was released, and previous versions before that.
The symptoms do seem similar to the other thread, but others report it on many screens. I only get it on the lock and reset/power screen. Otherwise, it works fine. However, those screen are brought up after pressing the power key ...
I suppose if it is hardware, then it's likely that cable issue. If it's software, then a reset should clear it, so I might try an ICS ROM from scratch first.

I guess i shoulda commented that how my digitizer began acting, it only did it while in the power menu but after a couple days it started doing it while just hitting the power button to put it to sleep, so i remapped my green phone key to be the power button

Thanks for the tip. You're right about the symptoms getting worse, it now occasionally stops working on other screen
I'm using any button but power to turn on the phone. To turn it off I've added "Go to sleep" to the notification widget bar, which I assume is the same as pressing power??
Not quite as user friendly and sometimes I forget not to use power off, but it'll do for now!

Yes that will work! I used it cause I got lazy and didn't feel like changing the key file but it's much easier to use the green call key instead of the notification power widget

Try this:
Lock the screen normally, screen turns off.
To turn it on again by pressing any other screen buttons other than the power button.
I found that if I do it this way, the screen runs normal.
Guys I have a question... when I talk on the phone (with speakers on so I leave it on the table), the screen goes black... the problem is that every time I want to turn the screen back on I actually have to use the power button... the home button doesnt work, it's blacked (even if i have set always on display to be active all the time).
Is there a way to turn the screen back on without pressing the power button? Or have the home button active even if the screen goes black during a phone call? thank you!
Anyone?
Home button should be active at all times, you may need to press hard, blindly in the right place but it should work at least it works on mine, no problem.
You sure? Your home button works even when you talk with speakers on and the screen turns black?

Of course it works. Maybe it has some time out function, when it disables home button after certain time, I don't know since I never talk more than few min, but when screen goes blank, couple min later I press home button and it goes straight to talk screen bypassing lock. But I have location/BT set as secure, so it never locks up when I'm home, at work or in a car and have not test it much outside of those places. So if I had to make wild guess it's one of 3: 1. it has some time out 2. something with security lock 3. you're not pressing hard enough or wrong place, you really have to press hard, like you want bend screen a little.
My S6 did this also.
Some help?....
@tharghan
Same problem...
If anyone has a solution for this problem of black screen on speaker calls!?
Hi, I have recently purchased a Mi 9T and everything works fine with the phone, but I have this bug, that I didn't see in any post from this forum.
Every time the screens goes black (sleep), it doesn't recognize any input anymore. The phone still works and I can receive calls, notifications and so. I can turn on the camera, make screen captures, and everything, but only because I can do this with the volume and power buttons.
I tried Flashing the device, but when I get to the recovery screen of TWRP for the first time (where you need to make a swipe) the screens goes black for a second and doesn't let me do the swipe.
Any ideas of what the problem can be? (and the solution if it's possible).
If not just press the power button again ...same things happens to me, once i rebot into recovery it goes black and nothing happens, then i need to press the power button to "unlock" the screen again.
had similar experience: sometime after I lock the device (by hitting power button) and screen goes off, it input my finger on the fingerprint sensors it does not recognize and unlock (not even fingerprint animation actually). Other than this I can still hit the power button so that the screen lights up and then unlock with fingerprint.
But, this is just sometimes, not always.
