I have a D800 model. The touchscreen will not respond when trying to access the status bar, but when I bring the notification panel down via another shortcut I can tap the settings icon among other items which are in the same areas which wouldn't respond before. So I know the digitizer isn't "dead" there. There are also multiple areas in the top third of the display which do not respond only in portrait mode (I can't click "install" in the play store, for instance). When rotated to landscape, those areas of the screen respond normally.
I've tried calibrating the motion sensor, updating touchscreen fw, factory resetting and kdz/tot back to bone stock and none have fixed the issue. I can't find a similar issue on any other forums or websites.
It was working fine and began happening all of a sudden and no modifications were made prior. I was running CloudyG3 1.1 since its release.
Any ideas?
Thank you!

Anyone else experiencing issues with the "keep screen turned off" feature after upgrading to nougat? I noticed that after upgrading, this feature stopped working. It was working fine prior to updating to nougat. I'm on Rogers S7 edge.
I've tried factory resetting my phone but the feature is still not working. I've tested the sensor with the test menu and the sensor seems to be working, so it seems like it's a software issue? Any one else experiencing this or know how to fix it?
Thanks
Yes. I too am getting this issue with mine. Brand new... perhaps a couple of weeks old.

I have the same issue. It fixes itself after a restart but after a while the "keep screen turned off" fails again.

Yes, me too. Anyone found a solution to this?
Same problem here. Isn’t there an app or something that will fix this, even if it requires root?
Is this where while on a call, you press the power button and the screen turns back on? If so, I'm getting that too.
Same issue after Nougat on Galaxy S6 Edge. My better half's S7, too. Any news on this?
I also have that issue.
It's a big problem for me because I basically can't use my phone in my car any more.
On outgoing or incoming calls the damn screen turns on and keeps on
and after a short while I accidently press one of the on-screen buttons and my call is aborted or muted.
(I own a Samsung Galaxy S6)
I too have this issue. I am using the lockscreen until Samsung fixes this.
I don't expect there's much that can be done if the hardware is to blame. This reminds me of my Galaxy S3 -- so it's a problem that everyone else fixed ages ago. When I touch the touchscreen, very very often, it doesn't register that touch at all. Sometimes you get a delayed response. This leads to all kinds of fun where you tap the screen again at the same moment that PH-1 responds to your first touch, so it applies your second tap to whatever is going to come up on the screen a half second later.
Does anyone know if this can be fixed by firmware updates or is this a hardware issue?
same here! my huawei honor 8 is much faster
Touch Screen unresponsive is a hardware issue. I had the same problem with my HTC U11 until it was replaced. Essential phone does not have this issue assuming screen is working properly.

Touchscreen responsiveness, having to tap more than once for the screen to register a touch and awful light bleed caused me to send it back. But it was from the first batch that were manufactured. No issues on my U11, but I bought it in early August.
Confirming u installed the most recent OTA (NMI64C)? Because that fixed my touch issues.

Yep that's what I currently have. I think the phone found that update on its own a few days ago. Touch issues seem to be hit or miss and maybe less frequent since that update. We'll see how it goes from here.
touch unresposive is due too thermal trottling or like me the launcher stock.
Solved with Evie launcher
Using a different launcher and such didn't help me out, unfortunately. Besides the tap issues, scrolling through a web page in any browser or with apps was extremely slow and laggy. My PH-1 was already being returned, so I couldn't test the latest software update they pushed out. But my device also had some horrible light bleed all along the left and right edges.
No light bleed here. But [email protected], the responsiveness of this touch screen is worse than any other phone I've had. And the new software update hasn't helped at all!...
Same issue!
I too am having touch screen issues. Today, I was on the phone and went to go back to the screen and the screen stays black. I tried everything including pressing the power button and I got no response from the phone whatsoever. The only thing that finally worked was to press the power button and the volume down button and hold them at the same time to shut my phone off after the call already ended. In addition to that issue , I also use Swipe to type and when I do so it often skips over letters and types words that I am not even trying to type . It should be mentioned that I'm a very experienced swipe user and I have not had this problem with my S7 Edge or my Wellington . Also, I should mention that I have the most recent OTA. Also, has anyone else noticed that the camera shutter has a serious delay in it even with the Google camera mod?
I've noticed my touch screen freaking out sometimes. It has more to do with the screen having too many prints on it. Guess it's a bit too sensitive. I wipe the phone screen off and it's fine. Doesn't happen very often. I have one of the latest batches, pure white.
Already looked into this?
Sensitivity:
1. Tap on the "Settings" icon on the home screen.
2. Tap "Language and Input".
3. Scroll to the very bottom of these settings and tap "Pointer Speed".
4. Increase the slider to make the touch screen more sensitive and easier to tap. Decrease the slider to make your touch screen less sensitive and more difficult to tap.
5. Tap "OK" and then experiment with the results.
Essential Support still working on that and they send me this instructions for now.
I think it makes the user experience better.

Same.
Hope it will have a fix soon.
Early on I got the black screen that required a power hold reboot, since moving to Oreo I've not seen that

This I have experienced too
edit : solved with oreo beta
basongwe said:
When I touch some letters on my keyboard, it's unresponsive. Same with some apps. I don't know why this phone is so frustrating to use even if it's a very good smartphone.
EDIT : I'm on Nougat's lastest version, not on Oreo beta.

Had it on both versions to be honest, but hoping it's getting resolved as time goes on!
Just got mine..same thing but...
My screen was doing fine until i installed "All in one gestures". I was messing around with side gestures and this caused the screen to be non-responsive. I un-installed the app, reinstalled it and set it up differently and now it is fine.
I hope this helps.

This helped me. I have mine set at approximately 3/4 and I'm happy one day in. Seems to work great now. I would still like smoother scrolling though. Thanks a million.
I was also having trouble with Android Pay and then found a post about the NFC being located near the bottom of the phone as opposed to the top as on my Nexus 6p.
With these problems fixed I'm completely pleased with this phone.
ugh! Flashed back to stock on 7.1.1/NMJ32F/436 as that is how my phone came, and now I have no touchscreen after re-boot?!?!?! any advice? Please?
Thanks,

Hi ALL
I noticed that after OREO update when I want to hung up a call I see Notification Bar active (pulled down), so I need to pull it back up to press hung up button. This is really annoying because it happens during 70% of calls.
It looks like proximity sensor does not work correctly and I accidentally touch notification bar with my ear during a call.
I did a Factory Reset, it did not help. I did a downgrade to Android 7.0 and it helped and cured the issue!
Maybe this software glitch is related to GSMarena mentioned proximity sensor issue in their LG V30S review
Have anybody noticed that glitch with G6 and Oreo?
Thank you.
Nick
G6, H870, EU version.
I don't have this or any issues with my handheld.
After the update i noticed a problem with priority sensor too.
Sometime it keep turning off my screen when I working with my phone and it will fix when i restart the phone .... , Also I did a factory reset but problem didn't fixed
Same problem for past 2months.?
Infact i noticed sensor was On during the night also when AOD was off!
I started having problems when fast typing on my keyboard and it registers two different tap as a swipe. When I test it using developer setting (show touch tap) and a multi touch test app, it only registers two taps. Does anyone have the same issue? Loving the S10+ and dex but this problem has made me crazy. If anyone has a fix, it would totally made my day, thanks in advance.
