Droid Eris touch screen not working

I have the droid eris. I got it off a friend and its been working just fine and all of a sudden the touch screen stopped working. i tried taking the battery out and putting it back in and it still doesnt work. i cant slide and unlock nor are any other touch buttons working. any solutions?

Hello cfarrell856,
Without a touchscreen, you don't have a phone! We need to get your phone fixed quickly! There is an alternate master reset that you can perform without a working touchscreen. I will include a link with the steps. If the reset does not fix the issue, then it's hardware related and you will need to activate another device. Let's hope the reset fixes it!
Click here and follow the "Alternate" method: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=27431

  • Droid Eris Touch screen not calibrating

    I've had my Eris since December '09.  A few days ago I noticed a significant decrease in the touch screen sensitivity.  Yesterday, I noticed that part of the screen is almost completely unresponsive, unless I held it down for a long time or tapped the screen hard.
    Today, when I press the symbol to home, instead, it will select whatever is in the upper left corner, and the same for the lower right corner, selecting the upper right corner instead.
    I've tried to recalibrate it, but all I can do is recalibrate the keyboard.  Is there a way, without doing a hard reset, to fix this?

    That's most likely a hardware issue--either a component in the screen has failed or is in the process of failing. Your best bet is to bring it into a Verizon store for support--make sure to back up your data ahead of time, as they're required to try a factory reset before giving you a refurb unit. No sense in doing the reset yourself for a hardware issue when they're going to have to do it anyway.
    And if you do need a refurb, make sure to ask them to swap your current SD card into the refurb unit, so you don't lose pictures, etc.

  • LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly

    Hello, I'm having an issue with a LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly. I have followed the instructions to reset the printer, but now am unable to select 'English' as my language because every time I select the 'English' option 'Spanish' is selected. I am then given two options to select 'Si' or 'No' both of which can not be selected on the touch screen?
    Anybody know of a way round this?

    Hi @dnhowes ,
    I see that you are having issues with the touch screen not working correctly. I will do my best to help you.
    Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    Was it the Nvram reset back to factory settings that you tried or a hard reset?
    Try selecting the option on the display a little higher above the icon to see if that helps. Some touch screens are finicky.
    I find that on the Lab printers when I am selecting different menus.
    If the issue continues, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836 for further assistance. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • Lenovo A1 - Touch screen not working after digitizer replacemen​t

    After dropping my tablet and breaking the digitzer, I ordered a replacement digitzer from a company in China. (It took about a month to get it) After watching this video, I was able to install my new digitizer and it finally looked new again....well at least the screen!
    But.....when I powered up my tablet, the touch screen wasn't working..... I emailed back and forth with the company and they told me to install drive program, and send me a link to a site with a video, this site may have contained more than the video, but it was all in Chinese and I couldn't figure it out even with Google Translate. So I started researching. I thought I would try and load ICS on it, I thought, "Whats the worst thing that could happen?" it wasn't much more than a brick at this point anyways. 
    I found this website that let me through installing ICS on it. I had absolutly no expectations...but IT WORKED!!!! MY TOUCH SCREEN IS NOW WORKING!!!! I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
    When I was researching for this problem, there was absolutly no posts anywhere for "Touch screen not working after new digitizer". So I wanted to share my experience.

    Yea you are correct.....it must be a hardware problem. You must contact service centre of Lenovo and get help from there.
    You can say thank you by pressing the star left to my post IF I HELPED YOU

  • 8500 All in One - touch screen not working

    One minute the touch screen with all it's functions was working fine and then, bam (!), the touch screen stopped working and I can't even use the one/off switch to power the unit off - it does not respond.  Funny thing is that the printer is still working from my computer so I can still send a print job via the wireless.   With the touch screen not working I can't use any function from the unit itself (copy a hard copy, fax a hard copy) and if the unit runs out of paper I have to unplug it to reboot since I can't hit the 'enter' on the touch screen once I've reloaded. 
    Bottom line --- nothing from the unit itself works.  Has a printer fairy locked me out or does this sound like a hardware error?  Thanks for any help ...
    Linda T

    Excellent.  Let me know how round 2 treats you.  The sad demise could have been due to a couple of things...as a side question, is the climate where you live especially dry right now?  I may request that our testers recheck how well we handle a static shock on the product if it is dry where you live.

  • Sony Vaio Pro 13.3 Touch: Touch screen not working

    Hi, The touch screen for my Sony Vaio Pro 13 Touch suddenly stopped working two days ago and I have no idea how to fix it. I didn't install anything new before it stopped working, and I tried to install all the new drivers on the VAIO update but it still didn't work. I thought it might be because of Windows so I updated to Windows 8.1 today and it still does not work. On the PC info it even says" Pen abd touch: No pen or touch input is available for this display". but this laptop is supposed to have touch capability and it has been working up until now. Please help! My model number is SVP13215CDB. Do I need to install or update my driver?

    Hi FlyingTortoise,
    Was there any changes prior to touch screen not working?  Like installing software or hardware?  If not, then try using windows system restore to restore back to a date that you know when it was working.  If that still does not resolve issue.  Then we may have to put the unit back to factory condition to eliminate software related before servicing the unit for hardware.

Can't download anything support etc from Sony as it asks to enter the password to open the phone which she can't do as the touch screen not working.Is there another way or does it need to go back to the comapny for repair. It is contarct with VirginThanks in advance

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    I'm sorry to hear. If the touch does not work, it's not much that you can do on your own more than performing a software repair to exclude software related problems. This can be done via our program Update service:
    http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
    Download and install SUS, follow the instructions that appear.
    Note that the personal data will be lost when performing this repair and if you cannot access the menu, you are unable to back up this data.
    If the problem persist, I suggest that you contact your local support team to get information about how you should proceed in this case:

  • New Droid 3 touch screen not reposnding

    I just got my new Droid 3 today (I had previously wanted an iphone but a relative got a droid 3 and it was buy one get one free so how could I turn down a free new phone? ....anyway, I was just messing with it tonight and now it's completely frozen.  Nothing happens when I touch the screen.  It started acting funny, not letting me text and the next thing I knew, it completely froze.  Does anyone know a good way to reset the device or any other way I can fix this myself?
    Thanks!

    Good afternoon!
    I'm sure I can help determine the root cause of this concern. Clearly, the screen is an important part of this phone. What I recommend doing to narrow down the potential issues, is booting the phone in safe mode. If the issue stops, then it is likely related to an application. In that case, I suggest finding the faulty application or performing a hard reset. This will not only removing harmful applications, but also removes other potential software issues.
    Please advise of your results.

  • HELP: iPhone 6 Keyboard/Touch Screen Not Working

    Hello.
    I recently acquired to an iPhone 6, which has been working properly for the last two weeks. Today, my keyboard/touch screen stopped working properly. When I am typing in iMessage, or trying to compose an email, enter a URL, or anything else that requires my touch keyboard, my "123" button that switches to numbers, punctuation, and special characters does not open. I updated my software to iOS 8.3., which switched to a new and "improved" emoji keyboard, but I did this after my keyboard had already become unresponsive. If I click on the emjoi keyboard icon to switch over, the "ABC" button to swtich back to QWERTY is unresponsive. This is REALLY frustrating! The phone is two weeks old, and I cannot use to for a huge chunk of functionality.
    It's not a dead spot on the touch screen. When I am not trying to access the keyboard, that little bottom left corner works fine to open/use my Phone app.
    I really don't want to reset my phone. Any other ideas?
    I made a Genius Bar appointment for next Wednesday 4/15, but that seems like an eternity from now.
    Please help!

    To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the Touch Screen . If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

    Hello theow,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand the touch screen on your notebook is not detected after updating to Windows 8.1. 
    This would be the best place to start: Troubleshooting Touch Screen Issues in Windows 8. This is a great document that covers touchscreen issues from start to finish. Do not be alarmed that it states the document pertains to TouchSmart PC's, as the steps are the same.
    It would also help to know which product you are using so I can give you more detailed information, such as driver downloads.
    For information on finding your product and model numbers click here: How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?

    Hello Jerome19961996:
              Sorry about your wipe out. Are you ready to try it again? This time we will do it the right way. We first have to get you back to orginal factory ok. Lets first see if can use the recovery manger. Type in your all program search box Recover Manager.Open it and click factory restore. If it is still there. If not then you will need to use your recovery disk. If you did not make a copy then you will need to purchase them from HP's parts store. Direction on how to order them are on your computers update page.  Ounce you have your computer restored to factory condition. We can now upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate.
           This time we are going to use just the product key number. Goto all programs search box again and type in Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor. Open it and inter the product key that you purchased already. This time do not remove programs or delete any thing. Let it upgrade on it's own. This time everthing that is on your computer already will not be touched. The upgrade will only install what upgrades are needed with out disturbing HP's software. Ounce the initial upgrade is completed then go on line and download Windows 7 Ultimate add on's.
