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!

How does on fix this?
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.
Thank you!

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!

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.

Lenovo A1 - Touch screen not working after digitizer replacement

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.

Touch Screen not working under Windows10

Got this new notebook yesterday, and all runs fine apart from the touchscreen, will not run when booted up under win10, was on phone with support for2 hours, did all the tests, display is working, but once finally booted it does not work, managed to find the latest drivers on the egalaxtouch website, still does not work, tried the latest from MS from the MS Catalog, I'm guessing I'll have to wait for an update or take it back??? love the pc, nice and fast and 6gb 1tb for 399, but no touch screen, not a deal breaker but would be nice to have it working correctly....and the support site when i select my model it gets stuck in a loop continually asking the model number....

NO AUTO-ROTATE in Windows 10 for HP Envy X2 units!
What is shocking to me is it's obvious HP did not do its due diligence when it comes to Windows 10 and properly testing their goods. Something any good computer company would have DONE for their customers. HP is doing a terrible job at supporting their customers and PCs. It is always smarter to buy from a vendor like Amazon and don't bother with HP customer or tech support. Sadly, they are just a huge waste of time. A word of warning. Do not allow HP foreign tech support get into your machine. It is a very bad idea. You are taking a huge risk that could mess your machine up even worse.
Hope they fix it soon. It is back to Windows 8.1 until then. Peace.

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.

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.

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 ...

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.

Try giving it a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and then see if your touch screen is back.
