Q10 - there is a voice and my touch screen no longer works

My touch screen on my phone has stopped being responsive, however, I have noticed that there is now a voice which states whatever I press, though the phone will not take me into that application, i.e. if I tap contacts, it says contacts and yet I remain on the home screen. My question is therefore,
1) How do I turn this function off and
2) is it this function that has messed up my phone or does it just no longer work?
Thanks for any assistance which will save me having to send the phone back to blackberry for a few weeks

Depends on the damage. The battery came loose in my iPhone. When Apple opened the phone to redo the glue they discovered the speakers were also loose. Apple replaced the phone.
If the glue was properly bonded or had some other flaw Apple will replace the device if the device is still under warranty.

Do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the device to boot back up.
No data is loss doing a reset.

I have an iPod touch 2nd generation and my touch screen doesn't work, at all. What should I do?

I have an iPod touch 2nd generation and my touch screen doesn't work, at all. What should I do?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. I say not worth it for a 2G
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more. Again, likely not worth it for a 2G

Replace the screen yourself if you are up to it

Dropped my phone and now I see almost-transparent lines on my lock screen and the touch screen doesn't work. Help?

I was walking to my garage when my iPhone slipped out of my hand and fell on the floor. I looked at it and saw strange almost-transparent lines on my lock screen. I tried to unlock my phone, but it wouldn’t let me do anything. It was almost as the touch screen wasn’t working. I turned it off and plugged in my phone to the charger and it started up automatically, but it still looked the same and wouldn’t work. I think that my iPhone 5 might be broken? Please help!

Touch screen no longer working on Satellite S55t-B5233

I've nearly had this laptop for a year and my touch screen stopped working about a month ago. I don't know what happened but I'm assuming one of the updates removed the touch screen driver. I cannot find any settings on my computer for a touch screen and I have no idea what to do to get it to work again. I really do not want to restore my laptop because it's too much of a hassle to reinstall everything. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I could go about fixing this?

I have an HP Touchsmart 610 1130y pc and the touch screen is not working - how can I fix it?

Does anyone know how to get the touch screen on an HP Touchsmart 610 1130y pc working again? I get an error message "CLL error: 80004005.

Ingo, the reset has worked, pressing home and sleep buttons together! The problem is that the screen turned black and the iPod does not start again.
Yesterday, I wrapped the iPod with a plastic. Today, the slide to unlock is moving, but still not reaching the end of the slide bar.
What should I do now? Try to charge it and reset it on iTunes?
(thanks, you're really helping me)

I drop my phone in a half bowl of water and the touch screen isn't working, and suri keeps coming on. is my phone broken now?

I dropped my phone in a half bowl of water. The swipe screen isn't working and Suri keeps coming on. Is my phone broken or will it work after it sits in a bowl of rice?

It is probably broken, but wait and see, it takes several days to dry out. If it does start working that may only be temporary as the iPhone corrodes.

Touch screen no longer working (Windows 8.1 Lenovo ThinkPad)

Suddenly the touch screen stopped functioning. The screen doesn't "feel" my fingers at all.... I am not an experienced user, and I do not want to "try" various solutions in order to check whether it works or not. I might mess up my whole
laptop. What is your suggestion?
I've looked at Lenovo web and TechNet, but couldn't find anything related there either.

Check this FAQ from Lenovo
http://download.lenovo.com/lenovo/content/windows8-1/upgrade/ideapad/index_en.html
I suspected you just currently updated your Windows Operating system to Windows 8.1
Some of model listed there not ready yet to upgrade to Windows 8.1 or you haven't update your touchpad driver yet. Some of driver like touchpad need to be update in Windows 8.1
I also suggest you update all the driver if any. Contacting Lenovo is the best way since you don't want to try TS here.
Basic TS for touchpad is only reinstall driver or update, rather than that you should contact Lenovo (HW or 3rd party software issue)
good luck

Touch Screen No Longer Works After Windows 8 Install on X220 Tablet

I was previously running Windows 8 Preview and did not have any problems with the touch screen. I have tried two separate clean installs of Windows 8 Pro, and the only thing that will not work is the touch screen with my finger. The pen still works, but not the finger touch.
The driver installation for both the pen and the multitouch fails with and error saying "A supported tablet was not found on the system."
Help Please.

Any resolution on this issue. Please advise as I am having the same problem when upgrading from Windows 7 to 8 on my X230T (3434cto)

Touch screen no longer works after waking up from sleep

3 out of 4 times when my computer goes to sleep my touch screen will no longer work when it wakes up. I have to restart the computer to get it to recognize the pen. Is there an easier way of refreshing the system so that it will recognize the pen? Is this an operating system issue, I have vista currently.

Any resolution on this issue. Please advise as I am having the same problem when upgrading from Windows 7 to 8 on my X230T (3434cto)

My iPhone touch screen no longer works

I have a 4s iPhone with the latest iOS 7 update. The touch screen is completely non responsive. I tried to reset the screen but I can't because I need to be able to swipe across to reset the phone and it won't let me.
What should I do? My phone data hasn't yet been restored since I tried to restore to factory settings. I can't get calls or even open the phone.
(No water damage or screen damage recently that could be correlated with it. Onset of problems was gradual, before today the screen was touchy but now completely unresponsive)

I solved my own problem by clicking the home button 3 times.

HP Envy touch screen no longer working

Not certain when but my touch screen is no longer working on my HP Envy? Think it might have occurred during the Windows 8.1 upgrade.
Please provide a simple way to restore. Pen and touch is no longer installed?

Hello again dmcarswell,
Thank you for responding to my post requesting additional information. I am going to recommend that you review and follow the steps set out in the HP Support document: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8), which in the section "Software and drivers installed" has the instructions you need to follow. As long as the drivers are available and you have an internet connection the HP Support Assistant should automatically find, download and install the drivers for you.
Now if you are still experiencing the same issue after doing this you may have to go into the Device Manager and manually uninstall the Graphics driver (ensuring it is deleted). Once you have done this manually download and install the driver from the HP ENVY TouchSmart 15-j063cl Notebook PC Drivers page.
Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.
