Galaxy S6 :: Screen Becomes Unresponsive And Freezes?
Jul 28, 2015
When I'm using my phone it suddenly freezes and it has to be restarted for it to be used again. This happens every 5-10 mins. It has irritating to have to restart it every 5-10 mins and it going off in between important work. Is there any permanent fix?

From time to time screen WON'T TURN THE KEYBOARD JUST FLASHES AND NOTHING HAPPENS (I am trying over 5 minutes to type here in landscape mode and finally I gave up as the keyboard never shows up) Screen sometimes freezes or gets cropped or sometimes like in the picture (screenshot), tried factory reset and still no use...

all of a sudden, after my dinner this evening, my S6 edge was completely unresponsive.
pressing the power button for 7+ seconds, as per Samsung, did not work at all. totally black screen, no response. pressing the volume DOWN button, power button, and the home button, also to no avail. on the other hand, while on the phone to TMobile's customer service to report this non-functional brand new phone,
i was continuing to press the abovementioned buttons frantically. well, while i was talking to TMobile via my landline, the phone eventually booted up. this was VERY haphazard. The only thing i recall reading about this was to press the power button for 7 seconds, which Samsung had said was the equivalent of pulling out the battery.
right. that's bogus. that did nothing for me. yet, by pressing the volume up or down button PLUS the power button PLUS the home button,
i don't know exactly which combination eventually worked, as i was trying various permutations, eventually, the phone booted up. this does not give me confidence in this phone.
What eventually i did to make this phone boot up eventually. all i did was to be on the phone with TMobile and press the power button plus the volume up or down button, plus the home button, and eventually, it rebooted and came back to life.

A couple of times now I've had this problem where I go to use my phone or read a new text that has come through and when I go to enter my 4 digit pin the screen is not responding & I have this blue horizontal line that moves down from the top of the screen continuously like its doing some sort of scan over the phone. I have no way to stop this or to have the ability to enter my 4 digit pin for accessing my phone.
Eventually I give up trying to enter my pin & put my phone down for hours. When I come back to try again twice now I've been able to use my phone like normal and the issue seems to have gone away but other times this still remains for a longer time then randomly starts to work as normal. I've forced my phone to turn off & or reboot but this still isn't fixing the problem. I haven't been able to access my phone for over 10 hours and I have miss calls & messages that people have sent me but unable to get past my 4 digit pin to read them.

For the second time, my galaxy s6 screen seem to be frozen. When it happens, I see a blue bar moving up and down on the screen. I can reset the phone by holding power and volume down button but it doesn't fix it, the phone is still frozen after the reboot.
I can't power down the phone completely since the screen doesn't allow me to hit the Power Off option! All button seem to be working fine.

I have this weird thing going on with my Atrix. I've had it for about six months and it was fine until now. What happens is that the touchscreen stops responding after it is turned off (pressing the power button) and back on. I can't unlock the phone, but the volume buttons are still responsive and I can still turn off the screen. If i reboot it (by removing the battery), it boots up just fine, with the screen working perfectly. It'll sometimes stop working when ending a call. The weird thing is that it doesn't happen everytime I turn off the screen, and when it happens, if I turn it off and back on it sometimes starts working again. It also seems to happen more frequently when the battery is low.

For the last couple of weeks my screen has been starting to act kind of weird. The problem is that the screen become unresponsive from time to time. For the most of the time when the screen stop responding I can "reset" it by pressing the sleep-button and then wake the phone up again or tilt it to landscape-mode. It's very enoying and I don´t know what to do. For example, just a regular text/sms takes like 8-9 "resets" as described above, to finish.
I use the latest software for both iOS and iTunes. The phone has not been a subject to "brute force" or any kind of liquids and part from a few very small scratches the phone looks like new (kind of).

iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1

I've been having some trouble lately; with my iPhone 5s running iOS 7.1.2, 64 gigabytes of storage. It was running completely fine until a couple of days ago, when the screen began to not react to my touch. I initially thought it was a hardware problem, but the phone has not taken any damage as far as I can tell and the screen resumes working when I restart it. The screen works, for the most part, on the right side; but from the left edge to about a centimeter in it is completely unresponsive.
Occasionally, the phone will begin to act as if I am tapping it on the left side, although I am not touching it. Turning the phone on and off again provided a temporary fix, as did hard resetting it and factory restoring it, but after a few minutes of being on it becomes unresponsive again. I cannot unlock it without using the fingerprint reader due to the unresponsiveness, but once I do unlock it there is not much I can do without the left side.
I tried removing the screen protector but nothing happened, so that is eliminated. I did, however, get a new SIM card and service carrier recently, but that seems unconnected. The climate I now live in is much more humid, so that could be a problem, but a new, state-of-the-art phone like the 5s shouldn't be having problems with that, right?

My dialer looks like that. I have the latest kitkat 4.4.4. I do not have access to my dialer at all during calls. I've factory reset twice and hard reset once already. Safe mode does not support much, it did for a very brief period. Then, became useless. It's Galaxy s5 G900V Factory Unlocked, paid full price.
Side Node: During my calls (using T-Mobile Sim) my signal drops from 4G LTE to no bars during my calls, I've done resets and if I'm lucky on my first call during reset it'd let me user the dialer pad. Afterwards, no luck forever more!

Anyone else running into issues where the internet becomes unresponsive? I've experienced this over wifi and 3g in the browser. I end up having to exit all applications and clearing the memory and then it works again.

Since I have installed the last update my screen very often doesn't react.For instance if I have an incoming call I cannot pick it up by "sliding" the screen does not react.I use this phone for business and it is just not acceptable that I am missing a lot of customer calls because of this problem.

I updated my phone to the new version. I noticed afterwards that the screen started becoming less responsive. When I was on a call, the screen would go black, and unresponsive. I couldn't hang up the calls. The phone also started freezing randomly. As I was sitting on my phone checking facebook, the screen cracked. Diagonally on the front. Not all the way through. Not the top of the screen - I can't touch or feel the crack.Â
Â
-The phone was not hot.Â
-The phone was not dropped.
-The phone has been in a tech21 Impactology case since day 1 - with a screen protector as well. I don't take the case off.Â
Â
I had planned on sending my phone for exchange  - because there is a bubble/defect in the front facing camera lens. The camera does not take clear pictures due to this. The phone is less than a year old, and I had not managed to get into the bell store yet.

I've got an issue with a HTC Sensation. The touchscreen will not unlock whatsoever. The phone turns on fine, new notifications pop up on the top bar and the screen on/off button at the top works fine, but the silver ring at the bottom will not pull up to unlock.
This happened afew weeks ago, I took out the battery, left it out for a few hours, put it back in, did a factory reset and it worked. I've since installed a few more apps and accordingly, the screen does not work at all, I've tried pulling the battery but to no avail, nothing will work, I'm still getting messages through and phone calls but can't unlock the screen to answer!
Does anyone know of any way to bypass the lock screen at start-up so I can just do a factory reset again??? I have tried starting up in safe mode, but this doesn't work.

I've HTC Sensation Z710e, screen becomes unresponsive very often. Whenever i switch on by pressing the button at top, sometimes it become unresponsive. Sometimes by pressing 5-15 times it becomes responsive. But, some time i have to remove the battery and start again to put it into active mode. I really don't know about this problem. I also did factory reset but in vain.

I'm having trouble with my new iPhone 5s, I'm using the latest software iOS 7.1.2.
I just got the phone today and set it up no more than 2 hours ago And what im experiencing is when I scroll down the screen will jump back to the top of the page I'm on. When I do scroll successfully my finger remains on the screen but the screen keeps rolling down quite quickly. Pressing buttons sometimes won't register and when it does it registers on a letter or number near the one I chose, I understand it could be because I use my thumbs so I've tried index fingers and get the same effect.
Also dragging apps won't work as when I try to do it, it's like I'm removing my finger from the screen and the app jumps back to the original place.
I've done a hard reset soft reset wiped the phone started from scratch cleaned the screen even washed my hands, and still no solution.

I started noticing this problem on my phone (iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1.1) where my screen would kind of go haywire without me touching it. For example, if I'm browsing through Vine, it would automatically scroll all the way up as if I had pressed the info bar on top (the one that lets you scroll all the way up with one touch) and then would keep trying to pull down to refresh all by itself. The problem would temporarily go away when I locked the screen, but it would come back once in a while. At this point, I tried turning it on/off, doing a reset by holding the home and power buttons, and restoring it from a backup.Â
Now, the problem has escalated to where the entire screen is unresponsive to touch at first unlocking. It was a minor nuisance, until the entire screen would stop responding while the phone was unlocked and I had been using it. I tried turning it on/off and the reset with the home/power buttons, but the problem would still come up. At this point, I ended up doing a complete restoration of my phone and deleted everything I had on there. The problem seemed to go away last night, but this morning, after I unplugged it from its charger, the problem was back.Â
My current issue now is that the touch screen is unresponsive when I first try to unlock it, but I lock and re-unlock it and the screen works fine. But I have to do this EVERY SINGLE TIME I want to use my phone.

My screen stopped responding earlier today, except for AssistiveTouch, which is not enoough. Also, my lock button stopped working some time ago, so I have no way to power off my phone to my knowledge. I've created a back up of my iPhone on iTunes, but can't restore it or factory reset it because I can't get into my phone to disable Find My iPhone. I also am not connected to wifi, and have no data plan, so Siri is unavailable. I attempted using iCloud earlier to erase my iPhone, which it tried to do, but could not as I'm not on wifi. However, I was given the option to remove my iPhone from the iCloud, which I read earlier would disable Find My iPhone, but iTunes still says it is enabled and I must disable it before reseting or restoring.

Twice in the past week I got my phone out and it was off and unresponsive. I had to do soft boot with power volume down to get the phone working. This is something that I have not experienced with other android phones. I am on Verizon with stock Galaxy S6 running 5.0.2.
Is this a defective phone or some application causing problems. What steps can I take to troubleshoot the problem?
Having my phone randomly stop working is unacceptable as this is my primary line. I can't afford to miss calls. I need to get this fixed.

I recently factory reset my S5 and restored it. Ever since the phone can become unresponsive. It randomly goes to a black screen the multi window light and back up light both come on as if it is still powered up. Sometimes it comes back on but mostly I have to pull the battery. This happens quite a few times a day so annoying.

The touchscreen on my E7 becomes unresponsive while charging. Essentially it seems to be losing it's accuracy. It stilll works somewhat but you have to tap all over the screen to get a response, and then it's not the one you want.
