HTC Touch Dual Touchscreen nonresponsive when keypad slide out
May 19 2008, 6:46 AM EDT Hi, after 3 months of use, my HTC Touch Dual is suffering from a strange problem whereby when the keypad has been slided out for use, the touchscreen becomes non-responsive. This is an intermittent fault, and if i slide and close it a number of times after that, it tends to work again for a short period of time. The touchscreen works fine when the keypad has not been slid out. I have attempted Hard Reset, soft reset. has anyone else come across this problem? And If so is there a fix? Does it sound like a hardware or software issue? 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: HTC Touch Dual Touchscreen unresponsive when keypad slide out
Jun 3 2008, 3:20 AM EDT i have the same problem... its seems arbitrary when the screen will and wont work... sometimes it is fine others not. Half the time when it doesn't work it because the screen is open and i am typing sms.. but then it occasionally it happens when the screen is down, and then only works again once the screen is reopened....other times it simply does not work at all?!?! I called HTC...they said it is possibly 3rd party software which is causing the fault, but they were not sure (they recommended taking it in for service)... i did a soft and hard reset and i still have the problem?!? hmmmmmm.... ??? 1 out of 1 found this valuable.

RE: HTC Touch Dual Touchscreen unresponsive when keypad slide out
Jun 6 2008, 8:39 AM EDT I previously posted regarding the intermittent fault with the touch screen when the screen was slid open. It has now spread like a cancer, and my HTC Touch dual no longer responds to touchscreen taps either open or close.... 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: HTC Touch Dual Touchscreen unresponsive when keypad slide out
Jun 10 2008, 5:59 AM EDT (i was the second post).... my phone is now completly screwed..... it works fine for couple of hours.. and then next few hours wont work at all... i go overseas for 3 - 4 months in a weeks time.. HTC said they cant fix the phone that quickly and they have not had people call up with the problem before... so they dont know a sollution. I am trying the new ROM update as supplied by HTC /Optus Australia.... hopefully that fixes the problem ROM 1.31.710.13!??! But they dont even know if it is hardware or software?!??! Im supprised there are not more forums with this issue?!? Has anyone else found people with the same problem?? Adrian 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: HTC Touch Dual Touchscreen unresponsive when keypad slide out
Jul 2 2008, 4:00 PM EDT Both my wife and I bought our touch dual 4 months ago and we are having the same problems, can it be coincidence?. I'm sure HTC knows this problem exist but are not addressing it sooner!. I have 4 main problems now and I am making a report to T-mobile: 1. recieving or making calls, on the ear speaker I hear increasing siren noise and it's sour to the ears. I have to put phone down and re-dial. 2. sometime keypads screen non-responsive attempted hard reset and soft reset, sometimes work and other times doesn’t 3. when making calls it shows connected on screen and seconds running however can't hear the person on other line and vice versa. 4. receiving calls, "incoming call" sign shows but the caller display is blank 1 out of 1 found this valuable.

RE: HTC Touch Dual Touchscreen nonresponsive when keypad slide out
Nov 10 2008, 10:48 PM EST I am having the same problem. I purchased my Dual Touch in Hong Kong while there on business so the US repair department for HTC directs me to the Asia Pacific repair department. When I make that long distance call I tell the automated answering machine I want english but the machine does not respond. This is so frustrating. I will probably never buy another HTC phone again. I have only had this for 8 months. Do you find this valuable? |

RE: HTC Touch Dual Touchscreen nonresponsive when keypad slide out
Nov 13 2008, 6:05 AM EST The problem is persistent. The screen does not respond and does not unlock either. Sliding out unlocks the phone..,.. but sms cannot be sent. Start button cannot be used. Settings of the phone cannot be accessed. If there were any 3rd party software that caused this problem, I would love to reset the whole thing to factory settings. But that is not possible either. The touch screen also seems to be physically peeling off from the corners and causing blobs of insensitive areas in the center of the phone. My phone is only 6 months old. :( I need to take it to the vet. Do you find this valuable? |
