My touch screen has suddenly stopped working, kind of works if you press really hard, am I missing something. (HTC Tattoo)

kindly get it to the Samsung service center, touch screen problems can only be solved by the service agent

my htc cell phone touch screen does not work all a sudden

Hi,
when a phones touch screen malfunctions, it means that the touch pad is damaged seriously and it needs to be replaced.

Mostly it is caused by dropping the phone on the flow, hitting it on something or even pressing the touch screen pad with the wrong instrument.(any sharp object).

You can take it to a here by store for a replacement of the touch pad.

NOTE: phone is very delicate needs to be handled by an experienced personnel.

Take care.

I took mine to the Orange Shop. Now I'm going to sell it.

Hi, I have the HTC touch from bell. I too had the same problem with my screen. It stopped working completely. The phone is pretty much useless without the touch screen working, there is only 3 buttons on the phone! Can't even dial 911... So I was pretty pissed when the screen stopped working. Like others I searched the internet for answers and didn't really find too much. I found that maybe tapping the four corners of the screen firmly might work, but it didn't. Taking the protective cover off the screen might work, didn't work. I tried updating the ROM, using the official software from HTC website. I was able to update my phone, but my touch screen still didn't work. Someone said something about some copper connections inside the phone, need to be re-adjusted behind the screen or something like that. So I willing opened the phone (only 4 hex screws on the back) and took the front plastic cover off. If you look closely, you'll see the front cover is plugged into the 'motherboard' and you can simply unplug it. I unplug it and plug it back in, do a restart of the phone (take battery out and back in) and still nothing, screen doesn't work.
I noticed that on the front cover of the phone (underneath) you can see the copper band of wires that connect to the buttons and probably feeds the information from the touch screen to the 'computer'. I accidentally unplugged the wire (thought I broke it) but was able to insert it back in. I put the the cover back on, put the battery in, power up phone, BINGO! Touch screen works! What I did to make it work? Not sure...
But for people with the same problem. Try this:
1) update ROM

2) Unplug and plug back in that little wire.

Its the red circle I'm talking about.

Just o do a soft reset and it will be all fine again. (red button under the battery case) good luck

its a hard ware issue try putting a piece of paper over ur sim card to press it against the pins on the phone sometimes it gets loosen and does not detect sim cards or try restting the device as follows else go for service centre help but try these solutions first

hard rest factory default settings = when ur set is switched off press both buttons call and end key and then press power button on upside of pda for like 5 sec screen will appear asking to format all data take out ur card if u dont want to format that now confirm by pressing the centre action button in 4 side joystick and go

The touch pad is dead...it's a hardware issue...go to the vendor or workshop...within a year it is replaced for free.Good luck.

Try a hard reboot if possible.

the touch scren not workin i can't see or do nothing on it wat should i do
