[Q] Touchscreen Problems

I've looked everywhere and haven't quite found anything quite like the problem I am having so here it is.

The touchscreen is giving some very weird inputs after installing a new LCD (since mine got cracked). This problem was occurring before and I changed the touchscreen glass but still have the same problem. I changed roms as well and did the basic keyboard calibration with no success. Please help! what else can i do? What could be causing this problem?

PROBLEM:
The very top of the screen does not detect touch at all (therefore I can't drag down the notifications bar). The upper middle of the screen registers only up and down drags when started outside the area. It does not register side to side and does not register touches.

HTC Droid Incredible (tried multiple different roms with no success).

No one? does anyone at least know where I can post this so that i may get answers? like the basic android forums and whatnot?

on top of the lcd there are 2 wire straps, the ground the screen by a screw. when you replaced the screen did you remember to transfer over the the straps as well?

i didn't this time, but i put something else in its place (copper wires) but it's still doing the same thing. I can't swipe down the notifications bar and the middle is still having the same problem. There is a screw (one of the two) on the motherboard that I lost, but I don't know how that would make any difference. Thoughts?

Was there any resolution to this issue?

I am attempting to replace a severely cracked digitizer (that otherwise works perfectly - responding to touch everywhere) with a replacement digitizer and front housing part purchased from repairsuniverse. They've been gracious enough to exchange their product twice but all three replacements they've provided have identical behavior to the original poster. I'd be able to believe it were a hardware issue with the phone/motherboard IF the cracked digitizer didn't work in a similar way, but it's fine every time I reinstall it, which pretty much rules that scenario out.

I've been scouring threads for the better part of the day, but have been unable to find one that provides a solution.

it was such a long time ago. from what I remember it was just a bad digitizer. I suggest just returning the item and buying it from a different company. That phone, which wasn't even mine, I replaced the digitizer more than once and it only happened that one time.

Hope it helps
