[Q] Digitizer unresponsive?

---

I got up this morning, grabbed my tablet, switched it on and found that no matter what, it wouldn't respond to touch input.
Hoping I could sort of "kick it" by using a keyboard I plugged one in and while that worked fine, it didn't unstick the digitizer.
Had to reboot.

Anyone else seen this?

I've had this happen once or twice, and as you mentioned the only way to get it to respond was by a reboot.

oooooo.... never happened to me for the full 6 day since i have this tab i suggest you turn then for replacement....

just remembered something are you guys by any chance use screen filter? that causes touch problems in some spots....

I'm using it on my phone but but not the iconia

its has happen twice in the last two days. Usually when the tab is left for a while hours. You're right the only way to unlock is to reboot.

Na, I'm not using a screen filter. It happened twice in the first couple of days of owning it and hasn't happened for the last couple of weeks. I've had the same thing happen on the Desire HD a couple of times as well. It doesn't happen very often so I'm not overly concerned.

Jup, sometimes the screen doesn't respond. I found that if you rotate it (even with the lock on) and then turn on the device the screen wants to rotate and will then be unresponsive. Reboot and all is fine. Seems like a software bug to me.

Just in case you haven't done so, remove the sticker on the right border. It has a metallic back and interferes with the screen. I had that happen on a display model at BB twice withing 10 minutes. Once I removed it, no more problems. And I haven't had any problems with my purchased one.

A friend of mine bought one online and complained about the same thing. I told him to remove the sticker and the issue went away.

the sticker on mine was removed in the first five minutes. haven't had the problem again yet. hope it was a fluke
