Default TouchScreen stops working occasionally

Hello,

On about 3 or 4 occasions I've gone to unlock my phone with my face and its failed so I've gone to pattern unlock as fail safe only to notice that the screen is unresponsive. No matter what I try it just doesn't respond. A reboot fixes this.

Has anyone else noticed this? Its not like the other touchscreen issues where it seems multi touch related, it does nothing.

Once time I managed to unlock it with my face realising the issue and I found the touchscreen still didn't work even when unlocked.

I have had same issue, I'm on 4.0.3 aosp. I have noticed, if I leave phone for a little while without use, touch screen does come back, most of the time

Running juice defender as well, might try removing and see

I removed Juice Defender but I still had the issue. It just did it again while charging. Are you all using face unlock?
