[Q] G1 Screen Strangeness

---

Hi everyone, first post and it's about a G1 I recently purchased.

My phone is using the Cyanogen Mod 6.0.0-DS, which is freshly installed. The weird thing is that about 2/3 of my screen (when in portrait mode) is unresponsive when I place my finger on it.

When I touch in the Left 1/3 of the screen, it recognizes my touch and works. The even weirder part is that when I start my touch in the 1/3 and move into the other area of the screen, the phone recognizes my movement.

So say I'm on the home screen and swipe left to right. The screen recognizes my touch and I can hold down the touch into the right side of the screen and it follows my movements perfectly. It's only when I touch in that 2/3 right part of the screen when it touches not recognize the touch.

Now, my question is this: Is it software related or hardware related? Is there a setting I can use to maybe calibrate the screen. OR do I need to replace the screen (or digitizer? can someone help me understand the difference)?

Thanks in advance for reading. Any help is greatly appreciated. Ask questions if need be

I am having this issue, too. Anyone able to help?

Its common, I had couple of phones with intermediate touch issues on a portion of the screen, a new digitizer took care of that.
