I think you should select clean flash again while flashing rom through mi flash tool!

I had the same problem with a new Mi A1. After installing twrp and flashing LineageOS the touch screen didn't work correctly. When touching it, sometimes it would respond in the wrong spot. Most touches were unresponsive. Booting back to twrp had the same problem. When I flashed stock Oreo with MiFlash it still was broken.

I managed to fix it doing the following (files available on androidfilehost from a user named edwaine):

1. Download MiFlash2017-7-20-0.zip which seems to be the latest version

2. Download the latest official Nougat ROM (not Oreo)
tissot_images_7.12.19_20171219.0000.00_7.1_d39fa89aaf.tgz

3. Put the phone in fastboot mode by holding power + volume down

4. Did a "clean all and lock" with MiFlash 2017.7.20.0

After this my phone booted to a black screen for a few minutes and then showed the initial setup with a working touch screen. I believe the initial problem was caused by not properly upgrading to Oreo. I didn't even check the stock firmware when it arrived, because I didn't think there were any issues just flashing newer firmware. I will now try to upgrade properly.

I hope this helps someone.

Bro, how about upgrade to Oreo? Is the touch still fixed?

Faced the same problem. I played with the firmware and stopped working the touchscreen. This tip rolled back to 7.1,2 helped. The phone began to work.
I updated it after the initial configuration and connection to the network, the phone itself downloaded the update and installed it. Updated to 8.1.0.
Thank you so much for sharing!

Hi, touch, fingerprint and capacitive buttons stopped working after I installed Pixel experience ROM, I rolled back to 7.1.2 using Mi flash tool according to your suggestion (same versions of Miflash and ROM as suggested by you). Still the problem isnt solved, please help.

same problem how did you solved it ?

 

[meet4300]

As my phone was in warranty, I was able to get it solved by replacing motherboard. Booting older versions of TWRP can get the touch working, this is suggestion is still to be tested. Try your luck if you can sort it out. In Pixel experience rom, there is an option of double tap to wake. I think thats the reason this fuss is all about. I think due to a different manufacturer, maybe our screens won't support it.

For those who still did not get touch working after installing stock nougat just unlock bootloader and boot twrp 3.2.1 (strictly never flash it...just hot boot it..... it's the reason ur touch got malfunctioning...)and reboot voila!...ur touch is restored

 

[diocore]

I still can't seem to get it to work.
Tried nougat and two oreo version but the issue remains.
The touchscreen does work after I boot the device but does not work after it wennt to sleep/lock screen.
The screen does also not work inside twrp

i also tried to install a custom rom via adb shell and twrp but the zip fails (9.0 and lineage)
I hope someone could help me

Disable DT2W and voila, fixed.
I don't know what the problem is, but I know how to "fix" it.

Same problem. Did you make any progress?

 

[mikla90]

Same problem. Did you make any progress?

I'm in trouble too. Tried Nougat, but didn't work. Any other ideas?

Edit: now I can't reflash anything from Nougat. It just says "Device is locked"

Well i found a solution for my case. The problem for me was the version of platform tools i used to lock-unlock boot-loader, boot the system and running any commands install HAL3 etc..
Every installation i did (firmwares, from nougat to oreo and last to pie) was executed with the platform tools latest windows version that boot.img had (14,888KB) size.
The version that my touch screen began to work again is the platform tools r.28.0.1.windows that had the boot.img (34,928KB) size.
When i booted the phone in fastboot mode, i opened platform tools r.28.0.1.windows and run the command "fastboot boot boot.img" the phone rebooted and the touch was working again I think that the boot.img file of this version is the correct to boot the phone normally.
Hope this helps....
