[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamthecosmos:
I've got the same problem as the OP... I had my phone charging overnight and this morning when I first went to use the phone I could not unlock the screen. I could wake the screen via the home button, and see I had a missed call etc but it just wasn't responding to touch. BTW I can't remember if when I first tried to unlock the phone if it was charging or not but really this shouldn't matter.... oh and btw, I'm not rooted or anything either! Naturally I rebooted the phone but still the same problem....so I tried a battery pull and still the same problem. Just now I did a factory reset but the touch screen still isn't working! I guess this is a hardware problem so I'm going to get it fixed under warranty by Samsung! Gutted that I will likely be without my phone for a week or 2! :(

EDIT, UPDATE...

Well, I was just on my way to the repair shop Samsung warranty had told me to take it too, and I took my sim card out to put in my old Hero (the only thing I hadn't tried!) and I couldn't believe it but the touch screen started working fine again! Weird, but that is now my advice if anyone else has a problem with their touch screen not working - oh and I took the sim out whilst the phone was still turned on. Crisis averted!

UPDATE 2

Sadly this has happened about 4 times to me now and I'm just waiting for the inevitable next time. Each time doing a factory reset then taking the sim card out seems to bring the screen back to life (though last time not immediately) but I shouldn't have to put up with this. Problem is, I don't want to send off a seemingly perfectly working phone to get repaired as I fear they will struggle to notice the problem, never mind fix it! I'm hoping a new firmware comes out soon, in the hope that it may resolve my issues...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gibben1971:
Me as well ...

I have had this happen to me twice now (Touchscreen not responding).

The first time I had just installed a game and thought it must have been related to that. Pulled the battery and no joy, left it for a while and it came back to life...

Second time I was surfing the web and it stopped responding, pulled the battery and left it for maybe a minute but no joy .... pulled the battery again and left it for probably 20min and it came back to life. When it came back up I noticed the livewallpaper had been turned off and my widgets were gone from the homescreen.

What I did notice when it wasn't working was it had "safe mode" displayed at the bottom left of the screen :confused:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blaubeer:
Same issue - Is there ANY way to save my data before I send it in for repair/replace?

Hi all,

As of this morning, I have exactly the same issue as the OP. Screen doesn't react to touch, with the exception of the capacitive buttons. I found a dude on YouTube that had the same issue: youtu.be/0oIdllWiV4I

The last thing I did with the phone before it started misbehaving was to answer a call. The phone was on the charger when the call came in - I can't recall whether I unplugged it before answering, or after, or at all during the call. Not sure it has any relevance anyway, only mention it because I've seen reports of people's screens no longer reacting to touch when the phone is plugged in to a charger (apparently it even states in the manual that this may happen).

Anyway, whilst all my contacts, SMS, photos etc are backed up to the cloud, the same can't be said for my app data. Before I lose hours and hours of progress in various games, or all my settings in numerous other apps, etc, can anyone think of any way to get access to the memory of the phone, bearing in mind the following:

I can't connect to Kies to pull a back-up because bluetooth is currently enabled on the phone and when one connects the USB cable, it says "Activating USB mode will deactivate Bluetooth. Continue?" but I can't click the Yes button

I can't connect in USB mass storage mode because I can't navigate to the settings menu entry to enable it

I can't turn Bluetooth off in order to get Kies working, becuase I can't get to the settings menu or pull down the notification bar to reach the power control.

I can't use Voice input to control the device (on the off chance there was a "bluetooth off" voice command) because (presumably with the most recent firmware I flashed via Kies a few weeks back) for some reason Vlingo is no longer the app on the double-home button action. Instead it calls Samsung Voice and wants to walk me through a first use tutorial, but I can't click the next/skip buttons

I installed via Android Market push the app belonging to www_remoteaccessphone_com as it promises to be able to remotely switch bluetooth off, but the website says I haven't installed the app yet, presumably because alrhough I was able to install it without touching the phone, it probably needs to be run at least once to set it up, and I obviously can't do that

I can't start Kies Air to try and get my data that way (starting it would require using the touch screen)

Kies via bluetooth isn't supported on Android

Needless to say, the data I'm trying to retrieve is on the internal memory, not the SD card. As you can see I've been trying all sorts of creative things, but I'm fairly sure I'm screwed. Any bright ideas I haven't thought of? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitrile:
flash it with CF-root, boot into CWM recovery, do a nandroid backup after that, use CWM recovery again to mount USB storage, connect to your PC and pull everything off.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blaubeer:
Thanks for the quick advice. I guess I'll need to use my girlfriend's phone to download CF-root and then transfer the SD card to my device. Quick question before I proceed though - is it possible to remove all traces of such tampering, since I've already made out with Samsung that I'm sending it in for repair, and I'm not sure they will honour the warranty if they see it has been rooted etc.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitrile:
get a USB jig off ebay or amazon to reset the flash counter. should not cost more than 5 or 6 euros, shipped.

anyways you need to flash CF-root through ODIN if you are coming from stock. instructions are all in chainfire's cf-root thread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blaubeer:
Nandroid Restore

So I successfully rooted, used CWM to do a Nandroid backup, mounted the sd_card and saved the contents (including the nandroid backup) to my PC, reflashed the stock rom & kernel, usb-jigged it to get the counter back to zero/original and sent the phone in for repair. My efforts paid off as they repaired it without question under warranty. I just received the phone back and today set about restoring my backup:

Copied the sd_card contents I'd saved to my HDD back onto the phone

Re-roooted it with Cf-mod.

Used CWM to restore the backup I took before sending it in

It restored boot/system/data/cache successfully

selected reboot now in CWM

The result is that it is still missing all my apps. It only seems to have the "data" like my camera shots and SMS messages, system settings like whether bluetooth is on or off, the volume level, Wifi networks etc. So something was restored. But there is no Google Account configured, the lock screen picture is the default not the one I had beforehand, and as I said, all the apps - the main reason I did this whole thing as my personal data is all backed up to the cloud on a regular basis anyway - have not been restored. Am I confused? I thought a nandroid backup took a complete snapshot of everything, apps included.

Finding out the list of Apps I had in order to reinstall them is not an issue - I have a list of everything I had installed saved on AppBrain. But if I reinstall the apps, all the settings (or progress in the games) within those freshly installed apps will be back to square one, not where I left them, right? Or should I reinstall the apps and then restore the data partition over the top again?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrandoHD:
Are you guys using any type of screen protectors, cause if you are, that may be the issue s their have been reports that the screen becomes unresponsive with certain screen protectors when connected to a charger.

However, if you are not using a screen protector, then I would suggest getting the unit replaced as you should not have to do anything, root or otherwise, to get the touchscreen working on a touchscreen phone
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blaubeer:
Nope, no screen protector or any kind of case for that matter. Anyway, that isn't my issue anymore. The touch-sensitive unit was defective, the phone was repaired under warranty. My issue now is getting my apps & settings back. I have meanwhile read elsewhere that Nandroid doesn't back up the apps - pretty deceptive "backs up everything!" "it is like time travel" etc comments around here then.

Anyway, I reinstalled all the apps I had previously, and thought by reapplying the data partition from the nandroid backup it might then bring back the settings for the reinstalled apps. Instead all it did was remove all those apps again - now I am really confused. How come the restore DOESN'T bring back the apps I used to have, but DOES remove the ones I subsequently install. Does Nandroid touch the apps or doesn't it?

Having the same problem:( while charging touch screen doesn't work

Stock charger and usb cable

i was on CM7 but that happend so i flashed stock but no luck:(

I will write more observations
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youngunner-2:
I have had a couple galaxy s 2's with a similar issue, although through resetting the phone and powering on and off was able to get them working again.

I would contact samsung and inform them of your problem. They are good about replacing broken phones, especially if it's beyond your control.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josepetit:
Try to reinstall firmware in ODIN!!..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s2d4:
On the instructions manual that came with the phone. It does say that touchscreen may not function correctly due to low charging.

were the soft keys working??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Well when I charge my phone the touch screen surely becomes unresponsive. Almost impossible to Swype on, weird. But it's not completely dead. This happening from the very first day, don't know what's this about, had this freaking problem with all kernel as well, so what it could be?

:confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzwientjuh:
Well mine is dead ... new rom, stock rom

new kernel, stock kernel,

Using different chargers and battery's ...

Nothing seems to work!!! :(

I guess I'll buy a USB Jig and bring it back to the store

help

this happened to me this morning! i have an LG chocolate touch and a few tiems before the touch screen would stop working and i would just restart my phone and it would be fine but when i woke up this morning it wasn't working and i have probably restarted my phone at least twenty times today and it still isn't responding.. :( i took the battery out and i am going to leave it for a little bit, does anyone think that will help?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] froggydoddy:
Fixed
