Hi,
On my Galaxy S3, the touch screen frequently stops responding while being used. It doesn't matter which app I am in. After some testing, it seems to happen when I press the screen more firmly (although not particularly hard). Thus it happens seemingly randomly while in use.
Pressing the power button to put the phone into sleep mode then again to return to the lock screen clears the trouble, but only until the next firm press.
As a bit of background on the phone: Initially, the back/menu buttons stopped working. I have replacement touch sensors for them, but have yet to try replacing them.
Has anyone seen this problem?
Is it a problem with a digitizer? Or just software?
Does this problem indicate worse things to come for my touch screen?
Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
Colin
