For this problem to manifest, your device should have very little juice. For example, if you connect your device to charger when it has near full battery, your device likely wont exhibit this problem. I just got a replacement epic, and charged it fully, and then tested it for screen issue - no issue was present, but then when juice got down to 25%, I connected it to charger, and sure enough my replacement epic also does the same thing. So make sure you test your devices when they are low on juice.
I think you are absolutely correct. The stock charger basically sucks. Even when the phone has more juice than 25%, the touchscreen is not fully responsive. Tried a different charger when the phone has less than 25% and my touchscreen works just fine.
My wife's phone was down to 5% and I tested your theory. ALL FOUR STOCK CHARGERS cause touchscreen issue. Tried the Iphone and Touchpad and Kodak Playsport charger and got no issue. Tried my 70% charged phone and while the touch screen is still usable, it is not 100% responsive like the other chargers.
Everyone needs to test this so we can initiate a recall. I just might start another thread to make it more visible.
Just curious -- do the people who have this problem use a screen protector? I don't and I don't have the issue.
Does it happen when you charge through USB connected to your PC?It's not the charger. Happens to me regardless of which charger I use and I have about 5. Doesn't matter if the phone is charged or not either.
