At times, the display stops detecting the touch. The display of the phone shows the distorted colors or it simply refuses to act according to the action performed by the user.

A similar issue was recently reported by the Galaxy Note FE owners. The Note FE users reported that a particular area of their phone’s screen stopped working. Upon trying a few solutions, they found that upgrading the touchscreen fixes the issue. It turns out that upgrading the touchscreen fixes a lot of other touch issues with the display of the phone.
