The touchscreen on my N9 has become intermittently unresponsive. It is fine most of the time, but sometimes stops responding to touch all together, or responds in a very jerky and 'gappy' way. Sometimes on starting up it accepts no touch input (for the unlock code) and I have to restart the phone.

I have also noticed that the Swype keyboard trace (the line you draw between letters) has more 'jaggies' than before, and occasionally has gaps. This has made typing more difficult when this behaviour is manifested, about 10-15% of the time. It stopped me writing this thread on the N9 - I had to turn to my trusty N900.

Has anyone else seen this issue?

Eeeeiiiww, hardware fault maybe?
Not seen a single person with this yet...
Except users with some lag pre 1.1, but that's diff. to what you're describing.
You're on 1.1 right?

Ive observe this to mine as well, but not as bad. Occasionally the screen become nonresponsive but when I press the unlock button it turns to normal.

I think it may have been a certain brand of handcream that was interfering with the capacitative touch somehow.

Seriously. Stopped using the handcream and the problem has gone away.

I have kind of noticed this too, but i think it has been about the shape of the phone and me touching just a wee bit on the edge of the screen with part of my hand so it's not registering my finger just right.

Been able to eliminate the first problem when i noticed the above, but it's of course another story of some of you have actual hw faults.

Also as it has been raining for past 2 weeks non stop in here Finland i have noticed the droplets mess the responsiveness of the screen more easily than on GS or ip4.
