Update 6.1 made touchscreen unusable without S Pen

[Lilith66]

After the update my touch screen will not work unless I use the Spen. Samsung made a comment blaming it on Google?? But I've heard from other people it's been an issue for a couple of years so I'm curious on when they plan to fix it because this is ridiculous, I have some apps where I can only log in with my fingerprint.

After updating my s23 ultra to the newest 6.1, my phone will only respond to my s pen!! I can't use my fingers at all!! This is so annoying!! Anyone else having this issue???

can you try to disable spen ? clear cache partition too ... try safe mode too and see if screen works there

i know. im sorry . its a hard thing, but its happening after the update so.this has to go to top of the pile for fixes, wish there was a easy way just to roll.back on any update that has bugs like this , till.they got things fixed ...sadly bugs come to all companies..i.rembr i had a few when i had iphone for years...but not being able to use touch screen is a **bleep** major one in.my opinion
