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.

so i saw a few things online.. one guy said = turn off talkback , disable motions and gestures , disable OR enable touch sensitivity . either one and lastly the pain in the rear Factory reset ... backup.all to samsung cloud or google or both like i do.. and do factory reset.. yes its a pain but it can resolve this so its worth a try

Having same issue after 6.1 update when playing spotify and screen dims phone unresponsive.
Have to restart phone, takes a lot of effort to do that.
Matter of fact anything I have open has that problem.

My wife is having the same issue. She did have her screen replaced about a month ago. We have the same phone and mine has not had any issues so we are assuming that the screen replacement has something to do with the problem.

Do you have an aftermarket screen? That was the problem for me
