I was out in the cold here in Michigan last night for a couple hours and it was in the mid 20s. I know that the screen is capacitative so that if your fingers are cold, the touch won't register on the screen, but what I've also noticed is that if the phone becomes very cold, the surepress or click mechanism stops working. It is almost as if the cold causes the metal to contract and the screen is no longer elevated enough to press down. Not complaining, just an oberservation.
same here, i havent had any issues and its been mid 20s and 30s here now for a few weeks. maybe your fingers are just numb so you can feel it being pressed haha
I've noticed this as well. Mine has occured after the Storm was exposed to cold for and extended period (in the holster while I was working outside for a couple of hours with temps in the teens).
Same thing happened to me when I had my Storm. I was skiing up at Breckenridge and after 4 or so hours I tried to use my phone on a lift, with no luck. I couldnt select anything. Once I got into the car and it warmed up a little, all was fine. Not the reason I decided to return the Storm.
Maybe try this, sounds like it's too tight: Screen Click Problem fixed using a different method
(you'll have to do a search for it as the forums won't allow me to post URLs since I don't have 10 posts yet,,, sheesh)
