I have a problem with the top part (in portrait) of my screen not recognizing application buttons and fields in the that area of the screen right below the pull down notification bar.
It seems to be effecting all apps, but is more noticeable in apps that have actively used content in that area. The apps I have noticed it in are:
Maps, Note Everything, GTasks, Android Market, Dolphin Browser and the pull down notification screen itself (Clear All button isn't recognized).
It doesn't seem to be the screen real estate itself, because if you scroll down in applications that scroll, you can select things in that top part of the screen.
If you turn the phone, and go landscape, you can select the content at the top of the screen.
I have not loaded any new apps, and if I had to guess at a cause, I would say that turning the auto rotate on the screen off, and then back on, several times caused this problem. I do inversion for my back, and recently started reading email while I do it. Several days into this practice, I noticed this problem with the top part of the screen.
I tried restarting the phone numerous times, using the typing calibration tool (which is reputed online to fix dead spots), checking firmware, profile, PRL and Android Build for updates, and finally doing a factory reset and reloading all of my apps. No joy... Also looked for screen calibration apps in market and didn't find any.
Has anybody else experienced? Fixed (hopefully)?
Thanks in advance

I have the same issue with my EVO, it started a few months ago. I heard there was a fix from Sprint, no answere from HTC, and a lot of people are experiancing this issue. But I will try to see if there is some glitch in the software, I have ran some diagnostic tests on my phone and have come up empty on this, I have tried differant rom's and such with the same result. It must be a menu issue, cause i can pick stuff out of the app section with no issue, so it's not a dead spot. If I come up with a answere i will post it here first!
