It's not supposed to do that. My FP3 got unresponsive after a while as well. The trick was to open it up and gently tighten all screws.

I'll give it a go I can't see how that would help but maybe it's a loose contact to the touchscreen or something

Im curious, why would that help?

Because in IT, the fix is always to power cycle. If that doesn't work, you take it apart and put it back together and then magic happens.

I've taken the battery out a number of times and it's not changed anything, I might try a full disassembly at some point anyway just for the fun of it though
