Upper half of the screen not responding

hey...as the title suggests the upper half of the touch screen of my iphone(ziphone'd and at 1.1.4) suddenly stopped responding.I tried going through various threads on this but could not find a way to solve this.

I am outside the US and my wifi is on the dead portion so cant even ssh.
PLZ help!it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance

Ps:will a full restore help?..and should i use recovery mode or dfu?

can't tell you whether a restore will help but that is probably your best bet right now. got nothing to lose as your phone is not properly functioning. if you're familiar with DFU then put your phone into DFU and restore

the thing is with the little to no information you've given, it's like going to the doctors office saying, i'm sneezing, do i have cancer or just the flu.

you upgraded from 1.0.2 to 1.1.4? and the problem is still there?

my friends had a problem with the middle of the screen and apple just gave him a new one, no questions asked after a restore of course because they don't like jailbroken iphones for some reason lol don't know if that helps but thats all i know
