LWW Return doesn't always work. - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hey !
My rom is full stock .431 ICS version but the same problem happens on .587
The return button sometimes lags and doesnt work. After few spam clicks it starts to work again. The touchscreen in that place of the screen is working so it must be something else.
Any idea what to do? Or I have to send it on the guarantee.

If you have never rooted and most importantly unlocked boot loader then my advice Is that you should send it to service center asap..

It's a known problem, many people get this. Sometimes they "spam" the button to fix this or lock and unlock again or reboot. As far as I know there's no fix, yet....
Maybe really bring it to service if you never rooted and bootloader is locked...

On some LWW forum people told me that it also happens to people with GB and after they send it to service they just flash new rom and thats all. The guarantee is 2 years and I can do everything they will do there here at home , so better not to lose 2 weeks without a phone..
Some people also have problems like it with the right button (menu) . For me it's working fine.
Well thanks for info anyway. I'll keep with it for now. If it gets worse I'm sending it to service.
-1 point to Sony Ericsson for a bug on the whole model line

I also sometimes happens that problem flashing the tft try again or repair with PC Companion but can you solve the problem

I found the reason. Dirty screen on return/menu place...
After I cleaned it and made it dirty again its the same, so it's not a soft or hardware problem
Just keep the screen really clean

ahha my LWW is always dirty after a full day of use xD, I'll take your suggestion into account, would play around with a cleaning cloth to keep the screen to avoid this problem :highfive:

problem with touch screen

I have a big problem!! I flashed the new minicm7 rom and it was running perfectly till now, that my touch screen went crazy!! it scroll down all the time, no matter where I pressed, it presses by it self at the bottom of the screen... sometimes it works a little bit, and then my problem comes back again... I tried to reflash the rom, wipin and factory reset, but I got the same problem even in the lock screen...
Could it be hardware problem? My phone didn't suffer a fall or something like that... it's very annoying!!
has anyone experienced that?? what should I do? should I try to reppair with SEUS? in that case how?? and if the problem persists what should I do to leave it exactly in the stock way in case I had to send it to reppair?? because I still have warranty... please help me!! I'm desperated!!!
thanks if you please help me!!
i'm sure there must be someone who can help me! please
I only get this problem if my phone is on charge. But other than that its ok.

I've experienced this but on the Cyanocream Sandwich. It fixed itself upon reboot. never had the problem since. might not work in your case, but give it a shot
thx you 2 for your advices but nothing seems to work. i flashed minicm2.1.4 after 2.1.5 and the problem persists... when I was desperated I tried update with pc companion and it seemed to work but the problem came back. what its amazing is that its not happening continously but randomly and if it happens I block and unblock the screen and it works for a while...
when the problem appears what i experienced its exactly like this: if i watch web pages and i scroll down my screen goes to the top inmediately and i cannot keep on scrolling down,or if im writing if i press a letter one different below is pressed instead...or watching my apps if i go left it goes down crazy as if it wanted to go beyond the bottom of the screen...
if anyone else could help i would appreciate it,if not i'll have to send it to repair for free because its still on guarantee... in that case how should i do to leave my phone in the exactly stock way for the technicals not to see its rooted or unlocked bootloader...
thank you in advance!
As you said you have to use SEUS to return to stock FW. Just turn off your phone and then follow the steps on the computer. When it comes to relocking the bootloader, I cant help you as I have not tried to relock mine yet.
Good luck

this is MY OWN video...
thanks for letting me know I'm not alone....
i sent it to the service center... the "smart" man there said it was a software issue, to which i did not agree...
we had a small quarrel then he took it and sad they'll troubleshoot it...
one week later i called they said it was ready
so i went to get it. and surprisingly enough, they HARD BRICKED IT !!!! :cyclops:
HOW IDIOTIC IS THAT ???
the man said they found out it was a touchscreen issue and replaced the touchscreen (which i believe is a total BS because the touchscreen WORKS even though i don't see what i'm doing but the screen accepts my touches as orders)
so he turned the phone ON and the sony ericsson logo came up, dimmed then bright, then it's supposed to dim again, right ???
NO , it stayed bright and phone wouldn't go past this step
he tried several times with no luck, so he had to take it back to try to fix it again but i think they will eventually replace the phone because they don't seem to KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING !!!
sorry to hear this .
I called service and they said they can return old andoid.factory.so it will not be ICS anymore but it will work.
God deal to me
I will let you know results

i went to them to get it after they restored old GB firmware.
the phone would not even start...
i believe they bricked it, because today i called to ask if it was fixed yet, and they said, no, it was sent to their main center in Alexandria.
which sounds like i'm getting a new phone !!

i tried this but it remained...
you either had a different issue or you just have to get your phone HOT enough to make it reappear
going tomorrow to get it from teh service center
i believe it won't be fixed...
just as i thought
they did NOT fix it,
but they REPLACED IT with a new device... i knew because 1st thing i did was check *#06# and found a different Serial Number
they told me they replaced he motherboard
after clarification, they meant they replaced THE WHOLE phone except the battery and bckcover
me too this happend to me too but i figured out i was using a bad mod for my ray and the problem dissapeard
i had no MODS
i had original STOCK GB .42 updated to .62 then to ICS .562 then to ICS .431
Hmm Reflash Firmware>? maybe it could work or try freeing up ram
Very similar to a problem I had: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvTFg2J0L4o
The blackout would happen as well as flickering. Not only that, but a weird clicking noise could be heard near the USB port, and the sound did not work at all. I sent it back and got a new one.

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a fix. Flashing a new ROM will not solve the problem. It's a hardware issue. Only way to fix it is to send for repair or replacement. I tried everything when it happened to me and nothing worked.

plz do let me know if there is sm posibl solution to this problem......plzzzzz

[Q] Problem with xperia u touch button ( home, cancel etc)

I just got an xperia for likely much les than 1/2 a month, the problem im having with it is my home cancel buttons, the 3 buttons on the footer of the phone just above the lightening thing, when i install skype and sometime without installing it i get about problems with the 3 touch buttons, sometimes the problem goes about the way they respond, that is sometimes they take time to respond or sometimes they don't respond at all, i get this problem like about once during the day thats the reason i cant take it back to the store in case it starts working, using the touch buttons with vibrations, sometimes i take time and press it still it does not respond to any requests, also there are times when this problem is going through and i press the cancel button a few times, you hear the vibration and then it stops responding in some time that is pressing the middle button might not lead to any request to be performed
the problem is similar to this one but the solution does not appear to work in mine

[Q] sk17i - touchscreen doesnt respond - sofware or hardware problem ?

hello friends. this is my first post because i got a problem with my xperia mini pro.
i have to tell you it from the beginning because i think it is important to understand where is the problem. it was about some moths ago when i had problems when my phone was in standby and someone called me, it happened sometimes that my touch screen didnt responded and i couldnt take that call and had to restart phone. after restart it was ok. it didnt happen so often but with tim (i think another month) i happened maybe once every day. and maybe a month after that i first got stuck during i was doing something in my phone - not in locked state. sometimes didnt helped even one restart so i had to remove battery for a while but after that it was fine. at least for a while. i think that problems with touchscreen (or maybe better with digitizer) happened almost every day. i tried also reflash some custom rom i used before but it didnt help. so it got into state when touchscreen stopped working and i was very happy when it started to work for a while. it happed sometimes after factory reset in android service menu and once after many times reflash of rom and kernel but only till next restart. i also locked bootloader and gave there stock rom and many times reflashed stock rom but nothing helped now.
Lets say i also tried some advices in that that tutorial about 10 different way to repair bricked touchscreen. but i am not sure if it is actually hardware or software issue. it is very important to aim my effort. i dont know if i shouldnt buy some whole touchscreen+lcdf or just digitizer for sk17i on ebay or on the other hand try to solve software issue and reflash, restart, reset bricked touchscreen.
i dont have much experience like some guy in mobile phone service. in my mobile service they told me it is hardware issue and they will repaire it but it is very expensive from them. but i dont believe that guys at all so i write here.
My phone is after the warranty so i got an idea to buy sopme used sk17i with a warranty, change display with mine and give it into the mobile phone service where they will change the touchscreen for free and i could sell that both phones after that. i dont want that xperia anymore. but this can only work if it a hardware problem
so what do you think guys?
thanks for your advices

If you did a clean flash with stock rom & that didn't helped than its an hardware problem!
But you are luck if your touch is miss calibrated or its an overheating issue.
Do your mini's soft buttons starts pressing itself?
Go have a look here
[solved]
i solved it with new lcd + digitizer from ebay and made some manual assembly. my phone now works great, so i suppose problem was caused by hardware

Just want to say that same thing is happening to me last few weeks with same phone. Thing is, it didn't worked worse and worse, but it just worked well one day, and the other day it was terrible, and it still works equally terrible. I never rooted or flashed my phone and never sleeped on it so I think that's not the problem.
Hope you can help us..

i think u are supposed to flash ur ROM using flash tool! bout for doing these u need to downolad ftf. file from the ROM section and flashtool software also! its very easy to flash ur phone!!!!! i hope problem will be solved!!!!! dont forget to back up ur files before flashing!!!!!!!
Same here
Hey, I'm having the same issue with my Xperia Neo (MT15i). :crying:
My phone is nearly 2 years old. I have used Gingerbread, then ICS, Jelly Bean (Rooted-Cyanagenmod). I had no issue with the touch screen earlier. Since the phone performs bit slow on advanced android versions I decided to install Gingerbread again to make it faster.
From the day I installed GB again, I'm having this issue.
Gotta swipe about 4 times to answer or reject a call. (Even I do press power button to off the screen, then power button again only then swipe works)
Swipe about 4 times to unlock the screen.
Try the pattern about 4 times.
I believe it's a software issue. If it's a hardware issue touch screen should not be working at all right? The thing is, it only malfunctions like that for the first 4~5 touches when the screen turned on. After that the whole touch screen works perfectly.
I was using my phone rooted for a long time without any issue. This started when I tried to flash gingerbread again in last month. I flashed another gingerbread tft, but the problem still remains.
Today I flashed the kernel to FusioN v5.5 and installed MIUI 5, still the issue is there...

i am totally confused bro what to do!!! on a very day i went to a hardware technicians shop to solve the problem!! they said it may be hardware problem but did not say surely!!!!!!! i am looking forward a kind help from any expert of this forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm having the same.i have tried anything but still same issue.
Hello people!
I had the same problem when 2 of my friends tried to pull the phone vigorously! -_-
I had to swipe 4-5 to get it to respond and the screen would act weird for another couple of seconds! -_-
Tried Factory Reset etc but still no use!
So I took it to the service center and they said it could be the digitizer(screen) problem but not sure, and that it would cost 4k for that!
Fortunately I had another problem with the sound setting on my phone so I gave it back to them to solve that at least. They flashed the phone with latest ftf(some GB ftf at the time) and gave back the phone saying they couldn't solve the sound issue.
BUT to my surprise/luck my screen prob was fixed! And I dint pay them a single pie!
So I think y'all should try flashing the Stock ftf, preferably ICS 4.1.B.0.587 and its Kernel
Here is the link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952333
I hope it works for y'all! All the best!
P.S - I'm now running Super Jelly Bean 8.0 on SuperFusionNeoKK Kernel
