hi
can anyone please help me?
i have had an atrix for almost a year now and have had no issues with it. recently i took a big step and decided to get the cm10 rom by th3bill onto my atrix!
all worked fine for a few weeks until about a week ago. i noticed that my lockscreen pattern wasnt entering as normal. the pattern would not connect to the dots i wanted it to. on the main screen if i tap on the central button to get to the menu for my apps it will automatically respond my touch to the right/left icon and take me onto my contacts/sms instead. also while typing certain letters e.g "t" will not be recognised and instead "r" will show up instead.
somehow i managed to remove my pattern lock but the other issues are still present.
i thought that it may be a bug with the rom so i decided to go back to cm7.2 which was running perfectly on the phone thinking that this may be the solution, but even that rom is now giving me the same problem :crying:
can someone please advise me as to what the problem is/what i should do?
thnx in advance
Ok so i also had/have this problem. You can find a temporary solution and info here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27595402&postcount=1
I replaced my digitizer and the dead zone changed position.So know that replacing the digitizer might help or might not help...
Good luck

I use my HTC Hero with careful and never drop it. Everything was just fine until 3 days ago, when I texted a message, i noticed that the screen didn't response with my finger. I touch on line on the top of keyboard ( Q-W-E-R-T-Y...) but all it response was Enter, Backspace, Space, Settings...( all the buttons at bottom ) and type automatically when I don't touch the screen anymore ( it just auto-type all the icon at the bottom). And it appear at least 5times each day. When I got this problem, I lock the screen and then unlock the screen, do that for 3-4times and that weird things disappeared.
I tried factory reset over 3 times and re-calibrate many times but it useless. My phone is using Official Rom and haven't rooted yet. Yesterday, i tried to rooted it and installed another Custom Rom to see whether this problem will be solved or not, but it still the same. Does anyone ever have this problem? Please help me.
Here's my video I recorded to let you see about this problem ( on the attach file - Sorry i'm newbie in this forum so that I can't embed a video I've uploaded on Youtube because it said that "To prevent spam to the forums, new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages" )View attachment 443134

THanks, I've read it but all I saw in that thread is that people get issues about they cannot touch the bottom screen all the time, but for me-it still works, just get weird for sometimes, so I wonder if anyone knows how to fix it? Or let me know is it the software problem or hardware problem?
the main easy solution would be re-flash

Hi there!
First time I need to make a topic, as I don't find the answer anywhere..
Had my Touchpad since about two weeks.
However the accelerometer has not functioned at all since I got it.
First thing to check is the auto rotation lock -> it's turned off
Second thing I did was download a sensor visualizer app -> Seismograph.. This shows very weird results for the x-axis (see attached file), fyi, the Y and Z-axis functioned as expected..
Then the third thing I tried, Need For Speed Hot Persuit... A game that uses the X-axis accelerometer (right!?)
This works brilliant!
Other things I have done to troubleshoot this:
Restart the device.
Full reset the device.
Run HP doctor.
All have failed in resolving my problem.
As I've bought the touchpad from a french webstore (fnac.com), HP Netherlands (where I'm from) tells me I need to get back to them for a solution, as they don't offer worldwide repair (unlike ASUS for example).
Fnac.com has not answered to my request to exchange the product (2 days after I got it). And actually I just want to solve it myself if possible, bought it for fun anyways (and reading of course xD)
Any ideas how I can make the OS recognize the accelerometer?
Last thing, the auto rotation functions in the following way: Tablet is stuck in landscape, I turn to portrait, screen turns as well, but within the second the tablet is back in landscape. This behavior can be read from the seismograph screenshot.
Thanks!
Hello
I just started a new thread for a different accelerometer problem (it is just dead)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1284760
Was wondering how you ended up fixing your problem.
thanks
Just wanted to ask you the same question...
I still have the same problem. Need to contact Fnac.fr, but my french sucks and my time is scarce. So have been postponing this. My unit actually came DOA.. however Fnac didn't respond to my request, and has now asked me to call them.. sucky service
You have no solution I guess?
Well this is odd..
Out of nothing the auto rotate function is working since today.. I noticed it while reading a PDF in Android. Booting back to WebOS didn't make a difference, the sensor is working again
I've got no clue what did the trick.. I have not updated the kernel or something like that lately.
I wonder if the sensor was kicked back into action by brute force (for instance my cat jumping on the tablet..)
Anyway, problem soved for now =D
Hey Everyone..im new here
I recently bought a GalaxyS2, and noticed something..now, just thought maybe someone to confirm this with me.
After installing an app..for example, SKYPE....
Whenever I reboot the phone, during the media scanning process, The icon tray at the bottom gets replaced by these apps I downloaded for a couple seconds during the boot up (scanning).
Is this normal? Like i mentioned..the phone icon in the lower tray, gets replaced with Skype..and after the scanning of the media is complete..it reverts back to the phone icon.
This normally happens with all 3 icons, except for the applications icon...so basically during the startup of the phone, all first 3 icons, are replaced with the 3 other app icons for a couple seconds.
Sorry for the repetition here...just thought id try make myself clear
Any feedback MUCH appreciated..
PEACE from South Africa!
R
"BUMP" Any advice much appreicated...
I have a similar issue. Not sure if its normal.
Will keep track of this thread
Hey Tooth..
Dont think you going to get an answer here...no-one seems to answers or know anything about this.
Cheers
Its normal for a few seconds .
Its not a problem .

Dear memeber
i have a new problem with my htc legend its sometimes when i need to do something the touch screen give me a wrong selection and other times it not respond ,,, i do a restart for the phone and it back to work .. but i can't keep turn the phone off and re on it if somebody no how to fix this error its will be great and i keep the screen clean from everything i keep clean it but that is not help
Hello,
It happens too with my old ROM (B0.4.8), but didn't find the origin of the problem.
Sometimes it happens with my new ROM (CM9 Beta4) but only when I charge it (when by USB), as soon as I disconnect the cable, the phone is functionnal...
yeah but its not a problem with the room because i didn't do anything for the Os on it .. it just start like this sometimes it respond other times no .. if it work you have to made a selection many time or restart the phone
I experience it too. As I remembered after installing HomICS Venus this problem occur. I do not know whether its ROM related or not. I tried to flash another ROM ex. BlaYO ROM and CRQ 1.3 but the problems still persist.
I had this problem too - sent it to HTC and they exchanged my Legend for a new one ----- as I heared it is a common problem and has to do with the grounding of the touchscreen -> that is why it works sometimes and sometimes it doesnt
Sorry to say that I too suffer from this problem. Also, the part of my screen, where the power widget on the notification bar is resting, is completely unresponsive. I need to use the trackball to hit those buttons. And also, sometimes the screen can just go bananas and go into spasmic movements on its own. In my frustration once I hit the screen really hard with my knuckles and that temporarily fixed the spasmic movements. But it still reoccurs. I assume I would need my warranty to replace my phone, but my warranty has already ran out.
I can also confirm that it has NOTHING to do with your ROM. It started for me when I was running CyanogenMod 7.1, but I still have the same problems on stock ROM, HomICS, Miui, basically any ROM.
Hello, i am using Samsung galaxy S3 international version yesterday my friend told me that the jelly bean update is released, so i tried updating it
and it worked fine
the model version says now 4.1.1
I am using every thing default in the phone did not change the launcher or the lock screen i had this phone for 2 weeks now
Here is my problem! every thing worked fine but when i went to my lock screen i noticed the left side of it really bright, when i go back to my home page the brightness goes away, I am using the same WP for both so it was very easy to catch on
I made then both WPs black to really see it, and it was very very obvious on the lock screen, the white was really showing, but in the homepage it is normal, you can even see it with a print screen, how weird is that? i have taken two photos one from the lock and one from the home,
Even tho the lock one is hard to see but trust me its x10 worse than that when you see it in the eye
This is the Lock screen

This is the home screen
http: //i.imgur .com/BgaWy.png
it is the same WP on both
does any one have a clue what might be going on :S?
if you need any more info please tell me i will give what ever info you need
Did you try reset to factory defaults?
yes, same thing
any one knooooooooooooow??????????????????????????????????????????????
Ok, I would do the following if it is possible at all with your device:
1) flash back your old firmware
2) do reset to factory defaults again
3) check if the problem is still here
If the problem persists - something is wrong with your device. Next step is locating nearest service office.
If not - it is software problem, file a bug to Samsung and wait until they fix it.
Not really optimistic, but I don't have anything better
how can i flash back to old firmware?
