[Q] Phantom menu?? - AT&T LG Optimus G

1 month ago it begins...
im in using an app and ramdomly the screen start to flicker
as someone was pressing as a crazy the menu and back softkeys
sometimes a reboot fix it...sometimes doesn't...
it drives me crazy!!, dunno how to start to fix this
please, any idea will be appreciated!!
thanks

since yesterday, flashed the stock rom with LGNPST...not the stock that i've flashed with CWM...
at this moment, didn't installed nothing, didn't rooted, and phone is nice and stable...
maybe an app is causing it?
maybe root?
so...let's try it a little more and see what happens

Might be a hardware issue. I broke my capacitive keys once and they kept pressing automatically like you described

right now im on ATT TOT stock file...and it's amazing!!
nicely and flawesly!!
no issues so far!!
by the way, how u solved ur problem??

Agreed. I was forced to use the stock tot for a few days because I couldn't unlock. The stock ROM is actually the smoothest ROM I've used. The boot time is only a few seconds. I'm on Nocturnal now, because I have to have Google Now and the jellybean ROM had BSOD issues.

seems that the rom or some software was causing this ****!!

Screen auto rotates when I unlock it. Why?

Hey everyone, I googled this and searched xda and I can't find anything so I thought I would just ask.
I am running a pre-rooted stock rom with the update. Completely stock except for root. When the screen has been off for a few minutes it will autorotate to landscape a second after I unlock it. This happens even when the phone is completely still, and vertical. I am lost as to why this is, as it does it about 90% of the time. Locking the phone and then immediately unlocking it doesn't recreate the problem, the screen has to be off for about 3-5 minutes. It is irritating. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I think this is a bug in sense 3.0 and sense 3.5 because i noticed the issue in all custom sense roms including virtuous affinity and bliss ports on my glacier.

go to settings, display, and uncheck autorotate on...hold the power button and press restart, do not turn off and on, just press restart...the go back and check autorotate on again...see if that helps.
That seems to have helped. Tried to recreate the issue a few times since trying the fix above, and it isn't doing it. Still early though. I'll post again if it persists. Thanks for the help

Okay, so the problem it's still there. I had to go to work shortly after my last post and just got home and around to posting about it. I don't seem to recall having this issue with the stock rom without the ota update. Guess I'll just have to wait for a good rom to flash, and how that the problem is gone. Thanks for the tip though.

there are always going to be some bugs with roms, even with the cyanogen mod rom, which is the biggest of them all there are bugs...even with oem stock roms there are bugs...all you can do is try another one, or contact the developer

Unresponsive touch screen

So, recently, my touch screen has been pretty wonky. Sometimes it doesnt work at all and even pulling the battery and booting it back up doesn't fix it. Sometimes when it locks The screen isn't responsive afterwards to unlock but then locking and waking the screen again fixes it. Just wondering if there is a fix for this or if anyone else has had these same problems. I've trued full CWM wipes and Fastboot wipes and also tried different ROMs. Any help would be cool but if not I may just have to ditch the MAtrix for a different phone until my upgrade.
What is your phone currently running at the moment?

I got the same issue, when charging my Atrix, touchscreen won't work.

For those having issues while charging, make sure you are using a motorola charger. Please give results back.

So, I've been using the Wet Dream blur ROM for the past week and it's acting about the same way. I haven't had to go to the extreme of wiping it yet while on Wet but unresponsiveness is still a problem here and there.
EDIT: I haven't had touch capability since the 10th. I've tried flashing a couple other ROMs to no avail and don't really know what to do at this point.
Is a warranty claim even possible or would it just be a futile effort?
EDIT II: Sent it in on a warranty claim. We will see what happens I suppose. If not, I'm going GSII
EDIT The Third: Well, after fruitcake back to stock I sent it in and they fixed it all up and sent it back to me. So, that's that for what it's worth. Like the sig says my MAtrix got stolen so I'm on to the GSII forums but I'm definitely going to keep up with what's going on with Atrix.

Xperia S keeps freezing

It's been happening for a few days, and I know it's not that bigger deal but it's bugging the crap out of me.
Almost Every time I go on a app the dam phone freezes, could be just for a few seconds or for 10 mins, and if it freezes for a long time I have to reboot it by holding the volume buttons and power buttons.
I've deleted all my apps and reinstalled them but keeps happening.
Anyone come across this and found a solution?

Mine reboots all the time, no matter what I do, even while in a call! It's really annoying! It happens from the beginning, since then I've changed all the firmwares available, rooted with stock kernels, now I'm on 76 with Doomlord's advanced stock kernel

I flashed doom kernel advanced stock to get the rooting and then I flashed stock kernel extracted from the ftf.
Now I stay without recovery but no more freezing.

2.3.7, 6.0A3.67 ( stock generic phone ) yup mine freezes on some games, but I'm kinda hoping that ICS etc will fix that .. when did it start ?? A few weeks ago ... mmmm
It's completely stock haven't done anything to it.

I've had the same problems to be honest. From when I got this phone(first week of release in UK) until about 3 weeks back, I had no problems at all. But since then I've found it lags really bad on certain apps and a lot of the time it crashes so I have to do manual reboot.
Mine is on FW .67 with no custom roms and not rooted. But apparently the .75 update is available for UK generic now so hopefully, these problems will be solved.

I had the same problem a few weeks ago then i send my phone in sony service center. They have fully reinstalled the phone software and now the problem is gone. You can do the reinstalling by yourself, u just have to use flashtool and choose one of these ftf's http://www.xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Sony+(Ericsson)/SE+Xperia+S+(LT26i)/STOCK+ROMS
Updates and repairing from SEUS and PC Companion won't help. Fully reinstalling the software is the only option. You can stay calm because the problem is software, SONY are awared of it and i am sure the ICS will solve it. Enjoy your phone.
I assume by doing that by yourself you would be invalidating your warranty?

if it is Kaputt u take it to the shop and demand new unit!
remember to take receipt with yall.
Usually, if it is a bug or software related problem, they will only flush it and reinstall the program... normally, only hardware related problem is being replaced with new unit... but of course, it will still depend on the technician that is going to verify your problem... those technicians who wants easy job, will replace your unit regardless of your complaint...

@iainbp Are you still experiencing the same problem? Even though you said to me that even after updated to .75, your device was still the same. I updated 4 days ago and I'm having no problems with lag or freezing at all. Only lag I have seen was due to an app rather than the FW. So, as others have said, either send it to Sony so they can reinstall, or do the easier option and simply flash it

[Q] Random freezes after DLIB flash.

Hey there
Just installed the XEO-DLIB release.I've restored several apps with TB and got root again with CF-Root. Wiped completely after flashing. But from time to time I get annoying freezes.
Tried different SetCPU governors but none of them seem to improve this.
Some of the freezes need me to pull the battery in order to reboot.
Is there anyone who might have a solution on this?
If any further information is needed just let me know and I'll provide it
Kind regards
ch0ka
Im getying the same with omega newest vs.
I reverted to stock ics wiped cache dalvik factory reset the lot.
Every now and then the phone gets really slughish and i mean really sluggish ive actually just had to power off.
Also the stock browser. It doesnt seem to go back a page unless you click hard key 4 times. very annoying.

Suggest you guys to reflash with full wipe again.

You are not alone mate.
I couldn't resist waiting for the Official JB so I flashed Wanam JB ROM 3.7
I got 3 Touchwiz home error already which i read some where reported already + i've noticed while the phone charges the Led is so dim ? very strange. The Quadrant result shows my current JB Rom is slower than ICS ROM by big margins. not impressed by JB.

LED`s brightness is controlled through the light sensor. Thats why its dim. Get light over the phone and it will get brighter.

Same here random freezes I got so frustrated I am back on my best nand backup ICS.... and I swear to god i actually forgot how this phone felt, Now it is BUTTERY smooth even opening widgets and instanly scrolling hardly jerks... I have it clocked to 1704mhz and battery is great perfectly stable.. Every single game works without a problem. Nothing beats ICS still in my eyes, even with that extra ram on JB. ICS is still smoother on my phone right now. Untill JB becomes like this I aint going to use as a daily
well in one week I will be on I9305 now that JB is 100% better
Re flashed it and it has sorted lag and browser problems.
Is anyone having problems with 3g. I am nog able to get it working. Tried a couple of modems and nothing.
Im on omega v27.1

HELP! S3 touchscreen not responding.

Since yesterday I am facing this problem.
Last evening the touchscreen of my phone just stopped responding. It happened so: all of the sudden the touch wouldn't respond. Pressing the power button to switch of the screen for sleep mode was not happening. The last thing I had done was pull down the notification bar so that so it was stuck there. I pressed and held the power button to restart and it worked fine. After a few hours again it happened. Restarted again. Worked. But now everytime its happening. It stops responding. I restart then it works for 2-3 minutes and stops responding and again Ihave to restart and again it stops after a couple of minutes.
I tried going into recovery mode and download mode and it enter and it charges properly also.
Also, last night I switched the phone off and I left it on charge annotd today morning when I switched it on the problem is still there.
please help me out
My galaxy s3 is rooted and its running on stock rom 4.1.2 and siryah kernel.
Is it a hardware problem or software? What can be done?
Another thing just happened now. It stopped responding while I was watching a video on youtube. The screen didnt respond but the video was working and after a while the video stopped but the audio was still playing!

Its not 4.2 It's 4.1.2 Using the official one. And I have been using the siyah kernel for over a month now. Never seemed to cause a problem and never updated anything.
And no I didnt take out the battery. I just kept it switched off. Anyway I will do that too now.
R: HELP! S3 touchscreen not responding.
Okay....so you did nothing? Perhaps you're stressing the cpu/gpu too much and kernel does not totally support 4.2.x yet....try flashing perseus kernel also, it cant hurt...

Should I flash stock firmwire then try rooting it again and then flash the kernel?
The thing is I used to use my phone while on charge. A friend says the circuits must have gone haywire but this doesn't seems like a hardware problem.

If u use your phone while on charge that only harms the battery (it will make it last less...but it is inevitable anyways who dooesnt use phone whike on charge)...
What would be the very best option would be to factory reset through recovery (u have clockworkmod right?) (U can save apps with titanium backup) and flash a new rom and THEN a new kernel.
If you flash foxhound it comes with kernel already backed.
BUT before doing this (nobody likes to start off fresh) just try flashing another kernel first(or try and get an updated version of siyah kernel, maybe you got the s2 variant, which has a higher build version than the s3, making it look obsolete).
