Xperia p big problem with home button. - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

My xperia p home button is getting pressed backwards as well. Like if I rest my finger at the back of the home button then it gives feedback wtf? The home button works fine from the front as well. :S
There is no such problem with the back and menu key. What has gone wrong is it a hardware problem? Has anyone else experienced?
The xperia p is just over a month old and this problem only happened recently.

No problems here.

Actually seems like it can happen with any button. Just rub your finger at the back of the transparent strip and eventually a touch will be registered. I have a feeling this is not a hardware flaw but merely a ridiculous design flaw from Sony.
Can I please have more people who can try this? Maybe this was the way it is from the beginning and I just didn't notice it before as this phone hasn't been used much.

With me the phone get crazy only when i plug in the charger,
And It's really like Sony's floating touch. :d

I've had a similar problem, exept it wasn't similar at all. I had haptic feedback enabled on the softkeys, but when I pressed a key, it vibrated twice. Doesn't happen in cyanogenmod, though. Sorry if I'm offtopic or something like that, I just feel like typing something (and raising my postcount so that I could post in the development forums).

Interesting.
Anyways it also seems like it happens if you force pressure at the bottom of the phone. I am really let down by this seems like a horrible oversight by sony.

I had this problem, but reboot helped(press and hold both the volume up key and the power key for few seconds).

I have this problem from the beginning. In my phone back button is creqzy. Even if I try not to touch anything, it goes back. When I browse web sometimes it immediately presses 5 times, so im 5 pages back. Its getting worse when phone is warm. Never going to buy sony anymore.

I had to make an account just to reply to this when I was finding solutions on google. A bit late, but yes, i'm having the same problem too. I've only had it for a month as well and i'm starting to get really frustrated. The buttons on the transparent bar automatically 'responses' to itself. Don't know what's the problem. I can't lay my hand or hold it on the back of it either. It gets all 'spazzed' up.

Ya it does seem like a general problem with the xperia P, maybe some devices are more sensitive and some arent. I have just decided to live with it.

If there is no known solution, and you've already decided to live with it, why not buy a case for your xperia p? one that covers the back of the soft buttons. Without being able to touch it from the back, you won't have the problem again, and even forget about it.

I have just been careful these days and it doesnt always trigger the buttons from the back, its just very random. If the problem becomes impossible to live with then yes a cover is the solution.

Been with this phone for a couple of months and its still working fine...

"I am facing the same issue from the last 2 days, phone is just 2 weeks old(Brand new). Sometimes apps work fine, at time all of a sudden goes to home screen or all app open up as in I am continuously pressing Home button. What is the resolution for this? Can someone assist?"

I have two Xperia P (mine and my wife's). My wife has no problems with the phone. I have two months of use there was a problem with the key "Menu" (which is triggered randomly.) But I noticed that if you turn your phone off for a few days, the problem disappears temporarily. Maybe it's a hardware problem with overheating phone? (Sorry for my English, I used google translate )

Guys, I blocked "Menu" key and remap the "Focus" (short press on the "Camera") to the menu. So the problem is solved for me.

how did you remap it?
Because I have the same problemm since today.
Everything I tried results into nothing.
I just can't use the home button anymore.
That's really driving me crazy :silly:

Some people have problems with them, i however dont.
It seems like some countries are getting different quality phones, i have yet to hear a german mini pro owner complain about the hardware buttons or the touchscreen.
Indians or east-euro countries seem to be the most affected

come one maybe 1 or 2% of the phones has the problem. is your luck that bad?
My Active was activating back (or home) and menu like crazy yesterday. Every app closed really quick, and back at the home screen the menu (add, wallpaper, theme, settings) kept rapidly opening and closing. Turning the phone off and on helped, but I suppose it will come back later.
The situation: about 30-40 minutes outside in 5-6 degrees C in my jeans pocket, then 5-15 minutes inside a cafe before it started acting up. I was trying to take a picture with the stock camera app when I noticed the problem.
Seems like the mini pro doesnt have any of those probems *knocks on wood*

I saw in KA sony rom thread you also have this problem. Thanks for making this as separate thread to discuss this issue and find solution to this.
I was searching online and I found many have such problem and have all random solutions to it. like - offline charging the phone, landscape rotation toggle, headphone jack, press bottom of the phone hard etc etc but nothing worked for me
check out these links problem is discussed here but no sure shot solution.

I still have that problem, but only when my phone is charging... Whn I touch the screen it would jst randomly touch anywhere! I used the show touches option in developer settings in ICS and everytime I touched it.. It showed the random touches too .. But all this only happens when my phone is charging.

yes, this mean's your phone touch panel is going to die. I also have the same problem, when i connect my phone on charger touch works randomly, when i removed it comes normal. This because i remember i used a duplicate charger and also tried different data cable which is same like SONY cable. So i feel this is main reason my touch panel gone and it is now on service center .
So if you do these all, please stop doing it. And use always SONY's Charger and Data cable to save your mobile from "TOUCH PANEL ISSUE".

My phone was with them for almost a month... Later while recieving the phone I noticed my phones front panel was damaged(the lower right of the front panel had broken paint) and the display electronic strip which should be covered was left exposed.. So they kept my fone for like 2months more.. No jokes! Contacted them every alternate day.. They always had the same answer.."we have ordered the parts.. It should be dispatched in a day or two" Thn finally I got my phone back with the front panel replaced.. But the strip was still exposed! I dint want my phone to stay there a month or two more.. So I let it be how it is! IMO I chose the wrong service center... There wer also others who complaining about their service... So now my phone has the touchscreen issue and a bit of the display electronic strip exposed inside the battery cover. Gave them my phone for an issue they gave me back with two!

(Solved) Xperia U power button problem

So, as the title says hardware problem and there are few things I want to know about. Have anyone got the problem about power button position on the inside is lower than the volume buttons? My bro and me got the same XU and never have problem except this one. My Xperia U has the lowest power button than my brother. If that's my phone's factory fault, can I repair it by disassemble it and settling the buttons back? I got no problem but I have to press hard for power button and there are no pressable home button to wake my device up. My problem is normal or not? Please answer me dear bros. Thanks.

If you have a guarantee, I'd recommend you take it to the store since its a factory problem. If you don't have a guarantee, there's some apps which let you use the volume buttons to turn the screen on. I don't know the names since I've never used one but I've seen it in here so you can use the search bar to look for them

They told me to wait for changing my handset dear bro. I'm waiting. Everything's went so bad. They told me that it wouldn't gets so wrong. But it's definitely sure that I have very stupid power button. You're right bro. I should have brought my brother handset, too. Now I'm in anxiety because it's only one week old. Now, I press so hard the power button and it annoys me. Anyway, I thank you so much for helping me out. Now I'll have to wait for answer.

[Q] Flex and ghost/phantom touches

I just bought a SGP311 (US Wifi 32G). When researching what tablet to buy, I did see some reference to phantom screen touches when flexing the screen, but I think the video said it was cleared up by firmware updates.
Mine is running .370, which I understand to be the newest available for the SGP311 (25 Aug 2013).
I find the phantom touches so sensitive and terrible that I can't believe there is not more stink about this on the internet. For example, if I'm holding the tablet with two hands and reach away with one hand, the resulting pressure from holding the tablet with the other hand causes touches all over the screen, wreaking havoc on whatever I'm doing. It even happens if I push "too hard" e.g. when playing a game excitedly.
Do I have a particularly bad unit for this? Is there a way to fix or mitigate this?
As it is, I don't think I can keep it - it's just too frustrating to use. If I hold it lightly and with two hands it's fine, but anything else - there's a high probability of touches all over the screen, especially in the Back button area
Mine doesn't do it. Or I'm not holding it "incorrectly"
Can you link to/upload a video showing this behaviour? You may want to turn on developer options->show touches to get an idea of what touches the device sees.
I have the same problem as the original poster...
Bought mine today and was messing around with it. Then I noticed the tablet 'doing stuff on its own'. After a quick test I realised I could reproduce the error by holding it in landscape and twisting it slightly. This resulted in either the back button being activated (lower left corner activated / pushed) or the settings notification area popping up (lower right corner activated).
So I guess they should have used a stiffer material as the back cover. But then again it seems almost inconceivable that the testers wouldn't have encountered this issue, if it was universal... so I'm guessing that our units are faulty - sonofabitch!
At the same time its my very unqualified guess that it isn't something which can be fixed by new firmware.
Edit: Just thought of something ... perhaps thats why the UI of the new firmware has changed? No more 'buttons' in the lower corners (as far as Im aware).

I had these same issues with mine when i got it but the update did actually fix mine so its possible that, if you are on the 370 update, that yours is extra sensitive. I have done quite a few flex tests to try to make it happen again and just can't get it to repeat after the update.
I would contact either the place you bought it from if it is within the return/exchange policy or Sony and exchange it.

Im using 10.1.C.0.370 - tablet came with that installed.
For once I actually bought electronics in a physical store (5mins walk away) so I'll go there and get them to replace it - and also test their demo model.
The demo model had the same issues. It also seems the issue is quite widespread judging by the Xperia tablet Z support forum.
The same happens un my LTE 16Gb .244 black versión...
It happens ramdomly, above allí while attached to Power stock charger, but not always...
If Sony doesn't want us to unlock bootloaders and install other ROMs tan stock, why they release such a crappy firmware?
It also happens in my c6603 sometimes un the same conditions as my Tablet, so i think is firmware related
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
So that's what's happening
I am having the exact same issue, in fact I didn't realize it was the flexing that was causing the issue until I read this thread. Now I can reproduce it consistently. I am so bummed, I LOVE this tablet, Sony has a lot of great stuff they put into this tablet and the form factor is amazing. I am pretty disappointed though because this makes it pretty hard to use. I checked and I am running the latest firmware. For what they charge for this thing you would think it would be a better piece of hardware. Back to Best Buy I go I supposed.

Mine is doing it right now! And I'm not even holding it, it's Sat in its dock. Mostly on the right hand side of the screen and bottom right corner (in landscape mode)..kk
That capital S of sat, and the ..kk above was done by these ghost touches.

Spanish unbranded FW... Seems that the problem concentrates on navigation bar, but not only... I have the visible touches enabled on developer section of settings, and can see the ghosts...

Its really noticeable on 4.1.2 and 4.2.2?
It seems to be main reason to not buy this. ;/
My brand new Tablet Z running 4.2.2 is acting out aswell. When in portrait mode, it seems obsessed with ghost tapping home or return...
Edit: Turned screen "logging" on. Dammit, the screen goes haywire at just the tiniest bit of flexing - even when NOT flexing... Sigh.
I've gone back to the correct fw for mine and it's settled down a bit, it still does it now and then, but nowhere near as much as it used to.

I got my XTZ and it works just great! No ghost /phantom touches at all using stock 4.1.2 even when i move harder the tablet. I think everyone who experienced this should replace tablet with new.

True
Actually got my Tablet Z replaced at the Sony dealer, no questions asked. (Kudos for service!) For some reason the new tablet seems to be doing much better than the "old" one.
I got 5 of these in for our staff - 2 of them have the same issue.
Phantom button pressing happens when not even touching them! Going to try and swap these over..

Xperia Z2 Tapping "rattle"

Hello guys...
Basically when I tap near the top right of my Z2 back/or front screen and also the bottom left, I hear a slight "rattle" or click noise, coming from the camera area....
Ive searched around about this and a lot of phones apparently do this, it has to do with the autofocus/camera/lens mechanism? I would just like to know if any of you experience this on a Z2
Thank you for your time
This is actuauly things in the phone not being screwed in place
My problem is simular however all the buttons on the side of the phone are sunk into the phone and loose
The only way to fix is to send to sony service centre or repair your self

Apparently what I am experiencing is the camera inside, while its moving up and down - part of the autofocus, and its present on all of the devices...
I dont think its worth sending it in if its that, just to get it back the same.. Thank you for your reply

You have to tap it firmly and harder than just a normal little tap on the upper part of the device back or front... Tap everywhere and you will notice different sounding areas. Maybe some batches have it and some not, so far quite a lot of people have said they have it.
