Lollipop touchscreen problems - Verizon LG G3

Does anybody know of a ROM where you don't have to do the five finger touch for an unresponsive screen?

What is the five finger touch thing you are talking about? i have run most of the lollipop roms and have not had an issue with the touchscreen being unresponsive. right now I am running the official cm12 nightlies with the aosp 777 kernel.

I have tried several and they all will become unresponsive. I read somewhere to touch the screen with 5 fingers and it unlocks the screen.

Its not just you. Ive had the same thing on AOSP based ROMs on two different G3s. You basically have to overload the touch sensor to make it begin responding. It hangs most frequently with calls.
I haven't seen it on CM12.

Hey you're not the only one. This happens with everybody. I don't know if anyone fixed it or not. I had to bump this topic because it happens on every single rom besides stock.

Anyone ever figure out how to fix this problem?

Nope was about to post about it

Hello,
I had this problem for months on each and every ROM I tried. 2 times out of 3, I had to remove the battery to restore the touchscreen.
However, I've read this five fingers touch trick about a week ago, and it changes everything : that WORKS !
Though it is not a true definitive solution, this workaround stopped me to ditch my phone for an iPhone... (naaahhhh )

I am glad it works. I am still on rooted stock KitKat, with the last Skydragon 4 kernel, so I have never had this problem.

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

Apparently its a known issue with the update. Here's a thread with people facing the problem...probably you can find a solution from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23045268

When I got that update back in February, my issue was that it would "cycle" both WiFi and cellular data connections every 5-10 minutes whenever WiFi was enabled - whether connected to an AP or not.
I tried to get help from AT&T and Motorola but they were both useless.
My solution was to unlock the bootloader and install CM7. I haven't looked back since!
Is the biometric scanner working in that, is it a stable rom

As pre4speed already said, yes and yes. I'll just add that those were 2 of my concerns before making the move. But I've been tickled with the new rom.
Now I'm just pondering when I should start trying out CM9.

I've been playing with the different variants of cm9 and the biggest thing holding me back has been the video camera recording and finger unlock. Well I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580449 last night and it has a video recorder you can choose in aroma! All without the use of official moto drivers. Our developers are so awesome, we may just have the finer unlock before official release. Its worth trying to see which flavor ics you like.

I'm afraid I can't move until the fingerprint scanner works. It's the only sure fire way to keep the kids off my phone!

Laggy after a while....

After use for a while....the screen gets real unresponsive. To the point where if I try to scroll down on FB...it will actually register a click instead of a swipe and open up the picture I happen to swipe over.....anyone else???

This only happens to me when I'm trying to use my phone while it is plugged in and charging. It acts all crazy, but once I unplug it the thing works fine. I pretty much keep my phone in ECO mode and haven't switched that off to see if it makes a difference.
Same here. I keep my phone on ECO mode and have no issues with responsiveness, except for once in a while when it's plugged in and charging.

That's horse ****! Someone has to come up with a fix for this! Doesn't eco mode cap the processors at 1.1 or something?

Seems cycling the screen off and back on will get rid of the lag....until it happens again....lol

I DO have that problem with mine. I am unlocked, rooted and running nottach's Base ROM the problem has reoccurred with the stock ROM and versions 0.5, 0.6.5 and 0.7.3 .
It's probably a kernel-level memory or CPU issue because for most people it appears to be a specifically time-based problem. The longer your uptime is, the worse the problem gets. Reboot your phone and the problem goes away for awhile.

Amrando, inflammatory and unhelpful statements aren't going to win you any help with your problems. It's just alienating those that would otherwise help you out and gets you reported to the mods.

I've edited your post. This is a great example of the same phone, running a similar set up behaving completely different. The user you quoted wasn't doing anything other than stating that they don't have this problem so chill out a little and accept that each person can have a different experience and opinion. If you've got nothing useful to say, say nothing.

There's lots of GPS fixes for every ROM, I had the same problems you did, used google, got it working. You can search the individual threads as well. There's so many different fixes for everybody you got to try them out and see what works for you.

You really shouldn't be having any problems on CleanROM it's very very similar to stock. Whatever ROM you're on, you should post your problems in that thread plus search that thread. It's the only way you'll get somebody that can actually help you.

In my experience, clean rom always fixes issues I have. If a vzw version of clean rom doesn't properly work on your phone, you might have a faulty device. Because that guy's roms are money.

I have no issues with any Verizon based roms such as Clean or Beans, but any ported or intnl rom I cannot get the GPS to come on or get a fix. I have tried every fix that I can find applicable to Note 2 and even some s3 on every forum that has come up in searches. Would love to use Novella, but still looking for a fix that will make this dang Verizon Note 2 work. Tried different firmware/basebands, replacing or adding the proper libs, getting a fix on a different rom then flashing, GPS fix trick with restore, still no dice. I am still looking for something that will work. Even tried the "press upper right corner thing" and tighten screws. And combinations of all those things. I know its not a GPS problem with hardware as it works on every Verizon based rom. Good luck...I am still looking.

Hmm I got nothing then. International roms don't like my phone, but If I have a lock on a Verizon rom before flashing I always get a lock on international based roms thereafter.

I have the same problem with the latest Jedi X17, I can get a lock before the flash, boot into recovery, do my wipes and flash only to have an AWESOME rom without the 1 capability i use most with my device. The Rom has a GPS quick-fix, that doesn't work for my device, and I've tried several from the market. It's infuriating...
Gonna try clean rom again in the next day or 2. Question when installing rom people say to wait 10 mins then reboot.do you let it sit right after flasing or after you put in Google acount etc?

let it sit for a minute or two after youve gone through the aroma installer. and it gives the green button to reboot. no need to wait ten mins but i have locked my phone up a few times flying through install and rebooting right away. if it happens though just pull your battery and pop it right back in and itll boot back to recovery. then i always flash again

Screen dead spot /lockscreen lag?

Hey all.
Since getting my s3 I noticed that when I go to unlock it the screen is unresponsive for a few seconds then responds to touches. Also when I type x or c in the keyboard it doesnt work. Then the touch stops responding for a few seconds then it all works. Is this related to sds?

it was on stock telstra rom when i got it. ive been on numerous custom roms since then and its happened on all of them except when i used siyah kernel and enabled s2w. so i think it may be a hardware issue?
