I got a new Nexus 9 after breaking my old Nexus 9, but it's almost impossible to long press things on the new device. When I long press an app icon to move it, it opens the app and make a few more taps inside the app without me even lifting my finger. And if I type on the keyboard, it registers multiple taps on the same letter.
My old Nexus 9 worked perfectly when it came to tapping and long pressing. Is there anything I can do to make the new work or is it just to return it for replacement? (I've tried factory reset a few times and installed all system updates). I don't use any screen protector.
When the device is changing the screen works perfectly, but when not connected to the charger, the screen doesn't work very good any more.

I have just noticed that when selecting apps and doing most actions that require a quick touch, there is about a half second delay. The keyboard works fine except when I press the space bar sometimes. The capacitive buttons on phone react instantly. I can press the app drawers then press any of the capacitive buttons before phone opens drawer. This tells me it's not the screen or my protector.
I didn't notice this until I tried to play flappybird and couldn't even get through the first pipe. I installed the sense 5 update a few days ago. I'm fully stock, no root , nothing.
Anyone else have the same problem? I've tried doing a hard reset/battery pull sim and still same results.
Hello all,i'm using a 16Gb N9 WiFi only version,i'm on 5.1.1 stock rooted,mainly for AdAway use...I've been experiencing wierd issues for the last week or so,when either double tapping the screen,which doesn't seem to work 100% as has been until now.
What's more, i'm using a Moko Flip Case and flipping the cover doesn't always work as well.These are not concerning by themselves but despite which way i try to use to turn on the screen (double tapping,opening the cover,pushing power button) when the screen turns on and i swipe to unlock then immediately the screen turns off ,no matter how many tries i try to swipe to unlock,it turns off thus making a need for rebooting mandatory....
Has anyone else experienced this? Should i factory reset the tablet or is there a fix,mainly for the last part..Thanks for taking the time to read this!
Workaround
It has been happening ever since upgrade to 5.1.1. Reboot fixes it but is annoyance. I tried wiping cache and factory reset, but the issue still persists. The easiest solution is to left swipe on the camera to open the camera app, then use the back button to come back to login screen. This time around the pattern will work.

Does the problem go away when you take off the flip case? If so, put it back on and see whether you can make the screen go black depending on how you fold the case behind the tablet. If it's one of those three-part covers, flip the case to the back, then flip the outer third over once more - does that turn off the screen? The screen turns off when the magnets on the case and on the N9 are aligned, and this can also happen with the case flipped to the back.

Indeed it does go away without the case, I do have one of these three part covers. It works fine when the cover is on the back but I left for a business trip and left the cover at home at the moment. I'll definitely try when I get back! Thanks for the info!!
Sorry I was busy and didn't have time to check xda... Thanks both for your answers!!
My wife is having this same problem with the Nexus 9 I got her for her birthday... I got it with the official keyboard case, but when the problem starts happening, it continues to happen even when the tablet is completely removed from and separated from the case. I also tried running the camera from the lockscreen, returning to the lockscreen, and trying to unlock the tablet without success. She is just using the slide to unlock screen without any security.
weird...lucky mine doesn't do this...or knock on wood, hasnt yet lol
i have double tap to wake up tablet option from eX kernel and i also use a passcode unlock screen and i also have a moko type magnetic case...everything is fine for me(so far...)
ot: what lockscreen app passcode app works so that when u enter 4digits u DON"T have to press the enter key to get in...i hate having to press the enter
in iOS iphone u just need to enter 1 2 3 4 <unlocks> goes to homescreen
stock android : enter 1 2 3 4 ENTER key then it unlocks
Today I got my phone in. I was on the first set up page and it wouldn't respond to any of my touches. The buttons would glow like I was touching them but it wouldn't type or input. I soft reset it. It worked when I used assist touch. I hard reset it, wiped cache and factory reset. It fixed and I installed all my apps and when I plugged it into the charger it stopped working again. I can open the camera by double pressing the home button to unlock my phone but i can't open anything. It will glow like I'm pressing it but it won't open. I can pull down my notifications bar but none of my toggles or setting icon will work, again, they will glow just not open. I came back to my room and randomly it was working again, after 5 mins it stopped again.
Thank you for your attention.

I don't know if this is the cause/solution to your problem, but I know S Voice can cause lag issues. By default, double pressing the home button (when device is unlocked) opens the S Voice. Frankly, it's redundant and pointless, as it's a mediocre attempt at Google Now. Open it, then go into the settings, and disable it. It causes lag because it's waiting to see if you're going to press it again or not.
But if that doesn't fix it, and it's doing that stuff before you've even set it up, I'd tend to think you've got a faulty unit. The capacitive buttons are part of the screen/digitizer, so maybe you've got a bum one.
Hello all,
my Stratos 2 (A1619) is about 5 days old. I downloaded the most recent official Firmware suggested by the smartphone app (2.3.4.0). Still everything was fine. After installing a lot of watchfaces I experienced problems similar to Youtube 4zQLNsVWvvc (sorry I am not allowed to post external links).
It was not only the screen jumping around but also touchscreen buttons seemed to be pressed repeatedly ("ghostpresses" - like one would press e.g. once a second on the middle of the screen).
I unbound the watch, rebound it, did a factory reset, bound it again. Another factory reset without restoring data and finally it came almost back to normal - except this problem:
If there is a button on the right lower part of the screen like e.g. the purple "nut" button for settings or the "Stop" button of the stopwatch it is extremely hard to hit. The buttons next to these on the right (e.g. "brightness" resp. "Lap/Reset)" are easy to hit.
The touchscreen in general seems to be O.K. because swiping works perfectly fine - even in the right lower corner. Only the buttons there are extremely hard to hit. Maybe one of twenty tries works.
Initially all buttons worked perfectly - so I don't think that it is a hardware problem.
Did someone experience similar problems resp. is there a solution like e.g.:
- increasing the sensitive "size" of the buttons
- recalibrate/reset the touchscreen
Maybe there is an algorithm, that automatically calibrates (learns) the buttons from the presses that got crazy during the "ghostpress" phase?
Probably it's a hardware problem, it's too new (the only other thing that would cause ghost presses are dirty screens, but I don't think it's the case), you should replace it under warranty as soon as possible.
I have a similar problem with my left corner touchscreen buttons.
Here is the result of my hardware secret menu for the lcd screen of stratos.

Have you had the same result?
Am I the only?
I own the Honor 10 64GB Blue from Europe/Italy.
I'm using the honor 10 for something like a month, and I've always had a strange issue with the soft navigation buttons, basically sometimes, not always, whenever I tap the back button, or the multitasking button, it is registered two times, and it is a lot frustrating.
Enabling the hardware vibration feedback, I can tell that is an hardware or software issue because it is too precise. So it is not like my finger slipped and tapped two times.
And I'm not the guy who is installing tons of bloatware apps, (I even deleted half of the preinstalled apps), i just have like facebook, instagram, messenger telegram and whatsapp installed. So maybe not a CPU issue.
So basically what I did was going back to the store, asked for a replacement, and after a week I got a brand new phone, and the same problem happened! So previously I got a Xiaomi Mi5 and never had an issue.
My use behavior consists to do things really fast. But I don't know that has something to do with that, I'm doing the same things I've did with other phones, I owned a Nexus 5 and 5x which also had soft navigation buttons and never had such issue in the past.
I don't know what to do honestly, since no one is having issues with their phone, I've just disabled the vibration feedback for the keyboard maybe is screwing the touch screen (????) I will test it anyway.
And I'm charging the phone with regular USB instead of the fast charge, obviously I've did a lot of hard resets. Now I'm trying to charge it only with the huawei charger
Latest firmware obv. I'm thinking of returning the phone again to get my money back. What a shame, it's a pretty good phone aside from that.
So here is a video attachment showing the exact problem, i just had to tap for something like a minute or two, I've did an hard reset yesterday, only Whatsapp, facebook and telegram are installed, no noticeable CPU load, juts mobile data on
Just look at the very first seconds of the video.
Can't check the video now, but this sounds exactly like the problem I've been having with my Honor 10. In ddition to this sometimes the letter a is not registered. I was going to get my digitizer replaced under warranty,but now I'm not sure if I should. I had this issue from day one.
Similar problem with the touch
It seams related to yours issue my problem. Completely random if I'm on 1 app it minimize, vibrating and the phone go to the home page. Even if I'm in the drawer but not in the home page it turn to the home page.
Is like I've touched the fingerprint sensor, even if I did not. Left at the honor/huawei repair center, back after 3 weeks they did a software upgrade. Now it happens rarely, but still happens.
You guys use some kind of glas screen protector? I had one for some time and had also issues like yours. Some letters werent recognized and also sometimes homescreen button got triggered.
Right now i m using a normal screen protector and all problems are gone.
Same issue here, since day one...
No Screen protector, tried to switch the back Button to the right - but it still exists
Same problem with Honor 9 lite
Using fluid navigation to deal with it , it's less annoying that way , i am Trying to find a workaround for this as well , if anyone know how to fix it.
Let us know in comment ?
Hi, I am too facing similar type of issue with my honor view 20. Please let me know if anyone has got the reason behind it. Thanks.
I never use the on screen button navigation on Honor 10. I was using the fingerprint sensor navigation, and now I'm using Fluid NG.
I don't think my digitizer is broken, since I don't have any issue.
Its all good and smooth.
I just got an Honor 10 Lite this week - I've got a different problem with the navigation buttons.
It's an intermittent problem but I'm sometimes pressing the back or home button half a dozen times before it actually goes home or goes back.
If there's a back button at the top left etc., it will immediately go back.
Enabled haptic feedback and the touch is definitely detected and when you touch the navigation button the screen indicated an circular patch where you touched but the problem remains.
Also tried using gestures, same thing....
Huawei customer service recommends a factory reset, anybody else have this problem?
Well I got a replacement phone, blue this time, instead of black.
For the first couple of days it appeared to be very responsive to touching the navigation buttons but now I'm getting the same requirement to do multiple taps!
