Hi guys,
i dropped my S6 edge into the water. Now the home button doesn't work anymore, but the finger print sensor still work correctly.
Furthermore the phone doesn't recognise my sim card (tried with other sim card).
Can you guys tell me, which hardware parts i have to replace?
The home button, even with working finger print sensor? and? ...
Thanks in advance

Hey guys I have question.
My friend gave me his old G2 to fix and then give to someone who needs a phone.
The touchscreen functionality only works in the center of the screen and at the right bottom.
[Screen display is fine and no physical damage to the phone itself]
HTC told me they obviously don't do work on that old of a phone anymore but that I just need to buy a digitizer online, replace that and it should function properly.
MY ONLY QUESTION is... if it's the digitizer does that explain why the Home and Menu touch buttons don't work? [the back and search button do]
Thanks in advance.
hi there
I've got some strange issue with my lcd screen on my atrix. Everything is on this video(sorry for quality):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbMsmbblXLc
I don't know what to do- i don't have my warranty because of unlocked bootloader(in Poland they are very strict and surely they won't fix this on warranty.
So the issue is: when i touch near front camera/ front speaker the virtual finger appears. The second thing is that when i touch in showed area
there are 2 touches from one finger. It isn't a rom issue because it is on all roms i've tested.
If you have any idea what should i do please write it
Thanks in advance for any help
I'd say your digitizer is dying. Except unlike most others where a part of the digitizer stops registering touches, yours registers multiple touches. Either way, I believe buying and installing a new digitizer would fix this problem.
After a night which phone spent in home there is no additional touch in this line. Of course the issue with touching near camera didin't disappear.
Maybe it is because of very low temperatures in Poland nowadays and i think there can be some water inside of phone. But as you said
i'll think about changing digitizer
Hello guys,
While I was using, all of a sudden, the soft keys and and the lowest area of the touch screen is not taking any responses. The touch screen works fine in other areas. I tried enabling navigation keys on screen which comes at the bottom end and hence that didn't work. .The screen is responsive above that. phone never fell down. It was well protected.
Tried resetting, didnt work. Same issue is there even when I open TWRP. The navigation keys on twrp also will not work
What do You guys think? Is the keys dead?
Kindly help

That's a hardware fault. If you believe that it has not suffered any external damage, you may want to open it up & make sure the ribbon cable for digitizer is completely seated to the board.
Otherwise, you may need a new phone.
I'm sure there was no external damage. Well protected with case, Screen guards on, Never fallen from my hand. Not even a single scrach on phone
Will it work if I change the digitizer?
:crying: I have same problem too
I'm gonna try replacing the Digitizer.
Hello guys, let's start saying that I own an LG G5 se, only because LG couldn't repair my N5x and gave me that...
Until "yesterday", I was used to unlock with my phone by just pulling the phone from my pocket while touching the fingerprint sensor, so by the time necessary to reach "my view/eyes" it was ready to go! And this habit is a die hard!
Now with the G5 se it's a pain: for my understanding the fingerprint sensor needs to have the screen powered on in order to work, so it result in waiting time or "double tap" the sensor as I'm used to touch it while pulling out from the pants!
So.... Is there a way to prevent the touch sensor from "sleeping" so I can unlock faster my phone like my old beloved N5x?
maybe some adb command, an app, but nothing that involves root as it's not available

On my H850 G5 I place finger on reader and it unlocks, even when off. Maybe it's an issue on SE or settting?

Are you saying that if you have the phone in your pocket and you touch ( not push ) the fingerprint you have the haptic feedback and the phone is unlocked and turned on?
I'm not having this (wanted) behavior, and I'm starting to think that it could be a feature/design, OR it could be something related to deep sleep that somehow disables fingerprint scanner.
I have no clue..

The unlock will not work in your pocket as the fingerprint reader is disabled due to the proximity sensor. If I pull the phone out and slide finger onto reader it unlocks. Having the unlock work in pocket would not make sense.

Ok, so it's a feature not a bug, it has 1-2 sec of delay until the proximity recognize that is pulled out... It is simply different from my N5X.
Thank you for helping me to "debug" this problem!

Don't worry it about the post and discussion is interesting
Has anyone else had issue with the finger print sensor responsiveness, in particular with unlocking the phone. Sometimes it is super sensitive and I unlock the screen on accident and then sometimes its completely unresponsive and I have to unlock via PIN.
Usually after unlocking with PIN, finger print sensor works fine for unlocking.
I can confirm this behavior. XQ-BC52 with 61.0.A23.20

I've had the same problem with with older xperia 1, XZ and pretty much all the phones with fingerprint sensor.
when my finger are cold, when in the summer i'm a little sweaty, after eating something i have difficulty in unlocking phones. it's. a limit of fingerprint sensor.
also if for work you ruin a little your finger sometimes you have to register again a new fingerprint

Same here, also on the same model and firmware. But as opposed to @Evil_Sephiroth , I never had such issues on my older phones (Samsung Galaxy S7, Galaxy Note 9).
However, the fingerprint sensor seems to be a bit more consistent than how it was in September when I first got my Xperia 1 III. I hope they'll continue to improve it since it is still very inaccurate and frustrating.
Also, since the fingerprint sensor is always on, it would be nice if we could expand the status bar with a swipe on the fingerprint sensor. This was possible on my old Note 9 and it would be a nice feature on the Xperia 1 III since it's a really long phone.
