Poco F1 Touch unresponsive/Lag in PUBG/Keyboard lag [workaround/Fix]

Hi I was facing issues with
1. Flesky Keyboard emojis cannot be touched.
2. UI Freeze*
3. Pubg
a. Joystick won't respond while parachuting.
b. Lags when another player is approaching me.
c. Some buttons usually the accelerate vehicle or the eye stops working or misbehaves.
d. Freezes completely* in front of the enemy player.
e. Freezes completely* at random places for a period of time and get back after I lock the screen and get back in.
*The application runs fine but none of my touch input gets registered.
On POCO F1 running MIUI 10 Global Beta ROM 8.10.25.
What worked for me.
1. Turned off 3 finger screenshot.
2. Turned off full-screen gesture
3. Turned off one-handed mode
4. Switched to google keyboard and turned off glide typing and gestures.
5. Uninstalled all touchscreen tester, repair and calibrate apps.
6. Cleaned Junk and reboot.
Results
UI lag and keyboard issues fixed completely.
Pubg Freeze fixed
Using game booster for pubg no issues yet.
Very rarely it does stutter and I know its because I use multiple apps (Texting..) sometimes while on pubg so I use the game booster to free up ram and it works.
Hope these help someone else facing the same issue.
I guess its the gestures.
PS: This is my first thread Its not an in-depth fix, maybe a workaround but if it helps someone then why not.
Update: Switched to stable miui 10.1.3.0 via updater app after factory reset. (Flashed complete ROM)
All the touch issues are fixed for me (I believe for many others in beta 8.12.13 also have them fixed. As the number of post complaining touch has reduced a lot).
Dirty flashing or ota updates were the reason for screen freezing/touch unresponsive issue in my case.
If you face similar issues as above please factory reset and flash complete rom again and don't restore old apps.
This can be done via updater app alone. Root or bootloader unlocking is not required.
Disabling Gestures made Gboard much better, indeed. Looks like there's no problem at all. But c'mon, Xiaomi need to fix it. Infinite Screen is a must need on this smart.
I will try PUBG Mobile now.
EDIT
Same problem on PUBG. Aim often just jump when you touch the screen. But hell, the keyboard is fast now!
I will go back to Infinite Mode anyway, theres no way to use Pocophone without it.
Thanks for the reply sorry that it did not work for you.
And yes without gestures its not very handy.

Thanks man. After reboot and turned on Infinite Mode again, surprisingly Gboard is working much better now!!
I'm typing really fast even with Infinite Mode On!

Does 8.12.13 really fix the slow touch issues?

I've read it from the MIUI Forums. Does this version really fix the touch response? If so, how can you rate it?
Yeah, so no more touch delays, touch not registering, PUBG aiming bug, screen freezes, screen flickers, and this is coming from a user that faced these issues about 2 months.
Now they only need to fix those multi touches/ghost touches and it'll be perfect as it's still there
So I guess not all is experiencing the issues you mentioned? I had the edge back gesture not working well before and the flicker, but I never experienced any ghost touch or input lags.
not everyone got all issues.... i only got touch latency which is fixed 90% what i can see now..... but they need to fix it further to make its smoother......
but somehow aiming in PUBG in 8.12.13 doesn't feel smooth and snappy 8.12.7/8.12.10.
Now they just need to fix multi touch and ghost touch. This happens when I use 2 touches and swiped them so hard.
Ghost touches always happen below the notch area and the navigation bar area
Just got the open beta 8.12.13 OTA, following are the observation :-
1) Keyboard lag is minimized.
2) Scrolling near edges is improved but still buggy near bezels.
3) YouTube picture-in-picture mode doesn't work in full screen gesture mode in poco launcher home screen.
4) Screen flickering in lock screen is gone but further need to be tested.
4) Icon refresh is still there when minimizing any app.
5) Back gesture now works properly when any app folder on home screen is open.
6) Tuch delay of back button of navigation Bar is gone.
7) Touch sensitive of screen is bit improved.
8) Something flower like icon is added in left bottom of lockscreen.
9) Notification icon is same it was in previous beta.
so far no ghost touch on my poco 8.12.13 eu

Dam. Now, I've to flash back MeMeUI again to test it. I'm happy using LOS16. I'm sure I'll regret flashing MeMeUI cause of the crappy cartoonist UI but if that fix the issues, that's more important for me right now.

Merging firmware into the ROM can fix sometimes. You can wait a little the LOS genius devs to take advantage the newer firmware/vendor files.
No, they still haven't fixed the bottom area latency. It's the same as it was for a couple of weeks.
For me the touch has got worse. I didn't have any touch issues on all stable ROMs I ran till this first stable Pie/Oreo rom. I say first Pie/Oreo ROM as it's the first stable Pie ROM but still using lib library from Oreo. I'm noticing that I'm making more mistakes typing than I was before so I feel it's over sensitive now

The Poco team said it themselves that they couldn't fix the touch in the latest stable release yet so it's probably the same firmware as in the earlier builds. Shouldn't feel any different.

I don't believe them at all. As I said I wasn't suffering from any touch issues and this latest stable ROM has made my touch worse
For those who get worse in the update,make sure you do a clean wipe before flashing.
I found that after doing a clean update,my touch is better. (Not sure if it is really working but installing Magisk also kind of making my phone smoother)
But for sure the touch latency is improved.
For ghost touch,i test with multitouch tester,no more.but in pubg there is still ghost touch (my character shoot randomly when my thump near the shoot button). However,can fix by separate the buttons a bit far from each other.Then,reduce the in game camera about -5 to -10 for each categories.i found the game is more playable that way.My guess is that somehow the phone screen sensitivity is high.
For me, as a regular user, I can say that the touch is worse than 8.12.10.
When I say worse, I refer to the up / down scrolling through pages / facebook / etc.
Other than that, I don't seem to have any issues

MIUI 12.5.1 for Redmi 9 Prime... More Bugs than I Can Count

Hey, hope everyone is doing well,
So recently got the MIUI 12.5.1 as an OTA update and I was like, why not update? I immediately regretted it, the new version has way too many bugs.
Bugs and issues that I could find:
- Dark theme somehow got EVEN worse than last version. Messenger on dark theme is utterly broken: some messages white, others dark, others just completely vanish.
- Sharing a Discord image to Discord causes an infinite loop of sharing showing "Android System" (This whole personal/work sharing looks so stupid btw)
- Pop-up applications like Twitch can sometimes completely break and the only way to close them is to restart the device (My Twitch window got stuck on Force stop button so I couldn't even force stop it)
- Soft-key navigator buttons sometimes get stuck in their animation
I'll report if I get any more issues. I really don't recommend updating your Redmi 9 Prime.
Now I am thinking about either downgrading or just totally installing a new custom ROM (I'm kinda fed up with MIUI). Do you recommend I remain patient until they push a new update, downgrade, or install a custom ROM?
Thanks for your time reading
Same here,my solution was to wipe data in recovery!!Cheers!!!

Same here mate. Tried factory reset. Fixed some of emm. Bt still no hope. Planning to downgrade my redmi 9 prime to 12.0.1 or sumtin were i was happy using it.
Bluetooth auto reconnects while playback (checked my bt earphones with other brand device, working fine once paired), app auto closes, phone hangs sometimes even when no heavy task is on background or foreground, auto skips to the next video on youtube while watching and countless other issues.
Am happy to try custom roms bt cant find any stable rom. Sugest me if there is any. Thank you.
My list of bugs in latest update :
- phone vibrate continuosly when powering on.
- auto brightness automatically sets the phone to 100% brightness when finishing calls.
- sometimes vibrate doesn't work in navigation bar.
I think Xiaomi software team won't even bother fixing all these bugs. Will all these be fixed in custom roms?
Tried factory reset. Didn't do any good. Planning to downgrade miui version.
Kimdly check anti rollbacK ban and rollback index if u r planning to downgrade ur miui versiOn.
wierd.. i don't have issues with brightness or vibrating
some issues of mine..
mobile data going off ( related to power plan change ? )
at 7 am change power plan / screen going on shows lock screen 2sec
-today however..the screen was blanco black for 5 min
--i did a forced reboot..the boot animation changed..and home navigation bar now shows : ■ Home < ( before there where 3 icons )
"random number.muigalary" files on root of sdcard there are like 200+ files
note..i use netguard and don't allow any updating on mobile data sim
I'm in 12.5.0.1 RJCEUXM.
I've face BT disconnect issue.sometimes app from app drawer vanishes & come back after sometime.Battery backup is also terrible.
For me MIUI 11.0.9.0 QJCEUXM was the perfect version.I will go back to MIUI 11 ASAP.
my unit got updated to 12.5.3 yesterday...
Let's see.. what it brings
I don't know if this happens also on redmi 9 prime, because my redmi 9 after updating to 12.5.4 wifi sometimes there is no connection so I have to turn off and turn on wifi again and I agree with your opinion that Dark theme is getting worse, I hope xiaomi soon to fix this

Question Multitasking issue caused by changing orientation

Hi,
I have an issue with multitasking on my Pixel 6.
Steps to reprodruce it:
1. Open the app which support ladscape orrientation.
(for me working Spotify, Firefox)
2. Change the orientation to landscape and portrait few times.
3. In portrait position open multitasking.
4. Swith to another app.
5. Try to open multitasking.
6. At this moment you could see an issue with multitasking.
Here is my video:
Please could someone try it? I am on the last June update.
I send a feedback to Google.
Same here never saw that because I don't use auto-rotate
But on 5. step I need actually to try 4 times to open multitasking.
Confirm this issue on latest stock build 12.1.0 (SQ3A.220705.003, Jul 2022)
The issue is on all devices with Android 12 (Sony, OnePlus, Samsung).
I believed that problem is with auto rotation but after few hours with AR OFF issue come back.
Here is a thread about issue on Google site:

Question XQ-BC52 - Some issues

Hi All
I got the below Xperia 1 MK iii XQ-BC52 2nd hand
Os version: 12
Build: 61.1.A.11.88
Have few problems with it hope that you can help out:
1. Low battery life.
2. How to set the resolution to be always 1080p?
3. Green tint - any fix for this?
4. Low volume notifications although all Maxed out when selecting the notification tone, it sounds ok
but while getting notifications the sound is much much lower.
5. Charging speed is very slow although i disabled the adaptive charging.
6. How to enable VOLTE without rooting the phone - I'm in Israel and PCS (Pelephone Communication) saying that volte is enabled for my account on their end and that might be my phone's issue.
1. Seems to be an issue on stock since last update.
2. You're on 12 so it is always running in 1080p.
3. Turn off 120hz mode.
4. Dunno
5. Probably for the best.
6. VOLTE is supported only in few cases on 1 III. Or on custom roms.
I am on the XQ-BC62 Build 61.1.A.2.211 so some options may differ.
1. Low batter is going to differ from device to device. How apps use the device, wifi , 5G, ect. It's like having two identical cars with two different owners. One going to get more miles to the gallon. You can see what apps are running in the background by going to 'Developer Options' and look at "Running services' or use 'System Tracing' for finding apps that are problematic.
2. Shefczenko default is 1080, On my device I have the option, Settings , Display , Display size. I keep it at default, never messed with it.
3.High refresh rate is in Settings, Display, High refresh rate. Turning this on will increase battery consumption. You can go to Developer Options and click on 'Show refresh rate'. A overlay on screen will show rate.
Developer Options, Graphics driver preferences, set apps to use system or default.
