Hello!
My dad has a wileyfox swift 2x and he recently stumpled upon a problem.
His home and recent navigation buttons do not work anymore (the middle and right button of the three buttons in the bottom of the display).
When tried rebooting the phone, at the secure start pattern an error message is displayed with 'Telefoon is gestopt'. This is dutch for 'Phone stopped'.
The android version he is running is android 8.1.
The problem appeared yesterday or the day before yesterday. (22 or 23th of December).
Hope someone can help!
Chris
I had the same problem. Do a factory reset.

After installing VEGAn gingerbread on my brand new gTablet, when I press my gTablet home button I get the clock app, not the home screen. It also boots into the clock app, not the lock screen. Help!
I have seen other mentions of this in the xda forums, but no solution. Anyone have any help?
Thanks!
New information. I reset everything and started over. This time I installed another clock before rebooting the first time. Now, after I reboot and swipe the lock screen open, I am asked how to complete that action, using Clock or Alarm Clock Plus.
If I use the back arrow to get out of that, the Home button takes me to the Home screen for that session. If I reboot, then I get the "how to complete this, Clock/Alarm Clock Plus" option again the first time.
So, it seems that it wants to launch a clock. How do I stop it from wanting to launch the clock then?
Thank you!
This seems to be an existing problem, which has been discussed here, but I don't see a solution.
It is mentioned a bunch of times in this long thread for the release of VEGAn b5.1.1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-884103.html
(search for "clock " (with a space after it))
In that thread, gojimi thought it might be related to a specific run of the devices, but there didn't seem to be a resolution.
Here are a couple other posts which mention this problem, but not a solution:

Others have reported it for Cyanogen. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
I am also experiencing this problem on Bottle of Smoke and also had it on Vega-Tab gingerbread. Even pressing soft home button goes to clock.
Also I am pretty sure that in both cases it was fine after the loading the Rom and only started after rebooting for the first or second time.
Has anybody found a solution to this rather annoying problem?
Update :-
Also on Flashback v 4.0 through to current... Definitely only starts after 1st reboot after installing rom.
Is everyone experiencing this problem or is it only some units as rumoured?
Am facing same problem on Honeycomb on my gTablet. Not sure how to reset the default for home button!
It's really unusable after this starts as we have to press Back button several times to reach the screen where we can select the apps
I've seen this on just about every ROM I've used.. Gingerbread and Honeycomb. It's real annoying.. I had having to press back a bunch of times just to get back.. UGH.
Quick reply - I've posted this elsewhere in other threads, but the problem is actually a misfiring dock indicator pin. The G Tablet thinks its docked and initiates docked behavior, of showing the clock when the home button is pressed. The solution is an app called Dock Nothingness from the Market! Thought this might help some people.
I got similar problem and brought my Galaxy W to Samsung. They said that my phone got screwed up due to wet 'usb' connector. Cleaning those pins also removed the occational fail to charge problems.
I rooted my GTablet quiet awhile ago and use Launcher Pro as my default launcher. While I have used this for many weeks now, I have never had even the smallest problem. I am rooted on the GTablet with: VEGAn 5.1.1
Yesterday I used my GTablet as I noramlly do, everything worked flawlessly. I shut it down normally and took it home. Once I got home I turned it on to use it again and it booted fine to the lock screen. I unlocked it and saw my normal notification bar across the top screen and then a series of pop-ups that stated that numerious progarms including my Launcher Pro has stopped unexpectedly. Since Launcher Pro is my default launcher, I didn't have the choice to try to load the stock launcher, Dohhhh!
This is the exact msg: The application *app name* (process android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. The Force Close button is also displayed. These msgs kept scrolling to the screen. The only way I could turn the GTablet off was to push and hold the pwr button until the machine shut down.
Anyone out there have any idea what has happened and what I must now do to correct this/these problem(s).
I have done no recent mods or have changed any settings. Everything worked fine until I turned it on at home. Worked fine all day in my office yesterday.
Thanks in advance....

Nandroid restore did the trick, no problems since.......
Hello. I'm a long time lurker, first time thread creater.
I have an Evo V from VM that's rooted, s-off, hboot 1.50 that was running CM10.1
Randomly it seems out of nowhere, the bottom strip stopped working. In other words I couldn't hit the calls button, the app drawer button, or the other 3 buttons on the homescreen. The hardware buttons still worked, and directly above the line of the homescreen dock worked. When in an app like greenify I couldn't hit the button to allow an app access, or in messaging I couldn't hit the text box to bring up the keyboard and start typing. When I went to do something that automatically brought the keyboard up I couldn't hit the spacebar, etc. At first I figured it was a hardware problem but now I'm not sure. This is because I enabled the dev option that shows you the input the phone is receiving. The little white dot came up exactly where I was touching, I just wasn't getting a response and I can't figure why. Tried the DU rom and the same thing. Tried the pacman rom and had the same problem. Yet the phone says that there is input there, things just aren't happening. This is further validated with the fact that when in 4ext, anything at the bottom of the screen where the dead zone would be, still works. Restored my CM backup when nothing else worked and for now the dead zone seems to be actually gone. But Idk how long that will last. Any ideas?
I'm guessing it's the pie controls getting in the way.
Go to settings>system>pie settings>trigger area>none
See if that fixes the problem.
Hey guys, would really appreciate some help with my S2 that has messed up for some reason since yesterday! I am on Neat Rom 4.4.2 build v4.9, and since yesterday the phone rebooted and somehow went to factory settings. I am not receiving any notifications for anything (calls, msgs, app notifications etc). The notification bar does not display anything either, and the "tiles" dont work when I click on them either. I have not made any changes and it all happened suddenly please help! Many many thanks.
Sorry also forgot to mention my home key is not working either, pressing it only turns on the screen, but it does not function as a home key, and double tapping it does not bring up recents. The same problem with menu and back keys to which I assigned functions such as kill app and search on long press are not working either. Also, my screen is not locking at all by pressing the power button/screen timeout/go to sleep tile.
Format system,data, cache,preload then reflash ROM and gapps. Reboot.
Thanks, I did a factory reset and that has solved the problems thankfully.
Hey all,
Just got my new OnePlusX and the first time I turned it on it prompted all the set up screens. I had to skip through them all because the keyboard would not stay open. It would open and then immediately minimize. Not a great start but no problem, I'll add my accounts and connect to wifi later.
Once I get into the 'home screen' I could see my status bar at the top but no icons and no way to access the app draw. I pressed the capacitive buttons and opened the notification slider which both worked and eventually got into the play store. From here I installed an app or two and got prompted to do a system update, which I did.
After the update I was hoping my launcher would work.. it didn't. The home screen is a black screen with the status bar at the top and no icons - the home button seems to do nothing when I'm in an app and press it.
I installed a third party launcher which worked - I now have a home screen and app draw. However, after opening an app, it crashes after a second or two (chompSMS does this as well as messenger, phone and contacts which are stock apps).
Does anyone have any information about this, what can I do here?
I know one option might be flashing a custom rom but being a brand new phone that should most definitely not be something I have to do to be able to call and message people..
Update: I ran a factory reset and all problems seemed to be resolved now. Not sure what was going on but I guess something happened that a reboot couldn't fix. I'll leave this post in case it helps others.
Have you done a factory reset after the system update??
