[Q] Unresponsive Touchscreen on Bottom area only (GingerDX v.10) - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Anyone experiencing unresponsive touch screen issue with GingerDX, this issue only occur in bottom area of display, such as "space button" "delete button" on virtual keyboard and all apps. I need to touch it many times to make it work.
GingerDX is my first ROM, hope someone can tell me how to fix it... According developer thread i have do this :
If you get unresponsive touchscreen, please wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, and reboot twice

and I have do it, but still no luck.
Thanks
Sorry my English bad
Kind Regard.

Try factory reset and installing again. It helps you too much

It's not just you - I get the same problem (hard to drag the notification bar back up, bottom row of keys is unresponsive on certain keyboards) - also using GingerDX
I did see the dev acknowledge the notification dragging issue as "a common problem with gingerbread roms" so I'm not sure what's going on.

Buttons Not Working

Hey guys, I've come across an annoying problem with my X10. While using the phone, the 3 main buttons and camera button (all of the buttons sharing the ribbon along the bottom of the LCD) will stop responding. At first I thought I had broken the connector or something, but after a restart the buttons respond again. This is happening more frequently and is pretty annoying, any ideas for a fix?
I'm using Trips 1.7 Miui rom and haven't tested with SE's rom

Maybe app related on that 1.7 ROM. Try stock ROM to see what happens.

I'd suggest the same thing.
But also clear your (Dalvik-) Cache, Data and everything.
Also, maybe it's kernel-related. What kernel+baseband are you using?
Think it might just be a dodgy connection, seems to be ok atm
Baseband is Trip's 67, kernel 2.6.29
Did you tried pressing the buttons??
they are not capacitive like HTC and LG...!!

Touch screen Re-calibration

To the people of Turl's and Jokersax' CM9.
I have a touchscreen re-calibration app, I just tested it out and it seems to be working perfect. Don't hold me to it, but i think this is a pretty good temporary fix.
I'd love feedback, i didn't code this but after a few searches i was able to realize this is a universal fix for touchscreens that have been acting up.
Special thanks to gojimi. At least i hope.
Can you link the source please.
Cheers!
Just a question, do we actually need touch calibration after flashing cm9? Cause AFAIK, when I tried the jokersax rom, the only problem I had was app incompatibility and APN errors...

I know what you mean, sometimes homework takes away most of my time too. But just use CM9 as your daily driver, and you'll be well informed on any issues that will occur.
This actually screwed up my touchscreen..anyway to uninstall?
Hi,
I have a software issue with my touchscreen :
1/ Got stock ROM, then CM7, then CM7-Neutrino-2.2 => screen was OK
2/ Installed CM9-Turl-v8 => an unresponsive horizontal line appeared, around 100px high
3/ Tried to come back to CM7, CM7-Neutrino, CM9-Joker-0.4 => bug still there
4/ Tried this calibration app, but couldn't click the button because it was under the unresponsive line, so turned the phone into landscape or upside-down to execute => bug still there
5/ Flashed PDS fix => bug still there, fear of a hardware issue
6/ Installed CM9-Joker-0.5 with awesome Installer => touch screen goes totally crazy (phantom-touches), BUT the line is finally responsive !! So, le wild idea appears
7/ Retried this calibration app, this time in the right way => SCREEN FINALLY OK !!!...
8/ ... For about 2 hours... Now my phone combines 2 issues : a new horizontal line is unresponsive (thinner than the old one), and crazy phantom-touches happen really often...
I was desperate, but now I know my problem is software, I see hope ! Am I the only one to have this problem ?
Thank you in advance

[Q] Photon CM9 Beta - Capacitive buttons (Menu, Home, Back, Search) not lighting up?!

I'm running the CM9 beta 0.2.0 by jokersax11 ([Ics] cm9 beta with camera CDMA/GSM/UMTS/HSDPA/WCDMA/roaming 2/22/12) and my capacitive touch buttons at the bottom of the screen*(Menu, Home, Back and Search) are not lighting up at all! I can't figure it out at all and I really need these buttons to light up, due to my recent switch from the LG Optimus S, and before that I had an AT&T HTC Inspire 4g (which have the home and menu buttons reversed). I use my phone alot at night and I desperately need to get this fixed! Is there something in the CM9 settings I'm overlooking? Or is there an app or mod that I could use to get control of them and get them working again? PLEASE HELP! I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE ANY ADVICE OR ANY INFO ON HOW TO GET THESE BUTTONS TO LIGHT UP AGAIN! This is really frustrating!

EDIT - Well that was fun. If you haven't figured it out, the link above goes to the other thread you started, with the same title, and the same body, in the same forum .... You should not create duplicate threads. For future reference best practice is create 1 thread and wait a minimum of 24 hours between bumps.
With that out of the way my actual advice is as follows, i dont believe the capacitive buttons are an issue with jokers CM build although i dont personally use it. This would indicate the answer lies in a) something you did b) something you didnt do c) something you installed
1. You can eliminate a and b without losing any info by going into your custom recovery and wiping cache and dalvik cache then doing a dirty flash on the rom (dirty flash = don't wipe data/factory). In this case there would be no reason to reflash gapps.
2. If that doesn't work, do a full wipe (data factory/system/dalvik) and reflash the ROM, then gapps. Be slow to in stall your apps and test the capicitive buttons frequently to ensure you haven't done anything to break them
Set the phone's brightness to Automatic.. Fixed..
People are so over dramatic sometimes lol.

Thanks, that pointed me in the right direction. My auto brightness isn't working. I'm gonna do a "dirty flash" and see if that helps. Oh and btw,the second post was an accident and you can't delete your own thread.So, sorry about that.

Please come back and update the thread on if it works or not. Others may experience the same issue in the future and this thread could assist them.
Cheers!
i just now notices mine dont light up but o well my thumb pretty much know ware to push
Well, it's fixed. Don't know what the heck was going on but reflashed my CM9 & Google apps and voila my automatic brightness switch in settings started working again. No more problems and capacitive buttons work fine. Strange but at least it's fixed

And sorry to anyone that needed a fix to this. I was involved in the tornado that hit Branson, Missouri and was unable to keep phone charged due to the power outage that lasted over a week, and had bigger things to worry about at the time, like getting shelter and food. But everything is ok now and hope this thread helps anyone that has this problem. Check to see if your automtic brightness switch is working under settings (mine wasn't working) So if it isn't working just reboot into recovery, wipe dalvik cache & /cache, and reflash your rom and gapps, then check in your settings to see if your automatic brightness is now working. If so your problem should be fixed and your capcitive buttons should now light up. It worked for me, hopefully it will work for you.

[MiniCM7Pro v21] Problem with symbols on default text imput

Hi
Another problem... again... android... always some problem with it.
When i press "sym-au" key on phisical keyboard and scroll all the way down it freezes and stays there. It is possible to disable it, but it wont move, or clicking in any symbol has no effect completely unresponsive.
On virtual keyboard the same... blocking and unblocking device helps also restart. But its frustrating to remember about it. Is it any solution ? On stock rom there was no such problem.

Scroll the last part slowly (scroll it with your finger, don't fling it), it will stay responsive, if it does freeze, doing a rotation from landscape to portrait will make it respond again.

NO, that ROM won't get any updates anymore, and the issue is present on just about all roms, apart from the original stock firmware. If it was easy to fix someone would have done that already, i guess, so i won't hold my breath.
Just think of it whenever you need something that's near the bottom, it's not that hard to live with.

Not quite random reboot

I notice that the double click of the power button still opens the camera in nougat and now there doesn't seem to be a way to switch it off. I've accidentally triggered this twice, hit home to close camera, then pressed the power button to switch off. Soon after on both occasions the phone has partially rebooted in my pocket, sticking on the Wiley fox boot logo.
Anybody else confirm this behaviour? Not something you do everyday I guess......
Hi Ratbags, I tried it for you... I never noticed that tapping the power button twice starts the camera, but indeed it does; however my phone didn't reboot (so it also didn't get stuck).
Hallo ratbags, i can confirm this behaviour in my Swift 2 Plus with Nougat Android. Noticed that randoms reboots some while ago and with your hint about power double click i am able to reproduce it.
To switch it off
Go to parameters
Use the search option and search gestures
Click on Gestures and then you'll find the option you are looking for

Thanks for that. I believe Wiley fox are bringing out an update to fix this issue. Strange you can only get to that setting by searching or is it hidden away somewhere deep in a settings submenu?

I didn't find it anywhere else so I think it's hidden
There's others hidden menu (and some are not even working at all - like battery percentage). I think that it's the trace of some modifications of parameters that weren't done correctly, or those parameters were disabled because the option didn't work well.
With latest update Build no. TOS118C the Gestures are available in Options Menu. The "not quite random reboot" seems to befixed too. Tested it several times and got no reboot since 3 hours.
Was just scanning the forum for any reports of random reboots as I've also been having reboots and it hanging on the white WileyFox logo screen.
Have noticed it more since the more recent official updates and have even gone so far as a full factory reset, however, I've had the issue reoccur several times since then (reset done earlier in week) so will be interesting to see if disabling that camera gesture will help
Beyond that I'm thinking possibly a corrupt or "worn" SD Card as I have a MicroSD card, used to extend the internal storage, that I think I used for a year or so in my previously Swift so possibly suffering some mild wear....
