Hi all! I have a brand new LG Optimus One, but I think it has a problem. When I tap on the screen or write a message and tap on one letter, sometimes the screen respond 2-3 or more taps (want to write "word", but when i pres the "D" it goes "wordddd". Does anyone have the same problem or? Thanks a lot!
P.s. Sorry for my poor english
Same here..
I have the same problem too but i think it happens more often with gingerbread keyboard. The lg keyboard lags little more than default android keyboard. I think I'll stick with swype for now

Can it be something with the stock protection foil?
Or may be i must go to the shop and return it
I removed the foil and still has the issue. I haven't tried other keyboards. Using the default LG Keyboard.

I am with the default keyboard too. Its very annoying, when the vibration is ON and when i just touch a letter...it's vibrating for 2-3 seconds.. Today i will try to go to the mobile shop and i will write after my visiting there.
Same here, I believe this is normal behavior, you have to remember that this phone has an entry level touch screen, so you can't except much from it. There are other problems with the keyboards as well related to touch. For example, in the Gingerbread keyboard you can do proper multi-chorded inputs (aka pressing shift + a character to capitalize the character) because of the touch screen quality. Same for pinch to zoom problems.
Download a touch screen test app to see what's really going on and why some things just don't work the way you expect. If you want better touch screen response you should've bought a more expensive phone. I'm happy with my Optimus One since I knew that this is a budget phone and that you can't have high expectations. That said, and knowing how much I paid for it new and unlocked (180€) I'm quite impressed with it's quality.

I am happy with my phone too! But when other people say, that they have no problems, what must i think about? I am from Bulgaria and here 180$ are not little money
So i went to the market and i played with the sample... It has the same "problem" )) So now I think, that all of this is because of my big fingers and "don't know how to touch" This is my first touchscreen phone and may be this is why i woried about. So thanks all for the answers, now i am a bit more calm! Great wishes for the NEW YEAR to all! Bye!
No problems with original android keyboard same as with SmartKeyboard Pro
Try to change to a different type of keyboard first and change back maybe after about 2-3 mins.
same problem
Hello folks!!
I have the same ptoblem with my touchscreen but only when i plug the usb cable to charge ...any solution?
it happens because of the touch screen lag bug. there is too much cpu usage when the touch screen is tapped.
that is why when you try to type fast using lg or android keyboard you will experience such problems.
this problem is not there with swype since you don't have to tap on the keys to type.
there is a touch screen bug fix and that will solve the problem.
I wish optimus one didn't have so many problems.
Has anyone had an issue with the keyboard thinking that keys are being held down even though they are not? Not sure if this is an android issue but it had never happened when I ran Winmo on the phone.
Running latest kernel, ryannnathans sd setup and highlandsuns ril addition.
I will be typing along and suddenly get like 80 a's in a row with no way to stop it.
It may be the physical keyboard dying but I thought I would ask before I attack it with compressed air and a screwdriver.

Nothing physically wrong with the hardware, definitely an issue with our port. Not sure if anyone has nailed down the reason, but it seems to be if you're typing and some background process starts up, it can screw with the phone. I've also seen it where the keyboard appears to completely 'cut out' - nothing will be typed.
For both issues, sliding the kbd closed & reopening usually fixes it. This has fixed my issues 100% of the time when the kbd cuts out - however, it has not always resolved the repeat key bug...
I will try the keyboard slide. thanks.
I just had over 200 w's. LOL.
As long as I can stop it its tolerable.

Yep, I've seen it several times. It seems to happen when the CPU seems to be maxed out for whatever reason. My phone is usually sluggish and on screen buttons are slow to respond too when it's going on. I'm guessing the CPU is getting overloading and missing some of the hardware polling cycles. As a result it doesn't pick up the change in the button state and proceeds as if the button is still being held down. Aside from arrrghhh's suggestion of opening/closing the keyboard, pressing another key seems to interrupt the process (but it will happen again). For me, the main times I have run into the problem was when my phone was NOT overclocked. Certain apps (e.g. Super Manager) seemed to cause the issue more than others too.
Yeah, I have noticed that it only repeats a letter if I hold it. Now I only tap a letter a few times, for example if I want a few 2's I would push 2 a few times instead of holding it.
If it starts repeating what solves it for me is what arrrghhh said, slide the keyboard in and then back out.
I'm still not sure why this occurs though. Maybe the method it uses to emulate keyboard needs a bit of tuning
i believe the stuttering letter bug (hope this name will catch on ) is caused by something in the keyboard backlight commit as that is where is started. In gingerbread when you hold down a key it doesnt repeat it instead gives an option to use variations of that letter, because of this maybe in gingerebread this bug is not as annoying
iv used gingerbread but havnt taken any notice of wether i had the bug or not, its not as bad lately on the kernal i use but i will take not next time
That's an interesting observation, I thought the bug always existed but I can easily believe it has to do with the keyboard backlight. I was looking at that code the other day, it definitely looks suspicious.

It does *seem* like the bug was introduced around then. Not positive tho, wish there was a way of tracing/reproducing this issue.
Perhaps trying files from before backlight was added?
If I had the time to look back I would.... Maybe in the next few nights.
I always hit home and let the maelstrom of letters work itself out and then return to what i was doing (texting usually).

Also I have recently noticed that closing/opening the keyboard again seems to stop the progressing letters.
And when you open/close the keyboard the backlights go off then on. This is another observation which hints that the keyboard backlight commit is at fault. It also may be useful to note that when you shut the keyboard it doesn't stop the letters, it is upon re-opening when it stops.
This bug has always been worth putting up to have keyboard bl but it still would be nice to have someone clean ir up and see if they could remove the bug

We look forward to your patch!
I guess I'll save Jandyman the trouble. I've worked out the patches for userland keyboard and buttonlights. I also now have a kernel with the keyboard light stuff disabled. Will be testing on my phone for the next couple of days and see how it behaves. (So far so good, while entering this post...)

Awesome. I'm sure he'll appreciate that .
FYI, I was going to bug you about this - if the caps/FN and kbd hooks should be in userland anyways, perhaps that rewrite should begin...?
I'm not so sure about caps/fn. I don't think there are any userland hooks for them. Or, haven't found them yet.

Ok this isn't a huge problem but it does annoy me. When I type on the phone and.if i wanna go back to fix a typo or write something else it seems very difficult to get the cursor where i want it..on the og EVO u would just tap where I wanted to type or whatever..now it seems a lot more difficult..it brings up like a green icon that you slide ..its just like the icon when you cut and paste a word..funny though as i type this it isn't doing it as bad..the thing just bounces around and moves by itself..
One cool feature about the HTC hero was the trackball. I miss that!
if you use honeycomb (edit... Gingerbread) keyboard, you can slide the spacebar up to reveal directional arrows.
...nice upgrade from hero

Yes. Drove me nuts. I wasn't sure what the hell was doing it...I've been using the GB cursor thing for months now so it ain't me...my tablet and other phones all work normal. drove me up a goddamned wall cuz it always seemed to work fine for everything EXCEPT the actual place you need to put the damned thing...like it knew and was ****in' with me.

Also if you use swype you can bring up directional arrows by swyping from the swype key to the symbols key right next to each other as well so very quick

I'd prefer to not adapt to a design flaw. It worked perfectly fine before, I refuse to believe this is a "feature" so much as a bug as they say, one man's trash...
Yea I can't figure it out ..ill press where I want it to go and it will go there there just bounce somewhere else..it drives me nuts when typing..also I always hit the period instead of space but I guess that's my fault

Similar with Swiftkey X, you can enable arrows in the options, allowing for finer control of the cursor.
Honestly, though, the touch-based cursor control is always something that iOS has done better than Android, in my experience. Android gets close, but iOS moves the cursor very smoothly within words.
Phone details are in my signature. I reset the phone right out of the box as I always do when new phones or after doing a software upgrade.
I've noticed that marketplace isn't notifying me of app updates available.
When I buy something, it keeps says I have to buy over and over again and never lets me download the app even though I get the email confirmation from MS.
The on-screen keyboard, at the password screen or even when I go to start a text, there is a full 1 second delay or more in the first letter/number I push, always. Is this a defect in the touch screen or software?
My old WP7 had none of these issues.
Anyone else?

Take it back and get another one. At a store they should swap it right there and then. It could be software related like every phone at launch has issues or a serious hardware problem

Have you synced your device with the desktop Zune client yet? It might be worth a go before you finally swap it.

Yes so I could sync all my pics, video, etc.
I already have the device setup exactly how I want it, I'd hate to return it when there is no backup/restore option in Zune. Dang it.
If its a software issue we can rule out Factory Reset... and that Im aware of there hasn't been an RUU leak for 8112 for the titan2 so flashing it is impossible.
Was the issue present from the get go? Like the moment It was turned on before setting up anything?

After turning on my phone out of the box, I went straight and did a hard reset. So I noticed everything after that. Marketplace not notifying of app updates and the touchscreen keyboard issue yes. I only tried buying that app after reinstalling all the other apps I had bought for my previous WP so I can't say about that issue.
I think I will just hang onto the handset until the Tango update is released and hope that resolves the issues.
UPDATE: Looks like marketplace is now notifying me of app updates correctly now and the app purchase I made has no gone through. I guess something was maybe going on with MS's side of things. I'll just deal with the keyboard/dial pad delay thing and hope Tango fixes it, it's only delayed on the first character I enter when I start typing anyway.

A temporary fix is just to turn off the "key press" sound. Once sound is off, there is no delay. Same issues with the Focus S and my Titan 2.

Thank you, that worked! I wonder why some windows phone have this issue and some don't? Perhaps the quality & latency of the nand flash? I have noticed this phone is a little slower than my Arrive was.
I had the exact same keyboard / touch screen delay issue. Turning off the keybaord sound definitely seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks.
I had a Lumia 900 and trades it for the HTC Titan II because of the camera issues with the Lumia. The HTC is better in my opinion but the tap delay issue was a real pain and I did not experience it with the Lumia.
I'll give it a shot, too as I have the delay. I also swapped out my Lumia for a Titan 2 and very much prefer it.
I have exactly same issue on my titan II.
I used focus before titan II. But focus hadn't this issue.
I think it can be fixed but now I feel inconvenience a lot.

i too had the keyboard issue, but have mostly gotten used to it, but it would be nice to have it fixed while keeping the keyboard sound.
another issue im having is more hardware related- when i press lightly, on the edges of the screen, there is a "glow" around the area i press like on a pc when you touch the screen. i can also feel the screen around the edges bending slightly, like the screen is loose. anybody else have this?
i have never had this on anything else with a touchscreen- ive had 2 iphones, a samsung gs2 skyrocket, and an asus transformer prime

That is probably because of the unibody design they've opted for. This issue is much similar to what annoyingly cheap hardware feeling I get when I press hard on "Windows" softkey. You can feel the spring and at times it makes that cracking sound too. But from what I've read around, as time passes on with these unibody designs, the back case get lose and so does the front chasis. Probably that "glow" you are referring to is due to lose screen chasis?

no one else has this? because the phone is brand new and did this out of the box
I'm actually having this problem as well new right out of the box. But also its not only the keyboard sound but sound in games as well. When I play games its really glitchy as the game will pause for a split second when there is a long enough gap in sound.
I bought the phone new in box unopend off craigslist for my girlfriend so im not sure if I can get this warrantied. Additionally I tried flashing the stock rom like people have been suggesting but with no luck the issue is still present.
Its a shame that such a nice phone could have such a frustrating problem right out of the box. My first gen wp the HTC Arrive never had this issue. Yet I really haven't seen much online or a fix expect whatever has been said on this thread.
Can my girlfriend just simply activate the phone and take it to at&t and get it replaced without proof that she bought it at the store?

I found that if you turn off key press sounds and disable the sound enhance, the phone works much much better.
Im not too familiar with LG, havent owned a phone of theirs in years. Im just wondering, has their auto correction always been this bad? This is one of the worst phones ive used for auto correction, its not catching many of the mistakes at all. I switched to Gboard and it fixed the auto correction issue but then i lose all the dual screen festures of the LG keyboard.
Ive tried every setting trying to get it right and nothing works. After typing a whole paragraph out I have to go back and make many many manual corrections which is very time consuming. Any input would be very helpful, thank you.
Okay so I figured out what's going on. The autocorrect works, it prepared the word properly and will replace it with the corrected word, but only if you type slow, lol. If you type at full speed, it can't prepare the corrected word fast enough to get it ready before you hit the space bar. Lol what a joke. What a worthless keyboard it is. How can LG let something leave the factory like this? And if you do some reading it seems that every phone they've released since 2014 has had this issue. No wonder their sales are always in the tank.... Get it together LG
The absolutely amazing news is that Gboard was JUST UPDATED THIS MORNING!! And now fully supports the dual screen functionality of the device. So switch immediately and never look back if you get this phone.
Well Gboard doesn't work 100% right. The keyboard now works in the "wide view" mode, but it doesn't work when using dual screen. With dual screen, when you have the phone in landscape and attempt to type something on the top screen, the entire bottom screen becomes a keyboard, this is when using the LG keyboard. With Gboard it will open up a keyboard on the top screen, which is impossible to type on with your thumbs.
So sad.
