Anyone else experiencing ghost touches when typing too fast? When I tap too close to the previous tap it registers it as a swipe instead.

Using Fleksy, but I tested with Yet Another Multitouch Test and it registers close taps as swipes, don't think its a keyboard problem and I'm wondering whether its a software or hardware problem. If other users don't have I suspect its a hardware problem and I'll have to go claim my warranty...
Thanks!

If you do the software repair and its still there or reappears and your certain it's a bug go to Sony support forum and post on there pretty sure the Sony community managers name is Richard he'll forward it to the software peeps. They fixed the WiFi drain issue on the xa really fast with a update.

[Q] Call answers when clicking anywhere?

Is there any third party program or any way I can replace the call answer screen? Sometimes on my HTC One it will say slide up to answer, sometimes click to answer... when the click to answer screen shows and I click ANYWHERE except decline, it answers the call... Sometimes my phone will be ringing and I'll pick it up and it auto-answers. How do I fix this?
For anyone else having this problem I've narrowed it down to a setting: Security -> Phone notification preview.... Anyone else having this issue? Also, is there a 3rd party program for receiving calls?

I'm having the same problem with the stock launcher and CleanROM 2.0
VERY Annoying!

I think it might be a CleanROM bug... I have another ROM on there placed on top of CleanROM (probably should've wiped first ) and it's still having the issue. I use UltimateCallService or whatever it's called in the meantime so this doesn't happen...

[SOLVED] Lockscreen Issue with PAC ROM

Hi,
Hopefully I am writing in the correct place about my issue.
I have the Xperia Z2, rooted, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery.
I flashed the Unofficial PAC ROM by "rcstar6696" and it works fine with tons of features, my problem is that the phone would not lock securely.
I tried to use PIN, Pattern, Gesture locks and they all do not function, the phone will still unlock with slide.
I tried to reset the phone, same thing. I looked all over the forums and could not find anything about this with Z2.
My friend owns a Nexus 5 and I rooted and flashed PAC ROM onto his phone and the Pattern lock works like a charm.
Is anyone facing the same issue? Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks.
EDIT: I have flashed the latest version from 20th of September cleanly and still facing the same issue.
EDIT: after a few resets and wipes, I noticed that when installing/uninstalling apps. The lock chosen works for a limited time (Usually 6 hours) and then stops randomly.
I am still trying to identify if it's an app causing this.
EDIT: ISSUE SOLVED !!
I reset the device one more time with a clean boot, then while setting it up, I did not connect to my google account. I skipped most of the steps, then set the lock screen, rebooted, added my google account manually.
and VOILA ! phone securely locked.
I do not know how my google account caused this, but it seems to be the reason at the moment.
The port for Z2 may have some bugs so post your problem in the rom thread and the devloper may reply and explain

I've been using pac rom since its release, I have no issue setting any lockscreen security. Pattern, pin etc all work for me, it has to be either a setting or xposed module causing the issue

Xposed would cause it, or any mods or tweeaks because pac is framework sensitive which means even simple mods can cause huge issues

Yes of course, but I just flashed it cleanly and no apps whatsoever (except GApps & Stock) , and still the issue is the same.
I even did not change any of the ROM built-in settings and still, no secure locking.
Oh and trust me, PAC ROM is amazing (if it wasn't for this issue) , made me hate every minute I spent in CM and TouchWiz (on my old S4) :good:
Did you do a complete wipe? I wiped all partitions including media before installing pac.
And yes pac is excellent and perfectly stable, only issues I have is nav bar dpi seems to reset after every reboot, but if I toggle say screen timeout via quick settings it changed to what it should be and active display reboots my phone but I don't use it anyway

I'm not sure how to do that, however, I managed to solve it.
And I am facing the same with nav bar and the PACperformance app, it just doesn't stick after reboot.
EDIT: actually, I just tried a few reboots, the nav bar seems to be fine to me, I did however change the icons via "Android L Navigation Bar" found in the xposed downloads. Maybe that caused it to "stick"?
as for the active display, I would like to use it, but I am a pixel maniac, and that feature isn't FHD yet I guess, so I am not using it either for the moment.

[Q] Notifications turn on the screen

Is there a way to disable that?
Whenever I get a notification, the screen turns on.
It's not really ideal, as the screen will often register "activity" when I keep the phone in my pocket, sometimes leaving the screen on for hours before I realize it.
This really shouldn't happen. File a bug on launchpad.net/indicator-messages.

Fingerprint scanner bug after b330 update

Hi,
I just got the new update B330 at Today (this is the official ota, not the beta version). And now sometimes the fingerprint scanner doesn't work when i want to unlock the phone. Sometimes it is working, but... Somebody else recognised this problem? Any idea how to fix it?
For all my opinion is worth, I thought the fingerprint scanner was fast before but since I have upgraded to B330 today I have not had a problem with it. I would go as far to say its possibly a little quicker.

I had this problem on B180 - I deleted the fingerprint, and added it back in, and it was fine.

In this case probably the problem is in my device. By the way i sent an email to the official support with my bugriports and now i just hope the best.

Hey!
my problem with the fingerprint is cux its slow now when i was in LilliPopp its was so fast but now when im in MM its slow!! anyone have the same problem?
I have it too. Do not worry. Probably because EMUI is a bit slow in response sometimes. Fingerprint is affected and also sometimes "desktop". Yes EMUI has some bugs.
I read that India got B431 that fixes some things, including fingerprint. Not as fast as for EMUI 3.1, but close enough.
Same for me. Sometime work fine and unlock device sometime didn't work. But i found that it reconize the finger because it doesn't vibrate to said finger wrong. I read somewhere that could be a problem with the sleep mode
It's a bit weird, but maybe i fixed it. So i just switched on this option inside of the developer options: Use legacy DHCP client. I just switched on and now it looks like working as well. My theory is the new DHCP client does not fully compatible with the EMUI, and making bugs in the system.
Same issue here : slow fingerprint read.

Now I disabled all animations in developer settings. Now fingerprint scan feels much faster. Maybe placebo maybe real. Try and see if helps you.
Rollback to 180 it's insane to use the fingerprint so slow
I wanna ask, where is the option to use the fingerprint scanner to be a 'back' button? I'm on B330
there is no such thing anymore
Return/Back function with fingerprint
Hi
I also have a problem with the fingerprint but it's only with the "back/return" function...
It's doesn't work and I didn't found the option to activate or unativate it :/
It was so practice.
I have the B330 Android 6.0 :laugh:
Thank you

new update from Tmobile

I just installed an update from tmobile something about bug fixes and security . Sorry was to busy to write down the details but hope it fixes the phantom touches..
UPDATE 2: Oh no, it actually made the phantom touches worse, now instead of just the top section where you have the camera droop the thumb coordinates would trigger buttons on that spot, but now with the update, according to the touch sensors from developer options it shows the left and right touch coordinates will trigger even more around the screen. I think it just broke this phone.
Can anyone pls confirm this. The update has made the phantom touches worse and now my phone is unusable to play games because it always triggers buttons I don't touch when I make certain movements playing the games or apps

I have the TMobile version and have no issues with phantom touches. I would try a factory reset without restoring any data if I were you.

Dude that's so crazy maybe you should try a factory reset without restoring data too. Rcs is fully working for me out of nowhere again. It started working again yesterday before I received the update.

Thanks, I tried. Even had the phone replaced. T-Mobile thinks it might be the provisioning on my account, but I don't buy it since Google messages works. But I'm stumped, I can't even send a simple meme to someone on the stock app. I just says sending forever and never goes. I've tried wifi, 5g, 4g, resetting apn settings etc... Craziest dam thing
The feedback touching vibration is better now

Please enable developer options and then enable the two options, show touches and show touch data. On my V60 when I hold the phone horizontally as if to game using my left and right thumbs the touch data will show lines intersecting for each thumb press and the coordinates where the lines touch will show a circle indicating that point will trigger any onscreen button that it will touch. Can you pls try this, so I can see if I have a defective V60. Thanks

I get errors with screenshots that say can't send, then I retry and am presented with 2 options, retry with original size or send as MMS. The photos always go thru when I choose MMS. However, I have an issue with stock as well. Can't attach a gif, only sends a link, and no notification in AA unless it's a short code message. I'm getting real tired of having to switch to 3rd party to do those 2 things and then back again to see typing and delivery indicators and faster photo sharing.

You can use Google messages and get the RCS experience without switching back and forth. I would just prefer to use the stock app if it would work

The stock app is definitely much nicer then it used to be. I very much prefer it over Android messages when/if it's working. Thankfully like I said it just happened to start working for me again. Maybe it's just TMobile and google ironing out all the kinks who knows.

Also google messages seems to be a pretty major battery drain at least it was for me in the past. Not sure if it is anymore.
I really wish they had a changelog for this update... Two of my main issues are the speakerphone phone calls cutting off and the auto brightness
