System-volum bar goes up and down by itself

Hi,
I have a "little" problem which is very annoying...the volum bar goes up and down by itself, and this happens very often.

Typing a message (or doing anything else on the phone) takes a very long time because it keeps popping up all the time. I upgraded the ROM, but that didn't work either....it seems to use a lot of battery when this happens too Battery can be dead after a day or less...and that's when I haven't even used it at all.
I have no idea why this started to happen...I hadn't done any changes on the phone before that. It doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the volume buttons on the side either so it must be a software problem.
Any tips are greatly appreciated

I believe we have the same issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4081584#post4081584
This started happening yesterday for me.

yeah we have the same bug :/ atleast it's nice to see that I'm not the only one with this problem...hopefully someone will come up with a solution to fix this problem....It's driving me crazy

This happened to me after the phone got a little wet. It disappeared after a few days tho.

any chance its the auto change volume of the apointments calander
that mute the sound when u are in a meeting ?

Unlock/White & Black Screen Issue

I'm not sure whats wrong with my phone, I have the AT&T Tilt and I ran into a problem with it just last night...
I have no clue as to what caused it but whats happening is there is either a black or white screen on my phone when it is turned on
This is not like a normal black or white screen problem where the whole screen is either white or black, I've found my phone still works as in it recieves calls/texts however I can't pick up or access anything.
There are still the two bars on the top and bottom of the screen (The top bar has the start, signal, wireless manager, and battery icon while the bottom has the unlock option displayed)
I try unlocking and though the screen and buttons still sense it, nothing happens. I can do nothing with the top bar as well
It is still connected to the network, like i said I still recieve texts and calls but i can't do anything about it
Ive tried multiple softs resets, taken out the battery and sim, tried turning on the phone without the sim, and to no avail...
What do you guys think is the problem?
p.s. sorry for the novel i'm just frustrated with this issue an want to give you all as much information about it as possible

[Q] Dead pixel or ...?

I just got a replacement N7 since my first one stopped turning on or charging and this replacement one seems iffy. This little spot on the screen is always there, and is only not visible on black screens.
Any thoughts on what it is?
Attached is the best pic I could get of it...

Hi, lostchopstik...
Could be 'stuck' pixels....
I assume you've tried rotating the tab to see if it would move/go away?
Try installing one of the many SCREEN TEST apps from PlayStore.... you can scroll through various test screens.
If the 'artifact' refuses to disappear, and if it's something that's too much of an irritant to live with...
...get another replacement...
It's just not worth the hassle of being bugged by some screen defect... if that's ALL you're going to be looking for, EVERY time you turn on your tab.

Screen and S Pen issue

Ive started to use the s pen more and ive noticed the right side of the screen has a section which wo t detect my stylus pen. Its like anti pen, the pointer goes around that spot. Anyone else have this? Im running dark stalker + dpi adjusted.

Should i flash to stock and go to t mobile?

Go back to stock and test the s pen again. Make a backup of your ROM.
If it's the same in Stock, then you need to get the phone replaced.

I had the same issue when i got the phone. I had to have it returned for a brand new one due to this. Sometimes the screens pressure sense fails. On my replacement, there were points where i would pull out pen and try to screen shot and the screen would flash as if capturing a screenshot and then no options provided. I thought i was going to have to return another one but then the new update fixed the issue. I dont know why lol. But my second device seems to be working right now. Call tmo and tell them whats going on. If its within the 14 days, request a brand new one.

[Q] Purple glitches on front camera - hardware issue?

So, I got my brand new Z3C from Newegg last night. Came out of the box on 23.4.A.0.546, seemed to be working fine. Only thing is, about 30 minutes ago the front camera started flashing purple lines and boxes. I've attached a few examples. Happens in pictures and video, happens in both the default camera app and Snapchat. Only on the front camera, rear camera is fine.

I guess all I'm looking for is confirmation that it's not something I can fix. Did some searches, can't find anyone else reporting a similar issue. Definitely seems like faulty hardware to me, but I'd really rather not go without a phone for the week or whatever it'll take them to ship me a replacement.
Thanks in advance. Really wish this had cropped up before I transferred my number over.

So, uh, minor update: it only happens on LTE.
I swear to god. It's the weirdest thing. Turn on LTE, camera starts glitching out. Switch back to WiFi, after a minute the camera is fine. So either it's some really weird one-off manufacturing defect, or a really weird one-off software glitch.
