I brought my phone over like 3 to 4 months ago and i am facing button problems, my menu, space and delete button on my G1 are nt as sensitive as before, i need to press like a few times before they would respond, the most irritating is my menu button, in order to unlock my screen i have to press one to three times. Does anyone here faced this problem? Thank You.
Sorry for the title, it should be questionable G1 build.
Actually, it should be "questionable manufacturing quality" as the word "build" is associated with compiling the software.

Hi all,
Just got my TyTNII yesterday to replace old O2 Zinc.
Everything was good, until i found out the button 5 (originally assigned for program camera) doesn't work.
I try to assign button 5 another program but it just doesn't work and when i reassigned button 6 for camera, button 6 works fine.
Everytime i press button 5, the response given is backlight will turn on, button 1 to 4 light will also turn on. but just that, the program assigned doesn't run.
I really don't hope to bring it to Service Center, as in my country, for PDA, even we claim in the same day we purchase, we won't get any replacement, and it will take one month (more) to return and sometimes just to let u know they didn't do anything. My previous O2 Zinc was also the second unit.
Help me please.
Keep it assigned to camera, but keep pressed a little longer to lunch the camera.
Hey I got my TyTN II yesterday, quite excited about the device. But I have the exact same issue. Did anyone else run into this problem? And any solutions for it, or should I ask for an exchange? Help please.
Ths button is a dual mode button for the camera. Light press to autofocus then deep press to fire.
If you re-assign it you need to press deeply to activate
Thanks for the reply, that was silly of me just figured it out.
Thanks for the reply.
Hey,
I recently received my G1 back from HTC after a repair, However I have realised that it has acquired a new problem since its return. For some reason if you press to hard on the 'Chin' or lower part of the phone where all of the function buttons are such as, Menu and call buttons, the screen will fade to black and will only re-appear on double pressing the end call button, however this doe not always fix the problem. This has become a problem when using the phone as it is very frustrating for the phone to go black and having to double press the end call button inevitably exiting the current application.
I'm reluctant to send it back as I do not want to wait and was wondering if this is a common problem or whether someone suggest something that I could do.
Many thanks
First off, I'd like to mention I'm new here, so if I'm posting this in the wrong place, please forgive me.
Second, the topic: I've had a problem with my power key for at least half a year now. As far as I can tell, it started after I accidentally dropped it (No harder than I usually would if I ever did drop it which is rare) with my otterbox case on it. I picked it up and tried to turn on my screen and noticed a long lag before the screen came on.
I didn't think anything of it until the next day the key wasn't responsive at all. I looked, and the key is not cracked, and there's no visible damage from the outside. I figured out if I shook the phone, or tapped on the button a certain way, sometimes I could get the button to work, but that was just unacceptable. So i found a fix in the application "Button Savior". Coupled with the volume rocker wake feature of my ROM.
But after all this time, I'd still really like my power button to work, so here are my questions:
1. Is this a common problem? Have you yourself experienced this, or have you seen others have this problem?
2. Any ideas on what is actually wrong with the button, and how I could fix the button mechanism? I'm not against taking the phone apart to repair it if that's what it takes.
Thanks in advance guys!
Additional info: Maybe not a hardware issue?
I've found that while having to enter into recovery mode by using the three button combo, it seems to register the power button being pressed in order to actually get into recovery, but once in recovery I have the same old problem of not being able to use the power button (as in I have to shake it and tap it a lot for it to register, and even that is unreliable)
Hi all!
First of all, I'm not sure if I'm doing everything right here, so excuse me if I'm doing something wrong
I'm new.
I've had my HTC One M7 from aliexpress.com for 2 weeks and 2 days now.
Have had great fun of it, nothing seemed wrong, was working perfectly. There were some rumours about an unofficial android-version that was put on this phone, which might be the problem..
Everytime I turn the phone screen on it thinks I hold/doubletap/tap/repeatedly tap the home button, and sometimes when I power it off it thinks I hold the volume down-button and takes a screenshot.. When I finally get to type my 4-digit pin code, it unlocks, goes to home screen, does the same again. Seems like my phone thinks I'm using the buttons..
I've changed settings (in a legit official way via Settings) of my home button to Hold for menu, Hold and swipe up for Google Search, and double-tap for recent apps..
Have tried factory reset twice, have tried rebooting it over and over, have tried almost anything.. I'm at the point of buying a new phone now, because I fear that HTC will not help me because it's an unofficial version of Android.. Any suggestions?
Everytime I open an app it just closes it and goes to home, sometimes before it does that it opens recent apps.. After that it just freezes and I can't touch it. Sometimes after waiting a couple of seconds, I can tap the screen and maybe it's fast enough to open for example WhatsApp, and then it just shuts off and does what I just stated.
Really weird!
I'm quite desperate. Could a custom ROM (Cyanogen or Android lollipop) fix this perhaps?
Please, help

This is purely a hardware issue. Your home button is somehow always in "on" position. Given it's a capacitive button, it could be the digitizer or a scratch on the home button area

Any idea on how to fix this?
This is somewhere about what I mean, read my reply also.
This might even be closer to what I mean.
Should I just send it back to HTC or can I fix this myself, with your heroic help?

Seems like just the thing I wrote. Considering it's a hardware issue you could replace the screen-digitizer assembly by yourself if you are familiar with that kind of work. I tried once on my old Desire and fried the motherboard, so I don't have cojones to do it [emoji6]

Thanks for assisting me. I will bring it to a Chinese or turkish guy around here who will do it for cheap
Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I got my device in December 2017, and the power button has been having problems for a few months now.
When I press it to wake the phone, many times I need 2 or 3 presses to get it to work. Same when locking the phone. Sometimes I need to try 2-3 times until I get a screenshot (I'm using the shutdown/restart menu screenshot button, which appears when you long-press the power button) because the phone registers the long-press as two separate presses, so it locks and wakes the device on the lock screen, making me unlock and try again.
I've searched online, found many people having problems with the Redmi Note 4, which is built similarly as our Redmi 4x, but found nothing really interesting.
Pressing harder doesn't seem to help. I opened the phone and stuck a little piece of paper on the flex to help it register better, but it actually worked worse than before. I'm out of ideas.
Since I live in a different country now, I have no warranty here and don't want to pay a lot for this.
Any ideas, any similar experiences?
Thanks!
