Hi guys,
The sensors of my OB (Vodafone Portugal V10a) are not working properly.
When I press G button and shake the phone, the camera doesn't turn on.
The mute function when phone is ringing and we turn it over, also doesn't work.
And maybe some others...
I don't know why, but I used it in the last weekend and everything seems to be working.
I only got the panning functions working, rearraging items and also double tapping in the side of the phone. But these were also not working until I uncheck and then check all the gestures on the settings.
I turned off and turned on the phone and also removed the battery, but I'm still having problems...
Does anybody have an issue like that?
Is there a way to solve it?
How can I perform a hard reset and go back to the factory settings?
The phone is not rooted. Should I send it to warranty?
Regards.
I did a factory reset and now I got everything working!
Weird...

Alright my At&t tilt front face buttons started to not work (i could only use the arrow buttons and the ok button) and my keyboard stopped working but the arrow keys would. i upgraded the rom after calling htc for help. that didnt fix a thing and now today none of the buttons work. i keep getting the PTT to come up and ask for installation and edfc keeps typing themselves on the screen. so idk if it is a software problem or if the hard ware is malfunctioning.
Damn, I got the same problem. Does anybody know how to fix this?
the same problem here... :/
same problema here.
i already tried another radio, another SPL, another ROM and nothing.
any idea?
Just updating.
Yesterday my tytn started working perfectly again, but today the same problem is occuring. I did nothing, so probably is really a hardware issue.
I have a similar problem.
Send/End + Soft Keys + Keyboard are not working. The issue is not resolved yet?
Wow, this problem just happened to me as well. I've searched everywhere on the net and couldn't find anything.
So is this a pervasive issue? Anyone with any hint as to what might be the source of the problem?
Originally, I thought it the PTT button was stuck in the PRESSED position because the phone behaves as if this button was constantly being pressed. For example my PTT button was mapped to Voice Recorder if the PTT button was held down. The voice recorder constantly comes on everytime I turn the phone on!!

I have the exact same problem.
The only change I recently made (two weeks ago) was installing tom tom navigator.
First I thought it was a virus and I installed bull guard, but with no success.
It opens/closes the start menu every second, no buttons work apart from the directional buttons and it writes "edfc" in my textmessages when I turn on/off the screen with the power button.
Most of the time(!) this irritating opening/closing of the start menu only happens after I first turn off/on the screen (with the power button).
I saw this problem described in a post dating back almost two years ago. Someone ought to know the answer to our problems. What does HTC say about it?
I have been lucky and not had this issue yet; but I would recommend starting by flashing the stock rom from HTC. Then hard reset; that will clear everything back to original. If you still experence this after that, then you have a hardware issue. Good luck
This just happened to me this morning. I cant use any buttons and nothing is popping up. This is soo wierd cause the phone was just sitting there overnight!!
Me too...
I have been going nuts with this issue for a couple months now. Makes the phone unusable half the time. I am so disappointed to find that a ROM reload doesn't fix it!! I remapped the 6 key to none and that sort of helps but it was mapped to Voice record before and it would constantly record memos until all the memory was gone in the phone and then it would all crash from there. So frustrating.
I too get the edfc message after I reboot....
It really seems like a virus the way it acts but I guess if it is a hardware issue then it's not a virus.
Anyone ever figure anything out with this? Nothing has changed on my phone recently.
Still an issue?
Holy Toledo fellow Tilt Users. Have you ditched your half-functioning touchscreen, or have we figured out how to solve this issue.
Recently I FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM!
I am going to do what was suggested (original HTC Rom & hard reset) and will let you know if I get the rest of my keyboard back...
All buttons except for power and... NOT WORKING
Outside "Enter" buttons work but they are mapped to Windows key. ? Weird. For some reason the kaiser thinks it is something else. I do not know how it got this way, but there must be a way to convince the hardware of the existence of all my other buttons. The entire keyboard does not work.
Hard Reset & stock HTC Rom did not help. I was surprised that I could hard reset it at all since the two soft buttons are unresponsive to software.
Anyone figure this out yet?
Hi, I got the same issue today as well - Has anyone got rid of this?
Hello Everybody,
I've got a strange issue with my One: I purchased it to a friend 2 months ago, and from the beginning I saw that the capacitive buttons backlight was not working (it was ok for me, saw it with my friend before purchasing, and didn't want to send it in warranty for that).
I tested it also with HTCs test menu (*#*#3424#*#* in the phone interface) and they still didn't illuminate. But since last week-end, sometimes the buttons light up. When it's the case, their backlight works correctly, the brightness is automatically adjusted with ambient light level. But the buttons still don't light-up 90% of the time.
Does someone has an idea on what's going on?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Best Regards
Ludobal
More information needed
Is it a stock Rom?
Unlocked Bootlaoder?
Custom Kernal?
Have you tried a factory data reset?
Hi, and sorry, I should have specified all of that before.
I'm on stock ROM, rooted, and TWRP installed.
I already did several factory resets (didn't have the choice, I had some crashes after installing updates or after restarting the phone), without any change.
Thanks a lot for your help.

I am having the same problem as you. In the dark, when the buttons are supposed to light up, they sometimes do and sometimes don't. I've done a reset with no change.
I'm wondering if I need to send my phone in for repair. It's a stock 64GB Developer Edition on 4.1, with the exception of S-OFF.
Hello,
It's not specially a good news, but I'm glad I'm not alone with this issue... I didn't want to send the phone to repair only for this backlighting issue, but now I saw it work, I really wonder if I can find a solution somewhere.
Regarding the problem itself, just a precision: when the backlight works, if I use the phone for a few minutes (2 or 3), the buttons lights systematically turns off. It comes back (or not) after a short standby period.

When my lights work, they work properly, staying on when needed and turning off when they are supposed to.
Also, when you turn the phone on with the charging cable plugged in, the button lights blink as the phone is coming on. When the lights stop working, the button lights do not blink, so it could actually be a hardware issue.
Hi everyone I've got a big problem with my wife's Mi 5. After some minutes/hours of usage the touchscreen stops working and the only solution the make it work again is to reboot the phone (by keeping the power off button pressed).
I've tried some rom (MIUI stable, MIUI dev, Paranoid Android 7.3.0) but all of them have the same problem, someone has got the same issue?
I think it's not only an hardware problem because the touchscreen works most of the time... Any ideas?
I'm having the exact same problem with my wife's Mi5 too. I thought she was talking rubbish until I started using the phone full time over the past few weeks.
Symptoms:
Screen switches on and accepts one touch event.
Screen is then unresponsive to touch events.
All other buttons (home, power, volume) all work OK.
All functions work OK (calling, SMS, etc) via remote control (MyPhoneExplorer)
Screen then becomes responsive again after reboot
Tried so far:
Clearing dalvik/cache
Clean flash - using MiFlash and China dev ROM
Opened phone, cleaned all ZIF connections and reconnected.
It almost feels like something in the touch firmware or driver crashes and does not reconnect - as the phone is clearly usable save for the touch panel.
I'm going to ask Bruno/bgcngm and see if there's anything I can do to try and diagnose the issue.

In my case unresponsive screen to touch events, all phisical button works and the only option to make it works again is to reboot. I didn't try to use it with some "remote" control.

I didn't try to open the phone, but I installed all roms with TWRP and format data/wipe cache/dalvik before.

I also think that it's related with a software issue...

Well on my old mi4c i had similar problem. I mean sometimes when i pressed power button and tried to unlock it screen didn't work. For me solution was simply to press power button again to turn off screen and then turn IT on. Maybe this will help u. Have u try that ?

Do you think it's something related with Doze or standby? I think so because today (and yesterday and so on...) I wasn't able to turn off the wake up alarm (the phone was in standby with the screen off all night) with "the screen" but I have to force restart the phone with the button... and it's very annoying.
Maybe we can try with some Marshmallow ROM instead Nougat one.

I'm facing same issue.I've changed my display panels but it doesn't solve my problem.it is quite painfull.i don't know what should i do.
any update sir?
My MI 5 has a different issue. There is no response if I place the phone on the table, but it is fine if I held it. It seems the touch panel is only responsive when the sort of sensors that a human is holding the phone. I have no idea why it starts to happen in these weeks. This symptom happens even in TWRP, so I don't think it is related some particular ROM. Tried firmware 7.7.6 ~ 7.9.22 with no luck.
skip lock screen
Hi
I know I am late to the party, but just faced the same issue yesterday. To bypass the issue, follow the following steps
1. Restart your phone .
2. Enable developer options from about section in settings. (google enable developer options for specifics)
3. In developer options, there is an option to skip screen lock. Enable that.
4. Voila!!
Hope it will help other mi5 users..
Hi,
I had the same problem. I found this video and I tried to fix it. It worked pretty well. Bye
In a situation that I can't do any service for my Mi5 as of now - is this really loose cable thing ?
Can more folks confirm that this cable solution from above video works ?
exactly same symtoms :
Random screen freeze - only option is to reboot phone or phone goes rebooting randomly itself.
Hi.
I have some problems with lock screen button. It doesn't work most lifetime of my phone. Than it woks for one or two hours, and again don't work. My phone was шт service center, but they say all is ok.
When i do factory reset it starts to work, but when i install apps the problem comes again.
I think it is going on of the firmware.
May be someone has the same problem.
What should i do?
Thanks
Hi guys. I need help ASAP. I purchased a RP2 and I'm experiencing the following: randomly my phone screen won't turn on after I lock it. When the screen is active and I'm using the phone everything is okay, the problem appears when after I'm done and I lock it sometimes it won't turn on (the phone is still on, buttons vibrate and it makes sounds). The only """"fix"""" is to hard reset it by holding the power button for a couple of seconds.
I TRIED EVERYTHING! Restoring the phone to factory settings, flashing official Android 9 ROM, downgrading to Android 8.1 and the problem persists! I don't know if by installing an unofficial ROM would solve this or if the flex from the screen is loose so I gotta tear it down and reconnect it.
There's no way for me to RMA it since 1) warranty is void and 2) I'm from Argentina.
Please guys I beg for help I dont know what to do. Thanks for reading
