My Touchpad was running CM7 3.5 and functioning perfectly. I wiped it (data, cache and dalvik) and installed XRONs 2.9.1 rom. The touchscreen was a bit hit and miss. Worked a few times but mainly didn't work. Eventually nothing was working except the hardware buttons. I went back to CM7s alpha. Screen didn't work.
Booted into WebOS- no problem. Back to CM7- still not working. Also it gets some random reboots now which never happened before.
Any ideas on how to rectify this?
its a known issue with Cm7.....i normally hold power button and home button (the hardware one at the bottom middle of the screen) to reboot it....it works perfectly after that

No it doesn't work after I do a hard reboot. As mentioned, I have reinstalled the ROM after a wipe, done reboots, its still the same. Touchscreen doesn't work at all in Android now, even after everything is wiped and re-installed. Never had the issue with any of the CM7 alpha builds up to now.
i would suggest to completely remove android using ACMEUninstaller and then install again...Xron is working really good for many users...so I dont think its the cause of ur problem
Thanks for the replies, was going to uninstall it. But today its working fine. Went back to XRON and still seems ok. Weird.
i know right? I had screen freeze issues till Xron 2.8...but i didnt have any issue since i got on 2.9.1...the issue is with CM7 drivers..

I'm sorry to have to ask, but I'm at a loss at this point, I've fixed this problem 3 times, and it keeps coming back.
AT&T tilt, unlocked, Solace 3.1 ROM
HardSPL 2.97
The phone works perfectly fine, except when I have to restart it, then it gets locked in the Bootscreen....and becomes very difficult to get it out. I try a soft reset, hard reset, nothing seems to work.
When this originally happened, I reloaded Solace 3.1 only to have it continue to be locked in the boot mode. Finally I I noticed the camera button and the power button appear to get locked into the on position, so i would manually create space between the button, and the actual activating button within the phone. It has worked 3/200 times I have had this problem. Overall I solved it by never restarting or resetting the phone, but eventually even with a ram cleaning program it becomes a problem.
If I'm thinking of the wrong solution let me know, it now appears to be stuck again in the on position for the power button....I basically ripped off the outer camera button, and now have to manually press the small one within the phone to activate it manually. I still can't get it off the bootloader, and its quite a frustrating problem.
Again, everything software wise works like a charm, I would have to think it isn't software related. Any ideas? I'm at a loss at this point, and using my phone from 2 years ago as a result.
Have U tried using another ROM besides the Solace ?
Hi, I have an AT&T Nexus One, running FRF85B currently. As of lately, even before update I noticed my home and search button stopped working. The haptic feedback responds when I touch them but they don't do anything. I searched the forums so please don't flame me if I missed a thread. Much thanks to anyone that can help!
P.S. I soft reset the phone a few times and also have reflashed
can you post a logcat of what happens when you press the buttons? and also try wiping cache and dalvik cache
Try to wipe and reflash and post logcat
Gfs stock phone just started doing this. Will try to get some kind of logs... A reset wouldn't make her very happy, fffuuuu

according to this we arent the only ones. it looks like a factory reset can fix the problem, but some on the link above re-encountered the problem weeks later.
surprised XDA hasnt run into this before...
in addition to home/search buttons haptic'in but not doing anything, slide lock screen goes away and the phones cannot receive calls.
Those buttons are programmable, maybe some app took control and does nothing ?A launcher perhaps?
'Programmable'? How can I set Search to ixquick?

The app's manifest needs to mention that it can handle that event

doesnt make sense though, everyone that has had this issue had all 3 completely unrelated issues:
1. buttons vibrate, do nothing
2. phone cannot receive calls
3. lock screen disappears
a wipe fixed it last night but man it was a ***** to reinstall everything for her.

This is exactly what is happening to me. I'm going to wipe now.
god damn it. this **** just started happening again... n1 has been running the OTA stock GB 2.3.3...
we ended up getting HTC to warranty the phone and everything was fine until this morning..
any help?
same
So i started having this problem about 3 weeks ago as well right after i flashed CM7's newest experimental build. first thing I witnessed was not being able to receive calls. I figured that this was a problem with CM7 and flashed modaco's r26, after a full wipe, when it just came out a few days ago. After a day, i got the problem with the lock screen and the home and search buttons not working. I again thought this was a problem with gingerbread for some reason and flashed MIUI Mod Rodriguez style rom, again full wipe. I had restored everything through titanium backup and other forms of recovery and within about 60 minutes my home button and search keys stopped working.
So I finally figured that it was some settings that I must have adjusted and carried through numerous different ROMs that caused the problems. So next time around I didn't restore anything, running on MIUI mod, and didn't restore anything for the remainder of the day to see what happened. Low and behold, after a reset the problem came back. One other complication is that the phone will always forget my google account and i'll have to re-connect it. Then I realize that the home key doesn't work. So even not importing anything from my old Rom's with a clean wipe didn't get rid of it.
I still get haptic feedback, but the buttons just don't do anything. I changed the setting for how home and search respond in both scenarios and can't get any response either. I flashed back to an old version now and so far i'm alright. But if someone can figure out why this is happening that would be awesome.
For the other people who are having this problem, when you're doing a clean wipe are you then restoring things back via titanium back up or otherwise? and when did you first start to experience these problems?
Istarted having this same problem today. I recently flashed over to cm7 rc2 and then the same thing happened. It seems like after I do a titanium backup and then change a setting it will reset to the cm boot screen and when it comes back there's no home screen or search buttons. All the same issues. Haptic feedback works but nothing happens. I'm on an evo btw.
Same thing occuring for me after flashing CM7. Reverted back to Miui, but so far no luck in fixing this. Numerous factory resets have yet to resolve as well. This is pretty frustrating...
Having this issue as well on CM7. DEFINITELY Titanium related.
I had this problem too. I just had to shut down the phone then leave it for about 10-15 minutes then turn it on again. Everything should be fine again. ^^
Did ATT release some sort of stealth patch over the weelend? As of Sunday morning my home button now links to Desktop Home instead of the standard Android home. My phone also gets stuck in landscape mode.
I am running stock froyo with root and clockwork only installed!
The funny part about this is I can restore to a previous saved backup and have it start in non landscape. But once I reboot, say goodbye to portrait mode. You get stuck in landscape.
Anyone else had this issue and fixed it?
Highly doubt it, not their speed.
Caution swyping! Read at your own risk.
No att did not send some update to you.chances are it is a messed up accelerometer for the rotation problem and possible a setting change or random bug that has affected the homer button
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Well the funny thing is I do a factory reset and things are fun. No problems and every thing works perfect. Once i reboot after re-setting things up, it forces landscape mode and changes the home button. The accelerometer isn't broken. The reason I say this is because i can switch between between landscape and portrait just fine until I reboot the phone for the first time. If it was broken, it would not be able to do this.
One thing I am going to do is try and go back to factory in an area there is no service and see what happens. If it still does it, then I may be infected with something. But would be interesting since I haven't installed anything in weeks!
If ATT is sending stealth updates, then who knows what the heck they are doing with our phones!
There are no stealth updates. Recalibrate your accelerometer and it will work fine again. I never had the problem on my Captivate, but once I upgraded my brothers to KB1, his had the accelerometer issue. Horizontal calibration in Settings>Display fixed it.
I think I had the same problem.. Everything became landscape...
I just rebooted and it was fine..
Sent from my phone
Well recalibrating did not work. Still stuck in landscape mode. Rebooting does nothing. Still trying to find a place to test the theory that I was on first connect with ATT.
One other thing. If I clear the delvik cache, it rests the portrait mode and switches correctly from there until I reboot the phone. Then it switches back to landscape only. This is driving me nutts. I can not get this crap to top happening.

D'oh!
I love a good typo

So does anyone have any ideas on what to do with this? If I factory reset and clear delvik, I get the screen to work fine till I reboot. Once I reboot the phone, it gets stuck in landscape mode. I have tried everything on this and still can not get this to work. I am just about ready to ODIN it and see if that resolves the issue.
I have re calibrated about 50 billion times and it does nothing! Its not the exceleromitor since I can factory reset and it works till I reboot.

Hi all, hoping someone could help or at least set my mind at ease. I put the Axiom Cyanogen (?) ICS port on my Bionic yesterday and since it's been installed my soft buttons (menu, home, back, search) have been lit. Is this normal? Is there somewhere in the settings I can turn this off? I have looked thru all of them but can't seem to find the option. Thanks in advance.
it is just a random thing that happends when i flashed the axion it worked fine as soon as i flashed the 1 percent battery mod over i got the same thing so i wiped everything flashed new it worked fine so i suggested to reinstall i don't believe there are any setting that either enable/disable this just certain things that cause this that no one know a fix for it yet hope this helps..
Hi everyone,
I have here an old OG Milestone that's been working perfectly and happily running CM7. However, one day I thought to pass it on to my brother, so I ran a factory wipe on it from the menu (I know, I know, noob mistake) and then the touch spazzed out. Eventually I got to bring it back to life by re-rooting and re-flashing CM7, and now it's working perfectly fine. BUT! Once it booted up, I discovered that the back capacitive touch button no longer works! All of the others (home, menu, search) are perfectly fine, and I no longer have any touch issues on the screen itself, it's behaving perfectly.
My question being, do you think a problem that occurred while I was flashing it could have been the cause of the back button no longer working? Is this possible? Or is there a way I can test if the digitizer is the culprit and I have no choice but to get it fixed?
Did you flash the latest GApps package?
I recall that some people had touch-screens issues because of this - no idea why.
yeah, I did. the same one I used for my JB GNex. which one should I be using? and what should I do if I did?
Did you try reflashing the rom?
