After I boot the diamond (GSM) the phone starts behaving in an erractic manner. The task drop down list in the upper right corner keeps getting triggered automatically without any input. Any applications which I open get automatically closed after a few minutes. It appears that the close button which appears in the right hand corner is being pressed automatically.
I thought that this was something to do with the ROM so I reflashed it with a new ROM. I was on Don Salari ROM earlier and now have Gen.Y R5.5 but still the issue reoccurs. Recently changed the battery to a high capacity compatible one, thought that it might be the issue but the behavior persists even when using the old battery. I've also recalibrated the screen but the issue persists.
I've uploaded a video of the odd behavior to youtube but can't the post the outside link in the forum yet. If required please PM me and I'll pass on the link.
Any one has experienced similar behavior? Any troubleshooting guidance and solutions are welcome.
anyone please???

**(SOLVED)**I have a slight problem that started recently with my phone, and was hoping someone would know a possible solution or have heard of something similar.(before i go on, i have searched around the forum for a while, and saw no issue that is very similar)
Firstly, i have the stock htc/at&t rom, stock radio, basically everything out of the box aside from a bunch .cabs and games.
Basically, on my today screen, in the top right corner it displays the network coverage (i.e. 3G, HSPDA, EDGE, etc...), the volume setting of my phone(ring, vibe, silent), the battery icon, and the task manager.
Currently, the battery status indicator says full, however when i touch it and the battery power remaining screen comes up it shows 55%.
What i have figured out has happened is that the battery icon in the top right will display whatever charge the battery is at when i turn on my phone, for example if my phone is plugged into a charger and i turn on the phone, until i reset my phone it will display it as being plugged in. So while once i click on it - it will show me the correct battery power remaining, the actual icon itself is not working properly.
[its not so much the that it not working affects me very much, its the fact that it should be working and isnt is quite irritating]
currently the .cabs i have installed are:
HTC home customizer
Pandora Touch 3G dialer
A_C S2U2 (slide to unlock)
pocketmax quote today
jizy HTC action screen
HTC HTC Plus
Spb Time
HTC HTC Home
Of those, i have narrowed it down to probably being cause by the Slide to Unlock program, 3G dialer, or the HTC home customizer, but these are just guesses based on the time i installed the .cabs(usually do a few at a time), and when i noticed the problem started occuring.
As well i might mention that the .cabs i installed might not be the most up-to-date, so if anyone knows that an older version of a cab i have produced a similar problem, than it might be because i have that older version. like i said i have searched for a solution to this problem, but haven't had any successful results.
thanks.
bump.
bumpity bump bump.
did you ever install the battery icon installs from the thread below?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=289003
also you can check this registry key...
HKLM/securoty/resover/bitmaps
If you have 2 keys in there titled "BatteryIconIdStart" and "BatteryIconLevels", that could also be the issue.
Let me know if you have either of these keys in your registry.
Solved
tnx for the suggestions guys, but i found the problem to be in the Touch 3g dialer(not sure exactly where).
Uninstalled and problem is fixed.
So a word of warning, Don't Install The Touch Dialer. lol.

I am having the same problem... just uninstaller the touch dialer, but unfortunatley, did not seem to fix the problem. I'll try reinstalling the battery status icon's mentioned above as well (I had previously installed them) in the morning... but for now need to get to sleep. I would like to know if anyone else using the touch dialer is having this issue though.
Hey,
I have an HTC One black - stock os - UK unlocked version - after 4.2.2 update.
I've got a strange problem regarding the top of the touchscreen. when the phone is horizontal, the top bit (between the top bar to the first widget) is not working. the rest of the screen working fine. when I pick the device up, the screen is working fine 70% of the time. as a result, I cant open the notification bar and it thinks that I'm clicking or re-arranging my widgets.
It's weird because IT DOES work 60% of the time.
1. did any of you experienced any of this before?
2. What do you think it is? software or I have to replace the digitizer?
3. Is it just calibration problem? I tried to calibrate the device using the keyboard screen calibration and it didn't do anything.
Thanks!
Eran.

Bump for more responses

I just started experiencing this same problem today as well. I was on a Google Edition 4.3 Rom for about 2 days, Viper 3.2 I believe and everything was initially working as it should. Suddenly I began experiencing the non responsive status bar. I cleared data & cache, fixed permissions, and even tried a factory reset with no luck. I then reinstalled the Rom and the problem persisted. I then downloaded and installed black jelly Rom along with a complete wipe of the entire storage after transferring important data to my PC, but the status bar was still unresponsive and it appeared the top 1/4 inch of display had a digitizer issue. I tried to restore an older backup of Venom Rom running Sense and I still had no luck, until I went into the browser so that I could rotate into landscape to see if I could access it from this orientation (don't know why that didn't cross my mind sooner?) After I pulled the notification shade in landscape I left it down and rotated back into portrait mode and drew the shade back up slowly, following through with the gesture all the way to the top of the display. Then the functionality from portrait was restored! I believe this is a software bug of some sort, but I'm contemplating returning it to stock and relocking the bootloader to return it. I'm actually using the Tmobile variant and it's only about 30 days old. My insurance will cover a replacement for a faulty unit, but who knows if will happen with another? After a Google search I discovered this was an issue that surfaced with quite a few One X's as well, so I'm thinking it may be a bug that's consistent with some HTC hardware of a different variants? Any updates or insight would be appreciated.
hey,
since one or two months i have some troubles with my touchscreen. Randomly it starts to press something that i didn't touch and when i stop touching the screen, the system touches from alone. mostly opening google now by swiping up the home button. it also types thigns in whatsapp or so. Sometimes when i turn on the phone the touchscreen doesn't respon. all those problems are solved when i turn off the screen for 5 secs and turn it on again. i am running eXistenZ v3, i also tried some aosp 4.3 roms and had the same problem.
Any idea ?
EDIT: because the problem is solved as soon as i turn of the screen and on again i am not sure if it is really a hardware problem, is it ?

I was just about to post with the same issue!
I replaced the screen and back cover on my Xperia Z back in August and it was running issue free for 2 months but after the update last month to 4.2.2 I started having serious issues with touch screen.
Random inputs, no response to touch, looping homescreens and random apps opening and worse.
I am torn between a hardware issue?
As when the USB cable is connected the problem seems to gone so I think there may be a slight voltage leak screwing with the screen?
What is the best way to ensure that it is not a ground/voltage leak issue?
Or
Or because the issue cropped up almost immediately after the last Sony update, is there a chance it could be a software issue?
I am running on Stock 4.2.2 and any advice will be much appreciated
I have noticed yesterday that my Z's screen keeps pressing a certain spot randomly. Its by the O / P when i use the onscreen keypad. I opened the note app and drew lines, and there is an actual break in the lines when i draw in that area. This happened so sudden. I didnt drop my phone or anything. I just noticed it while typing that the letters started to get jumbled.
I have the same issue but only on certain kernels, I'm using that XZK "Stock kernel" with dual recovery and it's fine now (Note: This kernel only runs on Sony roms) Also, not sure if it's related but if i leave my phone to charge over night, ill turn the screen on and the touchscreen won't respond at ALL unless i hard-reset...

It might have even been a corrupt update, if you run windows go onto the sony application and get it to RE update your phone see if it fixes, it might. And if it does, yay. if not, then atleast you've ruled that out, right?
Well I noticed a small distortion in the screen on a white background in the area that my screen was experiencing random touches, and today I pulled my phone out of my pocket....and 4 cracks spread all over my screen....cant use the touch screen now have to look to order a screen
Hi, I looked for other threads in which someone else faced the same problem, but I have not found any answer nor good solution.
The problem is that the screen of my S3 MINI turns on automatically.
I changed the ROM twice (2 different ones, CM 10 and 11), so I don't think the reason is a single "defective" app: I believe in another explanation, according to which the reason would be a broken pin inside the microUSB port of the smartphone.
That pin let turn the screen on like if it was put /unput in charge.
The Question: is there a ROM / KERNEL / APP that prevent the screen from making this error?
How much is hard to edit a rom/kernel in order to avoid that the screen lightness wolud depend from that pins?
And if the reason is a defective app, has someone ever discovered which one is?
I'm afraid it's a way to screw the consumer: this automatic and uncontrollable activity of the display destroys the battery life. It's like if the smartphone is broken: you should change it.
I cannot accept that a 440€ smartphone acts in this way. I'll never buy a Samsung product.
I won't talk about the home button broken (could someone give me an advice on which app that simulates the virtual buttons is better?).
Thank to you all!

UPDATE 28/12/2014 h14:34 ITA
I did a screenshot and I also photographed with a camera the display while it was showing the CPU activity. I noticed something (an app? a opened file? a function?) that appears only when the display turns on automatically. Some green words. I'm going to upload photos.
UPDATE 16:30
Cannot upload photos. Here are the scripts that appears on my phone:

UPDATE 03.01.2015
I fixed the issue at the moment. I installed CM 11-20140823 after wiping and formatting data.
I installed the lowest number of Google Apps (here I chose Nano Modular Package: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44417509#post44417509 ).
I'm quite sure it's a issue caused by a unidentified google app, because when the phone was "clean", the screen kept turned off ALWAYS, unless I pressed the accension button.
Now that I installed ONLY Google Play and Google Services, the screen is ok.
So I will download only the most useful Google Apps, hoping that won't find the one infected (if I'm right about the cause of the automatic flash of the screen).
I also discussed about this issue here , and I discovered that many people are searching for a solution.
Maybe someone could confirm or contradict my theory.
Hello,
I own the watch for about 1 year, and recently I faced issues with it,
The upper notification menu stays on the screen and start flashing in glow lightning, sometimes it's half screen, or just 2 lines from the top.
I think it's a burn-in but not sure, it appears only after leaving the watch without use (usually at night, and i can see the problem appearing in the morning).
It disappearing alone after playing with the watch for couple of minutes (turning off,on...)
*I'm running on LeeDrOiD latest rom
**can't post pictures cause i'm a new user....
Does anyone faced this issue, or have a solution for this ?
Thanks Ahead
Yes, a lot of post for this common issue.
it stop after a while and maybe related on the face used and on the time where the screen stay off.
Thanks, the problem seem to have been fixed after flashing the original stock rom.
