Hey guys, lately i've been really annoyed because i can't use any ICS rom properly, mainly because my MENU button is not working.
I got this app "ButtnRemapper" which reassigned my hardware keys to the one i wanted.
So i switched the home button to menu and it worked great on the Gingerbread ones, but on the ICS roms it would not work!
That's why i'm asking if there is any possibilites of porting software button as the Galaxy Nexus has.

Not meaning to be captain obvious, but why not consider getting your home button fixed? Flash your phone back to original state and no warranty problems there - and after some time you'll finally be able to fully enjoy your phone.
My optimus 2x becomes frequently unresponsive to touch although the screen is still visable. Sometimes the back button works. For example it always happens when I enter the Bluetooth connectivity screen..... so I have to go back to main screen then re enter the connectivity screen numerous times till the screen becomes responsive to pair the device. But to be honest it occurs randomly all over the place. I'm just wandering .. is this an Android problem or just an issue with the optimus 2x. Is there a known fix. PS not sure if its connected but Google navigator GPS hangs unless I reboot phone only then will the GPS follow me onscreen. I would love to be able to fix these problems this weekend as they are becoming hard to live with ESP the GPS problem as I have to do emergency home visit to people in the community.

From what I understand you're running LG stock rom rider right now?
As it has been said a thousand of times in this forum, LGs stock rom its prone to all sorts of bugs. Lack of responsivness is one of them, probably due to bugs in the included kernel and framework.
If you really want to stick to the standard look and feel, there's a rom out now that has this and a lot of fixes. Else I would recommend you to take the usual CM7 road for full stability and compatibility.

When I want to turn on the display (by pressing the power button), sometimes he is not turn on. Touch keys shine, but screen not (black screen). To avoid this problem, i press power button again to turn off, and again to turn on. I am not alone with this issue.
It is a bit annoying. How resolve this problem?
Was observed in the following ROMs:
stock ICS ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28992763
Android Revolution HD 3.0.0
Reborn ROM
UKB X
and more...(list will be added)
p.s. If you have this issue too, write the name of the ROM.

So, in my opinion, the problem may be in the kernel or some application. But this is only speculation.
Need experts, to help out the problem.

Please add UKB X to the list. FYI, I never have this issue in IceColdSandwich or PlayGround.
Yeah this problem is quite irritating on the stock Rom. I think it'd called a wake lock.

Just want to report that apart from pushing the power button, I also experienced the issue when alarms go off and calls come in. So it definitely has nothing to do with the physical button.
Strange, I haven't faced this problem on ARHD and now i m using ICECOLD Sandwich
Me neither. I've used Icecold, Playgorund, Rebirth, Virtuous VIVO and finally ARHD 3.0.0. and never faced such issue
Just tried the latest Virtuous Infinity alpha without installing any additional apps and I do experience the "turn on" issue once. So it's pretty clear now the problem is either related to hardware (less likely) or kernel, at least to me. Could be a combination of both, of course.
@vladabiber, I never had this issue before when using IceColdSandwich nor Playground too.
Since there's no problem in AOKP ROMs, I'm pretty sure it's not a hardware issue Could likely be sth with kernel but I'm not sure...
So, problem still not resolved?
Anyone have a solution?

I think the problem in Sense. Is there any way to tell HTC about this bug?
And how about factory reset?

You can always report it to HTC through their customer service. But my experience tells me their CS can only tell you nothing more than resetting your phone.
Anyone been checking logcat to see if the phone recognizes its not turning on? Probably too many processes running which is causing display lag. Try plugging phone into charger, check stay awake and try turning on the screen as it may be timing out before it has a chance to turn on.

Unlikely, because if quickly push power button, screen turn on normal.
Has anyone tried doing a hard reset, I know it's foolishly, but anyway?
Yes same here. issue occurred after the stock ICS update.:crying:

I tried to write in customer support, but they are advised only hard reset
I think, i found a solution. This problem called "deep sleep", solution is increase the frequency when phone in sleep mode with SetCPU.
Now testing in process. Detailed instructions will come later.
Hi all
I recieved the Update to ICS on 2. July. I was very happy about it and it is really great. But I recognized 2 problems:
-Preformance is not the best
and
-the touch doesn't always recognize more than 1 finger.
What I did to fix:
I tried a hard reset and it fixed the performance, but not the touch.
When does the bug appear:
Often, but not always. Sometimes it works fine and then it doesn't work properly
When I play games, some games needs to tap at varius points on the touch. When I fast tap then the touch doesn't always recognize any fingers. With 1 finger, the touch works fine, with 2 fingers, it doesn't always work.
I attached a link to show how the touch doesn't always work.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4910238/IncSTouchbug.mp4
I started the thread to find other people who have the same problem. At the moment I'm writing with the htc support, and I hope that I find more people who has the same problem, so I can give him the link and they try to fix that annoying bug.
i hope I'm not the only one out there and we and HTC can find a fix.
best regards

Hi MrToastbrot. I have the same issue, after getting OTA 4.0.4 update, from HTC. I noticed the problem early, so I've been searching all over the web to find some solutions, but couldn't find any.
Please write a message, if HTC Support does give you some useful information about this problem.
Best regards
Luckyone.
My Incredible S acts similar, if it is touched by 4 fingers - then fingers on screen are detected "jumping", like in video. That continues even when only 1 finger is still on screen, but ends when nothing touches the screen.
I would post a link of google ''android issues'' page, but I can't because of ''Spam protection''.
The thing I wanted to say is, that this problem doesn't only concern HTC users, but it appers on, for example, Galaxy Nexus with different android versions too.
One guy wrote : ''I've heard people claim its something to do with the digitizer losing calibration when getting hot and that locking and unlocking the device recalibrates it.''
Still waiting for solution.
Edit : p.s. yeah - factory reset didn't help it.
Edit2: ....or it did? Right after factory reset, i tested the multitouch - it still wasn't working. After I downloaded some apps, I decided to test it again, just in case, and it seems to be working now. .
Edit3: It seems, that the theory about digitizer getting hot is true. A minute after I plugged my phone to charger the multitouch stopped working properly. Sad. Well, I guess we will have to wait some updates from HTC, or put our phones in a fridge or something.
Cheers!
ALMOST Solution found!
All we can blame is HTC Sense. You see - when you unlock the phone, the locker(sense locker) does something to make multitouch not working.
When you go to the ''Apps'' menu in ''Settings'' and Force Kill HTC Sense(the one with green HTC logo), touch screen starts working flawlessly again.
After you lock and unlock screen again - it won't be working.
The thing is - I'm a bit afraid to disable Sense permanently.
Let me know if this work for you guys.
Cheers.
Edit : Force Stop ''HTC Sense'' with launcher logo too. I'm really confused, because I can't understand what Stock Launcher has to do with multi-touch issues...
Nice, so we have only to wait until htc fix this bug. But one question:
Why does HTC Sense affect, that the touch isn't working correct in games?

Solution, I think, is to do HARD reset. Atleast it's working fine now in ''MultiTouch Visualizer 2''. Haven't tried in games.
:good:
Note: This will return your device to its original factory settings(all the data from internal storage will be removed).
- With the phone turned off, press and hold the Volume Down key;
- With the Volume key held down, press and release the Power key;
- Release the Volume down key;
- Press the Volume down key twice to highlight FACTORY RESET/CLEAR STORAGE;
- Press and release the Power key;
- Press the Volume up key to factory reset the handset;
The phone is restored to factory settings.
:good:
EDIT: GOSH, I'm sick of trying every freaking thing. Doesn't work with Hard reset!!!!

The problem is inside HTC's kernel, so we can't really do anything about it.
And I think I will go for a custom kernel, because HTC will take it's time to fix this and realese update.
Cheers.

I tried a hard reset 1000 times and it doesn't work. I just think, the htc developers are noobs lvl infinity and the devs on xda are real pro's
We have to wait until htc releases the kernel source and the xda devs fix this bug

Yup. I'm facing this bug too. YOU'RE NOT ALONE.

Any news on the touchbug yet?
I'm experiencing the same problem.
When I type fast (with two fingers) in Wahatsapp or SMS, the keyboard starts acting weird.
On a HTC Rhyme with ICS and Sense 3.6 (frow htcdev.com) everything runs smoothly. (same processor and resolution as htc incredible s).
So it's bug specific on HTC Incredible S ICS/Sense 3.6 software.
Has anyone received news yet or contact with htc about this? It's pretty annoying and I would think that HTC should issue a patch to resolve this.

The problem is in kernel, so i guess if you put a custom kernel this bug will disappear.
Edit : nop, that didn't work for me.

False. Just flashed Nik Project X v4.1 with HTC Sense 4.0.
Multi-touch bug is gone, even though they use stock kernel. I guess the problem was in HTC Sense 3.6.
P.s. ROM is working flawlessly. Best rom I've ever had. :laugh:
I'm also facing the multi touch prob using niks project x v4.0, with lost prophets Kernel
Cheers

I'm getting tired. And anything I could say now is - ''What the f**k?''
Multitouch was working on Nik Project X v4.1 fine until.. I don't know really.
And now, when I want to get it working again, I randomly change some settings or force close some apps(for example ''Media Link HD setup'') it starts working again, but, unfortunately - not forever.
Trying to find solution, but can't find any.
Begging for solution... :laugh:
Peace!
p.s. Multitouch is working in some apps. For example N.O.V.A 3, but not working in other apps, like Jet Car Stunts, Gangstar Rio: City of Saints, MultiTouch Visualizer 2 etc. Zooming in browsers and something like that works fine.
can't type "P" or "0" on keyboard. dead spot on touch screen.
I can't type the alphabet "P" or "0" on sense 3.6 Rom.
and on sesne 4 rom, can't type "0" ( P is working)
With show touches & pointer location from dev option, clearly about 1 cm of touch screen is not working. (no touch show beyond 1 cm of right margin.)
take a look at pic, pls.
Because of dead spot, I can't type alphabet "P" and "0" and can't play some game like https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5lY2FweWNzdy5vbmV0b3VjaGRyYXdpbmciXQ..

Have you tried changing kernels?
hi guys,
i just installed the vanilla custom rom jelly bean for htc sensation xl and now i am having issues with my screen (whenever i lock it, the screen looks like an old tv being turned off, slowly going to a white screen and then fading to black) + music only plays through the speakers. another thing is i can no longer use the tethering feature ( i used to connect my phone to the internet by using my pc net connection).
i have no idea how to fix these things, i've been searching solutions on various pages, but nothing useful. if you know how i could fix these issues, i'd appreciate it. or suggestions on how to go back to ICS...
They are all features.. Not problems. The tethering is now in connections.
