I'm getting this phone in a few months time and see whether it is the right phone for me since I'm practically a gamer.
Let me explain this bug. It has been going around since the period of the HTC Hero.
Sometimes whenever you play a game that requires two finger touches, the touch response will glitch for awhile. For example, you move from point A to point B, but the touch screen will try to glitch your touch on point B to point A.
So for those who are using an HTC One, can you check if this bug is in your phone?

I also encounter this problem on my 2011 htc phone but only if using custom roms.

Out of the box the HTC one has HTC gestures enabled which means you will only have two touch points. Switch it off and you will get all ten touch points.
Go to "settings" - "Display, gestures and buttons". Scroll down to "gestures" and untick "HTC gestures"
I dont have that problem on mine if like above said. I turn off HTC gestures.

As in 10 fingers touching the screen?

Lates digitizer has the capability to regster 10points unlike the old one limited to only 4

I have no idea what you guys are trying to explain.
The bug is that when two fingers are touching on the screen, both moving, regardless of whether htc gestures is turned on or off, the touch responses will glitch around.
This mostly happens whenever the device is awake from sleep. And of course in-game.

I had the same issue as you but switching of HTC gestures cured it. With HTC gestures on the touch screen seems to get confused (as it will only differentiate two touch points), with it off it has been fine with me (now differentiating between 10 touch points).

Hello,
Since I've bought my Incredible S about 8 months ago, I've been experiencing this problem. Somethimes, when I'm writing a message, there is 1 letter that doesn't work, if I press on it, it chooses the letter besides it. If I exit the app and reopen it, everything is fine. So its only the keyboard that's acting weird.
I had this on the standard 2.3.3 and 2.3.5 and now on 4.0.3 with the Virtuous Quatrro ROM.
Now I'm using the default ICS keyboard, on Gingerbread I used Better Keyboard.
Does anyone know a sollution?
Just to notice, my phone was send to HTC for repair somewhere around Octobre last year, and they replaced the whole front, including the screen. 2 weeks before that, they replaced the motherboard. So I still had the problem after the repair. And I think it's not software related, bevause it's just when I'm typing something, and not when I'm scrolling trough menu's or something like that.
Had the same problem. And I have a solution: don't notice it
I know its irritating sometimes, but that's not a real problem, so take it easy

Well, half the times I'm writing a message there is at least one key not working, and I have to reopen the app, it's quite frustrating...

I have had that problem with my mum's Wildfire S as well.
But then i realized that the phone had not been rebooted in a while.
Restarting the phone did the trick so i assumed that there were too many programs running in the background.
However, now after i guess a couple of months, the problem still persists albeit at a very minor stage.
Either lock the screen then unlock it. Or reboot the phone.
Both methods work for me when I get this issue. I use the lockscreen when I need my phone but if I've got a 5mins spare ill reboot.

The funny part is when this issue occurs, sliding the lock screen also seems impossible
Then lockscreen and unlock it again and all is fixed? ..... when I have issues with lock screen I just lock and re-unlock then it fixes it.
Does that work for you?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
Locking and unlocking the lockscreen helpes, but there has to be a permanent sollution for this right?
Not that I know of. ....are you using just stock lockscreen etc or do you have 3rd party apps like widget locker?

Ahh then I honestly have no idea. I get it nown and again so it doesn't bother me too much.
All I can say it maybe try a different rom or kernel. Other than that I'm unsure maybe something internally it knackered as a worst case scenario.

I had this problem aswell. It started out in the same way as yours just being a tad un responsive, but slowly got worse. What it turned out to be was that digitizer was faulty as I replaced the digitizer myself and the problem was solved. As you say that the screen etc has been replaced before this could well be the case. I would recommend getting in done professionally as it isn't an easy job. Look on the market for a touch screen test app and see if you have any dead spots.

i've had the unresponsive lockscreen issue when using cm7 and cm7 based roms, then today i checked set cpu and i had a profile for screen off - a low clock speed with conservative governor. Changed to interactive and slightly high clock speeds and dont seem to be facing the issue any more....at least its been okay for the past 6 hours...hope this helps
I find if you lock the phone and wipe the screen until it's nice and clean it fixes this problem. It could be caused by a buildup of finger oils on the screen, or from your face after making a call. Not to sure though.

Hi all, recently j started getting a cursor that appears and looks like a tracer following my finger as I move my finger across the screen...and a bright red border randomly appears on my screen as well..I have looked in display settings but cannot find anything...
I have HTC Vivid, Stock ICS update 4.0.3....
Any ideas at all what this is and how to turn OFF? It does not seek to impact performance, just weird!

Hello guys,
Do you know if theire is an app for waking up the nexus just by tapping or sliding on the back screen? Such app exist for thé galaxy nexus.
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Your title contradicts itself. You want to tap your phone to wake it.. But also like pressing the power button? Did you mean you "don't" like pressing the power button?
Tap to wake exists but it has to be baked into the kernel and it's really useless (imo).
The `feature' works by basically keeping the screen in a powered state.. Kernels that support this feature (which is becoming less and less and less) usually set it on a 15-45 second timer... You have X amount of time after putting your phone to sleep that touch to wake will work.. After that time elapses your screen is fully powered off and touch to wake will no longer work. If this feature existed 24/7 you'd be going through batteries like crazy.
Hum ok dude thx for that answer, I want this function but il like more battery life...
Do you know any app waking the screen by capting motion with the camera? Or using any other sensors available on the nexus for doing so?

tbh not sure. I imagine someone could use the proximity sensor (which I don't think the N7 even has) but using that would cause so many false wakes by sliding it in and out of cases, etc it would also be useless.
Your only solution with the N7 is wearing a magnetic glove and waving your hand across the bottom left of the unit. :laugh:
Yeah or by implementing a magnet on one of my finger... I don't find the accès to the power button very easy thought

That's not necessarily so. PGM on the Nexus doesn't appear to work like that at all, though since it's proprietary, we don't know exactly how it works. It certainly doesn't chew up any more juice on my Gnex, nor does it cause wakelocks.
showp1984 is working on something similar for his N7 bricked kernel.

Gotcha, if that is your problem you could always use a ROM that has volume wake.. AOKP does for sure, CM10 does I believe (someone confirm) and probably others.. Enabling it will let you wake the phone using the power button or the volume rocker.. This will obviously will interfere with anything allowing you to use the volume rocker to advanced to the next song etc while the phone is asleep. This way you basically have 3 buttons to wake up the phone instead of finding `the one'.

New here in the HTC one area so please forgive me if this topic was already covered. Being new to the HTC phone I wasn't liking the soft button lights turning off during the day light so this app basically keeps button backlight always on, as long as the screen is on.
Confirmed working with HTC one. KiNDA
Soft Buttons Light

UPDATE: The soft lights turn off on occasion and I have to toggle the power button to turn the light back on. Bug I guess but quick minor temp fix by hitting the button
UPDATE 7-/4/13: According to solid.snake (see quote below), Capacitive Buttons Brightness Works well

Gaming. Had this problem on the photon back in the day. Only enabled two touch points and that caused an issue in some games. For instance when playing super Mario 64 you can't hold up to run, couch and jump. Not able to press all three on screen buttons at the same time

Ahhh makes sense. It's weird because running the multitouch test app it only shows 2 points. But when you enable "show touches" in developer options it will register all the points you're touching on the screen. Weirddddd
