Does Your Home & Back Button Stop Working?

I'm wondering if I've got a faulty device or if it's maybe a software bug. I know there's a topic in the troubleshooting but id like a simple yes or no and if you're using a screen protector or not.
So, do your back & home button stop working randomly for about 10 seconds?

I do not have phone, but as I read not only in this forum but others, use screen protector will cause problem for these button.
If you arwe in same situation better to remove protector and see is it still there.

Yes I had the same problem and it now seems to be fixed after removing the screen protector. It's a bumber as I never use a phone without protecting the screen !!!

I've got a spare so I might cut off the lower portion covering the two buttons. Hope it's a simple fix!

Yes, using official screen protector.
Not willing to take off the screen protector, but the intermittent nature of the issue suggests it us not an issue with the screen protector.

I've managed to cut off the section covering the buttons in hope it'll make a difference

Anyway it is a problem if use screen protector will cause it.
Anyone not use HTC screen protector but other brand has no problem? Or has same problem?
If the problem happen with any kind screen protector then it is serious.

It's happened to me on many occasions and I've not got a screen protector on. But it works normally most of the time. When it doesn't I just lock and unlock the phone and the buttons start to work again. I'm unsure if it's faulty or not.

According to htc's customer service rep it's a known issue with the sensitivity of the buttons that will be fixed in a coming update.

I am also not using protector and have the issue
Not only button but some time the other part of screen also daily to response
E.g. I notice when I call using Skype it takes 2 to 3 second for call to start after I press the screen
I hope it is not hardware issue and they release an urgent fix or update.
Thanks

Contact them on twitter, they generally get back to you within a day, see what they say.

Also that sounds more like an issue with the app, I had similar problems with some apps on my galaxy s2, as well as on my One. Could be wrong though. If you do contact them please report back to here, id like to know if its a hardware or software problem too.

Unfortunately having the same problem and the phone store and htc are acting like it's my unlocking of the bootloader fault.
Can we say for certain it's a software issue?
I am kind of stressing out over here :-\

I have a newer batch and don't have the issue, sense 1.28
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Get my new one today, people go on about the build quality, it's been overheating, dead pixels, flickering of the screen on the keypad, poor home buttons, scuffs and sharp corners from the metal overhang for me.
If this one sucks I'm just gonna exchange for a GS4 upgrade instead.

I am also on sense 1.28 actually 1.28.401.7 to be exact.
It doesn't happen often and if it's only software then I couldn't give a crappie but I am a but worried that it's a hardware issue.

Edit:
It's back again after sometime. So, raised RMA. Let me see how it goes.
Seems after disabling power saver & enabling haptic feedback, the back button issue hadn't come yet. Just coincidence or fact I'll update after testing further

[EDIT - no barometer on H1 duh!] Anyone find a working barometer app?

I haven't found an app in the market that displays my htc one's barometer reading properly, or at all really. Is it just me?

I was not aware the One has a Barometer (you mean a barometric pressure sensor?)?

Yes, that's what I meant.
Well, that would certainly explain it, if it doesn't have one!
So it doesn't? Maybe I've been reading too many s4 vs h1 articles where it listed the s4 as having a barometer but didn't comment on the h1.

It doesnt have a temperature sensor

Yeah, I have heard about that proximity sensor problem happening on some 4.2.2 based ROMs. There was a fix for it some where, I am pretty sure.

Proximity Sensor Not Working During Calls?

When I pull the phone away from my face to use the keypad or switch to speaker or end the call even, the screen doesn't turn on. I turned off just about all of the motion sensors in settings would that have something to do with/affect the proximity sensor?

Screen protector?

Try factory reset. If I t still does it exchange if possible.

Is anyone else experiencing poor proximity sensor behavior during calls? Proximity works great during sensor tests, but fails to turn screen on/off during calls correctly. Problem is identical across 3 seperate Note3 devices I've tested and oddly I get the exact same issue on Galaxy Mega.

Mine works most of the time. Every once in awhile it flakes out. Same on my note 2 but it was very very rare on note2. I am possibly thinking it might be these cases with fatter lips I've been using since there is so little choice for a great case. My diztronics tpu is awesome but sadly it doesnt fit proper with wireless charging cover and I ruined it trying g to mod it.
sent from my sm-9005.

I'm not using a case, screen protector, or anything. Exchanged my device and a few days later the proximity sensor is failing 100% of the time during calls. It works flawlessly for everything else...just buggy with stock dialer.

Maybe an app that is causing chaos. I had a speakerphone app bork my proximity sensor sensitivity.

Mine annoys the **** outta me, as soon as I make a call, phone in had, on table wherever it may be the screen turns off.

With this many people having issues with it, it might be an app that's causing it because testing shows the sensor works right?

I had the same proximity sensor issue on my first brand new N3. I think it was faulty from the start. when doing the sensor test, the screen would light up when you place your hand over the sensor, and stay light up when you move it away.
I even reset it to new a few times with the same problem. I got tired of the problem and did a warranty exchange. The new phone works as is. I also went to my local BB where they had a Samsung booth and tested all the N3s they had there. None of them had the proximity sensor issue. I believe it's a hardware problem.

Wow.
Man I'm having this problem also!

I had the same issue and requested an exchange from ATT. So far so good on the new one. Very frustrating issue!

I am having this same issue. Besides that and super high temps I honestly don't think this phone was ready to come out.

There's a separate setting in the phone app to turn off the screen during calls, and it's set on by default (I think). Could that be interfering with the sensor?

No, that's the setting to activate the proximity sensor during calls or not. Turning it off deactivates the sensor. Then you manually can turn your screen on and off during calls.

What else do you have installed? Any xposed mods? What FW version are you on? Have you tried it from stock? Just curious. I honestly do not have this problem.

My phone was also doing this. I realized that if anything was hooked up to my bluetooth my proximity sensor would not work when I put my phone to my ear.

What could be killing my battery so quickly?

It seems that Android System uses a really high amount of battery, and I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas, or would know how to find out.
My battery lasts around 5 hours anymore, doing the same thing I used to do when it lasted 17+.
Any help would be super appreciated.

Why are you on JB? What setup are you using? Also, a screen shot from Wakelock detector would be appreciated.

I'm rooted stock 4.3. I just didn't really like the update from it, so I went back to 4.3.
I was fine til about a week ago.

I noticed that on 4.3, yeah, the phone radio was the biggest consumer of battery, butconsidering your usage, perhaps screen usage should be greater. Regardless, you're getting 4SOT/23.5SBY which is far better than I'm getting (2.5/14) on KK. lol
If you think about it, if nothing is waking your device, the phone radio is the only thing using power during sleep. So I guess it makes sense.

How about this? Supposing it has to do with the end of charge mechanic of the cpu, but it's worth a check.
Perhaps the battery is just going bad, after a year?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app.

Any other ways I could see what's causing such a drain on the battery? I fear pretty soon keeping it plugged in won't even give it charge enough to stay on.
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app.

Or maybe something about this may help figure it out? I put it in Airplane Mode while charging and it didn't seem to make a difference in the rate at which it charged.
Could that possibly narrow down the cause?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app.

I just picked up the phone and started using it to read my Blinkfeed, and the battery suddenly dropped by a percent or two before it began charging again.
It's acting so strange.

That google play services drain though... Try installing the Amplify module for Xposed.

I supose reflash soft, then freeze google services in tb, and unfreeze omly when they are needed. Maybe it will help

Well that's a bit extreme. You need Google Services for a lot of things, and that app is central to the android experience.
That's not to mention all the FCs he could get.

I find the phone stutters quite a bit too. Like freezes for a few seconds then carries on with what I'm doing.

tbh it's hard to tell. I would say do a TI backup and flash something fresh. If you like JB, I think viper 3.5 is good for you.
You could also try calibrating your battery. I did it, and it seems to have had, at the very least, a slight placebo effect .
