How does the phone move about so much in your pocket that it gets to slide the Answer Call button?? You need new pants bro
I'm impressed of forum.xda-developers.com , I need to say. Really not often do I encounter a phorum that's each educative and entertaining, and let me inform you, you have got hit the nail on the head. Your concept is outstanding; the difficulty is one thing that not sufficient people are speaking intelligently about. I'm very blissful that I stumbled throughout this in my seek for something regarding this.
It's not sliding it's touch for some reason

Touching doesn't answer calls. To answer phone calls screen lock you have to drag the Answer Call button. So you probably have the screen on while in your pocket.
It's not drag for my HTC One don't know why would I require to lock with pass?

Nope, I don't have any lockscreens active. Mine is touch to answer only when the screen is on and unlocked, other wise I have to drag the Answer button to the middle to answer.
Don't know why even if i touch in the slightest it accepts call

You are certain that your homescreen is locked when you answer the call? Maybe record a video of you receiving a call?
Yup iam sure it's pretty irritating

How did it fix itself? What was the issue?
It was that I had in the accessibility made touch and hold delay short so that was the problem. Now I have made it normal

I tried to change the touch and hold delay option to medium or even long, but nothing happen since this problem still made me crazy a lot. Does anyone else have the same problem with me that just tap anywhere on the screen to answer or end call in some case without slide the answer icon, I'm so crazy because most time I put my cell phone in the pocket.
I also had the problem but was fixed.

It will be my pleasure if you can show me how to fix this problem, I tried with some modification in accessibility option but nothing happened. I think that many other people have the same problem with me and be waiting for your help.
firstly in accessibility make it long touch and i then am using a cover.Other options could be rooting and going to a different rom but i would never root my device but,if u are into rooting then u could try it.

Yes I have that same problem and find it extremely annoying. Same with unlocking it..just the slightest touch on the screen anywhere and it unlocks. Might as well not have a lock screen if its that easy 2 unlock. I want to have to slide the lock icon up to unlock. For answer/decline call its just touch answer or touch decline, no sliding anything. Id prefer the sense 4.1 lock screen with the ring
EDIT: Has nothing to do with short/long touch. I found that turning off accessibility services solves the lock screen problem. Don't know about calls yet. Haven't tested that. Only the lock icon would move, now they all do as they should and just touching the screen doesn't unlock it anymore. Have to slide up to unlock as it's suppose to be

Thank for your quick reply. Firstly, I found that changing the touch delay option in accessibility become longer does not change anything.Secondly, I do not really want to you cover since I used the 1st cellphone until now. Therefore this problem is hard to fix until root my cellphobe. But the same with you, I think that I do not need to root my phone for this stupid reason. Just like you guys, I just hope HTC also quickly realize this problem soon and give some fix bugs in the next update. Anyway, thank for you help!

Hi, can you show me how to turn off the specific accessibility service which related to screen lock option? I looked for this option in accessibility but I did not find it. Thanks!

Hey guys!!
So i'm a proud owner of the white international version of the Xperia Z, but there is a problem that I've noticed with the phone!
When i make calls, and the other end picks up, phone screen turns black, I try and turn the screen on with power button and no luck, the screen is unresponsive and does not turn back on until the other end hangs up!
Glitch in the software? Anyone else by any chance?
BTW phone is rooted
Dial *#*#7378423#*#* and check if the proximity sensor is working.
Sent from my C6602 using xda premium
Thanks!
just dial that number, i went to service test and i presume proximity switch (no proximity sensor) and on the screen it says 'Proximity switch ON' and made a beep sound
So, by any chance has anyone else got this problem? Please help

Yes I did! I never thought the spigan glas.t would be the cause!
I've been giving my headaches thinking about this!
Guess the solution is to either remove glas.t or the proximity sensor app.
Thank you both for the advice and help

Yeah I did that nothing happened, I think it's what pvilla mentioned above with the screen protector.

cover the 2 sensors on the top left with a piece of folded paper or something, do they light up?
Ah yes .. I'm sat under a bright light doooh thank you
Thought my home and back was faulty . It sometimes is less responsive than other times (double tap to get multi apps ) but I'm presuming that's a software glitch
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Others are reporting issues with the buttons sometimes not responding, not sure if it's a software glitch, or just a small footprint for the buttons, ie you have to press right on the button and not in the general area if you know what i mean.
Cool I'll relax then and stop worrying my phone is faulty. Big thanks
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I would monitor how you go with pressing the buttons, it may be a glitch, but i know when i'm using mine, i am often off the button when i press it, being used to the One X for the last year, the buttons are further to the edge, so automatically i have been pressing further out than the actual buttons are.
I always turn mine off. Just saying lol

The capacitive area is in fact VERY small. Just barely bigger than the Home and Back icons themselves. Precision touch is required and is why I suspect some think its not responsive

Try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39498430&postcount=7
Seems that the One has very small area of touch for buttons, so probably not software problem.
Turn on vibrate and you will realise how small of an area we have .. seems the way it's been designed and not a bug . Vibrate assists because you know when your missing now don't have the issue

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?
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
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.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
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

Firmware update has eliminated the problem for me. Night and day difference.
Got my replacement phone today. Bit concerned though.
It would seem it's ultra sensitive. If im on the phone and it's in my pocket just waking will hang the call up.
Also. The lock screen. Instead of having to just swipe up. If I just touch the screen it unlocks it. (which is a problem) when trying to swipe across calender entries on the lock screen. Honestly have zero idea why.
Anyone have a similar problem

Seems my swipe to answer takes anywhere from 3 to 5 swipes before it will actually answer the call. Is this an isolated thing or are others having the same issue? Missed plenty of calls because of it.
No issues answering calls at all for me.

I rest my finger on the answer before swiping. Works better That way. Have seen the same issue.

I find this problem on every Android phone I ever owned, touched or played with.
I changed it to Home Button to answer the call,it's a lot better (you can change in ACCESSIBILITY).
Resting my finger on the answer slider for a split second seems to be helping. Kind of annoying that I have to do this on a brand new phone but what can I do...thanks guys
Hold your finger on the answer button until the green ring gets larger, then swipe.

I think this is a pocket guard feature if your phone is facing your leg. Just my two cents. Don't think it can be disabled.

your right on with that answer, there is about a 500 millisecond delay for swipe to answer in order to prevent the accidental answering of a call while its in your pocket/purse/briefcase etc. this can be modified by changing some smali code in the incallui.apk (i believe) but i wouldnt recomend it.
i find my phone calling people from time to time. when i take it out of my pocket. lol.. dont think the feature is helping me t all.
