[Q] Wifi issue - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My father's HTC one recently started to malfunction as he can't turn wifi on. If you push the on button it just goes to a more stale black but stays off. Bluetooth and the other functions all work well so I think it can't be a hardware problem. When you swipe down with two fingers on the home screen to go into the options the wifi logo is also flashing. I will upload pictures if it isn't clear what I am trying to say.
Thanks in advance.

Can't switch off Kaiser

Hi,
strange thing:
When I push the power button, the device remains on.
When pushing and holding for a couple of seconds,
the message comes up that I might loose data,
if I switch the device off completely.
Obvoiusly the button works fine.
Any hints how to get Kaiser back to sleep mode?
Thanks
v
PS: Have hard resetted the device.
It's back to normal now, but the problem might reoccur...
i had this happen to me after installing and uninstalling nyditot virtual display (they said wm6 not supported). i also had to hard-reset to fix it.

[Q] Battery died and now screen too dim

I have searched the forum, and Google and AndroidCentral and haven't been able to find a possible solution to my problem. I am hoping someone here can help.
Phone HTC Vivid
The battery died last week and every since then the screen is so dim I can barely see it. It will charge and hold a charge all day, everything else works fine, vibration works, I just cant see the screen unless in a dark room.
Never done anything to alter software. I did replace the LCD screen, digitizer and motherboard about 2 months ago. All has worked fine until the battery died.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Did you try to turn up the brightness in settings?

Yes that was the first thing I looked at. I really think it is a software issue since the phone works perfectly otherwise. Vibrations, calls, text, browser, apps, etc everything works. I would like to try doing a hard reset to return to factory settings to see if perhaps if it is a software issue this might correct it.
I don't know how to do this on an HTC so any help is appreciated.

Go into settings and look under storage i believe
You can boot into HBoot by completely turning off your phone holding the down volume button the pressing power at the same time then factory reset there.

[Q] Problems with buttons home and back

Hi, i've got a problem with the Home and Back buttons. Sometimes when i double-click the home button becomes locked and i have to lock and turn on the screen for it to work
Is this problem normal? I've got a screensave and i don't know if that can cause it
thanks

Take a look at what you installed prior to issue showing up, if it was the screensaver then remove the screensaver to see if the issue goes away. If it did then it is your cause, if not what else did you do the phone. Don't forget to reboot the phone after each step to clear out any caches or residual programs.

Screen not working after some minutes

Hi everyone I've got a big problem with my wife's Mi 5. After some minutes/hours of usage the touchscreen stops working and the only solution the make it work again is to reboot the phone (by keeping the power off button pressed).
I've tried some rom (MIUI stable, MIUI dev, Paranoid Android 7.3.0) but all of them have the same problem, someone has got the same issue?
I think it's not only an hardware problem because the touchscreen works most of the time... Any ideas?
I'm having the exact same problem with my wife's Mi5 too. I thought she was talking rubbish until I started using the phone full time over the past few weeks.
Symptoms:
Screen switches on and accepts one touch event.
Screen is then unresponsive to touch events.
All other buttons (home, power, volume) all work OK.
All functions work OK (calling, SMS, etc) via remote control (MyPhoneExplorer)
Screen then becomes responsive again after reboot
Tried so far:
Clearing dalvik/cache
Clean flash - using MiFlash and China dev ROM
Opened phone, cleaned all ZIF connections and reconnected.
It almost feels like something in the touch firmware or driver crashes and does not reconnect - as the phone is clearly usable save for the touch panel.
I'm going to ask Bruno/bgcngm and see if there's anything I can do to try and diagnose the issue.

In my case unresponsive screen to touch events, all phisical button works and the only option to make it works again is to reboot. I didn't try to use it with some "remote" control.

I didn't try to open the phone, but I installed all roms with TWRP and format data/wipe cache/dalvik before.

Well on my old mi4c i had similar problem. I mean sometimes when i pressed power button and tried to unlock it screen didn't work. For me solution was simply to press power button again to turn off screen and then turn IT on. Maybe this will help u. Have u try that ?

Do you think it's something related with Doze or standby? I think so because today (and yesterday and so on...) I wasn't able to turn off the wake up alarm (the phone was in standby with the screen off all night) with "the screen" but I have to force restart the phone with the button... and it's very annoying.
Maybe we can try with some Marshmallow ROM instead Nougat one.

I'm facing same issue.I've changed my display panels but it doesn't solve my problem.it is quite painfull.i don't know what should i do.
any update sir?
My MI 5 has a different issue. There is no response if I place the phone on the table, but it is fine if I held it. It seems the touch panel is only responsive when the sort of sensors that a human is holding the phone. I have no idea why it starts to happen in these weeks. This symptom happens even in TWRP, so I don't think it is related some particular ROM. Tried firmware 7.7.6 ~ 7.9.22 with no luck.
skip lock screen
Hi
I know I am late to the party, but just faced the same issue yesterday. To bypass the issue, follow the following steps
1. Restart your phone .
2. Enable developer options from about section in settings. (google enable developer options for specifics)
3. In developer options, there is an option to skip screen lock. Enable that.
4. Voila!!
Hope it will help other mi5 users..
Hi,
I had the same problem. I found this video and I tried to fix it. It worked pretty well. Bye
In a situation that I can't do any service for my Mi5 as of now - is this really loose cable thing ?
Can more folks confirm that this cable solution from above video works ?
exactly same symtoms :
Random screen freeze - only option is to reboot phone or phone goes rebooting randomly itself.

Noticeable delay after pressing screen lock button. System reset does not help.

This issue has been driving me mad for the past couple weeks. I'm at my wits' end and I need some expert help to figure this out. Please read this post thoroughly to understand my situation, as this is not a simple matter of uninstalling some apps.
When I first got my Note 9, the screen lock button worked perfectly. The screen would immediately turn on when I pressed the button, and it would immediately turn off when I pressed it again. However, once I got the Android Pie update, the screen lock button stopped working properly. The screen still turns on immediately, but there's about a 0.5 second delay after I press the button to turn it off. It's a relatively small issue, but it's enough to bother me.
I attempted to fix this by performing a system reset. But this did not help. In fact, this issue is still present even before completing initial setup of the phone.
When you perform a system reset, the first screen you see when your phone restarts is the welcome screen. It contains a "start" button that you press to begin setup. On this screen, the lock button issue does not happen. My phone locks and unlocks correctly. On the next screen, you connect to a wifi network. After connecting to a wifi network, the lock button issue becomes present. In other words, this issue with the lock button is present before I even start using the OS, or install any apps, or really do anything at all. It seems to be triggered by connecting to a wifi network during setup.
So I figured there must be something wrong with the firmware. So I used Odin to flash an earlier firmware version. This did not solve the issue. I even tried installing an unlocked firmware version, on the offchance that my carrier (AT&T) was doing something weird. This did not help either.
I have no idea where to go from here. I thought that a system reset is supposed to completely wipe everything from your phone, so that it behaves exactly how it did when I first got it. But that's not the case. It seems like something is carrying over that's causing this issue. Does anybody have any idea what I should do?
Do you have lock instantly with power key on?

It is probably the double tap power button to open camera feature. You can toggle it off and locking will be instant.
If its already off, there my be an accessibility service listening key presses.

This delay issue is so silly but it annoys the hell out of me. Where did you turn off this feature in Pie?
Update: Found it. Just use the search box in settings and type in "camera" (or whatever it is in your language). The "double tap power" setting will get listed.
Thanks alot,
Watz
I even turned off the double press for camera app but I'm still noticing a 0.5 sec lag when i press the side key
I even restarted after changing the setting
Nothing is happening
Please help
