After I have flashed the CM11 rom, when I reboot the phone and enter into the system, there appears the small circle on the screen and touching operation is just like the touch pad of notebook, it only works where the small circle lies. How to solve this problem?
Press Build Number in settings menu a few times until you enable Developer Options..
Then go to these Developer Options and deselect the line visual touch feedback.

No, the exact problem is that the touch controlling is not the common type. There is a small circle on the screen, I must move the circle to a certain place, then I can touch the screen to enter into apps.

Im working on porting gweedo767's touch recovery to the incredible. I do not own an incredible so i need people to give me feedback so i know what to change. Once i get a good working fakeflash i will release an installable recovery image. If anyone wants to donate to me for me to get my own incredible that would be much appreciated and will make the process quicker.
Here is a youtube video I made of how it works: ------> VIDEO
4 ways to use recovery:
volume rockers
soft keys on bottom of screen
capacitive buttons
swipe gestures (up/down = scroll && left = back && right = select)
This will not install ANYTHING on your phone. It is just a test drive to see what it is like. This loads the files into the ram and runs them from there. As soon as you reboot everything will be back to the way it was. This does not change/alter ANY files on your phone.
I need to know what sort of things i need to change like:
swipe sensitivity
font size
order of soft keys on bottom of screen
anything else......
Please let me know how i can make this better

Here is the link to a FAKEFLASH: --------> http://sk8erwitskil.com/guest/skyrocket/CWMRT/inc/cwmrt-inc.zip (flash in CWM)
There is a known bug in ClockworkMod 5.5.0.4 that long file names can POSSIBLY cause backups to hang. There is a solution/workaround:
boot into recovery
try to make a backup (no matter if it passes or fails proceed to next step)
either through terminal emulator or through adb run the following command EXACTLY:
Code:
touch /sdcard/clockworkmod/.hidenandroidprogress
NOTICE THE PERIOD AND LACK OF EXTENSION.
and it is .hidenandroidprogress NOT .hideandroidprogress __notice the letter "n"__

Hello i tried your recovery and it has a few issues one being major. First off the up scroll button (the one that looks like a house) seems to select items instead of scroll up in the list. Also while on the subject of the buttons imho there a little small, and would look better more rounded, perhaps just putting a ring arround them.
If you swipe to the right on the screen it reboots the phone.
Ok now on to the major issue, it only backed up boot, system, and recovery. It did not back up data, datadata, cache, sd-ext, android.secure, or generate an md5 sum.
Other that that its good. It is not what i was expecting when i tried it. I was expecting to touch on the menu where the options are instead of using softkeys to navigate and select, but i still like this better than having to use vol keys and trackball, great job so far.

It is touch... You swipe to scroll. Swipe your finger up and down to scroll. Swipe right to select and SWIPE LEFT to go back. And thank you for your feedback.
Edit: and also that backup issue is a bug in clockworkmod. You have to put a file call:
.hidenandroidprogress in the /sdcard/clockworkmod/ folder. Notice the period and lack of extension.

Ok i see let me try this again.
Ok now i get it. Lol ok then heres my bug report.
Swipe left and right are way to sensitive. When scrolling up and down if you go just the slightest bit to the left or right, it either goes back or selects an item.
As i said earlier the up softkey selects items instead of moving up in the list.
Also as i said earlier not backing up everything or generating an md5.
Other than that it seems great.

i added the fix to the backup problem in the OP. add that file and itll solve that issue. that is a known issue in the base code of clockworkmod 5.x, im working on making a code fix for that. the workaround works fine for now tho. can you tell me what the "home" "menu" "back" & "search" capacitive buttons do in recovery? that way i can re-arrange the soft keys to line up with the corresponding capacitive button.
im guessing back = go back, search = select, but does home = scroll up or scroll down?
thanks

Home scrolls down, menu does nothing just vibes, back goes back, search selects. Also the on screen back key seems to select instead of go back like the on screen up key does.
EDIT: actually the menu button seems to go back also. Its hard to tell. I think when hitting home, menu, back, search, it is also picking up my finger slightly moving left or right when i hit it.
Also for the backup fix, that is just creating a file called .hiddenandroidprogress right? That file was already present in my cwm folder before i ever even tried this recovery. I ran the command anyways and tried to back up again but still only boot recovery and system.

ok i updated the file. the soft keys on screen should be fixed to at least be the right keys. im going to re-arrange the order to those of the capacitive once i get to my work computer tomoro. also, i made the left/right sensitivity lower. see how it works.

yes .hidenandroidprogress. what it does is stop cwm from enumerating the file list that it is backing up. if it gets stuck after that then i have to go in and debug the filesystem points i have probably as they are wrong for data, etc.

This is only a bootable test, it changes nothing on your phone. You flash this it temp boots to the touch recovery, and then when you exit the touch recovery you will be exactly the way it was before flashing it. It is not permanent.
Hi,
Not sure if this is bug or not, but all the icons on the Xperia Z are only touch responsive if you press on the upper left corner of the icon. (except for the back, home, task keys)
If you press it like you normally do (in the middle) it will show you the animation that it's pressed-in but will not do anything else.
And press-hold on the icon will jump to the add home screen pane.
I'm on the latest firmware build .434, the only way I could fix this; is to reinstall to its original state via SUES.
Anyone else experiencing this, or know more about this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, indeed I did disable all the animation scales!
Because I didn't needed them, thougth it might speed up 0.01%
Anyway since restoring I haven't disabled those functions and the bug hasn't occured anymore. :fingers-crossed:

The phones no longer have a menu button, developers will need to update their apps to incorporate a menu into the UI. For apps that haven't done so, you may see a black bar across the bottom of the screen that will open the menu.
However with many of the replacement roms/kernels, alternative methods have been provided. In the case of the rom you linked, try tapping just above the HTC logo on the bottom of the screen. You want to be aligned horizontally with the logo, and just barely tapping on the screen itself.

Thanks very much all!
I looked at a lot of threads already and can't seem to find a solution. Looks like someone messed up the settings on my touchpad and I can't get the three soft keys and taskbar on the bottom to appear . The button on the top right to go to the app menu is gone also.
There is no way to get onto the setting menu unless I restart the touchpad and use the "low battery" button to get to Battery on settings. Is there anyway to get onto the setting menu with no soft key / app menu ? If I can just access the setting without restarting every time can I can try to fix the problems.

Not really sure what you mean by you can only get into settings with the low battery button. But there is an app in your app drawer called settings that takes you to the settings. Also, you could have expanded desktop on so long press the power button and see if you have the option there. If not go into settings and then "system" and look at your expanded desktop options.

Hold down a finger on the home screen, then go into Launcher Settings, see if you can enable the Dock. May have been disabled by mistake.
If that is not available, go into Apps and then access Settings from there.

like all nexus devices and on screen keyboard devices, in 4.0 there was a button on the apps which acts as the menu button (its called action menu or something), you only need to look for 3 vertical dots or play with the apps.
the facebook app have its settings on the left tab at the end of all the crap, there you can find the settings

Yup but in messages u cant delete conversations caise no action button.
Seriously whats the use of 2 button with basically of the same function. The home and task bar button
Should be integrated in 1 button only home button one press then long press brings the task manager.
So is it the same with all launchers?

in the messenger app and in the facebook app, you need to go to the messenger section (facebook app) long pres the conversation and then an optional menu will appear.

It's the same with all Android devices that use stock or close to stock above 4.1. The real blame is with poor and lazy app development of which Facebook is a good example.

Honest question. What makes a physical button "essential" for this, and an onscreen button (depending on the browser, that will be either on the navigation bar, on the rightmost part or on the title bar, besides the tab button) not fit? Specially when pressing either of them will have the exact same effect?
Yes, I was used to the TouchWiz way on my previous phones, and I thought that having the menu button fixed on the same position all the time was the only way to do so. Now I see that (a dedicated physical menu button) the same way as I see the fixed menu bar on Mac OS: it has some nice points, but overall it's a waste of good space. Note that the Android application design guidelines asks for an onscreen overflow button (the three dots button). Some manufacturers change the behaviour to remove the onscreen button and assign the same function to a physical key. Some developers screw up the design in epic fashion (Facebook). But there's no way around it: the onscreen menu button is how Android is meant to be, at least since the last major overhaul on ICS. Anything other than that is either a manufacturer's attempt at "differentiation", breaking the expected design of apps, or an app's utter failure to adhere to a very simple set of rules.
