My wifes unrooted gs5 gets real laggy sometimes and the capacitve buttons won't work at all. Then all of a sudden they spaze out and go through all the times that you hit the buttons. Once that is done they still don't work. Only the home and power buttons work. Also, during this time sometimes the touchscreen doens't work either. The only way to fix is to reboot or pull the battery. Ayone having this same issue or have a solution? I've cleared cache and tried switching to ART already. Same thing happnes.
Thanks

I can't see any similar problems on the forum, so can anyone help?
Yesterday my Kaiser's power button stopped working. In the middle of the day, not doing anything with it, installing anything or changing any settings. I took it out of my pocket and the screen was on with the power off dialog box showing (I normally keep it on standby in my pocket) The power button wouldn't put it into standby, and holding it wouldn't power it down. Intermittently the power off dialog appears on screen, if I click yes the device restarts (doesn't stay off). Everything else seems to work normally still. Soft resetting works normally. All the other buttons seem to work ok. I've tried a hard reset, but that made no difference.
Anyone else have anything like this?

I'm having the exact same problem right now. The power button definitely seems to be stuck. Can't figure out how to unstick it
About a week ago I had a similar problem.
The power button and the photo button stopped working. I couldn't turn the the device off or set it to standby.
Had to soft reset and after that it was ok again.

Well that didnt work! Any other solution?
Is it possible to unmap the power button and map that question to another button???
I'm using a G1 with cyan's 4.2.15.1.
For some reason some of the buttons stopped working:
*Call and Menu buttons don't work
*Trackball wont scroll
And when the trackball is pressed it causes the phone to power off.
I did a search but i couldn't find anything.
Anything anyone could help with? Has this happened to anyone before?
Tried reflashing and it didn't work, next step is a full wipe to see that helps.
Might be a hardware issue, but I have my fingers crossed.
Hey, recently I was just using my phone and it wouldn't respond to any of my touches / screen presses. I tried doing a factory reset (using CM 7 stable), but it still doesnt work. The menu buttons arent working either, but the trackball works fine. If I press REALLY hard down on the screen it registers my input. Any idea what happened or how I can fix it?
Was playing with a phone just last night with a non-responsive touchscreen. Couldn't get past the "Touch the Android to Begin" screen after reinstalling CM7. I found that if I gently pressed and twisted the bottom of the phone around the trackball, the touchscreen would come back. Give it a shot.
Have you ad trouble with this from before? Try installing another rom with wipe
So across all roms including stock and cm based my touch screen will randomly stop working and i am forced to reboot the phone via the little pin hole method unless i am missing a hardware key reset combo? Anyway the screen turns on and everything looks like it works except the fact that none of my touches register at all? How do i fix this issue? Its not a big deal when i am at home with a pin or pencil but sometimes i am away from home and cant reset it...

Well, just hold down on/off button and power up button for few seconds. You will feel a vibration. It will restart
Hold it a bit more and it will switch off with three vibrations.
I guess you should get your phone checked. It seems to me hardware problem. it could be a bug too but chances are slim!
Secondly, try clearing dalvik and cache but I am afraid it wouldnt be of help!

Volume up and power button does nothing for me at all... Also would sony even look at it if im running a custom rom with an unlocked bootloader? Doesnt that null the warranty>?

Just go on stock rom n relock your bootloader. Sony might ask and make sure you say nothing about rooting, custom rom or anything. Just it's not working well should be the answer.
Secondly, try volume down +power for few seconds when phone is on. Even try volume up+down +power for few seconds.
Make sure you hold these buttons simultaneously.
I just discovered yesterday that my power button seem to be not working. Pressing it doesnt lock the screen and long pressing it doesnt bring up the power options. Tried wiping everything and still the issue remains. When I pull my battery and then insert it back the phone boots itself, as if the power button is pressed all the time (even though i can still click it and its not stuck). Ive been using rom toolbox for the power menu but choosing to turn off the phone makes my phone have a screen freeze, all other options work like reboot, fast reboot, reboot recovery etc. Anyone know how to fix this?
Edit: After a couple of days my power button is working again

How did you get it to work? Or did it started working on it's on? Thanks
I've seen that happen on mine, due to a bad USB charge port. Replaced it, problem disappeared.
Any chance your device sometimes thinks it is docked to a docking station?
Inexpensive part to obtain, less than 10 dollars (usd), takes about 15 minutes or less to replace.
In the 2+ years I've had mine, I've gone through 4 of them LOL...I'm hard on charge ports I guess.

It just started working again. When I turned off my phone to place my sim back and it didnt boot up automatically, I knew the power button is working again. Pressed the power button, device booted up and the issue is gone. I dont know if mh device thinks its docked, i dont have a docking station and ive never had problems with my charging port yet.
I've been using my N7000 for 2 years and this thing happened for 3-4 times. The lock button will be like stop working, sometimes it is like being press all the time and the problem will be sorted out by itself. Normally when this happens, the phone will be laggy and will reboot by itself. Is it a common thing for this phone?how do you get your phone fixed Kcube989?
