[Q] Screen Glitches

On Monday, i finally got my nook. However, after flashing CM 7.0.2, I have had terrible screen glitches i.e when i have my hands completely off the screen buttons will continue to get pushed. I have tried to reflash, but I am a newbie so my method of flashing might be wrong.
Thanks for the help!

if it persists after an initial reboot, you probably need to recalibrate the touch screen.
BTW, if you're having the screen bug out on you while plugged in, that's normal.
Anyway, sorry i don't have the link handy, but you can do a search for a touchscreen recalibration app. If you really can't find it after searching, PM me and i'll send you a link to a dropbox with the apk

It's a hardware issue. I had the same issue on my Nook color for a while. At first I thought it was software related due to CM7, but the issue persists even on stock and other roms. I actually exchanges my nook at best buy last night for a new one, and no longer have the issue at all.

Yeah I went back to stock and screen issues persist. Going to exchange it right now, hopefully get a working one this time. haha

I think it is a hardware issue... kinda.
Are you noticing any SD card problems too? I noticed some when my screen was glitching like this. It would show the sd card icon at the bottom (when I didn't have one inserted) saying "SD card corrupt need to reformat."
I bought mine on Sunday and it had the 1.1.0 OS on it. I was already noticing that it was difficult to "unlock" the slide bar because it wouldn't always follow my finger correctly... I think it's a bug in the 1.1.0 software that was factory installed. 1.2 seems to fix that.
For me I fixed it by replacing the 1.0.1 OS, then factory resetting it doing power+N twice (then N two more times), then upgraded to 1.2 using B&N's software.
Then, I formatted /system and /data and flashed phiremod 6.1
It's great now. Now problems at all. You'll still see the "Read forever" message at the beginning but that's ok.
Been using it for two hours without glitches... which is about 1.75 hours more than ever before! I will report back if the issues return.

Well got my new nook after exchanging it, works like a beaut.
hope i just didnt jinx myself.... hahaha
Thanks for the help, appreciate it.

When I put a screen protector on mine it fixed that issue.

Having touch screen issues with my nook, incredibly frustrating. Stock, cm7, phiremod all affected. Going to exchange for a new one today.

We neeed a gummy targa thread

We have been needing a gummy thread for a long time. This will be my first thread start. So. 1/29 has been running very well for me with only occasional black screen, no response. Pull battery issues. Only every now and then. So, today j was happy to see a new build. When I went to install it safe strap said can't open zip error. Failed. Disappointed. Rebooted back into 1/29. Oh well I'm sure they'll fix it. They are great about that.

Also got the red error in safestrap on last build.

Strange. 2/08 is out. but its only 17.3 mb. Not sure if its a mistake or if we flash it then flash 2/07. Guess I ll try that and report back.

Nah, think the last two are junk...not sure there's any changes going on anyway. Probably just bot-builds over the latest aosp base.

Ya saw on twitter that they had issues with oldandroid uploading ROMs. Ours is not the only ROM not complete looks like. I looked at some others and half of them didn't look right. Hope they get it fixed, I really like gummy.

2/10 is 194 mb.

2/10 is good so far. Haven't had time to play with all of it yet but so far its smooth. Tether works, I flashed the cm WiFi fix to be sure.

2/11 so far has the best battery life of any I've flashed lately.

Haha ALL of them! Honestly I flash pa full and liquid and aio slim gapps as well as the cm WiFi fix. So far ts been working great. And I only wipe cache and system since I've been running art.

do you think lmt pie uses the battery in terms of drain, any differently than say a hard coded slimpie?
and when do you convert to ART before or after restoring apps

No idea. Don't use either. And I went to art first and have stayed there. At first I switched back and forth, but now I just use art. Never had any issues but for some lag now and then. But I think it mostly had to do with all the different kernels.

2/15 is great. Has the ubuntu#2 kernel and good battery.

Been a week since last update. Hopefully they are fixin to wow us with another milestone. M.2. I'm ready. Its still the most stable, right along with cm.

Newer builds 2/25 on android hosting.org.

Last two builds have the old wifi bug on first boot...wifical.sh does not fix it,nor does reboot

[Q] Firmware 9.2.A.1.199 is useless!

I've tried several different firmwares. Belgian, Italian, CE, etc. I've done factory rewipes, I've gotten root, I've removed root. Whatever I do, the phone is possessed. It randomly turns off completely or it reboots. Sometimes when using the internet, sometimes when trying to open the lockscreen, sometimes when I simply touch the screen! Anybody having the same problems? Any solutions?

Maybe it's hardware problem? Does it happens on 4.1?

Nope. 4.1 was perfect!

Try to remove your SD card.
If it doesn't work, then try to format internal storage.
If it doesn't work, then make a factory reset and install your app one by one, because there could be one that gives issues with the new system.
Let us know..

Just repaired with Sony Bridge, still reboots even during initial setup. Will try factory reset now.

Have you been back to 4.1 since upgrading?

I did that. Which of your 15 phones is it? I went with Pure-X Blaster for my V. It is pretty similar to 4.3. It's 4.22.
I am a bit surprised. People usually would not have such a tolerance, that was only known for a fruit religion.

Downgraded to 4.1.2 which used to be rock solid...now getting random reboots and shutdowns!

There's something wrong with your hardware
Do you have your bootloader unlocked?

The power control function of the battery is dead on your device.
The reason I asked if you had tried 4.1 since is for me upgrading to 141 last year I had the same issue and so did a lot of others. The T is very prone to this failure, it can happen thorough everyday use but more commonly appears to happen post major update.
Very simple to rectify, if under warranty Sony will replace as they did with me, if no warranty you need to buy a new battery and replace it(plenty of guides on youtube.)

Amazing! Judging by reading various boards and sites, Sony's got a real problem with updates ruining phones! Lots of unhappy campers!

Setting to 3G only solved random reboot on my xv.
It seems that switching from 2g to 3g is the root cause.

Already tried that. I think Wobba-Lee was correct. Somehow the update can fry the battery sensor.

I've had this happen before and found the SIM card had moved slightly. Removing it and refitting it solved the issue.

I had the same random reboot issue with my Xperia V, it only happened when on battery power power, when on charge it worked flawlessly. I Ordered a new battery and has worked ever since.

[ROM][4.4.4][Unofficial] AOKP TF701T [06-27-1014][Nightlies]

Just wanted to share an unofficial build of AOKP for our TF701T's I did for myself.
Special thanks to Team AOKP for their wonderful rom!
Disclaimer: You flash it, you break it, you fix it. I will be update the builds weekly or so as new features are added into AOKP regularly.
Flash the same as any other rom. Use current Banks Gapps.
Known issue: I have enabled the glcomposer in the build.prop because the overall smoothness and battery life is greatly improved. However, because ASUS hasn't updated past 4.3, there may be occasional graphical glitches. You can disable the glcomposer by removing the one line in build.prop containing glcomposer in it BUT do try as it is first and see the difference for yourself. I have been using it for a couple weeks now and the graphical glitches are very small and barely noticeable.
Examples of where to see smoothness include: Scrolling homescreens. Swiping pages in App Drawer. Swiping pages in the widget drawer. Swiping away notifications while on homescreen. Swiping down notifications and quicktiles while on homescreen. Swiping to Google Now page in GEL launcher.

Excellent work. Very fast. No graphical glitches so far that i can see. Lets of options.:good:

It's great to see another ROM option for the tf701t! I just tried this out. The graphics really are quite smooth, and I love all of the customization options. Alas, as with cyanogenmod and cromi, Bluetooth functionality is severely diminished -- a mouse barely moves the cursor at all and a keyboard has severe typelag making it unusable. Any idea what's going on thereand how to fix it? I'm happy to be a guinea pig.

Awesome, glad to see other people trying this out!
I will post weekly build updates as often as possible.

Im amazed how smooth it is. I guess this shows with this tegra4 theres still room for improvement which is a good thing.

It's very nice. The camera doesn't crash, and I the current version of Netflix doesn't crash. With some roms I've had to use 3.0.

So I just remembered I had an old Microsoft Notebook mouse 5000. I connected it and it works perfectly normal.
No lag or delay whatsoever...any chance you have another mouse to try?

Not a mouse, but I had another bluetooth keyboard, so I paired it up and gave it a try. Worked perfectly fine with no typelag :/ The one that doesn't work is a combo keyboard/touchpad. I don't think xda will let me link to a product on amazon, but it's a "tp cromeer" branded case with builtin bluetooth keyboard/touuchpad. Made for the N8000, but it fits the tf701t quite nicely.
Any idea why just this one device wouldn't work?

I actually have a mini combo keyboard touchpad I can try tonight.
My guess is going to be some sort of silly device incompatibility though...

I dont have any problems with this inexpensive bluetooth keyboard.
I do find though. I dont know if its possibly the kernel or android itself or if too many apps are running in the background. Input in general and reponsiveness is lost completely until reboot. It starts to lag all input I think. Like touch sensitivity etc. I wonder if anyone else has found this on to be the case on this device. Not sure if there is some app thatll restore it by killing processes possibly. Another thing I notice is that Android is running tonnes of threads. Compared to the few that run on linux. 600+ on android. Less then 100 threads on Linux usually depending on the distro. This rom right now has 900+ threads showing in htop. But it is still smooth as butter. Maybe thats not a big deal then.

It happens on all roms, but it would be a very subtle thing. I dont see it really as a problem. Just something that requires a reboot.

Yes -- I know exactly what you're talking about I think.
On any ROM I've tried, it happens. A fresh reboot always clears things up, but after running a few apps (and / or putting the tablet to sleep overnight perhaps?) the whole system lags a bit. General stuff, like switching programs and running apps like Tapatalk and Engadget (for example). I'm forced to kill apps manually, and that sometimes does the trick.
One thing I tried out yesterday that seems to be helping -- give this a shot too: in your developer settings, you'll see that you can restrict how many background processes are running. Currently, I have background processes limited to just 2 at a time (and also "strict mode" enabled)... and I have to say, I'm noticing a difference! Might take some more testing to see what the pros and cons of this are, but if it just means that I don't have background processes piling up on me, this might be a workaround?
Aside from that, has anyone tried Greenify with good results?

Honestly guys, I don't see this issue using this AOKP rom...I've left it for a few days no reboot, and I don't see any slowdowns/lag.
On a brighter note, I have a new build ready to be uploaded tonight.
I messed up some merges for battery/charging and was struggling to sort it out the last couple days.
All good now.
New build will be up later tonight.

Hello. I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing studders while using the Note 4. It seems like its mostly the keyboard and in the tw ui. I know this shouldn't be happening with the amount of RAM and 805 processor.

No lag here. Prolly some rogue app you have.

Sounds like trolling to me. There are already approximately 5 other threads on this topic already. You should at least try to participate in one of those instead of starting a new thread.

I have no lag.

Lot of threads on lags....I really wish people would just stay with those threads...even if you are asking the same question, atleast will all be in one place...

I had lots and lots of lag... I unmounted my SD card, disabled the always WIFI thing (not sure what its called).. and lastly I manually searched for tmobile network and selected it.
Then.. NO MORE LAG. It worked for me. so I am really happy now.

There's something wrong with your phone if it's lags on stock. Especially the keyboard. I've had mine for about a week now with no lag whatsoever.
