Keyboard every do this? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone else's keyboard every do this?
See attached
Stock locked bootloader not rooted.
I see it often as I am typing, this is the first time I've been able to grab a screen shot of it. As soon as I press anything the keyboard returns to normal functions

specifically looking to see if other have the same issue with the default stock keybaord.
It is random, and of course I have tried the normal trouble shooting steps.

Sliding pages cause pull back

Don't know how to put this, whenever I slide pages on my nexus 7, the page pulls back. Removing widgets seems to make it better. Anyone else having this issue? Sorry if this thread already exists. If it does can you direct me?

You are welcome !
But still weird that only few people have this issue ?
What rom and android version are you running ?
I am running rooted stock 4.2 with multi-user (GF^^).
To recap i have got the problem with :
- go launcher hd for pad
- nova launcher
- stock launcher
on the other hand no issue with go launcher ex.
I must add that i feel the UI very heavy.
when i am web browsing, pinch to zoom is not as reactive as on my one X.
Same thing about scrolling over a page.
Are you guys experiencing this aswell ?
I have this issue, and its VERY annoying.
I on the other hand, DON'T THINK ITS AN ISSUE! I think this is just normal.
The only reason we notice it, is we have devices that are much more responsive.
I have a HTC One X, and can literally flick the screen and it goes where I want it, the Nexus is more of a drag than a flick.

Same for my S3 vs. the N7.
This could probably be "fixed" if the Lauchers were able to distinct a "flick" from a "swipe". On the phone I touch much more pixels with one flick, than on the tablet , due to its smaller screen.

I agree with what you say, but it seems there is a problem with the inertia.
Look at those screenshot https://www.evernote.com/shard/s64/...33f1f9e7d013/dd9030c957c51b5f1bc1fee19803038f
You'll see that the purple line go back instead of going straight. It acts as if the screen was too sensitive and was taking into account the fact that you lift your finger off the screen.
If you have an android phone, try to swipe with trace enable. You'll notice that the purple line go straight as it should.
For me at least on my one x, the pruple line (inertia) go straight and i have no problem when swiping through home screen.
Edit : Just to let you know. I have tried Apex launcher and it appears there is no "pull back" problem. Actually it is luquid smooth^^
I don't think it is a problem of launcher, as you can see on the screenshot I was not on the home app that the launcher is, but in chrome.
It happens no matter what app you are on, as I think it is either related to software or hardware.
But I must admit I feel like it is hardware.

Sudden reboot issue thread/kmsg dump

Those who have the sudden reboot issue please get a kmsg of your boot process
su
cat /proc/kmsg > /sdcard/last_kmsg
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wait a 60 seconds then close window and upload, do this as soon as you boot. We need also a last_kmsg of the reboot issue if one is created (sometimes it isn't). For this just copy /proc/last_kmsg and upload after the reboot happens, if it doesn't exist then it wasn't created during your reboot. My friend @laufersteppenwolf is working on a fix for this, he thinks its due to bad sources, he already has my logs but some additional "testimony" might be helpful
The boot log is not required, only the log, recording the crash

Thanks mate, I'm gonna get my replacement tomorrow, if it still reboots I know how to reliably reproduce it. Kmsg sometimes gives different stuff, no pipe error, system bin files not existing, and sometimes no error at all. The games Modern combat 3 and 4 frequently cause this reboot, my favourite games seem to be the "control" here, damn seriously big thanks here, you don't even own the device!

Which superuser app do you use? After switching from supersu to clockwork su reboots seem to have stopped. But sometimes they don't happen for a while. What I'm gonna do is use the app "root logger" to trace shell activity, maybe something I use is accidentally issuing this command, because it does it like terminal does it.

New from three, only a month in, they gave me a second one, still happens sometimes. The new .142 firmware helped, now it only seems to happen with < 35% battery, so I think it relates to that. You said you had some shutdowns on low battery too right? I think on the previous firmware something really intensive like playing modern combat 4 online caused some sort of power failure, on the new one its only unstable once the battery is low. So its bearable now, once my battery is that low I tend to recharge
Sent from my LT30p using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I am affraid that the battery in T is big fail. It is not normal, to have such big drop in voltage (in li-on battery) on heavy load.
In full load, the voltage drop can be about 300 - 400 mV, which means when you have 3,6V (which could be around 40%) and the battery drops to 3,2V, that the phone shuts down. Android probably doesn't know that, because it isn't stable 3,2V so there is no notification.
Install Cooltool, go to advanced, custom label path, write there "/sys/devices/platform/msm_ssbi.0/pm8921-core/pm8921-charger/power_supply/battery/voltage_now" and select labels, custom label.
Watch the voltage when playing.
I already ordered new battery, so I will test it with new.
Btw what is the capacity of your battery? There are two - 1850 and 1780 mAh.

New features and fixes in 4.4.3 (Battery life, UI, reboots, bugs discussion)

I just installed 4.4.3. This thread is for discussion of all things 4.4.3 related to Nexus 4.
I've attached a picture of the new dialer.
1. Dialer
2. Radio awesomeness: Wi-Fi connection established much faster than before. Remember how some networks couldn't be found easily? That's gone as well. When you turn off Wi-fi, cellular data connects in less than 3 seconds.
3. Shutting down takes longer than usual.
If you can't wait for OTA anymore, here is a way to install 4.4.3:

The stock flashlight toggle or a separate app? Im thinking you may need to just let it cool for a while. Using the camera LED for long periods of time aren't a good idea as they can be damaged (from whatv I've read before)

Yes, but you should flash factory, and relock. Follow the guides in the sticky roll up thread in the general forum.
