Problem with screen (unresponsive?) - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have the following problem with Nexus 6 regardless of rom/version/kernel.
Basically the screen's response is fine, but sometimes when I touch point A, it will recognize as point B,
for example,
1. In app drawer, I select an app, that app doesn't open, but another app in the right side (maybe 2-3 places behind) instead.
2. When typing, when I press button "m", button "backspace" is recognized. (right side again)
3. When typing, sometimes multiple touches is recognized even if I just press once.
Switching off the screen and then switching it on again solve the problem every time.
But this is really annoying.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

noisy flics and phone bugs on 2020i...

Hi everybody, my first message here
few days ago i got my new Qtek 2020i... but i have some problems with it..
1) sometimes (expecially when activly using) I hear single flicks(sounding very likly elecric discharges) from device...(even when sound is off)... last time i noticed that it sounded at the moment I quit program and memory it used was released... but sometimes it flics just when standing in cradle.... does anyone have same noisy sounds? or it's damaged device, and I should replace it?
2) I can't close dialing screen... I installed spb plus plugin which makes programs really close when you press X button.. it works, but it refuses to close dialing screen - when i press top rignt corner shortly - it blinks with phone screens I just used(exacly them - if I pressed on "quick call" button, then returned and clicked on history of calls and returned again - it will fastly show that 4 screens in that order) and returns to dialing screen again.... I can exit it only by holding top right corner button for 3 sec's or start button... but it still holds "phone" task in memory(spb plus shows it.... but there is now such task until I use phone for the first time after soft reset) - and if I use phone again - the number of screens I'll see on exit will increase and increase untill I make soft reset.... Of course I can always exit by long pressing the button... but it's annoying, and maybe there is another solution?... is that my software problem? or it's windows bug?
ps thanks for nice forum, I already found a lot of usefull info here =)

Annoying Problem

Hi
I don't know if anyone has experienced this or has a fix for it.
I picked up my Tytn II last week and I must say it's a cracking piece of kit. I seem to be experiencing a problem though.
If I say for example make a voice call and then hang up. I find that the word "phone" replaces the start menu in the top left hand corner of the screen. This wont default back to start and effectively makes the whole top row of icons inoperable. Ie battery status volume control etc. I have found this problem when using other apps, ie calendar, so it's not specific to just making voice calls.
The only way to get the top row of icons working again is to do a soft reset
All icons not on the top row seem to work ok (apart from keylock)
Any ideas ??

Dont soft reset... just hit the power button to go into standby, then hit it again and the device will work again.
Hey presto it worked. Thanks for that. It's a bit annoying having to do that though.

Its not a fix... its just a workaround.
When you end calls. Try first pressing the end call button, then the ok button.

HW buttons not working

Hey guys,
I've got this problem. See, after sliding my fingers across the tabs, checking sms's, turning on wi-fi, and trying to logon to FB using the app I can't lock the device
What happens is, everytime i hold the hw "end" key to lock the device, nothing happens and the instant I let go, my touchflow goes to my "favourites" and if I hit the end key again, it continues going to next tab.
When I hit the "<--" key, it goes to the left tabs in the touchflow.
While doing this the directional and center button work, but the "talk" and "home" button don't work.
The only fix that I know of is rebooting the phone. But on some occasions I have been able to manage to get it to lock again.
Cheers!

[Q] Soft Keys on Facebook

Hi - I wanted to know if anyone has found the best way to configure the keys.
I am using Zeam right now, but if you do this:
1. Login to facebook
2. View pictures
3. your viewing and sliding through them, there is no way to exit out, unless you hit the home button where you are forced back to the main home screen.
Is there a way to get the back hand soft key there or something?
Right now, I am just using hovering arrow from Soft Keys as a workaround.
Thanks!
I found that if you choose to comment on one, then you can hit the back button twice fast. I know its not a perfect solution, but its better than totally exiting the app and re-opening it.

I actually USE button savior, and while I admit it is a great app, it has this problem in facebook as well. Often the back button just does not work. I often have this issue in full screen apps or video. Sometimes enabling "USB Debugging" helps for a bit, but the problems creeps back up. I have emailed dev, but no response.
Program sift keys as your launcher. When i single press the n i get the softkeys many to just go back. Double press lands me at home screen.

It's invariably the USB Debugging disabling itself. I've had it happen twice and both times it has been the cause. I'm pretty sure the second time was due to the 1.1 upgrade (flashed using the zip in the dev forum).
IMHO Button Savior is the app to use. It's much less intrusive than soft keys and works everywhere (when USB Debugging is enabled of course )
Button Savior needs both USB debugging on, and device being rooted in order to function properly(and, of course, being allowed in superuser). I've seen mention of people having issue with usb debugging turning off randomly or with restarts. Once that is fixed, there shouldn't be any problems. My SD build once also lost root for some reason, but that seemed to be rare (prob due to me messing with /system files).

[Q] How to fix hardware keyboard issue? - typing 'a' key selects all text

Hi, I am having an odd sporadic issue when texting, typing with the hardware keyboard. Occationally when I start to type and reach a word with the letter 'a' in it, pressing the 'a' key on the hardware keyboard selects all the text. I have to either back out of the text message and go back in (most of the time this works), or reboot the phone (rarely have had to do this lately, but initally when the problem started, this was the only way to fix it). Is there a setting somewhere that is causing this? Am I accidently hitting a key or key combination? Its pretty annoying, but thankfully doesnt happen that often. My wife has the exact same phone and setup, and has the problem as well.

I've tried every "select" combination I can think of on my D4 to try to reproduce what you are seeing, to see if it's a stuck key or something. The closest I can find is Shift-UpArrow. This will select lines. If your text is less than a single line, this has the effect of selecting everything. Have you ever notice if it happens on multi-line texts? if so, does it select the entire thing, or only a single line? or parts of lines?
I know this isn't much help. But maybe this is a step in "a" direction? lol.

Hehe, it definitely is a step. I cannot remember if it selects the whole thing on multi-line texts or not. I will check the next time it acts up. I can definitely say that I am not accidently hitting shift and up arrow, its for sure just pressing the 'a' key as part of a text message. The frustrating thing is that it does it randomly, and if I'm typing and I hit the a and it selects the whole thing and I dont notice, it of course replaces the entire selected text with whatever letter I type after the a.
Thanks for the help. I have seen this exact problem a few other places (google search), and there have been some replies, but none that have identified the problem, or offered a solution. I am hoping that we can get to the bottom of it. Keep the ideas and suggestions coming!
CTRL-A on most OS is a select all. I wonder if there is a "CTRL" key that can be accessed somehow? and if so, is it stuck, or getting stuck somehow?

I had not thought of the control-a possibility. It definitely is getting stuck, if that is the case, cause it doesnt stop after one keypress, I have to back out and go back into the sms again before it stops.

The CTRL key, as far as I'm aware, is the touch sensitive "menu" button. Is it possible that it's being "pressed" constantly?
Cheers,
Steve.

Ah-HA! Ok, when I turn the phone to the side, if I 'accidently' bump the menu button, the menu comes up (the menu for gosms settings when you're in a text message) and, when i hit back to make it go away, and it does, and I start typing... VIOLA! I reproduce the problem. You nailed it sir. Thanks very much. Now that I know what its doing, is there a way to turn it off, or should I just be careful not to hit the menu button when I go into a text message?
Thanks again!
Popss
Edit: I did notice that hitting the menu button again does not make it go away... any suggestions there?
Mine started doing odd things like this as well as "y" launched YouTube "s" Google search ect..... I just FDR and that was the end...
