I'm using Mi9. I did the MIUI 11 update and there are two big problems. First, the top notification area has shrunk almost twice, shrinked. Secondly, once you press the AI button on the left, the screen wakes up. Is there a solution to these problems? If not, how to downgrade

Hey all,
A few days ago, I bought a secondhand nexus 6. I've noticed some burn in (navbar) and I tried this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tinyroar.amoledburninfix. The last 2 days I've let it run around 2 hours in total. It looks like it does help wear the pixels evenly. But I've also noticed, this evening, that if I do the test mode (gray screen) right after the "fix mode", the navbar ghost is almost gone. But if I run the test mode after normal usage (so when I don't use the "fix mode" for a while" I see more navbar ghosting. So what can explain the difference? Is the navbar ghosting that I see on a grey background image retention? Does it mean that the screen isn't that much affected with burn in because I don't see the navbar after using the "fix mode" (invert colors)?
Also, when I use the grey screen mode, it looks like I see the "ghost" of the clock in the right upper corner. The thing is, I can see the hour and minutes that where shown on the screen last minutes before testing with the grey screen. Does that confirm that this is image retention?
I'd like to hear your thoughts

I don't quite understand this issue as well. I bought my Nexus 6 brand new. I have not had it for quite a full month yet. I am already seeing "burn in" / "image retention" / "ghosting" from the Nav bar mainly but the status bar as well. I can only notice it in the "Amoled Burn-in Fixer" app when on the test burn in grey screen. I can not notice it anywhere else. Every once in a while I will turn off adaptive brightness, max out brightness, and run the "fix" for about 15 minutes. It literally disappears / fixes it. However, a few days later, it comes back. This is why I just run it once a week or so. I feel it will help even pixel wear, and it appears to be working overall.
This seems to be a VERY common problem on the Nexus 6. Remember, Samsung is the only manufacturer of AMOLED displays. I am assuming that their quality control department has different grading for their panels. Highest they keep for themselves, second they sell, third they throw out? Also, I have heard that burn in is much less common on the Samsung S series and Notes which also feature AMOLED displays. This is due to Samsung featuring a home button and capacitive buttons on each side of the home button. (no nav bar) Also their status bar is usually transparent. It seems to me that Samsung is well aware that AMOLED panels are subject to burn in / image retention and they kind of stay a step ahead of it by having buttons rather than a nav bar and the transparent status bar. Also if I remember right, their status bar symbols and numbers are a light blue rather than white, which is the color that is the hardest on AMOLED displays.

Try using the app to "fix" the burn in and check it directly after in the test mode. Then just use your phone for a few min and test it again. Do you also see the difference after a few minutes already? This must be image retention, right? So does that mean that the screen it's "normal state" is right after the "fix mode"? And the ghosting you see after a few minutes is just image retention?
Hello,
I faced a weird problem on my z3c which I only noticed this morning.
the notification will not expand when i swipe from the top :crying:
- i can get it to work at only 1 time every 30 or so swipes.
- i only noticed it now because i couldn't expand the notification when I'm in an app. I had nova launcher pro's gesture support to expand the notification when i swipe down anywhere in the homescreen which hid this problem from me.
- I've had the phone for only 11 months and it has been in a glass screen protector and a silicone case with a front lip. tallest it fell was from 3 feet and that is only rarely.
- works fine in landscape.
- swipe up from bottom works since i can launch google now
- i've yet to find a way to rotate the screen 180 degrees to test it from the bottom.
- i tried the stock launcher and it has the same problem.
Anyone faced the same? my last resort is to factory reset but I wont go into that much trouble and I don't want to send it for warranty as that will probably take a week. But I'm concern that it will be harder to sell the phone later on...
I am facing the exact same problem on my z3c
Did you find any solution?
Hi, no still the same. It is only a little inconvenience for me so I wont bother to get it fixed or reset my device.
Same here. Maybe it is an issue because of the update.
you can do 180 rotation in Nova launcher, labs menu.
To test if you want.
I ran the touchscreen diagnostic test and found that indeed my finger doesn't register within the 2-3mm of the screen when i swipe down from the speaker area. a tap is also not registered 40% of the time if I tap within the 2-3mm from the start of the screen at the top of the phone. weird.
I have not yet factory reset-ed and my warranty has already expired. I will just bare with it.
Swiping left and right is at times flaky.
When performing touch screen test (*#*#6484#*#*) it shows up as "Prs: 1" constantly.
Does anyone else have this issue?
Running 7.3.10.0
Please help to test your device if you have one, i want to know if it is a hardware issue or software.
Thanks.
I can confirm that Xiaomi Mi 5s 3GB 64GB Golden version with Global 8.0.3.0 MAGMIDI Stable has this issue, the touch screen is not reliable, sometimes we try to swype horizontally and it understands a vertical swype, in other hand, it also happens that you touch the screen at one point and it thinks that you were holding the screen on that pointing, popping out a holding option.
I reported on Xiaomi's official forum, it's good to report there in order to get their attention.
Hello, really new to this thread. My Mi 8 is about 2 weeks old. So recently I noticed that the home button gesture doesn't work sometimes. I have to repeatedly swipe up from the bottom of the screen for it to work...also when pressing something close to the status bar seems to trigger the status bar opening animation. This happens only every now and then then. I'm on stock global rom everything locked nothing tinkered with at all. Anyone experiencing the same thing?

I'm talking about the home screen gesture.
Try to test if your screen has some issues, I don't experience any problem

You mean using the gesture settings, when you swipe from the bottom it will not go home (takes multiple tries)? If so, do you have a case or screen protector installed? The way you're supposed to swipe is pretty much from outside of the actual display, upwards, so if there is something interfering with this, or you're swiping from in the display, it may not work.
If not, then try using a touch screen test app such as Touch Screen Test from Google Play (developed by Siriuth). Touch the bottom area multiple times (swipe down, left, right, but not up as this may send you to the home screen of course). Swipe slowly to see the path properly. Does it skip at any section? If it does, touch in that area may be damaged. If this phone was purchased used or from a 3rd party seller, this may be why it is damaged.

Just tried it... Everything seems fine. But still sometimes it tends to require several tries for the gesture to actually register. I'm on global 10.2.3.0, could be a miui bug since this version is not the best. Also has battery drain problems. Could be fixed in the next update.

That's very odd. Does the oleophobic coating in that area feel worn or anything? Does the friction feel high? Mine never fails, not even to open the multitasker. Do you have "Double Check for Gestures" enabled? Try turning this off perhaps? The battery drain I definitely agree. I went from 7 hrs of SOT to less than 5.

Hi,
currently I am on the microg build from lineageos 16 (android 9) and really enjoy my redmi 4x ever since.
But recently my hardware buttons on the bottom (navigationbar) started to get crazy. Most of the time there are random clicks on "back", "home" or "open apps" and you get thrown out of apps. Other times the buttons do not work at all. Then a reboot often does the job, but not always.
So I decided to just get rid of them and use the onscreen navigation bar. So I deactivated the bar, but they sometimes do work nevertheless. And even worse, my problem with self clicking buttons still remains, even if it's less frequent.
All of this started a few weeks ago and I did not change anything on my phone. So I assume it's some sort of Hardware issue?
Any idea is welcome to fix it and I will keep my redmi 4x happily
Thanks
I'm having same issue but on my phone it just isn't working at all anymore. I just enabler gesture navigation and at least I can use back gesture, but it is really weird
