Sounds more like the mobo was damaged or perhaps a ribbon connector ie no fast charging.
A failed Li battery can also inhibit fast charging.

I would like to use NFC when the screen is off but this is not possible atm.
I want to use it for sound profiles for example but now I have to unlock the screen all the time wich kind of wastes the NFC advantage for me.
If someone would make a MOD so NFC is always on would this mean the phone will no longer go into deep sleep?

I'm using the NFC.apk from the Xperia Z thread, and it works for me (the only problem i noticed is that the phone doesn't display the NFC icon in the status bar, but NFC still works)
I recently replaced touch screen of my mi3. Everything was working fine. Then recently home button stopped working, it lights up but nothing happens when I press it, no action, no vibration. Other two, menu and back buttons are working fine.
First assuming it was because of latest update, I got into recovery and did full wipe, installed older version I had, and problem persists. Then I noticed home button is not workin even in recovery mode, while other to works.
It must be hardware problem right? it is strange, because home button was working after replacement, then suddenly hardware problem.
or something related to software even system format (yes I formatted both sysem) can't affect is afoot?
Where should I look into if I try to repair it myself (I am located so remote, getting service is out of the question)
In worst case, what app let me set long press menu button to home.
I am using gmd gesture control for the time being. But I don't want another something running in the background all the time. And it is hard to come up with some gesture that wouldn't get in the way while playing etc.
Any idea, thanks

Does screen turn on?
Dragon-tt this is where I bought replacement. You can replace it yourself, but you know my issue.
Around 80$ with shipping.
You might find it cheaper if you look around, but make sure the dealer is reliable.
New mi3 is now 239$ btw.
In case anyone is interested, there is an app called button remapper, but didn't work for me.
I did it by editing key binding file in root/system/usr/keylayout. Not gonna meddle with hardware without knowing what I am doing.
Guess I will just learn to live with 2 capacitive button.
The screen turns on when i press the lock button on the side.

As was mine, you should replace the screen, suggest you buy LCD with digitizer. No other way than to replace it.
Mi3 touch screen
If you go to xiaomi plaza, you can find the Original Xiaomi 3 Touch Screen +LCD Screen Display, and free shipping, the price is just $ 43.
Since I had a replacement for my bootlooped LG G4 H811. After recieving my refurb device I had this problem with double Tap to Wake and the view Glance feature. What really frustrate me is now it will or will not wake with double taping many times, view glance wont work but what is worst. Since probably the sensor is broken it will wake up randomly just laying on the table and any random touch or swipe on the screen would wake it. So battery usually drain while it will just turn on in my pocket.
I'm soooo sad and gave up after testing I can only just confirm it is a faulty Hardware.
My warranty is out. I really don't want to go through it again.( I might get a more faulty device ).
What i really need help with now is : How to disable all features that has any connection to waking the device or any other action that interacts with the screen while off?
I already have turned off the double tap feature using the quickshortcutmaker but still glance view feature is still on which is probably the reason for it to still wake up on the same conditions mentioned up.
I had tried CM ROMs while it only support double tap to wake disabling it from settings will save it from waking up.
But what I need is to fix the problem while on the stock software. For many reasons like having the LG stock Camera App. and a stable OS.
I have limited knowledge, but ithink i need to change settings in the firmware or maybe the kernel . Maybe using Xposed. but I really have no idea how to use any.
Please someone help me. I will really appreciate it.
Is tap to wake screen missing on Oreo? I don't see it in the normal place in the Display settings.
I think it is just missing from the phone and/or in a different spot.
A review notes that Oreo can come with double tap to wake:
http://www.gsmarena.com/android_80_oreo-review-1653p2.php (scroll to last paragraph)
Sony decided to not implement double tap to wake and sleep since XZs and XZ Premium, and recently released XZ1/XZ1 Compact phones follows that trend.
No idea why, it's such a useful feature.
People who don't like/use it can just not enable it, no need to remove the feature that's been a part of their phones since Z2 or Z3 I believe.
This is one of the best features, coupled with double tap to sleep. Useful when you sit your phone on a desk and you don't want to press the power button.
Shame they don't have it anymore.
I guess it's related to the finger print sensor, but agreed, should let people decide. I turned mine off on my Z3C as it kept going off in my pocket.
Damn, that's garbage. I love tap to wake.
Well whatever isn't on stock, a rom will eventually solve, right? That's why we're here.

I'm genuinely curious, why would the fingerprint sensor be related? Double tap to sleep/wake has always worked flawlessly on my Z5C, and so has the fingerprint sensor.
No idea - but I can't see why else they'd disable it apart from some sort of "user experience" rubbish.
Im probably going to return my XZ1 Compact because this tap to wake was used heavily for me whilst at work where i have gloves on. Being able to tap the screen on my Z5C to see my notifications without having to remove my gloves to use Fingerprint made things so much easier. I know they have glove mode, but i really dont like using it, especially when i have stuff on my gloves i dont want all over the screen.
Well done sony, even android Oreo is meant to include this feature, so not only do they remove a Sony festure its users love, they block it out of Android OS also.
Have you tried contacting Sony Support? There is a possibility that it was an oversight or a bug and they'll fix it.
Any updates on this? Any chance this feature could be re-enabled by the experts on here. This is honestly what's holding me up from buying this phone.
Have you already contacted Sony about this?

There's no way this was an oversight. It must've been a deliberate decision for some reason.

Yes and they say on their website it isn't supported on this phone, which is why I was hoping someone here could change that, just as they have re-enabled the fingerprint sensor in another thread.
So, I was playing with Nova Launcher to have at least the double tap to sleep. It works. But the problem is that when I wake up the xperia, I have to swipe the gesture password, touch id is not enough. Of course, no way I do that every time I unlock the screen! Has anybody found any other solution for that?

OK thank God, that actually solved the problem. Well at least I have double tap to sleep. I only hope the lack of double tap to wake is just a software limit and the device is hardware capable of doing it and we will be able to enable it in the future, maybe with root...
How lucky it worked. if we hope that waking up with two tap is enabled soon, it is very necessary
For those that need a temporary alternative, look up Gravity Screen https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plexnor.gravityscreenofffree&hl=en and turn off all the features (uncheck boxes or slider to 0) except for "Turn Screen ON by Proximity". This will wake up the phone to lockscreen every time the proximity sensor goes from something nearby to nothing. so you can tap the proximity sensor to wake the phone, or it will wake up by itself when you take out of pocket.
Hi all,
I had my screen replaced after it cracked when pushing the on/off button. My guess there was something stuck between the button and the screen. Since the screen can't handle any pressure from the side it made a nice clean crack right across the screen.
I had it replaced at the local phone repairshop for €219,-. Luckily my home insurance covered it. The store owner insured my the screen was original as the 8 Sirocco is so rare that there aren't any non-original screens around. I kinda want to believe him, but i'm not sure...
Anyways, my double tap to wake function isn't working any more after the repair. I used several sensor apps to see if one wasn't working properly anymore, but as far as i can see they are all in working order. I hoped that a factory reset would fix it, maybe a re-calibration of some sort, but it didn't...
Does anybody know how double tap to wake works? Is it embedded in the screen, is it via software? Maybe they installed a non-original screen that doesn't support this function? If i know how this function works then maybe i can track down the problem...
Any help would be great!

Is the always on display working?
Double tap to wake can work differently between handsets. The digitizer is kept on in a low power mode on devices that properly support DT2W, whereas most phones can implement a software version of it where the digitizer pretty much stays fully powered on, at all times. That drains battery, hardware support pretty much doesn't.
The Sirocco has proper hardware support, so I think it has to be digitizer DT2W support. Unfortunately that means possibly a dodgy screen. Did it work with the broken screen?
You can buy Sirocco replacement screens from China/Asia on Ebay for around £130. There may well be unbranded goods circling. I have a feeling you might need to return to the store and point out DT2W isn't working and it's likely digitizer related.
You are on Pie, correct?

Yes, i'm on Pie. I think they screwed me over with a dodgy screen indeed. A little search on google revealed you can buy them for €20,-.
It did work with the broken screen, so it has to be a dodgy digitizer. Thinking about calling the shop and see what their response is.
So, i just called them and they basically told me to go [email protected]%# myself... Warranty was only for the screen itself, and with that they mean cracks in the screen. Great service! Kinda bummed out, but it's only tap 2 wake, right? Installed WaveUp, which basically does the same, you just have to wave in front of the proximity switch. Will test if it drains the battery if not, that's kinda good for me...
Unfortunately Android kills the service, even when persistent notification is on. Ah well, will search for someting else...

The digitizer is part of the screen, it's not possible to replace the screen without replacing it.
They've put in a faulty screen. I'd contact your insurance provider and tell them the repair shop they've paid hasn't fixed the phone correctly.
edit: I might actually be wrong with the Sirocco. The LCD and Glass seem to be bonded, but the digitizer can be replaced separately. Either way, the phone hasn't actually been repaired fully, so I'd still contact your insurer.
Thnx for the info, i now know how the double tap to wake works. Unfortunately the insurance company don't care about that. They payed me the standard sum, didn't even want the bill. I have to proof the phone didn't fall and they pay me €250,- and that's it.

Have you gone back to them to advise the repair shop didn't fix the phone properly and what advice they can give?
Not sure what legal suggestions I can make for your country, in the UK I guess you would next look to trading standards/small claims court.
250 euros is more than enough for the repair shop to fix the phone and digitizer.
It would probably be a long story if i would go to court or something. I actually don't mind. Got enough other troubles in my life! :silly:
I can confirm I have the same issue on a Nokia 8 (not Sirocco) after screen replacement. I had the issue with the left half of the screen staying static all the time. The whole repair was a nightmare as the people who I bought the phone turned out to be cheap af. Whatever... I like the brand and the products but next will buy my phone from a reputable (comparebly big) store. Have a nice day!
