[Q] Touch Problem?? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm having an issue with my nexus. Sometimes the touchscreen doesn't respond. It goes blank for a few seconds. Only in certain areas. Then it works perfect. Has someone else had this issue? Also noticed that the problem fixes if I lock/unlock the phone.
Thanks,
Kel

Hi,
Do You have by any chance Google sky map installed? If yes, uninstall and reboot.

[Q] Touchscreen and Multitouch Problem

I have a GT-P5113 running the latest CM10.1 nightly.
It seems that when I restart the device, the touchscreen works perfectly. However, when I put it to sleep, or sometimes even during use, the touchscreen responds horribly to scrolling / multitouching. When turning on "show touches" in developer options, the response appears to freeze up while trying to scroll / use more than 1 finger.
Even more interestingly, when the problem arises again, multitouches work fine when using any finger BUT the thumb. It's very hard to play games without using thumbs.
This cannot be a hardware issue because it registers all fingers but thumbs properly. This can't be an issue with my thumb because this works after resetting, only until I put the device to sleep. As for software, this problem existed when I had stock rom and when I had the 02-19 nightly and the 03-04 nightly.

Yes Samsung replaced the mainboard for free. And yes it was like in your video but worse.
I made a Video for samsung to show them the bug. This bug was strange cos it disappeared sometimes after standby.

Do you have that video still? Or can you share it on YouTube?
In Russia, many users were denied warranty with such a problem.

Same issue on my end. I'm stock. I use LN, but it happens when I'm not running the app. Has anyone uninstalled to test? It would be last resort for me due to all of the notes I have.
I contacted samsung and was told the normal wipe system (factory rest ) I have done that before and when asked with the same problem.
The next fix by them was to take it to a walk in centre, my tablet was sent to Samsung in about feb.
So that wont help.
I have seen sum1 say the fault only happens with auto brightness on.
So I will try with this off unless sum1 can say if the fault us still there either way.

Rings Extended - Can't select OK

Does anyone else have issues with Rings Extended? I can't seem to select OK after selecting a file. Cancel button works still, but pressing on OK has no visual feedback nor any action. Tried on gf's Nexus 4 with KitKat and it works fine. I've tried on different roms on my Nexus 5 and it is not working properly.
Bump anyone?

If you are using any kind of screen filter, turn it off.

Oh my thanks! Totally did not think about that. I am using Lux. I guess that was the issue.

[Q] Answering the phone....

All
I'm on the 11,0 xnph33r release and when my phone rings I swipe to answer and nothing happens. I keep on swiping and still nothing. This happens 9 times out of 10. Any idea of what could be causing this?
Cheers

Ive deleted the cache on the phone app. It seems to be working again now.
I spoke to soon its gone back so I cant answer the phone! Driving me mad!
Right I've just found out this only happens when the phone is in deep sleep. Any ideas? Cheers
It seems to be a bug with 4.4.4 and MP3 ring tones. I've gone to a default one now and it works...
Same issue testing with ogg ringtone.

Not general though? Might be something else or some more specific issue, because im using mp3 ringtones and no problem.

Problem "screen pixel"

Hi everybody,
I've Nexus 5 with original rom Android Lollipop 5.01
I've a strange problem and I'd like to know if it is a software or hardware problem.
Sometimes, and only with Facebook app, in a part of the screen appear few pixels and they disappeared when I close the app or I move between tab.
Enclosed an example, I reproduce it in photoshop.
Any idea?
Thank you very much.
Ciao!
Its probably a damaged flex cable. Cheap to replace.

Tky for reply. This appears only on Facebook app, and sometimes.
If cable is damage I think always I had this problem.
And if the problem is the app? It's possible?

Not really sure if it only happens in Facebook then.
I'd say ignore it a bit for now, but if it happens more and in other apps then replace it.

Don't think so, no. Unless you know which exact colors in which exact pixels are causing the issue, which is pretty impossible.

Tky so much for help
This is a bug in Lollipop and has nothing to do with a hardware defect. I get this in several other apps as well. A fix from Google is already on the way and will be released with a next update of Android.
