I am not sure if whether this is normal or not but lately and for the past few weeks if not 3 months or so if I dont use my Xoom for a while and when ever I go to unlock it by slding the unlock screen to the right , it will decide to change itself into landscape mode, even though I am holding the unit up into portrait mode, it will go ito landscape mode, and its gets quite annoying.
To get back to normal I need to press/tap the Home button, choose the default Xoom Launcher wait for screen to get back into portrait mode than after that go back and choose Nova Launcher. I am using Nova Launher on my Xoom II
So not quite sure whats causing my problem.
Thanks
What rom are you on?
Did you test it with another launcher? I use apex . I never had any problems with it.

My touch screen stop working when I turn the phone upside down.. Not sure if this is the same problem.
Haven't had this happen. I've only had the auto rotate stop working.

Honestly that's a really great idea if it was a feature. Think about it no more accidental answer/deny when pulling it out of your pocket if you put it in upside down. And how often if ever is the phone used upside down. I'm calling for a patent on this one!
I have this issue.
I have this issue and it goes far beyond the keyboard. I will be playing fruit ninja and half the screen will be unresponsive. Its happening quite a bit and I am thinking about exchanging my phone.
Same here
I've been having the same problems but I think it has only happened to me when I use custom ROMs such as Cyanogenmod or Coredroid. When I went back to stock I don't remember it happening.
I was running Coredroid V8.1 a few weeks ago and didn't like it because the font looked terrible but I think the keyboard didn't give that problem, it was with an older version of CD. Right now I am using Cyanogenmod 7.0 and it happens a lot and gets annoying. I now for a fact that is not hardware since the keyboard will work normally on landscape and other stuff will respond to the touchscreen.
Still trying to see if there is some sort of fix or to use a new keyboard. Installed GO keyboard and same thing happened, now using Swiftkey X and it happened also but now I took the protective case to see if that has something to do with it LOL.
edit: disregard.
ive had this problem also for awhile. i dont remember having it on the factory rom, but that was awhile back also. ive had it on every custom rom that i can think of. i used coredroid and cm7 for awhile. right now im using miui. ive tried 3-4 different keyboard at least, and had this problem with all of them. the keyboards accuracy also seems to decline. when switching to a new keyboard the problem initially goes away, but it eventually starts doing it again with the different keyboard.
I would try come non CM based roms as I have seen this come up a few times and the omr thing most have in common is that it shows up on CM based roms like MIUI. I have never had this issue on any sense based rom so that would lead me to think like wifi and Bluetooth that it is due to the non OEM drivers CM uses.
Coreddroid is a sense rom, and I had it back then. I've been using absolution, which is cm7 based, and have not since had the problem. The problem has also been reported to occur on non rooted, stock phones.

Nevermind that, I still have it.
I just realized as of lately that my Thunderbolts Clouds stay on a little too long lately after booting. This meaning I can even "lock" the phone and unlock it to the clouds for about 1 minute. I thought it was maybe a setting on widgetlocker... But after uninstalling it it still has that problem.
The only other thing I can think of is that I recently updated "Launcher 7". Does anyone else have the same problem or should I uninstall and lose everything I did with Launcher 7?
I have a stock non rooted phone and it hangs on those clouds for at least 1 minute. I thought it was normal but maybe it is not. Come to think fastboot doesn't work either and my Eris would prob. Beat it in bootup time.

Mine used to hang a while too , bit I wasn't able to lock and unlock the screen though. Here I'm able to lock and unlock the screen, but it will still stay on the clouds until its completely ready
Mine does the same, and I don't/didn't have either of those things installed.
Fast boot only works if you power down and restart the device with the power button, reboots don't do fast boot.
The clouds stay on a long time in my phone also, but not usually more than like 45 seconds after the thunder sounds stop going.
Same here.. no longer then about 30 seconds.
Yeah I realized its a launcher 7 thing. It's like the phone is loaded but the cloud stay up and I'm able to lock the phone.

I don't use Launcher 7 but do occasionally use Launcher Pro Plus. My clouds tend to hang with or without LPP honestly.. on both the latest BAMF roms and Virus ROMs. I just assumed my phone was channeling my daughters inner care-bear.
Care Bear Starrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre.

I'm using adw ex but i dont think it has to do with launcher as much as sense stuff. With fast boot the clouds take almost no time at all, but it still takes a couple extra minutes for the radio to get going from the homescreen.
After rooting my phone and flashing the Sky ICS rom, I now have a dead spot in the touchscreen around the 6, T, and G area. If I try the Swype keyboard, the swype line between letters fails at the spot, ending the swype word. I tried to fix this by flashing a few different roms, some of which would make the area bigger (affecting the R key as well, and the 6 key even when in landscape mode). I have wiped the cache/Dalvik multiple (3x each time I did it), wiped the data and re-flashed, with no benefit. I flashed a stock rom, again with no benefit. Before I use Odin and try to return to pre-root state, does anyone know of a fix for the dead spot?
Just go all stock and if you still have problem get Replacement!!!!!!!!

Well, I restored it to stock using Odin and the G still isn't working, so it looks like I will be returning it. :/
Edit: After posting this, I installed Autodesk Sketchbook to see if I could draw around the area and show what exactly was not working, but Sketchbook was able to draw through the G's area fine. Very, very interesting.
Open up your dialer and enter *#0*# it beings up a test screen and one of the options is a touch test.

Is there a way to recalibrate the touch screen? I dont see anything in the menus, nor can i find an app in the market. All of a sudden the right side of my screen is not responding to touch. (about half inch from right side) but all the menu buttons work.
I have a stock phone. Never rooted.
Recently my touch screen has been giving me issues registering touches in areas where I didn't touch. But about a week ago the screen completely quit working 70% of the time.
[Q]Is there a way for me to completely control the device only using the Keyboard. I know i can use the arrow pad and it has menu and search. But i am still missing some functions of the touch screen as well as home. Just for a while as my upgrade is soon and I don't feel like wasting $100 this close to my upgrade.
I am rooted running CM7 Stable
When your in trouble adb is your best friend to controll what your phone does.

Have tried doing an RUU back to 2.2 to see if it resolves the issue? Then start the Root process all over again.

UnlockBootloader > Root > Change Kernel > Overclock to 1.3Ghz
Freeze using link2sd :
- Connected Devices (if you don't need to connect to other SONY device)
- Smart Connect (maybe for SmartWatch, etc)
- Sound enhancements (if you feel lag when you use WALKMAN)
- Update Centre (just unfreeze it when you need to update)
Use Zeam Launcher and Freeze Xperia stock launcher
Use Camera ICS+ and Gallery ICS to replace stock camera and album. (just freeze stock Album. Don't freeze stock Camera!)
Disable Google's location service when you don't need it (Settings>Location Services>Google's location service)
This phone have too much running app on RAM (Connected Devices,Smart Connect, etc). You can play Temple Run 2 smoothly if you have much free RAM... sorry for my English hehe :cyclops:
