My screen Is Broken During ROM use but not Recovery??? - LG Optimus 3D

Hi so for the last week or so my screen has been completely knackered, what i meen is when i press the unlock button on the top of the screen it looks as if someone is tapping the bottom left corner of the screen where the first quick launch icon is. and while it is doing this i cannot press anywhere on my screen but if im fast enough (like press the unlock button while rappidly touching my screen i can press anywhere on the screen and i can see the ripple and i can even unlock the screen but then i cannot press anything on the home screen icons/apps or any interaction with the phone at all.
tw
But with the TWRP works perfect without any issues with the response to my touch.
The rom im using is the untouched large Partition ICS ROM.

Power off software option

When you press the Start key there is an option in the bottom left hand corner to lock the screen, I was wondering if it would be possible to have in the opposite right hand corner the option to shutdown?
I know you can install various cab to have a shutdown link on the home screen or even in the start menu, but it would look nice to have it opposite the lock screen key.

[Q] screen freezes on appdrawer and home

Ok so I couldn't find anyone having the same issue in the Leedroid rom thread, so I figured I would ask here.
Does anyone elses screen freeze on the app drawer or home screens and only unfreezes when you pull the notification bar down?
I have tried turning the screen off and then back on and going into the app drawer changing the home screen (only freezes when I get to that point).
It doesn't happen all the time either. And it has been happening since the phone was stock and even now as it is rooted. I'm trying to say, I will press power button, slide lock ring, enter pattern, screen will show up, try to spin to another home screen but screen will not move, touch buttons work and volume works and power works but screen will not move. Press app drqwer and it opens but will not move either.....drag the notification bar down and everything works again.....

Home button vs screen lock press when screen is off and no lock screen security

Hello,
I've been using my new note 2 for two weeks now.. and I like it so much
I also used sgs2 and 3 before.
I'm not new to android.. I flashed roms, know every single setting in the device, rooted my sgs2 and tried lots of apps to customize them.
Regarding my issue, I like to set my device to none screen security because I always manually lock it with a press on the lock screen button after I do whatever I want to do with it, and to unlock I always press Home button to get back to where I was immediately without the need to swipe the lock screen.
The problem is when I lock it and there is an app running and then press the home button the screen goes to home default screen and do not just unlock the screen and keep it there where I was last, this was not the case with my sgs2 or sgs3.
If I press the lock screen button instead it does what I want but I prefer to use home button because its much easier.
Its not a big issue but its annoying sometimes because sometimes I get popup notification windows while the phone is locked (whatsapp for example) and I press the home button to see it and instead of just turning on the screen to see the window it goes back to home screen and the popup is gone, or in cases where I'am writing an email or reading something and meanwhile talking to somebody, if the screen gets locked, If I press the home button everything is gone. So I have to switch tasks to open my activity again.
I don't know if this is a jellybean issue or hardware (homebutton).
I know its not a big deal but I would appreciate if somebody can help get around this

Why do we need the Home button's force/3d touch?

I'm playing s8+ for over a week. Slowly the first dust settles down and I start thinking about the phone in a more reasonable way. One day I was using an app that allows rotating screen 180° (*). My first thought was: what will happen with the home button when it will be on the other side of the screen?
Will the force touch work?
It doesn't of course.
So will I be able to launch the assistant app? Yes. It launches when you keep your finger on the home button a bit longer.
Ok then. So I asked the question myself:
What this force touch is made for?
The only use I find is: enable use of Home button in immersive mode (On the AOD screen you need to double click to "turn on" the screen so I can't say that the force touch is necessary there).
Any other use you find for this sophisticated tech?

It's just to show off when the screen is off, and Always on Display is off (I don't use it due to it being a waste of battery) and allows someone to turn on the screen without using the power button.
Is just f'n awesome straight up bragging rights when you tell your friends that I can turn my phone on by touching the invisible button lol that's my only reason for needing it
I love the feature.... no screwing around with power button or anything just press and hold to unlock:good:
The only uses are turning on your screen from a screen-off state, and to return to home straight away when the buttons are gone. You can force-touch the place where the home button would be when the home buttons aren't there to go straight to your home screen, pretty useful when playing full-screen games. And it's super easy to unlock your phone when you set the touch sensitivity to the highest, just a small touch unlocks the screen easily
Heres a tip: If you leave the home button on with the always on display, you can also double tap it to have it open the lock screen instead of unlocking.

Why do people keep saying this? Is there some feature I'm not aware of? It's a hard-press or, in the alternative, a double tap if the home button is showing. I've never seen any option to "press and hold" (a/k/a "long-press") like you and others keep saying. What am I missing?

go to display settings then to navigation bar settings then there is option for unlock with home button, once that is on, with AOD on you just touch and hold the button and it will go right to your home screen or you can shut off AOD and with the screen off you can still press and hold in the same area where the home button would be and it will unlock the phone and take you to your home screen:good:

Strange. That doesn't work for me. I enabled "Unlock with Home Button," and when my screen is on AOD, I touch-and-hold on the home button, and nothing happens. Only double-touching or hard-pressing do anything. I'm on Verizon S8+.
Main use is for AOD. You wouldnt want your phone turning on simply be the home button screen area being rub.
But outside of that. There isnt a need for it. There had been phones with on screen home buttons before. This thing here is that they disapper when using full screen on the s8

Any good alternatives to using the power button to lock device?

I find this phone great, the only thing that is bugging me is the position of the power button. It's so far up the right hand side I find it a pain to reach to (I always hold phone in my left hand). I would lock my old phone by using a gesture through Nova Launcher, but (I think because of a newer Android version) it is no longer possible to do that properly. It can only be done so that the phone is "Admin locked" and requires the pin to unlock (not face/fingerprint), or to turn the display black until it times out (which is supposed to be for 5 seconds but for some reason it takes the full normal timeout of 1 min).
Does anyone know of a way to lock the phone properly using anything other than the power button? (without root)
I know LG seem against remapping the assistant button, but one great option they could have would be to be able to swap round the power and assistant buttons
Not the right thread to ask in but you can turn on KnockON in General settings and thereafter double tapping on the notification bar will lock your phone.
Thanks for the tip.
Apologies for posting in the wrong place, I meant to do it in Q&A, somehow I messed up :/
Mods please feel free to delete/move this topic
You can also double tap any open space on the home screen to lock the phone. Same with the lock screen. Double tapping anywhere while display is off wakes it.
