Guys, I am new to the forum, I would appreciate if you could share some experience. I have a 3 months old One Mini. Looking good and working like a dream.
I had to factory reset couple of times, but all remained stable. Some days ago I realized that when I want to start on an application on the screen it does not do anything, but then after 2nd try it works perfectly. I does not happen often just sometimes. From the Menu all works perfectly, the issue occurred only with on-screen apps. I have a screen protector on. Am I touching incorrectly, or an app is running in the background and that causes the glitch, or the screen protector? Shall I factory reset again? Any advice would help. Thanks
Do you use "magnification gestures" under "accessibility" on your system menu? When I had this turned on it would make some of my apps take an extra tap or pressing and holding until it responded. soon as I turned this off all was good again.

I have looked through the posts and I did not see this issue previously reported. I let my phone run out of power two nights ago. Ever since then my phone will not lock. If I try to manually lock it, the screen just turns off. If the screen times out, that is all that happens. I have rebooted, both fast and full, no change. Any advice?

try taking the battery out.
Tried a battery pull. The first screen is locked after turning on, but after unlocking, the original problem persists. Thanks. Next idea?

Great user name!
hello
hello factory reset
How do your settings look under Security > Lock Phone After? I don't remember what the default setting there was, but if you have anything other than "Immediately" it won't lock until that defined time. For example, I have mine set to 5 minutes so I can still jump into my phone (not literally, of course) after powering the screen off without having to unlock it. It's just a convenience thing for me.
Hopefully that does the trick for you. Keeping my fingers crossed.
So odd. The "lock after" option is only visible if I select a pattern or password. I chose immediately, unselected the pattern, and now the lock works, although that option disappeared again. Thanks everyone for your help, I'll let you know if this holds.

When I started using my Charge today, I discovered two odd problems with it.
Firstly, when I press the lock button (from a locked state), the screen starts dim and then brightens. When the screen is dim, it is completely unresponsive until it brightens about a second later. This isn't particularly horrible, but it is kind of annoying.
Second, I can't rotate my phone anymore. I've checked the settings and the notification tray and they both have auto rotate enabled. It isn't tied to any app as it happens accross the phone.
Both of these issues started today and I didn't make any big changes to my phone. I'm running GummyCharged 1.9.1 (flashed the full Odin) and I'm planning on just flashing it again if no one has any ideas to fix this. Thanks for any help!

The dim would appear to be normal as my phone does it as well although I wouldn't say it takes a full second before its responsive.
As for auto rotate, try deleting ms3c_yamaha.cfg from /data/system and reboot.

I added .bak to the end of the file, rebooted, and both problems are fixed. The screen is still dim and then brightens upon hitting the lock button, but it is now immediately responsive.
Thanks for the help!

Good to hear that it worked for you.

Sometimes the spacebar/v and launcher area doesn't respond/have to press really hard to work until I reboot my phone. Is this a software problem or a hardware problem?
Try to do factory reset, and see if its gonna solve the issue. If not It might be defective digitizer. So you should Go and get replacement phone.

I get this too sometimes, like the b/n region of the keyboard won't register presses. If I lock and unlock the screen it starts working again. I'm on leedroid and it does it in that and any other rom I've been on before so a factory reset doesn't seem to fix it.
Yeah the factory reset isn't helping
The only time this happens to me is when I'm using portrait keyboard. As soon as I close keyboard n press on screen its registers... I have yet to have this happen to me on any app or homescreen.

I noticed this too but didnt think much of it at the time.
Dont think it is hardware though....
I was trying to open a folder in the HTC launcher but it wouldnt recognize the taps.
But it did let me move the folder onto screen using long press and hold.
So digitizer is fine (in my case anyway)
I was using swiftkey and noticed that the video button stopped working properly and I. Had to press really hard on it to work. Same problem with launcher. I'm still not convinced that it's a software issue alone. This is my 3rd one s and none of my other ones had this problem
Hey fellas, so I've been using JellyBean 4.2.1 Unofficial CM10.1 rom now, for about a month- Went from a stock- unrooted to the JB Unofficial CM 10.1, and everything has worked like a charm.... but then last night I was using my Infuse when all of a sudden the bottom row of keys wouldn't respond. At first I had thought that the phone had frozen because I hit the Home key and it wouldn't budge. Then I realized the screen still responded, so it didnt freeze. So what I did was go ahead and reboot it, but still the keys wouldn't work, If I pressed them though, they would flicker, so they still seem to have a response, but they neither vibrate nor do the function they're supposed to do. So then I plugged the phone up to charge it for a about 2 hrs, when I realized they were working again. In the morning, just to make sure the problem wouldn't happen again I went into Recovery and wiped Cache and Delvic Cache... as the morning progressed the phone once again lost its bottom row keys function, so I removed the battery for a couple of minutes then booted the phone up. The keys were once again up and running as usual. But after more phone interactions came through, I lost again the use of the botton keys. So I did the battery trick about 2 more times to get the keys to work, then in the afternoon, removing the battery no longer had any effect on the hardware keys. So since I had the 12-19 rom update, I went ahead and Installed this year's new rom, the 1-14-13 Rom, doing the data, cache, system and delvic wipes, and hopefully rebooted to find the the keys still remain ineffective... I have now searched quite a bit to find nothing to help me, guys, and I'm honestly uneasy right about now, because I'm afraid my beautiful phone is now messed up forever. Can anyone PLEASE help me by any means, to resolve the issue? Thanks!
I have flashed it back to complete stock, and nothing happens!! the softkeys just turn on when I swipe my finger and flicker once when I press on an specific button. So going back to JB CM 10.1 and getting onscreen menu buttons meanwhile :S
The only thing I can thank of is that you or the ROM may have disabled your hardware keys. Have you tried disabling them and then re-enabling them?

Actually tried like 4 different roms, so that actually couldnt be the problem, it seems I have now 3 days of having my softkeys back... and didnt do a thing to get them, im guessing my phone was messed up...
In any case i found a great app called button savior which are onscreen buttons which is pretty good, but yea mustve been a phone issue, but apparently its fixed for the tome being, hope it never happens again... but thanks for your answer!
Well I'm glad I could help and I hope your keys stay working

That actually happened to me long time ago. But whenever it happens, I just turn the screen off and on. It fixed for me.

Persistantly on screen the little up arrow stays over my home button so I can't use it whatsoever. Sometimes if I reboot it will go away for a short time, otherwise it's always there. I thought it may be from gravitybox but I wasn't sure. Any help would be appreciated!!

Are you using any lock screen mods? I had the issue a couple months ago but forgot how I resolved it.

Weird - even the camera icon on the bottom right is what is usually on the lockscreen (not usually in the app drawer). What mods do you have installed?
I have Notification Mod and Gravitybox

I have the exact same problem. Glad I'm not the only one who's going crazy with this thing.
I pretty much have your exact same set-up. I disabled Notification Mod last night to see if that is the problem but that damn little arrow keeps popping back up over the home button.
I have no idea how to fix this either.
Same issue... but no resolution...
Honestly it's been so long I don't remember, but somehow I fixed it! I think I red lashed my rom, removing GravityBox beforehand, and reinstalling it, only enabling things I knew I needed. Haven't had issues since. Weird issue though
