[Q] Multi touch gaming issue - Sony Xperia L

Many people have the same problem as I do with xperia l. Any game which uses dual joysticks or both fingers for movement and aim will cause each other to be affected such as suddenly stop moving and such even though the multi touch test shows nothing wrong. Now after researching, the only solutions I found for 4.2.2 with latest official firmware (which is what I have) are;
1) downgrade to 4.1.2 (which I'm not a fan of)
2) you can't due to the hardware (which I doubt because some people don't have the problem but I don't know what they're running)
Now I want to clarify for certain what is a proper fix for this. The OI gaming rom or something said it fixed the multi touch problem but is it the problem I have or the old buggy problem where you couldn't even use both your fingers at the same time?

Can someone just tell me that if I flash a custom rom, will the problem still persist? Or is it truly a hardware problem?

hardware problem.

It is a hardware problem...
Latest stock firmware (.17) seems to tone it down a bit. Its still there.....but much,much better then previous firmware.
(and i dont know what are you talking about 4.1.2 because the multitouch is 10x worse there)
Im on stock .17 and i can finnaly play FPS games just fine with minor multitouch issues....
And no....custom roms wont help.

If this is a hardware issue, is it possible to use a joystick instead? I haven't seen anyone test this. And all I have is one of them usb controllers but there are apps that allows it to be a usable android joystick. My only problem is that it emulates the touches, would it be affected by the hardware issues?

Camera / wifi not working

Hello!
I have an Imate Jamin - it is quite an early model - it has black send/receive keys (bought it on February 2006).
The fact is that the camera and the Wifi do not work. When I start the camera application I see the clock icon for a second and then nothing happens (I remain at the exact screen). The wifi on the othe rhand seems to try to detect networks but never finds anything.
So.. the big question is whether this is software related (I have currently hard resetted and use S200's latest firmware) or hardware related. In other words two could happen:.
a. Either my model uses some older camera / wifi and thus the new firmware does not have proper drivers (has anyone else upgraded his eaelry jamin?)
or
b. Due to the many falls something has broken in my jamin (is this expected).
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me with this - I cannot find any solution.. I tried downgrading to see if its firmware related but I got an error message.. (Invalid Command at 95%)
Thanks in advance

Which ROM did you install?
AKU 2.2, 2.3, or 3.2?
You have to download using an official ruu rom upgrade (downgrade), there are better people to tell you which one rather than me, I am quite new to this group. One of the upgrades does break wifi/camera so it is not just your phone, a download will cure it, you have not broken it.

Question to all Tomtom Users

Hi.
I have just installed Tomtom (vga-version) on my Touch Pro and found, that when trying to enter an Adress with the slide-out Keyoboard an aditional character is added after each pressed button. This Means: i press "a" and "a°a" appears on the screen.
Does anyone else have the same problem or maybe found a solution?
Never noticed that problem before. Using last version of TT7. Maybe a rom issue with the keyboard driver.
Usually I'm using the soft keyboard of TT7

This is also happening to me, stock WWE updated ROM with TTN7 7.915. This is soooo lame!

I can also confirm that this is happening to me with TT 7.915. I'm not completely sure, but I don't think it happened to me with TT 7.910
Do you all use the vga-version? I think it did not happen with the not-vga version that was preinstalled on my device.
I tried with 910 and 915, and I still get this issue :-/
Its hapening to me also. im using TT7.450 (VGA)
Buts not a problem to me. Tomtom is very fingerfriendly and it goes very smooth.
On a slightly different issue, what sort of refresh rate are you getting on TomTom in terms of map redraws per second? I'd guess I'm only getting one, maybe two, but I've seen Sleuth's video, and he looks to be getting 3 or 4.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Steve.
I also have this issue, although I never use the keyboard while navigating. If you didn't mention it I would have probably never noticed it! LOL
@maw: Well I bought a PDA-holder for my car which holds the Touch pro with the open keyboard, since I thought, that it would be really cool (which it is if it wasn't for the keyboard not working properly in tomtom)
@StevePritchard: I am not sure, but I think I get about 1-3 fps in Tomtom.
did you upgrade your ROM and noticed this problem? As I never used the keyboard with the previous stock ROM I can't say if the ROM upgrade effected the Tomtom interface with the keyboard. I updated my stock ROM with the new version that just came out. Maybe that is the problem, I don't really know.... Very good of you to signal this problem though. Otherwise I don't think this problem can be fixed, I guess we'll just have to wait on a new version of Tomtom to fix this problem. Have you reported it to Tomtom?
no I did not upgrade. I didn't even know, that there is an available update. I am running the stock rom (from o2 germany) that came shipped with the phone.
Is there an update from htc?
No, I did not report, since my Version fell from a truck... I was just wondering whether it was damaged during the fall or if everyone has this problem. ;-)

Its a TomTom error, the newer TT versions dont have that problem.
I used to get this when running Elite RC2 - I moved to ROMeOS and never had the problem

What do you mean by newer versions? I use 7.915 - Is there anything more recent?
I'm getting the same problem, and I've got 7.915 as well. No-one found a solution then?
i had this problem on 3 different versions of tomtom, along with hit or miss signal. it always thinks im inside a building but in the 1/20 shot it works i cant do anything or else "im inside a building" again. i just dont think tomtom was meant for the fuse
It is not a TOMTOM issue. It is an issue with the IME. Here is the fix.
I have attached KforTouchPro_v1.0.0.3.CAB
1. Install the cab
2. It installs to your games folder because this is a fix for several games that have had this issue (I originally discovered it because I had issues using the HW keyboard with logmein)
3. click the Switch to M$ IME button. Now you are good to go!
Thanks - I have just tried it, and TT now works fine.
The problem now is, that other things don't work anymore... I tried writing an E-Mail and it wouldn't let me abort the mail. It displayed the Messageboc, but did not accept any input. Since I write more Mails than I use TT and don't like to keep on switching Keyboard map I is not a real option.
Do you have any Idea?
Hmm.. odd, when I updated my TomTom it just disappered, I have your version aswell, good that there is a update though for you
that K for touch pro, is that KforRaphael that maps certain keys for MorphGear?
I had that installed, but cant recall if it was erroring before that, anyways, good it got solved

Nexus S Accelerometer Problem

Hello all, I've been following these forums here for a while but decided to register today because I've encountered a problem with my new ROM on my NS.
Naimely I installed this rom to test JB and everything is working really fine, until i noticed that my accelerometer doesn't . Didn't see it mentioned anywhere nor anyone with similar problem.
I understand that its a nightly build and far from perfect, but I just want to know if there is any way to fix this because i really like this rom its one of the fastest/smoothest i ever had, so if I could fix this acc issue it would be great.
So basically acc doesn't respond at all in any app, I went and toggled auto-rotate in settings but nothing happens, i downloaded an app that's supposed to monitor accelerometer motion and stuff but it register 0 anything. Another maybe important note is that I'm running AIR kernel 3.0.40 on it and that it is NS not 4G.

fluctuations in the gyroscope

Hello, faced with this problem, install the virtual reality "cardboard" in the demo mode, the picture is shaking constantly, even when the phone is motionless, spent a few tests of the gyroscope is it shows fluctuations in the service center changed completely charge with all sensors, the problem persists, I understand the problem of the entire line, and probably software, somebody can help solve the problem?
Yup, my Cardboard is useless too. I guess the problem is quite similar to what Moto G users have been experiencing - both devices use a Bosch gyroscope.
Hello , I had the same problem and tried lots of solution and it was only fixed when I flashed Marshmallow ROM from "http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/rom-firmware-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3398038"

Allwinner A33 7inch tablet with part of screen not working?

Hi all,
I thought I'd try out a cheap £20+ A33 tablet which is a Q8H_HD model according to About Device and seems to be decent enough for the price. Only real issue I've discovered so far is the F key not working in landscape mode and touch screen tests seem to indicate a strip of screen that doesn't respond to touch.
I've tried factory resets etc. but no luck, I was considering flashing other firmware etc, possibly going from 4.4.2 to 5.0.
I ran an app to determine screen resolution and it said 1200x522 yet is supposed to be 1200x600. I wondered if it detracted the part of the screen that wasn't functioning or if it might have firmware that doesn't use the full screen somehow.
Am I safe to just assume it's an issue with the actual touchscreen or cable that connects it? I was considering taking it apart and re-seating the connection.
Any help or advice much appreciated
Just an update, I've tried to use livesuit/phoenixsuit to flash an img file but can't seem to get anywhere. I was hoping that I could get 5.0 on there instead of the 4.4.2 already there.
I've just rooted it anyway in an effort to get rid of the adware etc. on there but hoped to be able to flash it to something stable which is also clean if possible.
The specs are as follows:
Q8H_HD (astar_y3)
softwinner
sun8i
astar_y3-eng 4.4.2 KVT49L 20151112 test-keys
1024x552 pixels
Still hoping I might be able to get some help from here on this one
I found a firmware image which has worked after making a mess of the stock rom trying to remove the trojans etc. It's for a Dragontouch Y88X-PLUS (astar_y3-eng 4.4.2 KVT49L 20150721 test-keys). I managed to root easily with Kingoroot and then remove the trojans including cloudsota which doesn't seem to have returned after rebooting.
General speed and responsiveness seems good and the strip of touchscreen that wasn't working started working again but seems a bit intermittent so unsure what that is.
The only real issues I've discovered so far is the camera doesn't work (unfortunately, camera has stopped) and bluetooth does detect devices but I can't transfer files with my Galaxy S5 as I could with the previous firmware. Also Wifi-direct doesn't seem to work properly.
It's nice to have a clean firmware on there but wondered if the camera might be fixable possibly or even the bluetooth if it's part of the firmware?
