phone presses buttons by itself. - General Questions and Answers

I have a Huawei G510, at first I had it with stock ROM and it was sick, too slow and problems with microphone etc...
I installed a new ROM that was clean and runs smooth, after 2 weeks my phone started pressing menu or home buttons by itself sometimes, the problem kept occurring from time to time and I factory reset it everything became fine. after several days the problem appeared again without stopping as soon as I unlock it it starts pressing home,back,menu buttons by itself. I tried another ROM(cyanogen 10.1 android 4.2) and the problem still occurs even with nothing installed on my phone, didn't even set up GMAIL yet, after that the buttons stopped working at all, I downloaded a softkey app and after 1 day the problem appeared again. It is really annoying i've tried everything I can but it seems to be a hardware software, I'd like to stop the buttons from functioning if it's possible and use the softkeys app.

Hard Keys Not Working & Volume Rocker Acting Crazy

Hard Keys Not Working
So, I searched and searched, but couldn't find anything that addressed my issue, so here goes...
Yesterday out of nowhere, the hard keys on my ATT Fuze just stopped working (Home, back, call, and hang up). Also, when I press my volume rocker it not only causes the volume screen to fluctuate wildly and not really do anything (but make lots of noise), it also makes the battery screen and the camera program open...
I've done a hard reset, a soft reset, and I have reflashed my old ROM (RRE21725 V3) and just flashed a new ROM (RRE21725 V5). Doesn't matter what I do, the hard keys still won't work and every time I reboot, the volume window opens and flashes a lot, the camera program opens, and the battery page pops up.
I'm going crazy and am finding my phone a bit unusable.
This hasn't happened up until late yesterday. I've never dropped my phone or gotten it wet. I just purchased it back in March.
Help, if anyone can.
hello, sound like the phone itself, i sent mine back about 3 weeks ago, same problem. you can try and flash the att rom, new one is posted on htc's web site and see if that works.

Installed anything recently?
have you tried a reset (soft/hard)?
Put a new screen protector on recently? (might be activating screen elements.)

[Q] Back button freezes and becomes unresponsive in all apps

My Nexus 5 has been experiencing this issue for months now. It happens in all apps (especially Facebook, WhatsApp and Jeffit). I press the back button and it freezes, meaning I can't press anything other than the home button to exit the app. This will then repeat itself time and time again until I eventually turn the phone on and off. This will solve the issue for a few minutes until it starts again.
I tried factory reset and it was fine for a short while and then began again. I've tried to see what app it could be, but from Google searches it seems like other people have it too and no one has a solution? There didn't seem to be a thread on it on XDA so wanted to see if anyone has managed to fix it?
I haven't got anything custom on my phone and it isn't rooted. It's so frustrating and it's ruining and otherwise flawless experience with the Nexus 5. I'm pretty sure it started after the Kit Kat update.

CM12 - Random Black Desktop on Wake

Hi - I have tried multiple Lollipop based ROMs on my OPO. All the Lollipop ROMs have exhibited the same failure on my OPO: When the phone wakes up, I will randomly see a totally black - and basically unusable - desktop, but have a fully working Status Bar and working pull-down Navigation Bar. Holding the power button also brings up the shut-down options. so, I know that my phone isn't dead or frozen, I just can't see anything on my desktop. If I press the power button momentarily to lock the phone, I will see the unlock 3x3 pattern grid when I power on, and I can unlock the phone - but, I see a black desktop.
I recently loaded the official CM12 nightlies, and I am seeing the exact same thing. One thing I have finally determined (which I suspected previously), is that there was some sort of App crash during the phone sleep that had a pop-up message on the screen when the phone woke up. After a lot of random finger mashing and loud screaming at the phone, I saw my desktop again, and saw that "Google App" had crashed. After clearing the error pop-up, my phone has worked fine without rebooting ... for now.
The problem with this is that the black desktops become more frequent as time progressed, eventually reaching the point where I would reboot my OPO and it would power up to a black desktop. In the past, I occasionally saw a flash that looked like a pop-up message before the black desktop, and now I have confirmed that is what is happening.
Does anybody know what is going on?
The problem can be the gapps package you're flashing. Try another one.

Thanks! Do you have a suggested gapps I should try? I loaded pa_gapps-modular-mini-5.0.1-BETA7-20150111a-signed with this build.

Long press stops working on menu, home and back button

I have been a proud owner of the OnePlus One for about a year now and never had any major problems with it, until now... A week ago I noticed that my physical buttons stopped responding to long press. I rebooted the phone and the buttons functioned like normal. The problem reocurred half a day later. This time I tried to figure out if this is a software or a hardware problem. I switched the phone to use the on screen buttons and I experienced the same problems. I have ran into this problem about 5-7 times this week. I suspect two possible culprits: the phone did overheat not once but twice a day or two before the problems started poping up, but I think this is not the cause of the problems; I also noticed that the Facebook Messenger app is acting strange when the long press is not working, so the messenger app may be the cause of these problems, but I'm not sure how to test this since I cannot recreate the problems. I will try to make a screen capture demonstrating the issue.
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?
I turned off the Facebook Messenger bubbles and that seemed to help.
Update: The problem still repeated itself. I think the problem lies in the SwiftKey Keyboard. I uninstalled it and no problems so far.

Galaxy s6 soft keys flashing

Hi guys,
My girlfriend has a galaxy s6 running marshmallow. The soft keys are constantly flashing/blinking whenever the screen is turned on. This also causes the device to lag, draining the battery.
I've tried factory resetting the device, and running it in safe mode suggesting it's not software related.
I also installed the the app "Galaxy button lights" that allows the control of the lights, this does stop them flashing, but the device still seems to be running slowly.
Thanks for any advice in advance.
Hi did you find a solution to this as I am having the same problem. Power mode on stops the constant flashing but the phone still lags and it flashes when I charge my phone. My power button also phantom presses :/
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?
Me too. Turning off the buttons seems to help... it drives me less crazy... but it still feels like there is screen lag. I think this started after I installed the last system update.
One of my co-workers suggested that it may be caused by moisture inside the phone. I set it in the sun for a while, and the problem seems to have gone away.

This happened to me like 4 months ago, it hasn't "dried" till now However if i press hard on the lower left bezel - next to the app switcher button my phone works. I have a theory that the contact has become loose under the phone or so?
Hi, I have the same problem for a long time I installed a couple of firmware and the same thing on the factory software always happens, now I use custom rom and it works without problems, it means only on the factory versions I have a problem
