Navigation Buttons not working - Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) Questions & Answers

The Navigation Buttons at the bottom of the screen are not working. In general everything else is working although occasionally touch on any part of the screen fails and restart is required.
Can anyone suggest what might be causing this problem?

Aligning the touch screen w/ WM6 + registry -- !!?

Does anyone here know of a method that I can align a touch screen on a pocketpc/phone (XV-6700; did not post this on the Apache forum because I am just wondering about how to do this on WM6 regardless of the phone function) using the registry? I have to use the registry, if anything, or anything else because the traditional pointing and touching with the stylus does not work due to a 20% working screen. Only the middle portion of the screen registers clicks truely. The other 80% of the screen you click here and the touch registers as a touch over there, centimeters away, making it useless.
Thanks in advance... I really would love to get this spare xv-6700/ppc-6700 phone working how it used to but I am sure it's a hardware + OS issue and the phone function has nothing to do with it.

Why not use the screen calibration under settings? If it still doesn't work, you may need a replacement.

Off-Screen Navigation Button Not Working

My off-screen navigation button is not working all of a sudden. It isn't responding to any of my taps and no configuration of settings has fixed this. Along with that, there seems to be no option in the settings regarding Fingerprint IDs. I'm assuming it's a software issue. I have resorted to the virtual nav buttons for now. Any help is appreciated. I'm on the BKL-AL00 model.

Home soft buttons/gestures not working anymore

I'm having a weird issue with my Pixel 1, all of a sudden my swipe from bottom home gesture stopped working. I enabled the soft buttons bar again but even tapping the home button there does nothing neither does the app drawer button, however the back gesture and button works fine.
There's also a few more oddities like my registered fingerprints got deleted so I had to register them again, some settings were changed like the order of the quick action icons, swiping the fingerprint reader down doesn't open notifications, and so on.
I've had issues with my battery for a while so I thought it could be related but I still have issues after replacing it. Is this a know issue or some sort of malware maybe? I'm thinking about doing a factory reset but I'm wondering if there's a less nuclear option.
Thanks!

Multitouch issue/disable with the status/notification bar?

Hello. So i made the switch to the S10e and i've been running into this issue where if i accidentally hold my phone with my finger just touching the selfie camera (or any part of the status/notification bar at the top of the screen), any and all other touch inputs just get disabled.
Any solutions to this? I assume Android thinks i'm going to pull it down and disables every other touch or something, but is there an option not to do that but still keep the draggable status bar? This also happens in all apps and the home screen/apps etc. no matter the screen.
Activating Show Taps in developer shows that the OS DOES see both my taps, the status bar and anything else, just that the software-side blocks other inputs once that initial status bar touch is seen and still active. It does NOT happen with the back/home/apps bar or generally anywhere else. I have tried making sure Nova launcher isn't doing anything. Tried Accidental touch protection On and Off and a host of other settings. Confirmed this is a status bar issue with hiding it in Samsung Internet and repeating the test.
Tried EdgeTouch with NiceLock but it only really helps for the sides which aren't really my issue.
Rarely this sometimes happens with stuff on screen too in the OS itself and in apps. Usually it's with triggering a function like holding the phone with touching the left hand of the screen and accidentally 'dragging' a menu' into view a few pixels, and then that disables all other input until it's gone. But that's fine since it's very rare. It's more more often than the status/notification bar is my main issue.

Do you use a case? That's what help'd me with accidental screen touches. An "ultra slim" case was all it took for me. Hope you find what works for you.
I am really against cases, as i really want a compact fone, and there are extremely few which get launched with AMOLED nowdays. I'd rather solve this via software.
