How would I do a hard reset?
P.S. Sorry for the late response; I've been very busy.

I tried that numerous times, however, it didn't work. Still having the white screen
maybe it is just a broken screen.... i had the exact same issue and i simply bought a new lcd on ebay... and now it works perfectly

Is the white screen appearing while in call? Mine did that too. Just whenever this happens hit the back arrow button, and it should go away. Hope this helps
When i place a call and put the phone to my ear and then pull back away the screen does not "wake". It stays de-activated, no matter what i do. Eventually the only thing to do is to hold the power button down long enough for the phone to reboot.
Stock ROM, no root.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
WTF
I tested by laying the phone flat on a surface, placed a call, and then put my hand over the proximity sensor. The screen turned black as it should. When I removed my hand it did not come back on. Again, the only solution is to reboot the phone. So, the proximity sensor is not working correctly. Is this a known issue and is there a way to fix?
BUMP!
I'm in the self test module and am running the "sensors" test. I'm not sure when this ends if it ends at all or what values that proximity sensor field should have.
Anybody? Bueller?
Apparently Q&A isn't the place to post this? This is dissapointing coming from the E4GT forums which were super responsive.
Cool yer jets. It's only been a few hours. What ROM? Rooted? Any other mods that might affect it?

LOL
I said no root stock ROM
Anyway, I turned off the proximity sensor, verified that it was off, then turned it back on. It works now. Bizarre.
Sorry to get pissy.

NOT FIXED
So after a reboot the proximity sensor does not work on calls again. I turned it off and then back on and still no luck. I didn't actually make a call, but obviously I shouldn't have to do this every time i reboot the phone, so clearly there is an issue. It appears to be software since I got it to work once.
Any ideas? Thanks.

After insalling a new screen my phone acted the same. I opened it up again and found a tiny piece of plastic form the old screen inside the proximity sensor hole.
I know your problem is not this, just wanted to share

hmmm interesting. I think this is likely a software issue on mine. it would be dumb to have to return it since i'm confident there's a way to fix it.

That solution wasn't very good aha, what I would suggest you root your phone without tripping the flash counter and install a custom rom to see if the issue still exists, if yes you should return the phone.

thanks well it's brand new and it may be hardware related so i'd rather just get a fresh device then sweat dealing with root yet. this is why i waited to root it. I appreciate your effort though .

Plus I don't think just rooting it is a sound fix strategy.
Nobody has anything on this huh?
BTW, Wirefly sucks...
Have you already done a master reset?

Evening, guys.
I'm kinda having problems with my Android Beam on the GNexus.
I used my phone (GNexus 4.1.1) and my girlfriend's phone (NexusS 4.1.1).
Put them back to back and tried to send webpages, youtube videos, contacts, images, etc..
Both devices vibrate and have the "touch to beam" options.
When attempting to send the file after touching, the image of that file would just slowly getting smaller on the screen to a point it just "goes away" and nothing happens on both phones.
The device trying to send just stays on the Beam's screen and the other device trying to receive doesn't do anything.
(just ONCE we could share a video from youtube with no problem, as mine GNexus was at 4.0.4 yet)
Don't have any other device to test..
Bought mine 3 days ago, wondering if it could be a hardware (or whatever) problem.
Any ideas about that?
Thanks in advance.
Nobody?
Have just few more days to send it back to the store if it's factory problem.. needing help ASAP
Have you tried GW?
Mine does the same when beaming with friends galaxy s2 I don't know what happens

Thanks for the replies

No problem between my gnex and n7.
Beamed from my Grouper.
Have you tried touching and holding instead of just tapping, when it says to touch?

Yeah, already tryied almost everything.. holding, double tapping, frenetic tapping.. lol
But they just do the same
Wish I had another device to test at..
I think this might be a software problem, if it was a hardware problem nothing would even show up.
Hello,
Ever since the update to 4.3, the home button is absolutely annoying. Everytime I need to get back to the home screen, it opens the recent tabs list. Anyone who knows what I am talking about knows how extremely frustrating this is. So, is there a fix?
Sounds like it may be sticking. That's what its supposed to do when you long press home.

Definitely not sticking. It seems once upgraded to 4.3, it started happening. I was reading a lot of people were having the same issue. But they were old posts, so I wasnt able to find a resolution. Its really annoying actually as it slows things down quite a bit, like a major time stopper.
Never had that happen for me. Have you disabled double press for svoice? If you flash an older rom does it fix it?

Yes I have disabled that. No, I am completely stock refreshed from samsung after sending in to fix cracked screen.
Did you get the same one back, or a refurb? Id contact them either way if they caused the problem.
Or try reflashing your firmware.

My phone is killing me... All of a sudden when I'm in the settings there is something like ghost touch that drags the screen down. It happens only in the settings! I can't even access to the developer options to activate touch feedback! In a couple days I'm gonna try to reset the phone but for me it's problem is absurd. I don't think that this happened to anyone other than me but do you have any suggestions?

Try using screen test app from Playstore to know that your touches are getting registered as you want to.

Can you suggest me a good app? BTW I tried to lock the screen in portrait (reverse) using an app called set orientation in order to check what would happen. The screen continues to go down while it was supposed to go up instead if there were ghost touch in the bottom of the screen

If even after resetting the phone, the problem persists. Service center is the destination.

The problem keeps happening, unfortunately I won't be home until Friday evening and until then I can't reset the phone because I don't have a wifi connection.
I hope that a factory reset will solve the issue but I was wondering if since this is most likely a software issue, I could flash the original firmware in case the soft reset isn't enough. I had several Sony phones before this one and I could do it without voiding the warranty and with a locked bootloader. Is it the same case for this one?

Yes. Warranty will only be void with unlocking the bootloader and misuse of the unit.
Maybe you can try to use a hair dryer to dry the phone!
Also a reboot comes in handy all the time!
Do check your charger too!
It used to happen with me on my old phone due to my sweaty hands! Fortunately this doesn't happen with me on my Honor!
Edit:Also check if you have Glove mode On in settings - smart assistance
bro just hand over to service center they will take care of your phone ,please don't do any hard things to phone
I did a factory reset and all seems to be working fine now. I hope it will last
