I don't know what I did but for whatever reason my screen is no longer responding on the 7,8,9 row on the phone. Mods if this is not in the right place can you move it please.
The last thing I did was change evrc to evrc.b and now the row doesn't work. I'm using fresh's rom if that makes a difference.
try recalibrating Menu-Settings-Lang&keyboard-Text input- Calibration (at the bottom)
unfortunately after re-calibrating AND resetting back to factory it still doesn't pick it up.
ok i just did a data wipe and a dalvic-cache wipe and re-installed fresh's rom to see if it would fix the problem, unfortunately it doesn't look like it worked at all. i'm still getting no input on the 7,8,9 row. anybody have any other idea i can bounce around to try to fix my touch screen problem?

Have you tried reflashing the stock ROM to see if it's simply a hardware issue?

first off, this should be in the q&a board, IMO.
second, i agree completely with the previous post. i would reflash to completely stock. if the issue persists and is consistent, as in those rows NEVER work no matter what (stock software or custom software), i would take it back to where you bought it, sprint/radio shack/best buy. it should be easy to demonstrate to them the issue and they shouldn't have any problem exchanging your current model as defective for a new one.
if the issue is fixed by flashing stock software ... then that's another ball game and we can work with that when we get there so keep us updated!
ok really noob question but when you say stock rom, do you mean stock rom that is rooted or completely stock like out of box, and if that's the case where do i get the stock rom from? also would this screw up my root access?
edit:
will this one work forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=685835?
ok so yeah i did a flash to the stock rom and it's still a no go. >_< looks like i'm taking it back to sam's club to get it replaced then.
I've got MIUI ROM 1.6.10 installed on my HTC Desire and I really like it, but I've got a big issue with the camera: it's in a constant state of being frozen.
So to clarify, I open the camera app, and it's straight away frozen. I try to press buttons but all I get is the Force Close / Wait dialogue. If I wait, nothing happens. If I force close and open it again, it's frozen still/again.
It used to happen to me in MIUI 1.2 as well and when I upgraded to MIUI 1.4 after a wipe, surprisingly it was exactly the same, but then I tried pressing the Clear Data button for the Camera application and it started working again.
A little bit after it started getting frozen again. Clear data didn't work anymore, neither did a wipe, SD card format and upgrading to 1.6.10, as mentioned above.
The only thing I can think about the might cause the problem is this: before miui I used to have cyanogen ROM. When I look at phone information it says I've got the cyanogen kernel. is that something that could cause problems to the miui ROM? Should install a different kernel?
Can anyone please help? I really like this ROM and I don't want to have to start getting used to something else!
Thanks for reading!
I'm not sure if this is useful/helpful at all but i gather that since it says that you've got cm kernel you didn't perform a full wipe when you installed miui... try doing a full wipe and reinstalling it...
Save important user data and apps, perform a full wipe and flash again.
Does a full wipe erase the previous kernel?
What kernel will I have then?
Can anyone actually explain what kernel is exactly?
Also, how do I do a FULL wipe?
Because I've already done:
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- wipe dalvik cache
What am I missing?
Cheers
After a full wipe you won't be able to start any rom.
You will get the kernel which is delivered with the rom you flash.
An explanation for the kernel:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel
Nothing is missing for a full wipe.
Search the miui thread for your problem.

If nothing is missing and I've actually done a full wipe, then why is my kernel still cyanogen?

Wicked thank you. So the kernel is not the problem.
Could I still have missed something from a full wipe? I remember reading in the guide that u need to format /data,or something. But I assumed the wipes I've detailed above were sufficient. Can anyone confirm that for me?
Or can anyone tell me otherwise why I'm having this problem?
Thanks.

DIDN'T WORK!
It's a shame. I really thought that was the solution, but it didn't work.
I've just downloaded and installed the recommended radio (5.17.5.23), even tried to clear the camera's data again, but it's still frozen.
ANYONE ...? :\
Did you try some other kernels like ManU or Tiamat?

No. Do you reckon that might help? Which one would u recommend?
Okay I've tried a different radio, different kernels (Tiamat 3.3.8 and 4.0.5). Nothing helps!
Does anyone have a clue how to fix this annoying problem?
Another lead I had in mind: Could the fact that I have S-ON affect anything?
Update: I've tried pressing "Fix Permissions" in ROM Manager which didn't help either.
................?
The MIUI camera seems to be a bit buggy, I had to update the radio which helped me get rid of the worst crashes (suprise reboots) but it's still FC'ing and crashing the camera totally so that a reboot is necessary.
Try installing Camera360 from Market. It works for me, and at least you will know if it's just the MIUI Camera app that's broken or if you have bigger problems. In case Camera360 can't connect to the camera, reboot and try again.

I've already tried a different camera from the market and it does work with no problems at all.
It is the miui camera app that's malfunctioning.
If no one has a solution, all that's left for me is to hope the miui devs will fix this critical issue for their next build.

Ah, then it's most probably the same problem that I have, only I get to shoot a few pics before it goes bye bye and then no camera app at all works until I reboot.
It's a shame because I really like the MIUI Camera, but I guess we'll just have to wait for a fix. If you have error logs, try posting them in the official forum for your MIUI build and maybe they can get someone in China working on a solution?
same problem for me but i am on 1.9.16 ported to X10 lol...
I seen somewhere that it was the auto focus that caused problems/ lags for ppl so if i could just get it to work once and maybe turn that off?
Hello everyone,
I know this question was asked and answered, but the answers didn't solve it for me.
I'm using Eagle's Blood ROM, and I have this problem with Synergy and Jugs. The white line from the last frame of the CRT off animation appears 1st when unlocking.
I wiped Cache and Dalvik and fixed permissions, and the problem went away, however when I rebooted, it came back. I did the wipe and permission fix twice and every time it comes back after a reboot.
I'm sorry for asking this here, but I'm new and not allowed to post in the relevant thread.
Great work on the ROMs and Kernels, you guys are what Android is all about
I think its the kernels man.... I had a lot of issues with the custom kernels on eagles blood :l so flash other roms if you want to use the kernels or jus flash the stock kernel again

Thanks for the reply
I forgot to mention that I also tried the Juggernaut ROM... same problem there too. I will try other ROMs and see if the problem goes away.

What kernel? I think it's that. Plus, I think it also may be because of slower graphical performance. I noticed it when the rest of my system was laggy and kinda choppy.
-We do what we must because we can. For the good of all us, except the ones who are dead.-
reflash the kernel
and do these steps

I had the same problem with both Synergy and Jugs. I don't think it is because of any slow-down or choppiness; I never had this problem with the stock kernel, even though it has its share of lag.
I think it may be the CRT off effect, it could be conflicting with the custom kernels.
I did flash Jugs twice, and every time the problem goes away after I do the wipe-caches-and-fix-permissions thingy. However, as soon as I reboot, it comes back.
I think I found a solution. Fixng permission clearing cache and dalvic cache didn't work. But a hard reboot worked. Hold power button till phone reboot tada!

I have a question about them that I posted at the thread
I searched for something like this, but couldnt find anything. Ive been flashing between different Roms since I got my phone, and wanted tosee if there was something that I could flash to wipe away all the gremlins from previous Roms. I still do a clean flash and wipe dalvik, cache, and factory reset. But ive been noticing little issues here and there.

Well There isn't one as such. Typically what I do is.
1. Factory Reset
2. Wipe Dalvik, Cache and sometimes /Data
3. Flash the Rom & Gapps.
4. Reboot Setup everything
5. Reboot Again to Recovery and then wipe Dalvik+Cache and then flash custom Kernel if I wanted.
I may skip Step 5 if I want to stick with Rom's own kernel. I know you went through this, I just wanted to specify the sequence. If you still have issues then post them on the new rom's thread.

Thanks. I know on the SGS Blaze 4G someone developed a gremlin cleaner that you could flash along with wiping everything manually. Just wondered if there was one for the S3. Im using Goosh rom, but it looks like the developer dropped support.

What little issues and on which ROMs? It matters.
Factory reset wipes data and cache. Dalvik cache is on the data partition, isn't it?
So factory reset, wipe system. Should be all you need to do.

Ive been reflashing Goosh rom, but after 2-3 months or so I have to reflash it because it slows down and starts to have issues. Havent installed or updated any apps. I dont have many and I know they can affect it. So thats when ive been doing. I really like the rom and get great battery life, but the dev has dropped support for it. Even to tell me to "use a different ROM" because he doesnt care. But each time I reflash it after a couple months, it doesnt seem to work as well as the very first flash from when I first got the phone. I feel like things are building up/not getting completely wiped.

Please try Auto Memory Manager on most aggressive setting. Check and see how things go. If you see FCs then dial back to medium.
On a side note, Better Battery life ? See these Screenshots for Battery life of other roms to compare/

Unless you're completely wiping everything, including internal sd, then there will of course be lingering data. But consider doing a true factory reset, which formats /data. From a custom recovery, it doesn't format because it's preserving your internal sd data. You'll have to specifically choose Format Data from within the recovery.
Something else you can try is in Settings, Developer Options, at the bottom choose Limit Background processes and I would select 3 to start. If it doesn't help much go to 2 and test.

Can you tell me what Rom was being used in this screenshot that you linked to? I would like to stay with a TW rom.... Also, does it matter if I flash via TWRP or CWM? Im so used to CWM....
Hello,
I would've posted this in the hyperdrive forum, but alas, I am still under 10 posts. So, this was the next best thing. I have an I747 which I am running Hyperdrive on, and so far I really like it. I just ran into the issue with the camera today. The camera itself was working just fine, but once I switched to the video camera, all hell broke loose. Every time I try to open the camera app, all it does is hang and force close. I can't even switch it back to the camera. I tried to flash the zip fix through TWRP, but it didn't have an effect. Am I doing anything wrong?
FYI: when I flashed the zip, I dirty flashed as it was a small file, and I figured that was fine, although I could've done it wrong.

Are you on the latest version of hyperdrive, rls 16? Are sure you followed all the instructions properly? What camera did you choose to install?

I definitley am on rls16, and I followed the directions to a "T". Everythng else works except for the camera, and it was only when I switched to video when it froze and now I can't get it back to just the camera. I installed the note 3 when I first when through the aroma installer.

Alright, so I went back and re-read the OP on hyperdrive, and saw this:
"IF YOUR CAMERA DOES NOT WORK, YOU NEED TO FLASH AN UPDATED KERNEL FOR YOUR CARRIER!!"
So I went and flashed ktoonsez's kernel for TW based 4.1.2 ROMS. followed his instructions to a "T". Flashed the kernel, wiped cache and Dalvik, fixed permissions, and rebooted.

No change in the damn camera. It's still stuck in video mode, and FC's after only a few seconds. It won't let me change the setting back to the camera from video, and none of the buttons work while in the app.

That's really weird. I have the note 2 camera on rls 16 and it works fine. I didn't need to flash a fix or anything. Maybe try reflashing the rom ? Or perhaps you got a bad download in which case you could try redownloading it.

Just as an update, I did get this to work by reflashing the ROM and using the stock s3 camera instead of the note one. Since then I have moved on to the Slimbean ROM. I just wanted a smaller, lighter ROM, and am not really a fan of Touchwiz. The great thing about all of this, is that I can go back whenever I want!
