I cannot hear the touch clicks for system sounds when clucking icons or settings etc. Its super quiet unless I put the speaker right against my ear. I'm not talking about the keyboard clicks, those are fine. Anyone having the same issue?
Edit: lock screen sound is effected too, lock and unlock sound used to work. But its barely audible.
Also I notice after time my screen sensitivity goes to crap and touches don't register easily. Lock the screen fixes this for a short while. But it happens again after a while.
All my sounds even screen unlock screen off clicks are barely audible just like they were stock .1 and .2. No foul.

OK thanks, so it seems normal.
But my bigger issue is the touchscreen sensitivity. It keeps getting weak and doesn't register presses. Have to lock the screen to reset it. Grrr so annoying. Happens every few minutes.
Can't say I have seen that happen.
As for screen clicks, anything louder would be obnoxious.
My opinion is that UI audible feedback is significantly more quiet. Volume level for media and ringer/notifications set to max level and still can barely hear it. A regression for sure I think.

Last time I had that was on my HTC HD2 (Leo) and after a while it didnt do anything anymore and I had to turn it in for repairs, I know its a different phone, but the symptoms are alike, so just my 2 cents
You didnt install any custom rom's or kernels?

...while on the phone? The screen goes black in a matter of seconds and isn't affected by the general timeout setting. This can be a real PITA while navigating a VRU system.
Have you tried going into settings/display/screen timeout?

That is the general timeout setting I was referring to, and it doesn't affect screen timeout while on the phone.
That's strange it shouldn't be timing out on you then. Maybe check the settings on the application your using and see if theres a reason it might be shutting off then.
i know when i had the mt4g and even my current G2x the display would turn off while talking on the phone then re-appear anytime i held it away from my head, probaly just the sensor.

Mine does this too.. If I am on a call, the screen turns off rather quickly. I need to be able to toggle the mute during conference calls and it is a real PITA to have to hit the power button first every time.

This sounds like a really stupid solution but I have experienced the same issue before hand. What I realized was in many cases when I was going to touch the screen my hand was getting close to the sensor on top that shuts off the screen while on a call. You know like when you put it next to your face to ensure that you aren't pushing buttons. Not sure if that is it, but just speaking from personal experience.
Mine does this sometimes , it just did it on this xda app and i know it wasent 30 seconds yet. also sometimes it doesnt lock just comes right back on after i hit the button

This is what I figured out after 20 or so times hitting the power button while on the phone.
The screen automatically comes back on in 1-2 seconds when you pull the phone away from your ear. Once I realized this, I stopped fouling it up by turning the screen off and on again with the power button. It would be nice if this delay could be adjusted, but it seems to work alright as is.
There is nothing wrong worth any of your phones as far as I know it's not adjustable yet.your phone does this while making a call to prevent your face from making a three way call or accidentally hanging up on whoever your talking to. Some one can correct me if I'm wrong but that's what I've heard and read several times and my samsung captivate did the same thing.
If you pull the phone away from your face so that the sensor can pick up the change in ambient light, or what ever it is that it does your screen should come back on shortly.to be honest
I kind of wish it would react faster, but it's still pretty good.

I noticed that the grays on my screen sometimes turn to violet for no reason at all? Does this happen to you guys as well? My speakers are also barely audible, I had an SGS2 and the loud speakers were very loud, are there mods or roms that address this issue that give them a little boost?
Overall an excellent phone, easily the best performing phone I have had.

The grays on my screen have never ever turned violet, that seems a bit weird. The speakers I mine are also pretty good, I would maybe take it back.
I noticed this when I first got my phone and my battery was almost empty (3% or less). If I power on my screen the grays would be fine but after I turn it off and on again it would turn violet. I updated to 4.0.4 and so far I have not been able to replicate the issue.
My loudspeakers are just extremely soft. I can barely hear anything while watching a movie, youtube or listening to music with the loudspeakers. Are you sure this is not normal?? Is there any way for me to test this with an app or something?
Download Volume+ from the Google play market. You can definitely see a huge difference when tweaking the speaker volume. As for the screen turning violet, it could be a screen defect.

Downloaded the free one and it worked perfectly. Does this app affect the headphones as well?
Another quirk I found with my GN is that every time something crashes or an error occurs the phone automatically asks me to send an email to report. Is this normal? Is there any way to turn this off? Do custom roms take out this nuisance?
Here is the email:

and it attached a text file and a screenshot
*never mind it seems that it's a bug report generated by pressing down the volume up down adn power button at the same time

purple screen when brightness turned all the way down isnt normal, its seems to be a common issue but screen should not be purple(violet)
Yes my screen is purple too and I have this popping sound when audible touch tones are checked. Will call Google tomorrow for a replacement.

I would go back to the store to get a new one.. the screen is not supposed to be purple. as for the volume+ app.. I'm a bit frightened by it. Okay the speaker is kinda soft when I'm being called, but the speakers were designed and calibrated for those volumes.
overriding that an break things...

Ok I finally got to reproduce the issue. If I open my messaging app on a place with low light condition or at night time (display brightness automatically goes down), the top gray bar which has the contact name number call sign and attach sign turns violet but strangely enough the lower gray bar which holds the new message icon has a lighter shade and displays the color correctly.
If I revert to settings and disable auto brightness and max it out and go back to messaging it becomes gray again. I also tried it on auto brightness on a normally lit room and it's fine. Anyone else with the same issue?
I've used the SGS before and remember that white's on my screen would be a little more grayish/yellowish. This must be an issue caused by pentile displays. I was beginning to wonder if it was my eyesight that was failing me lol!
Does this happen to your units as well?
Every time I end a call while on a headset, whether bt or wired, and using the phone while talking, the screen shuts off. I don't remember this happening on other phones. Is there a setting for this? If so I can't find it anywhere.

Can you elaborate a bit more? Does it just time out? Is it off at the end of the call, and you can't make it come back on?
Your phone will use the proximity sensor, when it's within proximity of your face. Aside from that, it will use the set screen timeout settings. If this is a timeout issue, change those settings, under your display options
If this is an issue with the proximity sensor, and the screen not turning back on as the call ends, then simply place your hand over the the sensor and remove it. The screen will turn back on.
I mean if I'm playing a game while on a call with a headset, whether bt or wired, and the call ends the screen turns off. Even though I'm playing a game or browsing, what ever. The screen turns back on fine, just annoying and inconvenient interruption to what ever I'm doing.

Same thing happens to me, but not all the time. Like when I am listening to a message and wants to press 7 to erease it and I find the display does not turn on as it should. I think this could be a bug related to the proximity sensor.

sort of annoying but I just hit the volume keys to get the screen back on...
I guess the most annoying situation, and this happened last night. Using navigator, I took a call on my bt headset, hung up the call and not only did it not return to my nav screen it immediately turned off.
I don't know if this is a bug or a setting, maybe a build.prop thing?

I can't pull up screenshots on my phone while I'm at work but in Application Settings under Development there should be an option to "Stay Awake" while on charger...it comes in handy when using Navigator/Waze. Downside; On GB it tends to overheat the battery but simply pressing the Power/Lock key will override the settings and turn off the screen.

That won't fix the problem of the phone going off after a call ends though. Every time a call ends my screen turns off, even of I'm using it during a call.

Anyone experiencing this? This is really the only that I don't like on the SXI so far. Is there anything in the build.prop that could change this ?
This just ticks me off.

Looks like I fixed it by adding the following tweak to the build.prop:
#
#Disable blackscreen issue
#
ro.lge.proximity.delay=25
mot.proximity.delay=25
I had to edit the build.prop through Flashtool, none of the on-device editors would save the changes.
It fixed speaker phone, but not headphone issue.

My main 2 concerns about the m7 that eventually led to me returning it for the Note 3 were:
- Overheating. My m7 was always hot to the touch, even when just browsing the Internet. Has this issue been fixed in the m8?
- This one is not a classic complaint, but it annoyed me personally. The lowest volume setting on the m7 was way too loud. When I would lay down at night time and, say, watch a YouTube video the lowest volume setting was always too loud and become annoying at night during sleeping hours. Hopefully the m8s volume pallete has expanded.
Also can the button bar be collapsed when playing games to make everything full screen? Is there an option in settings?
Thanks.

I don't know this necause I still don't have the phone but if not there will surely be such an option with custom ROMs
I had the HTC DNA which shared the same problems you mentioned about the m7. I played CoC for 2 hours last night and there was a noticeable difference in the lack of heat. I don't think it ever got hotter than body temperature through an Otterbox Defender. The DNA was a mini-furnace in the same type of case.
I watched a quick youtube video after we went to bed and it was barely audible on the lowest volume setting and didn't wake my wife on lvl 3.
Yes the bar disappears when you go full screen. You have to drag from the speaker inwards to make it reappear.

This is a feature in Android 4.4, so yes the on screen keys+notification bar can disappear in games, videos, and YouTube.

As far as overheating - I know what you mean. My M7 and my DNA both had that issue, and thus far I haven't had that problem with the M8 yet. It always seems to be fairly cool regardless of what I'm doing.
I had the same volume issue with the M7 - even on the lowest volume setting, I'd always feel like it was too loud at night. The M8 has a huge volume range for its speakers, ranging from barely being able to hear it to people on other floors being able to hear it.
When you're on a fullscreen application (videos, games, etc), the button bar collapses automatically (not sure if there's even anything you can do to prevent it).
During phone calls while using the phone on my ear, the screen will dim like normal and touch is not responsive... But after the call, I move the phone away from my ear, the screen will not wake-up and requires waking with power button. I can only recall a handful of times where the phone acted normally after a call...
Anyone else experiencing this? I am rooted w/ magisk and I have verified the proximity sensor is working (using Droid Info app) -
I am turning off adaptive battery not only to see if it helps with this concern, but overall performance and will update w/ changes
Had this happen as well. Not rooted. Can't remember but i vaguely recall this with other versions of android

Same. And it doesn't happen every time.
Right after I posted this, made a phone call and it blacked out again this time no power button, double tap, shake, twist, etc would wake the phone. Eventually after about 2 mins it woke up again...
Possibly unrelated, but about every 1 in 5 reboots my screen won't turn on. Stays black, no back light. The phone still responds to ADB and fastboot commands, but nothing will turn the screen on until I hold down power to restart.
Same here.its happened multiple times. naked Pixel here, not rooted. its annoying.
I've made/received 100 calls since Thursday, and it happened for the first time last night. I was able to get it out of black by accidentally doing a screenshot while trying to reboot.
Happened at least 4 times today. Just noticed an update to the Phone app was released, let's see if that makes a difference.
No screen protector, etc.
honestly after some more calls with this issue, i think my dirty ear and is causing the close proximity reading... after the most recent episode, i went to the droid info app and it was reading the sensor at 0 cm and after wiping the notch off, it started to read correctly (5.0 cm) >>> i dont really want to give the haters another reason to dog the notch but, in my case, i think its going to be an issue. i may switch the "power button to end call" on and see if that will alleviate my issue for now -

Thanks for the heads up. I have unrooted and naked 3 XL. This screen off thing was affecting all calls. If the remote party hung up, I was fine. If I got into someones VM, I had to sit quietly until the call dropped.
I added myself to the Phone app Beta program and updated. After several test calls, I think it's fixed.
