Dear aLL
I have been using custom rom (almost all of them) since i bought WFS, Recently it gives very annoying error like below :
Have to try several times to unlock the device
Some keys(w,r,a,d,c) are not working, after some while keyboard goes OK
The most thing is at some moment some place don't response while other do without any problem
Are these all of problem relate to custom ROM or my device getting an issue ?
If so, is there any tools/apps to check the problem finding/resolving ... ?
The problem creating very annoying situation when going to call emergency.
Give me a hand...
I know that there are a lot of phones like your's too
Same here
Same here.I am fed up by this issue.Never works when we are in a hurry. The problem became worse after the 2.3.5 upgrade with the new screen lock. The touch works absolutely perfect most of the times but sometimes it just behave abnormal.Does this have something to do with the internal memory ? .I am thinking of giving the phone to the service center to have a check before the warranty is over. Sometimes if the hands or the ear is wet with sweat the screen gets wet and that will affect touch response but cleaning it seldom helps. sometimes cleaning dust near the sensors helps. Wildfire s owners please share your views.Does rooting helps ? seems not from the OP
Sounds like a hardware issue.
When I first got my wildfire s, I had to get a replacement sent the next day, my problem was when charging, the touch screen would totally do its own thing eg scrolling, selecting icons all by itself, if I tried to scroll or swipe it would go mad and do completely messed up things.
Unplug the charger and it was perfect again, I read some other forums different HTC phones have this issue and seems to be an issue with the phone not being grounded properly.
My replacement was and still is perfect.
If you are still in warranty I would send it into HTC to be checked and repaired.

I know this problem，me too，I only change the charger，and never do its own thing again.

What do you mean by flash the system.
My WFS behaves the same way, cleaning cache partition and dalvik cache helps but after few days problems show up again: it it very hard to unlock the device, if for instance I ulock it in the phone app, the phonepad wont work. I have to returrn to home and press phone again and then it works. It is very annoyng anyways. Rooting and flashing a custom Rom did not solve my problem.

I would say its probably faulty hardware, if you still got warranty I would suggest using it mate.
I do not think it's faulty HW, actually I did send mine in service and after they did a factory reset the unit was working fine. As I mentioned, after wiping the cache the phone performs very well for a few days, then it starts playing crazy.

Did they fix it? It is very hard to replicate this behaviour. The moment you do a full wipe it is good for some time. All the service centre in Romania did was to re-install the rom and they said it's good...

Get to service center . I think, you couldn't fix it at home.
As I stated before, I already sent it to the service centre. All they did was wiping the device and reinstall the ROM. Does anyone have an explanation as to why the digitizer is sometimes broken and sometimes not?
Clearing the cache solves the problem temorarily, so I don't think it is a HW problem, but maybe I'm wrong...
I just don't wanna go through the trouble of unrooting and returning to stock if I don't have to.

What is digitizing... yes I agree that if its OK for most of the time then it may not be a hardware issue. Still if we go back to the unrooting phase, downgrade from GB 2.3.5... will it solve our problem...../// who knows

Thanks for the info. Can you please check if his issue was permanent or only appeared after a while?
I am still puzzled why the touchscreen module would only play crazy after some time.

I had the same issues on the previous version of GB, so I think it doesn't matter what ROM I am running...

i have a strong feeling that this has nothing to do with the hardware.That is why it works "most of the times". The main problem is that we could not replicate the problem to show to the service center people. It happens most of the times but sometimes it will work when we are about to show the problem to somebody.I am on stock 2.3.5 and the problem is a constant head ache for me.I love the phone otherwise,its an awesome phone....

Personally I would say Software, but unfortunately nobody knows for sure.
i have another problem to send "mms" i have correctly configured the APN
I bought 2 One X's, one has screen jumping issue and was sending back for replacement, another one doesn't has issue......yet. I believed that it is a hardware issue but just my 2 cents

I may have solved the problem but I'm not sure will carry out tests if the problem recurs to me more, I will tell you how I did it
I pretty much solved the problem of flickering and jumping screen.
I installed from the market ZDbox, enter "system cleaner" (to clean the cache) then press "clean all cache"
let me know if it works

Does it still work for you?
I tried your idea and i worked right after i cleaned the cache. After a bit it started to jump again.
Really hope this is a software problem that can be fixed with a patch. Anyone heard anything yet?
What are people doing with this ? I am having the same problem and I am wondering if I should send it back or hope that some kind of software update will fix it.

Believe me, this is a typical software glitch. I had it 2 times in the past 5 days, and most of the time it was triggered with the now known taskbar glitch.
At the moment when i turn my phone into sleepmode for a half minute or so and turn it back on the jumping is gone.
I can't imagine that this is related to a hardware fault. I have seen many hardware and software issues on computers/other devices throughout my life, and this one is acting like a typical software/gpu driver glitch
So what would you recommend? To send it back or to wait for HTC to release a update. I am not sure what to do.

I would wait indeed, or you can try out a custom rom which has the 1.28 update already baked in
OTA 1.28 is out now, so you could try that first before sending the phone back
I've tried 1.28 and 1.29 updates but the jumping still occurs. Annoying.
What's up guys, i'm new here . Three days ago, HTC sent back my phone after a checkup for a vibration problem. They said that they did a software update (false, it was already 1.29.401.11) and sensors calibration. Yesterday, the phone stopped vibrating again. What should i do now? I think that is a software problem (stock rom, never rooted). I'm sorry for bad english . Thanks

Don't think you can do anything much other than give it back and ask for a replacement as it's the second time this has happened... Also, try doing a factory restore and see if it works.

I dit it, but this should be the third time that i send it to assistance. The first one was for a g sensor problem, resolved with a replacement of motherboard, but when i sent it the vibration worked perfectly, i suspect that they broken my phone.

mine keeps vibrating every 30 min or so
i cant figure out what's causing it any suggestions what it would be ?
not a incoming email vibration notification , not a wi-fi drop out vibration notification.

They actually scammed you by saying they updated it(when it was updated already like you say) You should go back, yell at them and take out some frustration if you wish =P
Don't root your phone to install another rom, try fixing it as is on stock rom.
I would try these:
1)Factory Reset
2)Update to latest FW
3)HTC Diagnostics Test (Has a vibration test)
4)Haptic Feedback On(To see if it vibrates on typing and tapping and such)
5)Phone Ringing with vibration
If any of the above work, then its definitely a software problem.
If they don't, either way you have to go back to HTC. Try getting a replacement. Say you're tired of coming back again and again to get your phone fixed, "Give me a replacement or My Money back"
I read another post a few weeks back where the user was experiencing these mechanical sounds on haptic feedback(I also have that problem) but his vibration stopped altogether. He got his HOX replaced.
Anyways Good Luck.

I don't recommend hijacking the thread, create your own thread
Sorry I'm probably stepping on his thread too, but please point in any directtion before I have an inoperable phone and a hard time getting HTC to cover.
However, I an issue that will f-up this phone I'm afraid. I have on a daily basis what I would describe as an alarm of some sorts (can't duplicate) that runs about 15 seconds once to twice daily at full vibration. Not rooted and have reset 3 times.
If you've ever run a battery drain program with full vibration on. Not good for the phone. I'm at a loss in this one, really dreading tech support or my local store. Will run the HTC diags but any other ideas greatly appreciated
No receipt, no box and I traded for it on Craig'slist 2weeks ago..

My friend had the same problem with a HOX - it wouldn't vibrate at all. He tried doing a factory reset and playing with settings, but nothing worked, so he sent it back and got a replacement. I'm not sure you can do anything about it since it's likely a hardware problem.
Hey guys, I have had my HTC One X for two months. The screen sometimes jitters and parts of the system ui blend into each other. It happens at random times and only lasts for a second and sometimes the screen takes a long time to wake and only the capacitive lights turn on. It happens in both apps and on the home screen. This was happening on stock rom and my phone wasnt rooted. I also rooted it and flashed a custom rom and i still had the problem. I also updated the OTA to the latest release but that didnt solve the problem. Anyone have an idea on how this problem can be fixed? Thanks.

Hello everybody,
my girlfriend have an a Sony xperia s and for awhile when she having a phone call
and put the phone against her ear the screen does not turning off the buttons are been pressed
by her cheek, this causes a lot of embarrassment when the call is disconnected in the middle of an important call,
most of the time the button just pressed and the other side just hearing an annoying tone.
this is annoying and i don't know how to help her with that.
is there any good solution for this problem?
i tried to look for this problem in the search engine of this forum
and all i found was the same problem but in HTC phone that runs Windows Mobile, that didn't helping me...
thanks for anyone who can help me with that...
Try rebooting/resetting.
If problem persists then the proximity sensor may be faulty. Take it to Sony, coz it's a hardware problem.

Perhaps her phone is dirty, so the sensor won't work.. You know women, they don't care about technology.
Clean the screen left next to the Sony logo real good
My first opinion is hardware issue. It can be said that the proximity sensor is faulty. My second one is software. maybe she install a program that uses or control the proxomity switch that causes it to malfunction having a conflict with other programs. My third is that, as early as possible if its hardware issue, go now to sony service center for them to figure it out, use your warranty card, that may cause no additional problem right? Smile!
You could try re flash the firmware with flashtool

i think that maybe it is an hardware issue,
she don't installing any application just by her self, and she don't have many apps.
i know almost every app on her phone (cause i have them also on my SGS4) and i don't think that the apps are the problem.
but i will look for an app problem anyway just to be sure before using the warranty.
thank you guys...
UPDATE:
i've checked the phone sensor with the new app cpu-z and the app shows that the sensor is working and identifying my hand
when i covering it.
but still there is the problem that the screen does not turn off when she's holding the phone against her ear,
i've watched while she's talking in the phone and she's holding it as it should be.
but as i see the problem is not happening in every phone call but it is happening a lot.
any idea how to solve this problem?
Hi, Im new to the forum but used roms for another device in the past.
I wasnt able to find information regarding to this trough days, my phone touchscreen stops working randomly on stock rom [15.1.c.1.17], have anyone had this problem? Is it sw or hw related?
Thanks, phone is awesome when the ts works but this is driving me crazy... thanks
If you haven't modify the software then it must be hardware related.
What modifications did you do? Did it have the problem from the start(when you bought it)?

If it doesn't happen under specific conditions (for instance, while playing the game, or during the call), it is most likely hardware related, my best bet is that screen digitizer is either faulty or not connected properly to the motherboard. Have you dropped/spilled something on your phone? If not, you should return your phone for a warranty repair.
Its randomly occuring, its fixed after reboot or it will work itself again after a while, sometimes a couple of minutes others a couple hours, phone is new, bough on jan 17. Havent dropped it or spilled anything on it... problem is I updated from stock rom from the provider to an official by sony and dont have a backup of it :/.
