I am asking this because I am not sure if I should return my HTC One X back to rogers. I have the Canadian version of the HOX. My issue is that when I use multitouch, the second input sticks when i put it in the screen. For example when I play a game I use my left thumb to move and my right thumb to look and it will jump to the right. It will pause and then move too much. It is not a fluid motion. Is this normal?
I have not been able to find any information on this and the multitouch test app confirms my issue.

I have had that issue in CM9, is that what ur running? That has this issue.
I'm sorry I should have stated this. No my phone is not rooted I got it about a week ago. It is stock rom and kernel.
Have it too, but only on AOKP, and I like AOKP, it's fast, but it's annoying in games.
Turn off the 3-finger gesture of the HTC Media Link HD in Settings>Display>Gestures Menu
When I was off buying mine (2nd hand ) I had the same problem in every multitouch tests. So turning that off made it fix. It wasnt able to detect the 2 fingers.
Brought my phone back to Rogers (told them I was having wifi issues as well as my multitouch issue ) just to get a new phone and they suprisingly gave me a new one right then and there. Anyways this new phone also has the same issue. I have tried turning off the HTC gestures and am still having the same problem with the multitouch. I honestly dont know whats wrong.

The weird thing is that it works sometimes and sometimes like in the video. I am going to return the phone tomorrow, so sad it's a great phone.
Did you try a factory reset?

Yes have done that
Yep, same issue. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. While I'm playing a game and it doesn't work, i just press the power button and then press it again and unlock it and from then on it works flawlessly.

So I am not alone, what are you planning to do return it? I found one more on youtube that had this problem. It should be software related right?
Having no issues atall with mine that I can see, just tested it using 'phone tester' and it has no trouble recognising 10 touches which is way more than I could ever need it to do.

I hope the Galaxy Nexus doesn't have a flawed touchscreen like my Nexus One.
No issues here. Tested it with an app and it was able to recognize 10 simultaneous touches.
I had those issues too. It happened to me in Onlive app for the first time and then in some another game using two virtual sticks. I am almost sure it is software related (maybe some incompatibility with ICS) because I have just installed the multi touch tester from the marker and it is working flawlessly (10 recognized touches).
I think it could happened to every Gnex user from time to time, it is just a matter of time.

When you have these issues in games try the multitouch tester, I think you will get like me in the video then. I noticed it in games and after that I tried the multitouch tester. Have been able to play zombie age now without any problems.
That's what I was talking about. After using the multi touch tester and getting normal results, I am fairly confident it is the software bug in ICS or Gnex itself. I am not sure what is causing the bug to "activate" though.
I think I am going to wait now returning the phone now when so many seems to have the same problem
I saw this and my heart sank. As long as its working normally in several testing apps then I'm confident it isn't a hardware problem like the nexus one.
Probably able to touch up any bugs with an update.
-sent from temp HTC Rezound waiting for Galaxy Nexus
Could also just be a compatibility issue with the game(s) itself and ICS
try testing it in your hand, and not on a surface.
does it still give you the same bug?

Hello there,
I have had the HTC One X for a couple of days and it is truly brilliant.
However, I am worried that there are a few problems and I would like to know if anyone else is experiencing them and if they are solvable with an update.
I like to play a game called piano master, which requires me tu use up to four fingers at once. When I play though, it only recognises two. I checked antutu tester and it confirmed that it only recognises two fingers, yet HTC media link has a three finger gesture that works fine for me.
Also, applications often crash but can be repaired by locking and unlocking. Furthermore, the keyboard lags sometimes as well as certain elements of Sense going fuzzy for short bursts.
I appreciate any help or suggestions! Thank you.

Uhm, if you device only recognizes two fingers that could be a problem with the hardware (haven't heard the issue from other people so far). Perhaps try a Factory Reset and see if that solves anything ?
PS : Try some other apps to, could be that you just had the bad luck of finding two apps which don't function properly with the One X. (Osmos Demo uses 3 fingers to acces menu, search for it on http://play.google.com)
Thank you for replying!
I have tried many applications and they all have the same outcome, yet if I put three fingers on the screen and push them up, it goes to HTC media link mode.
I think the problem is that, with any application open, If I do that three finger gesture, it goes into media link mode.
Perhaps HTC has put a block on more than two fingers for other application?

Try the following :
Settings
Screen
HTC Drag -(Disable the option)
Try disabling the HTC gestures option in display settings it ignores more then 3 fingers ?
Thank you so much it has worked!
Do you think the other problems I described are fixable as well?

The other issues are known issues. All other problems are related to bugs and badly written code, they should be fixed when HTC finds the time for it ;-)!
So my first N7 had dead pixels and when I returned it I had to open 3 others in store to find one that was perfect. Or seemingly perfect. Twice now I've woken up to find my N7 off. The first time it happened I thought maybe I turned it off but last night I know I left it on. I did some searching and found that I am not the only one with this issue, but I haven't found any recent threads about it or any known fixes. Now I'm still on 4.3 and really don't want to update to 4.4 but if this bug was addressed I'll update it. Anyone here have this issue, found a fix, or updated and had the issue disappear? I really don't want to exchange it yet again but I will if it's the only way to get one that doesn't do it. Any insight would be appreciated.

Why don't you want to update to 4.4.2? It might solve the problem.
Anyway, the only device I had that had random reboots was my Nokia Lumia 520 which I straight away replaced.
I would advise you to do it aswell incase 4.4.2 doesn't fixe it.

I don't like the way 4.4 looks. I am a big fan of the blue/holo theme of 4.3. I have 4.4 on my N5 and that's enough for me. 4.4 really doesn't bring much to the table (for me anyway) that would compel me to update.
My N7 isn't rebooting, it's turning off. Never had a device that did that before. I'll probably update just to see if it stops it, and plus I have some bad stuttering when watching embedded videos in chrome and from what I've read, 4.4 solves that too. I really don't want to have to exchange it again, and I'm sure the manager at Best Buy doesn't want me to either lol.

I'm going to tomorrow if it does it again tonight. But the tablet is only a few days old and I already did a factory reset before I set it up initially.
Ok it just did it again right in front of my face. It didn't just go black in the middle of use, I picked it up to use it and before I could do anything it powered down, but did so as if I had deliberately done it. Meaning, the Power Off pop up was on the screen and it said "shutting off" the same way it does when you turn it off manually. That would lead me to believe it would be a software bug as opposed to a hardware one... am I correct in that assumption? Or can some hardware defect actually trigger the normal power down sequence?
Has anyone tried Ingress with the M8 yet. I'm curious how the GPS performs with all the metal in this phone.

No issues here. The GPS really shouldn't be any different for ingress than other apps. Though the ingress compass appears permanently broken. Other apps have no problem with the compass but ingress can't get it right no matter what I do.

I have no issues at all, not even with the compass. I feel like its not using the right drawables, buttons and other UI elements seem oversized but GPS, etc. work great.
Edit: The LTE coverage around here is great and I don't have to deal with the drop-back to 3G (which basically kills ingress) like I had to with the One S. That, plus the slightly larger battery makes this a much better Ingress phone than my old one.
Turn the back of the phone to the sky!

I got the compass to work with the m8 in Ingress! All you have to do is point the back of the phone directly up. After trying that orientation I tried some others and as it turns out, landscape works too. Keep in mind for all of these *working* orientations, the top of the phone is your direction vector.
I doubt anyone will play by walking around with their m8 turned screen down (and walking backwards), but the landscape orientations might help
are you all having any issues with Ingress after 1.54?

That happens randomly on every device once in a while. My M8 works awesome for Ingress. Great GPS & LTE & my compass work perfectly in any orientation. With Flar2's ElementalX & a couple of tweaks, I get 5+ of Ingress screen on time.
BTW, that issue I've never had on the M8, but N7 & N5. A wipe of cache & dalvik with a reboot usually fixes it.

Make sure you do a full power down of the phone (Turn off Fast boot in the Power menu) and bring it back up. I only see this issue when I switch SIM cards and doing a full power off fixes it for me.
app restart while opening media files and passcodes
Hey guys,
I'm having issues when trying to open media files or submitting passcodes.
The app restarts to scanner. Tried several things: set chrome to default browser, made sure YouTube is working, but nothing seems to do the trick.
Have a rooted M8, almost stock Rom..
Anyone ideas what problem might be ?

Mine is stock non-rooted. No issues here.
I've been able to replicate this issue on my G4 (815T Australian model) on a daily basis, just on the instagram app though.
I recorded a video of it. Slowmo part shows the issue
https://goo.gl/photos/F823e125PQckCPLp6
The screen seems confused and it just scrolls the other way even if my thumb wasn't touching the screen.
Factory data reset did not fix anything.
Are you able to replicate this LG G4 owners?
I don't use Instagram, so can't help with that app, sorry.
But if you go into Developer Options, and turn on "Show touch data", it might help add some more info to the discussion. It will show a trace on the screen of what the phone's touchscreen interpreted from your last tap/swipe.
It would presumably show a swipe up, and then back down, when you're getting these ghost touches that change the scroll direction. But perhaps it could also help show if swipes are interpreted the same way in other apps. It might help you learn a little more about what the phone is seeing, at least.
Thanks for the video and everything but why a new thread? Plenty of videos on the main thread.
Is another thread really necessary?

You can try to change the touch feedback time from short to medium under settings/accessibility/motor & cogination. This will reduce the touch feedback time. Give it a try, and see if it gets better.

Well this problem is only related to the LG G4 and IG for me...I don't have any other touchscreen problems with this phone. So for me I guess this is not hardware related. During the day I just had 2 small "ghost touches", way better than before. Will see how it goes the next few days...
Edit :
after a view days, it looks like it didn't solve this issue. Today I notice the ghost touches were there again in IG
Force GPU rendening under Developer options somewhat helped.
The new v10f on my Australian G4 didn't fix the issue as well.
Any updates on this? I had same issue. N this is a replacement unit after 2.5 weeks of waiting
Just day one and this ghost touch come up.
I also have this problem
Did you solve the problem?
I am facing similar issue.between...i am not using ig.
I've had this issue as well (not just IG) and sent the phone back for servicing. It was sent back to me with a report showing that they'd done a few things but the problem is still there. I'd been thinking I'd send it back in once more and ask them to have another look. I'm getting ghost touches everywhere and quite a bit, it's very annoying.
Someone mentioned there was another, large thread about this issue but I can't seem to find it, can anyone point me to it?
Hi, I posted this in a new thread yesterday as I couldn't find anything. Never thought to search for 'ghost taps' duh.
Every now and then when just doing normal things on the my phone it totally freaks out and all by it self it suddenly starts to tap random parts of the desktop, slides the pages, opens apps, closes apps, goes into calculator and a bunch of buttons are pressed randomly. It's almost like someone has hacked my phone and is trolling me by just tapping randomly on the phone.
Just today when looking at Facebook it closed the app, scrolled down notifications, data was turned off and wifi turned on.
I thought it might have been my screeen protector, bit of moisture in it or something. Took that off and still does it. Took out the battery for a minute and still does it.
It happened a few months ago then nothing for ages and now it's started again this weekend.
Thought it might have been only when connected to data but has now done it when offline.
Any one got a solution? Does a custom rom fix?
