Hi, just a question from a Nexus 4 user. As the phones are the same inside I am asking to see if anyone here has problems with having a unresponsive touchscreen? On the Nexus 4 you have to touch quite firmly on the screen to get a response, is it the same with the Optimus G? Also do you have any ghost touches. ie.when you touch one part of the screen it also registers in a second place. Thanks for your help!

No problems with touch sensitivity.
You do know there's a fix for that in the N4 Dev section.

Yes, but that has a lot of bugs, like the ghost touches, as it puts you on a older firmware . If the Optimus Gs are all good there should be no reason why the Nexus 4 shouldn't. Surely the same firmware would work?
No problems with touch at all.
No problems at all.. my G is very responsive.. in fact I could swear there are times where my finger has hovered over the screen but its triggered a touch oddly enough.
Well it's so far sounding good over here. There really is no reason the Nexus 4 should have problems if the Optimus G is ok.
on my docomo lgog sometimes I see this bug ie. in one place toch repeat on second place too.
example: I touch "l" but with "l" touched "h" or "j". I don't know what is this, may be in second update this will be fixed.
but this bug I see when factory reset phone and first use qwerty keyboard without change settings. When I change setting LG keyboard this no this bug.

It's a kernel issue. Apparently LG wrote better drivers for the Optimus. That can be changed by a kernel developer fairly easily though.

screen resolution shouldn't be a problem, I'm using swype on my rezound. Maybe an ICS incompatibility???

It's incompatible because swype doesnt see the resolution because of the Softkeys on the bottom (Screen res. is reported a little less then 720p).
As to getting an update on it...Doubtful there will be any before early 2012.
As I understand it Swype got aquired by a different company (Nuance), so they are in the "thinking box" trying to decide which software should be implemented where...

Swype please
I've been in the swype beta program for Android for about 2 years and still waiting for a bill to buy the product. Maybe through the acquisition by Nuance there could be an investment to make it a product (OEM licence or end-user) and then engage the developers to finish the excellent work started by the first team.
Start with ICS and pick up some of the tablet market too.

I am having issues with my screen. I have a yellow tint on the complete left side which is driving me nuts. I have read online of people exchanging their phones up to 4 times and having similar issues with their current device. Is it even worth exchanging, or should I just be happy with what I have? I don't want to have a messed up screen, but I don't want to go through the process of exchanging the phone multiple times. I just rooted the phone, transferred files, etc.
If you guys could tell me how many times you exchanged or if it is even worth it, please let me know.

I would say get it replaced b4 the return period ... because you'll be looking at the screen everytime you use the device and is it's main feature/selling point get it replaced , yes it's a hassle but you'll end up with a better phone with potentially no screen flaws =)

Yes I have tried the trinity kernel. I used the dead pixel fixer and ran the colors over night and that helped a little bit. If you use the phone at 100% brightness all of the time that helps a little too.

Why do you have problems with yours too? I have talked to people with the GSM version and I don't know if they have different technology or what, but I have seen people switch out their phones up to 5 times with CDMA versions. If it gets any worse I'm gonna switch it out, but I honestly love this phone way more than any other Android. Screw Sense and TouchWiz.

Hello everyone,
I have a big problem with my HTC Vision. After I've carried it around a long time in my pocket pants the screen do not respond, only after I turn it on and off several times (2-3 times) i can unlock the screen. And then after unlocking the screen it takes about 5 seconds until the screen shows a strange behavior. e.g. for an entry with the on-screen keyboard several keys will be entered without touching the screen, or on the home screen the cursor moves somewhere and activated anything without touching.
This happens everytime i turn off the screen and turn it on some seconds later (maybe 20-30 seconds).
After about 15 minutes out of the pocket the behavior is normal again.
During this about 15 minutes a reboot wont help.
Please can someone help me thank you in advance.
I have the latest CM7.2 rooted on my device, but testet with several other roms.
Greetings Steffen
try to restore stock rom and drivers. If it doesn't help, give HTC for warranty.

Then best guess is it needs a new digitizer, next best guess is the main flex. I would be surprised if it weren't one of these two

Thanks for your suggestion, i also think that the digitizer may have a problem, yesterday i bought a screwdriver an repair set for the phone, and then i will open it for looking inside an maybe see something or for only clean it.
But another question, what is the main flex, i never heard about it in past.

It is the cable that allows all components to be connected as you slide the keyboard

No I have not changed it yet, but I have my device completely disassembled down to the digitizer and thoroughly cleaned. But I've noticed no change.
I'm going to buy now, probably a new digitizer and replace the old.
I still remembered that I had such a problem already with the stock-ROM from HTC, just was not as strong and that is why I have not taken so seriously.
I will write my experiences then here in the forum.
Changing the digitizer fixed similar issues on my device.

Since G2 is here. I hope that LG will push 4.2 to G Pro soon.
I'm tempted to get the G2 as a second device. I just got my phone but like it too much to get rid of it just yet but the lack of updates is kind of disappointing.
Overall, I think that the G Pro is still a better phone than G2!

The only thing I would really like from the G2 is the OIS on the camera and the double tap to wake.
I hope the awesome devs will be able to port that feature (double tap) across to the OGP from the G2.
(or LG to include it as part of 4.2.2 or 4.3 update. Crossing fingers!!!)

I think If it will be ported display would not go to sleep ever and battery of G Pro will drain very quick.
I definitely will sell G Pro and buy G2, G Pro is outdated compared to G2, bud it has bigger 5,5" screen, the only one reason to keep G Pro. Everything else is already noncomparable
G pro still exceeds in MMC & removal battery dept.
Comparison :
Screen Same :
Ram : Same.
Processor : Not a huge difference in practical situation - no temptation to change.
Volume key placement : Verrrrrrrrryyyyy Odd , Will wait to see in hands before I can give any words on it.
camera : Improved with OIS & 60 FPS. Niceee.
New themes :------ We will get It.
Touch wake screen : -----Nice but battery eater.
Flip Style window cover: we will get it for sure.
Upgrade 4.2.2: We will get it , May be 6 months later.
Last few software features : Porting can be done easily. Just waiting for someone to post rom Image Now.

Google Experience
The pricing and feature set of the OG Pro really is incredible, so much so that it even maintains competitiveness with future phones like the G2. The only reason I haven't replaced my N7000 with one is because of the rumors that there may be a G2-based Nexus 5.
My main reason for switching phones will be to get better dev/AOSP support, and the only reason I don't already have a Nexus phone is Google hasn't made one with a huge screen. The OG Pro is amazing, but the dev support right now is almost nonexistent.
It really is crazy that this phone isn't far more popular.
Well if the FCC news is accurate, other carriers are about to get the G Pro. So maybe then there will be more clientele in terms of a community.
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda app-developers app
That's always the curse of carrier exclusive phones, it limits popularity & therefore limits dev support. But I think we'll start seeing development pick up.

I should have mentioned I had the VZW rep put on a Zagg but it had bubbles and was peeling so I took it off. Problem did not improve. The odd thing is it doesn't affect typing at all. I type fast and no lags nor unrecorded presses. It does happen randomly in any app or screen though. Never when clicking to open an app but clicking on a phone number in missed calls, clicking a link in the browser, clicking to open a tweet or tapatalk thread or basically anything anywhere on the screen. Not a dead spot. The second click always works. It's incredibly annoying when you kind of look for it to happen again and of course it does
MODERATOR - Would this be a legit topic for main thread or strictly a Q AND A thing? It would get more looks in a main Note 7 thread. Thanks

Some claim an update will fix it but I called VZW and Samsung tech support and both said they never heard of any problems at all with Note 7. How can I hope for a fix if they don't know there is a problem?
