I've been trying some WM6 roms on my M3100 (Black and two versions from Faria so far, along with HardSPL and the latest radio rom). While they all seem to work very stably for the most part, I find that if I turn the wireless on after a few minutes the phone starts reading constant tapping on the top right corner. So if I'm in landscape mode, the Start menu keeps popping in and out, and if I'm in portrait it hits the close button and everything I've got open disappears.
I've read about some Hermes having alignment issues, but I'm not sure this is to do with alignment, it seems to read other taps correctly if I touch the screen while it's malfunctioning, but it doesn't stop reading tapping in the top right.
A soft reset or turning the wireless off usually cures it for a while, but as soon as the Wi-Fi is on it can start again. If I turn the phone off fully, it seems to last longer when the Wi-Fi is on. It's almost like it's overheating and turning it off means it starts off cooler and has longer to heat up. Black was much worse than Faria's for this, as it had more stuff running by default. I had a devil of a time getting it stable enough for ActiveSync to work so I could flash something else.
I've tried searching the forums and I couldn't see anything, but I might not be using the right search terms. Has anyone seen this before and can you offer any advice/fixes? If not I'll probably make the long slog back to WM5!
Thanks for any help you can give.
This is a common problem with the Hermes. Search for touchscreen problems and you'll find you're not the only one with the problem. My previous one had the exact same symtoms, only it did it when the ambient temp was about 90F or so. I'd advise you to either look at getting it repaired, or look for another one. It's not going to fix itself

also try the business card fix on your hermes maybe your screen protector is hitting or the foam liner inside has jammed itself. or maybe something like a piece if dirt has lodged itself in there. there are many things that could cause this some being hardware other being dirt dust chunks of stuff
If it appears when it heats up (sounds like it does), chances are you're looking at a repair/warranty. Just sent one in to HTC with the same problem. I replaced the screen myself and thought for a day or two it was fixed, but as soon as it went on the charger for the first time the phantom tapping returned.
Thanks for the help guys! I'll have a look and see if there's anything trapped in the corner or if the seal is pressing on it and if not I'll get it repaired/swapped.
unfortunately, my M3100 does the same problem as yours, photoboy..
i noticed the problem starts when the pda gets warm..
anyway, tomorrow i'll take the "toy" to warranty.. and see how it can be fixed
Hello, what should I do? My front buttons sometimes dont work. I tried to flash official HTC rom, but it still doesnt work. But when I pres some of the left side button, temporarely the front buttons work. Have anybody some suggestions?
I have the same problem - front buttons "drop out". The only way to "re-initialise" them is to use the scroll wheel on the left hand side of the device.
It's definitely not Rom dependent. I've tried multiple roms (the official, Schaps (current), Faria, Shamanix, etc.) and it happens on all of them, so it's obviously a hardware issue. Not sure if there's a script that can be written to check and see if the keys are active, and if not, activate them.
Said to be BIG problem and possible onset of the dreaded WHITESCREEN SYNDROME....
Do a search on the forum and you might find out more...
Cheers...
I have exactly the same problem. The weird thing is that all LEDs work as expected, even the touchscreen works, but none of the buttons do, nor the ones on top neighter the ones on the bottom ... that's uncool :-(
i had the exact same problem, and in fact, its back again now because i didnt fix it properly
its to do with a loose d-pad connector. unfortunately, it involves opening up your handset, right down to the screen and reseating the d-pad connector and putting a small piece of foam or other plastic to keep it in place
good luck
Yeah, I get the whitescreen happening as well - but I thought that was a separate issue. If they are the same thing then I'll do the fix because I have the link to the whitescreen fix. Will post it when I get home
Here's link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2238093

I just did this mod, but went all out. I had the exact same things happening to me as the original poster. I had replaced the cable between the screen and main body of the phone from a broken jasjam, and that didnt fix it. I had opened it many times to try and reset connectors without much luck.
After reading the thread linked by the above poster, i opened it up and put a piece of foam where the O.P said, but i also place a piece just below it, and on the cable connection to the screen. That was really loose and when i moved it, it seemed to cause the white screen errors also.
Further, i placed a bit on the long connector back in the main phone.
Working 100% now, no problems with front keys. Heres hoping i dont get the problem back in 2 days!! ill let you know. I just need this baby to hang on till the Touch Pro makes it to Australia.
I might give it a go - the white screen is becoming more of an issue for me now. The buttons have long been a problem and I need to fix it.
I'm also hanging for when the Touch Pro arrives in Aus
Hi All,
I searched and searched and couldn't find anything.
I have an issue which occurs only sometimes, so i can't put my finger on what is causing this.
I have used different ROMs and happens in everyone.
Currently running e2 ROM 2.5 on ATT Tilt2. When i and writing a text message via soft keyboard, i decide to save time and slide out my hard keyboard. When I do they the whole system freezes and the only way to get it back is back popping out the batt.
Anyone experence this, or have any ideas
Thanks,
JC
Noticed same thing. Sometimes sliding open keyboard freezes the phone completely. Didn't try another rom yet but am at the point of drilling a small hole in the casing so that i can reset it with my stylus without opening the case.
The Sense makes the phone very sluggish also, maybe it has something to do with it.
Same problem. I flashed the phone back to the STOCK Rom and still the same thing
U will notice in due time, The screen will start to give out and fudge up as well.
TRy THIS
Plug in the wall charger and see the ORange light turn on to indicate that it is charging.
Slide open the keyboard, Most LIkely the orange light would disappear.
If it disappeared then slide the keyboard back slowly into normal position until the light turns on. Once the light turns on u should be able to use the touch screen and the keyboard
BUT who wants to do that everytime they use the keyboard? Turn it in for warranty
Don't forget to reflash to stock rom and Undo HARD SPL :]
I doubt its software related. This issue is a known. Like my tilt 2 likes to reset itself if I open or close the keyboard to fast/hard. Especially if I let it slam shut. I think its a manufacturer defect or flaw of some kind. The battery contacts are comin loose for that split second when u open or close at times. A fix I read about is to wedge a piece of paper between the battery and the backcover. That will keep the battery firmly in place and pressed down. Its so the battery contacts will stay connected to device power contacts. Try it out and see if that helps. I haven't done that yet. I juss make sure to easily open and close keyboard. If I let keyboard slam shut, it'll power down and reboot. Thnkx for the tip about drilling a small hole in side of case so it can be reseted like that. Good idea. I get tired of always taking the back cover off if I need to reset.
Also the hd tweaks cab has an app with it called hd soft reset or something. Press the icon and u can soft reset.

Guys today when i detached and tried to draw something with spen i saw that its not working, to make sure that my phone's internals are ok(i dropped i few times, wanted to be sure) i checked my bro's spen, and it was working on my phone the problems is spen itself, literally only spen stopped working how can i fix it, or is there an actual fix for it
Hey there everybody.
So I was using the stylus normally until the firmware update shows up, after a error on update the pen doesn't show up any more. I already tried to restore/restart the tablet and Bluetooth but without any success.
When I attech doesn't show anything, but when I remove pop a notification in red "charge your stylus now". BTW it already was in 100% b4 the update error.
Update: Apparently it's now showing as "K81 CS(DFU)" on Bluetooth and when I try to pair it says "couldn't pair with K81 CS (DFU) because of an incorrect PIN or pass key"
I have the exact same problem...any solution found yet?
Had this problem when i tried to update 1st time my gf Stylus on her tablet, first i tried with the (original) magnetic cover on and the stylus went onto DFU mode, i pressed on the button closer to the tip for about 10 seconds and the stylus went to normal mode(if i recall right). if this doesn't work try maybe the second button, or both at the same time.
Then i updated the stylus on my tablet without the magnetic cover.
Later received my own stylus and did the update procedure directly whitout the magnetic cover.
If the above doesn't work try to deplete the stylus battery, don`t connect the stylus to the tablet and leave it alone. i don't know the exact time it will last, maybe two days, or maybe a week or more, it has a tiny battery (25 mAh).
If succesfull reboot the table once, be sure to have the stylus linked but not attached to the tablet to be extra safe.
Good luck.

Hi there.
Unfortunately it doesn't work.
I left the battery dry and did all the rest, but when I try to connect to the pen in dfu mode it says "couldn't pair with K81 CS(DFU) because of an incorrect PIN or password".
Okay for some magical reason it worked today.
B4 I tried all the things again I opened the " service & feedback" app and started a "get Bluetooth log" and for some unknown reason it worked.

Thanks, but this solution is for those who can connect the pen but cannot update the firmware.
In my case, the pen doesn't even connect to the tablet anymore, so I can't change the contact sharing permissions.
Hey guys so I tried multiple message and I finally got it working.
I reseted the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi preferences.
I tried to hold the front button for 10 seconds.
I tried holding the back button for 10 seconds.
I called xiaomi support and they told me to reset the Bluetooth on Wi-Fi preferences and so I did that. Then I got a notification that my xiaomi pen update was complete and I noticed that now it was connected to my tablet.
Anyone else who didn't have luck by their side?
Still have the same problem. Showing k81 C's after update my miui to 13.1.3. any other suggestion what to do to fix it
how to solve this problem k81cs(dfu)
I got the same problem with the pen who appears as K81 CS(DFU), i'm trying a lot of things, but nothing works. If anyone got an other tip :/
I keep getting please chatge your stylus now eveen after 100% fix this so annoying
Same problem.
Mi Pad 5 global version 13.1.5
Mi Smart Pen was purchased from Amazon.de - and recently turned with "K81 CS(DFU)" issue.
There is no way to update the firmware as the firmware update is disabled. Attaching and detaching pen reports "Charge your stylus now" so there is some communication going on between both devices.
I've used the service and feedback to send the logs. Tried all workarounds described on XDA forums, nothing seems to help.
there is a lsposed module named maxmipad it removes bluetooth authentication so try it i dont have the pen
