[Q] Touch Screen goes nuts after root/bloatware removal?

I recently rooted my phone and removed some bloatware (all backed up btw) mainly the ones on the safe list in the thread posted about it here. I don't know if that is what is causing the following problem, but just to preface that if so.
I noticed it yesterday when I was trying to type something using swype, when I finished letting go the screen started to randomly tap and drag letters without me even touching it. I stopped had to turn the screen off/on to get it to stop. I also notice that if I hold the phone vertically and move it around a bit it starts to drag the home screens back and forth. Also when I am at the phone menu it's hard to tap the exact number I want. If I tap 5 say, it will randomly either tap 5 or 8. It's liek it's not calibrated.
So I go to the display to calibrate it and it kind of sort of alleviates some of the other issues, but I still have inaccurate touces. Is it a program I removed perhaps from htc that is necessary for the screen. Do I need to update the firmware on the rooted one?

[Q] Post Jelly Bean Issues Here!!

Is anyone having Jelly Bean issues? I am having the following issues:
1) Marking Messages as Read. If I have an unread message and the Messaging app is open under the home screen, if I use the lock screen shortcuts to open Google Now, it marks the message as read and then opens Google Now. It never did this on ICS.
2) Home Button Issues. If the screen turns off and I hit the home button to turn it on, it goes directly to the home screen. On ICS, it would just go to the most recent app (I have mostly avoided this happening again by enabling S Voice, but there's got to be a solution). Also, when I hold down the home button to open the Recent Apps screen, it will sometimes go to the home screen, and then open Recent Apps. Also, sometimes there is a delay between when I close an app and when it shows up in the Recent Apps screen.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Your help would be much appreciated!

I'm running FreeGS3 with Ktoonz 10/28 kernel and the blue battery bubble icon (with mod file flashed first) and I have the following issues.
1) The LED isn't as bright when on the charger when the phone is on... the red and green are quite dim. No issues when the phone is off (believe this is directly related to the JB ROM itself.
2) After 7 hours on the charger the battery was charged to 98%, When I was running w/o either the kernel or battery morph no issues.
3) Something took away the boot animation as I have just a black screen after the Samsung Galaxy SIII screen until you see the home screen.
Thanks in advance for detailed answers

Home button
I also had the same issue with the home button since s voice was frozen, enabling s voice double tap seemed to be the only way to fix. Hopefully a way that does not require s voice is found soon.

Trivial issue with CM10.1's lock screen.

OK, i know this is trivial, and not a big deal at all, but I am a little OCD about stupid little things...and this bothers me to no end.
i have no lock screen shortcuts
when i go to unlock, i used to be able to move in any direction and have the unlock icon in the white circle follow my finger when i got outside of the lock ring.
but in the last few nightlies, no matter where i go, the white circle with lock icon in it, ALWAYS goes to the right. if i go up, it goes right, if i go down, it goes right. ect.
its hard to explain, but press the lock screen "lock icon" and slide it to the outside of the circle that shows up, and you will see a solid white circle with a black unlock icon in it. thats the circle i am talking about. i want it to follow my finger, and not default to the right. any way i can do this?
again, its a trivial issue, but it bothers me to no end. i ended up uninstalling because of that. and now being on stock 4.2.2, i get what i want
does it bother anyone else, or just me?

apparently i am just a little too O.C.D. for custom ROM's

(Q) What is this gray bar with a thumbprint like icon, and how do I make it go away?

As of today I have started to get a gray bar that appears on the bottom of my screen with a design that looks like a thumbprint on it. It covers the bottom part of my keyboard making the space and return keys completely inaccessible. The only way I've found to temporarily get rid of it is to restart my phone. Anyone know what this is?

hold home and swipe up to see if it goes away.

How about a screenshot? Install a new app recently?

I took a screenshot, and tried to post it with the initial question, but the forums won't let me post it since I have never commented here before.
No new apps, but I had just recently started using the car dock. It did it probably about 15 times that day, but hasn't done it since, and I didn't come back to look for answers until the next day.
Thanks for the responses, and if it happens again I'll try Tidbits suggestion and post if it works.

[Q] Viperrom Stuck in full screen mode -Status bar and bottom hide until I swipe

Stuck in full screen mode -
The Status bar and bottom bar auto hide. until I swipe to bring them back. How do I disable? On viper rom.

Wrong place to post. There is a thread for ViperROM believe it or not.

I wasn't certain it was because of viper rom, as I can find no relevant setting in Venom tweaks to fix this. Is there a core Android setting for this? I've searched extensively and found nothing.

I believe this is in the right forum now.
any ideas?

ok well... strange that my android started going full screen on viperrom suddenly and no one knows how to change it back. guess it's time to wipe and start over.

I know this is kind of an old thread, but I just had the same problem. I think I put it in fullscreen mode while it was in my pocket and couldn't figure out what was going on for about 2 hours. For anyone else that encounters the same situation, here's the solution:
Press and the power button. At the bottom of the "Phone options" window that pops up is the Fullscreen mode option.
Also found that when I take it out of fullscreen mode, I have to reboot it to get the Status Bar to stop auto-hiding.

Thanks
you're a life saver,
i dont know i missed that out, i rebooted the phone a dozen times and scoured the venom tweak settings for hours to no avail
thaks again

buddy_lee - You're awesome. Thank you. I'd been dealing with this for a few weeks and it was driving me insane. I"ve looked through every setting on the phone, viper, and nova and couldn't figure it out. Can't believe how simple it actually was.
THANK YOU
