wake up

I've notice this on on my unrooted 1.28.161.9.
It wakes up briefly without no intervention then goes back to sleep I also notice that some residual heat was emanation near where the camera lense was. I can not reproduce it now but it was a strange one ;-(. like some process was running in the background and waking it up. The wifi was turned off btw

Touchscreen problems

Last weeks i noticed strange behavior of my Z1c screen. Sometimes it start to react without touching (gloves mode off). Simply, i don't touch it but it starts to scrol screen or (worse) send some nonsence on Messenger to my friends, which is really annoying.
Also, sometimes, it reacts like one finger is already on screen, and phone is performing pinch and zoom etc...
Also, sometimes home screen or P and E button on keyboard won't work.
All those problems are solved with turning screen off and on, but problems are back some time after that...
Just to mention, i am on stock KK .157 rom, without root or any other modification.
Also, last month or so, air temperature here was over 40°C, so phone heated too much even on light usage, and battery temperature was going up to 47°C...
Anyone can help me? Any advice? Is my touchscreen damaged due to high temperatures or it's just software problem?
Hardware problem i believe. It's a common occurrence with the Z1C
About the automatic message sending thing : whenever your phone is in your pocket and someone calls you the reply with text message option comes up hence it sends messages automatically to turn fix this go to settings>call>reject call with messages>click on the messages and edit it
All the Best
it's not messages app but facebook messenger, and that's only while screen is on. so, screen reacts randomly sometimes.

Screen Wakeup in pocket

Hello, recently I've found that my device is draining battery at a substantial rate while in my pocket. And after some testing, I found that even while in pocket mode, the phone wakes the screen up upon notification. This is with ambient screen turned on by the way. So when I get a notification, the ambient screen turns on and you're able to interact with the screen. I guess what I'm trying to get to is: shouldn't pocket mode automatically disable the waking of the lock screen?
Thanks for the help

pocket mode disables interaction, not screen waking from what i understand. test it by covering the prox sensor and hitting the lock button on your phone - you'll see it until you uncover the sensor
also not sure why notifications are waking your screen - they never do that for me. what apps are you using? one of them must be turning on the screen, most apps don't do that
I had this problem recently and discovered it was related to the manner in which the phone/case fit in my pocket. With certain walking or sitting movements, the power button was getting pressed, which turned on the screen. It was highly annoying, but only happened once (so far). I twish the power button was much deeper into the case than it is.

Phone very slow after falling from 6 feet.

Yesterday my phone fell from 6 feet. Since then, it's deadly slow.
All CPUs seem to be fine, they are in performance mode, at the right frequency. Temperature is good (below 34°). LCD is intact. Touch layer works perfectly. Absolutely works correctly, but very slowly.
Display refreshes about once per second. With some apps, it slickers.
I can perform Skype video calls with both cameras. But Camera application makes the phone freese.
Some chat apps make screen flicker (blink). If only chat history is shown, the whole screen flickers. If virtual keyboard, only the chat history flickers, and keyboards remains still.
When I type anytthing, letters come on screen very slowly. VERY SLOWLY. After typing 2 lines, I have to wait 10 to 15s for all letters to appear. If I type more than 2 lines of text, some words are dropped (sounds like a 32 bytes buffer).
A few months ago, it did exactly the same (as described above); and then things worked fine again after 3 days.
Today, there is one tiny difference: if I turn screen off (via power button, lock app, or screen timeout), then, pressing power does not wake backlight. Only reboot can give me my screen again. But, apart from backlight, the phone keeps working fine: I can get incoming calls, and redial last phone number using BT earsert, or have video chat.
I presently have that last issue on my HTC Sensation, with yet an other difference: if phone (Sensation) is hot, even a reboot will keep screen off. I have to let my Sensation off for at least half an hour to be able to get screen work nomally. With the M8, any reboot gives me my screen back, immediately, even if phone is hot.
The way my M8 is slow makes me feel like it's missing video acceleration. But since this GPU is SOC, maybe it's an issue on the I2C bus between GPU and LCD ? I have removed and reinserted all ribbons; did not help.
If it was a software overload (what most google answers propose as reason for a slow phone), it would not had fixed itself last time. And it would not happen all of a sudden after a shock.

I have open the phone, dismounted most parts, disconnected all ribons, removed the two main PCB, and remounted it all ... twice, and now phone works almost perfectly. I have a bad contact in the top speaker; it has always been a known weak point of this phone; the connection is bad, and speakers are poor quality; so, sound is a bit low volume, and distorted when I use the device in hand (headset) mode; and sound is poor quality on this side when viewing a movie in landscape mode; I shall change this speaker again later (changed it already 3 times).
But regarding the bug of the day, after complete disassembly and reassembly of device, it works fine.

Question [BUG/Feature] Anyone having issue with touch being active even if phone is in pocket?

This one really grinds my gears.
I use wired headphones a lot. and whenever I do and the phone is in my pants pocket, the thigh touching through the fabric of pocket turns on the screen many times. So I disable double tap to wake.
Every time I receive a call and phone is in my jeans front pocket, random buttons would be pressed. call would go on hold, or mute itself, or turn on speakerphone, or open keypad, turn on record etc.. and it is extremely frustrating. even more so when a business client calls me and I accidentally put him on hold because my phone is so stupid it does not understand not to turn on the screen touch. The proximity sensor works fine because when talking on call it will turn off the screen. just not the touch. My torch gets activated pretty often when pulling the phone out of pocket. this is so stupid infuriating.
The rest of the phone is amazing. I love the hardware. its pretty fast, runs games fine. camera is also very good. but the bloatware and the bugs are getting on my nerves.
This bug is from the day I got the phone.
Realme UI 3 update did not affect the bug but actually made it worse as the torch triggering issue has gotten worse.
I have not encountered any major bugs in the new update apart from a bluetooth volume fluctuation bug.
Am I alone having this issue?
PS: I forgot to mention that several times the quicksettings toggles are also triggered Like Data/Wifi turning off, VPN getting activated, Airplane mode turning on etc.
