Hi,
sometimes the touchscreen of my defy stops working (but the phone is not frozen)
and the only way to fix it is to lock/unlock the screen...
does anyone have the same problem (and can help me)?
thanks
P.S
i've had the problem both with stock rom (2.2) and with cyanogenmod rc 1.5
When this happens, do the 4 buttons below your display still give you haptic feedback (little vibration) or do they react not at all?
Also, does this only happen when there's the normal launcher/standby screen active or when there's an other app active too ?
Did you undervolt ?
Edit: Also, this seems to be a hardware problem which seems to be well known in a certain German android forum but I cannot find much about it in here. In short, the digitizer unit seems to be broken for some people and locking/unlocking helps because it disconnects and connects power for the digitizer. The people there fixed the problem by replacing the digitizer (which isn't easy at all!).
It would be nice to have someone from XDA who had this problem before too, to confirm this problem!
First of all, thank you for the answer
When I have the problem, 4 buttons stop working too.
It usually happens after a period of stand-by, i don't undervolt or have some other application running than the launcher (ADWlauncher).
I bought the phone one week ago, if it is an HW problem, i can't repair it by myself...
I'd recommend to wait and see whether xda has other suggestions for you and if not, just check the Motorola hotline and ask whether they know something and if they do change it for free.
Also, what you describe fits perfectly to what I've read elsewhere (don't know whether I'm allowed to post a link here or if it were useful at all because it is in German). So it sounds like your digitizer could really be defect.
ok, even if i hope to solve the problem by myself...
News: They've changed the touch screen, but the problem is still present...
Can it be a sw problem??
Keep sending it back, they will replace it in the end.

Yes, the whole phone. They have two year warranties, but don't put up or make do, you should have a phone that works right

I use to get that problem on stock and some versions of CM.
Was definitely a software problem for me, havent had that problem since I'm on nightlies.
I wonder when it happens ,are you charging?

What nightly version are you using?
The problem happens even if i'm not charging...
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.

Obvious question here but have you tried a factory reset?

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?
I took the plunge to Android 7.0 Nougat, however I am having some major problems. Initially I had everything stock, and every once in a while my phone would reboot when on WiFi. Sometimes it rebooted within 5 minutes of booting back up, sometimes it would reboot 1 hour after booting back up. There is a whole thread about it here (note: not the bootloop issue occasionally talked about in that thread, although it could be related I guess): https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/kaMOvuf093Q
I was wondering if anyone else has run into this issue? It definitely seems to be linked to WiFi only. A bunch of users apparently narrowed down a few apps that triggered the reboots more frequently (Napster, for example), but the problem seems deeper than just a rogue app. Safe mode does seem to alleviate the issue, but this is not really an acceptable solutions to me. I tried another kernel (Franco's), but that didn't fix anything. I was wondering if anyone who had this problem had any success fixing it by changing ROMs or kernels? I also read that turning off WiFi scanning may also help--I will report back if this fixes anything.
Any suggestions welcome, thanks!
This could be part of the hardware issue that is happening, it talented to me and I finally have my phone back

I have a H-790 Nexus 5x on Verizon.
has been happening to me too -- reboots randomly about once or twice a day. (only realize it since fingerprint scanner does not work and i am forced to key my passcode at first login post reboot).
It seems that the H 790 production series are faulty
Nexus 5x reboot problems
Yes it would appear so. However, I have read one post in Google Forums that speaks of problems with H791. However, it could be related to the wifi problem. There are two problems - one is problem booting initially and finally phone does not boot into the ROM and cannot be recovered. This seems to be related to hardware problem in H-790 series. The other has been isolated to the WiFi scanning which causes a crash.

Yeah, I am definitely having a problem with the WiFi crash. Would a custom kernel fix this? A custom ROM would, right? Any ideas for a fix for this?

I thought the bootloop issue was hardware related, but not the random reboots issue? Ex: Safe mode fixes the problem for me.

IMO opinion this is just the eMMC dying problem that people have reportedly sporadically over the past 12mo. That problem has affected both H790 and H791. It likely just became more likely to show up after the 7.0 update because that was a large update, but by no means is a large update going to cause the problem by itself. The core problem is eMMC that was waiting to fail and could have happened just when web browsing but a large update just pushed it over the edge. Some phones you can do many large updates and never see a problem, then boom, one day randomly it just reboots and bootloops, with no amount of flashing or resetting making any difference.

If safe mode fixes the problem, then I was wrong. Try to find which app conflicts with the system and uninstall it

I really wish Google would fix this, this isn't really an acceptable solution to me. :/
I have a h790 nexus 5x and haven't seen this issue, knock on wood. However if it's linked to wifi scanning that was issued in another post you may try disabling wifi scanning to see if the issue is resolved. If not it's definitely the emmc in my opinion

If it is indeed not a a hardware problem, then don't wait for Google to fix it overnight. Besides, it may be the case that there is no bug at all, and you flashed a corrupted firmware. Your Best bet right now is to try some custom Roms and kernels and see if it fixes the problem. If you don't want to mess with user made firmware then I would suggest you to reflash the latest stock image form Google. If both of the above fail, the you are forced to roll back to marshmallow
You can try to disable wifi scanner on sleep,.
After the Nougat upgrade, I was having random reboots on my 5X (LG-H791). It always happened when my 5X was sleeping (laying on my working desk or on my bedside table for some time). After the reboot it was working fine again for some hours, so it does not seem to be the bootloop issue. I remember that I had a few rare reboots after upgrading to Nougat 7.0, but after the last 7.1.1 upgrade the reboots occured at least every second day.
Last Friday I had enough of it. I downgraded to the last stock Marshmallow 6.0.1 (MTC20K), and it didn't crash a single time after that.
My wife's 5X is having the same random reboots. The reboots are less frequent (but still occur) when WLAN is turned off. I will downgrade her's too, if my 5X is still still stable after the next weekend.
I wonder if this is a different problem, or if this is just a first symptom of the bootloop issue. If it's a bug in Nougat, then shouldn't much more (if not all) 5X owners experience these random reboots?

hi, i had the exact same problem with my nexus 5x from carphonewarehouse (uk), and when it was given in to repair i was promised money in return, however they ended up refusing to give money and gave a replacement phone instead, the only way to fix this issue is apparently to get a replacement, as it is most likely a hardware issue google haven't accounted for
I've had the random restart issue for a while now. I got a "new" replacement in November for a different issue and have been on 7.0 the whole time (until last week when I got 7.1.1 OTA). I'm going to call today about another replacement. I've just had two restarts in the last hour.
Hey all.
Switched from a Nexus 6P to the Honor 7X and only really have one main issue...
The gps doesn't lock at all. It can see ~20-25 satellites but refuses to use them. At this point I'm thinking MIUI is the cause, but please give some input.
Here's what I've done:
Factory reset
Changed power optimization/closing preferences
GOT A REPLACEMENT
Went outside on a parking deck above everything else (in 70mph winds!)
Reset A-GPS settings and updated through GPS fix apps
If anyone knows what's up, please tell me. Its pretty terrible driving and having the gps arrow spin in circles or be a few miles away from me.
I thought mine was broken, it didn't even register any satellits. Thankfully a power off/on cycle fixed it. You've done far more, even getting a replacement, so I'm at a loss to explain your issue, becuase it is working fine here for me now on a BND-L24. I used an app in the play store "GPS Status" by MobyWIA to test.
I have gotten the new one to work, now the app lights up like a Christmas tree with all the satellite connections.
Hopefully it stays, the other one worked initially. If anyone has the same problem and did all I did, get a replacement.

So it's noted on this thread for future reference, what were the additional steps you took, if any, to get the GPS to work on the new device?

Sorry for the late reply. I simply reset the A-GPS data with an app while outside
Gps is malfunctioning in my honor 7x.
Dear all,
After factory data reset gps is not working properly in my honor 7x, kindly advise on this to get it rectified..
Alright I've just been through this issue as well. After a factory reset you need to open google maps and then you'll be prompted to enable the GPS sensor. With mine even after a reset the GPS was very inaccurate and sometimes would not lock on at all. I wound up sending mine in for a warranty repair and got it back yesterday. So far it seems much better.
Edit: The images below are GPS status before I sent it in, the returned repair form and GPS status after I got it back. For some reason the after GPS image didn't load right on my first attempt so I'm trying again.
Hey guys,
About 1 month ago the screen of my OP3 broke and I bought a replacement on eBay.
After the replacement I encountered problems, which only occured from time to time. Sometimes when waking up my device the screen stayed black.(Like on every 20th attempt it happened once). After pressing the power button some more times, the device finally unlocked. I am 100% sure that the device always unlocked on uneven attempts which means that the device at least woke up software-side.
I was totally sure that my replacement screen was kinda flawed and it is a not fixable hardware problem.
Then one week ago I switched from official LOS15.1 to the unofficial LOS16 rom and encountered big differences. The problem got noticebly worse. Waking up the device was a pain in the a**, it never worked on the first attempt on this rom. It's not unusual that it takes between 11 and up to 60 tries to wake up the device which makes it nearly impossible to use the phone. As before, the screen at least turns on software-side after every attempt. I can see this because the hardware buttons always light up.
Now after one week I switched back to official LOS15.1 and voilà, out of 20 attempts, the device instantly unlocked 19 times.
I know it is hard to understand and even to analyze such kind of problems, but there must be some solid solution for my problem.
Atm my clue is that original screens always offer more functions (e.g. gestures) than replacement lcd screens. Those functions are always connected to the software(rom). Is it possible that there is any other function (e.g. anything related to tap2wake or deepsleep) which is able to prevent my screen from turning on?
To deliver some more infos:
- I used standard system settings on both roms to test this out.
- "prevent" accitential wake up is turned off
- tried to disable gestures
- I tested my proximity sensor via an app, it seems to work flawless
- waking up screen in twrp is also very difficult and needs around 15-20 tries. Does anyone see any pattern?

You most likely got a bad part. OEM like One plus and xioami are known for using something called product binning. Which means their parts have a higher failure rate then other oems. They also dont make extra parts really so what you got was most likely just a generic screen like you can buy at any shop in China.
Nothing you can really do about it except try a different screen but to be honest I would get a different device and this time dont skip on the price. You get what you pay for and when a good device is cheap there is always a reason. (why do you think most of the owners and mods of XDA run Iphones as their daily drivers and leave android for a hobby)

Hey there again. I know my answer is kinda late but I wanted to share my experience. So I tried like 10 different custom ROMs with different Android version. The problem got even worse sometimes.
Anyway a few days ago I installed stock OOS and the problem is fixed now. I could not believe at first, but after excessive testing I am 100% sure now.
Anyone can tell why? Is the stock display driver proprietary?
TBH I always used to use custom ROMs (mostly CyanogenMod and now Lineage. Now on stock rom O feel like everything is better than ever before. Battery life, performance. Some features even offer more customization than custom ROMs.
I always thought the opposite is the case since custom roms advertise things like this. I will definitely stick with stock rom for now!

Thanks for the confirmation. The cheaper screens seem to have an issue which is not faced by the costlier ones. I have found while roaming the threads that sometimes flashing OOS helps. May be a driver issue.
My understanding from what I've read, third party displays needed kernel support.
I paid OP to replace mine - no problems.
Hi!
I'm having a similar issue with my Oneplus 5. Had my screen replaced (new one: OEM) and now it doesn't wake up most of the time either using power button or double tap or fingerprint scanner. I tried everything that I read on forums but nothing worked. Now I seem to have found a solution that I haven't read anywhere yet: I turned off night mode and now it's working as it should. Actually, whenever I want to use any screen adjustment feature like night mode, reading mode etc the screen doesn't wake up. But if I keep the default settings, there is no problem. The issue is definitely the new screen because before that I used night mode all the time (I mean after dark). Now I'm still thinking if I should return the phone to the repair shop and ask for another screen (they offer one year warranty after the repair) or just deal with it... I mean these OEM screen are cheap for a reason (as someone had written here before) and there is no guarantee that the next one will be good, and I don't feel like waiting weeks again for an uncertain outcome, also I can live without said features (gonna miss night mode tho'). Any suggestion? Should I give it a try? Maybe the repair shop made a mistake during assembly? Anyway, I hope this comment will be helpful for those lurking for a solution for a similar problem.

Did you try OOS?
OEM screen is not cheap (atleast compared to what is offerred online).
May be you are better off with what you have since you have found a work around. Who knows what you will get next time?
Yea I have same problem it works totally fine on oos but on custom roms it is ****ed up

Thank you also for confirming that on OOS there is no issue. Looks like the cheaper of the online replacements have this issue while the costlier ones don't.
Funniest thing is I have a slim ROM backup on 7.1. and that works fine so like what the f--- any ideas people?

Hey guys,
About 1 month ago the screen of my OP3 broke and I bought a replacement on eBay.
After the replacement I encountered problems, which only occured from time to time. Sometimes when waking up my device the screen stayed black.(Like on every 20th attempt it happened once). After pressing the power button some more times, the device finally unlocked. I am 100% sure that the device always unlocked on uneven attempts which means that the device at least woke up software-side.
I was totally sure that my replacement screen was kinda flawed and it is a not fixable hardware problem.
Then one week ago I switched from official LOS15.1 to the unofficial LOS16 rom and encountered big differences. The problem got noticebly worse. Waking up the device was a pain in the a**, it never worked on the first attempt on this rom. It's not unusual that it takes between 11 and up to 60 tries to wake up the device which makes it nearly impossible to use the phone. As before, the screen at least turns on software-side after every attempt. I can see this because the hardware buttons always light up.
Now after one week I switched back to official LOS15.1 and voilà, out of 20 attempts, the device instantly unlocked 19 times.
I know it is hard to understand and even to analyze such kind of problems, but there must be some solid solution for my problem.
Atm my clue is that original screens always offer more functions (e.g. gestures) than replacement lcd screens. Those functions are always connected to the software(rom). Is it possible that there is any other function (e.g. anything related to tap2wake or deepsleep) which is able to prevent my screen from turning on?
To deliver some more infos:
- I used standard system settings on both roms to test this out.
- "prevent" accitential wake up is turned off
- tried to disable gestures
- I tested my proximity sensor via an app, it seems to work flawless
- waking up screen in twrp is also very difficult and needs around 15-20 tries. Does anyone see any pattern?

Yes, I have the same issue and I wanted to revert back to Stock OOS, but I just tried Caesium latest kernel, and the display wakeup issue seems to have gone. I'm using Havoc OS 2.3 based on Android Pie.
Guys the latest mad kernal reborn it wakes up all the time
At least for my screen
It used to be worse on all the other kernals
Finally found a solution
