Bottom buttons stops working.

Hi.
I have strange problem. It starts few weeks ago with no purpose..
Sometimes my bottom buttons doesn't work. It happneds for example, when I'm tying to scroll email with Dpad. Sometimes when i try to scroll thru files in total commander. After scrolling few lines, they just stop working. Upper buttons works. Screen works.
What I did untill now with no results:
- flashed official rom thru PC
- flashed AT&T Official
- disassembling and cleaning lower buttons.
It looks like software problem, but it happends on clean official roms without any 3-rd apps..
Some suggestions?
Thx

do a search for white screen in titles...ur problem may be the dpad connector comes loose and the white screen thread talks about how to fix it

try a new rom my wifes phone did the same thing with at&t official wm6 rom I have since flashed almost every rom from here and never had a problem hope this helps

Thank You. I've tried few roms.. Now running CRC 11
I think it's a hardware problem. I've found some thread about similiar problem. Now I'm testing
Thx Dillsnik

I had this problem with a Hermes and I couldn't fix it no matter what I did. And I tried everything.
It seems it's some weird hardware problem. Soon you'll have problems with the softkeys too.
If anyone fixed this (except flashing a new rom, because that doesn't work), it would be an interesting thing to know.

Well, when it happends, all lower buttons stops working. gren, red phone, softkeys etc.
I just plug and unplug connector few times and for now it;s ok.
I will report if there will be some changes.
Maybe it's time for some changes I think Kaiser's will be cheaper in a moment

mine has been doing that for months (lucky my hermes is my backup device). its really strange but then again expected after ive dropped it so many times as well as throw it at my colleagues when they piss me off.
1) dpad stops responding after some time.
2) call/end buttons stop responding
3) softkeys dont work after this
4) 90% white screen - i can still see whats on the screen but it looks like its washed out and saturated to a sever point
the only thing you can do is if your device is still under warranty get it fixed.

Warrianty it's a faaaar away past

I can't say with any certainty this will help anybody - but I experience this same issue, regardless of the rom... What I always do - hit the Email button... I know it sounds odd, but it always seems to work... It launches email, which (if i don't need it) I just close right away and then the other buttons seem to magically work... I know it sounds lame - but honest - it works on my phone...

If that doesn't work, you may have to try the following link regarding d-pad and white screen

I had same problems, d-pad buttons stopped working then I got the white screen of death. I replaced the ribbon cable but it didn't help. I replaced the d-pad pcb board and everything is back.

Where did You get this board? Ebay?

I don't think they send to Poland, but thx anyway..

Sorry for diggin this topic, but cellurar.dr is not responding my emails and I can't find/buy this board..

Camera issues: Circle-Ring in the middle - anyone came accross this?

So I have few issues with the camera. All in this album. Sorry if its already
reported.
2. This I noticed by accident. It actually doesn't show well on the original picture 7 picture in the above posted album. But I noticed that circle to be present in the preview everywhere even if very very very difficult to spot. And you need to have really good eyes to see it. However when saving the pic, the circle vanishes a little, but with little tinkering I was able to make it show. In the album is the original also to see. I tried another applications like ZoomFx or Camera ICS, and they didnt show this circle in the preview. I do not want to experiment with the pics taken from them so I can think this is just the original camera issue.
HOW TO: Just open the HTC Camera app, and look on the screen, right in the middle, and focus on near objects, hand, wall, 10-20-30-40 cm away, the ring shape should reveal itself when moving the phone. You should notice the shape always the same.

1. I had no effect on. And I wasn't reproduce this since (also didn't do so many pics since as well) Is this some effect or an issue?
3.
How to get rid of the pinkish, violet hue? When changing it to daylight its too much yellow. You can see how it should look like in the picture nr. 2 in the album. I took that picture (2), I focused on the tree/sun up , moved the cam quickly down and took the picture before it changed to the pink like you can see on this pic.
Thanks for any help.

I have seen that also on a few occasions, I have except once noticed the problem and closed the camera app and reloaded it and it solved the issue. Only once has the image saved like that.

Which of the issues ? 1.2.3 ?
That 1. might be temporary 3. might be solved by settings I hope
but the 2. seems to be strange. Also I have the feeling its not only mine HOX having this. It was really hard to spot. But its present everywhere, even if extremely hard to spot.
Next week I will check out 3 other HOXes to see if its there as well.

Issue 1 only, not the other two.

Kinda think that the 2 is actually and as I wrote up, more ppl will have it.
Can you try what I wrote? Just make the camera on, try to look on near objects through it. your hand, wall, table, something red-yellow, when you see a shape that's not changing and its staying always in the middle.
Best to make the grid option on, and it will be directly in the middle grid quadrant.
Its big so it fills it out actually, so not needed to look for something tiny 1mm.

Last bump.
I still think, many can see the 2 if they try. Would like someone who could explain or address this.

I have experienced 2 once, I am sure this is a software related bug.

I would say you don't "experience" this, you might "notice" this once. I believe its always there, maybe the software just filters it out to some extent but on some pics it will be visible nevertheless. Btw as I said the 2 I had to filter, edit till I could make the shape visible like that.

[Q] HTC One M8 Camera/Video Recording Bug

I currently have the HTC One (M8) for Att and have the strangest bug in the HTC stock camera app.
When I go into video mode and hit the "record button", the button will only work EXACTLY every other time.
Now this is what I currently done to try to find a solution to No Avail.
Force Closed the app
Cleared the Cache
Reset the phone many times
Factory restored the phone twice.
Now the Google camera works fine, so this seems to be a software issue. I have got the HTC Camera app to work only once
by resetting the phone, and not installing any updates from the play store for the htc apps, and att bloatware.
btw the htc m8 is not rooted, as stock as they come.
If you have any thoughts on how to fix this bug I would GREATLY appreciate it

I have noticed exactly the same thing. On completely stock phone on 1.54.401.10.
I am learning to double stab the shutter button! Almost certainly a bug HTC need to squash, unless it's in the manual somewhere. Do you also have terrible strobing when you use live HDR mode?

Try disabling the Google Now/Ok Google available in all screens. I think it interferes with microphone on the video camera. The first press seems to disable the Ok Google listening, then the second press allows recording. It worked for me.. It seems to cause crashing of the camera app in some instances as well, according to the thread here....http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/ota-2-22-1540-3-4-4-3-camera-app-t2831209

Good to know my solution is helping people figure it out. I went through 3-4 wipes/restores/flash to custom roms, thinking it was either Xposed or root causing it to figure it out, lol, so I'm glad that you guys didn't have to go through that.

Just for info.. I am on ARHD 7.0, and used velvet.zip to enable Ok Google in all screens. Guess camera 6.0.772726 did not like that.. Any updated camera.apk I tried was not successful either..

UPDATE Android 4.4.3 Update Fixes the bug, (Currently I have the Att model) no more issues with google now and video recording, the camera infacts shows the mic from google now stopping with a message

thanks for this I thought is was exposed as well but turning of ok google from any screen did the trick

This thread just saved my Saturday! On VIPER 3.1 and I don't use the video feature much but had to send a short instructional video via text on how to remove a laptop hard drive and the darn camera kept crashing...disabling Google now on all screens did the trick and saved me hours of frustration! Thank you!

I hate reviving old threads but I am encountering this now on my Verizon lollipop M8. I turned off the Google voice detection on all screens to no avail. Then I find a nearly identical setting in Nova Launcher settings. Sadly that made no difference either , but good to know if that is the cause for others.
I narrowed the problem down to AudioManager Pro. The moment I uninstall it the camera works great. I hope they update AM Pro soon but I doubt it. It hasn't had an update since 2013.

[ISSUE] Moto G7 Power - Display graphics error

Hi There,
I am new on the android scene and I have recently got my first Moto G7 Power and flashed Lineage OS onto it without GAPPS as I am not a fan of Google. Once the OS is installed on the device everything seems to work fine and I have had no issues with it. No today I didn't charge the device and the device died. When I power the device on everything is normal and then I lock the device display. When I go to check my next SMS message I find that the colours on the display are all messed up. It is kind of what I expect out of a computer when there is a graphics rendering error. I have some photos below;

I can get the display back to normal with a reboot of the device however after the first lock of the device the display does this again and I have not been able to get it back to normal
Any assistance is appreciated :fingers-crossed:

Thank you for your response.
I did follow all of the instructions in the documentation linked. I have not used the "Get Help" options as I didn't see those till today. I will also post this to these communities.
Additional information I attempted to take a screenshot of the issue though when the screenshot is sent to my computer the issue is not shown in the image.

I've been experimenting with the issue, and it possibly might be a conflict with the screen saver and the main display, as I think when the screen saver kicks in, it adjusts/shuts off the colors to the monochrome of sorts we see when it "bugs out". I tried shutting of the screen saver (Go to the options"Display-Advanced-Screen saver-When to start" and click "Never."), and it seems to be good for the moment. Not sure if this will hold as a temporary solution, as I have only been testing for a few minutes putting the phone to sleep and waking it several times, but I might be on to something...

This problem is happening with me too, it is when I plug the usb cable and block the phone, when it wake up the display are messed. Reset is normal again. Tried to turn off screen saver but it didnt help.

I'm experiencing this problem with other situations too. After more tests I saw in another site this workaround: Change your color profile [Display] -> [Advanced] -> [Colours] from 'Natural' to 'Saturated' and back. Colors will return to normal. (https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/-/issues/2832)
After doing that and what PhoneThe4th said I am not experiencing the problem.
Sorry, I didnt know how to delete this message and use only my upper message.

Sorry, but the above answer is only a temp fix.
Try this:
System - Buttons
( long-press all buttons, to see menu)
Back long press action-Kill foreground app
Home long press action-Kill foreground app
Recent long press action-Kill foreground app.
I did this yesterday (1/10/2022) .
Still working.

Weird notification UI changes in Android 11/OneUI 3.0 update.

I've been working with the new update the last few days, and noticed some odd changes made by Samsung.
Most annoying is this huge gap between my toggles and brightness slider/notifications. I have disabled the media controls and have no background apps running.
I think they attempted to make notifications easier to access for one hand operation, but we need a way to change this! Or give me the option to add all of my toggles into the gap!

I think it's the place for "Device and Media buttons". Try to activate in "Quick panel layout". There's "Show device and media buttons above notification" option. Maybe on then off.

I don´t have that gap in my Note 10+. Just below the 6 icons I have the brightness slider. Weird.

No gap here either.

I have similar problem. Only that i have a problem with whole screen notification window even though it is empty.

Here. I have tried it off and on and it's the same gap. I can swipe for media controls at all times even though my running media app is closed.

Figured it out! Tidal was running in the background but not showing, so I turned off the app notifications for it.

That usually happen when no factory format is made between hard UI changes.
The objects and placeholders stay there even though they are empty. Have you tried a factory reset after UI3 update?
That also happened on KITKAT to Marshmellow and was a usual issue when the update wasn't factory reset afterwards.
The UI would update and new elements were put in place but the old ones would still be there and originated large gaps or invisible toggles.
