Anyone else noticed that pressed state (ripple effect) of buttons now after the latest update is barely visible ?
Strangely, not all the apps have the issue, but easily seen (or not seen ) in playstore, photos, signal, etc...
On the other hand, for example dialer is OK.
Any idea if there is an settings option to potentially revert it to have it nicely visible ?

I have recently upgraded my DHD to 2.3.3 and everything seems to work just fine except for one thing.
In the dialer, the area above the buttons usually show my recent call list and if I press any numbers it shows quick contacts lookup.
After the upgrade however, this area is blank. I played a bit around with the dialer and noticed that if I press a few numbers and then delete them again, the blank area is suddently showing the contacts list again (as it is supposed to). After that it works as it normally would in the dialer.
I talked to a few others which have similar problems but we havent been able to pinpoint a pattern for why this happens.
Anyone inhere have the same problem and more importantly - anyone that knows how to fix this?
I did a normal upgrade without factory reset - one of the other guys with the problem did a factory reset as well.
If you are using a non-stock launcher (ADW / LauncherPro etc...) you must delete the shortcut from your homescreen or dock, and re-add it. Also, if you launch phone from the app drawer, it should appear normal.
How did you work that out? Very impressed! Been bugging me for days.
After a few months of use...
Notifications - opens every (ear listening) call, apparently my ear shape hits the top bar and the machine thinks I want to see notifications. Since the machine knows it's orientation - it there a way to prevent an ear-activated notification request when phone is vertical, or during a call?
Screen overlays - I bought some and added one, it got scratched and I peeled it off, and now I see at least 2 more! I think I see a glass that fills the frame, a smaller overlay, and another, smaller overlay. My basic thought is to keep peeling as they scratch. I want to make sure that if I get to 'glass' that I have not messed anything up - a decorative overlay (maybe with the browser size slider markings?) or a functional part of the touchscreen assembly. Is there anything I can mess up if I just keep peeling?
Thanks any and all!
Eep, I know know if I'd "keep peeling". If you feel like the screen itself is pulling back, I wouldn't do it. Resistive touchscreens do have 'layers' if you will...
Weird, in WinMo the prox sensor should work just fine - make sure it's enabled, the screen should turn off when your face gets close to the screen.
See this video for a demo.
Thanks for reply.
I'll look for cabs that may have affected the sensor (basically OEM update + a few goodies) as I can find no HTC/WinMo setting.
Were you saying you don't know if you'd... or now know?
Should there be a factory layer, exposed the user, that I should NOT peel off? ( I knew factory touchscreen at one time, they were soft overlays over CRT's.)

I have no idea, since I can't see what you're peeling. I've never completely disassembled one of these, but I've seen pics/videos. I also know a little bit about how touchscreens work (a little!) and I know there are layers that you should not be peeling back - without seeing a detailed pic or the device in person, I don't feel comfortable saying "yea, peel away" when you could be potentially damaging your phone.
OK - I removed all cabs, still not working, did reflash, same, did task 29 and reflashed, still not working.
Found something called 'Advanced Configuration', played with Light sensor settings, and now that works great, never knew it didn't before (auto did nothing).
Is there something similar for proximity settings? ( I would have thought a connector inside was loose - that's why I messed with light sensor - but that 'healed' and now I want to 'heal' Prox too!)
I peeled down to a full chrome-filling ?glass? layer that looks thick and just a bit wavy - still no Prox activity - and put a new screen saver on that - so that's not it.
Anyone know settings/cab/registry for Prox activity?
Still don't have proximity function... I'm thinking in call, object (ear) near HTC symbol should blank screen and also deny touch response.
I downloaded registry editor, and found some settings. Tried, well many combinations but no results.
I do find that some don't stay set - I change them, and reboot, and they go back to say "0". They are ProximityDetectStatus and ProximitySensorOn . I'm thinking (supposition) resistry settings are static - that they do not reflect machine activity, only editor or user's other software actually changing values to store - rather than indicators of current machine activty (button is now pressed, button is now un-pressed). Is my regedit process (change, close, boot) correct?
I'm left wondering - are registry settings reflective of current activity while regedit is open or even the moment it opened? IE, can I use regedit to show me if a switch is pressed?
Anyone else, help?
I'm on OE ROM, CHT and CHT editor
Hi,
at times, to start "app" in the lower right I have to touch icon (with your finger) with greater intensity (or repeatedly) while for the other icons (for example, "post") I have to touch with a very slight touch.
Also happens, and that is more annoying, is that the icon "app" sometimes is locked: you can press as you want but nothing happens. In these cases, however, if you touch something else (for example another icon) and then immediately press again app, or wait a bit of time without doing anything, everything goes back to work ... it's like as if something blocks the icon "app ".
The touch test (*#0*#) and everything seems to work correctly (the dots blacken without problems and even lines are drawn well in the zone of the icon “app”).
I am beginning to think it is a sw problem and not an hw problem. I do not know what to do. What do you thing about? Can you help me?
Anyway ... thank you very much!
Greetings
Hi,
The title speaks for itself.
Big issue here, long-press on the screen of my D855 doesn't work anymore.
Touchscreen is fine but long-presses just acts like a normal press.
I can't tell when exactly this bug started but it's really annoying since some actions can't be done without it (can't move icons, play specific games, etc...)
The lower end of the screen works fine tho (navigation buttons and apps dock) but everything above don't.
Some rare times it works with no particular reason.
Can someone help me with this ?
Is it hardware or software related ? (updating firmware to V21a didn't solved my issue).
Bu chance u aint got a glass protector on do you
No glass protector.
Stock Rom.
This is a really weird bug because it works 1 time after a "pinch to zoom" for exemple and then again it stops working
Off top of my head try if ure rooted xposed like g3tweakbox or gravity box one of 2 change long press behavior or or goto acseability and change touch feed back time to short
I have the same problem, whenever I scroll down/up, it goes directly at the bottom/top. Sometimes, it goes back to normal, I don't even know why but frequently it goes back to the problem. I had already gone to Accessibility, ..., set it to slow and it seems not to work. What to do? :/
Hello,
I am on 6.0 with my G4 and my issue is that since the mobo got replaced (= I had to build the system from zero, bootloop ftw), I cannot toggle which applications should be hidden on the lock screen, i.e. I don't want anyone to be able to read my incoming mail/sms/token etc notifications, but I want to set the facebook's messenger to 'non sensitive' so I can see what they want without unlocking the screen (like with spotify, I can fully access the notification with pause/fwd/rev etc.)
Sorry if this had been discussed before, I couldn't find a resolution for my issue.
+ before mobo replacement, it worked like that (messenger notifications were visible, sms/etc were not.)
Thank you for your guidance.
