I ran the script and all is ok now as far as the back&menu keys are concerned.

though I'm having a bit of another problem.

the accelerometer/compass is not working. it happens when I upgrade from .377 to .42 (which was necessary for the script to run)

I'm going in the service menu and the accelerometer is showing no values or the values are stuck.

maybe one of you kind gentlemen who had been poking in the config files came across anything related to the accelerometer or compass sensor and would like to point it to me. I would really appreciate it.

I thought that it was only my phone to do that

I have it in my hand for just 3 days and it is allready rooted, unlocked bootloader, rage 2.7 kernel and HYBROM V16, o/c @1600

I had Krsh kernel but i changed to rage to do some test properly for this problem

I dont know yet, i have to ''warm'' it a bit to see

The question is: Can i run this script with rage kernel or i have to flash krsh?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] aftergr:
Never mind, it didnt work on rage so i installed krsh again and after 2 attempts it seems it worked

After some minutes of gaming everything went fine, hope it fixed

Yes, it works !

No more problem with back button whenever it gets hot :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ST15:
I think it's worked!

Last question, if I update my firmware will the fix stay in place? I dropped from .62 to .42.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Checked the code. No, it needs to be reinstalled, because it is located in system folder, where all files will be replaced with any ROM installation.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chofillo:
All done!

I want to thank all people that make revive mi Mini. I run two days ago the script and i'm very happy now. My mini have just the buttons issue. The process i did:

1. Downgrade my phone frome .62 to .42 with wotanserver.

2. Root my phone with doomlord process.

3. Install Gscript lite.

4. Run the script for st15a.

5. My phone don't reboot, I did it manualy.

6. After reboot all ok.

7. I upgrade my phone to .62 again with pccompanion and works perfectly.

Thank you very much!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Just one thing, your root is now gone after update, because if you do it via PC Companion, you lose root.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chofillo:

---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------

You are right i lose root.

But i remember that the phone give me a message for upgrade, when i try to do it, give another message that i can't updgrade from phone, only from pc companion :(

unsensitive touchscreen

Hey guys. I have two Xperia Minis, and I tried in both of them the overheating solution. In mine it worked like a charm, but in the other one it completely de-sensitized (read it won't get my touch input) the screen and the capacitive buttons. How can I undo or recover the sensitivity in my phone's screen?

Hello,

I have just received my MINI (from my brother).

I have this problem(automatic back & menu button activation) it driving me crazy...:mad:

I just want to know the moral of story behind this thread....how do I solve it??

I have unrooted device and don't want to root!:o:(

My phone shows xxxxx.42!!

Should I update it to xxxxxx.62???

Thanx in advance!!:):)

hy guys, first of all thanks for the work! but now i´ve got a (maybe) stupid question.

i own an xperia mini running CM7.2 and somehow the script always throws an exception, telling me it couldn´t find cyttsp_fwloader.....

anyone an idea?? this bug is getting on my nerves and i was pretty happy to see someone solved it...

Helps much appreciated and thak you in advance!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] the-osiris:
Reflash to original rom will undo all

Upgrade is not solution, you'll have to run this script from root.

Custom rom may not have required module.

Recalibration

Try re-calibrating it helps, i dunno how but it works ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Sandipkim:
Thank you for your reply.....

I rooted my phone....and fixed this with script!!!

Now one more quotation now can I update my phone to xxxxx.62!!!

Will root & fix remain????
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] T3sla:
Update over the air and you will keep root access.Test your phone and if problem reappears apply the script again;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hariskar:
Some posts before someone said that the script is in system folder, so if someone updates the script is gone...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Siberian Tiger:
Hi everyone.

I'm also having this problem running .42 FW stock rooted.

I tried the script but no luck,maybe i'm doing something wrong with gscript.

Can someone post a tutorial?

My steps :

Open gscript

Add script

Name:blank

Script:writing the script

Save and exit

Long press the script and run

The phone doesn't reboot itself is just power off.

Reboot manually but nothing happened after playing a bit the annoying back and menu buttons are back again :(

Thanks in advance :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] the-osiris:
It doesn't matter if the script is gone (the script is not on system, the module is) , it's just recalibrate your touchscreen.

Using official update will retain required modules for script to run, if you have to fix it once again.

You should copy/paste the script instead typing it. Save it to your sdcard, then load it to gscript.

Same Method I Tried

Hi,

My Xperia mini had the button issue, and now it is fixed.

I rooted phone, and installed gscript.

In one site, they mentioned you should copy the touchpanel.sh file and paste it in the gscript folder, which could be found in the memory card.

Initially, I could not find the folder, so tried writing down the script ("very difficuly with the button problem")..and it did not work, just shutdown.

Then i found the folder and pasted the file and ran it, and it shutdown and on powerup, the issue is solved.

I also updated it to .62 version via PC Companion, and it is working fine.

I have zipped and attached the file. Hope it solves the issue for you too.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] alanocore66:
Updated to .62

Hi,

I updated my firmware from .42 to .62 (using PC Companion) after fixing my mini with the script.

Now, my mini is working fine .. no issues at all.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] alanocore66:
It Worked!!

First I installed Android SDK Tool and then installed ADB Drivers using the SDK Manager (just select Google USB Driver Package)

http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

http://www.androidtipsnapps.com/android-tips/176-how-to-install-android-adb-driver.html (this seems to be a guide for the older version SDK, hence you will notice few changes).

(Not sure if this method is necessary as I also noticed an alternate .. install the drivers directly ..(could not try this) :

http://www.mediafire.com/?6u1zl54w3jnvvax

I downgraded my phone from .62 to .42 with flashtool (wotanserver is now a paid service)...

FlashTool Setup:

http://uploaded.to/file/g3uingdb

.42 STOCK ROM:

http://www.mediafire.com/?uboo3lrdxnoeldn

Installd FlashTool and copied the rom file to the install directory and pasted it in

C:\Flashtool\firmwares folder.

Opend Flash Tool and clicked the flash button (lightning symbol)

Choose "flashmode".

In the next prompt I choose the ROM file and clicked OK.

Another prompt came telling me to connect the device.

With my phone turned Off, I connected the USB to the computer and while pressing and holding the volume down button, connected the USB cable to the phone. The tool detected the phone and started flashing.

Flashing Completed and I disconnected and turned ON my phone.

Then I enabled UsbDebugging and Unknown sources from the phone settings.

"USB DEBUGGING" from Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development

"UNKNOWN SOURCES" from Menu -> Settings -> Applications

Then I downloaded the rooting kit

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=784296&stc=1&d=1321435888

and extracted it to a folder (any folder).

I connected the phone and ran the "RUNME.bat" file that was extracted from the download.

Once the phone rebooted, I installed GScript Lite App in the phone (from Google Play store).

Then I ran the Application, and when it asked for su permission, i granted it.

Then I closed the application. Unplugged, restarted the phone and replugged (Not necessary .. did this because the gscript folder did not appear)..

I downloaded the TouchPanel.sh file (Please find attached the zipped file) and pasted it into the gscript folder in the phone SD Card. Then I opened GScript again and clicked on the add button and selected this script.

The script ran showing some stderr messages and my phone shutdown.

I started it again and now the issue with the buttons was gone. What a relief.

(i did first try to type in the script .. and when i ran it via gscript,the phone shutdown, but the issue did not get solved (tried it twice) .. so i used the touchpanel.sh file directly and ...well got lucky the third time)

I also updated the firmware to .62 version via SEUS and still the phone is working properly.

Thanks to all for your help.....

I refer the following links to get this done:

Which is the latest firmware version...

Wotan says...

Available firmwares:

4.0.1.A.0.283

4.0.2.A.0.42

4.0.2.A.0.62

4.0.2.A.0.69

4.0.A.2.368

4.0.A.2.377

According to this is 69 the latest one....?[C
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] the-osiris:
Nope, .69 only minor changes to .62

And still has the same problem.

You have to calibrate it once problem occurs (I have my mini for a week, then suddenly had this problem, now it's gone after re-calibrating).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] keywo:
Seconded. Please share your stock ROM's cyttsp_fwloader for those on custom ROMs.

I am on CM7.2 and I have had the phone for 5 days. The problem emerged today during normal browsing. Does the cyttsp_fwloader fix work with CM, does anyone know?

EDIT: Got the cyttsp_fwloader from the .69 ROM and upon running the script through GScript lite, I was given a "cyttsp_fwloader: permission denied" error. Yes, I do have root and have given it to GScript Lite.

EDIT EDIT: Fixed the permission error. I installed Root Explorer and set the permissions to allow all users to execute cyttsp_fwloader. The script has been run, twice actually, just to make sure it did actually run :P

I'm going to test to see if the problem comes back, but I'm pretty sure this trick works for official CM7.2 RC1 with the .69 cyttsp_fwloader. I will include that cyttsp_fwloader for future users. Just remove the .txt from the filename and then push it to /system/bin via adb. Good luck!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] the-osiris:
Have you already set permission to cyttsp_fwloader correctly after copying and before running gscript?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] keywo:
Yes, realised that was the problem and fixed my mistake. Thanks anyway.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] keywo:
Tested for a few hours with games, charging and long wifi transfers. Problem solved on CM7.2 RC1 with the .69 cyttsp_fwloader. Good luck.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Nichito:
WORKED LIKE A CHARM!! Omg, I'm so relieved... Thought I had lost it forever.

I'll make sure to save that ROM somewhere safe.

Btw, It could not have been a hardware problem, since it did have touch recognition before the re-calibration, though it started misbehaving at room temperature. There should be something in the hex file that commands the touch sensitiveness used by the screen.

Thank you!!

Now I can flash roms without fear

Hi Guys!

I've been following this thread for quite some time since I experienced the crazy back/menu key behavior but had it repaired by the service center some months back since my st15i was still under warranty. After that I decided to unlock the bootloader so I could flash the wonderful roms that we have available on XDA. To cut a long story short, somewhere along the line, probably because of all the rom flashing that I do, the problem came back!:( I can't claim warranty anymore because of the unlocked bl so I tried Kusa123's script and it's back to normal once again! I've tried almost every rom here and will continue to do so. Thanks Kusa123, your script is a godsend and it's staying on my sd card!:)

open gscript lite--add script-- load file-select your script, and save. Then just run your script.
