[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aryzvalos:
My Note seems unable (or unwilling) to detect touchscreen contact within a relatively small margin of each edge.

Using the 'Pointer location' option in Developer Options, I can see that no matter where along the edge I put my finger, it seems to clamp it to 20px away from the edge. Taking the left edge, for an example, I can see the line tracking my finger up until I hit the margin, and then it will go no further left. It is still detecting the press, though, moving my finger up and down will result in a perfectly straight line being drawn parallel to the edge of the screen.

I'm using PA3 (RC3). Either the problem doesn't exist or I just didn't notice on stock. I only became aware of it when attempting to mess around with the new 'Pie' thing in PA, and realising that it's somewhat difficult for PA to detect the gesture when the edge of the screen isn't registering the touch!

I'd appreciate it if anyone could quickly check whether their Note has the same issue, or if anyone is aware of a way of expanding the area on which touches will be registered.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminator_5505:
try the touch screen benchmark app found on the play store to know if you have any problem with the touch screen
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aryzvalos:
I wasn't sure to which app you were referring, but I found one that was able to fairly clearly show the issue. I took a screenshot and attached it to this post.

Each of those lines was drawn from or to the edge of the screen. You can see they all stop significantly before the boundary. The app is ScreenTouchTest, if someone would mind repeating the experiment and seeing what results they get!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joey_oggie:
Same thing happens with me. However, when using the S-Pen, the boundary gets to the right, ie the screen area increases. Here are two screen shots, one with finger and the other with S-Pen.

P.S: sorry for the big pictures...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BmXStud:
I did a factory reset on my Virgin mobile Kyoceria Rise which i have done before, but this time something went wrong. The phone just continues to BOOT LOOP after it gets to the "flick to unlock your phone screen"

So it does boot into the OS.. just it reboots soon as the stock flick to unlock screen comes up. The only thing i changed with this factory restore is i froze/deleted some bloatware a couple months ago that i didnt restore before the trying a system restore on monday. Im wondering does this have anything to do with it or did something else get screwed?

I know i froze Virgin mobile setup which might be the issue, but i doubt it.

I already read there is no custom recovery for this phone and no clockwork because Kyocera has the bootloader locked down pretty good, so if something goes bad you have to send it to them or just get a new phone.

Also, i already tried the android restore by holding the volume down+power key and a selecting full data reset/restore but this still results in the same bootloop. Also says, "Cannot find /misc" which is normal i read.

Just wondering if my $50 android gone?

EDIT: i dont see a section for this phone so hopefully this is right.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vval233:
I spent 3 weeks trying to fix my Rise which was also in a boot loop. I've looked everywhere and still havnt found a solution.....until kyocera agrees to unlock the boot loader we got paper weights :( but for me this was a great learning experience! I taught myself how to use adb and SDK. I have a Motorola Xoom and ive rooted it, bricked it, and unbricked it! I recently started looking around again for a solution to my Rise.... I have the stock image but I can't push it to the phone. I put my rise in recovery mode connect it to my PC but adb won't recognize it. So our best bet is hope that the boot loader will someday be unlocked......

Ever since I flashed 4.2.2 my phone only rings once then goes silent. It happens on both 4.2.2 roms I use. Does anyone have any ideas on what this could be or does anyone else have this problem?

does it go into silent mode or vibrate? when the ringer sound goes out is it still receiving a call or is the call also lost?

i sometimes have a no sound problem after a reboot on 4.2.2 but i just reboot it again and the sound is back. im sure you may have aleady tried wiping cache/dalvik and fixing permissions...but if not give it a shot.

I figured out the problem. 4.2.2 doesn't play nice with CUSTOM ringtones. You have to use system ringtones. Maybe the developers will make a fix for this soon.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kl323:
I recently picked up a certified like new S3 from Verizon. What I notice is that the screen greases up like mad EVEN after wiping it down with a microfiber cloth...

It greases up way too easily. My previous phone (GNex) can be wiped down with my sweater with no problem. But this particular phone can only be cleaned with a microfiber cloth... and it really takes some work to get at it.

Has the oleophobic coating worn off? Should I ask them to send a replacement? The grease gets so bad that I initially thought they were scratches (since it wasn't coming off..). Thoughts?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] R00tr3cht:
Hey guys,

my problem is, that the Display of my SE XPERIA RAY sometimes turn black.

It´s not regularly! It happen from time o time. Sometimes, while the phone lies on the table or something and it ever will turn off if i do a call and hold my Phone next to my Ear (it´s something with the proximity-sensor probably i think)

My Display-Timeout is set to 30minutes, but i think that´s not relevant, or i´m wrong ?!

I found out, if i use ADB and send the KEYCODE_ENDCALL with "adb shell input keyevent 6" to the Phone, the Result will be the same!

The Display turns off!

But if you Press the ON/OFF-Button you can unlock the Phone! There´s full functionality of the Screen! You can do every Action you want, but you don´t see it :(( cause of this i use screencast to control the Phone... but, as you certainly know, it´s not pretty cool with 4-5 fps :((

I really hope you can help me! This Ray is actually my only usable Phone :((

I had want to post the "dumpsys power"-informations, but can´t find it yet.

what i have noticed, is, that if the Display works correct the "mUserState" is set to 3 and while Display is not working correctly it is set to 0.

But i don´t know if this is relevant.

thx in advance

Personally I'd suggest you ask the other 4G users how to manage battery life. No point asking 3G users how to save juice on a 4G phone other than the usual things like lower screen brightness, disabling background processes like google maps & google voice etc. Have a look at the various battery threads in the i9300 general section. I'd right a long list, but kinda busy at the mo

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdassad:
Well, I ordered the Nexus 4 last week and have been lurking all over these forums since then. I need some help with picking a case. I have narrowed my choices down to the three very different ones listed below this paragraph. As you can see they all offer different pros and cons (at least to me). I'm trying to decide if function (keeping the phone from shattering) is more important than aesthetics (showing off that beauty and sleekness). Since I just dropped $350 for this device, I have been leaning heavily towards the former. I'm definitely open to other suggestions and I'm willing to spend up to $50. These are just the three that caught my eye.

Poetic Borderline Bumper Yellow- $10

The Good: Minimal bulk, I like the stylish yellow, low price, shows off the back

The Bad: Poor user reviews but Poetic claim it's been resolved, while it does have minimal bulk since it is just a bumper that means less protection, the poor reviews state that it falls apart in days or weeks. I know I should be weary but I love the look of the yellow on black with full view of the back.

Ringke Fusion - $16

The Good: Covers the back but still shows it off, low price, not much bulk, better protection than just a bumper

The Bad: I haven't been able to find many reviews. Reports that the clear back having that "wet" look.

Seidio Active with Kickstand - $35

The Good: the best protection out of these cases listed, has a kick stand (which I miss from my HTC EVO days), comes in many colors, I have one now for my Nexus S 4G and it's protected it well even though I'm not a huge fan of the bulk.

The Bad: Somewhat expensive, really bulky compared to the other two above, sort of ugly, the kickstand is cool but it does add some bulk. Reports of the wireless charging not working with it on (this isn't isn't an issue yet since I don't have a Qi but I plan to someday)

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance to all who have read this.

Ballistic.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdassad:
That's actually the one my wife was planning to get. I like the protection it gives but hate the bulk. I might also consider that one. I assume you have it? How much bigger/bulky does it make it feel?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpjimmy:
From the three and you mentioned you wanted for protection, then Seidio is the way to go. I have always bought Active cases for my tablets and phones except this one. I haven't a need for that yet. I have had it for my past Sensation, Kindle Fire, and now Nexus 7. It's my daily case for my N7, but for the Sensation, it was my travel case.

In the later months, I opted for the "hybrid tpu" case for the Sensation which exposed the back, much like the Fusion. I am getting the Fusion now and getting a holster from Seidio to fit.

Bottom line, for travel and good protection, I'd go Active. Middle of the road would be the Fusion. I preface that by saying I have yet to receive my Fusion yet so take that with a grain of salt for now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
The hybrid case biggest fault are the feel of the buttons. Not wet. I believe the wet look come from those using screen protectors in the back.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] planoman:
For those who have the Seidio active case and want to use their wireless charger? The issue is the metal kickstand which may or may not work with the Orb but I would not use it on my charging mat. I have the surface with metal kickstand. I bought the Acase superleggera pro case for $15 and it is similar to the seidio active and it works fine with my charging mat. I missed the holster so I asked a buddy (who has the active combo) to let me see if the Acase fit in the seidio active holster and guess what? It fits! It's a tiny bit tighter on the sides but still slides in and out pretty easily and the spring loaded clip works fine.

For those in this situation you may just want to spring for the case for 15 if you wirelessly charge.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h0bnail:
Which of these cases do you prefer? I've been considering both. Wireless charging is not an issue for me and will be carrying in my pocket
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] planoman:
Just to be clear I have the surface which is less bulky than the active and the superleggera is closer to the active.

That said I would say the seido has a slight edge in quality however when you factor in the price, the superleggera is a better value!

The surface case is slimmer, still offers good protection and had a good grip. If you do not intend to charge wirelessly it is what I recommend.
