[G4 General] xdabbeb:
After receiving my G4 last week and digging into it, I found that LG is once again dual-sourcing (JDI and in-house LGD) panels for the G4, and that all most verifiable touchscreen issues I have recorded have been on JDI panel equipped devices (EDIT: Though the vast majority were JDI, there was at least one LGD with the same issue). The problem itself is EMI/noise related and is remedied by a solid path to ground (plugging it in, good contact with your hand, etc).

I have verified this with a few dozen phones so far, but more data would be helpful. If you're going to, however, please don't post if you just feel that your touchscreen isn't as responsive as you'd like (missed taps, etc). There's too much room for error there. To verify that your device has the issue, it is best to count the number of discreet touch events it can register both while unplugged and plugged-in/grounded. If your device has the issue, you will only get 5-6 before failure while unplugged and 10 while plugged-in. You can use the free app Display Tester from the play store to check.

As for determining which panel you have, the easiest way is to check your kernel message buffer immediately after boot using dmesg. If you're rooted you can do this on the device, if you aren't rooted you can use adb.

dmesg | grep -i panel

The oem will be in your kernel command line, panel name, etc.

NOTE: Though it appears that there is a hardware element to this issue, I do think it's possible that LG could fix it in the touch driver with a software update. I personally haven't updated to the firmware that was reported to fix this on my variant (vs98612a) as it was pulled, so I can't say firsthand.
[G4 General] GalaxyFan88:
LG panel here. Just tested with display tester. While holding the phone in my hand it recognizes multiple fingers easily.

However if I lay down the G4 on whatever ground/table (it doesn't matter) it barely recognizes two fingers, the second one has to be pushed harder to get it recognized by the screen. Three fingers and it's game over. Really strange. So now I know why it was always difficult using the phone i.e. at work when I wanted to "passively" check whats going on. Most of my touches and swipes (even with one finger) were more prone to erratic behaviour while the pone was laying on my desk.

I am using LG's 6.0 MM by the way with S3V3n's rooted kernel and unlocked bootloader btw. Also there is a tempered glass protector on my screen.

Check the terminal log below for reference regarding my screen type (LGD).

[G4 General] One Twelve:
It took just one reply to disprove that :)

which will apply regardless of where the panel was sourced. A phone with a curve isn't really ideally suited to be operated on a flat surface anyway.

I've noted this tendency to point out where a component comes from here on the boards and this then gets extrapolated into something bad. i would not interpret a non-oem panel as a problem whatsoever.

components are sourced when required from suppliers that can build to scale. They are equivalent for all intents and purposes.

it should not make a bit of difference whether the panel is LG or JDI. If it does then it just means you 'may' have a defective panel. This can happen with either source.
[G4 General] konradsa:
I think you may be on to something. I got the JDI panel, and I noticed that if I use a touch tester app, it can only register 5 touches successfully when unplugged. The 6th touch causes it to lose all touch points. However, when it's plugged into power, it can register 10 touches without a problem.

Not that I need more than 5 touch points, but is this normal behavior for a digitizer to do that? Looks to me like this is something that could be tweaked in the driver. Would be interesting to know by someone with Verizon software 12A (I am on 11A) if they notice the same issue that their device only registers 5 touches max, or if that is something that has been addressed. I am really getting ticked off by Verizon peddling around and not being able to provide the update every other G4 user already has received. At this point, I am hoping xdabbeb's efforts of coming up with a fix for the 11A version bear some fruits.
[G4 General] xdabbeb:
Actually, no...given the individual's report of not even being able to register 2 touches that sounds more like a hardware failure than what is being investigated here.

I don't believe I mentioned laying it flat on a table as part of this test, but, yes, a curved phone isn't suited to that.

I was actually quite careful in making no judgment in this regard. The words 'bad' and 'defective' were only used by you, actually. I personally don't care what panel was/is used and even stated that given the nature of the problem I feel a software fix is certainly possible.

Though there will be a tendency with any device that has a large scale issue such as this to (sometimes blindly) grasp at finding the cause, the purpose of this was to gather more information, not incite a witch hunt. I personally gathered over 3 dozen logs/reports that supported this before posting, and felt that this was the best way to get more.. I have no horse in this otherwise. I have noted tendencies of contrarianism and gross generalization, but it's the Internet...You're going to get that :)

[MENTION=5138965]konradsa[/MENTION] the qfuse situation makes investigating that more problematic, but that's precisely what I'm looking into next.
[G4 General] konradsa:
Thanks, appreciate your efforts and looking forward to your results.
[G4 General] random_word:

[G4 General] xdabbeb:
If it was exactly the same then that settles it. Thanks for the report. Closing the thread.

hey everyone...this is my first post on xda, i need a little help with my sisters in laws phone. basically shes got some crazy ex who has rooted her phone and im trying to fix it for her since hes making her life difficult. i can tell he has a custom bootloader installed. when i boot into recovery its odin not the normal bootloader. i can still boot into download mode but the phone wont boot up...when it does it just says that the firmware update encountered a problem and to use kies in recovery. im not super technically saavy but have flashed a tablet or too. nothing major. any help would be greatly appreciated. i just want this thing back to stock bootloader and firmware like when it came from att. does that sound like its possible. i tried to use some write ups i found online to rewrite the stock firmware and thats when it quit booting up. thanks in advance for any help people!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
Thanks for taking the time to help with this issue. that file didnt work, i flashed the G900A_OC4_Stock_Partitions firmware and its at least working again. thanks again to everyone who looked and especially dirtydodge for taking time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
Phone is working again guys but was wondering if anyone knows why it keeps giving me this security notice pop up...says that unauthorized actions have been detected and gives me the option to restart or cancel. Sounds like it has something to do with KNOX from my searching. Trying to solve this without rooting. When i check the KNOX counter in D/L mode it says 0x0. Ive updated firmware and security updates to latest versions and it hasnt helped. Anyone have any pointers? As always any help is greatly appreciated. Searched around the web and xda and didnt find what i was looking for.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] FilthyFord:
[MENTION=7089928]wigglesrewind[/MENTION]. Chances are is that the phone is still rooted and that's why your getting the notification. Go to the pay store and download "root checker" and see what it says. Also what is your version & baseband. I'm not sure why the "downgrade to nce" file didn't work for you. It might have been a bad download but you should be able to use it if your still on 0C4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
Thanks again dirtydodge for contributing. I did a check with root checker and it says root is not installed. Also used terminal emulator and get a dollar sign in the terminal, not the hash tag. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] FilthyFord:
I'm not familiar with terminal emulator. The only time I've ever gotten the notification that you talking about is when i have root apps on the phone and certain things aren't froze. But you need to be rooted and have titanium backup to freeze them. What version is on the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
Sorry, forgot to add that in the last post...

Baseband version oc4

Kernel 3.4.0

Build number LRX21T.G900AUCU4BOF3

Let me know if you need any other info. Like i said im not very experienced in this

But thanks again for your help. Its greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] FilthyFord:
Ok well it sounds like your on the latest firmware version. The phone may still have a trace of root somewhere. After you flashed the oc4 Kernel did you do a factory reset. Other than that I'm not sure what to do. But that does explain why you can't use the "downgrade to nce" file. The oc4 build can not be downgraded. I'd do a factory reset from the stock recovery menu and then wipe the cache. If that don't fix it then I'm out of options. Lol. Hope this helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
Ive tried everything you mentioned except wiping the cache so I'll give that a try. Cross your fingers for me!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] elliwigy:
you flashed oc4 firmware which is why your baseband is oc4 (baseband is modem.)

What you need to do is download and odin a full odin tar file.. this will wipe everything clean and make it brand new...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
If i were to find a full tar file would i just use the ap box in odin or would i have to do it differently? Usually those full dowloads have multiple files in them (BL and whatever the other ones are... CS maybe? Cant remember and not near the computer right now. Is that what your talking about?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] elliwigy:
Yup.. youre build is of3 or w.e which to my knowledge not downgradeable.. if you dont plan on keeping it rooted then you can flash latest full tar in odin using the AP slot..

I would recommend trying the oc full tar first if you plan on rerooting it.. the full tar will have multiple files including system, csc, boot etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
Thanks alot! I'll find a full tar on here and odin it and see if that fixes it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
does anyone have that oc4 one click file or know where i can find it. see it in my searchs but its always the same google drive share and they all say the file doesn't exist.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] elliwigy:
what do you mean one click?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] wigglesrewind:
G900AUCU3BOC4_OneClick..exe was the file name i kept coming across with links to a google drive account but the file is no longer on there. I'll keep looking. I appreciate you guys lending a hand. I know it can be frustrating trying to help someone with limited understanding of something remotely. You guys are great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] elliwigy:
i understand.. just dont know if thatll work for you lol.. you need a full odin tar.. the one click might just be for root.. try to find a full oc4 tar file

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Martillero:
ok, some progress....

I 've removed the smart select button from smali code, so now i can choose another app, the "issue" is this: i didnt find yet a way to add another icon from the "add icon" option (only 3 choosable icons in editor screen, not 4) so the only way to use all 4 icons is with sqlite editor adding the fourth manually.

Also have edit the settings button at the botton to enter into the edit apps screen, so no need to use sqlite to remove the apps when we use all buttons.

Will try to "add" the fourth icon option, but i dont make any promises :confused:

To make the bottom settings button fully work, we need a note secseetings, or copy the smalis needed into our s6 secsettings adding the air command fragment and matching the id' s (that is to much work for a super lazy guy like me sorry :p)

This is the same zip by Ale, with AirComandService edited.

DOWNLOAD

The result is:

-Smart select shortcut deleted.

-Edit button will go to app shortcut picker (so if your shorctuts are full, theres no need to use sqlite editor).

Unfortunatly, i couldn't find a way to edit the app picker drawer to "add" another shortcut picker...

So, the only way to use the fourth shorcut is by sqlite editor. You can use the guide linked in op:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63093119&postcount=319

But instead of removing all those lines in value, just add a new line at the end with your shorcut app.

For ex copy/paste this line at the end:

,0;com.whatsapp;com.whatsapp.Main;A;null

And save, that string will add whatsapp shortcut. This is just an example.

If you want to remove some of the shortcuts apps just use the settings button at left bottom and remove it from there.
