Long press not working anymore on some parts of the screen - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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? :/

Known Issues of The touch pro2 ( Rhodium )

First, Sorry for my broken english
I want all Issues of the touch pro 2 ( rhodium ) posted in this thread.
Here are as far as i know
- Touch flo 3D isnt starting sometimes
- Sometimes, volume buttons dont work ( you will be returned to home screen when you push on it )
Please add more if known, so other people with same problem, can see if its known or not.
these past few days. my phone is acting weird. The screen keep rotating as if i open the keyboard (I enable the sound when opening the keyboard. that's how i notice it)
crashes if closing apps before they have fully loaded
intermittantly rotates the screen and gets stuck on what ever its rotated to
random crashing if you try and use it with some sort of speed it just cant cope and crashes. i now am wishing i never bothered with htc anymore but i know its not them its microsoft.
But pls also mention the software you all installed.
Especially this screen rotating is fascinating.
As bug I may ad the notitifaction queue which gets corrupted with duplicates.
maybe the push internet is doing that. (Separate post)
Can't dial from Bluetooth device (car handsfree) when device is locked
Had a strange one this morning. The phone received an sms, and it made it's bleep and vibration to let me know. But then it wouldn't stop vibrating. It went on for about 30 seconds. So I powered down with long push of power button, and selecting yes. It still vibrated after shutdown. So I went to take back off to try a soft reset, and then it stopped. Powered up, and no weird things like that. So put it down to a glitch...
My main issue is that reading an SMS doesn't always mark it as read. I will have to get the keyboard out and scroll through the messages with the arrow keys to "read" the messages I have in a thread.

Key layout wrong and blackscreen when making a call.

I have ATT Fuze. I downloaded the 20100503 package, extracted it. Put STARTUP.TXT from Fuze folder. Updated zImage and rootfs.img and modules, and it boots fine.
However, when I press 'Home' key, I get a slider sometimes, sometimes it takes me to random weird screens, and sometimes it does nothing. Other keys do not seem to work as expected either, but I haven't documented them.
Another issue is that when I make a call, the screen goes black. The call works, but then I can't seem to get it out of the black screen without removing the battery.
Any help appreciated.

I have a RAPH120, and this is one of the more annoying bugs for me.
One way to try and get the screen back is to open the slide-out keyboard.
i have the same issue i serched and serched and couldnt find anything so i thought it was just me they keybord trick dosnt work for me tho
keyboard trick doesnt work for me either. ive pretty much given up on android for now, its nice but not usable .. (although i admit, a little better than winmo which is not nice and not usable)
personaly i think that the camera dosnt need attention id be fine with out it hopefully they will work on this tho

Misinterpreted touchscreen-input and partially non-reacting touchscreen

Hey guys, I've got two problems with my unrooted stock HOX , which both are touchscreen related
1. When I push a little harder on the upper right corner of the touchscreen while in lockscreen, the diplay recognizes 3 other inputs on the left side of the screen (all of them about 2cm apart from one another, sometimes there are even more inputs randomly placed) which are slightly shaking but always appear in the same places. When this occurs, the display doesn't recognize any other inputs for about 4-5 seconds, then the 3 faulty inputs disappear and touchscreen works again. Okay, this could be of the harder pressure but the thing is, that when I'm doing the same in my homescreen or somewhere else, it doesn't happen. The problem with this occurrence is, that I often can't unlock my phone immediately and it also appears when I get an incoming call, so I am unable to answer it the green circle won't react on my input. But the fact, that it only occurs in lockscreen makes me wonder if it could be a simple software error and not hardware.
2. Sometimes (usually in combination with problem number 1) a part of the diplay doesn't react to any input whatsoever, but the rest of the screen does. I usually recognized that while typing messages and the area affected is an about 1cm high horizontal strip which is located in the height of the letter A in the portrait keyboard and goes all over to the letter L (I hope you understand what I mean ). I made it visible via a painting programm and it's a perfectly straight area. But when I now turn the display off and on, everything is fine again, so this makes me think (and hope) that this is a software error too.
I tried factory resetting but this wouldn't work out, at least the first problem still occurs (did the reset yesterday, so I can't rule out, that the second one still exists). I don't want to send my HOX in again, because this one is apart from that very nice and has no other faults.
So the main question is: soft or hardware and what could I do against this?
Hope you guys can help!

Random block of the icon "App"

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

Unresponsive screen bottom

Thid weird issue started today in the morning, first I noticed that the clock widget had changed size, and that the led me know ring around the cam hole was out of place, but, when trying to write in whatsapp, I no longer could make the keyboard to appear by taping the wrinting field, in fact, nothing located in the bottom worked, what is odd, the bottom gestures worked, as I hid the nav bar since day one, tried everything, changed dpi, changed keyboards, retired the screen protector, wiped cache, to no avail, reluctantly, I updated to android 10, but no luck, after digging more, I found a work around, I changed the resolution from quad hd to full hd, now all is normal, but, this is just a work around, not a real solution, somebody have an idea of what would be the reason for this?
Did you have your phone linked to windows, your computer online and the phone screen displayed at that time? In this case, if you chose to use your computer's hardware keyboard in Your phone settings on your computer, then, when trying to write something in whatsapp, the virtual keyboard on your phone is not displayed or it is partially displayed. In my case, using the AI Type keyboard, only the top row of the keyboard was displayed because the app thought I'm using my computer's keyboard.

Thanks for your reply, but no, in fact I have never used the phone in that way, something else caused the issue

Was your phone charging at the time by any chance?
I found the solution!
I had the exact same problem with my note 10 plus, the gestures worked, and I tested the bottom part of the screen to make sure everything was working and it was, but the buttons in apps like instagram at the very bottom of the screen still were unresponsive most of the time. The solution is to ho to your settings, switch the navigation bar to the other gesture variant and then back to you preffered one and it should work. It worked for me.
Thanks man, I just found what triggers the issue, as odd as it seems, changing resolutions from qhd to fhd id what causes the issue, odd, because I used a bixby routine to save power at nights, by setting medium power saving, which among other things, lowered the screen resolution to fhd, when the routine ended, it should reverse to qhd, and that precisely triggered the issue, I used this routine for months, until, out of the blue, it started to cause this problem
