Hi.
Quick background incase it's relevant...
I was running Malaysk 5.1.1 on my rk3188 800x400 and paired it with my Sony Xperia Z for Bluetooth audio and calls; all worked prefectly.
Then I updated my handset to an Xperia XZ premium and Bluetooth calls stopped working. I tried every fix, msu and rom I could find but nothing ever worked. I left the hu with a stock rom until I could find a solution.
My handset software then updated to 8 and hey presto, calls are working again.
So, I re-installed Malaysk's 5.1.1 rom.....and now the story continues...
I found that in the 'car mod' launcher as well as the xposed installer app that I couldn't press the menu buttons on screen. Everything else worked and those parts of the screen worked when other buttons were under them.
Thinking it was an installation glitch I reinstalled the rom but the problem remained. In short I tried four other roms but found the same problem. Then I tried changing the lcd density to make the gui bigger and found the buttons worked, but only if the screen is ridiculously big! (240 or over). I also found that if I used my thumb (which is large!) to press the menu buttons it works at smaller screen sizes but often presses others screen elements nearby.
So, the touchscreen works, the menu buttons work but only if they're huge or I mash that whole area of the screen!
What the what is going on?!
Thanks.

This may be a known issue, but I've found nothing through searching the forum or Google.
Running GedeROM, and everything works perfectly. Netflix plays well, but won't go full screen. When it first starts, the soft buttons are visible, as always. A few seconds in, the buttons hide, but netflix does not resize to fill the screen, so I have a half inch border around whatever is playing.
This is not a big deal but, with a seven inch screen, I'd like to be able to use as much of the screen as possible.
Is anyone else having this problem, and is there a known fix or different ROM recommendation?
Thanks in advance!
If your having the problem of netflix only being in portrait mode try toggling the screen rotation back and forth this should allow it to rotate to landscape mode sometimes it gets a little sticky also make sure you have 180 degree rotation enabled.
Thanks, but that's not the problem. Switching from protrait to landscape IS sticky, but does work
Netflix firsts starts filling MOST of the screen, except for the bottom half inch with the Back, Home and Multitask switcher buttons visible. After 3 seconds, these buttons shrink off the screen but the picture doesn't expand to fill the space vacated by the disappearance of the soft buttons.
Works fine on the phone and other devices...
Oh, I should mention that my other devices are running variants of Gingerbread, and in one case Froyo. This may be a function of ICS.
Being that gedeRom has true fullscreen maybe there is a feature that you don't have enabled auto hide or something of that nature maybe someone would know better than I cause I don't run gede have but not presently
Have you tried holding the power button a few seconds and then choosing to hide the status bar?
Do you have auto hide enabled under system in the settings menu?

Thanks, Desanko. Turns out I'm an idiot. Problem solved!
Hello all,
I have recently loaded a new rom to my SGH-T889 (Team UB 5.0.2 Lollipop), coming from Liquidsmooth 3.2 4.4.4 Kitkat. The previous rom I've used has the option to disable the backlight of the capacitive buttons (not sure if that's what it is called, but it's the buttons next to the home button). In the new rom, there is no option to disable the capacitive buttons' backlight, so I am trying to see what app, if there are any, compatible with my phone, that allows me to disable the backlight of the capacitive buttons.
By the way, I have two other small problems I would like to know the solutions to:
- Camera always displays a "cannot connect to camera" message. It happens once in a while (randomly) if I access it by pressing the camera icon, but if I try to use the camera shortcut on the lockscreen (it is always guaranteed to not work). These scenarios occur on all roms except the stock rom and a restart fixes the problem.
- One more annoying thing is that GPS seems to never find any satellites on any rom except the stock rom. I've tried so many apps in the Play Store and tried the Kat App, but they don't work.
I've searched all around XDA for solutions, but the solutions either are not compatible with my phone or they don't work at all. Any tips and guides are welcome.
Thank you.
for now few days, the capacitive buttons (back, home, recent apps) in my htc one x stopped working whereas rest of the screen is working fine. I was on custom rom android revolution hd at that time. while i was looking for a solution, i came across a custom rom namely resurrection remix and i installed that rom. it gave me an option of navigation bar. It enabled that bar just above the capacity buttons which started working fine and i was just happy that it gave a solution to the problem. But suddenly after 10 days or so, the navigation bar stopped working also like capacitive buttons. no response at all. i did everything, cleared cache, wipe data factory reset and then changed rom to another rom called beanstalk which also had option of navigation bar but the navigation bar of beanstalk also did not work. but when I rotate the screen to landscape of my phone, the navigation bar also rotates and starts working fine. In other words, in custom rom like resurrection remix, beanstalk rom, it does not work in portrait mode but on rotating the screen the bar rotates also and works fine. Where could be the problem? How can navigation bar stop working in portrait mode only. please help.
It must be a hardware problem with your digitizer which is controlled in zones. Replace the digitizer.
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? :/
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
