[Q] First menu item on touchscreen not working - Atrix 4G General

I currently have an unlocked MB860 running 4.5.91. I tried taking the OTA update to 4.5.141 and it did not complete. I removed the battery and rebooted, it got into a boot loop. I was able to clear the bootloop by wiping the cache partition. All this is well documented here in the forum and was a great help.
The problem afterward that I have lingering is that any first menu item on the touchscreen in portrait only mode is not select-able. If i orient to landscape mode, it is.
I have searched without much luck to resolve this and before I try to reset to factory defaults I wanted to reach out and see if anyone here is aware of a resolution.
Thanks in advance...

I have to ask have you tried rebooting the phone again with a battery pull. That fixed my problem when I had something like that with mine

Which lag fix did you apply?
I had the same problem today when I tried to used lag fix but it was stuck at vibrant screen and keep rebooting. I tried to went into recovery mode and deleting user interface still didn't help. Finally I had to flash stock vibrant to get it working again.

solution is to get back to stock rom.. look in the development section on how to fix it.. this happen to me after installing lagfix.. i can not install any app as it is saying i do not have any space available...
Thanks for the help guys, restoring a nandroid back up seemed to do the trick.
I know you fixed it already but this might help others ....
1.) Which lag fix was it?
2.) If it was Voodoo it can take a long time to remove and it will sit at the boot logo.
3.) If you get impatient and reboot before the removal is complete, you may not have all your data copied over.
I have the same problem! The lag fix i have is the one from this video: youtube.com/watch?v=KY1YXrltIRE (cannot post link), how do i get back to stock rom? thanks in advance from a noob

bad sectors, possible detection?

Suddenly, my 6800 start to be very slow, so i have restarted the tablet, and since then it never boots, tried to do factory reset from recovery but it reboots while wiping data, wiping cache alone works but has no effect , the tablet still stuck on Galaxy Tab 7.7 sign.
i have re-flashed the firmware many times with no luck, is it possible to have bad sectors that prevent booting? how i could check if any exists?
is there any wiping Firmware?
Thanks

Although this is not the right section to post , as this should be posted in "General".
But as this just happened to me few days ago, the only straight way to overcome this is to leave the tab till the battery drains completely.
This is probably happening due to corrupted data with your internal memory .
e2fsck is what you want to run while In an ADB shell to your device. I have had corrupted storage twice and running the command on the various partitions fixed it for me both times. I don't remember the partitions off head, but it's easily found in the forums here.. Hope this helps..

Option to above (maybe) is to flash stock and then reset on completion, wipe in STOCK recovery, then do what you want -- works for me and I have very similar issues...

[Q] N10 won't boot after changing font and Factory Reset doesn't work. Please HELP!

Firstly I am new to this and want to apologize for my english since it is not my first language, so please go easy on me
I recently did my first ever rooting on my new N10 16GB using CF-Auto-Root and did not flash custom recovery. It all went fine and worked great until last night when I tried changing fonts using Font Installer. After installing a font and rebooting, the device wouldn't boot past the X-Logo.
Restarting didn't work and after reading other threads I entered Recovery and did the Data Wipe/Factory Reset, but still get stuck at the X.
I tried the Clear Cache option and have done Data Wipe/Factory Reset several times, with and without USB plugged into computer, without any results.
Also, I don't think I enabled USB Debugging after rooting, if this makes any difference right now.
I really don't know where to go from here and as this is as far as my experience goes in these things and not wanting to mess up the device completely, I now turn to you for advice, hoping my dear tablet is not beyond rescue already.
Please please help me out!
SOLVED! I used this guide doing a stock recovery and it's working again!
Keeping this post if it may help someone else =)

Massive softbrick (haven't found a solution yet)

Hello everyone,
So here's my story: I got a 6P short after release and it's been amazing. After switching from a S6 I couldn't be happier until 3 days ago.
I was playing around with my phone (checking for updates on the play store if I recall correctly) and I was going to switch from 4g to wifi. I went ahead and pulled down my notification shade and went to press WiFi but misclicked and hit Hotspot which was below it. My phone suddenly froze big time and this is for the first time ever since purchase.
At first I thought I'd wait it out since the device was completely unresponsive, home button didn't work and neither did anything on screen. Buttons didn't make a difference either. 10 minutes went by and I ended up force restarting by holding down power + volume up. First part of my bootup went fine but when it got to the android boot animation after I put in my pin to allow the device to start it dropped from the smooth usual framerate down to 1 frame every 10-15 seconds and it slowed down further until it came to a complete halt around the time the android letters appear.
My first thought was corrupt rom so I went ahead and wiped data from the stock recovery. I was running completely stock with no modifications whatsoever. That didn't do anything. Phone still froze in the same boot phase. Desperate I unlocked bootloader to flash a clean fresh image to try to fix it and to my surprise that didn't change a thing.
As I was getting pretty desperate already I had one more idea and that was to flash up to the Dev preview. To my huge surprise it booted and I jumped from excitement. So I started setting up my phone again. I got past the prompt to insert sim card and I was now at the screen to choose a wifi network. As soon as I clicked into that the phone froze up again and at that point I lost all hope.
I wiped data in stock recovery and shut the phone down for the night. On day 3, today I woke up and tried starting the phone and it worked as if nothing had happened. I went through the setup and set up my phone on the N preview. At a certain point I was planning to go back to the latest official build but for now I was happy my phone was back from the dead. Later today I tried to restart my phone to clear all running apps etc and it froze up on boot.
I'm losing all hope that I'll be resolving this myself so I'm reaching out to the community to see if anyone's had this happen to them before and hopefuly for a solution. It's still under warranty so I can eventually send it back to the retailer but I'd rather not have a phone for 3 weeks.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thank you for reading through my long and probably pretty boring story!
Have you tried flashing the factory image? If yes, did you made sure to wipe/erase the system, boot, vendor, and cache partition before flash the corresponding img files?
To the OP, is there any reason you did not flash to release version 6 instead of Dev preview ?
Also, any reason you can not simply do the "unenroll" from https://www.google.com/android/beta ?
It will require you to setup certain settings again as you will be back to a "factory reset".

DJBhardwaj, i haven't specifically erased those partitions. I was under the impression wipe userdata along with reflashing did that. I will try that tonight when I get home!
Xdafly, I only updated up to N as a last resort because at first I had a locked BL. I was planning to unenrol but that would've been too late as it self bricked after a restart.

Well I just did the erase thingy and my phone booted but wifi won't turn on. Enabling hotspot doesn't brick anymore but I now suspect WiFi might've been the issue. Any tips on how to find out what it could be and possibly fix it?
Edit: 2 restarts and a factory reset later I'm back to bricked same way as before.
try safe mode

That was my first thought, that was the restart that bricked it again. Safe mode shouldn't have made a difference since I hadn't even logged into Google account for apps.
After reading the very first post; sounds like bad WiFi hardware.
All the hanging has been related to WiFi or Hotspot.
I think you should get a replacement

Is your phone rooted and did you install Xposed?
Over the weekend I shutdown my 6p (stock rooted with April security patch, Xposed v80) and charged it. When it turned it back up I kept getting "Unfortunately, nfc service has stopped". Long story short: I ended up factory reset my phone and reinstalled EVERYTHING and I still got into bootloop. Then I came across
https://github.com/rovo89/Xposed/issues/113
https://github.com/rovo89/android_art/issues/28
At the end of the second post rovo89 (developer of Xposed) fixed the bug in V83. I wiped my 6p once more and installed everything with v83. Problem solved.
Good luck!

Were you ever able to figure out a solution to this? I find myself in a similar situation and their tech support is next to useless. They just tell you to wait so they can send the issue over to their engineers and never end up getting back to you.
