Sometimes gestures on any keyboard i try randomly stop working (such as swyping or long press a letter for symbols). I found that if i press 2 keys simultaneously, it would fix the problem temporarily, until it stops working again. Also if i press 2 keys simultaneously when gestures are working, they will stop working. Whats up with that?! Another problem is when the gestures stop working, sometimes random keys such as the letter 'e' will not work. This is getting really frustrating and annoying. I am running a custom rom, dark unicorn v2.5 but this issue has happened with all the other roms ive tried, including the stock from htc.
Anyone know how to fix this or are experiencing the same? This is my second device (the first had some issues and i had to get it replaced) and this problem appeared on both devices I've had.

This is a known issueon these forums, has to do with the the trackpad reacting to ambient light and thus make random jumps while typing.

Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this issue. While typing sometimes my phone will randomly not be responsive on certain keys. Just those keys though for example I could be typing and then when I press "y" it won't register however all they keys surrounding it do "U" "T" "H". I can flip the orientation and get it but it can get quite aggravating. Any ideas?
Nope none at all I've seen this discussed before I have the same issue at times but only every now and then and yes it is aggrivating sorry I don't have the answer I would like.to.knoe the deal as well.....I.wonder do ppl that have stock phones ever have that issue....

Has anyone else seen this...my bottom "back" button (menu-home-back-search) seems to be much less responsive than it used to be...all the others seem ok... Is there a way to calibrate their sensitivity?

I don't think there is a way to calibrate those. But some thing you might want to add to the OP is what rom you are on maybe there is a setting that I don't know about.
I'm on mostly stock now... Tried out Thunderhawk's latest and saw no difference.... (with that at least)...

might be a hardware problem then. if you went back to stock and same thing is happening.
Yeah...my that's my guess too...likely that my phone just has a little hardware issue...it still works, but I frequently have to hit the back button 2 or 3 times to get it to register...sigh.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
its a hardware issue. My search button isn't as sensitive as the others. Good thing I don't use that often.

I have three users configured and at times the tablet seems to lock up. But I can still pull down the notification drawer and setting drawer. I can touch the back, home, or multitask softkeys, or slide up for Google now.
But no matter where I navigate to, the N7 does not register touches in the "screen" area.
I have found that pulling down the setting drawer and tapping the user to "logout" and then logging back in immediately fixes the issue. Also toggling sleep/wake button and logging back in also fixes it.
Is this a known issue? Is this multiuser, software or hardware specific? Any solutions?
(I read back through a couple weeks of posts but didn't see this issue)
--- UPDATE------
Just happened again. But I left it alone for a minute, picked it back up and it was working fine. Perhaps this is app lag. The notification and navi bar work because they're systems but the screen stops taking input while it lags....(just a thought, I don't know how that stuff might work)
BTW I have a 32 GB N7, it is not rooted, and is fully up to date running 4.2.1

Im having the same issue with mine..just got it afew days ago and it just started about an hour ago. I think its a screen issue cause now it keeps coming up with the menu to change wallpapers without me touching it. And its been locking up alot. Might have to RMA it.

RMA it? Is yours rooted? Do you have multiple users?

Do you have an otg cable? Try connecting a mouse to it when it does this and see if it recognizes mouse actions.

This is not a question it is an issue with the device. This is appropriate for general.

Damn. Well maybe get a log cat next time it happens. Maybe there will be something there to show why it stopped working.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
I'll have to learn how to get a logcat. But I was able to recreate the issue and get a video. I could only get it to affect settings and the play store but I've had this in the launcher before too. I don't think you can hear but tapping the screen was causing the touch sound.

No one has had this issue? I've only experienced it in Settings and PlayStore on me first and second user, nothing on my third user. Also noticed a litte lag on the homescreen too.
In the video you may be able to hear the touch feedback sound. The screen is recognizing taps but not doing anything. Sleep/Wake fixes the issue until you leave the app...
Guess I'll need to exchange my N7 and hope to get one without this issue.
Why did this get moved to Q&A??
Are Issues not discussed in General?
[SOLVED]
I was using APP LOCK on User #3 and that caused what seems like an overlay that prevented touch on users 1&2.
I sent this issue to the apps support. And will try to find a free app locker that is milti-user friendly.

This has been happening since I remember getting the device. About 3/5 times when I bring my device out of standby and I go to enter my pattern the touch is off. I have "show touches" enabled in developer options to verify this.
When I put my finger on the top left dot of the 3X3 pattern, which is around the middle-left of the screen, it is detecting that I'm touching the device all the way in the top left corner. If I drag my finger around the screen, the touch is offset. If I remove my finger from the screen and place it back on the screen, then it is properly detected.
I didn't run on stock for very long, maybe an hour or two, before I rooted and flashed AOKP. Right now I'm on WhiteHawkx's unnoficial AOKP nightly and Franco's Kernel (r122).
My plan is to flash back to stock and see if it still happens then. But currently I have a really busy week ahead and don't have time so looking for insight.
Anyone else experience something like this?
No one? So I guess I should call Google for a warranty exchange?

Try recalibrating the touch screen, I think there's an option in settings.

I posted in that thread a while ago about this issue and no one confirmed. Thanks for your reply. I'm going to go back to stock this weekend and run it for a couple days to verify.

Let me know your results. If it persists, I might have to send mine back.
I'm on stock ROM. I have this issue too, when I power on and drag to unlock, I get a delayed mismatched response. I have to power off then back on again.
It started this recently, so might be app related.

Turn on " show touches" in developer options to help verify if you the save thing happening.
I don't have to reboot mine but I have to lift finger of screen and put back on to get it to properly detect where the touch should be.

So just as a follow up I reverted to stock for 5 days and didn't see this issue. Flashed back to AOKP and Franco kernel and now it's happening randomly when I go to hang up a call. I tap on the red hang up bar and it detects the touch in the top left corner.
I called Google play support but since I didn't buy my device from them they directed me to lg.
I'm starting to think it's my screen protector.

lol, I had insensitivity issues on the bottom of the screen way back, I use a displayed pin pad on lockscreen so I just tap a certain spot to unlock, I sometimes wonder why the digitizer register incorrectly.
flashing a different kernel helped, I'm using motleys.
Have had this problem since launch, im on stock rooted, maybe its a certain app?
If anyone wants to compare their apps with me to find a similar problem, shoot me a pm
