Here's a peculiar issue and I'm trying to resolve it.
Whenever a call is made using CM10/CM9 the dialer automatically minimizes in background because Service Provider sends a message saying what discount is available on this call. Probably to show the message, dialer minimizes itself.
I have to go back to the notification drawer, select current call and then go back to the call after hitting okay at the message. This is very annoying, specially when speaker phone is not enabled and I'm unable to drag down the notification drawer because proximity sensor detects my hand too close to the display.
Point is this doesn't happen in stock ROMs, any of them be it ICS/GB. I tried replacing the dialer from stock but its integrated in CM10 framework thus replacing files doesn't help. I tried some dialer apps, they do work by not getting minimized but then I don't really like using them, CM10 dialer or stock dialer looks much better than custom ones.
Probably this issue doesn't happen to much or rather any fellow member here, but would appreciate some input that can help me fix the problem.

If I swipe right on a contact, make a call, but exit out of the call window and hit the dialer on screen, it doesn't show the current phone call. It just shows the default dialer. The only way for me to end a phone call is to use the drop down menu.
Basically, it is really annoying and I am wondering if it is just some small user error that I am committing.
I have been running LP since 30 min of getting the phone (couldn't stand TW interface) and almost a week with my phone here and no problems with LP at all. Try reinstalling the app or doing a master reset.

I noticed that earlier today when I was reading a tracking number to someone over the phone. It's such a pain. I just tested it today, went back and forth between Launcher Pro and TouchWiz. I hope it's not something that will be too difficult for the Launcher Pro devs to fix, and not some weird TouchWiz thing that can'e be worked around.
I have noticed the same issues with not being able to easily get back to an in progress call. If you press and hold the home button you can then tap on the dialer and get back to your call no matter what launcher your using. ADW does the same thing by the way. This is why I have not been able to jump to either alternative launcher.
I thought this happened because the dialer shortcut was linked to whatever action the pull down status bar icon was assigned to, but even if I create a home screen shortcut to the dialer, it still works the way it should while in TouchWiz.
I started a thread on the Launcher Pro forums. I copied and pasted the above onto it.
Edit: None of the Activies under either of the Dialer menus seem to work. I thought I could find whatever that static icon does and create my own shortcut.

I just realized... this is obviously because the static/unremovable dialer icon in the TouchWiz dock is linked to the same action as using the pull down menu and tapping the dialer icon. Still, I wonder if there's a workaround for this.

The contacts for me does not work by default either. I had to replace their contacts shortcut by long pressing and changing shortcut with the application contacts stored in our phone. I am sure this has to be an easy fix.
I just replaced my stock Touchwiz dialer with exDialer, and love it! I was wondering if anyone knows how to get rid of the Touchwiz in call screen, the ugly screen that shows the number, allows you to mute, switch to speaker, etc. I find that screen very, very ugly and poorly designed.
I installed Not Call Log, so I don't have to see it after the call hangs up, but I'd like to replace it completely or find a workaround. Any ideas? I've tried a Ultimate Call Screen HD but there is a super long delay when clicking the call button in exDialer. Almost like the app is freezing, so that won't work.
I imagine that this, like my other problems with my n4, is likely to be the result of my tinkering more than the phone itself... But seeing as I'm not terribly skilled, and I don't as much time as I'd like to fiddle around with my phone... I'm reaching out to the hive mind.
One of the problems thats annoying me the most right now is the voice to text button on the google keyboard. Namely it isn't doing anything. No error message, no change to the helpful microphone shaped circular button waiting to convert my dulcet tones into words... nothing.
To be honest I'm not entirely sure when this began, because its not a feature that I used frequently, unless alone in my car at a stoplight or something and I want to slam out a quick text. The mic still works fine, and gNow has no problem triggering and responding to me - it just seems as though the action is never triggered by the button.
I'm currently running KK, bootloader unlocked, rooted, xposed framework, gravity box, and a few other smaller modules (dictionary blacklist for example). Minimal rooted applications such as titanium and tasker, but nothing fancy is being done with them (didn't deepfreeze any system apps or set up any related tasks). The keyboard app is the google one with only small tweaks that are built in like the blue trail and shorter longpress time. I have offline voice to text set up, and this issue is present on wifi or network regardless.
Any tips? has anyone had this problem before? can anyone point me to a potential culprit or a way of finding one?
Need help as my phone became barely usable aftaer OTA update.
The top end of the screen (about 1 cm top to down) is not responding to touch. I cant tap any input in common use cases like using google search box widget, answering a call while in app using the new call feature, tap Send when composing an email and so on...
The only case this part of screen is active is when pulling down the notification bar, tapping objects like the clock (time display) Setting icon etc'. So I beleave this is not a hardware issue.
I did wipe the catch with no help and reset to factory setting with no help as well.
Did anyone experiance the same issue?
Any idea how can I overcome this except down grading back to 4.4.2?
Any easy trick for some one who is not a developer or deeply technical?
THANKS!
OnePlus One's screen has some bugs. One them is BACON-347 (https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-347) The first touch in any location while a phone call, pulls down the notification panel. This app can fix notificaiton panel opening problem while a phone call.
Immersive mode without root or xposed mode. Now it is possible to prevent this bug FOREVER.
Please remember that this app only work during phone call. If you have other touch screen issues please report that bugs to OnePlus.
Until this post 1000+ users installed and 89 of them gave 4.66 point for review. According to Flurry, this app fixed this problem more than 221,000+ times (5k in a day).
What is the problem: The problem is shown in the BACON-347 (https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-347). There is some ghost touch above status bar which cause to open notification panel. After first touch to screen, phone assume that these two touches releated (Your touch and ghost touch) and tell to system there is a slide from first touch to second one. This action opens the notification panel. But if the second touch is for hang up to call phone cant do that because it assume that you want to open notification.
How this app works: During a phone call, this app put a view above status bar and absorbs the effect of ghost touch(When this happened, fix count increase) After user's first touch, if user try to hang up call, app assists user and close the call. But if user touch any other position other than close button, app closes and dont open the notification panel. That is all.

yes i was always wondering what the issue was. I will definitely give this a try.
It works sometimes to well
I have been using this app for probably about a week now. I can confirm that it works and has solved issues like when trying to end a call the notification bar comes down covering up the end call button so I dont end the call. The downside is if like you multitask a lot when on the phone and you need to pull the notification bar down it can be a pain. The app basically stops touch responses on the top left of the screen, so if you there is something you actually need to touch up there you have to disable the app. Which is easy enough just gets annoying. However I have discovered if you need to pull down your notification bar while in a call you can still do so by pulling down on the top right corner to pull down the quick toggles and then flip over to the notification area.
TL;DR - App works well and is worth it if constantly have issues with notification bar getting in the way when trying to end a call or it comes down after ending a call. Not without its flaws though if you multitask while on the phone.

What do you think if i put a button on screen for disable apps effects during call? Do you think it can be useful?

I think that would be great and helpful myself. As I said at times I must take get to the notification bar while on a call at times, which as I said I discovered if you pull down on the right for the quick toggles and flip over to notifications works. Not sure if it is possible as I do not do app development or if others would agree with me, but for me an option to disable whenever speaker phone is enabled and then enable again once taken off speaker phone would also work. As I find myself putting the phone on speaker whenever I need to multitask to the point that might require me to open up the notification bar.
Otherwise I find the app extremely useful as I said in the post before, appreciate your work.
I would recommend xposed force immersive module. Enable it on com.android.incallui and voila no sliding statusbar. It makes the incoming call fullscreen and you can not touch statusbar with your ear.

I updated app yesterday and add immersive mode without root or xposed. Now it is possible to prevent this bug forever.
Just tested this with a few calls, and it worked well.
Will continue to monitor. So far so good.
Thank you!

With the last Cyanogen OS 12 update for OnePlus One I verified that the bug still exists in Lolipop. I am wondering if it exists in OxygenOS.
