Mute button - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It seems the mute button on the phone app doesn't work. When I click it in a phone call, it doesn't seem to work , and I no liberty see a notification of the mute in the status bar.
I'm on N4, CM 10.1 STABLE, with radio 27. Previously on stock I noticed same. And my previous phone with MIUI also mute seemed broken. Is this a problem going back to Goggles code? Or is there a fix?
Thanks

N7 Not Recognizing Touch EXCEPT Notification and Navigation Bars

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.

[WTF?] Install button not active

Ok, after having a blown speaker issue with my Nexus 7 3G, here's another one: I'm trying to install a apk and the install button cannot be pressed! WTF? Never seen this issue before?
Installing third party apps is enabled, and this seemed to work some while ago. I'm not sure WTF is happening.
Running stock 4.2.1 rooted.
Attached a screen shot where button is inactive :

That thread took me a whole 2 seconds to find with a google search for "cant hit install button android".
Please don't just instantly hit the new thread button. Ridiculous.
Please post questions in Q&A section.
Agree with you guys.
Apologies . I was in a shock state

Cracking Noise when touching the screen

Hello guys, I just recognized this weird Noise today after clean install of vanir nightly 23/9 they appear after pressing any button, but I can only hear them when i have my headphones plugged in... When the music plays, I dont hear them anymore. They appear after pressing anywhere on the screen and disappear after ca. 2 seconds...
Anyone with this Problem too? Could this be nightly related? Thanks for your help

Edit: this Noise appears also without headphones :-\ wtf where are they coming from? :'(

Don't panic. Nightlies are supposed to have bugs. Try a more stable version instead.
Nightly 25/9 Problem is still there, it seems to be "cracking" even when music is on, but the music is louder :-\ meaning it cracks when the track is changing while playing music...

Hello!
Try to switch off "clicking sound".
mobal,

[Q] Random glitchy/clicking sound from speaker, when pressing screen (no pattern)

Hi there
First some specs:
Nexus 4
PA3.99-RC2
Franco.kernel.plus 188.
SuperSU root
Latest gapps
I have tried asking in the the Paranoid Android Google+ discussion forum, but no useful answers yet. This is x-posted in general Q&A forum as well, to see if other devices also have this.
The problem:
When I use my phone I get random glitchy/clicky sounds from the top speaker (I'm pretty sure it's from there). It's a very quick glitch/click, and then it stops. It doesn't happen in a specific pattern, meaning that it's not like it comes whenever I press the back button or anything - it just happens sometimes. Sometimes more often than other. When I try to recreate the sounds (tapping a lot of menus, settings, apps, etc.) I find it difficult to recreate. It is REALLY random, perhaps mostly after I haven't used my phone for a while, and I turn it on!
Have anyone tried this, and knows a solution? It didn't annoy me at first, but now it really does.
As far as I remember it started when I upgraded to PA3.99. However, I have tried RC-1 and RC-2 and I have also tried stock kernel, Hellscore kernel and different Franco-kernel versions.

Just like you, I've noticed the noise but it sounds to me like its coming from the loud speaker. It doesn't happen that often and its hard to reproduce the sound (like you said). By the way I'm complete stock/unrooted with a lock bootloader. Hopefully its a software glitch and not hardware since the speakers don't sound busted.

Okay, it sounds like it could be the same thing. I don't think my speakers are busted either.. I guess the sound would come more often if that was the case.
It could be from the loud speaker.. Because it's so hard to reproduce, I can't really test it.
I would just love for it to go away.
Unfortunately I've never tested this phone with any other ROM other than 4.3 (Jwr66y) so I don't even know if it's a software glitch. Hopefully it is though.

Since we're experiencing what seems to be the same thing; I would think it most likely is a software thing. But I don't understand why - and why there isn't more people reporting this.....which makes me think I've done something wrong, hence the cry for help
Maybe some people don't notice it. It's not that much noticeable. The first few times I heard it I thought I was hearing things.

Yeah, maybe. I also only notice when there's not any other noise around me. Like when I'm laying in bed, etc.
Lmao. That's exactly when I hear it (laying in bed).

Yes I have it on my N4!! I also had it with my i9300 and my Nexus S. Very subtle. Glad I'm not the only one

I'm also having the same thing with Paranoid 3.98. Didn't have it on my Nexus S though.

Touchscreen issue

Hi Guys
I seem to be suffering from a issue where the touchscreen has a dead spot.
Now I had an earlier issue that caused all sorts of issues with screen responses - ultimately ending in no response unless I hit the power button to lock and then unlock.
That problem lasted about a week and then stopped - my thinking is that there was an app update that solved it.
Now however the issue has resurfaced (seemingly after other app updates) but it is a dead spot roughly where the first notification would be on the notification draw. Any ideas as how best to find out the cause of the issue, or a fix?
I've included screen shots showing the touch trace.
Cheers for any help

I can't help you but with some custom rom there can be a bug with it until I make some setting changes to the Nav Bar, but otherwise I don't know.
Forgot to say that this is stock 4.3

Many people are complaining about 4.3... It's causing many problems

What I don't get is why it went away after the first time.
I don't really want to factory reset if I can help it.
Is there a way to look at an update history for all your apps? Then I can pinpoint the offender.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I've found a solution.
After factory reset and safe mode not helping I came across a comment in another thread.
You have to Disable HW Overlays and Force GPU Rendering. Now its not perfect and can have an occasional fit but does seem to solve the issue
