Ok I have never seen anything like this before. I don't even know what to call it, but for example I'll be in the YouTube app then randomly by its self scroll around hit the YouTube back button in the top right corner repeatedly. And when at the home screen itll do the swipe up from the hone button and go to google now a lot. A reboot temp fixes it but happens like 3x a day. Would flashing a Rom be good? If so what's the most stable stock like tom available

Its strange, when typing i end up missing out letters in words. The thing is i have watched the keys when typing and every one of them glows blue like it should, but yet there are letters missing.
Anyone else get this?

Yes happens to me. I noticed if I kind of drag the letter it won't register. For example if you hold down a letter till its blue, then drag away and let go, it wont register for me. If I lift directly upwards, it registers the letter every time.

Haven't noticed this on my I9505, try using another keyboard

I'm having this issue and it's doing my head in!
Every time I bring up the on screen keyboard the hue changes slightly to greeny tone. Then back again when keyboard goes.
I'm surprised not more people mention it.
The easiest way I found to see it was ten brightness right down, go to a dark room and open play store. Touch on the search bar to bring up recent searches and keyboard, then hit the back button, then touch touch bar again, then the back button. Keep doing this so your toggling keyboard on and off and watch the whole screen shift tone.
I'd love to know if it's an issue across the board or if only a few phones are affected.

I am facing the exact issue bro but i hope it will be a software related issue but i am also worried that may be we have defective handsets because very few people raised voice against this issue so it means that most users are not suffering from this issue.

Is this for the stock keyboard? I'm using SwiftKey though.

I tried with other keyboard and its still there

It's got nothing to do with the keyboard.
If you watch a movie on you tube (black and white is best) put to full screen and wait for slider to dissappear, then tap screen to bring it back. The hue changes to green!
It's whenever the screen has to bring something up like a keyboard, menu, slider etc.
Come on guys please can you test this so we know it's a problem on all handsets like smearing or if it's a hardware fault in a few handsets.

What auto tinting option ?? Where is it ??
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
Lol there is no 'auto tinting' option. If you mean adjust screen tone, it makes no difference.

This happens on kernels based on MDN below,
anything above MDM the tint issue is fixed.
On ME2 firmware and I experience the same issue. It feels kinda like a 'flicker'.
I have same keyboard tint problem too and its bugging me. Is it a sw or hw issue? Can it be fixed?

mostly all people have this problem & I was worried too about this. But update your phone. you should get a new update notification by now.! I already updated and it fixes this problem. and the smearing issue as well. And then you can also move your apps to sd!!!!!:victory:
Hi, just got my replacement after having some overheating problems and noticed this problem on the new one. I'm pretty sure is the screen, and not a software problem. Mine looks yellowish/greenish on the bottom. I downloaded Screen Test app and notice the problem. I have some pics showing the color differences along the screen. I'll go for another replacement tomorrow.

Coming from a Note 1 where I had a nice capacitive button to activate search.
Really don't want to keep a widget on my home screen just to get to Google Now/Search, but can't figure out how to map a hardware button to it.
Help?
What about a custom launcher with user defined functions invoked by a gesture?

Ya, I suppose that fixes all my problems. I was trying to stick with touchwiz for once, but I've finally bit the bullet and went back to Nova.
Thanks

Something weird is going on with my Nexus 4, I woke up this morning and all my icon locations are back to front! What I mean is up the top where the symbols on the right hand side of the screen where battery, reception and Wifi symbols usually are, they're now on the left side and the 3 buttons on the bottom are inverted and back to front. I'll upload a couple of screen shots to help explain.
As you can see also when I go into settings everything is opposite too.
Even scrolling through my apps I have got to swipe from left to right!
Anyone know how to fix this problem?

Have u tried simply rebooting it/
Also, is ur N4 rooted?
Yes I have tried rebooting it several times and no it's not rooted. Also, the most annoying thing with this problem I forgot to mention is the 3 buttons on the bottom are not responsive either. I've turned on "show touches" in developer settings and it seems that the very bottom of the screen is not registering touches. If I want to use the buttons I have to flip screen to landscape and move the buttons to the top of the screen.

Maybe it's an accessibility option? Check in Settings>Accessibility.
If found any seem to solve your issue, the most sure way to solve it is to flash a factory image. Check out efrants guide.
