Hi everyone, for some reason that i can't understand, my wizard won't stay in landscape mode after i have selected the option in the Screen Setting; or at least it does, but when i close the keyboard it resumes the portrait mode, and the setting is changed back to portrait as well!
I really can't figure this one out, and i'd love if anyone could help me
Thanks to everyone willing to help
Ive been looking for this since i got a wizard

[Q] touch screen issue - specific coordinate

Hi all,
My N4 is a week old and there is a thing with the screen.
When on portrait mode, the area of the "c" letter isn't working and when on landscape mode, the "o" and/or "p" area isn't working.
Tried to switch to CM 10.1 but same issue there.
Tried different keyboard, same issue.
Anyone had it? Know what to do?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Help!

Does it respond when clicking on another screen where those same touches would be? Try to gently mark the spots you aren't getting a response and then go to another screen, like a link of some kind and see if you get a response. If you don't, I would say it's definitely a hardware issue and RMA time.

First thing: Activate developer options (Hitting build number in phone info seven times) and activate "show touches" and "pointer locations". Thus, you can locate your weak spot precisley (do it for landscape and portrait mode)
Then, do what the post above says. Check responsivness in other apps, browser, etc..
Next, I would install some kind of multi-touch-check app. With that, check again your weak point including multi touch responsivness. perhaps it has something to do with multitouch input - who knows.
If the problem in consistent, i would recommend to do an rma.
Edit: after finding out the location, lock the phone (display off) and have a look at the display. In bright light and under a certain angle, you can slightly see the digitizer. If the defective locatios corresponds to one digitizer substructre, it is a hardware fault (pretty sure)

Do I get a lemon?

After purchasing a Nexus 7 and fairly satisfied with it, I decided to purchase a Nexus 10 from Walmart since I want a bigger monitor estate and this 7 inches tablet start to get annoying when I read books on it. When I first used it, it was an awesome experience but then it goes downhill as soon as I upgraded it to 4.2.2.
One of the main reason why I want to get rid of my nexus 7 is because the screen keeps flickering if I am in a dark room and guess what kind of problem I have with the nexus 10? It is the auto brightness!!! If I understand this device correctly, the sensor is on the right hand side beside the camera (portrait mode, volume button on the right) and I am right handed. So now whenever I type something, I think I accidentally cover the sensor and the auto brightness kicks in and once I am done typing or lift up my hand, then the auto brightness kicks in again. It really annoys the hell out of me and please don't tell me the solution is to turn off the auto brightness. I mean the auto brightness option is there for a reason.
Does anyone have the same problem?

That is just the way you are typing, I guess.. If you don't want to Change the way you type (sensor would be more than half way up the screen, keyboard is only 1/3)..why not try another keyboard in landscape mode? I am using swiftkey 3 for tablet, split keyboard across both halves of the screen and like it much better than full keyboard in portrait mode.
Change they way you use it or turn off the sensor would be the only options. Rotate it to other positions and try not to activate it is the only other option.(you can use it with sensors/switches anywhere.. If you are just holding it with your left, then rotate switches into your left... Fix the problem with your right activating the sensor.)
Thank you for the respond. I would have thought it is due to design issue. I mean why they put the sensor on the right. There must be someone else is having this issue but then I don't see any posts about it so it must be the user.
Today is the 2nd day only so maybe I can change the way how I type or browse (I also notice the auto brightness issue when I browse online). I don't have this issue with other brand tablet though.
