First of all, sorry if this or a fix to this has already been posted.
The keys on of my hermes are dead-just the 6 and top 2 (msg & ie), the centre scrolling thing works. the outer keys;comm mgr, camera, jog dial etc. work.
i had this problem a few months ago and it worked itself out after a month or so i think. i've opened it up to but it looked fine.
it's a little annoying, especially the lack of the endcall button.
Anyone else have/had this problem?
thanks
merry christmas everyone
strange, its fixed itself
sorry i wasted this thread.
my advice to anyone to whom this happens: leave it be.!
ooh..dead again
It could be related to the white-screen issue. This issue is apparently caused by a weird connection to the d-pad itself (which also controls the mail/internet buttons at the top of the phone, as well as the send/end call keys). I'm currently in the process of trying to fix my phone. Anyway, for some more info, check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321163&highlight=white+screen
If you start seeing a white screen soon, then you definitely know that this is it.
Hi to all, i have my brand new Leo, and I installed some spb games. All was ok since this morning when, I turn it on and i see that in notification area there is the antenna icon half visible and the speaker icon completely invisible (see attachment).
After that, I tried to install also dutty task manager but does not improve the situation.
What can I do?
many thanks!
pls, anyone with this problem?
I do not want to already hard reset...
Kinda says it all in the Title.
Ive recently changed my theme to be very minimal,
including removing the start & close softkeys on screen (WM6.5.5)
Now, I use the hardware keys instead.
The problem is that because I use the hardware keys a lot,
they light up a lot & I have actually seen a slight drop in battery life.
The other problem is when I want to use my phone at 3am after being woken
by a text from a friend & all of a sudden Im blinded by the backlights behind
the four buttons.
Does anyone know if there is a way to permenantly disable them without taking
the device apart & ripping them out?

Hi,
I have a HD2 since november last year and so does a friend of mine. Today I tried to fix something for him on his HD2 and I noticed that his vibration is alot more noticeable, more a bouncy vribration instead of just vibration. My HD2 only vibrates a little.
Has anyone else expierienced this 'bug'? And is it fixeable?

check whether the LED flasher is little bit inside the housing
if yes then remove the housine and fix it
I don't expect there's much that can be done if the hardware is to blame. This reminds me of my Galaxy S3 -- so it's a problem that everyone else fixed ages ago. When I touch the touchscreen, very very often, it doesn't register that touch at all. Sometimes you get a delayed response. This leads to all kinds of fun where you tap the screen again at the same moment that PH-1 responds to your first touch, so it applies your second tap to whatever is going to come up on the screen a half second later.
Does anyone know if this can be fixed by firmware updates or is this a hardware issue?
same here! my huawei honor 8 is much faster
Touch Screen unresponsive is a hardware issue. I had the same problem with my HTC U11 until it was replaced. Essential phone does not have this issue assuming screen is working properly.
Sent from my Pixel XL using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Touchscreen responsiveness, having to tap more than once for the screen to register a touch and awful light bleed caused me to send it back. But it was from the first batch that were manufactured. No issues on my U11, but I bought it in early August.
Confirming u installed the most recent OTA (NMI64C)? Because that fixed my touch issues.

Yep that's what I currently have. I think the phone found that update on its own a few days ago. Touch issues seem to be hit or miss and maybe less frequent since that update. We'll see how it goes from here.
touch unresposive is due too thermal trottling or like me the launcher stock.
Solved with Evie launcher
Using a different launcher and such didn't help me out, unfortunately. Besides the tap issues, scrolling through a web page in any browser or with apps was extremely slow and laggy. My PH-1 was already being returned, so I couldn't test the latest software update they pushed out. But my device also had some horrible light bleed all along the left and right edges.
No light bleed here. But [email protected], the responsiveness of this touch screen is worse than any other phone I've had. And the new software update hasn't helped at all!...
Same issue!
I too am having touch screen issues. Today, I was on the phone and went to go back to the screen and the screen stays black. I tried everything including pressing the power button and I got no response from the phone whatsoever. The only thing that finally worked was to press the power button and the volume down button and hold them at the same time to shut my phone off after the call already ended. In addition to that issue , I also use Swipe to type and when I do so it often skips over letters and types words that I am not even trying to type . It should be mentioned that I'm a very experienced swipe user and I have not had this problem with my S7 Edge or my Wellington . Also, I should mention that I have the most recent OTA. Also, has anyone else noticed that the camera shutter has a serious delay in it even with the Google camera mod?
I've noticed my touch screen freaking out sometimes. It has more to do with the screen having too many prints on it. Guess it's a bit too sensitive. I wipe the phone screen off and it's fine. Doesn't happen very often. I have one of the latest batches, pure white.
Already looked into this?
Sensitivity:
1. Tap on the "Settings" icon on the home screen.
2. Tap "Language and Input".
3. Scroll to the very bottom of these settings and tap "Pointer Speed".
4. Increase the slider to make the touch screen more sensitive and easier to tap. Decrease the slider to make your touch screen less sensitive and more difficult to tap.
5. Tap "OK" and then experiment with the results.
Essential Support still working on that and they send me this instructions for now.
I think it makes the user experience better.

Same.
Hope it will have a fix soon.
Early on I got the black screen that required a power hold reboot, since moving to Oreo I've not seen that

This I have experienced too
edit : solved with oreo beta
basongwe said:
When I touch some letters on my keyboard, it's unresponsive. Same with some apps. I don't know why this phone is so frustrating to use even if it's a very good smartphone.
EDIT : I'm on Nougat's lastest version, not on Oreo beta.

Had it on both versions to be honest, but hoping it's getting resolved as time goes on!
Just got mine..same thing but...
My screen was doing fine until i installed "All in one gestures". I was messing around with side gestures and this caused the screen to be non-responsive. I un-installed the app, reinstalled it and set it up differently and now it is fine.
I hope this helps.

This helped me. I have mine set at approximately 3/4 and I'm happy one day in. Seems to work great now. I would still like smoother scrolling though. Thanks a million.
I was also having trouble with Android Pay and then found a post about the NFC being located near the bottom of the phone as opposed to the top as on my Nexus 6p.
With these problems fixed I'm completely pleased with this phone.
ugh! Flashed back to stock on 7.1.1/NMJ32F/436 as that is how my phone came, and now I have no touchscreen after re-boot?!?!?! any advice? Please?
Thanks,
DJ
