Any solutions? I want to know is it software or hardware problem?
edit: Specs
Marshmallow 6.0.1 G900HXXSACQAA/G900HOJP1CPL1/G900HXXU1CPCA
Smart Launcher Pro 3.16.06PX
Waouuuuuuu....
Never seen that before.
Backup, flash new firmware and reboot.
If problem still present, it's a material problem.
Good luck mate

Seems to be a standard problem. I have it too.
Internet forums are full of this problem.
Buy another phone than Samsung.

I've seeb it alot actually. I mean the wake up problem. But noone seems to fix it yet. If anyone did please tell me
Has anyone test this with older Android 5?
The "Weird" Screen in Low Brightness is AMOLED Burn-in due to intensive use, My S5 Have this problem too.
Try changing the HW overlay / Force GPU rendering in developer options, others have said that works for them, it seemed to for me also but only temporarily. I have had to stop using auto brightness.
Device not waking up is very irritating, even double tap the screen to wake has the same problem, doesn't seem to be the buttons themselves. If you have a custom rom or other way to set double pressing the power button to launch the camera it works as a workaround for me.
Thank you for all the answers guys.

edit1:it's better than before. I will feedback later. Also gonna try that camera trick
edit2: It's same again. Tried Home2 Shortcut the get the camera trick. It also didn't work because i want my phone to be locked and it doesn't work on locked status
Any other suggestions guys?

Flashed Wanted ROM, it's still the same. It was better at start tho and somehow it freezes less in battery saving mode.

baaahahahahaha!!! My fiancee has a OnePlus 2 and is a pretty big fan of it. The camera app for samsung TW is far superior tho
I received a Z17 a few days ago and have really struggled with it. The phone feels really good but I am finding operation really difficult - the screen seems excessively sensitive. Most of the time when I touch or sweep the screen it register multiple touches - I hear multiple ticks. More often than not the app just tapped on opens then immediately closes (not force closing just going into background). Operating the phone is near impossible.
Is there a way to re-calibrate the screen sensitivity?

I don't have that issue. My screen issue is that it's too dark. I have to put it over 75% brightness or higher. I have a Bluboo Maya Max that also have an LCD screen from JDI that is pretty bright at 25% level.
Brightness seems OK here - although I might not be the best person as I typically run my screens at minimum/very low brightness unless I am out in the sun.
The sensitivity issue is driving me nuts though.
Bee
Updated to latest software version (2.44) but this has not improved the situation.
I have noticed that this is worst when I pick up and use the phone after it has been sat for a while. Things settle down if I continue to use the screen for an extended period of time - it seems like the screen is hugely sensitive and is picking up static on my hands.
Hopefully there will be a way to recalibrate the screen, maybe once root, unlocked bootloader and custom roms all become possible.
Still surprised no one else has reported this issue. Really hoping to find a way to re-calibrate the screen sensitivity.
Here is a video showing the problem. Basically it is nearly impossible to use the phone when you first pick it up, it does seem to improve after continue use.

If you turn up the volume (and watch the red home indicator) you will hear/see that each touch is being registered multiple times.

i will receive my Z17 on Tuesday... then, for my part, i will answer again.
actually i have an off topic question: u can use google chrome?
if yes, how?
any other google apps?

Yes - chrome works. You will need to get from apkmirror or similar.
Like others I tried installing google framework & play but this didn't work. Google music would run but unless you have local files you can't do anything with it.
I REALLY want to like this phone but so far it just isn't usable as a daily driver.

I have the same problem, exactly as you describe it! It appears that it's the Recent Apps button that has the problem (at least on my phone) as it is the only one that activates on its own. It also seems as if it "accumulates" button presses when left alone, so it has to "release" them during the first couple of minutes that you pick it up again. Then it is more or less ok.

I was hoping the same but this is not the case unfortunately. Problem is still there with the latest Resurrection Remix (5.8.4). It's a shame, it's a great phone otherwise but this bug is driving me mental
Not just me!
Sort of pleased someone else has the same problem! Agree that it isn't fixed in RR. Hopefully there will eventually be a solution.
I tend to deal with it by holding the phone between my two palms (i.e. holding my palm fully across the screen) for a second or so when I pick the phone up after it has been sat for a while. This seems to reduce the sensitivity (or remove static build up?) and things work normally.
Of course this shouldn't be necessary and not something you want to do when trying to answer a call.

Hello Boboskins
Can't access to your video
Sadly still not found a solution. I have tried RR (up until about 10 days ago) and now using Mokee. Appreciate your comments on the recent updates - I will take a look at the log in case the latest RR updates solve anything.
EDIT: Ursus91, just took a look and Photobucket appears to have stopped allowing 3rd party views. I will upload somewhere else and update the link once I am done.
@boboskins : thanks, it should be helpful to understand the problem you encounter. I'm not sure to understand. And I'm still waiting to use the phone every day
I have the same problem
Same problème here ! When i use the phone it seems it close app or back like i hit the button. :/ Really annoying :s
Hello,
I have the same problem too. The sole solution from GeekB is to return the phone for repairing...
I have it sometimes on the left button (in the major cases), the middle button has actually no problems, the right, sometimes.
I use the middle button to come back to "the main view" (icons) and then, the left button seems going alive.
I'm not sure it is a hardware problem
Edge gestures issue
Greetings!
I've just started using Nubia Z17 Lite and found out that the specific edge gesture to control the brightness level doesn't work on my unit. Does anyone know if this is a bug that can be resolved by an update or did anyone have the same issue and has fixed it?
I'm quite sure the problem isn't with the hardware because other edge gestures seem to work fine.
Thanks ?
Nubia Z17 black screen

Technically it could be done since we can disable it when in battery saver mode or in total silent mode,i have mi 5 earlier and there is mod for that yet its miui tho.
Im just thinking how much battery life we could save if that vibrate turned off,imagine we unlock the fingerprint sensor all the time right? And its always vibrate everytime we tap it.so technically we could save more battery life without sacrificing some important features

There is sure a way, either via some exposed module or custom rom or kernel, which either is yet not available. And the battery life is excellent on this phone, doubt that disabling vibrating will save much battery.
Hello everyone,
we finally have a way to remove this awful vibration everytime we unlock our phone through the fingerprint!
Yesterday gravitybox was released for oreo (https://www.xda-developers.com/all-in-one-xposed-module-gravitybox-android-oreo/) and comes with an option to disable this vibration, works like a charm.
I advice you tu use xposed with magisk to be systemless, or just install xposed normaly.

Sorry, there is no way to do it. I actually came to search how to enable vibration. After Oreo update to 8.1.0 my phone stopped vibrating or giving any sort of feedback while unlocking through finger print.
And I laughed because you are searching for exactly opposite thing and both yours and mine query are impossible.

Xiaomi just make the vibration the lowest possible
I can still feel it but it is less than touching the home button vibration
You'll live with it ^^

Yes I know they have minimised it. I read it through official forums. But, what I'm saying isn't stupid. I'm not a novice when it comes to android, app development, rooting, adb, etc.
When I'm saying it is gone, it really is gone from my phone. Not even 1% vibration is there in the sensor. Updates do affect some phones differently. It happens due to various reasons and it happens! In real!

Okay so yeah I though you were not noticing the vibration as it have been reduced a lot.
Now I see you have feelings so
I could suggest something
you should be able to make vibration stronger
Not sure about stock kernel
The idea is to make the default vibration stronger to see if you notice it with fingerprint
If the fingerprint vibration is based on a percentage of the default one there's a chance you can feel it and so you probably have a different vibrator or a light one that need to be set a little more high than default
This can also make non sense if fingerprint vibration is a separate value and also you can just have a bug and the best solution is to factory reset or wait the next ota to see if it's fixed
Hope you'll be able to find a solution
The fingerprint sensor still vibrates but its very faint.

No vibrations will change fingerprint vibration settings until I'm rooted.
I can sense mere vibrations of FOSS keyboard settings too at minimum possible (1 point).

This worked for me with my oneplus 6 on Lineage Thanks, I was finding it really irritating.
Hi guys,
I have to fire 7 in tablets both bought at the same time from same place. Both are running the same Lineage-12.1 ROM (12.1-20170802-Unofficial-ford)
But for some reason when i keep them side by side one of them has a very dull screen brightness where as the other is nice and visible. I am not sure if this has to do with the hardware or some missing setting in the one that is dull. I tried making both 100% bright from the upper menu but the screen difference is still the same.
The bottom image is the brighter one. Any idea if some setting somewhere is causing this?

On checking further I noticed that the tablet which is showing dull color seems to show the exact same even when I adjust the brightness slider in the top menu. When the slider is on 0 or 100% its the same. that tells me that the software slider is somehow broken?

Known kernel issue with custom ROMs. Symptoms typically rectified with a reboot. If no joy try a full power down with a 5 sec pause before restarting.

Sorry for the late response Davey126, for some reason it didn't post my reply when I used my cell phone the other day. I tried to restart a few times but still have the same screen issue the brightness controls dont respond. Will upgrading to the latest release help with this issue? Is there any other fix to permanently fix the problem?
Thanks for your help.

Probably not. Likely have to sideload a full version of FireOS to refresh/replace the kernel - then start over. There is no known 'fix' for the problem other than keeping memory load to a minimum (or using the swap tweaks that I outlined elsewhere).

Hi everyone,
Don't know for sure if this is the right place to post the thread as it is a Miui 10 problem.
As I am totally happy with my rooted Poco F1 on LineageOS, I bought my girlfriend a Redmi Note 7 recently (which i keep unrooted). Great phone overall, but there is one big issue for us and that's the DND (Do Not Disturb) mode. First of all, when DND activated there are still Whatsapp notifications which is a well known bug in Miui, because I read it everywhere. Anyway, I just disabled the notifications in Whatsapp so that's no big deal anymore.
Bigger problem is the incoming phone calls in the DND mode. When someone is calling (not a favourite/starred contact), it's almost impossible to see if the phone is 'ringing'. The screen keeps black and only when you activate te screen you see a small green block in the left top corner with 00:00 written in it. This is pretty frustrating as we never can see if anyone is calling. This is the first time I face something like this, usually the screen lights up and you will see the incoming call information. On LineageOS it works perfect actually...
Somebody facing the same problem? If yes, is it possible to solve, as DND mode is complete useless for us now...
Thanks already!
Best wishes,
Mark
UP! Sorry for being pushy, but this is really important to use the phone in a proper way.
Thanks again!
Mark
I think this is just a Miui 10 'bug'. Does this forum have a Miui 10 section where I can post this question? I searched for it, but I can't find it that quick. Maybe I'm a bit blind as well
Thanks!
Mark
Sorry to bother, but is there no one who face this problem? Or is it just how the DND function works?
This is not how usual DND works. It's just an Miui thing. I too find it annoying since I depend on DND a lot. Best option is to unlock and flash a custom ROM with normal DND behaviour.

Thanks for your reply! Indeed, it's pretty useless this way...
I'm running a custom ROM on my Poco F1, but as this phone is for my girlfriend I don't want to flash if not needed. She just use her phone very simply, and I think rooting is not neccessary for her. She don't has any benefits from it, except a nice working DND modus
Keep us posted in case you find a solution without flashing a custom rom

Hello OP!
I do not have solution for this problem, but I'm here to cheer you up, as I came to this thread facing the same problem on my Mi Mix 3. Unfortunately, it looks like we are the only two MIUI users who suffer from this feature. Hopefully there is third one in the world wide web who knows the workaround and share it with us.

Yeah, I think it's pretty strange that nobody cares about this, so maybe we are using it the wrong way. Anyway, I'm always in silent mode excluding for starred contacts. Maybe it will be solved in the future, we will see...
Take care!
I would check with the Xiaomi MIUI community forums to see if anyone's found a fix over there.
They're way more active with MIUI information vs XDA

What's your problem with rooting?
To use custom ROM you need open bootloader, have root... it's your choice, usually custom roms don't have root by default, who want can flash magisk package.
My wife using now phone with custom rom, without root. I changed the rom, because the phone is old, and don't get official update.
Other option can be to use alternative DND app, what you can configure as you wish.
Just posting to let you know that I have the same issue, and it is very annoying.
At least my Mi Band vibrates even on DND mode (which shouldn't happen, but lol right now it's good that it does because otherwise I'd have no way to tell that someone is calling). When sleeping, the watch detects it and also stop notifications. Which is also annoying, DND on the watch and on the phone should be in sync but that's just a perfect example of how very unperfect Xiaomi's ecosystem is.
I guess a "solution" could be to use "Silent" mode instead of DND and disable vibration? Didn't check if even possible, just a thought.
