Hey everybody,
I bought this phone last week and installed a skinomi screen protector. I removed it after about 12 hours to try and remove some dust from underneath the screen. I set it aside to do it later and I powered the phone on without the screen protector, I was really surprised when I got a screen that said that the lcd appeared damaged.
Knock-on does not work at all, if I apply pressure to the right side of the screen it simulates a weird half touch to the right. Any ideas? I'll probably just add the phone insurance and get a new one unless someone has a fix.
Thanks

Why not just take it back. You are still in the 14 day window.

Are the Skinomi wet application? Maybe you used too much water or something and it damaged your screen.

I plan to do that tomorrow.
maybe, but I've done alot of them and I've never had a problem before...
That screen pops up if you hold a certain button combination too. I can't remember how I found it but I was looking in the system files via nova, and noticed it. May not even,be damaged.

Yeah, it didn't come from a button combo, verizon people swapped me out, I went to best buy and grabbed the blue htc one for $50, that'll do the trick for now, thanks everybody!

Same thing happened to me applying a skinomi. Phone worked perfect with the protector but removed it and got the popup saying it's damaged.
Any updates?
Screen is working when it wants.
Hi, got my OnePlus two today.
I have two issues so far.
1. The home button seems to only work 1 or 2 times out of 5 presses. Should I RMA?
2. There is no native exchange email support. Anyone know why?

The home button sucks on mine too. Doesn't always register touches. Useless as a fingerprint reader too. I am using onscreen buttons.
Don't know about the email: I use Nine (by far the best exchange email app) which works fine.
Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk
Just a tip: I found turning vibration on touch setting on and sliding my thumb slightly up the button makes the home button work better. I think we just need to get use to a button that doesn't actually move.
Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk
if you press it like an button it works well, dont lightly tap it like the screen
I heard that they will fix that problem with the home button with an OxygenOS update!
I hope so. It's nowhere near as good as the Fingeprint scanner on my honor 7

I just got mine. The Home buttin is pretty fine. You have to get learn how it works.. Because the home buttin is under the FingerPrint Sensor. I don't have any problems, maybe at the start but now it is ok! As for exchange email you just use GMAIL app!
EDIT:
For exchange email , download Gmail exchange apk from APKMIRROR and install it. Don't forget to open unknown sources first.

Same issue for me. Its grounding because my hand is also on the metal frame of the phone. If I put the phone down and tap the home button it registers, same if the phone is flat in my hand and not touching the frame, works perfectly. Really annoying.
Major home button issues for me too. I had to switch to on screen buttons because I was getting too many missed home button taps and it was driving me mad.
Wondering if it's a hardware issue with all of them or just some. Maybe the people who don't have issue just have oilier or sweatier hands as very dry hands seem to make the home button less sensitive.

good to hear, maybe that's why they slowed up the invites and fixed it quietly.
My home button is working flawlessly
I think it's about getting used to this home button. In starting I too had issues with home button but now I don't. Just give it some time.
If you have oily or sweaty hands and not really dry ones then you probably won't have an issue ... until winter.

Haha! Yeah. True. The official forums are full of people getting really irate with this.
Mine's fine -- acts up every now and then. I've added an assistive touch button instead of activating the on-screen nav buttons. Saves space and is generally not intrusive -- sort of like the way Apple's own assistive touch button is.

Agreed. Since I started pressing instead of lightly tapping it works fine.

I love this phone but problems with Home button are a little bit terrifying....Actually I've put my OP2 into gel case and problem with home button is gone...so it is really because of hand touching the bezel...WTH :?
I just believe that the bezel is a touchable one and we will receive some kind of nice feature like grab and squeze a phone to make a screenshot or something...OP please, do not kill my faith in You...

I wish it was a feature, but honestly, it seems like a design flaw. It doesn't seem like it's affecting all the devices, but it definitely is affecting the one that I received today. If I push the home button like a physical button it works fine, but if I tap like a capacitive button it doesn't work often. My guess is that there's no way around this, and that Oneplus won't consider it a problem.

Wow are you are the one I was looking for, I ordered Honor 7 from small for UK and meantime I got Invite for Onwplus 2 which make me confused and I don't want to sell my account to someone so I ordered two days ago and not processed yet, same thing with Honor 7 ordered on 2nd but still waiting
I like both phone but price for Honor 7 is simply just blow OP2 and premium body, Irda, FM radio, Cat 6 and fast charge so Honor 7 is my 1st choice, I am plan to sell OP2 as it comes without even opening as there is NO point keep two phone without NFC as Android pay is just around the corner, As you are having OP2 and H7 I would like opportunity so ask you about with
Which one have better fingerprint reader?
Which is one have better camera quality?
Which one have better screen?
Sound, audio etc.?
Do you think is impossible to put two SIM + 1 SD altogether in slot as somebody scribe in Chinese forum ?
can you advise which one to keep ?
Does anybody know if the screen on the Moto X Pure supports this function? Its certainly nice to not have to pick up the phone to take a quick peek at the screen.
I really would like it to be but i dont think it will im coming from a G4 and its one of the best features
once we get root and make a kernel
i think you can move your hand over it to get active display on from there you should be able to wake i think
It wakes before you touch the screen by just reaching for it. Far better than double tap to wake

I agree. The phone will wake when you wave your hand over it. So if there is dirt or anything unpleasant on your hands, you don't have to touch the phone at all to wake it. This is better than 2x tap. And if your phone is on the edge of something, there isn't a chance that you will knock it down, since you won't have to touch the phone.
D2W is old school. Say hello to waves.
Sent from my Moto X (2014) via Tapatalk
Waving isn't not a replacement for double tap... No one should assume that. Some folks love double tap. I hope to see it added soon
Waving is less reliable also. I have to wave a few times to wake it up sometimes. That did not happen with d2tw on other phone I tried.
I like the wave, but I do miss dt2w that takes you directly to your home screen. But to be honest, 95 % of the time I did dt2w, I was checking the time or seeing if I had any messages and didn't need to go to my home screen, so the wave is pretty cool in that fact.
Waving isn't a replacement true, I would of liked to see dttw as well its a good replacement since when u hold ur phone with one hand using ur thumb to do so and wake up the phone
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
You don't have to wave. The screen wakes as you approach it. The screen comes on long before you can double tap..
i hope we can get the double tap to wake soon. the waiving thing is kinda janky doesn't work all the time and would like it to bring me to the full lock screen rather then a dark black screen .
I have to admit I am kind of spoiled by it from my G2. My X won't be here until next week so the jury is still out on the wave. At least I know i can double tap off once I get my Nova loaded.
I actually miss double-tap to lock/sleep more. The waving is cool enough for waking it back up, but having to mash the power button to lock it sucks.
I found a couple of transparent widgets that kind of do this, but the problem is that they are incompatible with Trusted Devices (BT, NFC) that I use a lot, and you have to reenter your pin if you use these widgets.
I guess I can't have my cake and eat it too....

No s**t? I've been using Nova for the past couple years and didn't realize it.
EDIT: looks like it's a Prime feature. I guess it's time to pony up some $$$ and give the dev some well deserved cash

Did a clean install when 5.1.1 came out... just upgraded to most recent fw but it's been like this since I upgraded to lollipop.
My Z3C never had this issue. DT2W works flawlessly but it's disabled on my phone because it was waking up too often while in my pocket
The thing is DT2W worked flawlessly on the first kitkat FW when this phone came out... After the upgrades you'll hv to move it like pick it up then it'll work properly. If you leave it on a flat surface for awhile and tap it without moving it then it'll be like in the OP's video.

It's the same for me. Worked very good on 4.4, now only with movement before on 5.0, 5.1. I think they tried to make it less sensitive to waking the screen in the pocket or something. Though not the best solution.

If it wakes up in your pocket, then make the screen face outwards when you put it in your pocket problem solved :'D That's what i do anyway.

GravityBox has this "Proximity wake-up" feature.
The phone will never wake-up when the proximity sensor is covered (even when you use the power button instead of double-tap)
Sometimes the double tap doesn't respond well at all.

I didn't notice any battery drain using that feature.
It seems the sensor is not used all the time. Maybe it is used only when there's an attempt to wake up the phone.

lol so you have a case and a tempered glass screen protector and you are adjusting the way you put your phone in your pocket in order to avoid the possibility of grinding your hip into a wall whilst avoiding someone. wow. you are one cautious individual.
Just get gravity box. Once you have that tap to wake is perfect.
