Anyone know any way to make the touch buttons on the bottom less sensitive? Gees, I can't touch the phone without opening the Quick Search. It's not just the button, it's the entire right bottom corner of the phone which activates this. Any utility, tape, hack or anything else to disable this button?

Has anyone figured out how to adjust the touch sensitive buttons backlight settings?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis seems to be an issue that I may have just noticed. Sometimes when I turn on my phone the touch sensitive buttons do not light up. They may eventually light up but it would take a while. Also sometimes they light up immediately with no problem. Is anyone else having this same issue?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI got pretty good guessing the touch buttons one they time out, but still annoying as I did miss sometimes.Well just now, I decided to do something about it.A real quick poke through the phone revealed a very easy fix.The path is here.Settings[Sound & Display[Keyboard timeout[Same as Screen timeout my screen timeout is 1 min.As we all know, and I verified this. The keyboard backlight only turns on when the slider is open. Now the touch-sensitive buttons will infact stay lit as long as you would need them, while the screen is on .Life just got a little easier B)

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy galaxy s2's screen has occasionally stopped responding, the os was still running and everything so it wasnt frozen, my touch screen just simply stopped working. Only way to fix it was to hit the back of the phone and do a battery reset. This issue started poping up more and more, and now it won't respond.

No custom roms/kernels have ever been installed, has always run off the stock. Never been dropped or had water on it (I took very good care of it).
The nav bar at the bottom (back/search/options/menue) and hardware buttons all work. Everything above the screen no longer works.
What iv done: I've reset the phone, did a bettery pull for the night, fully charged it, looked at the board and checked all the connections (all good). Would flashing a custom rom/kernel be something to try next? Why would the bottom nav bar work but no the rest of the screen? Could it be locked somehow? If it is.. how would I unlock it?
Does anyone know how to make my Droid X screen a bit less sensitive to touch.What I mean is when scrolling for music or ringtones I barely touch the screen and it selects the song or ringtone.How can I desensitize it??

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am not able to find out the perfect layout(viewgroup) to place four buttons as shown in the attached image. Basically, i want to place four buttons near the top/left/bottom/right edge of the screen. AbsoluteLayout helped, but it is deprecated (It is also better to avoid AbsoluteLayout as it is not very flexible for orientation changes)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to get the display as dark as possible but I also want the display to remain touch sensitive.So I can't turn the display off, otherwise it wouldn't react to touch anymore. And I use WindowManager. LayoutParams. screenBrightness to get the screen as dark as possible. And I put a layer colored black over the entire display.That works, but at night one sees that the screen is still quite strongly illuminated.Does anybody have an idea of how to get the screen even darker?
View 5 Replies View RelatedJust 3 days ago my Hero started to not work properly. Touch screen (in the bottom, keys 7-8-9 of numerical keyboard) seems to be not completely sensitive and sometimes it doesn't work at all in that zone.
The curious thing is the phone starts working properly after using it for a couple of hours. If the device is in stand-by mode for a long time (i.e. during the night) the issue occurs. Has anyone had a similar problem or know of a solution?
For some reason my notification bar is no longer sensitive to touch. All the notifications are showing up but when I go to pull the screen down it no longer recognizes this action or that I'm touching it. Every once in a while it will work again for no reason that I can tell.
When I try and press on the bar it usually thinks I'm pressing whatever widget is at the top near it. I've tried moving finger positioning but to no avail.
When I use sp as my font size unit in the XML file, I go to spare parts and change font size, my app's font size is not changing. Does anyone know a way to resolve that?

View 20 Replies View RelatedComing from the iphone, those bottom buttons on the Vibrant are so difficult.First, it often takes some hunting to get them to respond, especially the far left one, which take several attempts quite often.Because they're not tactical in the dark, it's highly problematic that they LEDs time-out after a measly 3 seconds! What's the point of the LEDs if they're going to shine for that short of time?I'd have to say this is the most frustrating part of this phone. Hopefully, these woes can be cured with a software update?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI cant seem to find a setting that will allow me to keep the bottom four buttons lit for longer (setting, home, return, and search). They dont stay lit and it drives me nuts trying to guess which one I am hitting! By the way, this is my ONLY complaint about this device. I am madly in love with it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe buttons at the bottom of the phone (not the hard-press buttons, but the lower row of touch-screen buttons -- dialer, open app list, and contacts), are non-responsive.
Everything else seems to be working okay. Tried powering off/up, also tried battery pull, still the same.
I'm close to opting for "restore factory settings", but I've spent some time customizing, and that's really a last resort.
Most screen shots of Touchdown have the Home Screen Buttons on the left side. My Samsung Vibrant has them across the bottom and I can't figure out how to get them on the left.The Nitro Desk configuration manual shows them on the left, but the installation manual shows them on the bottom.It does not say in any of the manuals how to move them.
I am trying to build a layout dynamically which display some text and image for the most part, but has a series of buttons placed next to each other in the bottom. I have a linear layout that carries the text, another linear layout that carries the image. And yet another linear layout that carries the buttons that get created in a for loop. I have a main layout aligned vertical that adds the text, image and buttons layout, in that order. To finally generate something like this: Text Image Button1 Button2 Button3. The problem is the number of buttons get decided at runtime, so if there are more than 4 buttons, the 5th button gets displayed really tiny. Also, when I tilt the phone, I get only the text and image showing, but no buttons because the image covers the entire screen. Layout thing seems to be pretty complicated to me, any help is appreciated!
View 1 Replies View Relatedrecently the bottom buttons (ie. menu, back, etc) arent working as well as the side ones.I can only use the screen.Upon turning on the phone the buttons will work for a maximum 2 minutes and then I have to rely on the screen.I tried repairing and reinstalling everything but it didnt work.Ive also read that it could be from holding the camera button down but that is not the case.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy application has some buttons in the bottom part of activity layout, almost the same like iphone has on ipod app for example. I would like to create my layout so that it will self adjust on different screen sizes.
For example if the content in my layout has height = 400dip and the menu bar in the bottom has height = 100 dip, on every screen size (240*320, 320*480 etc.) i would like the menu bar to stay at the bottom so :
- on screen size 240*320 -> 100dip - for menubar -> 220dip - for content => it remains 180 dip to show, so this content area should be in some kind of a scrollview so that i can view 400dip in only 220dip.
I have tested different possibilities, with relativelayout so that the menu bar could stay on bottom, but i could not put the scroll view on top so that the scroll appears only on small screen sizes.
This is so sick, how do you build your layouts for different screen sizes ?
How do you space ImageButtons?
With RelativeLayout, I can have them side by side but I want a gap between them.
How do I place the buttons in the center and at the bottom of the screen?
The bottom four buttons on my droid leak light if I look at it certain angle...
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy app has 5 different relative layouts that it can switch between by using a set of buttons that is at the bottom of the screen. 3 of the layouts contain only TextViews and ImageViews. The other 2 both have a ListView in them. On the 2 views that contain lists when the soft keyboard appears the buttons that are along the bottom move up to on top of the soft keyboard. But on the other 3 views the buttons get hidden by the keyboard. The buttons all have the attribute android:alignParentBottom="true" does anyone know why they'd be behaving differently when one of these two are the active layout at the time?

The same feature also allowed you to swap around the applications view, and delete unused home pages. i dont need 7 pages id be fine with 4 or 5 (multicon FTW)
I returned my HTC hero after a week because it had a dead pixel, but I also noticed dust under the lower portion of the screen right above the buttons on bottom. I use a otterbox commuter case while has covers for the dock and head phone jack, so Im assuming the dust came in between the buttons and the bottom of the screen.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a layout that is three linear layouts. The top has some icons and the middle has a tabhost. Each tabhost has a list inside it. The bottom linearlayout has two buttons that should stay at the bottom on the screen at all times. The problem is when a list in the tabhost gets too long, it displays over the buttons. I tried to find some way to get the buttons to bedisplayed over the list but have failed so far.
