"Touch sounds" bug? - Nexus 7 (2013) General

My new N7 (2013) doesn't play the "touch sounds" consistently, they're missing in about ~10% of all touches that would usually play the sound. The touch itself is registered, e.g. an app will open or the home button will go to home, just without the sound.
I just noticed that this seems to be connected to the loudness, it doesn't happen in the top 3 volume settings. On my device it starts with the media volume set to "4 clicks down from max" and below.
Speakers seem to function fine otherwise.
Anyone who can confirm this?
EDIT: A good way to reproduce this bug: set volume to 50%, tap a folder icon (opening a folder should trigger a touch sound), close folder - wait about 5 seconds before the next tap.
Doing the same procedure very fast plays the touch sound every time. Weird! If no one else can confirm this, I guess I'll have to send it back. :-|

I can't reproduce it.

I am experiencing the exact same issue, and can reproduce it consistently. Happens on both JSS15Q and JSS15R. This is a warranty replacement that just arrived a couple of days ago. I think I will call and get another replacement. I have no idea what could be causing this, but it's annoying, and can't be a good sign.

Tool to keep display OFF!

My phone is always waking up for odd reasons (AVRCP commands, switching in and out of roaming, etc...), and I can't seem to get the darned thing to stay OFF.
Music A2DP streaming is the biggest deal to me, because not only will the device wake up when I press a remote command (on my AVRCP headset), it will also keep the device backlight on indefinitely. This is clearly shortening my battery.
I tried Slide2Unlock, and have it set to shut off the display if no activity for 5 sec., but the problem is that Slide2Unlock appears to not notice when it is woken up, and just sits there without turning the screen back off again! (a simple screen press brings Slide2U back to life, and then it will toggle the screen... but this defeats the purpose!)
There must be SOMETHING I'm missing here... doesn't anyone else have this problem???
I have 2 things for you. The first, is if you're using WM6 that's a known issue and unchecking the today timeout in start-->settings-->today-->items tab should solve most of your problems. The second is a little program that I found (not sure where at , but it might have been on here) called screen off. Install it and then set it to a hardware button and it will allow you to turn just your screen off whenever you don't need it on.
Maybe it depends on the player you're using? With Coreplayer, my phone's screen just flashes on and off quickly when it receives an AVRCP command.
Still doesn't explain the roaming thing though.

Yes, I'm using WM6 on a HTC Titan (Sprint Mogul).
I don't currently timeout to the today screen, but I don't see how that would cause my problem really- I've heard people mention that before, so can anyone explain what difference that would make?
I already have a shortcut to screen toggle (wrote my own MortScript to do it). That's not a problem anyway since every media player can assign a button to toggle the screen- The problem is that it keeps turning the screen back on when a button is pressed no matter how many times I toggle!!
Plastriq, I've heard that coreplayer does that... that's how they deal with this problem. They're the only ones that have addressed it as far as I know, and I'm not about to pay for their app when I already have TCPMP and WMP for free.
I just can't believe that there haven't been more practical ways around this yet!

Couple of issues - HTC Touch Diamond2

I have a couple of issues that needs a help from this group.
1. I have selected to have both Vibrate abd Ring and the vibration is too strong and I would like to make the vibration quiter. Any registry setting for this?
2. When I am not using the phone and sometimes when I switched off the power button after a few seconds a blank light is glowing.
3. Is it possible to reduce the voulme by single bar instead of 3 bars at a time. It's causing a problem in listening to music. songs having too low or too high.really pathetic.. I have installed many voulme related cab files which is causing some other issues.. any good one for HTC touch diamond2?
4. Any good mp3 music player that can also be controlled through remote controller. I am having RC 100 HTC remoted controller to change the song/reduce the volume. Having SP2 player..good one but not able to control it thru' remote.
Is it possible to go to next/previous song by tilting like in sony ericsson.
5. Whenever I am opening some application, it's going to sleep/lock immediately. I don't want it to go to sleep automatically. I want to manually close. Though I have Diamond tweak with Fast Sleep is disabled.

PLease help on the below items.
Atleast for the below one.
I don't want HTC to go sleep immediately. For example, I am refering the notes in MS word in HTC, I need it to open until I close that application. But it going to sleep mode after a few seconds which causing a nonsense. I nees to switch on the phone again, enter the password and select the running pgm again.

[Q] Screen Turns On Randomly

Hi. I'm having an issue with my Verizon S5 where the screen turns on randomly, sometimes a few times a minute, for no apparent reason. Researching the issue, I found a lot of people said the reason they found was that the charge port was bent slightly and after bending it back it fixed the issue. They noticed the screen would behave when it was plugged in because all the connections were forced into their proper places by the charger. However, mine turns on and off regardless of whether or not it is plugged in. I downloaded Wakelock Detector to try to see if there were any apps forcing my screen to wake up but it only listed a couple apps and processes and, combined, they didn't come anywhere near the number of times my screen was woken up. Interestingly, the same day I noticed this problem, my home button also stopped working. It will not turn on the screen when off and it will not bring me to the home screen when the screen is on. I thought maybe it was occasionally functioning, causing my screen to turn on. However, I have never experienced the opposite issue; I have never been using my phone with the screen on and had it suddenly bring me to the home screen. Also, oddly my screen does not have this issue when I am playing music either through the speaker or via bluetooth. If I have music playing, the screen never turns on randomly. If I pause my music, the issue returns and my screen turns on randomly unless I resume my music.
The fact that it doesn't do it while playing music (either over bluetooth or through the speaker) means it must be a software issue rather than a hardware issue. The fact that my home button stopped working at the same time seems to make it seem like a hardware issue but maybe my home button not functioning and my screen turning on and off randomly are both part of the same software issue? I have attached a screenshot of my current version of Android and other details.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Generally, I'd recommend a factory reset just to make sure whether it is or not a software issue.
If the issue is not solved, return the phone.

Solution Found
I was able to fix the problem so I thought I might as well share. I replaced the circuit board that goes under the home button (cost about 10 bucks lol). This is not the home button and cable itself. If you disassemble the S5 to the point where you can see the motherboard, the circuit board at the bottom with the charge port, capacitive buttons, and home button contact is the one I replaced. Hope this helps others with similar issues get working in the right direction. Be very careful disassembling your S5 if you decide to try this route.

Bug or feature?

Hello,
I'm using omnirom on my Nexus 5 (5.1.1 nightlies) for about a month and I found some things where I can't say if its a bug or a feature:
1. I'm using bluetooth in my car to play music from my nexus 5. My bluetooth system has a key to play/pause and skip a track. Everytime when I skip to the next track, the display gets active and stays active for the setted display timeout. I couldn't find any setting where to disable this "feature". Before I was on stock and didn't have that problem, it causes high battery drain.
2. If you're in e.g. Whatsapp and press the power button to get your device into standby, the app remains in background and is still active. I cant explain exactly, normally (on stock) when you get in that situation a message, the normal notification sound would be hearable, but here its only the in app notification sound. So it seems that the app isn't in standby and thinks you're looking at your phone. This happens also in Threema, which is not good because you don't recognize when you get a new message. I hope you understand what I mean.
3. When you're in such a messaging app and you get a message, the notification stays in the notification center until you swipe it away or touch on it, so it does not detect wether being in the app in the correct chat or not, it shows it independently.
Otherwise I have no problems, really nice rom!

S7E software problems or lag?

Anyone else having any glitches, lag, strange behavior, etc. I don't know if it's just me but my s6e+ seemed to run a little smoother on LP than new s7e on MM.
issues I have with mine:
After reboot the keypad for entering pin has input lag and sometimes erases
The notification bar will open blank when I have notification and then close and re open with notifications, sometimes it will open and phone will freeze for 3-4 seconds
If I am listening to music over Bluetooth in my car and I compose a text message and attach a picture, it cuts off my music and I have to press play again.
Hopefully we get another OTA soon that fixes some of this. Anybody else having issues?
keypad lag after reboot might had to do with system still loading; if i immediately enter pin after reboot, it lags like no tomorrow, but if i let it sit for a minute or so, everything is smoother, but still not as smooth as normal
notification bar issue happened to me once, but thats after an app crashed; it went away after i force closed the misbehaving app from usage manager
it also randomly cut off my music, but i even have it happened when my screen is off, but only on wired headset, never on my BT headphone
It doesn't like my left thumbprint only my right even though I've redone it once already.
Sometimes if I am trying to type it randomly goes to the lockscreen and I have to unlock my device again.
I can test the bluetooth MMS issue (if I remember) later.
Also the Do Not Disturb settings do not work whatsoever, I have to manually turn it on and off from the quick settings bar.
I almost wish I'd waited for the G5 to drop this week...
The g5 doesn't really appeal to me, now the m10 is looking nice but I'm overall satisfied for now. I think/hope after the next ota all the bugs are worked out. I really should've held on to s6e+ until note 6 but the sd card and water resistance got me lol
