Back gesture problem

Andrey_zxc — Fri, 08 Aug 2025 09:30:34 GMT

When using the "Back" gesture, if the gesture is not strictly perpendicular to the edge of the phone, it causes false scroll events, such as flipping through content or scrolling the page. How can I fix this? I have already tried changing all the settings related to gestures or screen sensitivity, but it does not resolve the issue. The problem is reproduced even without the protective glass and case.

I enjoy using gestures, but this behavior is very annoying and detracts from the overall user experience.

Go to settings/apps/One UI Home/storage and then clear the cache. If that does work, then clear the system cache by wiping the cache partition.

Power off device, then power it back on holding both the side (power) and the up volume buttons at the same time until seeing the recovery screen.

Using the volume buttons, move the highlight to "Wipe cache partition", then press the side button. Use the volume again to choose "yes" and press the side button. It will default back to the top to "Reboot system now" and jsut simply press the side button again. See if that helps.

Have you tried using One Hand Operation+? It is a good lock module that allows for fine tuning and customization of swipe gestures.

I tried clearing the cache as you suggested. Unfortunately, the problem still occurs

I tried using One Hand Operation + and the annoying scrolling and panning when performing the Back gesture is gone! Thank you so much!
