Hey, if you reinstalled the phone it actually suggests it's a hardware
issue... I can't view the video since it's private, but I've not heard
anyone else mention that.

There is one bug that I remember from before, but we've not seen it in a
long time - bug #1408263 - that could in theory explain your issues.

If you have adb access to the device, you can use (on your pc):

$ phablet-config edges-intro --disable

If that doesn't work for some reason, the same can be achieved by
editing this file on the phone:

/var/lib/AccountsService/users/phablet

Edit the line that says "demo-edges=true" to say "demo-edges=false" and
restart the phone.

Ultimately flashing Android could get you a confirmation if the hardware
is still ok. You can also edit the width of the edge detection area (see
ubuntu-phone ML thread [1] for pointers).

Title:
  OTA 8.5 Nexus 4 screen gestures from the left side aren't working

Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  on OTA-8.5 my Nexus 4 isn't usable any more. The launcher can't be
  shown, the gestures from the left side won't work any longer. I
  completely reinstalled the phone and now it's the situation, that it
  stays on the info-screen how to use the phone: "Please swipe from the
  left": so i can't unblock the phone. Also the keyboard works
  incorrectly. Typing the password for Wifi network during setup,
  instead the letter a and the shift are typed letter s or y (german
  keyboard). Here's a little video showing the bug's work
