[Q] Screen just turn off. randomly - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

has anybody have this issue where your screen just randomly turns off?
and you have to hit the power button to turn it off.
i was using the music downloader app and i just touched the screen when it just went black. i had to hit the power button again to turn it back on.
oh and also i had my password set to 2580 just incase the finger print scanner didnt recognize it and it wouldnt take it. i typed it in about 10 times just scanned and changed it over again. just wondering if anybody is having these issues.

No finger scanner problems at all, and no lock pass problems either.
Screen do turn off but u can change that from settings.
Settings>Display>Screen Time out ( i am using 1 min, best for battery saving and dont turn off while usage)

yeah i checked those settings and its on the default 1 minute.
but it seemed strange that i had jsut touched it and bam went black.

There are only tow things i can think of.
1. U have a faulty phone.
2.Us battery is lose (try jerking around ur phone while screen is on, if screen goes blank and phone turns off then u know what the problem is)
if ur facing problem 1 then company warranty is only way, and if problem is number two wither sticking a piece of paper or changeing battery will fix the problem.
i had problem number 2 with my nokia phones quite a lot
One more thing try resetting ur phone to factory default, may be something u installed is causing problem.

I haven't noticed that it has done it. Just that time. But I got worried since its not even 2 days old.

annoying auto dim

does this happen to you?
i was playing on my tablet then the screen turn soooo dark
like as if the bright setting is turn all the way down.
i can hardly see to operate, i press the power button then again to login.
but when i check the setting it appear untouch
even after turning off auto brightness.
Mine kinda does this... mine just goes super dark, but i usually just touch the screen or the power button and it brightens back up, just like a laptop getting ready to go into sleep or hibernate mode.
It happens again after I set timeout tok 30 m3inutes
It could be bad lcd, I could not see a thing.
That would suck if it is a bad LCD, but at least it would be under warranty!
This happened to me, I think it is because I had brightness at maximum... I turned the brightness slightly down and it has happened again. But maybe that's just me?

It has a light sensor and auto-adjust capability. I've notice as I move around with mine or change how room light hits it will darken or brighten. Doesn't bother me enough to go looking for some settings to disable it, but there should be some there.
I have the same problem too... everytime I turn off the screen using the power button then turn on again the screen turn very dark when the setting is set to auto brightness... it is very annoying while doing something on the S and went away from a while then come back to use it the brightness is totally so dim...
I'm sorry to say but you guys have a defective unit. Just switch it in right away.
turn off auto brightness.
I contact newegg yesterday but no reply yet.
edit: i call them via phone got my shipping label.
Turning off auto brightness doesnt help, but tuning down the brightness from max down slightly I havent had the issue.
If it happens again ill have to send this back, I feel bad loosing the official siony screen cover.
Byt loosing $30 is better than five ninty-nine us dollars.

The issue describedhappened to my first one which is why I know it. Just re turn it. Its not normal behavior.
It is the Android problem, not Sony. Unless you change OS....

my xperia x10 2.3.3 fw and before that doesn't bug me this much.
if all 3.2 fw tablet does it then i would blames on 3x
go ahead turn on your auto brightness and browse the net in a well lid room.
I have one that is doing the same thing. Also every now and then the screen shuts off and I cant get it to come back on for awhile unless I hold power for like 30 sec. Is this a defective tablet or honeycomb 3.2? Thanks!
I'm telling you guys, I sell the things andI KNOW the issue they are taking about. We played with the settings all day and it kept happening but the issue NEVER happened to any of the other units. It's most likely a defective unit because as I said, it only happened to the one unit.

i think they are not available in Europe yet - so you should be able to sell the cover easily if you ship internationally

[Q] note 2 major problems

I have had my Verizon Note 2 for about a month now, and about 2 days ago i read that the processor has Vulnerabilities and mailware problems samusing is trying to fix but about a week ago i went to use my quick glance and my direct call and it wasnt working and when someone calls me i put it up to my ear the screen goes black as it should but then its stuck at the black screen i hit all the buttons cant get to the phone call if i wanted to put it on speaker or even just check a txt message i cant do anything until that person hangs up. The only way i am able to check my txt messages and stuff while on the phone is if i dont put it up to my ear.. so i restarted phone as we all would assume this would fix it well it didnt, so then i did a Factory reset thinking that would just put it back to complete stock and fix it well turns out that didnt work. My phone has never been rooted or anything and never will be. Im running Android 4.1.1 If anyone has any idea how i can fix this it would be gladly appreciated i love the motion features. Also i did the Gyroscope calibration and it didn't make any difference, my proximity sensor is on and glowing red just doesnt work like i said.
Thanks, Stephen

That exploit that you are referring to has nothing to do with your issue... And the proximity sensor does not light up as that is the LED notification light. I have this issue from time to time too and it's just that the sensor is not doing it's job properly but if you just simply hit the home button or power button real quick the screen will turn on. Other than that you may want to check some of your settings... Turn off your "motion" settings and see if that takes care of your issue then find out which one is causing the problem...
The quick glance used to work without any problems at all and i liked that, then all of a sudden one day it just decides not to work and it hasn't worked in a week now, i turned my motion off and when im in a phone call it still locked up at the phone screen i cant do anything until they hang up ive gone through the settings multiple times and nothing, i think imma go to verizon today and ***** about it

Ya something does not sound right... Do you have a screen protector on your Note 2 that is covering the sensors?

actually the proximity sensor DOES light up, it's a very faint red light and it's the left one of the two little holes to the _right_ of the phone speaker, the notification LED is on the left of the phone speaker. This light turns on when in a phone call to indicate that the sensor has been activated.

phone unlocks when i put it down :S

hey, i dont know if this is in the right section so if it isnt im sorry, also i am on o2 as i live in the UK but decided to put it in the Verizon section, sorry again
sometimes when i lock my phone and put it down onto my desk it unlocks itself and goes to the home screen, this is worrying because i have a pass lock on it...
i have made sure lock with home button is enabled and it is, motion sensors are off etc so i dont know
any ideas?
If this is what you're experiencing:
1. Phone is awake and screen is on
2. Press power button to turn off the screen and lock the phone
3. Put phone down on table/desk
4. Instantly the phone wakes up and goes straight to the homescreen
Then yep I am experiencing this exact same thing myself. It's not consistent at all, sometimes it goes a full day without happening, but it does happen. Seen it a dozen or so times so far and it's really frustrating. I have no idea what could possibly be causing this. It's almost like a bounce-back wake up where the phone isn't done doing something when I lock it and it goes "no I'm waking back up not finished yet." Because once it wakes up and I re-lock it, it hasn't done it again since. No back to back wake ups.
Wierd. Hopefully more people can post that they too experience this.

yeah thats exactly whats happening, like you say it is inconsistent but is annoying when it happens
This has never happened to me.
I haven't had this happen either. Can you turn off all motion settings and see if it still happens?
I can't definitively say I've had this happen, but there have been several times when I've woken the phone up and thought 'I swear I didn't hit the power button...'

This has happened to me quite a bit. I can go days without seeing it and then some days it happens until I power off the phone for 5 or 10 mins and then boot it back up, once I do that everythings hunkey dorey for at least a day if not more. Its a very odd bug though. Ive experienced it on all the stock and all the AOSP roms so it could just be a hardware issue of some sort. But then powering it off wouldnt help, at least I dont think so......
Anyway, its more annoying than anything but it has gotten me in trouble for dialing people and saying stuff they werent meant to hear, like my fiancée hearing what she was getting for Christmas.....

Double Tabing Issue (Knock on to wake up!)

Hi Friends,
One problem which bother me a lot is knock on to wake up feature on LG V10. When I decided to turn my screen on as phone is on table, I have to use double tabs to wake up my phone and start using it. Sometimes it take 2 or 3 time of double tab screen to wake my phone up. You know, I have to try knock on feature twice or thrice to get in to my phone. This problem 60 % of time and it really annoying me a lot. It is worthwhile to say that knock feature for turning of screen is work nicely and 100 % of time without any lag. Is this a serious problem which I have to worried about?
Thanks guys.
This doesn't happen on my phone. When i tap twice it turns on every time. Maybe you can factory reset, and see if it solves the problem.
It happens to me a lot. It's not NEARLY as sensitive as on the G2/G3/G4. It takes almost 3x as many tries for me to get the Knock On to even work.

I'd estimate it to work on the first try about 70% of the time. Otherwise, I have to try again or a third time sometimes. My girlfriend's G4 has the same issue.

LG G5' s some problems...

1- when I put it in charge in off it turns on and continue charging.
2-light sesnore isn't very good and allways is more then I need.
3-I didint find the smart stay or smart screen in setting and it is very bad when I want to read a book with my phone.
Please say me which of these are common?

smart screen has gone, I emailed lg and they didn't even know what I was talking about.
1. I got the same problem, when chargin the phone turn on after some seconds/minutes, but not a big deal
I have the second problem , but not problem at all , i never liked auto brightness i choose to stay at 35% when gaming 50% max (40-45 usually) you can clearly see in home with this , when i am outside i just check the auto because it can give you more brightness than 100% manuall can , but it is buged it rearly works for me and when it does its for some secs! Also sometimes i touch the fingerprint and it wont even wake up or even when i hit the button it just stucks for some secs and then works good again.
