Does your phone instantly wakeup when you press the Home or Power button?
I find that mine takes 1.5 seconds to wake up most of the time, and its frustrating - reminds me of my HD2 with android on it.
When the phone is plugged into the mains, the wakeup time is instant.
My friend's Galaxy S II wakes up instantly all the time (even without mains connection).
mine too,
did u find a solution?
Unfortunately not. I'm dying for one as well. I have even tried setting the CPU to 1.2Ghz all the time using SetCPU, but it still has that annoying 1-2 second delay.
Anyone else experiencing a similar problem? If yes, do you have the Android OS battery eating bug as well? I do...
I have the same problem. However, mine only started after I updated to the latest firmware. Before it was instant on, now there is a noticeable lag.
+1 Also have this lag. Hopefully it can be fixed! Kernel issue?
Last night I was experiencing lag, this morning however it wakes up instantly.All I did between then and now was switch the phone off overnight and use Titanium Backup to clean up the the Dalvik cache. Not sure if either of those things made the difference but something certainly has.

Am I the only one experiencing an overly sensitive Sense UI? Perhaps I'm missing a setting. I have looked all through /etc and can't find any way to adjust the sensitivity.
Anyone have a solution?
Touchscreen Spaz-out
I will say: occasionally my touch screen will just go bat-**** crazy, registering even the slightest movements as "clicks". The phone is completely unusable; god help you should you be in the lock screen.
Now, after observing this for a couple of days I have a hare-brained theory: it's related to how hot the device is. I've noticed that it happens after extended periods of use, or when it's plugged into the wall charger. Just unplugging it grants a short reprieve, and a refractory "cool down" period generally fixes it. Also it'll work sorta if you press down on the screen like you're trying to kill your phone.
Can anyone else confirm this?
I was getting a lot of the jitteryness and screen lockups before I loaded MR2, everything seems pretty fine now. I had more problems with my wife's myTouch than the eris for once last week.
I do not have any issues like this (I do have all the updates though)

For the past few weeks, my screen has been turning on Randomly, and then staying on until I shut it off. This happens sometimes when I'm unplugged, but more often when I'm plugged in. When the screen is on, I also find that the screen will dim after a few seconds (my timeout period) and then brighten back up again.
The up time is 13 hours on it right now, and the awake time is around 8 and a half hours, so I'm unsure if this could be considered a wakelock issue, although it has a lot of similarity's.
I know it must be one of my apps's doing it, but I'm not sure where to start to find out which one is doing it. I'm using Synergy Rom R318. I would consider just uninstalling each app until I found the culprit, but the screen on issue happens randomly, and it could go 15 or 20 without actually turning on.

Are you using an Evo 4G or an Evo 3D? I know this is the Evo 3D section, but I ask because I noticed that on my 4G right after I got even before installing any apps. It would only happen when it was charging but I ignored it assuming it did that when the battery went to 50%/75%/100%. After getting my Evo 3D, I saw that I no longer had this issue. If it is because of the battery charge levels, I'm sure you can flash a mod to disable it.
Shouldn’t you be able to use an app like Watchdog Task Manager by Zomut to track the app down?

I'm gonna run logcat and see what pops up.
This happened to me on my Evo 3D as well. It was happening using SteelROM ROM. It was odd because it was on the desk, disconnected, and it'd light up and, if I didn't touch it, dim down and then brighten up again, and would not shut off until I clicked the power button to "lock" it.
After I flashed ShooterRewind RLS3, I haven't had this issue again. I don't know if it is ROM related, or something else that was replaced with ShooterRewind.
Just something to consider, though I'm no expert. Also, each ROM comes with its own set of apps, and with some other apps removed. So it could have been one of the apps that was on SteelROM but not on ShooterRewind. I am using RCMIX 3.0 beta kernel, if that makes any difference.
Searched Q&A and havent seen any other complaints to match my own.
My sgh-i777 takes about 2 seconds to wake from sleep when I hit the power button. This is only when on battery power. Maybe not a full 2 secs, but noticeable lag anyway (the only noticeable lag btw). It wakes up immediately when plugged in to AC power. I noticed the issue both on stock and CM7(which is freaking awesome) .
So here is my Q:
Is this normal wake behavior for the SGS2? Just got it today and wondering if maybe it is a hardware issue.
PS: I know I need to update my sig now... Dell Streak 5 was an awesome form factor, but holy **** I love this new processor! (But thumbs cramping a bit from the small screen, LOL)
I seem to have a lag too. I had it before root while on stock and i still have it on cm7

Fundamentally takes at least 650msec to wake up from deep suspend - add to that other wakeup processing and you get about a second.
Nothing you can really do about it - most of it is spent waiting for the modem to wake up.
The lag is getting me greif from iphail owners.... They're like my [stupid retarded lame piece of ****] Iphone doesn't lag.

Latest CM7 nightly (10) has LED notifications which uses wake_lock to prevent deep suspend. -guess I need to get a 2nd battery
Going to try it out. A bit disappointing that the most advanced phone on the market has this noticeable lag when waking. I have never experienced this on any other phone... I tend to accidently double hit the power button just to have it wake a moment later followed immediately by the electron beam CRT power off animation!
What really grinds my gears is that this wake lag NEVER happens when plugged in to the charger.

That's because charging holds a permanent wakelock.
Sometimes when I press the power button to unlock the phone, the lock screen pops up instantly, but other times it can take 1-2 seconds for it to pop up.
Does anyone else get this? Does anyone know what causes it? It's a minor irritation, but it's the only flaw I have with this phone so it would be nice if there was a way to fix it.
Thanks.
This also irritates me extremely much!
Quite often I'm unsure if I clicked the powerbutton "enough", so I click again. Then what happens is that the screen turns on and then back off again for me to click a 3rd time.
At least it's not just me then! Hopefully it will be fixed via a software update at some point.
This is well known it occurs when the CPU enters deep sleep. The same thing occured on the S2. From what I have gathered it is the way Samsung Design there CPU's. It was never fixed really on the S2 there was workarounds but no definite fix.
Thanks

Thanks for the info! I won't hold out on a fix then, but it's not the end of the world. :laugh:
yep i have noticed that too.
when you use home menu to turn on screen the delay is slight.
but when you use the power button to turn on the screen the delay is a bit longer compared to using homescreen.
btw, i turned off svoice for home button.
"It is a feature!"
Seriously, it is normal because the phone throttles down its monster quad-core. Trust me guys, you do not want QC at full speed all the time
Pretty sure it is just the samsung rom. same thing with stock samsung roms on my old galaxy s, flash cm9 or aokp and it fixed it.
Flashing those 2 on my device stops the delay and it is almost instantaneous, try jellybean and it IS instantaneous, can't wait for a proper port of that in a few months time... by then I should be sick of samsungs rom and looking for a change anyway. The only problem is that samsung actually did an awesome job this time and i prefer it over stock android. Just the subtle things such as being able to pull down my notification bar in fullscreen games and all the motion control things Its a hard one for me to choose what i want
I have run into these issues several times. They seem to be related, but I can't say for sure.
Every now and then while I'm actively using the phone, 1/2 the screen will go away and the phone will be unresponsive. If I shut off the screen, then turn it back on, it usually clears up. Sometimes the screen won't come back on. It stays off no matter what buttons I press. So I put it on the charger, that triggers the screen turning on and everything is back to normal (the battery is always over 50% or more at this point). Yesterday this got to a point of happening several times in 1/2 hour, so I ended up rebooting to see if it would clear it up. This issue did not come back since then.
On a similar note, I was playing a game this morning in a dark room with the brightness turned all the way down. I was being very active in interacting with the screen. Every now and then the screen would go black, except for the notification bar. I could still see that (time and statuses of things running). The screen would not respond to any touches, so I would shut the screen off and turn it back on and all would be good. This happened 2-3 times over a 45 min period. I play this game quite often, but not usually in the dark and often not as actively as I was doing. My resolution is set in the middle (FHQ+ I think it's called).
Has anyone else run into anything like this?
This S9+ snapdragon through Verizon just seems to be plagued with so many minor issues. I've never had a new phone with this many problems.

As a followup, I think I have found the problem. It seems to be with a product called Game Tuner. It can black out the screen while leaving the app running in the background. I think it is buggy. Doesn't seem to be a way to shut it off though.

I was able to uninstall, then install an older version of Game Tuner and the problem that was easiest to reproduce was fixed. Hopefully this will prevent the weird 1/2 screen thing as well.
