[Q] am i the only one? - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

am i the only one who experienced too much wake up delay?. i mean it took about 10-15 sec to wake it up. normally, when we press the home key, it'll wake up our ace within 1-2 secs, but in me it took 10 - 15 sec and i need to press the volume just to wake up my ace. i tried to reflash with odin, change my rom into cm 9, but no luck. what can i do to solve this problem?

Does it happens always? If so try setting min. frequency at 245 Mhz... Also governor to smartass v2

yes. it happens every time the screen turn off. i already did that, but nothing changed. i dont know what the problem of m ace

can someone tell me how to fix it?. it's really annoying. i always use my ace to check time, or check if there is any email, message received. but it always took about 10 - 15 secs to wake it up. dunno how did this happen to my ace. all i remember is i removed the sd card, then boom. it start to happen. and it always happen.

what is your internal memory free space and the RAM usage?
I also get the laggy problem when my dolphin browser is opened.
try RAM manager from pstore.

i have 83mb free in internal memory. dunno what is my RAM usage.. BUT, even if it is newly reflashed from odin, it still happens too much delay in wake up. so i try to flash a custom rom, CM 9 by mclaw, wipe the cache, wipe the delvik, restore factory settings, i already did all of them. but still, the the delay is there. 10-15 seconds delay in wake up..

how can i fix this?

i'll try to flash a new kernel.
EDIT: already tried to flash a new kernel. still no luck..

what rom are you using? cm variants have a known issue of having delayed wake up lags, and if you alread had tried flashing over odin try flashing over customized stock rom which are aboundantly found in the development section

maybe your phone using default min. frequency, if yes, change to 245 MHz
but in my case, my min-max freq is default, and it didn't affect my phone's wake up time

My screen off profile in SetCPU is 120Mhz Min and 320 at Max. I never had wake up problems in my phone. My question is, 15 seconds waiting is looong. Do you press just middle (HOME) button and wait for 15 seconds? Because in either case if you were/are on stock ROM flashed via ODIN. That must not be happening on stock.
If you're using CM based ROM, Is everything check in "buttons" section in Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Input Settings?
I'm just checking which buttons you've assigned to wake up your device.

i already tried stock rom from odin, still it has the wake up extreme lag that took 10-15 secs. then i tried to flash custom rom, cm9, cm 7.1, 7.2, stock based rom, still no luck.. i think, it's the hardware of my ace that has problem.

i dont set any buttons to wake up my ace, means, it was using the default. even in stock rom flashed via odin, it still have the extreme lag wake up. i press the home button, the light turn on in the menu and back button (left and right of the home button), and if i just wait, it wont turn the lights on in the screen, sometimes, if i just wait the 15secs, it'll wake up and imediately sleep again bout less than 1 second. that's why i need to press the volume to wake it up

can someone know how to fix it?

Try to set Minimum Clock Frequency to 245 or flash Adrenaline Boost v2 then if you feel that you are running low on memory just give your Ace a Boost.

Sounds weird, but you mentioned earlier that you removed your SD card without unmounting? Try formatting the card and insert it when the phone is off OR erase it when in CWM recovery. Never know this might just work out. If it doesn't use Kies to update your phone to stock.(Tedious process I know). Hope it helps.

I'm surprised nobody thought of this as a hardware problem.
Do you still have a warranty?

my warranty is already void/expired. i really think that this is a hardware problem. because, i already tried what they said.. but nothing happens. still the same. i already tried to reflash again via odin twice. still got the extreme wake up delay. tried to flash a custom rom based on stock, still no luck, tried to flash a cm rom (7.1, 7.2, 9) still the same. tried to set the minimum frequency to 245, still the same. and i think, im the only one experiencing the 15 second wake up delay. that's why i think, it's the hardware that has the problem.

[Q] Screen won't wakeup after the sleep

Hi everyone, i've been using DJ_Steve 1.9.1 before and after i changed my internal memory card to a Class 10. Everything works great before i changed the memory, no random reboots, no hangs. But now after i replaced the memory, it's just sometimes (not all the time), my streak won't wake after the screen timeout. So when i press the power button to wake my streak, the screen would just still dead. No response. Press it multiple times still no response. Long-pressing the power button also doesn't restart the device (usually it is). And the solution i have so far is pull the battery and turn it on again.
I have tried to flash my rom and recovery back to stock 360 and no same problem, everything just fine, so i think this is not a hardware failure, thats why i'm sure i won't have the sleep problem again after i flash back again to 1.9.1. But after a factory reset and a bit of restoring apps, i left my streak and there we go again. It won't wake anymore..
If maybe anybody here have a solution or some mind on it, you're greatly appreciated!

I have read many posts recommending to install SetCPU (free if you search for it on XDA) and set the minimum speed to one setting higher than the default. Try it and post your results for others.

I do install a SetCPU already, and let the Scaling goes default with "smartass" from 1.9.1.
Currently the minimum speed is set 245760. And now I'm setting it to one-step higher which is 576000 and will see how it will work over the time.
Really thank you for this useful information, hope this will solve my "sleep" problem
Unfortunately, just now, my Streak is not responding to the power button while it's asleep with the setting of SetCPU to minimum speed of 576000 with Smartass Governer.
One thing I realized, the CPU Master Free which pre-installed with 1.9.1 is FC everytime I try to open it. Does this have something to do with my Streak not waking up?

Hmmm, if it's FC then why DJ Steve include it in his ROM? >.<
Finally I uninstalled my SetCPU, and let's see if it solve my problem or not... *fingercrossed*
When there is setCpu installed with smartass governer and min speed of 576mhz, my streak randomly 'dead' when it's asleep.
Yesterday, i uninstalled setCpu, my Streak still 'dead'..
Out of my curiousity, tried to update the FC Cpu Master Free to last 1.9 edition from Market and it's working now. And now i'm trying my luck with the Cpu Master Free. If this time my Streak still 'dead', i really dont know what to do @[email protected]

[Q] Screen won't sleep sometimes (CleanROM 2.9.5)

My screen occasionally will not sleep. It does not even Dim.
I don't have any background apps installed like setcpu, oc etc.
Just straight apps. Calculator, weather bug (with backgroud updates turned off), etc.
It does not happen all the time. Just occassionally.
Sometimes even after a reboot it will just stay on and not sleep.
Some times just hitting the power button to force sleep fixes it. I wake it and then it goes to sleep fine.
I posted this problem in CleanROM thread and Scott (the CleanROM author) said he occasionally sees it to and does not know the cause.
I was curious if this occurred in other ROMs and if anyone might know the cause.
I'm running the Kernel that came with Clean ROM 2.9.5 by mwalt2 (with the DIM buttons and always on until cleared notification LED).
I also tried restoring CleanROM 2.5 and it did it too (I think it uses the same kernel).
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Try reflashing the rom after doing a full wipe, and don't try to restore anything. I would also maybe try out a different kernel and see if that doesn't fix the issue.

I never restore anything after a wipe. Defeats the purpose of a "wipe"
I think it might be the Kernel.
People are to quick to say, I have no idea, so wipe it.
If I had to do that every time someone at work had a computer problem I'd be fired.

[Q] Strange touchscreen issue

I recently got a strange touchscreen issue.
When the device comes out of deep sleep (turn on the screen with power button) my touchscreen behaves weird. Normally, when I touch the unlock slider, it follows my finger. But not now....it's like long press is not recognized. I am able to unlock the screen by wiping my finger to unlock. But the slider is not following my finger. The strange thing is, after about 10 seconds, the issue is gone, and the slider follows my finger....
Also long press on the homescreen is not working during the first 10 seconds.
What I tried to solve:
I completely wiped the phone and reinstalled .42 firmware. Then updated tot ICS using Sony Update Service and also completely wiped my phone. The problem still there...then I flashed a custom ROM (shardur_seth spacious...and also his firmware) but the problem stille there.
Anyone else experienced this? Or any solutions I could try? It was there suddenly....could it be a hardware problem? But why is it gone after 10 seconds?
Thnx for your help
it happens for me sometimes, but most of the time when someone calling me i cannot at slide to answer. what im doing is i just press power button ones and it will silence and press the home key and it will work the slide key...
any solution for this also?

Sounds like your phone is just sluggish, you're probably running too much in the background/have too much installed on the phone and it takes a while for the RAM to optimally load everything you need again after having cleared some of it whilst the phone was in sleep mode.

Yes, that's exactly the problem.....I also have the problem that I cannot longpress the home screen...U have the same issue? After 10 seconds or after tapping the screen multiple times, the issue is gone until the phone goes to sleep.
I too had this issue and narrowed it down to the sluggishness due to deep sleep.
What I did was,
1) Flash nightelf kernel
2) Installed Set CPU
3) Make profiles for Screen Off
4) Whenever I have the governor as "performance" I never had the issue
5) After lot of permutation combination, I fixed a screen off profile as 460max and 134 Min with conservative as governor.
6) Also added a new profile for "In Call" with "performance" governor.
The problem was gone. Yes, it happens once in a while but much better than the situation before.

Tried using your settings..first I had governor set to performance...but the problem still persists. Wheneven I turn on the screen I have the issue. It is possible to unlock the screen if I wipe fast enough....but it really is strange...why is the issue gone after a couple of wipes or some touchscreen pressess..
Could it be a hardware error....a sensor not getting ready or something? But why is the problem gone when the screen is on for a while.....

me also having same problem and touch is awesome but when the lock is open then this problem will occur and it will open after 2 to 3 attempts..
what's this i think this is not an hardware problem this is only the software ??//??
i have the same problem too. i think there is a problem with cpu.
I had these sometimes with certain combinations of kernel and ROM. Actually it's gone... (Alliance V1/JJs Hybrid ROM 3.1)
I suppose it's a combination of hardware and software configuration...
Anyone tried to higher the minimum CPU speed?

i tried. also i tried to set governor to different versions. and i tried nightelf rc5 kernel. nothing changed. problem still there.
today i realized that's not about only touchscreen. sometimes phone freezing.
problem with neo (mt15i) touch screen
use alliance night-elf v1.1 kernel.I had this problem but when I flash this kernel to my neo my touch screen works good same as the first day...
Well....for me suddenly the problem is solved!!!!
I'm very glad that my display is working again! It has been for about 3 months since I was facing the problem.
Unfortunately I do not have a clear solution to this, but I can explain what I did that day, and hopefully the solution is in there. But I can not garantee it.
What I did that day
1. I tried to get beats audio working, so I had installed a numerous of Beats libs. (see xda-developers for some of those libs). The last one I tried was Walkman port by ThilinaC. Not sure how this can be related to the display issue
2. I flashed a new rom. But this time I formatted /system and /data in CWM. Normally I just did a factory reset and installed the new rom. (but guess factory reset also formats /system and /data)
Still....guess this has nothing to do with the display
3. I did a offline charge. When my phone was empty I wanted to charge it fast. So I switched off my phone, and then connected the charger to offline charge the phone.
Really not sure how the above points could be a solution to de display failure, but guess if it was the digitizer that was the problem, it's strange that it is fixed out of knowhere....but the above actions are what I did that day....so maybe it's helpful and is the solution in there...maybe.
I'm glad the problem is gone
Yes, I am facing this exact problem, I am going to take my mobile to the service center !!!.

Strange bug : impossible to wake the phone when it's locked

Hi!
I'm using a recent CM9 nightly with default kernel.
I would like to have your opinion : about 3/4 a week my SGS3 is "stuck" when it's locked : impossible to wake up using home or power button, the screen stays black.
The weird thing is that when it happens, the phone is not frozen : I can still hear music on the headphones and control volume using Up/Down buttons.
Sometimes I let it stuck and receive a notification some minutes later and the phone magically can be unlocked again, screen wakes when I push Home button.
Very weird and annoying when that happens.
My question is : what do you think it could be? An app? How can I debug this and know what prevents the screen to wake up when that happens?
Thanks.

Thanks, but is that the kind of easy answer you all tell when you don't know the exact answer?
When I installed CM9 a week ago, I did do a full wipe...
I think that next time it happens, I will try to connect my SGS3 on USB and do a adb logcat, maybe I'll find useful information.

Having a similar problem to yourself. Installed CM9 rom had a play and then went back to omegaV9 performing a full wipe using the instructions on this site before reflashing.
Since then when my phone is locked screen off then i unlock either via swipe or using security code (digits ) it looks like the phone unlocks but sort of does a warm boot with black screen for a few seconds with the two buttons down the bottom light up.
When it starts it looks like all the apps have stopped and are restarting again.
I re flashed again omega 9 thought i had it sorted but it started playing up again this evening.
If anyone has any ideas please post..
Hi, I'm a newbie here. I also exprience this problem with my samsung GT-i9300. I hoping to see a fix with this problem.
This forum has been so helpful to new android users. Thank you guys.

Screen Off Requires Power Button To Turn On Issue?

Hi guys,
Trying to work out if my phone is faulty or not.
When I turn the screen off, sometimes when I press the middle button to turn the screen back on, it won't turn on. The only way to turn it back on again is if I hold the power button for about 5-6 seconds to restart the phone again.
Does anyone know why? Or any solutions to this?
Happens twice on average a day, it's annoying having to restart the phone!
I think your getting SOD (sleep of death).
try using dorimanX kernel on default settings then see what happens.
Sent from my Galaxy SII
I will try it and see.
If it doesn't fix it, does it mean it's the phone?
Have you overclocked, underclocked, overvolted, undervolted, flashed anything in a bad order, flashed anything at all, changed GPU speeds, turned BLN on? If you answered yes to any of them I suggest you do a reset, reformat, flash a Samsung stock ROM, don't play with any apps that change the default CPU/GPU etc settings and see what happens before you buy a new phone.

The only thing I did was flash Resurrection Remix ROM. Everything else that's there I haven't touched.
I'll format to stock and see if it does it.
