Screen On/Off Lag Fix?? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, i noticed when pressing the power button to turn the LCD on, it turns on a second or two after being pressed. Is there any way to make it turn on instantly when you press the power button? Its kind of annoying to me since im used to all my other phones turning on right away when being pressed.

It's probably due to the fact that your phone is exiting deep sleep.

@op's post i have noticed it too, with s-voice disabled on double pressing the home key ; @demonor, that is true but lighting up the screen using the home is faster than the power key even if it isn't already in deep sleep.
just try doing it over and over again, lighting the screen up is instantaneous as compared to about almost a second after when you use the power button to light the screen up.

same here... it's really annoying... thought i'm the only one..

I don't have this exact problem but sometimes I have to press power button 2-3 times to wake it up.... kind of annoying
hmmmmm....I've been having problems turning my on, but I thought it was isolated to occurring only when it was docked.
I'll have to check this out. I've not tried the charging option. The only way I've been able to get my on was pressing volume+power buttons.
( you are talking wake up from sleep or wake up from being powered down?

I saw this happen only when the battery in the dock got < 20% and after the prime had been asleep for several minutes. Hitting the power button does nothing until I removed the dock. Then a long press on the power button wakes it up (not a reboot).
Maybe they didn't optimize the charging from dock --> tab correctly?

power button behavior, screen on/off

Would it be possible, and has anyone made, a mod to require a double press or long press of the power button for screen on? I have had my 3d since launch day and I finally can't take it anymore, nothing is more irritating than pulling my phone out of my pocket and the screen is already on and I have no battery left.
Screen time out? Never had that issue... Volume rocker wake? Idk

With my previous "HTC Desire" I was able to edit the file "bravo-keypad.kl" so that the power button does not turn on the screen ... check out this post if you want to try.
Greetings.

Hello,
you can try this mod

I use the fully LeeDroid ROM and there you can set the volume buttons or the camera button for unlock the screen. So you won't have your problem with the power button any more

Power button (short press) goes to lock screen instead of turning screen off

Anyone else have this issue? When I short press the power button to turn off the screen, it sometimes looks like it's going to turn the screen off then turns back on to the lock screen.
This has caused me all kinds of pocket dialing / pocket shortcut making / pocket emailling issues.
I THINK this issue might be caused by the Screebl app (app that keeps screen on when being held) since I can't replicate it with it off. I really would like to use it though because it's a really useful app. Any suggestions?
I can't half press my power button. It just turns off when I apply little pressure
Must be an isolated issue

It's not a half press. It's a short press (vs long press - which would bring up the power menu to shut down, restart, etc). It turns the screen off, then it blinks back on to the lock screen, but seemingly only when Screebl is enabled. Might just have to drop that app, but I'd rather not because it's damn useful.

Your last paragraph seems as if you've already isolated the problem. Unfortunately, I think you know your only choice. I'd consider contacting the creator of the app.

If i do a very quick short press with netflix open it brings me to the lock screen. no big deal
Hey, I just wanted to confirm that this is not just isolated to your phone. I have had this issue with two phones so far, a Samsung Vibrant and an HTC One S. I've been looking for an answer as well, but so far turning off Screebl has been the only solution. Sucks because I love Screebl.

[Q] screen turn on issue

Sometimes, when I press power button to turn on my screen, just capacitive buttons turn on, but the screen doesn't. And I do it few times again after it, still nothing, just buttons turn on and off. Only solution is to remove the battery and restart phone that way, which is quite annoying if happens often.. Any solution to this? Thank you.
It happens on my HD2 too. It's related to Wi-Fi - turn it off before pressing power button.

Any other solution? Because turning wifi off every time when I turn off do screen would be a big job- especially if I use phone for chatting and srceen is on-off like every 30 seconds, who would turn wifi on-off so many times...

Weird screen bug/defect?

Hello everyone I'm experiencing a very strange issue. Whenever I press towards the top center of the screen sometimes my screen goes black as if I hit the power key and then when I press the home button it doesn't turn back on usually I have to press the power button once then one more time to get the screen to get back on. You have to squeeze or press down the screen firmly a little hard I'll be asleep its not normal to do that but regardless doing that makes my phone turn off and then not turn back on until I press the power key twice. The screen appears to be off and all black but the soft keys vibrate as if thescreen was on and use. Does anyone else have this type of problem when pressing down on the screen? Or has anyone else experienced this some other way and has some type of solution or should I exchange?

I don't have that issue I, only have like many users that little lag when waking the screen. The problem your describing sounds very abnormal. I would def. Check out an exchange option if you have it bro.
