Hello, before ICS I was using an app (tap tap tap https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.maicas.android.wsleep&feature=search_result)
to turn off screen by pressing a widget instead of pressing the power button, thereby I avoid to be pressing the annoying button
It worked perfectly, but after flashing ICS it isnt working good, when I try to turn off screen, it does it during half a second but then It go back on in pattern lockscreen. If I dont touch the screen it goes off again after a few seconds
Any idea please? thanks a lot
Maybe the app just doesn't work on ICS? A lot don't yet
Have you noticed that this application has been updated 1 year ago??
Try " screen off and lock "

Is anyone else having issues with the tablet seizing up on the lockscreen?
I have the tab from I/O running 3.1 rooted. Occasionally when waking the tab from sleep the screen is completely unresponsive. Sometimes pressing the power button a few times or rotating will work but a lot of the time I have to hold the power button down and do a power cycle.
Has anyone else run in to this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it?
I've had the same issue twice today. I was in Google Maps and then it wouldn't do anything. I had to hold the power button to have it restart. Then a few minutes latter the screen wouldn't respond to anything. I have the Google I/O Tab.
my dad just got a galaxy tab and is having this problem. Did anyone find a solution?
Blame Google they released honeycomb in a rush.

It is set to never sleep.
I used to have that issue with stock ROM a few times in the past. The way I found to 'fix' it was to press the power button then wait 5-10s without touching screen, then trying to unlock it. I hope it works for you.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
When I unlock my phone (by pressing power or home button) first I can see my home screen before the lock screen. Is this normal or is there a way to solve this problem?. My phone is rooted.
This should only happen the first time after boot. It shouldn't happen on the stock lockscreen. If you're using widgetlocker or jkay lockscreen, maybe you're using a governor that responds slower waking from sleep?

No. I haven't installed any lock screen and I'm using stock lock screen. It always like this. Not just after reboot. When I press home button or power button to unlock the phone first I can see home screen (or the screen before I lock the phone) and then suddenly change to lock screen.
I just got a Galaxy Note and have been having a problem with the home button that I would be grateful for help on.
When I undock the phone, the home button starts acting weirdly. Instead of taking me to my home screen, it takes me to the alarm clock dock page. The home button becomes pretty much useless.
Has anyone else had this problem. Is there a solution? I would hate to return the phone for what seems like a straightforward user interface issue.
back key does this to me if I clear processes....takes me to internet.phone...sms....lmao.....just a small bug to deal worth for a awesome bro my friend....make sure all caches are cleared and processes every so often......is your home key doing what sounds lik my back key does?

Yeah, you just have to back out until you get the real home screen. Then it works.

Hi all,
I'm not too sure if anyone else has ever experienced this but it is starting to annoy me.
When my screen dims after 1 minute and goes to the lock screen I'm able to press the 'home' button and the unlock screen appears but I'm not able to do anything.
Its almost as if my devices jams and I have to press buttons to get it to come back.
I've reinstalled my device and this doesn't happen.
This happens during a call when the screen dims when its near my ear and I take my phone away from my ear the screen doesn't come on and it jams
Please - your help will be greatly appreciated

I wish that was the issue.
My smartstay is on.
When the device's screen turns off the 2 issues happen:-
1. You press the home button to turn the screen on and the phone goes into the pattern lock screen - when i try do my pattern it doesn't pick anything up almost as if the screen has frozen and I have to wait 1 minute for the screen to go off and do the same process and hope it works.
2. I'm in a call and the screen is supposed to light up after removing it from my hear however it stays black. I have to lay the phone down, wait 1 minute and press the home button and hopefully the screen comes up and hopefully it isn't jammed
try this see if it works https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobint.locker
Hey Aimara,
It didn't work.. It almost seems like the phone jams i.e. there is no RAM left or something
Check your running apps, and could be too many apps running on background using up ram, try to freeze some unwanted apps
I have no issues unlocking my stock Sprint GS3 as you describe. Like some other have mentioned, maybe free up some internal RAM by moving some apps or data to SD storage?
I think it might be caused by CPU tuner and the governors? I noticed when my battery was low it would get stuck on the unlock screen.
Hopefully with my changes it works

Hi,
I have Xperia Acro S for a week now.
The mobile is generally great.
I just have some symptom which makes me a bit worried.
The story is like this; the phone is locked, I press the power button to open the screen.... normally it works as it should be.... but some times the screen just shows a fade light and nothing appears on the screen except this fade light. I press the power button again, the fade light disappears, then I press the power button again, the screen opens normally... it works fine after then.
Did it happen to anyone? is there a fix?
Thanks alot,
Gano
I mean it doesnt wake up ... just fade light.... but it works after then with the 2nd trial.
sorry for posting several times... just for clarification .... it is like waking up the phone from the standby mode... the backlight works as well as the buttons (settings, home, back) light up.... i push the power button again... the lights disappear and the phone goes to standby mode again... i press the power button once again... the screen responds normally.
Thanks,
any idea ?
Im also experiencing the same issue recently. Ever since the latest update. 2.45.
I think that the homescreen app crashes resulting in that.
So far i havent found any solution yet.
It occurs occasionally to me. Probably once a day.

Same here, it's like the phone is turned off. It wont react for about 30 seconds. If I have a notification, the light will blink and the screen wont turn on, so I know the phone is "working". It's been like this since the last update, never had this before.

Hmm.. Looks like it is a global issue.. Hope it will get solved in the next update..
Thanks alot

I have seen this too occasionally, I think it's usually when I press the power button to sleep phone while an app (browser, facebook, etc) was trying to load data from net.Then when I immediately press again to wake it, the screen does not respond until another try.
Not sure is this bug of latest firmware as I had not spent much time on the old one. But the new firmware definitely heats up more and often even if just doing simple browsing more than old one. Battery seems not so good also. Hope this gets fixed soon.
