Hey guys!
My new S3 ( bought 30 may ),I noticed a few days ago when it is in standby mode, the screen lights up for 10 sec, then goes off again.
This happen nearly every 3/4 times then it stops.
This is annoying when i'm sleeping, sometimes it wakes me up
Also clearing all apps and RAM does NOT work.
Also restarting the phone is only a temp. fix.
Anyone having the same problem or knows how to fix it, please share it with me
Thanks for reading!

I have my lumia 800 for a week, and now its happening something strange.. When i'm in a call for some time, and i want to end it the phone doesn't let me. Its still responsive, i can go to the start screen, etc.. but the phone call remains on top with the message "ENDING". After a couple of minutes the phone freezs completely and reboot.
Someone had the same problem??
It's not happening always, but it's frustrating... I was having such a pleasant use and then this happens.. and i'm becoming a little sad and worried.
I dont's know if its a problem of hardware, it seems software because doesn't occur always.
Thoughts?

Yes, I also had some similar kind of problems today, i could not answer the call, after they called me about 5 times i could, but then could only speak a few words before the call stopped. Also i saw the call was still running after the caller had hung up. I wanted to retart the phone, but it would not start up again, then i took it loose from the charger , and it beeped and after a while it started up again by itself.After that it worked oke again.
I think they have to look seriously at the software, there is something wrong here i believe.
I've also had this problem of calls not ending on occasion. It seems inconsistent so far though. I'd be interested to hear if this seems to be affecting everyone or if it's only a small number of handsets.
I have the same prb. The screen goes blank and cant end calls. Has to force restart

For all WP7 devices the screen automatically goes blank when you are on a call and the proximity / light sensor detects your head up to the phone. However, if the screen stays off when you move your head away from the phone it means your proximity sensor (or software related to it) is faulty as it still thinks you have the phone to your head.
This happened to my HD7 after a nasty drop on a tiled floor the other day; the sensor was dislodged and permanently was set to the "on" position. I could only end a call by pulling out the battery, unless the other party hung up first. And every time my alarm went off in the morning the screen would remain dark and I would have to press the power button to get at the snooze button (this is because the sensor is telling WP7 that the phone is in a pocket or somesuch, and not to turn on the screen as the alarm could be accidently disabled or snoozed).
I fixed it by dismantling the HD7, resettling the sensors and blowing out as much dust as I could. Has been working fine since! I wouldn't recommend doing the same for your Lumia 800 though...
I dont think it is a proximity sensor issue. In doing tests, the sensor works perfectly for calls if I only have the screen off for a short period of time. If I hold the device up to my face for say 30 seconds, then the device usually freezes up and the screen goes blank, not allowing me to end a call. This makes me believe that it is a software issue that, hopefully, nokia can sort out.
Well i have been quiet on this topic as i wanted to see if the update fixed this problem BUT NO.
Today i made a call and it didnt ring but said connected i then pressed end and nothing it didnt respond infact none of the keys did anything my lumia just froze.
I couldnt even turn it off so i took the sim out and nothing still conected i just had a phone that was frozen with no way out .. so i had a usless lumia all day at work untill the battery died..I HAD NO PHONE ALL DAY !!!
I just hope it was not connected properly or my bill will be huge from t-mobile ..
This has happened a few times befor the update and always always when the signal is quite low it seems ..
But its a joke when im stuck with a usless phone all day ..
NOKIA SORT THIS OUT ITS NOT ACCEPTABLE
Hopefully this is a software issue and we haven't all received a bad batch of lumias with wonky proximity sensors.
Is there absolutely no way of reseting / rebooting the Lumia? you just have to wait for the battery to die??! That seems ludicrous!
i face the same problem many time i reset the phone by pressing power key long.
i find if i was in 3G network this problem some times happen ,so i switch off 3G and now it more than 3 days it never happen
Well to answer that question ...no its happened nine times last week, 3 of those 9 the phone is usless and you have to wait for the battery to die..maybe that's why Nokia gave us a short battery life haha, the other 6 times after about 7 min you can turn it off to reboot and the rest of the phone is responsive .. So 30% of the time when it happens U have no phone :[ even a long press of the power button does nothing
Same problem here... You can restart the phone btw: Hold power button for 10 sec, then release the power button and press it again...
This is a big problem for me, hope a fix comes in fast...
Thanks,
Samo
Im having the same issues here. Other than this its a great phone. Hopefully get it sorted soon.
same problem here, although never had to wait for battery to die.
long hold of power (10sec+) usually reboots the phone.
I keep noticing the problem when changing locations (inside/outside buildings) which is usually connected to switching to 3g - if it happens during a call I am unable to end it with screen being responsive and phone saying that it is ending call (for 30 seconds and more)
contacted Nokia regarding this problem.. they told me to reset my handset.. this is the only option they have... DUMB
same problem here... did someone find any solution?
nopes........

You can hold the power button for 10 seconds, this will trigger a reboot.
I'm relatively often facing the same issues, worth noting is that it does seem to connect the call as I have had customers tell me they heard me grumbling before the call got disconnected (so I gotta be more careful with grumbling )
Happened to me last night, just turned the phone off (power for a few secs then slide down) and on again.
Hello. I was jogging yesterday. And was running runkeeper the running+gps app. And suddenly i heard a loud beep and then the phone turned off... When i got home i turned the phone on. It wouldn't work. So i took out the batteri and waited. I put it in a few hours later and it worked. Now the screen turns on and off all the time. Its quite annoying. Anyone got any problems with it or anyone think they can help me? please post. Thank you.

So it looks as a hardware problem, mabe with backlight of the display.
What was the last thing that you were doing before that problem (phone fall down, get wet, modify some libs, reload firmware)?

hi mate, Do you always play games while you charging your phone? I think that is the cause of the problem, i had a blank screen problem too, but its not really bad bcoz when i push the on/off button on the top then push it again it will display the screen like a normal.And i notice this problem happened to me since i addicted to play a virtual tennis, i play till the battery drain and connected the charger and keep playing the game, after couple of day, then i got this problem. And one more thing, while i playing any games, i always used the home button to reply sms i got then i push the home button again to get back to the game i played.

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.
Sent from my Gold and Black V10

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.
Hello everyone, this happened just today. I was using my galaxy alpha AT&T and all of a sudden the screen starting glitching and jumping. I was quite shocked because I bought this phone a few days ago. Although the phone is not brand new but the vendor told me that it's completely fine. Anyhow, I pressed the power button and waited for a few seconds then turned the screen back on. This time the screen was fine but after a few seconds of usage the problem started again. Now i read on the internet that this is not a screen issue but rather its associated with phone's charging port but I'm not sure. And another interesting thing is that the screen shots are completely fine and there are no signs of glitching or flickering. Secondly also note that I was experiencing the famous "cannot charge because battery is too cold!" message and I believe that this problem is also associated with the charging port. So please if anyone is familiar with this problem then guide me. Here a video link that shows what's happening to my screen

If you have the screen on the lowest bright setting the flickering will continue. Once I put it back on auto or at a slightly higher level the flickering went away. That's at least what fixed mine.

I've never had encounter this kind of problem. Your problem is too severe. I think it is related to the hardware.
