When I press the Power button to put the phone on standby and then again to turn the phone on again minutes later, pressing the App Drawer icon doesn't load any of my apps until I press the Recent Apps button. Anybody else notice this problem?

no, i havent noticed. are you stock or rooted? if rooted, what rom?
stock, non-rooted
I haven't noticed that bug, but I did have a keyboard glitch. I am also Not Rooted and 100% stock. I just did a factory reset on my phone and all the issues went away, except the Prox sensor while on a phone call doesnt work correctly

Yes it passed. However when I make a call the screen turns off and I have to hit the power button to turn it back on. The P sensor doesn't work like its suppose to

How would I do that? I am 100% Stock and not Rooted

you can wipe the cache partition from the stock recovery that is on your phone. power the phone off, hold vol down then press and release power. this will take you to the bootloader. press vol down once to highlight recovery then press power. when you see the red triangle, press vol up & power at the same time. when you see the android system recovery menu, press vol down until wipe cache partition is highlighted and then press power. when that is finished press power with reboot system now highlighted. hope this helps

Yes. This is happening to me on MeanBean ROM .3 S-OFF. Thought I needed to re-flash or that it was ROM related. Sucks that this happening in the stock version as well.
No problems with the app drawer for me. I'm on MeanBean .3.
Also, my proximity sensor is working properly also. I remember when the last update came out a lot of people had problems with the proximity sensor not working properly also. Must be a hardware bug on some phones.

when you said that you did a factory reset, how did you do it? bootloader or recovery or settings?

When I updated to ICS the other day, I started having problems. First of all, my phone is laggy as a mtf. When I try to text, the inputs are slower than I can type and programs take awhile to load. I also cannot screenshot anymore. I tried to home + power button and volume down + power button, but nothing works. I tried restoring my phone in hopes that it would remedy the problem, but it did not help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

To fix your lagging phone, put a custom ROM on it.
Screenshot, IDK. Vol down and power has always worked. Your holding it wrong?
Try holding the volume down button and power for a second or so

Nothing works. :/ Shouldn't it not be laggy at all?

Go to settings > developer options > transition animation scale> adjust.
The smaller the number the faster
1)Yes the screen shot capability still works. Its user error in your part. 2)what do u mean "it shouldn't be laggy at all" what are u expecting from a bloated carrier release?

No, my screenshots do not work. I have tried all methods and it does not work.
Is there anyway that I can downgrade to GB?

Honestly you're the only person who hasn't been able to do it so that leads us to believe it is user error

Shouldn't it be "power button + home button"?

It was when I was on GB, but supposedly it has changed to Volume Down + Power Button. (Does not work for me.)
After update from GB to Ics via kies... factory reset your phone... everything would be fine...

If it's that much of an issue, there are apps in the play store.

no. All ics ROMs use the current Google standard of vol down and power, afaik. Power and home was a Sammy convention on GB
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
Did you try pressing both the power and home buttons at the same time and holding them in for a good four or five seconds? It may take a bit longer to activate since you are having performance issues.
The key is to HOLD the vol down + power AT SAME time... Ultimatum is home + power only ICS ROM I have found that on.....

You have a lot of issues and even on a stock room just save your texts through SMS backup and restore get a copy of titanium backup sync your accounts backup your contacts to your sim, pull out your SD card and do a factory reset clean install of ics then load it back up test it before you re install all your apps and stuff to be sure its correct. Even something as simple as flashing and update can and will have issues that can usually be fixed just starting over also since your on stock save how you have your apps set up I hate when they arnt organized. Screen shot it will work unrooted I think

I have had the same problem many times. In my case, it was caused by the fact that I press power first and volume down next. That works most of the time, but sometimes it just leads to lowering the volume.
When I press both buttons exactly the same time, it works always. (For me at least)
I've held the power button for several minutes, the buttons blink but the phone won't restart. Any tips besides letting the battery die?
Try volume up and down together plus power button, works on One X+

Hold both power and vol down until the screen goes black, usually a second boot gets you back into the os
Remember to clear your dalvik and cache before you use aroma, these current installers bug out if it's not done.

Running CleanRom 2.5, my phone previously presented me with a Power menu when holding down the power button. This allowed me to either Shutdown or Reboot. Now, whenever I hold the power button down, it reboots automatically without offering me any choices. What causes this and how can I fix it?

yep, unfortunately, installing tweaks like AutoBrightness Patch or Tether Patch breaks the power menu.
I was attempting to flash over a new ROM. The sense 5.5 that just released. using the fastboot/hboot wasn't working so I tried to install from TWRP recovery, still not working. I then wiped my phone and did a factory reset, including the ROM wipe on TWRP. It booted up without an OS and now I can only get the boot screen to appear but the phone won't shut off. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!
Hold the power button down until the screen turns off, then immediately hold the volume down button until it boots back into hboot. (You don't have to keep holding the power button after the screen turns off) other than that I have no idea what your post is about or what you were trying to do.

I've had some issues trying to flash new 4.3 roms on new TWRP, install fails after few seconds, screen goes dark, then HTC screen w red dev text comes up, have to hold power button to restart into bootloader/recovery. Seems to help to reboot recovery after wiping and before flashing the rom for me
So not only is my power button not working, Im stuck in the bootloader screen and cant reboot since the power button isn't working. So how can I reboot my phone to at least get it back to being a phone? I took the back part of the phone off to see if I remove the power button and manually press it would that work, no luck there. Any suggestions?
*******Ok so I think I fixed the problem, turns out the power button just need a little bit of help. so if I mess with it to turn off and on it's works. Thanks for the responses, glad to know that when needed, help is there and will be given******
Also, sounds like I might need to be moving on from this phone to the M8. New phone??? well alright!!!!!!

Are you familiar with fastboot? Connect to a PC and use fastboot reboot.

Ok, I am connected to my comp, but how would I fast reboot without the use of the power button?
OK UPDATE!!!
So I held the power button down for a min or so and it shut down and rebooted. But the power button still doesn't work.
Yea I know, it doesn't make sense if the power button doesn't work how did it reboot when I held it down for a min? Im trying to wrap my brain around that one too. lol
