My phone occasionally doesn't get locked automatically. Whenever I receive a message or notification, the screen would come up but doesn't go back into sleep mode after certain time. It just stays awake unless you lock it manually. It doesn't happen all the time but I've noticed it's happening more frequently now days. This just kills my battery life.
Is this known issue with the phone? My phone is just rooted without any custom roms. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
I'm having the exact same problem, it would be much appreciated if someone can suggest a solution. I'm currently running the base ROM.
When I got the phone a few days ago mine would take time to lock. I went to settings > display>lockscreen>lock timer and set it to immediately. It has worked fine since - rooted, stock rom.
Hiya pony!!
The issue I have is mine never sleeps when charging. I have to manually lock it while charging. Fine otherwise.

I am experiencing the same problem as everyone. I just noticed it now. Everything set to minimum of staying awake. I have to manually lock it too. Noticed it when I was charging. I havent noticed it before until now. Also some chargers dont work well with the Optimus G which causes the touchscreen to be sensored when nothing is touching it. I dont know why its staying awake besides that.

If you are using the base ROM, there is a script that gets run each boot that sets the stay awake option to on in the developer options.
It was left over from some testing of the ROM. Nottach said it was safe to get rid of.
The offending script is in /system/etc/init.d/
It is called 69thebase (or something like that, I no longer have the file, I know it is numbered 69).
After you delete it, just go back to developer options and make sure stay awake is unchecked and reboot.
Original Post
Now, you have had issues with non-LG chargers causing touch issues?
I let a family member borrow mine because they left theirs at work. I have been using my old phones charger, and just noticed my screen is really bad when plugged in... it loses touch and it is really slow.
It is from the charger and not the phone?
Awesome.
Thanks.

This is the second time my SGS2 keeps turning itself on after I've switched it off.. Last time I removed the battery and then lost all my settings/widgets on the homescreen - pain in the a*** to set it up again! Obviously I don't want to have to do it a third time!
Anyone else having the same problem? Any ideas on how to permanently fix this issue?
Any thoughts are greatfully received.

Cheers. Ok , so you are on stock, could you go into settings, about phone, and give the baseband,build number kernel version? Also, where are you? Uk/europe/asia/etc.

not very helpful.
On topic, sadly:
I could say, flash this, flash that. wipe this wipe that. but it does sound like an odd problem. And rather than advise you to do something that may void your warranty......I'm going to suggest that you try to get it exchanged. Rather get it replaced now, than waste time trying to fix it, and then still have to get it replaced/repaired.
GSOH. Looking for a permanent fix though...

Without being an expert I would suggest that some application in your phone is switching it on for updates etc.Check in your phone for active applications & switch them off one at a time or all together & see it that cures the problem. Hope this helps.
so i dont know much about the technical stuff, but i totally had this same problem. but like other people the only time my phone seemed to stay off with the battery in, was when it was plugged into the mains charging. so i tried a combination of plugging the phone in to charge whilst the phone was on or off, and then switching the phone off, and then removing the charger whilst the phone was still off. i'm not sure exactly what combination worked, but one did, and since then, sofar atleast, my phone no longer restarts every time i switch it off!
not very technical, but hope that helps!
My S3 is fully working. Only the issue is power goes off automatically some time later if it is not used and left.
Does anyone help me to fix this issue?
Galaxy S3 Turns Off (Fully Off) Overnight or When Unused
Having exactly the same problem.
When my Galaxy S3 is left for a while (more than half an hour or so it seems) I find it is not in idle mode, but has fully turned itself off.
The question is, whether this is due to a crash, or intentional (which would be a terrible feature if you wanted to receive a call overnight.)
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing it? - The first S3 I had developed screen issues and exhibited similar problems, turning itself off. But it turned out that one was faulty - the screen was corrupted after a while and it would not turn back on.
So, is there a feature we can turn off which does this that we can turn off? Or is it simply a flaw, and if so is there a way to trace it with say, logs or something else?
Any help gratefully appreciated.
No problems here. Running rooted stock rom and stock kernel. Maybe you've downloaded some faulty app thats screwing your phone.

Hmm... Perhaps, but if an app can cause your phone to shut off entirely without user input?... surely that's an O/S security issue
Well, I've seen a few other people with the same issue, I suppose I could try a factory reset and try for a few days without any extra apps. (Arg! The pain of no apps!)
Widgets could be a culpret I suppose. Still, turning off entirely? Seems a bit odd.
Anyone have any more ideas?
Experienced same thing when i was still new to android. Phone just reboot itself and sometimes it lights up itself with out touching it. Then i read somewhere that it could be some app causing it so i did a fresh start. Wiped up everything and install a stock rom thru odin. From then i always read user reviews and its permissions when downloading apps and when i find the permissions fishy il pass on it.

if there a different way to wipe the phone that does anything different then whats in the settings area cause i beleive deep sleep battery saver screwed up my phone from 12am and during the night data and wifi switches off during the day im fine i uninstalled the app did all types of scenarios still didnt work
so then my last resort was wiping the whole phone and i did that via the settings menu and i still have the problem!!
i dont know how to get rid of this issue
Explain what issue your having in detail.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
i posted this in a separate thread ...Since installing apps such deep sleep battery saver and longevity I've had a problem starting everynight at 12am when phone goes into deep sleep I lose WiFi and data I didn't have this problem prior to trying these apps I uninstalled them before I even noticed the problem tried reinstalling and setting things to disabled and uninstall again.
I have even wiped my phone at this point and I still have the problem..at this point I don't know which app it is i think its deep sleep battery saver since im pretty sure it started right after experimenting with that but I know I didn't have this issue prior it seems to obviously be on a schedule since it starts happening at 12
Another sign would be that it doesn't seem to happen when its on the charger which is another reason that would lead me to believe a battery saving app did something..now the question is how can I fix this especially if wiping didn't even fix it this is very annoying cause I rely on getting instant email notifications at all times and now I don't get them late at night if my phone is sleeping
ive contacted the deep sleep team through this site and contacted longevity as well to see if they have anything else to say..deep sleep was looking into it but im not sure what will come of that
That sounds like HTC's battery saving thing. Iirc from 12-6 if it is face down it'll turn off radios to save battery.

Are you rooted? If so, you can use Gemini App Manager to block any service or app, including system services that use excessive battery (make sure they're not vital to your phone first, though). If not, then please post a battery usage screenshot so we can see what apps are using your battery.

i am not rooted,at this point battery isnt the issue just getting this wifi/data issue to stop is but here is a screenshot i just took
im debating exchanging the phone for a replacement this week would i have any issue doing that im just going to tell them it started doing it out of no where
also before i do that can anyone confirm that this just isnt something i havnt noticed ...after 12am leave your phone alone for 25-30 min while connected to wifi or should even happen not on wifi but i have mine on wifi and wake the phone up and if you have it too you will see it reconnecting to both wifi and data
at this point just want anyone to confirm if i can get it replaced like i said cause ill probably just do that tomorrow
I say again, this is how it is supposed to work. You just didn't notice it before. But you can possibly disable it.

hey looks like your right i didnt think it was before cause the way you said it sounded like it happens when you put the phone face down only but it does seem to be a problem unfortunately that app doesnt work
even though it doesnt say it would work for the dna and it says root required this apk seems to work for wifi http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=34821894
i would love if i can get 4g not to disconnect to incase im not on wifi at that time
hope something more specific to the dna comes out that also lets you keep 4g
Has anyone experience some form of lag/delay/unresponsiveness for the GS5? I had to sometimes wait more than 10 secs for the lock screen to load or hold down the power/wake button to get the screen to show up. Please let me know if I should get my GS5 replaced! Thank you!

I noticed this started to happen when I started using the fingerprint. Also if you turn off the lock screen just as it coming on or if you turn it on just as it is going off. Seem to get confused and can take time to respond and yes 10 seconds sounds about right of me as well.
I realized when it started doing it was when the AutoProtect was enabled and My Magazine enabled and Geo News enabled. It's been 24 hrs since I turned it off and it seems to have stopped!
I think it's AutoProtect that caused the lock screen lag. Let me know if it stopped doing it for you!
yes i have this problem, i play alot of music and alot of times the tracks dont change and they will change a minute later, the lag seems ramdom.
i remove my magazine and geo news since i dont use either and will test it
thanks for the tips because this was driving me crazy
Don't forget about Autoprotect, It's been 18 hours since I turned it off and I haven't had the lock screen problem.

Are you running ART? If so try switching back to Dalvik. I have seen reports that ART is causing some people issues with their lock screen.

nope regular dalvik
never experience that before with the note 2 or note 3

I had the same thing on the GS4 and I've had it happen once or twice on my S5. It usually only happens when I've left the phone asleep for a while. I think it's most likely a software issue though, so I wouldn't bother replacing it.

Yes, since I don't have the problem it must be the users. Always love people who can't help but have to try to defend the phone manufacturer. The Black screen is a real problem for more than a few folks, you can google it if you don't believe me. I run a stock phone, and have made no changes, maybe I have four games on it, and have disabled some of the bloat. Recently and quite randomly, the screen will refuse to come on. Everything on the phone continues to run and it will even ring when you call it, but still the screen remains black until I pull the battery. I read that AT&T has resolved the issue and is sending out a fix as I type this. Don't know if the other carriers will follow suit or not.
It is a inconvenience to say the least but many users have tried all the known methods available to no avail. Seems to work fine for a undetermined period and then starts acting up again. I am notifying TMO tomorrow and see if they are going to be releasing the patch. If not, I guess it will be time to jump, Again.
Not sure if this is the root cause or not but seems to have done the trick for me so far..... I turned off auto brightness, and so far have not been able to replicate the problem, not sure though, my Note 3 would never let me use the auto brightness feature, when I would enable it on that phone the screen would always be way to bright. This one was the opposite. Could it be bad proximity sensors or the firmware that controls it? Need more people with the problem to test and report.
I too have had the black screen issue and the only fix is pulling the battery. It has happened 2x now, once completely stock and once since I rooted!

Yes and no. If the problem is a third party app, factory reset won't fix it, unless you restore as new and don't reinstall any apps. Safe mode will at least let you see if it's a third party app although you won't be able to do a lot with the tablet while it's in safe mode. Just email, youtube, etc.
But if it's happening every time the tablet sleeps - mine's not, just about once a week or so - you only need to let it sleep in safe mode and wake it back up to see if it's a third party app.

Some of the posts were wifi not working at all, some were after sleep. Either way, it looked like it worked for me for a couple of days, but this morning it was disconnected.
TiBackup ran last night, and it was supposed to sync to the cloud. It errored out with a connectivity problem. Thinking back, I believe the last time it dropped was on a scheduled backup day. I'm not certain, though.
Did you try safe mode, and if so, did it help at all?

Well, at least with Lollipop it's easier to rebuild from a factory reset. Guess I'll have to do that too.
BTW, unlike my N7 and S5, I have a fairly minimal install on the N9. All mainstream stuff, and only about half the app count of the other devices.
