Are you rooted or stock?
If rooted what recovery/ROM are you using?
Your phone could simply have issues (faulty hardware/software) because it shouldn't lag even if you're on stock. You might be leaning towards getting a replacement pending on how long you've had it.
And do try to post in the correct section next time (Q&A).
I have the same issue occassionally.
It isn't enough to be a problem but, every so often it acts a little weird.
Sometimes it just feels like it's not registering things then it pops up a few seconds later. Case in point the app drawer won't move then it starts moving later. I'm on a debloated rom and I'm personally thinking it's a software issue. I would guess some process is getting hung up or something.
I don't see anything like this.
Between excellent LTE coverage in DFW area and the internals, I do not wait for anything... EVER
@gregk232.... same here.. got your post 12 seconds before you posted. Lol.

im rooted, no roms or anything though. it happened once on new years, and then this is the second time it happened. i got the phone around christmas
sorry for posting in the wrong section
Moved to Q&A
I experience this occasionally too, I hope it's just software, other than that a simple restart does the trick, I notice it only happens in the home screen, when you open an app its fine
Thrown up by my LG Optimus G, why you jelly at my superior phone?
ive identified at least one cause of it.
i use widgetsoid as my power control, and whenever i use the torch function on it, it causes the lag on my phone. every other feature seems to have no performance effect.
can anyone else confirm this?

Lately my tab has been turning off by itself and it takes me a long time to turn it back on by holding the power button. Has a fix been found for this problem yet? I'm a little worried that one day the thing won't turn on again. Sometimes the tab is charged when it turns off, and I'm never using the thing when it does, so battery isn't really the issue. Any suggestions?

Are you rooted? Running a custom ROM? Running any extra mods at all?
No, I'm fully stock,never been rooted. Willing to root if the problem can be fixed though through a rom or something
i've made good strides in combating this.
But, you must have CWM installed in order to flash.
When you are ready to do this, then head over to the dev section, kernel thread.
In the meantime, set wifi to never sleep, and see if that cures some of it.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
To be honest if you have a completely stock machine I would call samsung and get them to check it, it sounds faulty. I work for a large computer retailler and haven't seen a single one behaving like yours out of hundreds.

Sometimes when i press the power button on the side of my phone my phone will not fire up. I see the screen really vague. I need to press the button sometimes more them 10 times in order to get my phone working. It looks like the backlite is not working good. It is starting to piss me off.
Anyone else experiencing the same kind of problem?
No BackLite

Hey,
Sorry to say I don't know the answer to your question, but there is one thing I'd like to share with you. Samsung OLED displays don't have backlite. So it can't be broken either. Good luck finding a solution!
Stock rom = sent it back
Flash stock, if still not working, triangle away, Send it back..

I can sent it back but i dont want to miss my phone for some weeks if i can fix it myself. Then i have to go back to my S1
So you want a defective phone? Even if you fix it, you still have a defective phone. Get it sent back to the store or Samsung.. Surely you can live without it for the benefit of the time it comes to sell the device.

Are you sure you are on the most current official ROM? (This would be, starting today, Jellybean in a few countries)
Some old offical ROM's sometimes had the issue and it was annodying as hell. I have not seen it since switching to leaked Jellybean builds.
As the previous poster already said; there is no backlight so you should not be able to see anything. Maybe your eyes are playing tticks on you or you got some app such as ScreenFilter to act up.
Hey guys, my i777 has been random rebooting for 3 months now. I've tried everything in the realms of wiping, foctory reseting, ROM flashing etc. When I flash a new ROM (I like SuperNexus and CM9/10) the random reboots are happenning once a day. As time goes by, the number of random reboots reaches a number like 10, 15 per day, which makes the phone basically a black brick. I've tried identifying usage patterns that could lead me to a system fail (maybe some app could be causing it?) but it didn't make either.
It's a hard reset (it takes me back to Samsung screen) and I've tried everything, in every way, in every forum you can imagine, I've also tried looking in the last_kmsg log file, but it never gives me material to work with.
My last attempt to make this work is right below, I've recorded the logcat (it's really big!). I'd be very pleased if anyone with more knowledge in Android system than me could try to identify what's causing this. Thank you so much! The logcat is attached in this thread.
So you've tried going back to stock ginger bread, not installing any apps, and seeing if the problem persists?

Yes I have, keep getting random reboots. Is this a case of throwing the phone away and buying another? I have it for 1,5 years, maybe should be time to move ahead... This thing already gave me so much headache that I've already paid another phone in stress and sweat

As long as you're not adjusting voltages, sounds like maybe the power button could be sticking

Well, guess this could be my last try. I'll check it out and post my results asap... thank you.
There are tutorials on replacing the power button, from what I've read its not too difficult but I suppose its always easier said than done eh lol.

I had a similar issue, mine would reboot sometimes once a week, sometimes 5-10 times a day. Random sleep of death, freeze and complete battery drain etc. I finally sent it in on my square trade warranty and they replaced the main board - some sort of short in there that was causing it i guess. I suppose it would be possible to swap out the main board, or buy a used phone with a broken screen or something to strip for parts.
There is a great video by "le55ons" on youtube tearing down a I9100 that could help you get an idea of what's involved.
Every so often, my G3 will become unresponsive. Usually happens right after the screen comes on - the interface freezes. Pressing the power button does nothing, pressing and holding the power button does nothing. I have to remove the battery in order to reset the phone.
I did search the forums, but was not able to find any similar threads or posts, was curious if I was the only one having this problem. Any ideas what might be causing this? Anyone else have any luck identifying root cause and correcting the issue?
Appreciate any help you guys can provide.

I had the same thing happening while on ART. I switched back to dalvik and it hasn't happened since.

Is that a known issue with ART? I reverted back to Dalvik, will see if the result is the same as yours. Appreciate the tip.

If the problem goes away on Dalvik, I would suspect you have some app installed that gets activated on startup, and isn't 100% compatible with ART. While most apps work fine with ART, not all do. Google has made it clear that the version of ART on KitKat is experimental, and the version on 'L' will be much different.
I'm on dalvik and my phone has started this. Not sure what I've changed in the last days. Running alogcat but since starting I can't reproduce it.
I ran into this problem a while back. Since I never used the LG Keyboard I tried to freeze and/or Greenify the darn thing but that caused the phone to just pause for an extended period of time when waking up. Apparently it really wants LG Keyboard to be around. So I just made sure it wasn't the default keyboard. The phone never really became permanently unresponsive; after fifteen to twenty minutes it finally woke up. But who wants that?
Reverting back to Dalvik appeared to do the trick. It's been a few days, and my device hasn't locked-up/become unresponsive since making the change. Normally I would experience one lock-up/unresponsive event once a day, or every other day.

I have had Google Keyboard set to default input since I purchased my G3; LG Keyboard left a lot to be desired in terms of performance and functionality. I never witnessed my device "wake up" like you described, but to be fair I never let it go for that long, either. Usually after 5 minutes or so my patience would wane and the battery would be pulled. And to your point, no one, and I mean no one, wants to wait 15-20 minutes for their device to return to a usable state.

Why are you trying to use ART,moron? ART is explicitly experimental. Use dalvik (like you're supposed to) and see if you still have lockups (which hpu won't, if you use the runtime that is already long established for running android). Duh.

Many users have switched to ART and have seen an improvement in performance. It seems to be device specific as to whether you will encounter issues or not. That being said, I don't think it warranted the "moron" name tag. Just trying to keep the forum friendly.

It's a knowing issue on LG G3.
There is no any exact solution for now.No matter your device was rooted or not,art or dalvik, it could happened randomly.
I have a feeling there is no answer to this question yet, but is there any way to have the notifications on the second screen stay longer than like 3 seconds? I feel like as soon as I pick up the phone to see the notification, it has already been dismissed. This is a real bummer because the whole point of this second screen is that we don't need to turn on the main screen to see notifications.
There is no setting for this that I saw, so I got a feeling this can only be fix with ROOT.
Anybody else feel the same way about this?
Yeah no settings to extend the time of notification as of uet it will be tweeked by devs tho
Sent from my supercharged LG V10 H961N
I know how to do this, I've actually changed it to 5 seconds, but it requires me modding the apk. Ive been having a lot of trouble though getting these second screen mods sticking after reboots.
Is your method too difficult to explain? Willing to try anything.
Sent from my LG-H961N using XDA Free mobile app
I will try anything too.
I too am willing to do just about anything including rooting my phone. I have always rooted everything until this phone. For the first time since the original galaxy I'm not even running a launcher. I've had Nova on most phones for years and years. Tasker works completely fine without forcing it to run in the foreground too. The LG phone is really nifty barring having to lunge for your phone on "ding" to see the second screen do it's thing.
