Is it just me or does it take a while sometimes for the phone to reboot while holding down the power button after, say, Aroma freezes? Sometimes it's quick and others it just blinks the capacitive lights at the bottom and does nothing.
It's not just you.

When i wake up,i just find that my 101 cant open,when i press on the power button,the led light just flash 1 time,then it close...
the battery is full charging...
why it cant open????
P.S i may think that i let it to stay at thr recovery mode last light..
try holding down the power button to see if it shuts down. Then hit the power again to see if it boots properly.
I often have the same problem. When the device goes into standby, I try to turn it on by pressing the power button but it doesn't work:
- Press it once: nothing happens
- Press it again: flashes very shortly and black again
- After that I have to press it several times and sometimes it will turn on. Sometimes I have to reset it completely (press and hold for 10secs)
Really annoying...

Try to set the brightness setting above 30% or more. Most of the time i see that problem is when brightness is set at very low level.

Try keeping your entirely unhelpful comments to yourself. They aren't appreciated. People knew what was meant.

I found the device won't power up properly if you let the power drain out of it to the point of it going into standby and then charging it back up again. The light just flashes at you rapidly. Takes a manual power off before it'll boot up again. If I find my device about to power itself down (1-2% power left), I power it off to stop that from happening until I can charge it up again.
I was reading a book and the screen just stopped responding to finger touches, I think a reset might fix it but I can't switch it off. Long press on the off switch gives me the Android power options but of course I can't select any of them.
Any ideas? apart from waiting for the battery to go dead.
/edit solved it, long press of power and center button uintil you see the HP logo. I thought there might be some Android specific way.
For touchscreen not responding, I often just click power button to turn off the screen, then home to wake it up. That seems to fix it more often than not.
Next time you need to reboot, just hold down Home + Power for 10+ seconds
Anyone else have this (I have the Korean SK model, E210S), sometimes it just freezes on the screen lock. Touch screen unresponsive, holding down the power button gets me the menu and then it seems to work. Just tapping the power button (to turn off the screen) doesn't work, home button doesn't work, etc. Never need to reboot, but it is irritating.
Hey guys wondering if anyone experienced the phone being basically bricked without actually unlocking, rooting or anything.
It has happened before one, just laying on the table and the phone turning off but it came back on after a while.
Today it occurred again but has not turned back on for two days. When charging the only light is the LED flashing constantly every second. If I hold the power button and volume up then the flashing of the LED changes pace to One long flash (1 sec) to two quicker flashing ones (.5 seconds). If I unplug it and plug the phone back, The LED flashing is back to the original constant pace.
When unplugged sometimes holding the power and volume up button initiates the LG logo and then turns off and then shows the logo once more and then turns off for good.
If I plug this into the computer, its like someone ejecting a usb and plugging it in like a maniac. I heard the connecting and disconnecting sounds from windows nonstop like as if its about to blow up.
I've tried holding the power button for a minute the same goes with different combinations with the volume buttons.
The only thing I haven't tried is opening the phone, kind of afraid I will mess it up. Any solutions?

Never heard of this but I can throw a few suggestions out. Try unplugging, then holding both Volume buttons and the power button (All three) for about 10 seconds. Try different USB ports.
Try this if all else fails: Source: http://cellphoneforums.net/lg/t348484-perform-master-hard-reset-lg-optimus-g.html#axzz2YPtvkfDk
To Perform a Master Reset via Hardware
1. Turn off your device.
2. With the device turned off, press and hold the Volume Down key as well as the Home key at the same time.
3. While both the Volume Down key and the Home key are held down, press the Power button.
4. When the LG logo appears, release all the keys.
5. Scroll to and highlight wipe data/factory reset by pressing the Volume Down key. Then press the Power button.
6. Scroll to and highlight Yes – delete all user data by pressing the Volume Down key. Then press the Power button.
7. As soon as the wipe has been completed, press the Volume Down key to scroll to and select wipe cache partition. Press the Power button when ready.
8. As soon as the wipe has been completed, press the Power button to select reboot system now.
9. The master reset should now be successfully completed and your LG Optimus G should restart.

I have no idea, when I plugged it in and check device manager, its constantly refreshing as its connecting and disconnecting the phone very fast. Is there another way to check

Anyways, doesnt matter guys thanks for trying, decided to just go in att and buy a samsung s4
It all started 2 days ago, when watching a clash of clans replay the screen turned off for the energy saving thing. I pressed the power button to bring it back, but the screen didn't turn on, i could hear the game sounds, and the touch screen was working, after the replay ended i was able to tab the buildings in my village and hear the sound they make. I pressed some random combination of buttons, i think its power+volume down and the screen turned on. It happened a second time during that day, and i was able to turn the screen on again. But the day after that trick didn't work and the tablet was stuck with a black screen.
I tried a factory reset, but the menu for it wouldn't appear, the odin menu by the other hand worked fine. The recovery menu should appear when with the tablet turned off you press volume up + home + power in that sequence, and releasing the power button at the samsung logo screen. But the menu never appeared, so i navigated it blindly and i think i managed to reset it, at the next accension i was prompted with the personal information field, name, google account, time settings etc..
The phone started again, with all default settings, and all my files where gone (so im assuming the factory reset worked) but when the screen turns off it doesn't come back by pressing the power button, it comes after trying a few combinations (and again i think it is power + volume down and wait a few seconds).
So im worried it was all in vain, also the screen brightness is bugged, and changes the colors, the become reddish with low brightness and some colors disappear.
Edit: After i let the screen turn off for the third time today, it doesn't come back on. So im back at the black screen...
