Hi guys, l have recently bought international s3 *India. I am experiencing sleep of death. From time to time screen doesn’t turn on, I have to remove battery 2 to switch the phone on. I was wondering if this is a known issue with phone. I have few more issues. There are black spots and the screen. It is only visible in pitch dark. And there is a slight lag here and there. I feel like installing CM. But it is hardly been 10 days since I got the phone. Any helo would be appreciated. Btw, I am running stock. Thanks for reading!

I bought the Motorola RAZR 1 week ago, my first impression about this device was positive. I bought this device after HTC Desire. I haven't rooted my device, it's all stock.
Now, I have experienced some problems I want to know if these problems are normal or not, and if so should I ask for a mobile replacement.
First problem, is that while playing sprinkle I experience some lags. When I start the game sometimes the screen freeze for 2 or 4 seconds then the games goes back normal and then after a while (after I pass 2 - 3 levels) the lag shows up again. Also the water in sprinkle shows as dots, or drops of water.
Second problem, while I'm charging the mobile and typing sometimes it chooses random letters I didn't touch. So, in general I have touch problems while charging the phone. It doesn't happen always but like while typing every 4 or 5 words it might screw up. But when the mobile is disconnected from the charger it works flawlessly.
So, are these problems normal or I should head back and ask for a replacement?
As for the charging issue I'm having the same thing. It started for me after vzw sent out the. 748 update. So I'm guessing that there connected.

I am using unlocked version, I didn't install any updates.
I don't know if it was already updated or not.
Try installing a different keyboard like Swiftkey X and see if the random letter problem goes away. I have not seen this problem on my RAZR.
It's not just with the keyboard. Sometimes it also happens when I click on an icon a different program starts. It doesn't happen that often, but it happens.
Have you experienced lag while trying sprinkle?
Are you using the default charging cable or another brand cable?

I'm using a vzw 9 foot charger. The eco green one. I wouldn't think a charger would cause it, but I'm a noob.

I know on my Motorola Droid, if I wasn't using the stock cable the touchscreen would be unusable when the device was plugged in. It would register touches in the wrong places and type by itself.

What about the lags I have while gaming?

I got the same problem. Actually the touch-screen is kind of unusable if power is plugged in. Typing is very slow and often false. When I use swype, you can see that the touch input does not produce smooth lines as usual. Also hitting the right icon on the dash screen is hard as well, so it's not a problem with the keyboard. I experienced that problem with ICS and still have it with JB.
Any Ideas? It's funny that some people have that problem but obviously not all.
btw I use a german telekom branded razr.
I experienced touch screen issues once - at that time I was charging the phone, whatever I was typing, it was all wrong. When removed from charger, touch screen was responding perfect. Possibly it was some voltage issue, now everything is fine as I am using different charging point.

try installing a custom rom which cleans boat or other services and is just a light rom. alot of applications and alot of bloat does slow down the phone. i know what your saying and it happens alot especially when the phone becomes heavy. you should carry apps you use most frequently and i noticed widgets alot of them also give me lag on this phone so i avoid using them except calendar which i use frequently. also try a custom rom it will help something light like CM 10 or liquid smooth

Is the phone usable or did you get the famous black screen if death?

Now that you mention it, i have been getting the black screen of death. What does it mean and how do i fix it?

Shot in the dark, but you could unknowingly have status bar brightness enabled. This changes brightness by sliding across the status bar. Some ROMs have this.

No, thats not it

Suggest that you clean slate the device ...including format of the emmc .
Then reload the rom ..
Remember to move all data you want to keep too PC ...
Unless you aren't formatting the external card ...then put it there ...
This will at least tell you if it's a dirty flash or not ....and you might try a good stock type build to confirm you don't have digitizer issues ...g
Do you have auto-brightness enabled in the browser? I had mine enabled and it would automatically stay on after closing the browser.

hi
was wandering if anyone was having this issue,
for some reason now and again the touch screen stops responding no message shows on screen but to resolve i have to turn screen off n on and it works again, was hapoening on ee rom and custom rom
just wandering if its just me or a common issue

Have you had this issue from day 1?
My lock screen sometimes doesn't recognize my touch when I try to enter my unlock pattern.
I have to release and try again, I was thinking it was just me but could be an issue?
Aside from the lock screen everything else works ok.
Is it only certain parts of the screen or the whole thing? maybe take the phone back to the shop where you got it and get an exchange?
hmm yh the whole screen doesnt respond although it hasnt happened today tho but its wierd seems like a softwaee issue might try and flash a different rom and see how it is
Sent from my GT-I9305 using Tapatalk 2
From my experience, it's not the touchscreen but something hogs your phone CPU cycles for a brief moment. Have you tried going to stock and not installing any apps?
I similar issue on GS2 where whole phone freezes (although plays music in the background) and I thought it was touch for a very long time until I realized it was some ****ty app I installed (some tamagochi app I think)
I had this aswell found out it was when I loggers back onto my phone and it checked what as I had running .
I'm a big multi tasKer
try holding your center key and close any UN used apps
yh i agree, will try that next time plus monitoring apps in better battery stats

Hmmm i havent noticed anything like that... are you on stock? I was thinking it may b a software setup issue, As there are many things that can happen when you start modding your phone. But I have quite a few mods and I have not had this issue, I have Skype always on Tango, Viber, Whats App,Facebook, Ms Exchange Services, I have 6 Widgets in total spread out in 4 homescreen. 4 of those widgets Auto update. So I have quite abit going on in this little thing
does seem like a software issue happened again but 5 mins later was showing touches on screen wierd

Not had any issue with my screen and I am running quite a lot on my phone so if it happens with stock I would start to remove apps one by one or do a wipe and add them back one by one. Could be a hardware issue though.

GOOOOOOOOOOD NEWS
this what i got from HTC representative
Dear Salwansk,
I have some news for you that I missed earlier today. I can confirm that we have started working on a touch sensitivity update for your phone. I don't have an ETA for release, however we have some suggestions in the meantime. If you have a screen cover or screen protector, we suggest removing that and cleaning the screen.
Let's calibrate the keyboard, which impacts the entire display. Here's how:
1. Slide the Notification panel open
2. Tap Settings
3. Tap Languages and keyboard
4. Tap HTC Sense Input
5. Tap Advanced
6. Tap Calibration tool
I also suggest cleaning the screen if there is a chance that dust or moisture is on the device. This can further improve your sensitivity.
i can confirm that my phone and my family phones are way better now........
what i did is cutting around the buttons "BACK & HOME"..... now it has been almost 24 hours and i never get the lag again
i hope it will work forever
Noticed this myself. Might be tied to the issue of decreased capacitive button sensitivity. I'm hoping the 1.29 OTA update will fix it.
Yeah same here. I noticed I have to press it at a certain point to function
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
same here, the back button is slow or sometimes doesn't work. hopefully the next OTA will fix it.
There is a calibration utility somewhere in settings that fixes this from what I remember reading a few days ago.

I wasn't having any problems until I put on a screen protector, then it became laggy. Took it off and haven't had a problem since.
I cut my screen off where the buttons are and I haven't had issues since. A bit annoying, since I want the SGP Ultra Clear but don't feel like tearing them up. I've heard that the Taiwanese version got an update that fixed it completely.

It's a known issue people. The .13 update fixes it.

I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if anyone knows of a fix.
While using the latest UK i9300 Stock ROM, my phone behaves as it should when on phone calls. However when I use CyanogenMod 10.1, my screen goes black and then flickers on and off when I press anywhere on the screen. The only way I have found to stop this, is to lay the phoine flat and the screen will stay on long enough to unlock the device.
It's nothing major and it's certainly not enough of a reason to make me use the stock ROM, however it does at times drive me mad.
Cool story.
