Hey all fellow enthusiasts,
I'm having a real issue and I can't seem to get to the bottom of it.
Almost every time my phone sleeps it won't wake properly, I press the power button, the LED hardware keys light up but no screen power on. It also doesn't display incoming calls or well anything but I tested calling it. Only way to wake it is by waiting about 7 minutes or restarting it.
I've done some research and suggestions of possible hardware issues seem unlikely as I have no other issues or crashes or anything. Phone works well unless I put it to sleep.
I found some strange activities in my log cat (attached) and found this:
07-16 21:14:31.070 D/Surface (2274): Excessive delay in unblankDisplay() while turning screen on: 419214ms
But I'm no expert so can't work out why, ive wiped stuff reset stuff uninstalled stuff.
Any help would be so greatly appreciated!
Thanks for any tips in advance.
P.S if you search for the above in the log that's the easiest way to skip all the non related log items.

check the freezing thread in General
Not sure if it's related but tell me you've noticed the 11 minutes of this repeated error:
Code:
07-16 21:03:21.145 W/SQLiteConnectionPool(3628): The connection pool for database '/data/user/0/com.outlook.Z7/databases/email.db' has been unable to grant a connection to thread 146 (Z7DBSharedPreferenceCache) with flags 0x1 for 30.000002 seconds.
Hello All,
Thanks for the pointers. I've tried all resolutions in all freezing threads I could find before posting except two, 1 is this file creation thing to write 60gb of data (I'll try this next) the other is to go back to stock which according to posts has a better SD fix than CM. Does anyone know if that's true?
Any other specific links to articles would really help so I can check I've tried them.
Thanks Again.

ive searched for things such as "sleep crash", "sleep bug", "screen wont turn on" etc. but can seem to find anything that tells me anything other than turn off wifi (which i tried to no avail). My issue is that when i press the power button for 1 second to turn off my archos 70 screen it will not turn back on. Same thing happens when i let it fall asleep. If i leave it plugged in and not allow it to turn off screen i have no issues. My apologies if i just don't know what words to search for ... i tried. In on the .4 firmware (latest) with no mods. This has happened through the last 3 firmwares from archos. Any ideas?
Have a you tried a full reinitialization (in settings > repair and formatting) and then reinstalling the latest firmware? If you have just been updating the firmware, the problem may have been deeper.
Thats strange... I have a similar issue with my 101: when i leave my tablet asleep for more than 20min, I can't turn it back on without doing a hard reset. Now it only happens when I simply shut off the screen and leave it alone. If I hold the power button and use deep sleep though, it works just fine. When I can't get it started I notice the little power light is on, but the screen stays black... any suggestions??
I have read somewhere in this forums that re-calibrating your screen from Settings might help, but I still didn't tied - if someone try please post results.

i had the same problem on my 32, albeit not that frequently. Downloading the FW and reflashing it seems to have made the problem go away.
You know what? Strangely enough after I replied to your post I downloaded the latest fw (2.1.4) and the problem seems to have gone away no special flash no repair I just installed and rebooted and so far no prob... I will keep testing this and post results
Edit* Ok so far so good... no problems. I'm actually surprised I'm getting better response from the device despite everyone's warnings about 2.1.4. But that's another topic. I think its just a bad install of your current FW, but I'm just guessing... My device has had the issue since I got it, I just decided to live with it but like I said the latest update fixed it... So it HAS to be the FW

err I'm afraid that I spoke too soo. My device keeps getting stuck and won't awake from sleep. This seems to happen most after switching wifi on or off, specifically whilst the device is playing music.

how are you installing the firmware? maybe im doing it wrong. I let the device update to latest 2.1.4 and then i wiped it via the settings and repair menu in android.
Edit**
like this??:
Step 1: Download the android 2.2 firmware for your archos tablet from here,you might a get a false positive notification from your browser as they are unaware of .AOS format, so ignore that and download it.
Step 2:Go to Menu > Settings > Device Storage & USB connection > USB connection mode of your tablet and set the connection mode to Mobile Media Device (MTP) and now connect your Tablet to pc.
Step 3:Now when the tablet is detected you will see a hard drive icon,double tap and open it and copy and paste the firmware (.AOS) file into the hard drive(make sure you dont copy it in any folder inside it like Music,Videos etc).
Unplug the USB connection and the Archos device will automatically locate the update file and will prompt you for the update,just follow the screen options and you are done,if it does not prompt you for an update then you might have accidentally misplaced the file in one of the folders,just locate the .AOS file from the file manager and and open it to start the update.
No no it wasn't that complicated... It was actually the simplest fix for a difficult problem. My device when I got it was running 2.1.2 out the box... Even then It had the screen problem. When I got the chance I installed 2.1.3 OVER THE AIR. Straight from Archos. Still had the issue though, I figured it would have been fixed but was greatly disappointed... Then I sort of just lived with the problem for awhile... I saw that the 2.1.4 update was released but was wary about downloading it because sooo many people are having issues. Just the other day though, the device cut off on me again and I figured to hell with it... So I downloaded the 2.1.4 OTA as well... no website, no manual install, I just let the device run its course on its own. After the update, it rebooted normally and it's been working great since... Sorry to hear not everyone is so fortunate... I really hope this helps somewhat
Hello
sorry for my english.
When I'm not plugin with the usb power connected, I've got a stranger behaviour very disturbing.
When my device goes itself or by on/off push buttons in sleep, automatically it reboot itself.
So, if I let him alone, the battery fall down very quickly, and I have to wait the rebooting before to use it.
I've read something which could help me here, but not enought : "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184852"
. Do you think, it could come from Avast?
. I tried different ROM official and no unficial, sill the same. The thing strange, and after a official instal, the behaviours has desapear until i reboot.
Archos 80 Gen 9
3.2.79 from surdu_petru
In advance thank you.
A first solution : airplane mode
Bonjour,
I've found this solution http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=53186
Put your device in airplane mode. Go in sleep (black screen). Push the ON button. Remove airplane mode. It's working! I don't know why?
It's not efficient for me. I have to know why, and how to solve it!
If you restart your device, and the WIFI was activated, you have to do it again.
Let's see what happen in the few day.
It has worked only one time.
In fact, if I let Avast make a scan or i let a music player, every thing is all right.
I do not understand what's happen....
decrase the Brightness
Nop
Thanks you for this answer but it didn't work. I decrease the brightness but same behaviour.
Mine has done the same thing. It's annoying. Just won't wake up, have to reboot. On newest FW too.

Mine's bone stock. Haven't done anything to it yet besides the factory firmware update. Was about to start rooting it, but haven't yet. About to hit up your thread to get that going. I DID have it airplane mode today, as I was on an airplane, hit the button, came right up. There's something to that...
Add
Thanks
To add some information -
I have done your procedure : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456875
. Step 1: Gain temp root - OK Every works corectly (I only used the original post from Paul's root)
. Step 2: Enable SDE and Permanently root your tablet I do not did the last step below :
15. Turn off your device again and boot back into recovery
16. Select Developer Menu > Remove android Kernel
17. Accept warnings (MEDIA & APPS WILL BE UNAFFECTED)
18. Reboot. Your device will now boot the rooted edition every time

. Other thing, my archos do not seam to be rooted : When I'm trying to use titanium, it explain that it should be not rooted.
I've changed the method to the right one. Check my thread

No
I tried 3 times. but still the same behaviour.
After a reboot or after that I install a appli, same behaviour. Very supprising.
Do you have any idea?
Cool
Trop bien!
It seams that the v 3.2.80
which have this correction : Hard drive based products: avoid suspend/resume issues happening sometimes
correct effectively those wrong behaviour.
I will confirm you next week that it's "SOLVED"
I'm trying this update tonight!
I like this tablet, except the damn sleep of death, which I JUST had to go through to boot it up to check the firmware version. If that gets fixed, I can permanently replace my Acer A100. It is the most annoying thing about this tablet. I do have a 250gb G80. Hope this does it.
So far so good, wakes right up. Need to let it sit for a bit and let it idle awhile.

You could do a factory reset, that helps many times. Type *2767*3855# in the dial pad. Backup important files first.
Thanks. Will try that.

After updating my GT-I9100 from Gingerbread to the official ICS 4.0.3 ROM I experienced random shutdowns as aforementioned. I also had the screen freeze and become unresponsive. Screen unresponsiveness only occurred the first two days, random shutdowns occurred for about a week. After a slew of additional app update notifications and subsequent updating, I no longer have the shutdown problem either. I originally upgraded through Kies on 4/20/2012 and by around 4/27/2012 I no longer have any issues. Btw, I'm on ATT in the U.S. and my phone is not rooted.
I did a factory reset and i noticed some things:
Self shutdown occurred only once.
The phone touch is considerably faster than gb.
The screen visuals are more vivid (i think thats because of my current wallpapers)
The apps load times are also faster, but the camera takes some time to load.
Tl;dr
I dont regret the hard reset but the shutdown happened once only after that.

Bad news... Shutdown twice this morning, after going into lock mode(click power button)
One thing i noticed is that he takes toooo muuucchhhh to boot when holding the power button when this hapens, so i have a theory that he actually doesnt shuts down, rather it jus wont turn on the screen. Im going to try to replicate it and send some kind of warning to one of my apps, or mail myself.

Indeed, it is not shutting down, but not waking the screen. This is known as the "sleep of death" (SoD) and has been discussed in dozens of threads already.
Usually caused by undervolting with values that are too low, but also occurs on some peoples phones when they are completely stock.
Changing kernel can sometimes help, or if you already have a custom kernel loaded, changing your voltage settings to be a bit higher on the 800mhz step.

Good Day, I'm hoping someone can help me, I've tried searching but I can't seem to find anything(mainly because I don't know the best way to describe it) sometimes, randomly the screen will turn off, as it should but then it wont come back on, I've installed the wake on volume mod and that doesn't seem to help.
Happened with CM7 and now with The darkside rom.
It's sporatic, it wont do it for like 10 hours then will do it 3 times in an hour.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I have a similar problem. But mine only happens when i make or recieve a call, doesn't do it everytime. I actually found a thread where it said it was possibly a broken proximity sensor. So the solution was to download 2 things from the app store and install them, and disable the proximity sensor. I am going to try that, cause when i make or recieve a call I actually turn my screen off so i won't hang up on anyone or hit several buttons. The solution they gave was to have a rooted phone, and download "android sensor box" so you can see the name of your proximity sensor, and then download "hardware disabler". Find the name of your proximity sensor and disable it. I have tried everything else, so what do I have to lose on trying this, lol.
Update, after several days i've found the culprit. There was an issue with my sd card, once I swapped it out haven't had a problem since

I am using latest version of Epinter's CyanogenMod 10.1 rom. Sometimes, scratch that almost once every hour my phone doesn't wake up when i pressed the power button. My only option is to take out the battery. I' ve seen other people with similar problem but they said it reboots before experiencing this problem, but I don't see any reboot. It even happens when I lock it and try to wake up a second later. Also if my phone is locked in that state when people call me they hear it ringing but my phone gives no response. Does anyone have a similar problem and/or have a solution to this problem. Thnaks in advance.
deep sleep fix or did you not try that? furthermore, you do realize that this could have been posted in the dev thread, and that this is an alpha kernel and an alpha rom and is experimental
