I'm using one of the recent CM nightly builds and suddenly i can't boot. I noticed youtube updated right before it happened. I can't even boot into recovery. The samsung logo comes up but then nothing happens. Am I screwed? I wanted to wait for the nexus 5 before I upgrade
If you can see the Samsung logo, and the device vibrates, hopefully you're ok. You might have a stuck power button. It happens a lot. Try tapping it a bunch of times rapidly, or flicking the back with your finger.
Have you tried getting into download mode?

Hah, I guess that was it. The power button doesn't seem like it is stuck, but if I hold it down until the samsung log appears, then rapidly tap it, the boot completes. Thanks for the tip! Hopefully I can get this thing to last until October.
I had to take mine apart and clean it with a little rubbing alcohol to get it now to stick anymore. Took me all of five minutes and has been fine for a few months since

What is this running alcohol you speak of? Is it a West coast thing? Does it have legs? Can you drink it? Does it only come in little size or can you get multiple sizes?

My phone screen developed a teenie tiny purple spot below the power button 2 weeks ago that that has now grown and grown to the point that there is a purple band from the camera arcing down to about an inch from the bottom right. The purple band is about 1/2 inch wide, and everything inside the band is a washed out grey, and you can see MASSIVE ghosting and burn in in that area. I bought my phone outright for $599 from Walmart months ago. What can I do??! Is there a fix for this? What causes it? Please help. I can almost not read things in the upper right. Its getting worse by the day.

If the opening flash(brown gradient) on your "XDA premium" has diagonal stripes, you have the problem, I guess.

OK so recently my phone has not woken up from when it is unlocked. I've tried waiting and I've tried pressing it harder, multiple times etc, but nothing happens. I just end up resorting to a battery pull. This has just been starting this past week. I am running stock gingerbread no root. Should I be concerned? Has anyone else experienced this with their note?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
i guess no one else has this issue?
If you are running stock without root and you have this issue then you should be concerned. Does a battery pull fix it? Do you have some memory hogging apps running in the background? Have you tried a factory reset? All else fails contact ATT for a replacement.

Hey guys so I got my N2 yesterday and I'm loving it so far!
I have already rooted, unlocked and put a custom rom on, but I think this was happening out of the box as well.... Does anyone else get a delay when you press the power or home button to wake up the phone? I usually press the button and then the screen will come on about a second later.
Is this normal? Thanks!

To fix it try to turn off all the extra features under the lock screen settings. Ripple, wake up commands, etc.

I would rather wait a quick second to unlock the phone than run a UI that feels like a 400 pound person is sitting on it.

It's just a small delay. When I press the power button it will take a quick second for the screen to come on so I can unlock the phone.

this is how all the notes i've used have been.
This is a common occurrence; press the power button and it takes a second or so for the screen to come on (whereas on most phones it would be instantaneous). I have seen many people say that they have this issue. I have it as well. I had it on stock and I have it on Beans v3. It would seem that it is just a quirk of the phone.

Ok thanks guys for the responses! I'm assuming that this can be easily fixed with a software update right? It's not a big deal either way but I just wanted to make sure that it was normal.

I have read something on this. I am a little vague on it and need to find the thread again, because I have this as well. I have been too lazy to fix it.
I believe is has something to do with a double click option. When you press the power or home button to wake it up it waits a brief second in case another click comes. If you turn off this feature it will wake faster.
I could be way wrong but I think I read about it a while back.

Are you talking about S-Voice where you double tap the home button and it comes up?
So my button keeps sticking. I can't fix it I fail...
Anyways my phone has a couple scratches on the side because I dropped it once. The screenis clean woth no scratches at all since it had a screen protector the whole time.. do you you think samsung will cover it under warranty?
I can't see any reason why they wouldn't.
