When I leave my galaxy player 5 (international) plugged during the night the screen wakes up at some point which forces me to leave it with the screen down (when I remember), I would guess that happens when the battery full notification comes up.
That anoys me specially because sometimes the screen doesn't seem to follow the screen timeout settings and stays always on. It used to happen in stock froyo and still happens in eryigit gingerbread rom.
Does that happen to anyone else? Any tips?
I have the US version and when it finishes charging the screen stays on for about 3 minutes before turning off (I actually waited to see what would happen). I think it's a bug because my default settings is a minute. Try using different timeouts to see if that solves anything.
weird and terribly disappointing. Once in atleast 15 unlocks, when I press the power/wake button, screen just doesnt respond. I try to swipe, but no response. But when I press wake button to turn off screen and press it again, theres no issues. This happens only during unlocking screen. Did anyone face this issue?
rest all is good..no lag..once unlocked phone works perfectly...no lag..no getting stuck..again, let me tell u this issue happens once in 15-20 lock/unlocks.
I think I have the same issue as you, but in case I don't I will post what I am seeing on my device.
In about the same frequency, say once in every 15 unlocks from phone sleeping, the screen will come on but will be completely unresponsive. Doesn't matter if it is swipe unlock or pin code etc, there is no response to touch input on the screen. In fact, I think the screen is just frozen or the operating system is causing the lock screen to hang.
If the lock screen is hanging, pressing power will:
(a) sometimes make the phone sleep again
(b) make the phone screen kind of glitch/blip and then it takes input again
(c) does nothing and the screen remains on and hung/frozen
Occasionally mashing both the volume key and power key will help fix it, but usually if it is completely stuck I have to do a hard reset (holding HOME+VOL UP+POWER and then selecting reboot from the menu).
Now - I think this could be an app, but not sure.
When I first got the phone, set it up with my Google account etc, it went ahead and downloaded ALL the apps I had installed on my previous phone (HTC Sensation running Android ICS). So if it is an app, it is having issues with this phone, not the OS, imo.
I uninstalled all those automatically downloaded apps, and used the phone for a bit without my normal stuff installed. Then started installing apps singularly.
I think it is either Facebook or Alarm Clock Xtreme. The latter makes more sense given it would be polling the system to find out when to go off, so it is doing more in the background I would expect than Facebook or any other non-system app.
Other apps I have installed/running:
Swiftkey X
3G watchdog
Dolphin Browser HD
ES File Explorer
Winamp (locks without this running or running at all in lock screen mode, so that is not the issue)
Real Calc
Google Drive
Facebook
Alarm Clock Xtreme
It is quite frustrating for a brand new phone to have these issues. Not sure if it is hardware related, and if it is, I want to find out soon so I can take it back to carrier within their 28day device swap RMA period.
Thoughts?
So others may try to help or identify the possible cause / fix .......
What is your firmware version?
Are you rooted, custom ROMs or Mods etc?
Stock ROM,Baseband : XXLE8. Build No :XXALE9.
But my screen responds after i press wake button again. You are right seems to be issue with the app. i will just compare your apps and below are the ones which are common between us.
Facebook
3G watchdog
Dolphin Browser HD --i never use
Google Drive
a fix that worked for me
Steps to the solution that worked for me (so far) were to uninstall:
1. Alarm Clock Extreme (no noticeable result but I wasn't needing that application anyway)
2. I had WIFI Fixer installed because of the problems I experienced with the WIFI connectivity on my Galaxy S3.
I disabled that application and problems seemed to go away for a time, but every so in a while they resurfaced. Much less often than before, though.
I was still stuck with my WIFI problem anyway, so I looked into solutions for that problem and since I could not find a workable solution I uninstalled Wifi Fixer and started tweaking my WIFI settings.
While doing that I noticed that disabling "Network Notification" under the Settings -> WIFI -> Advanced tab fixed both my problems.
Now I can't be 100% sure this solution works for all, but I am pretty sure the application that created the problem was "WIFI Fixer".
It's been more than 4 hours now without the "disabled unlock screen from hell", and I’m very happy.
LOOOL
Actually...
My WIFI problem was not solved.... but I found a solution on another forum , which you can read below:
I dialed *#0011# then pressed menu button, then selected WIFI, and pressed the button to turn off the "WIFI power save mode". Hit back until I was back in the homescreen. WIFI has worked to my satisfaction ever since.
This is not a solution, this is a work-around....
It will remove the standby wifi.... My phone was at 0% battery in one night... But actually yes, the phone doesn't hang up when unlocking.
Someone who had replaced the phone could tell me if the problem is solved with a new one ?

This looks like a bug from wifi, i had the same problem and i found a fix:
On the dialer type: *#0011#
Then press menu -> wifi, there is a button ON ( power saving or something ), change it to OFF.
let me know if it solves ur problem
It worked!!

This worked for me!!! Thank you!! I was about to take a hammer to this phone! :good:
I seem to have another problem. When unlocking the phone the screen turns on in a quite ok amount of time, but then when I touch it immediatelly after it turns on it doesn't react to touch. This moment when touch is not working is getting longer and longer depending on how long the system is running, anybody else sees this?

Not sure what ROM and kernel you are using, but at a big guess, try reflash another kernel or with less aggressive settings.

hey guys. I have a problem with my s3's lock screen similar to the described. whenever I press the power button to unlock, it takes 2 second for the screen to turn on. Anyone got any ideas on that?
I am unable to see any music files on music players such as Google Play, Apollo and the RR music app. Since all these apps scan for files automatically (supposedly), there isnt a manual option to add files into their libraries. How can I get the music apps to show the music files?

Phone won't wake up from sleep
I had this problem with rr 3.0.6 and was hoping that 3.8 would fix it but not luck. Basically whenever I leave my phone unused for a long time and try to wake it up by either pressing the home button or the power button the phone won't wake up. I can tell that it's on as the proximity sensor glows a faint red. The only way to wake the phone up is to restart it. However it takes a long time to shut it down. I have to hold the power button for a while as the phone is completely unresponsive. The problem was really severe at first and my phone would think the battery is empty until I restart it. I cleared the battery stats in recovery mode and now it happens less frequently. I use my phone as an alarm clock and the phone goes unresponsive over night so its a bit of problem. Any ideas on how to fix this or is there anyone else having this issue?

You use wipe Data when you install 3.8?, maybe you need return to stock ICS using ODIN

messaging notification problem
i dont seem to get any notification alerts for my messaging app in version 3.8 even after i have checked to display notifications in status bar. how do i solve this?
I am unable to wake the phone during a call. As soon as I answer a call, or press the call button my screen turns off. I can not wake it with proximity sensor, double tap or power button. There is literally no way to turn on the screen once a call has started. It was random when it started. I had been using Vanir for a while and then one day it started on my phone, and never left. I have even flashed my OG nandroid stock and the issue was present there after flashing to that.
I have swapped ROMs, AOSP x4, BarRin, Stock, you name it, but to no avail. I have cleared everything off my internal, wiped the internal memory, sideloaded a ROM back from scratch and booted up plain jane... same issue.
I am attaching a link to a logcat incase anybody has any ideas. I'm simply lost with this, and it is a major issue considering every time I make a call I have to be ready to take the case off so that I have faster access to pop the back off and battery pull. This is not a way to live.
PLEASE if someone has any ideas on how/where to go about fixing this, I will be grateful.
Not sure if it matters, but after a call ends, I need to wait about 5 or secs before the power button will be recognized. After it's first press it seems to first power off the screen, as though it is awake the whole time, but black and inoperable. After the screen thinks it's off, the second press turns it back on. I have also tried other dialers too, but it totally seems like an integrated OS/Firmware issue at this point.
Are you by chance running Greenify? I was having some issues when sleeping system apps. What Xposed modules are you currently running?
No battery apps installed whatsoever. No battery saving modes enabled.
Mods- App Settings

Sorry a bit tired. I just noticed you stated it still happens after you nandroid back to your previous backup. Do you have a screen protector or anything on it?
Try going to Settings/Call and disable the proximity sensor and see if you have the same results
It's not the sensor though b/c it has 0 results with the double tap to wake and also the power hardware button itself. Holding the button, pressing it quickly, tap it multiple times in a row. Additionally, I do not have a screen protector.
Firstly I wanted to clarify one thing that my phone worked okay after the update. I didn't realise it has updated until after a boot loop.
Just FYI The camera in my phone have been crashing randomly when taking pics and the pics weren't having the full resolution. It was 1280x720. This wasn't an issue for me and I ignored it for like 3-4 months.
So my redmi note 10 have had some random reboot issues lately which i didn't give much attention to. It wasn't frequent just rare random reboots. Few days back I noticed my phone rebooting while in use and it started to loop for a few times and when it loaded into lockscreen right after unlocking, the power button started to press automatically triggering the power option screen and then the emergency calls as well. It stopped after a few taps on the power button.
A day or two later it rebooted once again while the recorder was on and and this time it boot looped a few times and showed the lockscreen and crashed booting back once again. A few tries after that it booted up and I was able to use it for another day.
The very next day, it did the same. Started to boot and loop once again. But this time when the battery is sufficient enough or the phones cool and haven't been used for a while, it boots into lockscreen but freezes and crashes. At one occasion, it stayed just a few more seconds long enough to open the passcode screen but crashes before I could type anything. Then it loops once again and before even reaching the lockscreen, boots back into MI Android Powered screen right after the three dots blinking page. And randomly it boots into lockscreen as well. But once the battery is down or the phone is heated enough, it barely goes into lockscreen.
Booting into safe mode also shows the same. It sometimes boots into lockscreen but doesn't show the 'safe mode' text in the bottom.
Right now when I had kept my phone off for a while it booted into lockscreen twice and the screen dims immediately before freezing and crashing.
The third time it just went back to the MI Android powered logo right after the three dots blinking screen.
Guys please let me know do you think this is a hardware issue or a corrupt software update?
I know software update issue can cause bootloop but does it reach till the lockscreen? My phone consistently gets into the lockscreen when the battery is sufficient or the phones cool enough.
What last update did you perform?

MIUI 14 which i didn't even realise until I checked the settings app one day after a boot issue
What version do you have?
For me see screenshot, works fine!
Backup your data and clean flash with Mi Flash Tool, you can then exclude any software problem
This issue have been resolved.
The issue was the CPU couldn't handle the heat once the device turned on and would reboot right after reaching the lockscreen and loops.
Thank you for all your suggestions, though.

Phone get hotter also...
Is it related to bug?
