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?
Basically I start up my phone from it dying last night and I have some weird and terrible lock screen that after doing some searching I've found it's something to do with Google Now.
Anyone able to help me to get rid of this and go back to my old lock screen that is actually nice to use?
Thanks.
Attachment is not a screen from my phone but is the exact thing I'm on about.
Settings -> Lock screen options
Tried the settings, there seems to be nothing about it whatsoever >_>
Hi Friends,
I am facing a very strange issue. Whenever I swipe unlock my mmx 116, the screen keeps on flickering for 2-3 seconds.
The best/worst part is that post 3 seconds it becomes normal while doing any task in phone.
As soon as I lock the phone and unlock, it starts again. Its really irritating.
Does any one face the same issue. Is there any solution available ???
Please help.
Thanks & Regards,
Naresh Mahbubani.
There is a lag on the lock screen of my oneplus X. After swiping the screen I have to wait around 5 seconds to get my numpad. But after unlocking the device, it works smoothly. Somebody please help me on this issue. Sorry about my English.
Same here
same problem here
i have not been able to solve it yet
It occurs once in 100 unlocks and only when I directly double tap whatsapp lock notification.
Problem:
Realme 3 pro screen goes black and touch doesn't work while watching video at Facebook, Instagram or any other platform, once the screen turns black it doesn't come back until formatted completely. Even when lock screen button is pressed or a call is attended and screen turns black it just completely goes black and touch doesn't work.
What I tried already:
1. Software is updated to latest.
2. Panel changed but didn't help.
3. Battery changed but didn't help.
4. Formatting the mobile from safe mode brings back the screen and it's operable until the next blackout.
5. Set the screen timeout timer to 30 minutes so it doesn't go black.
Any sort of help will be greatly appreciated as I am stuck with this phone in this quarantine. I am available to provide more information all the time. Thank you in advance.

Sadly, No. I had to take it to the realme service center and they said the whole motherboard would be changed so, I just left the phone at peace in the cupboard. You may try your luck, I hope things turn out better for you.
