Anyone have issues with a delay when turning on the screen. It happens when using either the power button or double tap. Sometimes it will come on right away but most of the time there is a delay. Sometimes the delay is 2 seconds or more, but usually around a second.

Does anyone know if it's possible to turn off the display while in a call? On my HTC Touch Pro I was able to just press the power button to achieve this - but on the Hero the power button is also the hang up button.
Any ideas?
Actually it's supposed to turn off automatically.
IMO the problem isn't turning the screen off during a call, it's turning it back on when needed.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I agree completely... Is an annoying issue that display go away on call because if you need something, ie keyboard or see call duration you need to do something for have it back.
Why not try this app, which you shake to wake the screen - not tired it myself but worth a go
Shake Awake
If the screen goes blank during a call you can simply press the menu button to wake up the screen again. Just tested that and it works fine.
Still, it would be nice to be able to turn it off when I want and not have to wait for it to time out to switch the display off.
You can also press the answer button to wake screen while in a call.
As to shake-it-to-wake-it, with the non-stick coating on the device I would probably be likely to launch it out of my hand !!! haha
Sprint Hero
I just picked up a Spring HTC Hero this weekend and am finding the same problem. When I place the phone up to my ear the screen does not shut off. However since the end button is also the same button used to turn off the screen, I'm in a catch 22.
For now I have to wait for the screen to time out. Turning the screen back on is not an issue as many have mentioned.
Anybody experienced about 1/2 to a second delay on screen wake up from pushing the power button after screen has been off for at least 2 mins or so?
Your inputs are very much appreciated!!
So this just started a couple of days ago. When I press my lock button to wake my phone up, I now have to wait 1-2 seconds before I can enter my unlock pattern. The screen lights up, but I watched it and it will light up a little bit more after that 1-2 seconds and THEN I can enter my pattern to unlock my phone. I mean, it doesn't hinder my phone's performance after I unlock it, it's just kind of annoying that I can't enter my pattern right away. The same thing happens after I pull the phone away from my ear after a call, I can't pretty the "end call" button until 1-2 seconds after the screen illuminates. Anybody ever heard of this?
Is it just me, or does it lag a little too much from the time you hit the power button to the time the screen actually turns on.
I don't recall my Nexus 7 ever having that hesitation. It's not like I have anything extra on my lock screen.
I notice this whenever I'm holding my N10 in a different orientation than what it was when the screen was last on (if I was in landscape, then the screen goes off, and then I try to wake it while holding it in portrait)
Same here. This is the only time there is any lag on wake.
I had a problem with mine where I would press the power button to bring it out of sleep. The display would come on for a split second and disappear for around 20 seconds before coming back again. Turns out it was LightFlow (notification light colour selector) playing up. After I uninstalled it, I didn't have any issues.
Ok, so lately I've noticed when I've had to call a few numbers that need me to Press 1, 2, 3 etc on the dialpad that I can't do it right away. When I put the phone to my ear, as I would expect the screen switches itself off. When I pull the phone away from my face the screen comes on again immediately, but there's about a 5-7 second delay before I can actually press anything. In those seconds after the screen comes on, it wont accept any touch input whatsoever. It's not delayed, presses I make during those seconds just aren't registered at all, then suddenly it begins accepting input as normal. It isn't just number keys either, it's the entire screen, so I can't press End Call until nearly 10 seconds after I've actually pulled the phone away from my face, nor can I move the phone away and press the Speaker Phone button quickly.
This only happens when the screen comes on after being against my face though. If the screen is just turned off and I press the power button, or double tap to wake, it accepts input immediately, so I don't believe it's a hardware problem.
Currently running 4.4.4 rooted, image was made from stock and pre-rooted prior to being flashed onto the phone.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
yeah i've experienced this as well. doesn't happen on speaker though.
No, doesn't happen on speaker phone. If the screen goes off from that and I turn it back on then the screen responds immediately. It only seems to happen in cases where the screen auto shuts off due to it detecting that it's against your face.
