After switching to LineageOS 14.1, my Samsung S3 i9300 randomly turns off. Not a proper shutdown, screen just goes black.
Happened 7 times in 2 days so far, first time while I was tinkering with the settings, second time while I was swiping to another page in Nova Launcher, third time while I was asleep last night, woke up and discovered my phone was off. The other shutdowns happened while the phone was locked.
The device does not shut down completely. I can see the Samsung Led flashing for the message notifications. Just the display turns off. I have to go into recovery mode and reboot the system from there to get the display working again.
I came from the stock ROM. It started immediately after flashing Lineage.
If this happens on a stock rom, it is probably a hardware issue.

Thank you for your reply, but this does not happen on the stock rom.
It's definitely good that this doesn't happen in stock.
Sounds like a incompatibility between the phone and rom. Have you tried earlier or later versions of lineage?
All custom roms are considered beta. You will encounter issues. The issues should be in a list on the website/dev forum for the developers.

I can also confirm this on the latest lineageos nightly update to date. It's as if phone is on standby/sleep and no way to wake it up without rebooting the phone by holding down the power button until phone restarts. I don't need to go into recovery like OP. Anyone else?
Are we the only ones experiencing this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm feeling bad for you guys. Everyone should get the same beautiful LOS experience.
Thank you @Gizmotech for the last_kmsg. I think that you removed the battery to be able to reboot your phone. If you received a notification (sometimes you will receive it but it will freeze before letting you know that you got a notification) then the kernel will freeze. If the kernel is freezing it's because of root or a failed attempt to remove root (even if it said that it was a successful removal). It's very simple: you get a notification and it freezes. Maybe it will give a sound and the LED light maybe not. What's sure is that the kernel will freeze. Lastest SuperSU has this issue fixed. If you want it working then dirty flash latest build again. Tell me if the issue was fixed and avoid root until that time. After you'll tell me the results you can flash latest SuperSU and tell me again what happened. Do not remove root. This is always a dangerous thing.

Providing the last_kmsg will help Simon to find a solution. If you only complain about this issue then it won't be solved. Next time make sure to include last_kmsg.

Really? Do you know what beta means? I'm sure that you don't. Beta means that it is not really stable (80% or less of the things are working) while stable means that 95% of the things are working. This explains why LOS 14.1 for S6 was considered stable: because everything was working. Also that issues are already listed in the forums.

Same problem with last lineage version. Are you found solution ?
Any news on this? g9305 boots just fine but reboots after a few seconds / minutes.

The problem is the rom or kernel. It happens to all custom roms and kernels on the s3. No-one has found the source of the problem.
Everything custom is beta even if it is considered stable. Beta means "not final". Unless you see a rom with "final" on it then you'll encounter issues at some point.
The only truly final product if you want root is stock rom rooted. If you flash a kernel you'll get the same problem.

Hi everyone
Last night, when i plugged my usb charger to my S3 since it was drained, my phone suddenly turns on without hitting the power button,
I tried turning it off, then plugged again, the Grey battery icon with progress showed but then i was hoping to see the battery icon with green color (the usual icon when it is charging) instead it turned on.
I tried, installing stock rom, Official one, and everything is ok, phone doesnt turn on
Tried clearing cache and dalvik, same turning on happened
Tried installing a fresh ROM, still it turned on after plugged in
Can you help me guys... It doesnt affect my phone, but its quite annoying.
Thanks guys

Simple, expand notification bar, then switch to rapid settings screen, here you find offline/airplane mode(depends on translation), the one with the airplane icon, after you enabled this all networks(cell net. Wifi bt ecc...) will be shut down, you can re enable wifi if u want to surf web , i suggest you to reboot the phone sometime(one every 1 or 2 days).

That is not true. I have never experienced such an issue on any rom I have flashed, I also did a quick search here on xda and cannot find anyone else with this problem.
@cgren
Does this only happen on one specific rom?
Since it does not happen in stock it might be an option in the rom/kernel you have chosen but since you have given no information I cannot check for you.

For several days, i have tried number of AOSP and Samsung based custom roms 4.4.X it same thing happens.
But on Official Samsung Roms Everything is ok.
No biggie. As long as it doesnt affect my phone's performance its fine with me. :victory:
Hello!
I have problem with 4.4.4 roms. Phone works normally, then suddenly normal calls do not work. I can answer and decline the call but no audio comes trough and also the receiving end can not hear me.
After reboot everything works again, then passes hour maybe two and then dead again.
Works ok, with stock rom.
Any recommendations, how to fix this problem?
(also offtopic problem, screen does not always turn on when pressing the lock button, i have to smash couple of times. I found that you had to turn up the lowest cpu clock speed - did that- did not help)

On your wake lock issue, its the governor you need to adjust. I think its ondemand, but try your options. Your phone issue.....first many may ask is, did you flash clean?
You can always try flashing ROM twice. Because you can get 2 different reactions to 2 separate flashes, I always flash ROM twice, then gapps and so forth.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Yes, I always do a clean flash. I will try to flash it twice, lets see what happens.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Hello all,
Last week, I broke my oneplus one's screen so I decided to try and revive an old oneplus X.
A month ago, this device was still running the latest available OxygenOS but I played around with the device at the time and decided to install Lineage 14.1. I used the following versions of TWRP and LineageOS:
- LineageOS-14.1 20181110-nightly-onyx-signed (was no longer available on the official LineageOS site)
- TWRP version 3.3.1-0-onyx
After installing LineageOS 14.1, I noticed that there were some glitches when using the phone and the UI would lagg very hard sometimes. Since my Oneplus One was still working fine at the time, I decided to not troubleshoot this any further and put the device away.
Unfortunately, last week I dropped my Oneplus One and broke its screen, so I immediately tried to fix the Oneplus X again. I figured this might have been an issue with the LineageOS 14.1 ROM so I browsed this forum for an android 9 build and found the builds by YumeMichi and by psychem.
First, I booted into TWRP and performed an advanced wipe with every option selected.
Then, I installed Yume's build using the latest version of the ROM and Yume's version of TWRP: "twrp-3.2.3-20190127-onyx".
This booted fine and looked very promising at first, however the glitching/lagging returned after a few hours of use.
Then I cleared everything again and tried psychem's version (11.08.2019 build, without MicroG). I did not change the TWRP version (still using Yume's TWRP). This would not boot but I solved that by flashing Yume's build again and then dirty flashing psychem's build on top of it. That worked fine, untill after a few hours, the lagging and glitching returned.
The past week I've been playing with the power settings and trying to find someone with a similar issue on google. No luck, unfortunately.
The, on 22/08, I noticed psychem released a new build (22.08.2019). I installed that one and at the same time enabled the option "Force use of GPU for 2D rendering" in the developer options. That seemed to do the trick. I was able to use the device for 2 days without any issues, until the glitching happened again yesterday evening.
Today I installed the 23.08.2019 build but that did not solve the issue unfortunately.
To clarify what I mean by glitching/lagging: the phone seems to work fine for 90% of the time. Everything works, the device is performing smoothly and the battely lasts more than a day, awesome.
But sometimes, the screen starts glitching, the interface is extremely laggy and the phone might even randomly reboot. This phone will then be glitchy/laggy andis unusable for an hour. Rebooting does not help, clearing caches does not help, ... The wierd thing is, the same behaviour is also present within the TWRP interface at that moment (so not only once android has booted), as you can see in this video I made. It as also present during the boot phase. But, after a certain amount of time (usually 20-60 minutes), all is fine again and the phone works perfectly.
Is there any change this is not a hardware issue and I might be able to save this phone? The only reason why I think this might not be a hardware issue is because the phone runs fine 90% of the time.
Thanks in advance!
latest build is the 23.08 build.
Try this Nougat RR 5.8.5, works great for me, no lags at all.

Thank you. I installed this one, however that did not solve the issue.
I am inclined to believe this might not be related to the ROM at all, since all the LineageOS 14.1 ROM and Yume's ROM also had the same issue and also the issue is present in the TWRP interface and during the boot cycle too.
Is there any driver/firmware/software/... that might be causing this instead of a hardware issue?
My experience with what you are describing leads me to believe one of three things may be causing this. Double tap to sleep on lockscreen enabled, Gboard and Chrome.
Try this, enable software button and disable hardware buttons and see if this resolved your issue. If so ... Toggling software buttons from time to time helps.
AOKP is the only rom this does not happen as well as OOS of course.

Thanks for the suggestions! I do not have Chrome and Gboard installed so that should be fine, but I have disabled the double tap to sleep/double tap to wake option yesterday. Since then I've not experienced any more glitching/lagging. If it returns I will disable the HW buttons and use on-screen buttons and report back.
Unfortunately, none of these options worked. The glitching and lagging is still there and is becoming more frequent.
Any chance I'm missing something?

To put your mind at ease, try OOS and see if it occurs. Then you'll know for sure.
Edit: just saw your video, never seen that before.
When my phone locks by being idle or just because I press the power botton I can't get it back unless I tap volume- and power key. This happens to me in three different ROMs by different developers. It happens on Lineage OS, AEX Aosp extended and Crdroid and the weird thing is that this happened since April 9, before that i could use those ROMs without any problem, it doesn't happens when I use a Samsung based ROM. Why not use one that's alredy working? because it makes the phone very slow, lets faced this phone without a Aosp rom is not worth using. I have clean flashed every ROM and even not restored my data and as soon as I lock the phone it's the same.
I am having the same problem here have you solved it?

Not yet, its the same with all that ROMs as I explained and it looks like the thread is no longer active.
Anyone else experiencing this? Less than 10 seconds after I fingerprint unlock, sometimes the screen will go black while I'm reading a message or whatever. Other times it seems to be triggered by a touch action, like pressing on an icon or clearing a notification.
I found no setting that explains it. Screen timeout is set to 1 minute. I don't have any third party lockscreen or display related apps. It's been happening for as long as I can remember with this phone, and I thought the January update might fix it but it persisted through. Faulty proximity sensor maybe? I'm starting to contemplate warranty servicing.

I think it's A12. On the P5 you could look at the device and it would stay on when doing something. The feature, although there is a setting on/off, does not work any longer. I never had it on the P6 shipped with A12 but on the P5 my wife has the same problems since updating. So perhaps a proximity update will fix it but if all else is working the replacement will almost guaranteed be worse.

Are you using a custom kernel or have had a custom kernel installed in the past?
If so, you will need to try a factory reset and complete full stock image.

I saw that setting but I don't see how it's relevant. Even without that setting, the display should not turn off on its own before 1 minute of inactivity.

No. I didn't do any modding beyond bootloader unlock and root with Magisk. I flashed the January factory image a few days ago and rerooted, but as I said the problem started long before that.

I didn't realize you were rooted, I usually don't read signatures. Have you unrooted and tested? Other than that I'm not rooted so perhaps someone can help you out. Maybe change the title of the thread so rooted folks will jump in with suggestions. Good luck.
Looks like the issue might have come from the launcher I use, Smart Launcher. Specifically a setting called "Smart Screen Off" that's not working as intended. I turned that off and so far I can't reproduce the issue.
