I own an LG K7, and every so often, the screen will lock up. Its not that the phone freezes, its just that the touch input just stops working. I could be watching a video, and the video will still play, I just wont be able to touch anything on the screen. The only fix, however temporary, is turning the display off and then back on. I have tried factory resetting, I have tried clearing my cache, etc. I can't seem to find a permanent fix. Could someone help me?

Is any one else having this issue. It's in multiple ROM's , and not only when watching video, but can happen at any time, any game, etc.
The tablet will just go blank and i have to reboot it to get it working again.
I have tried upping the minimum clock setting to see if maybe that's it, but that didn't seem to fix it either.
Any ideas? would love to be able to use my tablet without it having to be rebooted often to do basic stuff.
thanks for your help.
I installed CM7 and "knock on wood" have been able to keep the tablet from doing it's weird blank shut down issue. Have even watched video's i have not been able to watch up to this point.
Hello
I have my S3 since it was launched and worked perfectly until now.
Since 3 days it started to freeze, a very strange kind of "freeze". If have all off (wireless, 3G, sync etc) works perfect, no problems, any offline app works and games.
I turn on wireless or 3G, I go to google maps... after a while it freezes, I just turn on sync, after a while it freezes too... any internet activity after a while freezes the phone... it's impossible to use it, since it's freezing every time.
The freeze is strange, if it does while I am using the phone, the graphics are still on and working, the lights turn on when I touch the phone but no response, solution: reboot only.
If it freezes while I have the screen off, of course, it's like a brick... reboot also
I tried a hard reset, factory reset, changed rom, cleaned internal memory and hard reset and still the same problem.
Any possible solution without having to return the phone?

Hello everybody,
since a few weeks i am facing problems which make my phone nearly unuseable. When i lock the screen, it will reboot or simply turn off in about 1-2 minutes.
I figured if i let the device play music with a music app like spotify, and lock the screen, it wont turn off or reboot. Since that i need to have headphones plugged in and play music 24/7 to keep the phone alive.
I tryed flashing a new kernel, new and old roms (CM and Paranoid), i cleared dalvik, cache and tryed factory resets, nothing works. No matter what the device is running, when in sleep, it will reboot or shut down.
Hopefully someone knows how to solve this problem, allthough i do not hope anyone else is facing this problems!
Best regards,
Philipp
after exchanging my phone due to the reboot problem, im encountering a new problem
my screen sometimes turns on by itself, and if i try to operate it at that point, the screen will turn black and nothing is functional except for the soft buttons and the pull down menu, only restart will solve this
sometimes it will also just crash to black even without the screen turning on by itself scenario
does anyone have the same issue? i suspect this is a software problem
I just got the z5 last night, and experienced the same problem this morning. Turns out that if you give the power button a 'double click', the screen comes back on. So this solves the problem reported above.
HOWEVER, there must be a setting (I hope) which we can change, I find it very irritating that as soon as I make a call, the screen goes blank, and you have to double-click the power button to see what is happening. If anyone knows about such a setting, please let us know!
My screen went black about an hour ago.
After Hotspotting for 40ish minutes so I could use my iPhone on the way to work on the train, I tried to check this forum with my Z5C, the back of it was really hot & after a few minutes, the screen went black & the phone was unresponsive for around 20 seconds & then basically unusable once it came back on, for another 20ish seconds, due to lag.

Did you ever find a resolution for this? it is driving me crazy, I've tried factory resets, software repairs via the Sony Companion and this still occurs, sometimes it won't happen for a week then sometimes it happens multiple times in a row even straight after a reboot. The fix that RohitMayor describes does not work on my device. This phone is really terrible compared to the Z3 Compact
I have the same issue. This pb occurs since i have update my phone to 6.0.1...
Any solution ?
Anyone else experiencing lag on their g5 mine continually struggles to wake sometime needing a good thirty seconds to spring to life?
Also the you tube app continually stutters and freezes up the phone whether connected to fibre broadband or 4g?

Yes, I actually made a solution for it in the Questions forum, but nobody else seemed to have the issue or care. I found that the wake lag occurs when you try to wake too soon after locking.
I found a very strange solution, but it works: Everytime your phone turns on from being off, you must change your lockscreen wallpaper. This can be to anything. You can even set the same one again. This process has to be repeated at every boot, but it completely solved the issue on my Verizon G5.
To test it out, just lock your screen and double tap to unlock immediately. Shouldn't be lag.

Have you also had the problem with the you tube app? I'm Also finding a lot of other apps crash resulting in an error report and restart of the app?

No I haven't, sorry! You may need a factory reset or could have downloaded a bad app, not totally sure.
