Hi,
I have a problem. When the keyboard (keypad) is locked and the phone reminds me task, negotiation or alarm, the display backlight is weak. Information on the display is unreadable. When somebody calls to me, the backlight of caller ID is OK. In the settings is not option to change it. I have also HTC Touch Dual without this problem.
Can someone hep me? Please
Tomas
Try pressing a button so the light would turn on.
Thank you. But it dos not work:-(
Hey,
I've put the backlight time out on battery on 30 seconds and display time out on 'never'. But when I lock my phone these values are the same, which means that the display will never totally time out when locked...
Is there an option that the display of the locked phone will totally time out independently of the standards of the unlocked phone?
Because I had the s730 and this phone automatic times out the display when locked after 5 seconds...
BACKLIGHT trouble
please help me...iam new in this forum...i have o2 xda atom...n now have trouble in backlight when locked..n if want to use must hard reset...please help me...iam not good in english
Hey there,
im using the latest energy rom and when the phone is on standby with the display off ANY key I press switches it on.
I already set in the settings that only power-button switches on the display but it doesnt work somehow.
Is this a common problem with the HD2 (I have it now for 1 day) or is it rom related? Any fix for this?
Greetings HH
edit:
couldnt find proper search results, thats why im asking
Is there any way to change a setting or something so that the phone never locks by itself? I hate when I leave my phone sitting for a moment and then it locks by itself.
Also, when the phone is locked and then you press the home button, the screen stays on for ages - is there any way to change it so that it only stays on for 5 or 10 seconds (like an iPhone)?
Cheers
You should be able to go into settings/personal password (or similar) & set "screen unlock security" to none/disable personal password security.
Yes. Get an iPhone (You walked into that one). In all seriousness, it's been a while since I've run stock on my phone, but from memory you *should* (not 100% sure tho) set the screen timeout in the display settings to 15 seconds or similar.
Hmm there was no setting there... I've already got lock screen turned off but that doesn't make a difference..
Is there a way to do it with a custom ROM? I need to get a deodexed ROM anyway so I can run Jkay's theme.. any suggestions of which ROM to run?
In hyperdroid there is an option to change how soon the lockscreen activates after the screen turns itself off via screen timeout, as apposed to when you turn the screen off via pressing the power button.
This may also be the case in newer stock roms, I am not sure.
Its in
Settings > Timeout (Under "Screen unlock settings")
Also in
Settings > Display you can change the scree timeout delay (aka how fast it auto turns off)
just put a long cooldown on the lock? swiping of an image is not that bad is it?
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?
My lockscreen is no longer working and I have no idea why. I have a 2 min. screen timeout but when I wake up the Nook with the "N" button the screen is already unlocked (I do not have the selection checked that uses this button to unlock). It used to work fine but then more or less stopped. I've tried all kinds of combinations of settings. Sometimes it will work once after changes, but then it stops again.
I've just discovered I can manually lock the screen with a quick press of the power button. That works every time but is sort of beside the point. It should (used to) lock automatically when the screen goes off after 2 min.
And...what exactly are the "screen timeout modes"? Each of the two consists of 3 time intervals but there is no explanation or description of what they are/do. Originally they were unselected and I just had the 2 min timeout. So are these deepening levels of power saving (dim, off, sleep)?
I wish there were some kind of reference for the CM settings. It would really help a noob like me
