So I can't post in the developer section yet but, I have noticed a problem since flashing to the EC10 kernel. If I have messaging open and in a message if I hit the power button to put the phone e to sleep it crashes and reboots.
I was running, Super Clean 2.9, DL09, EB16, no voodoo
I wiped all data, cache and dalvik cache, then using clockwork flashed the kernel then super clean again.
Now I'm running SuperClean 2.9, DL09, EC10, no voodoo and have the problem?
I'm going to try and reflash everything tonight, just wondering if anyone else expierenced this? I can repeat the problem over and over so its not just a random fluke.
*edit*
So I can crash the phone about 75% of the time, sometimes usually by trying to put the phone to sleep with a program open.
*edit*
So after deleting that particular conversation the problem no longer occurs. Not sure what the deal was.
Im thinking it had something to do with a mms file you recieved or sent

So I spoke to soon, the problem occurs in other things besides messaging.
My phone crashed 20+ times today. I can pretty much cause it crash on purpose at this point. It will almost always crash if I try and put it to sleep without returning to the home screen before putting it to sleep, or before it puts itself to sleep. If I return to the home screen first it really doesn't do it. When it goes to sleep the menu, home, back, search buttons all light up, but the screen is off, if I'm on the phone or have music playing, that continues for 10-15 seconds, then the boot animation appears, and it has restarted.
I do have the log files to if that would help anyone?
I'm so relieved I'm not the only one experiencing this! I was beginning to think that my phone was physically broken or something.
Like Ohio I'm experiencing lots and lots of crashes and restarts when I hit the power button to turn the screen off and even sometimes when the screen goes off on its own, and this happens on SC2.9.2 for me, but I also think it was happening on AOSP with an EC10 kernel, though I'd written it off at the time as a fluke before it started happening every few minutes on SC.
I can make it crash very frequently by pressing the power button while I'm watching a Youtube video or if I am at the glass swipe lockscreen and I press the power button while holding the phone upside down to turn the screen off. Very strange. In addition, it also does it seemingly randomly throughout the day, and it actually did it again not 3 minutes ago for no reason at all as it was just on the homescreen.
I have no recollection of this ever happening before EC10, and I've tried multiple EC10 kernels with UV and standard voltage as well as multiple ROM installs after complete wipes, all of which produce similar results.
I don't know if it's related, but I've also been experiencing freezes where the screen stays on but becomes completely unresponsive, save for the touch keys which will still flash but not make the haptic feedback work. I have to do a battery pull to get it to work again. I can make THIS happen merely by browsing the Reddit Is Fun app for about five minutes, which it has never, ever done before, but I've also had it freeze up on me at other times as well, including two minutes after a SC install where I was just signing into the Market.
I'm going to go back to an EB kernel and see if things go a little better. Are there others out there having these issues with EC10?
I went back to Superclean 2.9.0 with its stock EB01 kernel, and I've had no more issues with the crashes and resets at screen off.

I'm not having these issues. Try to fix permissions and wipe the dalvik cache (under advanced in CWM).

Has anyone had any issue with the G Tablet shutting down after it goes to sleep? Right now I am running virtually stock (rooted with latest VS update). If I leave the tablet for 10 minutes the screen will shut off as expected, but when I try to wake it by hitting the power momentarily the tablet does nothing. If I press power for a few seconds the tablet boots up as it does from being completely shut down.
If I select sleep from the power off menu, I can wake it if I hit the power button or home button, but only if I do it within about 30 seconds. If I wait any longer, it seems to shutdown. I don't see any settings anywhere for this.
Other than this, everything else seems fine. About the only other thing I can think to mention is I did flash to tnt lite 2.02 and had to recover due to boot loops. I've reset, cleared data and cache, etc...
Thanks for any feedback.
Same happens to mine sometime. Currently running TNT 2.02
I've noticed this a few times also. I have no idea what's causing it. Fortunately, boot up is fast!
Same here
Not all the time, but close to half.
Plain vanilla not rooted.
mysterious fix
I had the similar problem where is shuts off half the time after pressing the sleep button. The symptom went away after installing the Miren browser. Can't explain it.
SH
This was happening to me and I tried many nvflashes and every rom so everything you can try. I exchanged mine today after a lot of research online and now for the first time it sleeps and wakes up. I am certain that there are just a few models that can not be fixed.
So happy to be able to hit the power button to have it wake up.
I recommend if you still can then exchange it for another.
My Malata Zpad does this sometimes too. I thought it was movement that did it, or the magnets on the case, but it looks to do it at random (or when something runs in the background?)
It used to do it 5-6 times a day, now that it's a week old it seems to do it maybe once or twice a day.
I am having the same problem. I do not remember this before the last update (3389).
The tablet is stock, not rooted.
I use the volume button to wake mine.
any one else having this problem? just got my g tablet today and it always shuts down when it goes to sleep
any way to fix it?
i was going to root it right away but hesitating now since it will void warranty - the shutdown after sleep is kinda annoying...thanks
Yeah I had similar issues under stock firmware but subsequent patches fixed the issue for me. Have yet tohave it happen on vegan or tnt lite roms.

Did you wipe to factory reset before going to vegan? Mine was doing that, but I never did factory wipe for subsequent vegan updates. Since I have done the clean install, never had this problem.
There are also several kernel updates which allows VPN, cifs, ntfs and other enhancement as well as higher fps.
Love my tablet.
well i only have the tablet for a few hours - and that was a problem out of the box
before installing anything i did the "wipe user data" option from the settings menue in the original/stock TnT - then logged in using Family name - and shut down to root (install CM/vegan ect)
i just downloaded and installed this: "1.0.0 Beta5.1 Link" - thats posted on the first post on the vegan thread
so didn't install any kernal updates or anything yet...if you can point me towards them and what to install i would really appreciate it - thanks
also seem to have a problem where no matter where on the homescreen i swipe down it pulls down the notification bar - any way to fix that?
my solution
I had the same problem out of the box as well. I tried using the Vegan rom with the same result. I went ahead and downloaded a free app called hibernate from the market. It puts it to sleep and allows me to wake it up like how its suppose to. As of now, it has yet to shutdown when asleep.
My ghetto fix til someone can truly id the problem with a proper solution. Hope this helps...

If you are running ADW launcher it is a "gestures" setting that can be changed in the ADW specific settings.
The ntofication bar problem was caused by adw ex launcher
Still having problems with the sleep mode thing, tried all thedelete user data and cashed deleting still no luck
Other then that I really love this tablet. So should I return it?

Mine too
I'm having this same problem....I find it hard to believe this is a "hardware" issue although I guess its possible. I'm running Vegan 5.1beta but it did it with the stock 3389 firmware too before I upgraded.
This issue is the only fatal flaw thus far I've run into, I'd love to get it resolved.

This is a "bump".
I just wanted to know if the folks with the original issue on this thread (gTab shutting down after sleep) tried my suggestion and if so did it fix the issue for them?
I had the same problem and it fixed it for me.
Scenario:
Was working on my Samsung Vibrant running Axura 2.0.5. As I was doing my regular thing, games, browsing, etc. I noticed that my home button got slower and slower to respond. By the time I was done, my home button didn't respond any more.
I turned on noise and haptic respond to see if the button was recognizing anything and it didn't. No confirmation that the button is being touched.
I cleared caches and did a factory restore, and still having the issue.
I flashed a new ROM, this time back to Macnut with stock JK2 Kernel.
Now I can use the home button ONLY when it is already lit. In other words I can not use the home button unless I do something else previously.
I read in other forums that other people had this issue initially with their phones when the phone came out but I haven't heard anyone having this issue after 4+ months of use of the phone.
The question I have is this a hardware issue or is it a software issue. I guess the best way would be to Odin back to stock JFD and see if that takes care of the issue. Just was hoping to settle down the flashing for a few days.
What is your guys suggestion on this subject, and were any of you a part of the initially dialogue on the subject?
Thanks guys.
I would flash back completely to stock, unroot and have it just like you picked it up from the store. This should relieve your mind of any rogue errors causing the home button to not work right. Test the home button and then if it's still not working, simply take it back and exchange it. This way at least you can get an exchange without having to fiddle with the phone any more.
It might just be hardware my phone dis this a lot and one day I thought I had enough and pushed the home button down. Hard. And now it works everytime! Try that

samsung fascinate frimware 2.2.1 its the super freakin clean rom ebo1 for baseband and build number ....the phone just shuts off randomly and i either have to do a battery pull or reboot with the poweer and volume buttons held in originally i thought it was a hardware issue so i got a new fascinate and this one is doing the same thing someone please help me
This typically stems from not wiping data as well as cache prior to flash...
Sounds like you have a rogue app locking the phone up while it's sleeping. I would do a factory reset, then install your apps one at a time until you figure out what's causing it. Allow the phone to sit idle, and maybe even reboot between installs. Allow the phone to settle down and enter sleep between each install and then try to wake the phone after it has been idle for a minute or two.
The other way would be to try looking at logcat with your phone connected to your computer when the screen is on, then when the display turns off and the phone sleeps. Odds are, whatever is causing the problem will be the last thing displayed if logcat stops giving you output. Otherwise, it should just repeat the same thing over and over (I'd assume so anyway) when it's trying to wake up from sleep.
My friend was having a similar problem so he flashed from SC 2.9 to the Deoxed eb01, wiped all the data on his SD card, and reflashed to SC 2.9, he hasn't had that problem since.
I am using CM7 latest weekely every thing is perfect but now suddenly my phones screen turns on like call is coming and turns back off after 2 sec and this happens randomly.
is this expected behavior?
is there any work around?
My fiancee has an atrix that is totally stock and hers just started doing this yesterday. I would also like to know the answer to this. I was thinking it was a hardware issue with the power button but hopefully i am wrong, that way I dont have to mess with a warranty exchange. Any help would be appreciated.
by any chance have u just start using this app "Memory Booster - RAM Optimizer" if yes then this might be the one, i have just messed around in its settingsd and no screen wakup problems so far

No. The only apps that I think might cause this that I have on her phone is beautiful widgets and a data toggle. She has had these apps on there for awhile and the phone just started to act up.
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
Both me and my brother own atrix and it happens on both.It was happening on stock 2.3.4 and now on cm7 as well it must be something with the phone not a rom related issue
i also have beautiful widgets, can sk8trix conform that his and his brother phone have this app too. if yes then this might be the cause. or we have to tell each other whole list of apps that we have installed to narrow down the culprit.
On her phone I have all of her apps that are supposed to sync turned off. I recently installed data enabler for her so she would have a data toggle on her home screen. I use advanced task manager to kill her apps by force stopping them. Last night I used it and closed everything and turned her screen off. 5 minutes later it come on for about two seconds and shut off. I have been looking at what apps might be causing this and really dont see anything unusual except for the data enabler and beautiful widgets. I will uninstall both of those and report back later on to let you know the result. Hopefully someone else will come along with a better solution.

I don't use beautiful widgets ever.....I even tried with a clean install no apps installed except stock cm7 apps and google apps and it still happened so I gave up trying to figure it out.
it doesn't shorten my battery life at all so I don't worry however if there is a fix I will use it because it is annoying.
Edit the only time the phones wake up by themselves is right after we hit the power button to turn the screen off or when the phone firat boots and is still locked it will turn the screen off and turn it back on the dim again.
I dont think its cm7 issue cos i was at weekly # 4 and there was no issue then i flashed tuch recovery and after that boot it started happening. Then i flashed latest weekely and reverted back to old recovery. And i agree this only happen when i turn screen off (randomly)
OK here is where I am at now with this problem. I uninstalled both apps and it seems to be ok for the time being, but my fiancee told me she had been receiving weird messages in her notification bar. I looked into it and she was getting ads in her notification bar. So I downloaded AirPush Detector from the market and ran a scan on her phone and it detected a couple of apps pushing notifications. I got rid of the apps and now im back to checking the phone again. I dont know if that AirPush app would help you guys out or not but it would hurt to try.
since i have started this thread my problems have gone away like a little *****, and i dont know how to recreate this problem any more so i am stuck with no problem no solution thing.
12 hrs passed no problem so far.
It was apps in the background running. Airpush helped. I told her from now on no more free apps, i would rather buy them then fight this **** again. I put the data toggle and beautiful widgets back on her phone and it's ok. Thanks for your guys input.

I am having The same problem with my Samsung Galaxy ace Gt-5830i.
Earlier it had problems with charging and SD card. So we took it to authorized service center. And they said they had formatted the phone and installed stock ROM on it. They also replaced the charger port. But now after two days the phone screen is turning on and off at repeated intervals (for about 2 Seconds). So what might be the problem.
I've noticed over the past 2 weeks or so that all of a sudden the phone sometimes doesn't bother with the lock screen. I'll double tap to wake and it'll go right to the home screen (or to whatever app I was in last). This happens with or without notifications. I thought it was something caused by Evolve because it seemed to stop once I cleared data/froze it with Titanium but it's started back up again.
Running Android M, rooted, with Xposed. However, I have not installed any new modules or done any system updates during this time. All of the phone settings look correct, and are unchanged, and there isn't a setting for 'skip the lockscreen like 30% of the time' anyway.
Anyone have any ideas? Could it be an app causing this? I believe those are the only things that have been updated.
Something like Greenify?
Any ideas on where to start troubleshooting would help. Thanks.
Still fighting with this. Anyone else? Removed everything I could find that wasn't being used. Wiped data for lockscreen settings. Wiped cache/dalvik. At a loss here. It's really annoying!
Only thing I can think of is that Power Key Instantly Locks is turned off.

it's on, and lock timer is set to immediately.
doesn't seem to have any relation to time. sometimes I'll pick the phone up after an hour and it'll go right in without the lock screen.

Sorry, I don't have any other ideas. Maybe someone else can be better help.
Still driving me nuts. I thought I had solved it by turning off 'battery optimizations' for anything always-on/lock screen related but that wasn't the answer. Reflashed the rom, still having the issue. Might need to reflash with a full wipe I guess.
I'd rather just move to Nougat but I can't get xposed to work properly. Life is hard haha.
in case anyone finds this thread when dealing with the same issue: Android Wear was the culprit. wakelock detector pointed me in that direction and once i uninstalled it, the problem stopped immediately and has not returned.
