Im 14, and I leave my phone on, but in my locker during school. After school is over and I bring my phone out, it is not off, it just doesnt respond. Pressing the power button doesn't wake it up, and holding it doesnt turn it on or off. I have to take the battery out and put it back in, then restart my phone.
Once my phone is on, i have <20 percent power left.
When It's the weekend, I always have my phone with me and I usually check it every few minutes. (Just pressing the power key to wake it up and see if I have any unread messages). I have my auto sync off, but every like 30 minutes, I check my phone and it turned auto sync on? WHY DOES IT DO THIS?
So my phone is almost not useable. I have 2 batteries... I've tried both, they are not dead, it's the phone that is killing them.
SO... MY QUESTIONS ARE:
1) WHY does my phone become un-able to wake up after hours in my backpack, and why when I take the battery out and put it back in, does my phone have under 20% battery?
2)Why does my phone turn Auto-Sync on every 30 mins or so?
THANKS EVERYONE!!

I was in File Expert this morning, about to back up my apps, and my screen locked up (I was just checking apps to BU, had not started it yet). The only button that works is the on/off, but it only turns the screen on and off. No power down, no back, no settings, nothing. SPG5, so can't do a battery pull (what was Samsung thinking?). I thought maybe my battery went to zero, but I have it on a charger now, still just screen on or off. Is there a reboot sequence?
HELP!
edit: Sorry for the panic. I discovered that if I looooooooong press the power button, it finally rebooted. Not like a typical power off, a hold for 5 seconds; this took a hold of at least 30 seconds. Screen did nothing for a while, then turned on, then turned off and rebooted. All is back to were it was...
So a week ago, I double tap my phone to turn it on and it doesn't. I try twice and nothing. I pressed on the power button and the screen did turn on, but since then, it's gotten so bad that neither the double tap nor the power buttons work. Sometimes, I use the camera shortcut to turn on the camera and Then go to the home screen. This worked for about a day, but then that isn't happening either. Now I find myself plugging it into the power supply to turn the screen and even taking out the battery and putting it back in. Since about a day ago, the screen won't turn on even if i get calls(any kind of call). When i'm on a call, the proximity sensor does it's job the beginning of the call, but When i want to end the call, it doesn't work and i have twist it or turn it on some other way. My phone discharged alarmingly fast, and i think it's because i had to leave the phone at very low charge levels. Also, i have a lot of apps, and all the ones that drain a lot have been deleted. So many bugs. No fixes. Please help
Update: I've reset my phone, no difference.
Flash with a stable rom. Or clear all settings do a wipe and reinstall.
Hello everyone so here's my story
Phone has been flawless until a few days ago never been so happy about my purchase.
I have had the phone for 2 years now no problems what so ever.
I started to notice the screen staying on all the time tried pressing the power button to put it into sleep and nothing.
If i hold down the power button it prompts me if i want to turn it off this rules out the power button not working.
Display setting-sleep after 15 sec
daydream is on
security is off and i also tried adding a screen lock to add the feature power button instantly locks also automatically lock is set to 54 sec.
i went into developer options and stay away is not checked.
Things i tried
I downloaded a app that puts a icon on my screen to put the phone in sleep mode WORKS! I am no expert but it seems like some type of trigger has broken between the power button and sleep.
I downloaded wakelock and nothing is running in background.
Did what i wanted to do last resort and did a full factory reset and recovery phone is fresh problem is still there.After searching for answers and reading many post i am at my last resort and posting for some help?
My HTC 816 turns off / shuts down after screen time out. After time out if you let it ideal for 5-7 seconds and then try to wake it up by pressing the power button, you will have to long press the button and the phone will boot.
I also noticed it turns of completely about 80% times and 20% times it restarts.
Other interesting thing i noticed is that if the phone is plugged into a power source it wont turnoff/restart, it will behave as it should.
Also if you are on a call, and the screen times out it wont turnoff / restart.
I guess the problem comes when the phone is left idle.
I have tried factory reset, clearing cache, booting in safe mode, nothing works.
Battery is in very good condition, no fluctuations gives very good backup.
