[Q] Delayed wakeup upon unlock. 4.0.3 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yes, I have searched the forum but only found old posts, nothing pertaining to ICS about this.
I've had this problem since 2.3, and it's kinda annoying.
When I press the unlock button it takes around 2sec for the phone to wake-up.
I thought this was supposed to be fixed in the verisons after 2.3, and now I have 4.0.3 and it's still present.
Anyone else have this problem?
Is it a Google or Samsung problem. Can it be remedied?

Well if you want, you could stop your phone going into deep sleep and have less battery life

Nah, don't wanna clock it up.
But is this a common problem or just some unfortunate people that have it?

I have same problem with any stock or custom rom and is verry annoying.

It's normal. I use CM 9 and I'll hit the home button on my sleeping phone now...and it took around 1 second to wake up.
There isn't anything you can do about it.
As Riz said last month, would you rather your phone deep sleep & conserve battery when you're not using it & take a second to wake up or would you rather have a permanent wakelock & resultant battery drain in order to have it wake up in a few tenths of a second ?
I mean, we are talking about a second here. Not half a minute or something.

Yay! You got a new sig!
It always makes me wonder what people expect with these threads....it's like when you wake a pc up - it isn't instantaneous...and is a second really too long to wait?

Yeah I couldn't resist ;-)
Yep you're right. People do expect too much sometimes, as you said, how long does a PC take to wake up from hibernation ? Phone takes no time in comparison.

UI glitch we ALL suffer from re: lockscreen/quick wake - video post #10

I'm getting extremely frustrated with the glitch that we all see on a daily basis: quick locking/unlocking of the phone will yield the unlocked screen followed by the lockscreen. How has this not yet been fixed by Google? Does anyone have a workaround? So stupid and unprofessional. It makes me sad :-(
What?
/10chars
Lock your phone then immediately press the lock button again to get to lockscreen. Tell me you don't see the previous screen for a split second before the lockscreen shows up.

That's BS. It happens almost every time and on every Android device. It's not long at all, but there's no way that every time you try a speedy lock/unlock that you don't get a glimpse of what's hiding behind the lockscreen. It's the same thing with apps that have lockscreen widgets (like PowerAMP). Sometimes I'll get a glimpse of the stock lockscreen and then the PowerAMP lockscreen widget will show up.
Android seems to have a serious issue dealing with sleep mode and knowing what to do on wake.
well... it doesnt happen on my sgs2, my missus' sgs2 or on my asus transformer.
Whats the big deal anyway?
Try calming down and chilling out..... its only a phone.

I can GUARANTEE that it happens on your S2. It happened on my HTC Magic, N1 and my current SGS2. Maybe you don't notice it, but it's definitely there. I'm uploading a video now to demonstrate what I mean, including the PowerAMP issue.
FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone said:
Yeah, it happens. But I don't see it as a security flaw, sure for a split second you can access an unlocked screen but after that the pattern lock comes up followed by my widgetlocker screen
This does need to be fixed I agree.

Thanks for the USEFUL response! I don't see it as a security flaw either, just a massive unprofessional bug. TBH, it's things like this that are the reason why the iPhone is seen to be smoother and more polished. I don't have an iPhone, so I can't ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEE, but I'm pretty damn sure that something like this would never happen. And don't get my started on "only 1 phone to test on"; this has happened on ever Android device I have owned.
As you can see above, the issue is definitely there. Even if it is for a SPLIT second, it still happens and it shouldn't. And the issue with the PowerAMP lockscreen delaying for nearly 3 seconds should NEVER happen. Hell, I just tried it 15 times straight on my 2nd generation iPod touch, and it didn't happen once.
Honestly, if it takes Android purportedly DELAYING the screen wake by a second just to ensure that this doesn't happen, it's worth it IMO.
I see it when the phone has locked itself but not when I lock it using the power button.
I wonder if because the screen is off before actually locking the new lockscreen is not displayed until the screen is turned back on.
Agree it looks like sh1t when it does it.

I think he just means the "iPhone is better" war.
Not doing it here on KI8. I flashed and did a factory reset, wiped the dalvik cache and re-installed my apps and theres not a single glimpse of the screen under the lock screen.
I use a screen lock widget to turn off and lock the screen and the centre button to wake up the phone.
Trust me when i say it isn't happening on mine, it has done it previously and that's why i started using Widget Locker instead...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
i just spent the last 15 minutes trying this out on my KI3 custom ROM...not happening, goes straight to the lock screen (believe me, im anal about things...)
I think it depends whats on the phone, what settings are used, the kernel etc...
As its something we DONT all suffer from, will you change the thread title?
And you're following along exactly with how I'm describing? Immediate lock and unlock?
And anyway, I'm talking about STOCK Android without any "help". WidgetLocker/custom ROM isn't stock.

Yes me too, I have nearly burned my fingers off swiping my screen, and power button off. No problems with my K14 stock rom.
Maybe you need to clean up the App Cache, and use a memory booster as well?
Just a thought!
Sorry dont do split seconds .

it does happen for me as well.. but yes only a split second.. i just lived with it.. think of it as a "feature" lol
I agree it happens on every android phone....heck its android lol! When i think of android i think of bugs lol. Again its very minor but u want see it on a apple device. Still love my SGS2 to biiits
Sent from my iphone look a like powered by android!
This irks me greatly, since it seems to have gotten worse on KI3. Has currently annoyed me to the point of trying a stack of different ROMs to see if any of them are better. CM7 is - shame it's not quite at a daily driver level yet.

Wake On Volume Rocker

I hate this feature a lot. I wish it would go away.
I don't remember the phone doing it when I first got it but it seems to now. I didn't pay much attention because I didn't expect the phone to do it seeing as how none of my previous phones have.
Without having to root the phone and disable it - is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing which is causing the phone to wake and the volume keys to work normally even though the phone is locked?
I'd check your recent app downloads? Cause that doesn't make any bit of sense. Just tried it and nothing happened. Up down held up and held down. Nada

I've been attempting to avoid that real hard. I have flashed all past phones and I was trying to just enjoy this for what it was for a while. Flashing roms always sacrifices features or has other tradeoffs. Tired of that. Kept the number of apps way down, kept everything as simple as possible and of course... things still go wrong. Haven't even rooted it yet.

Man I want my phone to be as unresponsive as possible when it's off. and I want it to be hard to unlock.
If there's any semblance of "easy to unlock" I pocket dial a solid 18-22 people a day while at work... and since I've got my exchange account paired to it with the company phone directory of a few hundred people... it starts getting interesting real quick.
haha this is funny. these few have volume wake by accident(likely b/c of something they flashed or another app borking something) and do not want it at all, all awhile these others would love to have the feature....haha
to further clear it up, this is not a new sense feature as others have mentioned as mine here is bone ass stock not a single mod or even app downloaded on it yet and it does not do it one bit...

6.1.A.2.50 [Quick Launch Bug]

Hey all,
I know a lot of members here at xda are affected by the camera quick launch feature. Some are not even aware of it. However, it did come to my attention that for the ones that stated their quick launch is working every single time, it is likely because their devices are not sleeping properly.
If you are one of the members that has a perfectly working quickly launch, please check your battery usage and see if your device is sleeping properly. Also, please make sure you run a few tests to ensure that your quick launch is working following these instructions.
1) Power on your screen with the top left power button, press again to power off and let screen idle for about 15-20 secs.
2) Activate the quick launch from black screen with the dedicated camera button. Repeat for 5-10 times and report your success rates.
Most people will notice that after the first few tries, it can take up to 2-4 times to activate quick launch feature.
I hope all of the xperia S members take part in this and convince Sony that they have to focus on this issue. It has been left unfixed for far too long. please follow this link and voice your issue there.
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/53257?tstart=30
We need a fix or a straight forward answer.
Mine worked first time, but then the next NINE attempts all failed
I'm running .50 unofficially though, as the .45 update hasn't even made it to the UK yet, so Sony would probably say in my case its because I have hacked firmware :banghead:

No, Sony just need to understand that A LOT of people are affected by this issue. Most members dont even know they have this issue until they tried, thus Sony is sort of down playing this issue thinking that only a small fraction of people are suffering from this bug. But the truth of the matter is that a lot of people are suffering from it. As long as you flashed the .50 firmware and the bug is there, it will be there for you even if you get the official update from PCC, it makes no differences.

An issue is an issue whether big or small! Buggy camera Quick Launch is the biggest issue for me on ICS, because I use this feature a lot (and only to see it fail many times). I understand that such a feature might not be of importance to you, but it is to many like me. So, kindly be considerate to others' issues than being outright dismissive !
not a big deal
i don't use the camera it self for about 3 weeks and i didn't get the phone to use the camera
so it's not affecting my daily use of the phone call me idiot or what ever as you did on your last reply but trust me we using human made product and you have to expect bugs and faults of any kind and solving issue could take time so be polite nothing will change you have to phone keep it or give it away.

For the members stating it worked 100%, did you make sure to let the phone idle on the black screen for at least 15 seconds in between ?
Hm, mine is working but i noticed something else - every time i'm at the office, where the reception is pretty bad, the phone is constantly awaking. when i'm at home, where the reception is really good it's sleeping very well. So, do you think the bad battery life might be something related to poor reception? Also is there a way to disable totally the quick launch, i never use it and if i can get better battery life with disabling quick launch i'll be more than happy to do it.

when the phone gets a long idle, it will usually work on the first try. however if you try to let it idle anywhere between 15 seconds - a few mins, it will have trouble in between. usually if i leave the phone alone for 2 hours and try, it will always work too. however once i activate the first time and try again in a minute or two, fail rates are extremely high.
and if i sounded angry for calling someone an idiot before, it was because he tried to be an ass and made me look like a bad guy for pointing out a bug in the phone. i'm usually very respectful towards other people.
First time i had this Bug was on GB wenn i've installed vintage and the QL-Button seemingly couldn't find out which app to choose . after setting the camera app to default it worked until ICS... but since my clean-install of .50, the rooting and the removing of all the bloatware its gone and its working every single time for me, no matter how long i wait in between or whatsoever.
maybe another problem for unlocked BLs like the BE b/c mine is locked.
This morning i tried with data off and let the screen off for 20s and 4/8 success rate! Now i tried with data on! Do the same success rate is 100% 9/9! Might me my line, my messenger, whatsapp keep the phone a wake!
Don't forget to hit thank, if i deserve it!

[app]Sleep widget (SUPER USER MOD only)

This is a small app I made, that does realy nothing other then call PowerManager.goToSleep.
This is normally not possible as DEVICE_POWER permission is only given to system apps, so will not work unless you have super user mod.
ROM developers can sign it with their ROM key if they wanr it in their ROM. If you sign it to your old ROM, please attach it to a post in this thread and I will add a link to your post.

Put the phone to sleep.
If I set screen timeout too short it will turn off while I'm reading something, if it's long enough I need to press the power button if I want to save battery, which is not very convenient. so this make it easy to put it to sleep

Only the sleep functionality of power button (short press), nothing to do with wakelocks oher then overriding any that are held at the time it is pressed, just as the power button does.
My mom would love something like this. She hates the powerbutton on her P, and I do too lol
I tried a few similar apps from play store, but most of them seemed to drain battery (not going to sleep properly?) or just cause freezes and other funny things. One of them actually completely locked up my One S, forcing me to go into recovery to uninstall it lol
So, question is, will this drain battery or cause funny issues? Or is it simply a 1:1 replica of the powerbutton?
Also, possibly slightly offtopic, but this(or super user mod) isnt working on ICS is it?
Ive been away from android stuff for almost a year now, so most of my devices are quite outdated software-wise
@Goatshocker
As I've said in the OP it realy does nothing, so no battery drain waht so ever.
It will work on (almost) any android version, providing it is "granted" the DEVICE_POWER permission, either by signing it with ROM key or if you have bypass this permission check like super user mod does.
As for the super user mod, it might work if you mod it for ICS yourself, I'll check ICS services.jar.
EDIT: I've looked at ICS services.jar and the code look about the same so I'm guessing you can mod it.
Aight, sounds good.
I found a lot of other interesting stuff that requires JB, so Im gonna go ahead and update it to JB.
Thanks for looking though.
@Goatshocker
A bit OT too, but if you realy hate the power button that much, I have another lil app I made, that turn the phone on waving the hand over the proximity sensor.
This does cause some battery drain, about 3% of total on my phone according to battery stats.
I know there are other apps that do it, but for some reason they hold a wakelock (at least some of them) while mine let the phone deep sleep, and all you need to do to stop it is click it in the notification tray.
It does not require any mod, and should work on any device.

even it s no fun to have this bug...
Do you have a full screen protector? A case that covers or youre covering the light sensor next to the speaker?
yes i do, you think that can be the cause?

actually it s not a full screen protection, it s the film that was on the screen when i bought it.
light sensor works fine
I got mine fixed by calibrating the motion sensor in display settings.

Just did it but when i make a call, once i press the dial button, screen turns off
Sounds like your proximity sensor is covered up or not working. Do you have a screen protector or anything on the phone which might interfere with it? If so maybe remove it and retry. Also I'm sure you could find an app that would check it.

The Software is buggy and LG is not doing anything about it . I tweeted to them so many times and i thought HTC was bad.. they were amazing .. my first and last LG device .. however i am just confirming its not always proximity sensor issue .. Its the buggy software implementation.
i quite agree with you.... any idea when we get 6.0 ?
Would it be software? If we all have the same phone with the same software then we would all have the same problem, but we don't?
It's a software bug... Rebooting the phone fixed the problem, but then it starts acting the same way after few calls.

You could try( if you haven't already), wiping your sensors. They sometimes get dirty & don't work properly.
I have same issue and have no protectors or covers or nothing just the stock phone. I think it's got to be some stupid software issue and it is very irritating. Went from one ridiculous phone into another headache...

Drama much? The phone has been out for barely more than a month... and not every phone is having this issue.
Process: Collect as many bug reports as possible, recreate and fix issues, release a patch.
LG is not going to release a patch just for your particular problem because you tweeted really hard.

Retarded much ? I did not tweet to them about this problem, many people did. I tweeted then wrt their update roadmap and yes the phone should not be out in the first place if it has such obvious bugs you are clearly not aware how responsible companies work. I rest my case. If you are happy then enjoy.

My phone doesn't exhibit this behavior. I just get tired of all the worst phone ever, LG how could you?? posts in this group. It's ridiculous. Get over yourself.

Well people value their money and thats why when they feel they have inferior product the will complain. Like micro scratches on the screen, bleed on second screen, back peeling off .. and if you dont have this issue does not mean these issues dont matter and it also means serious quality control issues at LG. You for one needs to get over yourself and respect other people's problems, i have none of the above problems except the software bugs, i still feel compassionate towards fellow community members who might have recieved inferior quality devices. I clearly understand your personality type, "I dont care if the whole world goes to hell if i dont have a problem i am good." You should try to be less selfish and i am sure i am not the first one in your life to call you selfish. Think about why those people think you are selfish.

Firstly, Take a chill pill all
All u need to do is adjust the timeout time [emoji6]
Search within settings for "timeout"
Or go to Display settings
