so, are you using a custom or stock rom? are you rooted? do you have any mod? it would be great if you can add some information like android version too
Whatever, if you don't have any mod or custom rom, it's maybe an app who is making bad function.
Sorry but my english it's not so good

I have noticed this too, come back to my phone to see it illuminated,
stock ICS rom generic.

+1 with this problem and today it happened few times at least!

hello i have the same problem with my XPERIA U. full stock..non rooted..

Yes it's the widget I too had this problem and it was the HD widget that was acting culprit. So just disable automatic location service. If you don't have this widget do this for the widgets u have installed that needs location for example weather widgets. Hope this helps. Regards.

[Q] MIUIv4 2.6.29 + Rage Kernel 3.2: phone turns itself on when plug the charger

Hi there, my WT19i behaves a bit odd when concerning to charge while the phone is off. If it's off, when I insert the charger, it turns itself on; if the charger is in whith the phone on, everything works normally; if I turn it off with the charger plugged, it doesn't charge after it turns off. Do you experience the same? Is it the kernel's or the ROM's fault? Cheers.
This is the rom I'm using: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702952
Overall the best and most bug-free bar the stock rom, but it has that problem and a needs a bit of small fine-tuning in some details (MIUI Weather not working, backlight panel toggle can't be removed and does nothing, no emoticons in SMS, Facebook integration in the contacts doesn't work). Can't wait to be able to post in the development threads :good:
It's within the ROM. I'm using exmiui, and don't have that problem.

Oh, what a pity... I dumped recently ExMIUI for this one because this has a lot less bugs and the development will continue and updates are coming every week, while the development of ExMIUI is a lagging way behind and it's said that will be abandoned. I hope they iron out this bug, then...
About those programs that have no use, such as:
- the MIUI network assistant, that doesn't work with non-chinese providers,
- the Permission Manager, that does nothing, because it's superseeded by the Superuser APK;
- the Notes program that is in chinese and anyway I already have the Myphonexplorer Notes for that;
- the Torch program, that is irrelevant since I can use the flash as a torch by just clicking in the notification area;
- the "Multiling Keyboard" that becomes useless when we can use the standard ICS keyboard;
- the Music program that is superseeded by the Walkman app in this ROM;
- that thing written in chinese that seems some kind of firewall
Can I use Titanium Backup to remove them without breaking the ROM or damaging stability / functionality? Thanks in advance.
What in chinesse?
I don't see any chinesse language except the downloaded theme.
Number 1,3,5,6, u can remove it.

Strange bug : impossible to wake the phone when it's locked

Hi!
I'm using a recent CM9 nightly with default kernel.
I would like to have your opinion : about 3/4 a week my SGS3 is "stuck" when it's locked : impossible to wake up using home or power button, the screen stays black.
The weird thing is that when it happens, the phone is not frozen : I can still hear music on the headphones and control volume using Up/Down buttons.
Sometimes I let it stuck and receive a notification some minutes later and the phone magically can be unlocked again, screen wakes when I push Home button.
Very weird and annoying when that happens.
My question is : what do you think it could be? An app? How can I debug this and know what prevents the screen to wake up when that happens?
Thanks.
Wipe and reflash the rom

Thanks, but is that the kind of easy answer you all tell when you don't know the exact answer?
When I installed CM9 a week ago, I did do a full wipe...
I think that next time it happens, I will try to connect my SGS3 on USB and do a adb logcat, maybe I'll find useful information.
Have you tinkered with any of the could settings or voltage settings?

Having a similar problem to yourself. Installed CM9 rom had a play and then went back to omegaV9 performing a full wipe using the instructions on this site before reflashing.
Since then when my phone is locked screen off then i unlock either via swipe or using security code (digits ) it looks like the phone unlocks but sort of does a warm boot with black screen for a few seconds with the two buttons down the bottom light up.
When it starts it looks like all the apps have stopped and are restarting again.
I re flashed again omega 9 thought i had it sorted but it started playing up again this evening.
If anyone has any ideas please post..
Hi, I'm a newbie here. I also exprience this problem with my samsung GT-i9300. I hoping to see a fix with this problem.
This forum has been so helpful to new android users. Thank you guys.

Wakeup lag

Hi there,
I'm just wondering if there's a rom that fixes the wakeup lag on the phone. I do believe it must be software related so it should be possible to fix it. I already tried wakelock, but this really drains the battery.
I also tried a few "jellybean"roms, but the problem still persits. I really love my phone, but I dont understand why everytime I want to use my phone I need to stare at a black screen for a while before it wakes up.
Thanks,
No idea either mate but my phone shows the screen instantly when I hit the home button. Maybe energy saving mode on or some apps causing lag?
You could try to back up everything and then wipe your device.
+1 on the instantly turning on

S3 screen continuously turns on and off when in idle mode

I have a general problem with all samsung mobile phones from s2 and note to s3
The screen continuously turns on and off when in idle mode that drain phone battery fast and I had no reason to do something like that
Any one could help?
must be because of something you did on all these phones.
- rooted?
- custom rom?
- separate custom kernel?
- weird apps?
- some badly made cover/case that inadvertently presses the power button regularly?
what happens on screen when it is turned on? just the unlock screen or ..??

it's not rooted or custom rom it's the original rom
weird apps I don't really know about this
cover/case not installed
it's only lighten up like when press home key the pattern appear and then turn off again
I've had all the Galaxy S line of phones. Never seen this kind of behavior. Especially if your not flashing anything. Take it back.

I had this problem with my S3 2 weeks ago.
Turns out that the "Super Mario Bross" game was causing this.
Install BetterBatteryStats to see whats is causing this problem. :good:

Thanks, but is this APP will mention or analyze what is the APP that is behind this or it will just save battery?

It gives you a detailed report of whats constantly using the battery and keeping the phone awake, called wakelocks.
