LockScreen Issues = terrible - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

[Q] Lock Screen freezing?

Is anyone else having issues with the tablet seizing up on the lockscreen?
I have the tab from I/O running 3.1 rooted. Occasionally when waking the tab from sleep the screen is completely unresponsive. Sometimes pressing the power button a few times or rotating will work but a lot of the time I have to hold the power button down and do a power cycle.
Has anyone else run in to this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it?
I've had the same issue twice today. I was in Google Maps and then it wouldn't do anything. I had to hold the power button to have it restart. Then a few minutes latter the screen wouldn't respond to anything. I have the Google I/O Tab.
my dad just got a galaxy tab and is having this problem. Did anyone find a solution?
Blame Google they released honeycomb in a rush.

It is set to never sleep.
I used to have that issue with stock ROM a few times in the past. The way I found to 'fix' it was to press the power button then wait 5-10s without touching screen, then trying to unlock it. I hope it works for you.

Phone keeps locking

I'm using dagr8s alpha 2 and my phone keeps locking. Like for example when I click a notification in my status bar my phone will lock for some reason. Also it happens sometimes when I click on an app. But the Strange thing is that it is not fully locked. Like I can just press the lock button and it will take me to the home screen. Also another thing is that whenever I enable blue tooth a pop up comes asking me to use car mode. I don't know why this is happening it's kind of annoying. Is this a bug with a rom. Is anybody else experiencing this?

[Q] Turning off screen issues after updating to ICS

Hello, before ICS I was using an app (tap tap tap https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.maicas.android.wsleep&feature=search_result)
to turn off screen by pressing a widget instead of pressing the power button, thereby I avoid to be pressing the annoying button
It worked perfectly, but after flashing ICS it isnt working good, when I try to turn off screen, it does it during half a second but then It go back on in pattern lockscreen. If I dont touch the screen it goes off again after a few seconds
Any idea please? thanks a lot
Maybe the app just doesn't work on ICS? A lot don't yet
Have you noticed that this application has been updated 1 year ago??
Try " screen off and lock "

Acro S screen doesn't open some times

Hi,
I have Xperia Acro S for a week now.
The mobile is generally great.
I just have some symptom which makes me a bit worried.
The story is like this; the phone is locked, I press the power button to open the screen.... normally it works as it should be.... but some times the screen just shows a fade light and nothing appears on the screen except this fade light. I press the power button again, the fade light disappears, then I press the power button again, the screen opens normally... it works fine after then.
Did it happen to anyone? is there a fix?
Thanks alot,
Gano
I mean it doesnt wake up ... just fade light.... but it works after then with the 2nd trial.
sorry for posting several times... just for clarification .... it is like waking up the phone from the standby mode... the backlight works as well as the buttons (settings, home, back) light up.... i push the power button again... the lights disappear and the phone goes to standby mode again... i press the power button once again... the screen responds normally.
Thanks,
any idea ?
Im also experiencing the same issue recently. Ever since the latest update. 2.45.
I think that the homescreen app crashes resulting in that.
So far i havent found any solution yet.
It occurs occasionally to me. Probably once a day.

Same here, it's like the phone is turned off. It wont react for about 30 seconds. If I have a notification, the light will blink and the screen wont turn on, so I know the phone is "working". It's been like this since the last update, never had this before.

Hmm.. Looks like it is a global issue.. Hope it will get solved in the next update..
Thanks alot

I have seen this too occasionally, I think it's usually when I press the power button to sleep phone while an app (browser, facebook, etc) was trying to load data from net.Then when I immediately press again to wake it, the screen does not respond until another try.
Not sure is this bug of latest firmware as I had not spent much time on the old one. But the new firmware definitely heats up more and often even if just doing simple browsing more than old one. Battery seems not so good also. Hope this gets fixed soon.

Xperia Z2 Blank Screen

Hello,
I have a very strange problem with my Xperia Z2. After unlocking the display on the device is blank. You can see the brightness, the touch works, because when I swipe my fingers I can hear android sound but there is no picture. I must do "lock - unlock" pattern 3-4 times, sometimes even more to get the display work properly. I tried to fix it by using software repair but it didnt work, and also
factory reset. Its just so iritating, I cant even lock my phone anymore, I try to keep the display on as much as possible if someone trys to call me so I can answer it. Device is currently running on Existenz ROM but the issue started on the stock so I flashed custom rom but it didn't help. So this is probably a hardware problem and if it is, what could be broken ( is it display, GPU,whatever ) or it could be a software problem ? Any help would be appreciated.
Can you see your lockscreen?

No, no the "lock-unlock pattern" is reffered to simply pressing the unlock button on the phone. There is just blank display and light is on as I mentioned but no picture. After pressing button many times the picture finaly comes and then it's normal. It only happens when phone goes to sleep mode or after I lock it.
If your phone reboots can you see the SONY logo and the boot animation as well?

Nope, there is nothing. Just a sound and LED works, and blank screen. Then again, when the phone finally reboots, pressing lock-unlock button will do the trick. It seems like, when I dont touch the phone longer time, it's harder to get screen on. But when I constantly work with the phone there is no need for that amount of "lock - unlock button move".

It's probably hardware, now it's just a question of repair cost and is it worth it ?

I think this is due to a faulty LCD screen, but the digitalizer seems fine. So maybe you could consult some local repair shops and prove if my hypothesis is correct. But first of all you should try also flashing another kernel (eg elite kernel) first to see if it is a software issue rather than a hardware issue.
