Wallpaper disapearing! SGP311 - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just noticed when I turn my tablet in landscape/portrait mode often the wallpaper disapear and the screen stay black for few minutes (like the no wallpaper mode in CM). It happends even with stock walls...
Didn't do nothing special to the tablet, just rooted.
Only me ?

I have found this problem as well.

Me too. It could be a kind of lagging.

Ok, just for the sake of statistics, it happens to me too... (Stock rom, rooted)

Thanks all, so I'm not the only one.

Touch Screen Issues

Sometimes my touchscreen will be terrible, their will be no response at all.. and it will grab, but it will be in the wrong places, ive only found this problem whenever i rooted and reflashed with das bamf so far, and it blows because its literally the only problem i have now after being so happy with this root/rom deal so far.. i never flashed a kernal, so would that have something to do with it, or are kernals necessary to do? i have no idea what one even is to begin with so if that will improve the keyboard and or permit it from failing that would be worth looking into.. or is their a way to increase sensitivity on the phone somehow?
Thanks!
It's not going to be a kernel issue. Kernels do effect how some things work, but the Bamf team pair their roms with a kernel they find most suitable with their work. Kernels are mostly for setting CPU speed and Voltages.
I don't think your issue is a rom/kernel related issue. Does this problem persist when you turn off the screen and turn it back on? Sometimes if you get sweat or moisture on the screen, it tends to freak out. Another thing you can try doing is just reflashing your rom. I remember putting the leaked OTA Gingerbread on my ex's Droid X and after 2 weeks, the screen started selected itself dead center of the screen. Reflashed the rom, and it hasn't done it since.
If all of these things fail, than you have a hardware issue I presume. I wish you luck
Does your problem occur consistently all the time, or only in certain situations?
I.e: When the screen has been off? When exiting certain apps, etc?
If it only happens in certain situations, it may be a clocking issue that is causing the "lag" response.
The only way ive found to fix it so far has been to wipe the screen down every time before use, but i find that odd because with the factory rom back when i never had to.. so i guess its just more suspectable to elememts interfearing with the actual screen.. i havent changed screen protectors or anything.. The craziest thing to me so far..
Which version of DasBAMF are you running? I have a similar problem with their Sense 3.0 roms. The buttons on the MLB at bat widget and the refresh button for the Pulse news widget seem to work only intermittently.

The problems with your widgets may be related to the resizing issues with the 3.0 rom and where on the screen you have to tap for it to recognize the tap. I think many have been fixed, but there may be still some odd ones here and there.

I was pointing out an issue with widgets on Das BAMF 3.0 as a specific example of an issue you might have. This point is not relevant since you are running 2.1.

On RC5, the 2 widgets I mentioned are still wonky. I'm sticking with 2.1 remix for now.
Do you have any kind of screen protector? I get that from time to time when my screen is dirty and as you said wiping it down has always fixed it.

Yeah, do screen protectors fade over time? as stupid as that sounds ive had this one on my phone for six months.. is it starting to break down or something?
also my next theory is temperature.. when my phone is exposed to hot areas it doesnt react.. i noticed that tonight

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] Homescreen in Landscape mode?

I dont know what happened but my Galaxy S3 can tilt from Portrait to landscape while in Homescreen this morning.
But now when I tried it again it does not do it anymore, I did not restart the phone or anything. I'm on stock TW and not rooted.
Am I missing something here why I cant do it anymore? Take note that currently the screen rotation is still turned on.
I had the same issue on samsung tab and have been said by the samsung tech team to recalibrate the tab , tried it and got it resloved.
got the issue again after tried the stap again no luck, tech guys said I need to do a factory rest and that fixed the issue.
Hi mate, currently in my case my homescreen is still in portrait mode . But I'm just wondering why can i adjust it a while ago to landscape mode while I'm in home screen but now I cant.
The only difference is I'm connected to my wifi router a while ago and now I'm not connected to it.
Take note that I did not use any MHL adapter (I read somewhere else that using MHL will enable that functionality).
Hmm. maybe a bug. But that was cool

When you say the 'issue' is the issue that it was rotating or that it wasn't? Is the homescreen supposed to rotate? I'm trying to decide if I should get a GS3 or a GNex today and I'm not familiar with how touch wiz normally operates.
What do you mean by Homescreen? The screen you get when you have unlocked the phone? If so then mine has never tilted into landscape mode and is always in Portrait, is this not suppose to be the case?
@Claytop
Yes mate. But right now it's not going to landscape anymore. Don't know why. I guess its a bug. hmmm

sorry for my ignorance, I never saw the default homescreen rotate in landscape mode. but in the tab both default homescreen and application homescreen rotate.
can other users confirm if the default homescreen tilt/rotate in landscape mode??
I am going ok with the touchwiz if you need a faster response probably you need to root and put in some good rom.

I believe that's the normal operation in the homescreen because no one replied experiencing same scenario I mentioned
Iv installed a sikipedia widget and when i click it the home screen goes to landscape mode...
would very much like to have this as a standard.
It's better to factory reset the device. If u still face the issue, try going with roms. It may get better.

Calibrate motion in settings. If this does not work then do a factory reset

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

[HELP NEEDED] Split Screen Recent Apps

Hi Fellow XDA Members,
I am experiencing a bug (i think) on my Mate 10 Pro (BLA-L29 C636) ever since i updated to .138 (Face Unlock update).
When i'm on "split-screen mode", when i hit the "recent" button, the "other half" of the screen just goes to Home and not opening my recent apps window. This kinda frustrates me while doing multi-tasking since I need to scroll through all my apps and look for the one i need.
I already updated to the latest version, .139, but issue/bug still persists. I already did restore factory settings / wipe cache etc. But still not fixing it.
Maybe i'm missing something on settings?
Hopefully someone gets what i'm talking about and can help me.
Thank you in advance and good day!
It's not a bug, it's feature!

what do you mean by feature? that it doesn't do "recent app window" on the half of the split-screen mode??? Because on .119 update, it just works fine.
I know, as far as I know, they changed it.
I liked the former way more, too.

Damn. Did they post it on changelog or something?
Noticed also some weird stuff when watching YT in landscape mode, it automatically sets you to "vivid" color mode. Not a fan of it either. That's why i only set my device to "normal" color mode. It goes back though when you close YT app.
