Hi
I seem to experience this problem on all HD2s. I activated the phonelock on HD2 and used a simple PIN for unlocking it. When I'm in the LockScreen, keying my PIN, the phone goes to suspend mode (or it seems like it, since the screen just blacks out and i need to press the power button again to see the lockscreen) after about 13 sec, everytime. This phenomenon happens only when phone is using battery power. It works fine when running on external power.
Is there a way disable this issue, or extend the time it blacks out. I'm using the default WM6.5 rom 1.66.707.1
Please help, Thank you.
same problem with me ! any solutions ???
settings menu all settings system power backlight
try increasing the timeout.
also settings menu all settings lock
see what options are in there. (mine won't start so i can't test it.)
I have tried all the settings i can find on the phone. I even tried changing Registry values that might be related to the timeouts. but still the same.
The screen will black out even while you are typing, so this rules out all the timers that will suspend the phone when idle for too long.
Please help, as this is a big issue for me.
Thanks.
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?
rest all is good..no lag..once unlocked phone works perfectly...no lag..no getting stuck..again, let me tell u this issue happens once in 15-20 lock/unlocks.
I think I have the same issue as you, but in case I don't I will post what I am seeing on my device.
In about the same frequency, say once in every 15 unlocks from phone sleeping, the screen will come on but will be completely unresponsive. Doesn't matter if it is swipe unlock or pin code etc, there is no response to touch input on the screen. In fact, I think the screen is just frozen or the operating system is causing the lock screen to hang.
If the lock screen is hanging, pressing power will:
(a) sometimes make the phone sleep again
(b) make the phone screen kind of glitch/blip and then it takes input again
(c) does nothing and the screen remains on and hung/frozen
Occasionally mashing both the volume key and power key will help fix it, but usually if it is completely stuck I have to do a hard reset (holding HOME+VOL UP+POWER and then selecting reboot from the menu).
Now - I think this could be an app, but not sure.
When I first got the phone, set it up with my Google account etc, it went ahead and downloaded ALL the apps I had installed on my previous phone (HTC Sensation running Android ICS). So if it is an app, it is having issues with this phone, not the OS, imo.
I uninstalled all those automatically downloaded apps, and used the phone for a bit without my normal stuff installed. Then started installing apps singularly.
I think it is either Facebook or Alarm Clock Xtreme. The latter makes more sense given it would be polling the system to find out when to go off, so it is doing more in the background I would expect than Facebook or any other non-system app.
Other apps I have installed/running:
Swiftkey X
3G watchdog
Dolphin Browser HD
ES File Explorer
Winamp (locks without this running or running at all in lock screen mode, so that is not the issue)
Real Calc
Google Drive
Facebook
Alarm Clock Xtreme
It is quite frustrating for a brand new phone to have these issues. Not sure if it is hardware related, and if it is, I want to find out soon so I can take it back to carrier within their 28day device swap RMA period.
Thoughts?
So others may try to help or identify the possible cause / fix .......
What is your firmware version?
Are you rooted, custom ROMs or Mods etc?
Stock ROM,Baseband : XXLE8. Build No :XXALE9.
But my screen responds after i press wake button again. You are right seems to be issue with the app. i will just compare your apps and below are the ones which are common between us.
Facebook
3G watchdog
Dolphin Browser HD --i never use
Google Drive
a fix that worked for me
Steps to the solution that worked for me (so far) were to uninstall:
1. Alarm Clock Extreme (no noticeable result but I wasn't needing that application anyway)
2. I had WIFI Fixer installed because of the problems I experienced with the WIFI connectivity on my Galaxy S3.
I disabled that application and problems seemed to go away for a time, but every so in a while they resurfaced. Much less often than before, though.
I was still stuck with my WIFI problem anyway, so I looked into solutions for that problem and since I could not find a workable solution I uninstalled Wifi Fixer and started tweaking my WIFI settings.
While doing that I noticed that disabling "Network Notification" under the Settings -> WIFI -> Advanced tab fixed both my problems.
Now I can't be 100% sure this solution works for all, but I am pretty sure the application that created the problem was "WIFI Fixer".
It's been more than 4 hours now without the "disabled unlock screen from hell", and I’m very happy.
LOOOL
Actually...
My WIFI problem was not solved.... but I found a solution on another forum , which you can read below:
I dialed *#0011# then pressed menu button, then selected WIFI, and pressed the button to turn off the "WIFI power save mode". Hit back until I was back in the homescreen. WIFI has worked to my satisfaction ever since.
This is not a solution, this is a work-around....
It will remove the standby wifi.... My phone was at 0% battery in one night... But actually yes, the phone doesn't hang up when unlocking.
Someone who had replaced the phone could tell me if the problem is solved with a new one ?

This looks like a bug from wifi, i had the same problem and i found a fix:
On the dialer type: *#0011#
Then press menu -> wifi, there is a button ON ( power saving or something ), change it to OFF.
let me know if it solves ur problem
It worked!!

This worked for me!!! Thank you!! I was about to take a hammer to this phone! :good:
I seem to have another problem. When unlocking the phone the screen turns on in a quite ok amount of time, but then when I touch it immediatelly after it turns on it doesn't react to touch. This moment when touch is not working is getting longer and longer depending on how long the system is running, anybody else sees this?

Not sure what ROM and kernel you are using, but at a big guess, try reflash another kernel or with less aggressive settings.

hey guys. I have a problem with my s3's lock screen similar to the described. whenever I press the power button to unlock, it takes 2 second for the screen to turn on. Anyone got any ideas on that?
Hello all, my capacitive buttons on evo 3d are broken (some day they just stop responding) , so i googled for solution, find nothing, then i ordered new digitizer, now digitizer is waiting for me to have money to repair my phone. But some days ago ill installed CM10 With sweep2wake option. When my phone is screen off, when i touch the home button (thats is not working) guess what. IT LIGHTS THE PHONE AND RECOGNIZE TOUCH. While i sweep from home to search - my phone unlock (So my buttons recognize touch) I am now like wtf? Is there a way to examine those buttons with some sort of programs or etc? Is there a way of repairing them without changing digitizer?
Best regards, Bazyl93

So the buttons only work for sleep to unlock or do they work like they should on the cm10 rom? If they do not work normally then it may be the s2w recognizes the area of the screen close to the buttons, but not the actual buttons.
Get kernel tuner and then go on to check with the brightness of capacitive buttons. There is a chance you have them at 1% and you can't make out if they are lit or not ...
just a quick question, with both builds of Miui (ics/jb) i notice that the capacitive keys seem to vibrate on touch even when the screen is off. is there a fix within the rom to turn them off?
You capacitive buttons shouldn't be responding when screen is off unless you have sweep2wake.
Check whether you have sweep2wake in your kernel. If you do, turn it off. Use an app like kernel tuner to do that.
I am unable to wake the phone during a call. As soon as I answer a call, or press the call button my screen turns off. I can not wake it with proximity sensor, double tap or power button. There is literally no way to turn on the screen once a call has started. It was random when it started. I had been using Vanir for a while and then one day it started on my phone, and never left. I have even flashed my OG nandroid stock and the issue was present there after flashing to that.
I have swapped ROMs, AOSP x4, BarRin, Stock, you name it, but to no avail. I have cleared everything off my internal, wiped the internal memory, sideloaded a ROM back from scratch and booted up plain jane... same issue.
I am attaching a link to a logcat incase anybody has any ideas. I'm simply lost with this, and it is a major issue considering every time I make a call I have to be ready to take the case off so that I have faster access to pop the back off and battery pull. This is not a way to live.
PLEASE if someone has any ideas on how/where to go about fixing this, I will be grateful.
Not sure if it matters, but after a call ends, I need to wait about 5 or secs before the power button will be recognized. After it's first press it seems to first power off the screen, as though it is awake the whole time, but black and inoperable. After the screen thinks it's off, the second press turns it back on. I have also tried other dialers too, but it totally seems like an integrated OS/Firmware issue at this point.
Are you by chance running Greenify? I was having some issues when sleeping system apps. What Xposed modules are you currently running?
No battery apps installed whatsoever. No battery saving modes enabled.

Sorry a bit tired. I just noticed you stated it still happens after you nandroid back to your previous backup. Do you have a screen protector or anything on it?
Try going to Settings/Call and disable the proximity sensor and see if you have the same results
It's not the sensor though b/c it has 0 results with the double tap to wake and also the power hardware button itself. Holding the button, pressing it quickly, tap it multiple times in a row. Additionally, I do not have a screen protector.
