Quite frequently when I hit the red button the screen goes off and then instantly comes back on. If I repeatedly hit the red button it just keeps going off and then popping back on. Sometimes it does go off, sometimes it doesn't.
Other times it goes off and then later for no apparent reason it comes back on.
Any ideas?
Turn up your backlight
It's a bug. I know it sounds ridiculous, but this happens when your screen brightness is set to 40% or less. Turn the brightness up, and the problem goes away.
Nice, I turned up my brightness and so far so good...
Thanks.

Maybe its normal but I have smart stay on so if i am looking at the screen it dims but doesn't turn off. This happens even with auto brightness, power saving and auto adjust screen tone turned off. the browser also has auto brightness turned off. the only thing i can think is maybe there is a conflict with quick settings which also has auto brightness turned off. if i am not looking nat eh screen it dims and in a few seconds shuts off.
what mine does...
Same here. I even start blinking and moving my eyes to see if it will stay on. I know I've got to look like an idiot.
Currently not being productive on my S3.
I have been playing with smart stay as well, but I haven't seen that it keeps the screen on any longer ... maybe I just haven't had enough patience.
smart stay does keep my screen on but it does not prevent the screen from dimming. I think the phone automatically dims right before its about to shut off even if i have all dimming settings turned off. right before it shuts off smart stay keeps it on but only after the screen dims thus i am stuck with a dim screen.
As the title suggests, sometimes when my tf700 has had a long period of being idle if I go to use it and press the power button nothing will happen. I can still hear it functioning though cause I've accidentally taken screen shots when trying to reboot it when this happens, the screen is just black and I have to reset it.
Any suggestions?

Try switching WiFi sleep off and see if it helps.
Wifi sleep off?
I have that happen to me more than a few times. I just end up hitting power button and just tapping the corner. It works sometimes. but it's not always faster than just rebooting. Although, if you're going to reboot, just hold the power button till device shuts off.
What I think is happening is not that it's not waking, the display is just not turning on. I noticed this by plugging in the charger, which always turns on the display and device.
Yeah, the display isn't coming back up. I've noticed that too because I can still hear events occur (ie: unplugging the charger).
Another user on here tipped me off that it could be that it's in power save mode and the dimmer is COMPLETELY down, if you bump the brightness dimmer up just a hair, even 1 notch, it'll stop it from doing it, or at least it's stopped it so far for me since I changed it.
Why start two threads on the same issue?
Noticed 2x today I walked away for an hour and came back to a bright screen. Both times I had just plugged it in and left it on the desk. I turned the sleep timer down to 15s and experimented a bit but couldn't replicate it...
I also noticed when it auto sleeps, there is no screen lock sound. Though I do hear it when I click the power button. The option is turned on in settings, and I remember my 300's all made the lock sound 5 seconds after the screen turned off. Maybe the 700s don't do it? Or maybe there's a problem with the hardware or not really sleeping?
Does yours make the lock sound when it locks after an automatic sleep?
Please can someone just turn up their volume and let their tf700 stock ROM go to sleep with the lock sound enabled? Tell me if you hear the lock sound when it AUTOMATICALLY goes to sleep? (Without clicking the power button)
I only have a couple days to exchange and need to know if this is normal for the 700
Again, the lock sound only plays when I click the power button, Not when it auto sleeps and locks. The tf300 always played the audio.
Does anyone else get this issue:
Sometimes, when I try to unlock my phone, the screen remains black. Sometimes the capacative buttons light up, but not all the time. Double tapping doesn't turn the screen on, pressing the power button doesn't turn the screen on.
I just press and hold the power button when it happens to make the phone restart, and then it starts optimizing all the apps on start up as well. This has happened 3-4 times in the last day. Very annoying. Any ideas how to fix this would be much appreciated!
When I start my Moto G2 (XT1038) from cold, the entire boot animation plays and the home screen shows and the phone works fine. The moment the phone is locked and I press the power button to turn the screen on and entire my pin, the area near the microphone heats up rapidly to a point where I can not touch the spot for more than a few seconds. The screen stays blank though. After a few minutes of inactivity the area cools down. But if I try to turn the screen on the same thing happens. Meanwhile, I can hear the alarms I have set in my phone, go off at designated times, can hear the incoming phone call rings, SMS / message notifications, etc. But cannot get the screen to come on after the initial bootup. Can not turn off the phone either, same thing happens. Battery lasts as usual. No heating issues while charging. Any ideas why this might be happening? It is running Marshmellow at the moment, and the update happened many weeks before this issue. Auto-updates are turned off.
Not sure if I need to replace the display or battery or some other hardware.
