I've been running into an odd glitch with the lock screen every now and then. The visuals on the lockscreen are shifted up halfway, and the bottom half is black.
If that doesn't make sense(ha ha, pun), the ring pull is in the center of the screen, and the top half is pushed off the screen.
The touch spots for the icons and ring are still at the bottom, however. So I need to press in the blackness below and slide from there. Everything animates properly, but it's rather clearly not right. Plus, anything I have set to display on the screen (weather, clock, etc) isn't visible and so kinda useless. Changing lockscreen types doesn't seem to clear it, I have to do a restart.
Anyone else run into this before? I'm willing to bet a factory reset cleans this up, but I'd like to leave that as a last ditch effort.
I would suggest resetting the device back to factory. At least all of your apps would re-sync to the phone.

I was changing ringtones today and the display went off because I stopped for a second. I went to turn it back on and the lock screen had the lock at mid screen and wouldn't unlock. Had to pull the battery.

Even tho the ring appears in the middle, you can unlock it just like its at the bottom and it will unlock. Mine has done simular where there bottom half is just black.
Yes this happens to me too sometimes. not often though. Once i restart the phone it goes back to normal. not a big issue for me.

Has anyone else had issues with waking up the phone?
Every so often when I hit the power button to wake the phone, the screen turns on but looks super glitchy for a second or so, then shows the normal unlock screen.
When I unlock the phone, it instantly turns the screen black. The phone is still "on" as I can push icons, etc. If i push home the phone still vibrates but the screen will not "re-awake" unless I push the power off and on again. This has been happening quite a bit and is annoying to say the least. I also seem to be having in phone calls with the light sensor as the screen goes black just as I am about to push push buttons while I am in a call.
Is this just me or are others affected by this. I didn't see this issue discussed within all the other reboot/glitches threads.....
Mine is a little lagy when unlocking and occasionally I get a weird squiggly looking screen for a moment, then it is fine.
I assumed it was because I have a SetCPU profile set to 216 with a priority of 100 when the screen is off.
Mine when I unlock it it stays on the lock screen. The phone is still "unlocked", but it shows the lock screen and it doesn't change no matter how many times I lock and unlock. It is very annoying. I got it on CM7, Bionix, and the GB leak. I went back to stock 2.2.2 just because of this reason. Anyone know what it could be?

Hi everyone,
I read about screen issues and unlock problems. The one I have is slightly different. During regular work, no matter what I do, the screen shuts off every few seconds (or a little bit longer, not regulary). Buttons on the bottom works and it seems that the touch screen is still active but i can't turn the screen on. Then I have to push the upper button to lock the screen and press it again to unlock it.
I was searching the forums to solve it but I haven't found anything similar to my problem.
Soft is updated to 2.3.4 and it didn't help
thx
Tom
You haven't set the screen timeout to be kite like 15 second have you?
Setting...display
Swyped from HTC Desire S using XDA Premium
of course it's not the screen timout. It's set on 45 seconds. The "blackouts" are not regular, sometimes it's after 5 sec, somtimes after 30
any ideas?
I still have the same problem, so bump...
Could be an app you installed causing the problem. Hard to say.
I would probably factory reset it, and see if it fixes the problem first.
One of my phones is an HTC Surround that i don't use that often but still want it to work. To the issue though, each time the phone is turned on (not powered on, just woken) the screen refuses to work on the right side. In order to get past the lock screen you have to swipe up on the left side. After that the right screen becomes 'active' only after you swipe the left screen again. The home button and the search button on the phone only work after sliding the left side of the screen down and hitting the back button, once that task is accomplished the entire phone works perfectly and no more issues develop. This has been driving me crazy trying to figure out why its doing this. I reset the phone twice, both through the reset in the settings and doing a hard reset. When neither of those attempts worked i put it in bootloader and flashed this release (http://www.filefactory.com/file/b48...S_1.03.502.07_5.51.09.06_22.30.50_RELEASE.exe) to it and it still continues with this wierd touch screen issue.
I could probably just throw the phone away and not care but i'd prefer to fix it and sell it. Plus its driving me insane trying to figure out the issue.

As per subject.
My missus phone is having problems.
The lights for the homr, back, menu and search buttons and also the call and end call buttons lights are constantly on. The stay on regardless of screen brightness, screen on or off or phone locked or unlocked. Also the keyboard lights dont light up at all either.
She doesnt want to factory reset as she will loose everything :/ and she doesnt want the hassle of bavking everything up etc.
Just wondered if anyone had come across this and had a simple fix?
Ive tried pulling the battery and rebooting to no avail. Her phone is completely stock, unrooted and locked just as she bought it.

Might be an app that overrides the system settings? Had this once while I was testing an app that my buddy build... Was fixed after deleting the app...
I've had this phone for maybe a week now and the second screen doesn't work when the main screen is off. I think it's a loose connection because if I press down to the right of the front camera the screen works but as soon as i let off pressure it goes blank again. AT&T will most likely replace it but it makes me a little sad. I'd open it up and and fix it but I don't want to void any warranties
Go to settings and scroll to where it says second screen. Click on second screen and make sure both toggles are switched to on. Hope this helps

I tried it all. I factory reset, toggled the slide bars, and pulled battery. At&t sent me a new one without any questions.
Good deal
