PLz Help my phone behaving abnormally - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys...strange things are going on in my phone from last 2 months..at first it used to react as if the back softkey is prseed..it used to bring me back to home screen through all screens i passed to open a app (like setting->wireless and..->internet seting..->apn..)and reversly it sent me back to home without letting me to change any data.....then it used to act as if the option/search soft key is pressed..like if the home screen is not altered for 5 sec..the google search option opens...many times pressing home key took a screen shot...and my touch screen started to be unresponsive...firstly i could use my for but sometimes the screen remained unresponsive which could be fixed by pressing power button and locking the screen agin..then it used to response...now a days the phone hardly responces 2-5 times a day and accepts only one selection(like i may open app drawer but cant se;ect any app its frozen or open the phone app but no number could be pressed..its frozen)
i have flashed almost every rom but none fix the problem...recovery mode key test does not detect my 2 soft keys..
...samsung care is verry laggy here ..and irresponsible..last time they took my samsung j 150 and returned it after 3 months with a new defect of speaker blown and a huge billl..
plz help me... thank you

On my device, if I put the phone in my pocket with the screen facing my thigh, i tend to sweat a bit in long pants and thus the phone gets some sweat on the screen. After wiping it off, the phone would not be very responsive. I would pull everything out and leave for a while, I assume water had gone in, then it worked. So is something similar happening?

First of all..THANKS for your reply..yes..u r very right..even in early days(near abt 3 months..when problem started) the phone used to be more unresponsive after taking it out of my pocket..but pulling off didnt fix anything..a funny fact (may be logical due to drynesss) is keeping the phone in a.c room makes it work for a while(not the soft keys..every thing else)..so your guess is right..but pulling out all didnt help me..

sorry..but i left my phone for 3 hours after pulling..a little better screen ulocks but then keeps on giving haptic feedback as if search/option softkey is pressed..tomorrow going to leave it in the sun..
i forgot to say..my phone used to freeze a little or lot from the very first of purchasing while charging..removing the charger fixed all

I faced the same problem guys... its due to touch screen irresponsive error..
U need to get it replaced.. as i do..

Then your problem may not be the same. Maybe a hairdryer will do. If it still doesn't work then maybe it's your touch panel. My phone works perfectly at home

Me too think that its not the touch sceen..but something due to the softkeys...i have been observing my phone from the first day of fault...but may be the touch panel is faulty...not sure..any way thanx for your active responce...

I think you should clean up your phone and then cover the gaps between the glass and the chrome colored plastic design.
Try it?

bye thhe way my phone is a white GTI5801(indian version of I5800)..

This can happen also due to bad flash or kernel malfunction...due to wifi panic
Try flashing zero fill tar and flash fresh rom.

Deep sleep kernel panic makes the phone unresponsive when exposed to some heat and moisture... generally a clean flash would solve the problem...
zero fill is a tar file that helps clean the system by removing all the previous system data..just flash any rom after flashing zero fill.tar normally.
also you have to take care that screen stays out of sweat(moisture)

sorry,tried your advice...but no luck...thanx anyway....(i dunno why the touch buttons not working???i am sure they are the culprits..)

Unconventional, but if you wanna check the softkeys you could open up the phone (it's really easy if you use a guitar pick) and disconnect the buttons. Phone should still boot. If the behaviour is better, you could swap the softkeys for a replacement and problem solved. I take no responsibility for this. I myself have changed some electrical parts including the display, but I cannot say for sure that the phone boots without the softkeys connected without taking permanent damage. But you sound like it can only get better^^

Odd problem

Okay for a good month and a half I have been having an odd problem. Sometimes randomly my phone will start glitching and viberating randomly like I'm pressing the soft buttons below the sreen and sometimes that menu comes up like I pressed the menu button. Not the launcher. Ans also I can be in gallery and select a photo and it will viberate like I hit the back button and it will go back and I have to select it a few times before it stops. What could it be? It even done it on froyo
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
That happens to me every once in a while, the whole system will just hang and the menu will come up or the recent apps thing will come up multiple times and the phone will vibrate, then it just goes back to normal.

Could be a bad flash, or some app has created a conflict, seems to me I read there are a couple of apps that caused this. You could just reflash a different rom, see if that fixes it.

From my experience you can get some oddities such as this as a result of a bad flash (which re flashing would correct as stated above) so I'd say your assumption is probably correct and your problem may be with the hardware.
I don't want to ask the obvious question but no one has. Have you dropped it any? Or has it been exposed to any kind of water. I had a phone freak-out on me when usb port got a little wet from some rain.
Just when you think you have it idiot proof, they come out with a better idiot.
not been wet and its not a bad flash. Right now I'm trying out froyo again and it done it again last night. I'm a uscellular agent. And I have yet to have anyone else come I. With the same problem

I believe this happens on an undervolted kernel un areas of extremely low signal. Recently, it seems to be happening on any kernel. I hope this get's addressed in our real froyo release.

It happened when I was on 2.1 as well, Usually only when I had a bunch of things running. Im an agent too! xD
OK my phone stopped for a few days I haven't had a case on it. Then today I pit my case back on it and it started doing it earlier for the first time in days. The case doesn't over the front of the phone at all
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Yea, that sounds like it may be the case :s I've had it happen a couple times, but I thought it might just be like my fingerprint is over the button and keeps presseing it. I just wipe my finger over the bottom of the phone and it stops. Don't know if its the same thing.
Sent from my Froyo Mesmerize
I think you are right I've had the same issue and if youlook at the soft keys when it happens you'll see that one of the buttons thinks it's being pressed I think it's just a hardware issue cause like you said when you run your finger over the keys it stops.
Also, similar problem every once in a while when I'm trying to swype during a swype it acts as if my finger lost contact with the screen but I definitely didn't lift my finger abd it happens several times in a row until I lock the screen turning the touch screen off it seems to reset the touch sensors.

or it's a ghost, woooooooo!
I've experienced this issue before, although very rarely. Every time it has been the menu button and it always seemed to be in colder weather. I use a thin screen protector I picked up at a USCC store. Happens even more rare with EA11 leak however my screen brightness changes (occasionally) when I end phone calls and am in the middle of an app

Are you over clocking? When did the problem start? What, if anything, did you do to the phone (flash from stock Froyo to another ROM, over clock, etc.) prior to the problem?
Ok when i got the phone new it was doing it then i attempted to put gingerbread bootloaders in but i failed lol i had icbinb gb with no cwm and had the rainbow screen and the problem went away for a couple of weeks till i got the gingerbread bootloaders correct then i flash icbinb gb rom and it started doing it again
With oc and no oc uv and no uv it still does it

If it was doing it when you first got the phone I'd say it's a hardware issue. Any chance you can flash it back to stock & return/exchange it?
No i got this phone from ebay a private seller
Sounds like an issue that software can't fix.

Sounds like someone knowingly sold you a bum sgs4g...sucks. If it only happens when it gets hot then you need to keep it cool...screen brightness down, wifi off etc...I agree with the previous posts that it sounds like a hardware issue, if the battery is getting super hot you might get lucky with a new one that doesn't set off the crazy screen problem. Battery ain't cheap though....

He could also try replacing the screen. It would probably cost a lot in total.
I dont think its the battery cause i use my battery from the vibrant and same thing the battery dont get hot just the touch screen but like i said before when i flashed the wrong gb kernel the problem went away then I fixed the gb the right way with CWM and now the problem started again
Even if you don't have a warranty, Tmobile will still send a replacement, buy there will be a fee. This is a defect. You can go to Samsung directly if you get a bad rep.

Problem With Proximity Sensor/Screen Freeze

Hi,
I have a strange but a small problem with my phone.
Its with the proximity sensor and screen freeze.
The problem is that when i make a call, put the phone near my ear the screen goes off (Which is normal). But when i hang up the call, screen never comes back to life. Its total black... and when i tried calling to the phone....... it WORKS.....but then again the screen is total black. it doesn't comes back to life.....
I tried pressing the home button....No Luck.
Tried pressing the power button....No Luck.
All that i could notice is a red light in the proximity sensor. That's it.
I am on a stock ROM 2.3.5, Indian Firmware. No Root, No Custom ROM.
I started facing this issue after i gt this phone from SSC for motherboard replacement. Before it, i had used it for a month, it worked far well.
Moreover this issue occurs on a very random basis, like 4-5days once.
All i could do is plug the battery out and plug in.
The below posted link also the same problem, but with no solution
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195858
Try doing a factory reset.
If that doesn't work, reflash your firmware.

I used to have that problem in the stock Indian rom too.. But it went away since I upgraded to stock 2.3.6 xwla4 austria rom. I've rooted and flashed titanium and still no problem, so I think it's a rom fault.

Ok people...
But when i had bought this fone, i used it for a month, i never witnessed such prob.
Its nly after the motherboard replacement.
So it makes me think, whether other parts of fone are manipulated or watever....
If its a software glitch, not a issue. it shldnt b a hardware issue.....!!!

Doesn't seem like a hardware issue. Hardware problems are generally more consistent.

I too have started facing this problem started since a month back but appears randomly. It might have happened around three to four times by now. I am on stock rom 2.3.5 too.
Even i had the same problem. But never appeared again after a factory reset. Maybe ICS update can fix every bugs.
I have exactly the same issue, moving to xwla4(Titanium) didn't solve it but haven't experienced any freezes since I moved to zcla1(glx-r rom). Its still early stages though, I switched just 8-9 days back, keeping my fingers crossed
However, I would like to share my findings
1. The phone restarts on looooong press power button(10 sec appx), so no need to take out the battery (At least it worked for me)
2. Its not just Galaxy-R, the problem occurs with many phones, especially on Custome kernels/Roms. It can most likely be configured by Proximity sensor calibration in the kernel. See this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=951858
But the application posted here doesnt work on our kernel right now, not for me atleast. Maybe ardatdat can help us out with kernel changes for proximity sensor recalibration in his next release.

Hmmm... I am going through a similar problem... I've noticed that when this unresponsiveness occurs and I keep my phone for charging the touch becomes normal again. But as soon as I disconnect the problem comes back.
I had this issue before too. When I was on TheFrankestains miui v10.5... And now I am on RemICS v2.
I'll like to mention here that on v1 of RemICS I didn't face this issue. In v2 the developer did mention a change in the kernel.
Also another er thing with the unresponsiveness the bln is acting weird too. Now I don't know what to conclude from all this.
And ya when it had occurred before I did take it to the customer service. And all they did was remove my screen guard and reflash the stock. :what:
The problem disappeared that time but it has resurfaced again. :sly:

Even I'm facing this issue and thats the exact reason i'm not going to service center. I doubt its a H/W issue cause the screen does work! If it had been a H/W problem then the shouldnt have been any touch response!
Its might be similar to backlight issue but too bad we're facing it on stock aswell.
I had posted a logcat in the dev ICS thread but no response from anyone.
If there are more people facing this issue then please come forward.
I got only one phone. . And i cant use it.

I'm on ICS Alpha V6 . I get this problem occasionally.
Problem occurs when i get a call and the touch becomes unresponsive. Not all the times but sometime. If i lock the screen and unlock it becomes proper. Sometimes it takes 2-3 locks and unlocks. Weird. Never had this problem in stock before .
Everytime this problem starts after a call. Happens on stock as well as custom Roms. Can't figure out if it's software or hardware problem. But the touch becomes normal when the phone's kept on charging.
Anyways going back to the customer service tomorrow. Will tell them to change the touch panel.

Probably Hardware, i am using RemICS v2 and NOT experiencing this issue on both my device and my sister's device (tried the call thing too)
I advise you guys to go to the service center (without a screen protector) and with the stock rom (so they don't have to flash anything) so they see it live, and hence there's no point of flashing stock again (over stock lulz) they'll probably change the screen for you.
i have the same problem now.. i dunno if i will ever get this phone fixed. my warranty's expired for a month.

It is a Hardware issue.
I gave my phone to the Service Centre yesterday. I called them today to check on the status. They said it's a hardware issue so they'll give it tomorrow. Let's hope for the best...
BTW I will get an extended warranty on the replaced part, won't I?

And the problem is back. Not entirely though.
After deep sleep if I unlock the phone, the touchscreen doesn't work. I have to lock and unlock to get it working.
After unlocking, once the display goes off, the menu and back keys stop working. Have to lock unlock again.
Had flashed cm9 stock kernel yesterday morning since gps isn't working for me in UCv15. Didn't face any problem yesterday after flashing stock kernel.

Got my phone back today. They replaced my touch panel. Everything fine for now.
Let's see if it really was the problem.
Back to ICS.

A question I want to ask, do the ppl who got this problem use a back cover?

by back cover you mean protective case? if so, yes i do!
and the touch panel means the digitizer right?

[SOLVED] Phone restarts regularly on every rom

Hi everyone, my desire s is acting strange since few days back.. it keeps on restarting for no reason. At first I thought its due to kernel updates to modified kernel 3. But then I installed reaper gingerbread. It restarted when I opened camera.
Then I installed Nik's project x . Still same problem sometimes when I open camera or other heavy application.
It restarts continuously 5-6 times without completely booting and battery drains to 10-15% from 80-90% within 5 minutes..
I've not got this problem when in charging mode..
I'm now using ice_ds 4.3
If anyone have same problem before , is there a solution to this?
Thanks in advance..

I get this too on all custom ROMS.. sometimes if I knock the phone a certain way it resets.. so it must be hardware related.
Can you let me know what your 'SOLUTION' is? All I see if the cause. Thx

my solution: buy new battery :laugh:
Put a bit of paper between the battery and the holder clip, that fixed it for me to keep the battery in place.
