This issues just happened a few days ago, and I honestly have no idea why. Here are the issues.
> Unable to do drop down notifications
What I mean by this is I can't do the traditional swipe down from status bar to reveal notifications. However, this does work when my phone is in landscape mode.
> 1-2 minute delay when turning on phone
What I mean by this is when I turn on my phone, I can't interact with it (buttons don't light up and tapping the screen doesn't do anything), until about a minute or two later, which is a slightly irritating issue if I need to quickly reply to a message or call.
I know it's not due to my screen, as every bit is responsive but i'm having this wierd issues. Any help is appreciated greatly. :good:

I've noticed this since I got my Captivate - wondering if anyone know anything about it or if they are having the same issue. When I'm using an app (any app really - camera, gallery, market, Jewels, etc) - the phone will do it's mild vibration for haptic feedback and I can see what appears to be the home button blinking, then it will close the app and go right to the home screen - all this is with my hand nowhere near the home screen. Has anyone else had this happen to them?
One of the reviews I read mentioned this problem. Apparently it is a production problem for a small number units and you will need to exchange it
Interesting - thanks very much - now I can stop trying to figure it out and just take it back to AT&T for an exchange.
I just noticed the same behavior with my phone. However, this is already my second Samsung Captivate! The first one would periodically would spam the home button over and over after unlocking the phone and essentially become unusable.
Ugh guess I'll have to swap it out for a 3rd time.
RPK.Chris: do you have a link to that review?
It's in the main phonedog review but the behavior is demonstrated starting around 6 min 16 sec I think..

Looks like I'm stuck with it till at least the 25th - they don't have any replacements coming in until then at my local stores.
I've been having the same issue, it's bugged out and starting spamming the home key on 3 occasions in my first day of use (just got it this afternoon).
Had mine swapped out today... so far so good

I got mine swapped out yesterday after work - went to another local store and they had actually just got a new shipment in so they gave me one from the new batch. Interestingly it seems that not only is that issue resolved but the phone seems to be snappier than it was. It's nice to finally get to experience the phone in full!
Had the same problem with my first phone.
swapped it out on tuesday and no problems so far!

Well, having used it for awhile now, my new unit seems to have the same problem again except it spams the search button instead of home, and it happens a lot less frequently. Guess I'll have to have it swapped again.

Yes, twice. Both times have been while an app was firing up/loading and my screen turned off (because I have my screen timeout at 15 seconds). It would just freeze and not respond to anything, then the random haptic feedback (I don't even have this turned on) and I'm back at the homescreen. It appears to reboot, except without the splash screen. It does media scanning, auto update of time, and the signal comes in.
Hi there,
I have 2 important questions regarding my HTC Sensation phone, I have this mobile now for like 6 months and it's a really nice phone.. but the last time it's going weird now and then.
I'm still using the stock rom HTC provided with my phone, I updated to all available updates.
My problems are:
1. Camera is not starting anymore
When I try to start my camera app it's going to a black screen and then pushed back to my homescreen. I tried the methods mentioned on XDA already, like shutdown the phone and pull out the battery and pull it back in and start the phone again.
Then I tried third-party apps, like CameraMX. But the program tells me it can't open the camera!
2. The lockscreen not responding sometimes when receiving a call
When I try to drag the ring out of it's position it is not moving. And nothing is responding until I push the standby hardware button on the top of the phone twice and then it is all working again.
These 2 problems are very annoying while using my sensation daily.
I hope someone has a clue!
Because I searched a lot on google and this forum, but I didn't found any proper solution.
Thanks in advanced!
At random times when I tap the thumbnail for recent app the wrong app will open up. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution?
I'm running the factory ROM and I'm not rooted. I recently did a factory reset and the problem still occurs.
I don't have a solution, but i have also noticed that happening. At first i thought it was my imagination and that i was just absent mindedly hitting the wrong app.

I can confirm the issue. Fortunately it doesn't occur frequently, but it must definitively due to some bug in the touchwiz.
Well, it does happen quite frequently on my device; like 4-5 times a day. This is somewhat frustrating.
It mainly occurs when I frantically switch between apps, hence at the worst possible times... Any help?
(For referencing, as those keywords did not popup in my googling: app switcher, wrong app)
If you wait 1-2 seconds after hitting the switch task button before selecting a task, the bug does not exhibit itself.
Couldn't find any reference about this problem on Google either.
Would love to see it fixed, it's a PITA!
My solution is to press about half a second before releasing, if you press long enough you get up a menu though so somewhere before the app gets a blue frame around to the menu pops up.
Also, I've noticed that it doesn't accure as frequently if at all when using the pen.. But maybe that's just mine, and I don't really like using the pen for such "browsing" so it's not really a solution.

I received OTA yesterday and so far found one bug. There is a black screen comes up randomly. Top and bottom bars are visible but I can't do anything to get out of it. The only thing that works is restart. I can't pinpoint the app that might be causing it. It happened while updating apps or using Firefox. Anybody else having this issue?

Did you wipe your cash after updating? I had experienced several bags after the OTA update too, but i cleaned cash from the recovery mode and now everything works just fine.
Did wiped cache from recovery mode yesterday and it was OK. Today the black screen issue is back. It's quite annoying having to restart.

Hi there, I am currently having the same bug on my Nexus 4 device.
It appears the same way, with the Softbuttons visibile and the top bar still able to be pulled down. Plus that there is no option if I restart to get my SIM card recognized. Pretty annoying when you have an encrypted nexus device and have to wait 2 minutes to restart with a 40% chance of NOT getting the black screen again.
My assumption is that it has something to do with the kernel. Any suggestions/confirmations?
Best regards

Same problem here... black screen with only softbuttons visible and notification bar working.
I think the problem occurs when an application is in full screen mode (no softbuttons visible) and you do a little swipe to make the softbuttons appear... It must be something with the way the softbuttons overlap the screen, I think.
Any help?
I am also seeing this problem on my Nexus 5 which I flashed the factory image with full wipe. I have had it when exiting apps and also when an app is open it can just happen. If i swipe up from the bottom sometime I get a flash of the screen during the animation so it is as if a layer is over the screen. I hope this is fixed as it is random, this morning it happened and after a reboot i logged in and it happened before I opened an app, reboot, then happened again a few mins later, but after a 3rd reboot has been ok???
For everyone that is experiencing this problem... do you have Tasker installed?
I disabled tasker and since then I don't have this problem... so far.
Still happening once in awhile and I do have Tasker.

It happens to me. My current theory is that, in my case, it may have to do with a profile manager I use which turns the lock screen pattern lock on and off depending on where I am.

I also have tasker, don't want to disable it as I find it too useful, can you keep us all informed if it cures the issue.

I also find tasker very useful.. but I think it was causing the problem. No more black screens since then.
To try to narrow it down even further... do you have a profile to enable/disable the lockscreen in certain situations?

I do use tasker to disable the lock screen, I wish that the smart lock would completley disable the lock screen, and not just the secure section. I will take all the lock screen options out of my tasks and reboot, will test for a few days.
I tested over the weekend and had no black screens with all tasker/secure settings lock screen disables turned off, I left all other actions on , so I think you are correct. actualy got on OK using the smart unlock, although when in my house sometimes GPS is lost so it will relock, but not a real issue. Thanks for the heads up
I seen threads about thoughts of the update but I figured this thread to be more specific on the issues your experience on nought beta: bugs, freezes, force closes, lag, etc.
Posting issues or suggestions here will be useless to the Samsung team. To give feedback on the beta, just open the "Samsung Members" app and provide your feedback there. This way the team can actually address it.
Aside from standby battery drain, it's been pretty smooth.
Oh, the keypad sometimes can't keep up with my typing lol. That's about it.

I am still getting the sound cutting out bug that was seen in Marshmallow.... ie; sound on YouTube videos, etc will play for a few seconds and then cut out to silence. Have tried all the "solutions" offered but it still happens.
*Very frustrating.
I have the battery drain problem too.

I've reported this to Samsung member but in camera when you look at the last pic you took it shows last image of what you downloaded or received also. If you downloaded something after to took your last picture that is. Only pictures taken with the camera should be in here. Note 7 had this same issue.

That is strange. Battery life on mine has been the best i have ever gotten with this phone.
Probably poor battery other than that running great

Did you factory reset after the install?
Encrypted SD keeps popping up.
The "Clear All" button in recents is in a bad location (top right, better at bottom right)
Noticed that double tap AOD screen can wake the screen but only if you Dtap the notification or music playing. Suggested that we get full double tap anywhere to wake option.
Default e-mail does not have marked as read or delete options in notification bar.
Battery drain faster.
It may just be me but My Knox seems broken. I changed password and everything but on last attempt before lockdown but does not work.
All reported to Sammy except my Knox which may be a user error
I've had GREAT battery life, no drain.
Only issue is when I download an APK through Chrome and tap the notification to install then Package Disabler crashes. If I install it with Root Explorer it installs fine.
Android System battery hogging. Whopping 40%!
I average 8% an hour and have an average 5hr screen on time per charge cycle I think a lot of people some have some rogue apps
Battery life is much better! The main issue I'm having is no sound or vibration notification when I get a text. Sometimes I loose my data connection.
Looks like google voice doesn't work with the update. How do I report this ? I can't get any outgoing call to work through google voice

Go into the settings with for it to turn off, then manually turn it on. Also I recommend leaving it on as well as Bluetooth. There is a known bug with both of those and leaving them both on fixes the battery drain issue you will have if you try to turn them off and they keep automatically turning on/off on their own.

my battery drain issue seems to be gone.
I will however turn on the bluetooth to see if it helps/.
Haven't seen this posted, hopefully i didn't miss the post though.
When playing a game using the "Game Launcher", I always played with "No Alerts during Game" selected. But since I upgraded to the Nougat Beta, Facebook Messenger somehow still sends me messages even though it should be blocked.
Anyone else with this issue?
