lock screen issue on all roms

ok i can reproduce this on multiple roms on multiple phones,
symptoms: when you press the unlock button on your screen it flashes whatever you had on your screen prior to you locking it
how to reproduce
step 1: open up any app
2: lock the screen with the physical button
3 unlock the screen with the same button and it will flash the last thing you had open prior to locking it, then show the actual lock screen
4 without unlocking the screen, turn the screen off by pressing the lock button
5 unlock it again, this time because the last thing that was on the screen was the lock screen itself, it wont flash the apps screen, and the lock screen actually performs faster due to this.
ok, so here is my point, if there was a script the told the system to display the lock screen before turning the screen off and lock it, the wake up time would be significantly decreased. any thoughts or input?
what roms have you seen this on?
im on mosaic and cannot reproduce that. its the lockscreen as soon as i press the button.
on the captivate, stock, cm7, serendipidy, and andromeda,
on htc inspire, stock and rcmix3d, cm7
and it does it on nook color running cm7
Yeah, my stock rooted 2.2 does this.

cant reproduce it on Serendipity 7, I am using the SGSII lockscreen
seems like it comes and goes. does it some times, usually when laggier, but sometimes doesnt...not all the time though...
That's just the last image left in the static screen memory. It would probably take more time to clear the memory than to leave it there. It doesn't happen for me but I have the CRT anim installed, so it blanks it out before shutting off.
doesn't happen
on Nostalgia 1.5 with Glass unlock

[Q] Screen "blackout"

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.

[Q] Problems with low budget tablet

Hi XDA,
Today I bought a tablet, the 10" Tablet PC by Qware, model QW TB-9010.
Hardware looks fine, but I'm having some issues:
First issue is that I can boot the tablet, but when I unlock it, all I see is a black screen with the notification bar at the top which works fine, but the rest is empty and black. When I press the Home button a couple of times, the wallpaper flashes up, I see the appdrawer button but then it crashes to the black screen again, so can't do anything on the device itself.
Next, the screen stopped working, I have to use a mouse to unlock it, I'm trying to fix this with new firmware but thats where we arrive at the biggest problem:
Not in the manual, the manufacturers website, or by just trying, I cannot find out how I get this device in recovery/update mode.
Support is VERY poor for this product, but I'm guessing firmware like Uberoid will work on this device, but can't install this because it doesn't boot in recovery mode or w/e.
So if anyone has any idea how they can help me or have any tips? Please let me know!
I want to fix this thing!
How long did you use this thing ?

[Q] Touchscreen freezing randomly - please help!

Hi, I've been using ViperS 5.1.2 for some time now on my Sensation XE, and it used to work great for me. But since a few days I've got this really annoying freezing problem and I just cannot find a solution.
The touch screen just freezes without any reason, sometimes after using the phone for half an hour, but most of the time within a few seconds after unlocking the screen. When it freezes, the screen won't respond to anything, also not on the back or home button. If I use the on/off button though, the screen will respond again for one or more seconds. This happens randomly; a lot of times I can't even unlock the screen properly, and the rest of the time I only get the screen working normal for a at most 10 seconds. This way it can take a few minutes just getting to the settings menu, for example. The phone does not report any error; after using the on/off button it just goes on where it froze. Also the phone reacts to tilting the screen. Or when playing a video, this just keeps playing normally. So it seems to be purely the screen itself...
I tried a lot to figure out what could be the cause of this problem: uninstalled a lot of recently installed or updated apps, checked the amount of free space/RAM, cleared cache, Dalvik, used nandroid backups to return to a previous (in the past good working) state, tried if removing the sd card would make any difference and finally flashed the rom again. All to no avail; the problem keeps occurring. At first, after trying out a possible solution like the ones I've mentioned, it looks like this did the trick. Sometimes the phone appears to work normal for at most half an hour. But then the problem occurs again, and will at that point occur at a high frequency.
I am out of idea's right now and am getting quite desperate. I need this phone to work properly badly, as I will go on my vacation in a few days and really need to be able to use some of my apps then. So I do hope somebody can help me out here? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Does it do this while connected to the charger or usb.??

Yes, does not make any difference. I found today that the phone is now also acting strange in clockworkmod recovery touch, that's for the first time. Can't properly use the touch screen there either any more, only with hardware buttons. So now I guess this should really be a hardware issue. Maybe the phone is just dying...
Yess its a common thing for our phone to act that way while charging.... It has somtheing to do with its poor grounding. You can find threads to help u with how to solve it.

[Q]Screen doesn't turn off when locking

Hello everyone.
I have a couple of problem with my xperia Z3. The problem is that when i press the side button to lock the phone, the phone get locked but the screen seems to be still on(and then turn completely off after a few seconds) . I mean that even if the phone is locked it's like i am seeing a completely black image. This doesn't always happens with Android KitKat but with the Lollipop upgrade i made yesterday flashing a generic Baltic firmware, the problem got worse! When it happens the screen stays on even after few seconds and it doesn't turn off and i'm forced to restart the phone to "solve" the problem. If it helps, when the phone locks fine the screen turns off immediatly but when the phone has this problem when i press the lock button i can see for a moment the screen locked, with the clock, the padlock icon, the fast dial icon and the fast camera icon ecc and then the screen turn black(but still on) like "something is slowing/blocking the phone from getting locked"
The second problem that i have is that sometimes when i make a call or recieve one when i put the phone to my ear the screen doesn't turn off and the tousch screen still works making me end the call unintentionally touching the screen with my ear for example. I haven't had this problem yet with Lollipop, but I used to have it with KitKat. Anyway this is the less important problem that i'd like to solve because even if the phone should work proprely by itself i can always accept the call and then lock the screen with the side button "solving" the problem of unintentionally ended calls. But the first problem really bothers me a lot and i'd really like to know how to solve it.
Does anyone have at least one of this two problems and knows how to solve them? Thank you !
I'm sorry for my english and i hope i've explained myself well. I've just restarted the phone so the problem at the moment doesn't persist but the next time it will happend i will make a short video to make you see exactly what happens or if you think that this two problem could be caused by an app just tell me and I will write you a list off the app that i've installed.
**Edit: I'm really sorry, i haven't read that this was the wrong section for questions, could someone move it to the right one? Thanks.
