So lately ive been flashing roms like crazy trying to find the perfect one for me, and ive been having some issues with the phone locking up after i locked the screen and trying to get it unlocked again. the haptic buttons light up but the screen stays black. Just now it happened and the camera flash blinked a few times. It may just be a glitch within the rom. Im using Beanstalk 2.5 at the moment by the way, but have read where the power button could be the issue. I've looked at prices online for it and have seen it for $.99 to as much as $40. dont know what the difference could be in them unless they do the work for you., which just curious but how hard/easy is it to replace?
Thanks!
This doesn't sound like the power button at all. Look at vincom's stickies for the symptoms and trouble shooting.

If you are running a CM base rom, CM has a bug where the phone won't wake from sleep. You have to force reboot.

If you just wait about two seconds your screen will come on.

Idk if anybody has really had this happen ever on their android phone. Sometimes the color of my screen will be pink. Now just a while ago it was blue. Like everything is blue. Is this water damage or what?

I never had that issue with mine.
Though, I did have the phantom line at the bottom of the screen when I was running MIUI.

It happens to mine from time to time....first pink a couple of times then blue...freaked out when I first saw it but if I change screen brightness it goes away...doesn't matter what ROM...
Someone posting about this a week or so ago and he said he was unrooted stock....
Btw: I took a screen shot thinking it would come out and I'd post a pic here but the screen was perfect....
Sent from my Samsung Infuse 4G - 1.6ghz
Mine did this when I started using MIUI, until then I never had this problem. Just turning the screen on and off seemed to fix it but I'm curious as to if it's actually hardware or something in the ROM. My infuse isn't that old.
Yeah, it's happened to me about 3 times, 2 yellow, one BRIGHT purple.
It only happens on full brightness too, as soon as you touch the brightness meter, it goes away.
Note to self, set brightness just a notch below full.

Noticed with my Captivate I had this issue with some roms when I was on CM7 and DG. When I would do a update it would go away.
Anyone experiences randomly unresponsive touch screen after wake the device or try to pick up a call?

I don't have your problem. but i did missed two calls due to the issue i mentioned
hoping ATT will release an update, or the AOSP will be perfect soon.
Ok so to start off I am a noon learning as I go so bare with me. But the usual shortcut (pressing home/power) for taking screen shots doesn't seem to work right now. I've only just noticed this since I don't take screen shots too often but I would like to know is there a fix for this? Or did I miss something wen i installed CM10...Other than that it's a solid build and I've enjoyed it so far with no other issues.

That might be a touchwiz feature, i'm not entirely sure. Somebody who's used CM10 on the galaxy should probably chip in

I'm using the Embryo latest update.
One day I'm texting and suddenly my phone turns off. It will erratically turn itself on and off. Sometimes when it turns off, it will just vibrate in spurts continuously until I click the power button. I have re-flashed the phone and same issue.
Anyone know if this is a common problem? If so, any solutions?

You my friend, have power button issues. Usually the phone turns off, vibrates every two seconds, and you have to send it in to samsung. This will probably end up happening to your phone.

Do a battery pull. When you put the battery back in, if it turns on, you may have a stuck power button.

So you mean there are people so uncoordinated they can't pull out 6 screws and use something thin to pop the case.
If they wanna pay cool but its really an easy fix. Just blows my mind people will take the risk to root but won't bother with anything else.

I know when I had power button issues it wasn't stuck or dirty cuz I pulled it apart and cleaned the hell out of it and nothing. Turned out parts in the button was bad. Then someone at samsung screwed it up and didn't do well at his/her saughtering class cuz the next day it went haywire and wouldn't turn on. Had to send it back and yell at some Indians that wouldn't listen to me on the phone on customer service.

When it went black, did you press the power button a couple times fast trying to catch it? It happens to me sometimes on all jb roms.
