[Q] - General Questions and Answers

Since I've installed this beautiful rom "[Rom] [PMEM] [RC #1.2] [Arc/s] [KitKat] [Official] [AORP - 4.4.2]" I noticed that when I put my device in stand-by (pushing the power button only once), the display of my arc-s doesn,t really turn off. I can see it isn't really black, but there is a light in the background. After several attempts i can finally have a black screen. What could be the problem? May this inconvenience drain my battery?

Sorry for the wrong title.
I have an arc s, but i haven't a problem with the power button. In fact if i flash another custom rom I don't have this problem?

[Q] Screen won't wake up?

My screen would not wake up, I flashed Cyanogen Mod, the latest version, but as soon as my screen goes off and I tried to wake it, it'll just stay in a lighted black screen forever, nothing happens, it wont wake or respond to buttons so I have to pull battery. It didn't happen on just this rom, I tried other roms as well. And same results, is it my phone or rom? I just got the phone today.
Which rom are you running? And did you flash a custom kernel?
Try a complete wipe and reflashing, but don't restore any apps, if you do, and see if the problem persists.

I was running the latest version of Cyanogenmod. And no, I did not flash a custom kernel. I've already tried a complete wipe and flashed the rom like so many times. Like Cyanogenmod would install, but as soon as I put the phone to sleep and I hit the home button to try to wake it, it would be stay as a lighted black screen. The phone is responding to the button but it seems like the screen would not go on, the light for the 4 buttons lights up, but the screen doesn't display anything, just backlight. Please help, this is confusing me.
Set the phone to not sleep, it will just dim the light to near 0% brightness. I used to have this problem too on some nightlies and stable cm releases even and doing the above worked for me. I also bumped minimum cpu speed to 500-800 instead of 300, which lagged too much imho.

You say you press the home button when you turn the screen off and the buttons light up? Or did you mean when you pressed the power button?
When I press on the power button to wake it up, it just gives me a black screen. However the buttons light up when I touch them just the screen wont display anything.

That happened to me once. Did you wipe "system" in CWM before installing the rom?
Same Issue
Did you ever find a fix for this problem? My G2x just stopped coming on and I never changed any settings or anything. I've wiped davlik & user data; installed stock and custom roms, but every time the screen turns off the power button fails to wake the phone up. No lights flash or anything. I've found others who have the same problem but I haven't discovered any solutions. I'm guessing this must be a hardware problem since the power button does work to initially turn on the device and lock it but can't wake it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm currently running a rooted stock rom with the v21y BB that's been ICS-ified

I've found this issue to exist of literally EVERY build of CM that I've every used on ANY android device. I can't stand it. I finally stopped flashing CM all together because I hate not being able to wake up my device. NO OTHER ROM has done this before. Doesn't matter the model. Here's all the models that exibit this behavior that I've tested with.
Kindle Fire - CM9, CM10 and CM10.1
Galaxy 7 tab 2 - CM10, CM10.1 and CM10.2
Samsung Epic 4g (Galaxy S1) - CM7, CM9, CM10, CM10,1
Galaxy S3 Sprint- CM10, CM10.1
Galaxy S4 Sprint - CM10, CM10.1 and now CM10.2
That's very interesting. CM... I ended up sending the phone to LG to fix. I have a GS2 now so I gave the phone to my father. It runs great now.
sulotion to screen not waking up on cyanogenmod
I was having the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy note 2. I'm running cyanogenmod 11. I solved the issue by going into setting then display and lights and unchecking proximity wakeup. I hope this can help someone else.
Thank you a lot man! I was really in panic mode.
Not Waking up
This problem started once I have upgraded to official Lollipop. When I press the power button, the screen doesn't wake-up immediately. I had to press many times the power button to get the screen comes.

[Q] REMICS UI crahes & need Reboot

Well first of all thanks to REMICS team for this great ROM .. clearly the best so far
Link:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695175
Leaving the known issues there is only one problem that is getting to my nerve and that is when my phone UI stops working
I can't even unlock the phone as the lock screen doesn't appear. The only option i have is to reboot by long pressing the power key.
No one seem to have reported this bug yet so I am guessing its just with my phone or has anyone faced this problem yet?? If yes than
any help would be deeply appreciated because i don't want to change this ROM.

I am also using RemICS. I am not sure if what i am experiencing is the same, but nevertheless here are the details. Sometimes when I try to unlock the screen doesn respond. Just stays black. I usually press the power button and the screen becomes active again. Next time, just try pressing the power button and see if the screen responds. Just a check.
Yes exactly the screen remains black but the problem is that it doesn't appear even after pressing the power key or any soft key... As i Said i have to reboot the phone...

[Q] Screen unresponsive problem

when someone call me after i finish talking i can't on the screen. when i press the power button the light in the bottom softkeys(search, back, menu, home) turn on, but the screen does not turn on. i have to take out battery and reinsert and on and everything works fine. i also notice that certain softwhere the bottom right side of the screen not working in potrait, but all screen area work in landscape mode!!!
please help!
i have tried to follow steps in these thread but cannot find the calibration scripts for desire s.
Sometimes it is helpful to mention stuff like the current ROM you are using ...
PS: Never pull battery out whatever the case is. Try the combination (Vol- & Vol+ & Power) to hard reset the phone.
I have tried fallout 5.0, reaper, cynogenmod 7.2 latest nightly and currently in blindIce v12-final edition in the past 1 week. All rom has similar problem.

Look up android sleep of death. I had on previous devices but not the note 13
I actually think it does wake up just not turning on the screen , i can hear the volume changing , and the device going to mute mode , but screen is off .
or maybe i am wrong and its normal to change the volume with the screen is off on samsung devices?

It isn't normal no, the only button that should work with the screen off is the screen on button. I'd start by looking into what shaun suggested above and if you find no fix, maybe just try a factory format? (back your data up first).
I get a slightly similar issue on mine but I got the bug when I flashed Hyperdrive Rom, my screen occasionally "goes off" but it's not really off, I can see the back light still. I just have to screen off/screen on and I'm fixed. Your issue sounds different though because you need forced reboot.
Hope you get it fixed, Good luck!

did OP ever get this resolved? I am having the exact same problem with the 10.1 2014. Screen goes to sleep, but when pressing power, or opening the book cover, the backlight does not turn back on. You can see the image on the LCD in the light and hear screen presses, or volume adjustments.
Tried factory reset, and Odin'd a fresh rom.. No go

I am on stock rom and never rooted. Mine started doing the exact same thing. You can see it on in the light. Factory reset didn't fix.
Hi,
I have a quite similar problem. It started with a charging problem so I thought changing the cable would solve the problem but no. My charging is kow ok, but each morning after a long charging night, my note n8010 with stock android gets SSSSSSLLLLOOOOOWWWW . Black screen, then slowly wakes up, but need 10sec to unlock screen and unusable... I have to force reboot too.
It seems like it doesnt want to wake up, like extreme energy saving mode... ?! No solution actually found for me
The only fix for me is flashing Boefla kernel

Mi 4i Wake Up Lag After Flashing cm-12.1-20150815-UNOFFICIAL-ferrari.zip

Wake Up Lag after flashing cm-12.1-20150815-UNOFFICIAL-ferrari.zip
I have flashed cm-12.1-20150815-UNOFFICIAL-ferrari.zip.
Everything looks fine, but the wake-up lags quite seriously.
When I press the power key to wake up the phone,
the hardware key lights up, but the screen is still black.
After 5-8 seconds the screen may show up but then it goes off quickly.
Now I have to long press the power key,
then the reboot menu will come out, and the screen can then keep on.
But it's quite stupid.
I have flashed also the RazorReborn kernel but problem still exists.
If the problem cannot be solved, I may need to flash back to the MIUI rom to try again.
