I have been having ringtone errors recently, after device wakeup, sometimes during device sleep; but most often at wakeup the ringtone will sound off without any notification present, nor a caller trying to connect. It started after I engaged the pattern lock, but it must be caused by something else because after I turned off the lock screen and did a restart it still has the error. Anyone else having the same issue? Any ideas on a fix?
well, I've been working on this and so far I have found it is related to the use of the alarm server but the only fix is a temp fix. I set the phone to vibration and then turn back on the ring setting and that works for a day. I am still working to find a more permanent fix. please feel free to post any ringtone issues here maybe they are related and everyone can help with fixes here.
Ok I got it worked out. I had to flash from my nand backup and reinstall all my apps. The trouble came from titanium backup. It shouldn't be used to reinstall app data. If just the app it's ok, but app plus data will make the ringtone go flakey
I have been using titanium backup for app and data .No issues here mate.
May be you are trying to restore system settings across ROM's

Nope, I'm using my stock Rom it's just rooted. I have stopped using TB. However I think it may have been only one or two apps causing the trouble. I think it was Facebook and Catfiz.

Hi,
I got my Moto G on the weekend (Unlocked from Tesco Mobile for £2.04, thanks ebay)
However, on one occasion, the phone would not turn the screen off until I held the power button for 10 seconds to reboot it.
But more often (a few times every day), the phone will not wake up from standby until I do the same to reboot it. This morning this alarm clock to fail, so this could be an issue.
Does anyone else have the same issue and know of a fix?
Thanks!
Whichs apps do you have installed? Are you rooted? Did you already try a factory reset?

Do the issue exist if you don't add a Google account? Have you restored old settings through Google backup?

I havent restored settings after a reboot, but i have noticed that I get reboots when I am editing google contacts on the phone....
Crappy sleep of death issue .... Seems moto g is having battery issues...
Mm not battery issues its just SW issues.
Simply fixed but will need an update.
Little tweeks like on a phone call when i move the phone away from my ear to open dialer to enter details on an automated service the screen won't come on until I press the power button twice. Once to lock and once to unlock. Then I can bring up dialler
Its due to all the little refinements in power management but it will get fixed.
I personally can live with the little niggles just now for the amazing 3.5-4 hours screen on time I'm getting.
Yest under heavy mobile data use it went a full 14 hours with the 3.5hours screen in time. It was great because I basically done all my Christmas shopping on my phone and checked store prices when out.
If its rebooting often enough I would do a fresh install and start again.
THE BIGGEST thing I found that made a difference in this phone and I think moto should highlight this is:
Do not import previous phone settings on initial start up. This somehow beings weird and wonderful phone settings over and seems to play Havoc with the overall performance of the device be it battery life or connectivity.
I ended up wiping the device in factory reset and on the section on initial set up about backup and restore I unchecked the second option of restore my device settings. Left everything else and since the phone has worked as it should.
My only issue is the power and volume keys location in my car holder means it can be powered off by the holder doh. So I'm looking for a new one which doesn't hug my buttons lol

Thanks for your help guys, I was still getting random sleeps of death and random reboots so I took the device back to tesco.
They were quick to replace it and I will let you know if I am still getting these issues.
Don't import any old settings, do it manually or you could (if you have the software) do a migrate from My Backup Pro, which I used to migrate pics, contacts, call logs & sms from my old phone with zero issues. My phone hasn't rebooted or had any issues whatsoever. I suspect you just had a faulty unit. Mine is an unlocked tesco16gb too.
rare problem

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
Hi there, your comments would be greatly appreciated.
To keep data, I flash the whole 8.0 stock firmware after removing -w.
After using days, the phone can't be easily unlocked, even by power key or by FPR. Sometimes, I need to wait a more long time for the phone waking up.
Sometimes the incoming call can't even wake it up, I can't answer the call.
Have reflashed the firmware with -w available then restore all my app via titanium backup. the issue persists.
Please help! How to tell which app prevent the phone from waking
Try factory reset and not restoring data with titanium rather Google backup

Thanks. have tried clean install. everything is fine before restoring data with titanium.
So there must be some app which prevent phone from waking. Is there any chance of find this app.

I'd say just start over....
I'd say it's titanium backup restore itself

thank you dude, will take a try.
If the issue persists you could give a list of the apps you install if you don't mind.. maybe we can figure out which one affects the unlocking. :highfive:

I'm having a similar issue, but in my case I'm having trouble waking up the phone after it's been unplugged from the charger. If I use my phone all day after a full charge (and after rebooting), it's silky smooth, but the second I plug it in, the issue starts until I reboot again.
It might be extreme, but I've done this multiple times on previous phones. I restore half my apps, say the ones starting with A through M. If there's no problem, then I install half of what's left, say N through S, etc. Keep doing this as a process of elimination. Yes it's tedious but eventually you can narrow down the problem app and/or app data. You could also try restoring all of your apps without data, and if there's no problem then restore the data for half of the apps, etc.
Otherwise, as @PunishedSnake said, don't restore data (or even apps) at all with Titanium Backup. It sucks but we all occasionally have to do that.
I've since factory reset my phone with minimal app installation (no Google restoring of apps), but am still experiencing this frustrating glitch, even with/without unplugging the charger and rebooting.
Debating whether or not I should root (and downgrade).
Safe Mode fixed the problem. I will try to find the apps which prevents the phone from waking up.
How can I do this.

I think I've found the problematic app in my case. I've been using immersive mode through Custom Navigation Bar and after disabling it, my phone has become responsive again. After double checking the app's description in the Play Store, it seems the dev hasn't updated it for Oreo yet.
#FirstWorldFragmentationProblems
Edited: In order to fix this problem, simply use Tasker to disable Custom Navigation Bar's Immersive mode whenever you turn off the screen, and re-enabling it either when you unlock the phone, or only for specific apps (which is what I do).
Yes. try to enable immersive mode via this command
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
now everything is fine.

Glad to hear you were able to resolve your problem. In my case, I actually don't want immersive mode activated all the time so I may still have to root in order to selectively choose which apps I apply this command to.

Ever since I upgraded to Android 10 my titanium backup schedules are not running automatically. I have checked the app settings and set it so the the battery is not optimizing and the app can use battery in the background. The schedule runs fine when I manually kick it off, but it does not start at the scheduled time. I have emailed titanium backup support about this but have not heard back. Has anyone else run into this and know how to fix it? Does anyone have the titanium backup schedules successfully running on Android 10? Or are that alternatives to titanium backup that will backup the apps and data? I am rooted so that is not an issue. Thanks.
Not on 10, still on Pie, but have had trouble with TiBu running a scheduled backup late at night. I was able to improve the reliability by using Tasker to turn the screen on a few minutes before the scheduled run.
Has anyone got to bckp and recover that apps from Android 10? I'm still on a9 and want to migrate to A10. Can I do it using TiBu as the backp tool? I have a Poco F1.

Just to confirm that I have the exact same. No solution found yet.
Schedules not running since Android 10 (OxygenOS). No battery optimizing, working fine when kick off manually.

Pixel 3XL and it works fine provided I remember to manually run the backup after an update or reboot.
OnePlus is aggressive at preventing background apps. OnePlus and other device's methods of killing apps beyond simply battery optimization is discussed on https://dontkillmyapp.com
On TiBu's troubleshooting page
6. Scheduled jobs never run. Why?
If Titanium Backup is installed in external memory and you reboot your device, Titanium Backup can’t re-schedule your tasks automatically after the reboot (due to Android OS limitations). In that case, after every reboot you need to manually launch the app once and then everything will run as planned. To eliminate this problem you can simply move Titanium Backup to internal memory.
If you just installed Titanium Backup from scratch (not an upgrade), please launch it manually once or reboot.

The annoying thing is, that even without Battery optimization, and Advanced optimization turned off, it still won't fire.
I did some tests yesterday.
I made a backup schedule one minute in the future from now and turned off the screen. The schedule was not fired. I assume that battery optimization is not that aggressive, that it is already killed whithin one minute? However, the schedule is fired when the app is opened on the foreground.
So I created a Tasker-task (apparently Tasker does not get killed by some OnePlus-optimization) to wake the screen and open TitaniumBackup. This morning I noticed that the schedule was fired, backup was created.
Not a clean solution, but an acceptable workaroud for me.

Does your device have App Auto-Launch?
You might need to lock TiBu in recents. See if when TiBu is open, then you go to recents, if long pressing the app icon (usually top center) gives you an option to lock the app.

Also locked in recents. But didn't help. Also on my previous OnePlus.
I also had this problem and I eventually reflashed my oos and rerooted and when I tried to restore my backup it never restored my app data properly or at all. And after searching for solutions I saw somewhere that titanium didn't work well on pie or q and that swift backup is working better. I switched and have used it and won't go back
