My Screen keeps turning on by itself!

when i have my phone locked and im not even touching it, every few minutes the screen will turn on and sit there for around 30 seconds then will turn back on a few mins later, this is very annoying and im sure uses a ton of battery over the course of a day, im running leedroid 3.1.2 and it used to do it on 3.1.1 so idk if its rom related

Are you sure your not getting notifications??or if any app is causing it (alerts?)?

Check for any stray apps. Install "Battery history for GB" app from market and check for apps that are using "wake lock" excessively.

I had a similar problem with my inspire. It seemed to be caused by a faulty usb cable. After I plugged my phone into my car charger it started working fine.

I have an Inspire 4G with the same problem. I doubt that it is an app, because I changed the rom 3 times so far. And with every one of them, the problem persists. Anyway, i'm trying the Battery log now.

Do you have any apps that you set up profiles for, i.e. Llama? They can be buggy sometimes with the screen commands.

I have the same problem. Going to have to waste my upgrade in august for a new inspire. I am trying battery history for gb now. IF anyone has any ideas, please lets us know. This is absolutely ridicolous.

The links in your sig are excellent. They should be required reading before anyone starts a "My Battery Life Sucks" thread.

annoying screen randomly turning on
Hey I've been having the same issue, my SGS I9000 international version keeps turning the screen on by itself randomly, I've flashed my phone back to stock Eclair 2.1 and then I went to Froyo, Cyannogen mode 7, ICS rom which I forgot the name of it, and then I'm running on the new value pack now which is 2.3.6XXJW4 however nothing has solved this damn problem, my screen keeps turning on and it's killing my battery, help please..!! I've tried to see if the sensor is not working, however I believe it's something else.. please let me know if someone has fix for this..!

I'm running LeeDroid v5.1.1 and haven't experienced this yet. I've been running it close to 2 weeks now with no real issues. Just an occasional lag spike on wake up.

GTA III Accelerometer Issues

I managed to get GTA III mobile on my inspire and it runs great. Very little lag even with the extra effects enabled and without overclock.
However, the accelerometer seems to be 90 degrees offset, I have to hold the phone portrait in order to steer straight and steers hard right/left depending on which landscape I'm in. Anybody have any ideas on how to fix this?

How is your accelerometer doing in other apps?
If it's not responding as desired, you can download/try one of the accelerometers calibration apps found in the market.

I have plenty of other accelerometer/racing games and never had this problem. Something to do with GTA III. I'll try calibration.

Personally I'd try redownloading the app and try it again

Did you download the data when the app prompted or download on your PC?

I downloaded when prompted. Tried calibration and still no fix.

I just tested it on my phone and it also bugs.
I really don't know what it could be.
You could try other ROMs.
I've actually tested 3 different roms myself, but they didn't prove much difference in performance for me.

I have the same problem on my htc sensation, you have to hold the phone upright, aill look around and post here if i find a fix.

What version GTA III do you have?

V1.1 quit after playing some 30, 40 sec.
1.0 appears to be fine.
Edit: doesn't quit, it freezes, having to "battery pull"(it's not even a force quit).

ya thats how it was for me the whole phone froze couldnt power off or anything 1.2 fixed it for me

Yep same here on stock GB non rooted inspire... All other games work fine..

Any other better performance in 1.2?

Ya runs flawless for me now although I wish it worked for me on ics without the freezing problem

The issue persist for me on 1.3 as well

I heard is it's a compatibility problem; when a game is built to be played in a tablet, where it's default screen is landscape, the accelerometer in the game will play normally, but when playing the game in a phone, witch is made to be always in portrait, (badly made games dont know it's in portrait) the game wont compensate for the 90 degrees between sideways and upward position.
If you downloaded a hacked version or whatever, didn't get it from the market, this may be the issue.
Edit, idk if the explanation was too confusing, I just woke up.
technically it works like this:
If a game built to be played on tablet, or badly built game:
When played on tablet: 0 degrees difference in accelerometer.
When played on phone: 90 degrees difference (from landscape to portrait devices) that the accelerometer SHOULD compensate for, but doesn't. Same with the tablet, if the game is playable in both landscape and portrait, it should compensate those 90 degrees when switched screen modes...

just bought it from market. Still no fix (SGS3).

[Q] Graphic issue with unblockme free

Hello, since I updated the game unblockme free (http://www.kiragames.com/)
I am facing several graphic issues and now the game is not playable at all.
This issue came up when I flashed a new rom with cmbins, kyrillos or kyorarom (I can't remember), for now I use kyorarom 0.5.1 which is working very very fine except for that game.
As I'm totally a noob I suppose that the cmbins things may not be related to this problem and I'm asking here to know if there is some people who is playing that game without any problems on another kind of rom.

What kind of issues? I have similar problem, all the graphics in this game are displayed in half i mean bottom-right or top-left half usually.
And I cannot say if it was because of updating it or because of flashing Kyrillos as both occurred at the same time. But now I'm on CM7, beacuse Kyrillos was a lot buggy in my case.

Yes my problem is exactly the same: I've got half displayed things since the update... and I also flashed in the same times a kyrillos rom!
So I guess it is the same for you with CM7, probably this is related with our phone's resolution or "gpu" (since no fimg right now) or bad update...
Is someone here with a stock rom, and playing this game, facing the same problem?

Wait, no, I meant while I was using Kyrillos a had the same problem. I had it despite updates, wiping cache, etc.
CM7 is my new ROM since ~18 hours. Since I do not have wifi for a couple of next hours I won't have any app installed on my new CM7, nor this game (I cannot even synchronize my Google account).
So it was on Kyrillos also, in my case, and in this moment I cannot check this game on CM7. Maybe in the evening or tomorrow.

Hum, okay!
Good luck with your new rom then
If you manage to have all things working good, please tell if the same issue happen again.

The same on CyanogenMod-7.1.0-GT-I5800-KANG.

Ok, thanks.
I reported the bug to the game's dev team. Let's see what will happen then...

hi guys, the problem is scrn resolution i think, our screen is so **** with its lo res, even a stupid sliding game like unblock me free (i love unblock me free, dont get me wrong) doesnt work on it! try the penultimate version of unblockme and it will work.

Yeah, but unfortunately just before the update i had the good idea to erase some of the backups i had with titanium backup... that mean impossible to use the penultimate version for me.
Anyway thanks for your advice.

Modern combat 5 force close (Solved)

Is anyone else having force closes when they are playing Modern Combat 5? I will get through about half of the level and it will force close.
I am using stock CM11S 4.4.4

Are you happening to be using ART?

What @zephiK said. ART is not fully implemented across the board yet and can cause some apps to force close. Some apps won't even run on ART.

Modern Combat 5 is not stable on android. MC5 happens to force close on probably every android phone. Just wait for the devs to update the game and optimize the game for android. MC5 force close on mine too so yeah. patience bruh

Same here and I'm using Dalvik non rooted. It also crashes on my G3. It sucks because you lose your points and achievements every time it crashes.

I have it set to Dalvik. From what I am reading now and from the other 2 replies, the game is just a problem on any android device. They need to do updates. Thanks for the info about ART though.

Hopefully since its a problem with multiple devices it will be fixed sooner rather than later. It is a pain to go through that work getting that stuff just for it to crash though. As @Sherwinnn said, we just have to be patient and wait for a update.

It's kinda ironic that as soon as I received this post notification my game crashed.

I dont know but i think there is anythinghs that crashes the app. Because i am not able to play more than 3 - 4 minutes without restarting the app. I have to figure out what wrong with my s6. I am running xstrolite and arter kernel.

I have the same issue. Freshly installed unofficial CM11 on Samsung Trend Plus. Yes it's a low end phone but app works fine for 2 minutes, then suddenly crashes after some idle time or when I try to catch a pokemon. I thought it's because of very bad hardware but if it's also an issue for S6 then maybe there's some software fix. Hope you find some solution.

same issue on samsung galaxy s2 plus. game freezes after 1 minute. some times after restarting 10 times it works without freezing but then i get some glitch in graphics, roads are pulsating and pokemon textures arent loading properly. my phone is rooted and has CM11 (kinda think its causing the issue)

Happened to me 4 or 5 times... guaranteed when catching a Pokémon... what app version you on?

Still ripping through my battery though... I downloaded it and installed it at 90%. I lauch it,log in and look where my gym is and a two other Pokestops and then notice I'm down to 87% it's like 1% a minute..
They should allow us to download an offline map and use that. I'm sure general GPS use isn't so thirsty.....
