Alright, I've been having this "glitch" on 2 GSIII's. When I hit he power button to lock my phone and what not and then click the physical button to turn it on I always have to hit it multiple times to get the screen up. I've had it on both Liquid Smooth & Codename ROMS and the kernel is the newest version of KT746. Any help or way I can fix this? Its rather annoying..help is greatly appreciated.
Also, my phone is getting really hot quickly, even when all I do is text..

Have you overclocked at all??? I use my phone very very heavily and have NEVER felt any heat or anything...... As far as the screen issue that could also be the kernel or very possible even the ROM itself.... I know for a while mine wouldn't respond to touching it after I woke it up I would have to hit the power button to darken the screen and wake the screen again... but after a few times it solved itself....

Yes, I'm OC'd to 1809. I'm beginning to believe its the kernel (KT747), this problem has followed me from CM10 Night lies, CNA, Paranoid, and so on and so forth.
I just disabled over clocking and it still took me twice to hit the physical button in order for my screen to come on.
I had this problem on mine when i used the CleanKernel. It would take like 5 or 6 times of me pressing the power button to get it to respond. I changed the kernel back to the stock original kernel via a naindroid backup and i have not had the problem since. Im nervous to flash other roms cause of that issue. Im waiting for more stable builds even though i really wanna try Synergy.... lol

It seams to be kernel related, was running kt with slimbean and could not get power button to wake up the device. Changed to lean and it works when it wants to. I also had the same thing happen on cm9 on another device, so it may just be an aosp thing. Be sure that the option is selected in the main menu too, but as of now I think it is what it is.

Hello XDA members,
I have some questions regarding the OPO. I read a lot about random reboots, a yellow tint on the screen, and stuck/dead pixels. I wanted to know if these errors still occur a lot, since I still read posts from the past days from people complaining about these issues. Please post if you have a fully working OPO, or if you have/had one with errors, and if you sent it back, or fixed the error(s).
Thanks in advance
I have a fully working opo no issues whatsoever. If my screen is kinda yellow at the bottom I don't notice it. As for multi touch I tested I can do up to 6 fingers on screen before it gets glitchy when 2 fingers are in close proximity. But who has 6 fingers on the screen at the same time?? I'm running cm11s 44s which is the latest, rooted with AK kernel 077 also had no problems with Franco kernel. Haven't tried other kernels. Food try other Roms with multirom but always came back to cm11s.

Thanks for your answer, it was helpful for me! I just read on the OnePlus forums that the 64GB OPO has been sold out for the Black Friday event, so no more ordering-without-invite today.
Hi guys,
I thought is was a good idea to put Update related stuff into a separate thread.
So here we go
First question from my side, Can i stay rooted/xposed/selinux off for updating successful or do i need to Reset it? I dont really need root
Issues: I have brightness changing a lot and quickly, may it be an effect of doze?

It doesn't sense the magnetic cover, it interprets as touch so, instead of going off screen, it increases brightness!

I have no problem with screen brightness changing or the on/off function from the magnetic cover, and have great battery life after the upgrade to marshmallow. My tablet had not been rooted and I am using a generic cover.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
The adaptive brightness is a "feature" of the Asus software Vivid Display, it attempts to change the brightness of the screen to somehow compensate for the darkness of the content. There is nowhere to turn it off. It does my head in, i was able to disable it with root before the update, and with the Marshmallow update you can use the debloater tool. Disable packages called VisualMaster and Splendid, that seems to fix it.

Good to know, I will experiment. Usually I keep auto brightness and twilight app for the night, they may be conflicting too.
It's personal, but I hate vivid display [emoji4]
I solved the magnetic cover, the option is on setting but was defaulted to off

What kind of battery life are we getting including screen on time?
For my use l was already satisfied with jb battery performance, and I don't see a great improvement.
But speed increment is very visible, I would say 20/30%

Hello! How can we have multi user support on M? Thx

One issue I have is that there are certain (non-media consumption) instances where the tablet will not automatically turn off the screen even though it is supposed to time out after 30 seconds of inactivity. Not a huge deal but since we are sharing...

My kids have some games that do that, more than likely the game has a permission to Keep the screen awake, you might be able to deny this permission now with M installed. I haven't upgraded their tablets yet but once I do I will check for that permission.
My big issue also relates to brightness. I use on screen alerts so that the screen lights whenever I get an alert. The problem is that with MM the screen dims just before it times out and turns off. I think it did this in earlier versions of android but with MM the dimming effect is so great that the screen is unreadable. This problem occurs even with auto brightness off and with the screen plenty bright...except for the few seconds before it turns off. Any ideas on if this can be fixed would be appreciated.

I don't get what are the screen alerts, but screen dimming and shining at random happens too.
I think we should be waiting the obvious update in a couple of months

The random screen dimming has been happening since I bought my tablet last year. It hasn't been fixed & probably never will.

Update: Can't write to OTG USB drive; Nook FC; FBReader FC
Mm is a mixed bag for me, to the point where I would go back to rooted LP with Xposed if I could.
Biggest issue is that I can no longer write to an OTG drive. I'd prefer to use the SD card as internal storage and use OTG on the relatively rare occasions when I need to move files. I can read the OTG Ok, but not write. It doesn't seem to be a drive or cable issue; I've tried multiples of both.It *does* seem to be a MM issue, because my phone (LG G3, unrooted) has the same problem.
Second issue is thst both the Nook reader app and FBReader crash. Both work OK on other MM tabs (granted, they are rooted) and on my LG G3 phone (bone stock).
Just venting!
Update: the OTG issue is not as bad as I indicated. ES File Explorer Pro is a lot fussier than the ASUS native file manager. Once I grant access via the file manager, ES seems to read and write OK. I finally got FBReader to work by uninstalling the Premium version, installing the free version, and then upgrading again to Premium. Now the Nook issue is the only remaining problem, and I can work around that by stripping the DRM from my books using Calibre in the PC so I can access them via FBReader.

I tried it again. Even with the MM update, there is severe battery drain while powered down. I charged to 100%, powered off and unplugged. Two days later booted up and battery shows 64%. Meanwhile my NEXUS N7 was turned off for 6 days and still shows 98% charge when booted up. Intolerable. No more Asus products for me.

Wait. You said you powered it down and then later "booted up." So the unit was off, as opposed to sleeping? If so, then the problem isn't related to the OS, 'cause the OS isn't operating.. It's your battery. It's self-discharging too fast.
Is there MM update for CN version?
Hi all, i,ve just read that there is a MM updates for Z580CA, and it said we need to download it manually (not OTA) . But when i checked to the asus website there is only updated firmware for WW and JP Version,
So.. is the CN Version will have the updates soon? ( i don' know if it possible to change SKU, but i've read the update can only applied to a same SKU, ex, WW to WW)

Check the parent thread for this as there is a way to revert back to LP.

Exactly. Battery or a short circuit. But it seems a short would have other, more disastrous consequences. Since it doesn't really fit this thread I am asking a moderator to move to the appropriate one.
Anyone having issues with the screen not turning on? The home button still has the haptic feedback but nothing happens after that. The power button doesn't do anything either. Not sure if this is a defective phone or a s8+ overall issue...
Yes.. mine locks up frequently. Hold volume down and power until it responds
Haven't had this problem as of yet, and I have over 130 apps installed onto my phone. Transferred from Google first and Smart Switch after that. Haven't had a single problem.
seem the people in this link are having the same issues: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/help/phone-freezing-rebooting-unlocking-t3593075
hopefully its just a minor software glitch that can be fixed

I'm also getting this issue on my S8. Wondering if it's related to the always on lockscreen
Is this a serious issue?
---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 AM ----------
Take it back for warranty
Just had this happen for the first time in the two weeks I've owned the S8+. Restart resolved it for now.
Had my phone since a day or 2 before launch and have not had this problem.
try to reboot a few times and also clear out the cache.
I remember the s7e had this problem and about 1 out of 20ish time the phone wouldnt wake up on first try. But they sent out an update to fix it.

I came here looking for answers, since I was experiencing the same problem (although no haptic feedback). This solution solved the problem. Got me into recovery mode, where I was able to turn off the phone and reboot.
Some of the answers suggested restarting. I don't think they understood the problem. The OP stated the power button was not working, as was my case. So 'just restarting' was not a solution.
I'm having the same issue but it started a couple weeks ago after I installed a firmware updated. It has happened 3 times since then, and never happened before that since I got the phone (on launch date a few months ago).
Hi All,
There's this weird thing happening with my Note.
Initially I had just bought a thicker phone case and noticed that I wasn't able to swipe down for my notification menu, I'd have to kinda hold my finger right up beside the front camera hole until I saw the shade come down then I could pull. To fix this I turned on "swipe down" for the notification menu. That was fine with me for a few days, until about 2 days ago when the phone would start to just freeze up when using it and I had to lock the screen and then unlock or reboot the phone for it to work again.
I got really frustrated and last night wiped the device clean and re-installed the OS without pulling back the apps I already had on it, and the problem was still there.
I had the factory screen protector on it, I though maybe that could compromised so I pulled it off this morning and it still does it.
I can use the phone fine with the s-pen, so I turned on dev options and went in and turned on the setting to show where I touch on the screen. Because I wanted to see what was up. Once I switched it on, I noticed that from time to time there would be a whole trail of presses happening at the top bar of the phone and it would always kinda gather up at the top right side of the camera punch hole. Once that shows up, the notification bar pulls down by itself, sometimes all the way to the bottom of the screen or half way. But the whole screen stops responding, pulling the s-pen and pushing it back up works. I can use it with the pen but not my fingers and it is very frustrating.
Has this happened to anyone? Is this a in-home fix? Or Do I need a replacement?
Hi its happening for me as well. with the latest pie update not android 10 beta

I don't quite remember my build number, but it was running Android 9. Unfortunately we don't really have a Samsung service center here in Jamaica (well we do have a samsung place but they'll tell you if you bought it elsewhere take it there) it's my company phone so I just sent it back to our supplier to have it repaired. They said roughly 2 weeks to get it back. We bought 2 at the same time, the other doesn't charge properly with the stock charger the person has to use a S8 charger to get quick charge (weird i know) In any event, the plan is that when I get it back I'll just put in a request for the Note 10+ and call it a day.
