Hello,
I owned a Galaxy S with Android 2.3.6 and used the SwitchPro Widget all the time for the screen lock widget, to prevent using the power button to lock the screen. Recently, I upgraded to the S3 and the same widget is giving me trouble. Everytime I use it, it turns the screen off, but immediately it turns back on and it stays like that for a few seconds. It acts like something else is waking it up. Sometimes, it does work perfectly, but it's very rare. I am using a pattern on the lock screen to unlock, but I don't see how that could be a problem since it was the same on my older phone. Does anyone have any hints or experience the same problem ? I tried using other widget packs with screen lock widgets, but they all act the same.
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem on a Sony Experia Pro... I've used "zMooth" to lock screen with a gesture and "screen off" widget for that... both used to work well on the original stack gingerbread... but then I flashed a custom ICS rom and now they do what you describe... I really wonder if it's something more related to ICS than anything else.

i'm having the same issues with my galaxy s3, and its quite annoying.
I used to have an HTC amaze that was updated to ICS, and it had no issues going screen off right away with switchpro widget
I have been using the PIN login screen since I first received Nexus 5 running 4.4, and everything feels normal. With no roots or unlock or any modifications done to the phone (well except enabling the built-in encryption from the phone)
Right after I side loaded 4.4.1, rebooted the phone, allowed the phone to self-optimize, I noticed that when I try to type in my PIN at the login screen, there is this annoying and consistent slight delay between when my finger touch the number, and when the circular dot appears (along with the sound of touch clicking).
I can't quite put my finger on it though, because the regular keyboard usage works just as expected after I login, but the PIN login just seems a little chocked up under 4.4.1
Anyway, I searched online, and I can't seem to find any existing threads. Maybe I am the one person experiencing this issue. Does any one of you experience something similar?
I already tried rebooting the device (and even cold booting the device), same result.
I've used pin unlock since I got my N5 and I'm still on 4.4 not updated and it has the delay when typing on touch pad. So it's nothing to do with the update..
But yeah it is annoyingly slow

Hello!
My oneplus one is having this issue for a while now, When I plug it in and lock the device, there is a 60~70% chance that the display stays on but its just blank, I have to unlock it and lock it again to fix it.
Recently this also started happening when it was not charging and the screen would often stay on causing massive battery drain :/
This happens on every single rom all the way from CM11S up to CM13 and also oxygen os,...
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks,
Noahvt
I have the same problem since I can remember, also looking for an answer.
I have a similar issue. Sometimes the screen stays on, but is dimmed. A simple double press of the power button resolves it (turn on full, turn off screen) but its mildly irritating. I have only noticed it since being on sultanxdas cm12 ROM. I had an issue with a notification LED app not working since a recent ROM update so uninstalled it. Maybe the issue was related to that app as I cant remember the issue occurring since I uninstalled it a few days ago.
Ever sincec I got my LG G3 Stylus, I've got this issue that keeps bothering me a lot. I've searched the net, the phone's configs and etc and got nothing.
Since the phone is on warranty still, I decided not to root it yet (doesn't give me a lot of advantages doing so)
However, whenever I'm using the phone to do stuff, be it watching a video on youtube app, using facebook app, or any other app for instance, sometimes I accidentally touch the screen with my fingers or arm, and it locks. Like a screen lock that happens when you press the lock button behind it. I've searched in every option available on the phone and didn't find anything that could turn out to be a screen lock shortcut or something similar.
Anyone have an Idea what might be triggering the screen lock?

I'm not entirely sure how is that post related to my issue, they report that their phones are stuck on the logo, while I'm having issues with random screen locks (probably a touch shortcut)
Hi all,
Lockscreen is lagging and requires multiple touches before being operational, this happen after the device has been locked for a while, so I think it might be related to deep sleep?
I've had a oneplus 7 pro before and I've recently just bought one again, I've rooted with magisk etc and I'm happy with it but there is a problem on the lockscreen, it really lags, I can place my finger on the scanner and it just won't even recognise I've touched the screen
Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks
James
