[Q] Power-Button won't turn off my phone sometimes and Mobile Data doesn't work - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I don't know why but sometimes my Power Button won't turn off my phone. Well ..actually not even the "Touch Control" Method works. But pressing it for ~5sec (whatever) makes the phone reboot. So the button is functionable.
Also my mobile data sometimes doesn't work .. no signal at all. I recieve sms , can make a phonecall and WiFi etc still works. But not 2g/3g.
I'm using rooted Stock ROM with Stock Launcher and "eXperience Pro" + "Touch Control" App if that does matter.
Can somebody explain it to me :<?
Thanks in advance

It's called a BSOD- Black Screen of Death. It has to do with the Touch Control app.
For the signal thing, reinstalling the stock ROM.

Hey, thanks for your response.
But wait the Screen is ON. I can't turn it OFF. I can open apps like always but it just don't turn off :/

Oh.. I misread that.. Sorry
Still related to touch control. The app messes up the touchscreen.

Hm okay thanks ..can't live without the app anymore. But why does it mess with the Power Button?

It happened again and now touch control wasn't even installed :/.. And I rebooted my phone. What the heck is wrong here

First of all, i appreciate anyone who takes the time and reads this.
I have the same issue, and always had when installing mods in the past. The phone becomes irresponsive and laggy at times, even though when you flash the rom at the start it is buttery smooth and battery life is amazing! It seems that this is always short lived, however, and I am constantly having problems flashing ROMs on my phone (Both my current Galaxy Nexus and prior Galaxy SII). I would love to tell you my kernel but at the moment the POWER button is as well not responding. So much so that i can't turn the phone on!! :crying: Any help would be appreciated. I've tried taking the battery out, and putting it back in and ive also tried booting the phone via usb without the battery. Nothing's working. The battery is responsive, however, it displays the battery meter (while charging) when i click the power button once. It just doesn't respond when i hold it down to try and turn the phone on.
Many thanks!!

Hey.
For me, as I already mentioned, it doesn't turn off.
But I'm pretty sure that I found the issue : experience pro. When I try to take a screen shot of my screen on time it doesn't make one and the power button won't do ANYTHING UNTIL I press volume down or up ones. So for me it's the change track when pressing volume feature. Maybe it'll help. Greetings.

Diamond 2 wont turn off... Wakes up after 5-10 sec.

Suddenly, my diamond won’t turn off.
After 5-10sec its on again. What is waking him up?
Also sometimes I have problems with locking. If I press the lock button sometimes it will just vibrate. It wont lock.
I have to do it via applications/lock.
This is draining my battery very fast.
I already tried hard reset. No change.
Latest 6.5 stock rom.
Please advice.

Very very strange problem, especially after reading that you are on stock ROM and after hard reset... Now that's sounds like a hardware problem to me, to more observing and if it it really stays like that I'd send it for warranty repair. Sorry bud don't know any other solution

Download TD2 Tools and set it to connect to your power button.
Then uncheck wake up on new SMS.
Also check your power settings and make sure the device will sleep after however long you choose.

[Q]long wakeup time from standby

I use Froyo 2.1 build, after I press power key to turn off screen, if I press the power key again in short time, the device wakeup will take a long time (about 5 seconds), sometimes even not wakeup (due to timeout in the lockscreen and screen turns off again I guess), then I have to press the power key again and wait, normally it will take about 4 seconds to turn on the screen.
I tried to turn off setCPU and ATK completely, but not works, still long time to wake up.
is there a solution to this? everything works fine except this
thanks in advance!
I also have this issue. I tried many builds but there is always lag. No build will wake up so fast as WinMo but I think its the limitation of running OS from SD Card. Maybe I`m wrong but I think internal memory has lower latency so windows wakes up immediately and android always takes some time..
I want to know is there anyone do not have this long delay before wakeup? if there is, please tell me, thanks!
these are known issues and there is no fix , most of time things like this come
from human error
Yeah these are known issues with the Froyo builds. Will probablyget fix somewhere down the line.
The best thing to do now is to be patient with it. I find the more frustrated I get with it, the worse it gets. What I mean is if I keep hitting the hangup/unlock button to try to get it to wake, it takes longer to awake.
Also someone has posted that a possible problem is with Advanced Task Killer settings. If you have that program set to kill apps during sleep, it could cause a hang on wake. Also I believe auto screen rotate could have an effect.
I am sure that in time the situation will be resolved, as will every other minor bug and glitch.
The only solution I have foudn to this problem is to use shub 1.4c or d. It usualy turns on the first press, if it doesn't I press the button again(b/c usually the backlight goes on on the first press just nothing shows up on the lcd) then wiat a couple seconds and it goes on. I also have minimal TS freezes w. that build while with other builds they are common
disable autorotate. i had this even in shubcrafts builds, sometimes it woiult be within have a second, sometimes id see the screen power up but and go greyish, then a few seconds later id get the lock screen. from time to time, though i wouldnt get the lock screen and it just power down again.
since disabled auto rotate, its been pretty consistant at showing the lockscreen quickly.
The devs know about these problems, they are bveing worked on.
this is the major problem for me, but I still can not find it in any build's known bug/issue list, does the developer guys really know this? or it's only the problems shown in our devices?
If any of you have installed Battery Indicator, try to uninstall it and see if it help.
I used to have Battery Indicator to disable screen lock, after I uninstalled it, the problem is gone.
I have had the same issue with all the roms i tried ... but recently on shubcraft 1.5, i ve found out that when pressing the end key and that nothing shows on the LCD but the keyboard backlight is on, you can unlock as usual by doing the slide pattern on the black screen (you can feel it vibrate when you hit the spot before sliding).

I'm using FroyoStone 2.1 with kernel r9 and have the same issue.
I can confirm your finding that it's indeed the backlight that doesn't light up and unlock can be done anyway...
Dev's please fix this backlight issue...
BIG THANKS!
I had this annoying issue and tried almost all the builds and finally the build in the following link worked well. Note : This is a nexus ROM without sense and FM radio. Very snappy and no wakeup delay for me.

Yes, same here. Using mattc 1.1 clean
hate it.
I have this problem either , Shubcraft 1.5 , also during calls , sometimes it take more than 5 seconds to wake the screen after you take it off from your ear .

Can you try waking up your phone with the YES/SEND key? (instead of power key)
Please provide feedback if this makes a difference.

Thx a lot.. The Call button wakes up the phone much faster than the default Power button.
Is is possible that a low memory situation can cause this? My HD2 was running perfectly then out of nowhere the long wake and wake screen freeze started to appear. I have been troubleshooting it for 2 days now. I just noticed that my available memory show in Taskiller was 109mb. I had seen that low memory situation before during a freeze period and not paid any attention to it. But I do know that after I reboot the phone its perfect again w/ 200+mb.
Anyone else notice this?
Has any progress been made on this matter in recent builds? Running shubcraft 1.5, and still having major troubles with it about 2 out 3 unlocks..
Try disabling any & all task killers, what I think is happening is that something gets killed when it shouldn't. I had the same issue to the point of going back to Winmo and as a last resort just disabled all those and then went with a static wallpaper (no live). The problem disappeared and now the battery last much longer.

[Q] Screen won't turn off

For some reason my screen won't shut off when I press the power button or by itself after any amount of time. I made sure all of the settings were set right that might keep it on. I know it's not hardware damage because I've pretty much never dropped it or handled it hard. The power button still works because it will get the turn off, restart, etc screen to go. Any idea how to fix it? I already did a factory reset.

Dial *#0*# check some test for dimming, sleep etc.

Download wakelock detector and see which app is keeping your screen on.
Dialed that number, the dimming worked, but the sleep button didn't do anything. I'll try that app out and see what it says.
In my understanding *#0*# dialing is for hardware check, if sleep is not working from there means it has nothing to do with any app & better to take to service centre.

It didn't do it until after I tried to change my boot screen. Know if that would do anything? No boot animations go off besides the galaxy note 3 one (no Tmobile or samsung animation, and no shut off animation). I also rooted it so would they still help me even though the knox counter is 0x1?
Any help? Using the wakelock app it says that system manager application is used a lot more than anything else. Not sure what it does.

Try to flash complete stock ROM & clear Data & Catch before & after flashing from recovery may HELP.
That fixed it. I'm not sure why I didn't already try that since it seems kinda obvious. Don't know what made it do that though. Do you happen to know if modifying the boot animations can mess other things up?
Mine its not rooted still stock and all of the sudden started acting up with the screen ....i did the *# test and when i went to sleep it went straight to the lock screen ...any idea what could cause it

Mine does this every time I reboot my phone. I have to press and hold the home key, pick the pie chart, pick RAM and pick "Clear Memory". Then it's fine til the next time I reboot.
I had my note 3 with the same problem and solved it recovering the original system/media/bootsamsung*.qmg files.
to solve the problem plug the charger and unplug it immediately and plug it back in again. This is also the reason why the problem is caused. So doing it again will solve the problem.

[Q] Weird Note 3 Bootup/Lock Screen Issue

I have a Galaxy Note 3 running stock firmware on TMobile. It is not rooted or anything special.
I'm running into an issue where whenever it boots up, it comes up quickly, but Bluetooth and Wifi are not enabled (even though they were before when it shut down). Also, the screen lock button doesn't do anything, so there's no way to lock the screen. If I hold down the screen button, it does bring up the Power menu, so I know the physical button is fine.
If I just sit and wait, Bluetooth and Wifi do eventually come on, but it could take hours. Alternately, if I just hit the home button and lock button a lot in no particular order, eventually the lock button will randomly work, and the screen will lock. When I unlock the screen, I can see Wifi and Bluetooth coming on. Somehow the lack of a functional lock screen button and the wifi and bluetooth not turning on are tied to eachother, but I don't really understand why.
Tonight my phone was being a little laggy, so I restarted it, and I wasn't thinking about this bug so I just put it in my pocket while it rebooted. It started up, but since I wasn't paying attention to it I didn't get the lock screen working and the wifi and bluetooth on. When I finally pulled my phone out about an hour later the battery was at 8%. I looked at battery stats, and the battery use is attributed to
Android OS 28%
Media Server 27%
Android System 12%
Screen 8%
Those stats make me think something is getting all hung up when it boots up and causing the OS to just spin and burn battery.
Any ideas? I don't even know where to start. I've googled a lot but it's hard trying to figure out what the right phrase is, since most of my googling results in people who don't like their lock screen or can't get their wifi to connect.
Thanks in advance

Lock screen not turning off unless I do it manually !!!!1

hello
i have note 4 n910c with 6.0.1
My screen doesn't automatically time out if I press the home button or the power button to turn on my screen. In order for the screen to turn off, I have to manually press the power button. Otherwise, the screen just stays on and drains my battery !!!!!
I should also note that if I receive notifications, my screen lights up and I have to either dismiss the notification or manually turn off the screen.
i downgraded to 5.1.1 it worked for few days then the same issue again
i formatted my device and flashed most recent stock rom 6.0.1 again few days and the same problem screen not turn off automatically
any solutions?
by the way when i use smart manger and end all RAM applications screen turn off work good immediately then after few minutes not turn off again
You can try widgetsoid app, that haves a big list of toggle widgets, and no lock screen is one of their widgets.

Confirmed same issue here. Also same issue when using s-cover. Very annoying. Now that I've trained myself to manually turn off the screen, I'm getting much better battery life than I was with LP.

It would be helpful if you told others what the app was, so that they can try your solution when they come across this thread...
