Anyone have an issue where the screen blacks out and doesn't wake up when you press any buttons on their touch dual? It happens 4-5 times a week, usually when I haven't used the phone in at least 2-3 hours. To fix it I have to pull the battery. The phone is still on because the led in the speaker mesh is still flashing.
Thoughts?

Anyone experienced the same issue? After using the phone I press the power button but after few secs. the screen goes on again and its annoying.. Especially when I take out my HD from pocket and I see it. It was happening on stock rom now on Duttys. Could it be hardware issue with the button?

Try it without stylus inside. maybe faulty stylus thats what happened to me.
I have exactly the opposite, I switch it on, and a second later it switches off again!!
Faulty stylus? Do you mean that I try using the other one or?
When we´re already talking about the stylus, I noticed that sometimes when I pull it out my HTC doesn´t wake up from standby.. That didn´t happen on my Diamond.
The only solution I found so far is using the device lock after 0min. so I could avoid accident calls in my pocket. But there is the annoying PIN nr. every time... :/
Today I noticed, the device keeps going out of standby cca. every 10-20mins. Bad. The screen turns on and after few secs off..
mine too, every 10/20 mins.
will be some software doin it i think.
Hi, I have had sweep2wake/double tap to wake for a long time now, and I've always had a problem with waking up in the pocket, but there's one thing that is weird. If I leave it in my pocket for too long, the screen will become unresponsive, eg I can press the power button to turn the screen on, but after that I can't use the screen. I have to reboot to get the screen to work again.
Anyone have a problem like this?
i do get that some times.
you can try placing all ten fingers on the screen at one time and then try the touch screen again.
works well for me when my touch screen hangs.

That is a well known issue and we can't do anything for it. you can use a flipcover case and avoid such problem or else sacirfice s2s/d2w feature.
I see, thanks

Hi there. I'm currently having an issue with my S7 edge where the lock screen won't turn off after some time. The screen does turn off when I'm using the phone normally from the main screen after some time passes but it's just the lock screen I have issues with.
Whenever I charge my phone or just hit the power button once to see notifications on the lock screen, it'll just stay like that until the same time the main screen timeout configured time passes (5 minutes) and this is getting annoying and somewhat draining a little bit more of my battery. Previously it was working fine and the lock screen would turn off after around 10 seconds or so.
Has anyone faced any similar issues with their phones? I haven't tried a factory reset yet but I'd want that to be a last resort.
Clear Background apps.
It happens when you left some games or apps by pressing home button but it keeps running. Hope they will fix this soon.
Have you tried pressing that little button on the right side of the phone? That usually helps.
Yeah...I already tried that with no luck. Even tried uninstalling some recent apps in case one of them was cause but it didn't work either. Any other suggestions?
The issue isn't with turning the phone screen off by pressing the power button, it's the lock screen itself not turning off after a few seconds when it usually does.
I'm having the same problem, had good lock installed thought that may have been the problem but after uninstalling that I'm still having the same problem with samsungs oem lock screen. I too would like an answer or fix for this. also to note, in developer options the stay awake is off and no apps running in the background.
I am having this problem now also. The screen will lock, but the display stays on but dimmed. I can tap the screen and it will get bright. Now I must click the side button every time I set my phone down or the screen will drain the battery.
I'm facing exactly the same issue. When the screen is locked, it stays on for the same time confirmed to when its unlocked. For example, 1 minute, instead of 10-15 seconds.
Any workaround discovered for this?
Did anyone find a solution to this problem?
I thought that I might've been the only one! This problem only appeared on my phone after the Nougat update, and it's extremely annoying as I rely on notifications waking the screen for my main messaging app.

Hello, I am having the same issue in my Redmi note 11 pro plus Phone. In my case The screen will lock but display stays on with dimmed light. Usually it is not visible during day, but in dark room its visible. And it stays the same way whole night. And battery is fully drained and phone is turned off. Is there a solution for this??
Hi, first of all this is my first thread, i hope you guys can help me. Sorry for bad english
I own a S5 G-900F. The phone was working fine until the screen started sometimes, ramdomly to turn black (with ramdom pixels in colours inside) like 5 seconds, then turns off and the phone restarts. This can happen 1-2 times a day while im browsing or doing anything, or even when i turn the screen on to unlock the phone, it turns on and this happens.
I think its a battery problem, it has 2 years and it might be giving low voltage (i have no idea), or maybe a motherboard problem? some water entered inside the case but im not sure.
Another thing i have to say, the "back" button works, as the menu button, but the "back" button has no light. This is weird and i think its related to the water problem. Both buttons work good, but the back button sometimes doesnt light up.
Thank you for the help
Hi,
i have tome hassle with the hard press home thing.
Sometimes its working ok sometimes it does weird things.
for instance ... if i press the button hard it some times vibrates , when i let go it vibrates again and its unlocked... thats when i think its working correctly.
but sometimes it just vibrates two times although i didnt let go ...
sometimes on homescreen i swipe the homebutton slightly to clean it a bit... not hard pressing and its vibrating. sometimes one single time sometimes two times in a row .
anyone with the same issue ?
thanks
no one ?
Check what sensitivity you have the button set at. It could be too high or low.
I have mine set in the middle and never have an issue.
i tried severeal sensitivity settings ... sometimes it gets better and sometimes worse... but for me its not satisfying
i think i have to weit for an update or so ...
I had the exact same issue with my S8. Sometimes it just works, sometimes it doesn't detect it, sometimes it registers several hard presses even though I've barely touched it (sensitivity reduced as far as it goes).
This has been driving me crazy for the past week. The hard press function was unusable because of this.
At first I thought it's a software issue (something to do with calibration maybe?). I got an update which didn't fix it. I tried resetting it which didn't work either so I sent it back to Samsung yesterday. Waiting to see what they have to say about it.
The lack of complaints about this so far made me think it's just a weird issue with my unit.
I'm having exactly the same problem and it's driving me nuts for not knowing if it's a hardware or a software problem.
I've googled around and this is the only thread so far. Seems like there are very few people with this issue.
Let me know how the repair request went.
i sent it back also
new one is coming tomorrow ... lets see... will report
I have that issue too. Dont know what to do.

Oh wow, that's really fast. I still haven't heard anything from them. Did they give any information about what's wrong (hardware/software)?
no ... i didnt sent it back to samsung.
i bought it from amazon.de and ordered a replacement.
thats faster
it will arrive today then i can sent back my first one...
same here, having issues with the home press function .
I also send it back to the shop where I bought it
I´ve send mine back to the webshop also. My mate got his s8 2 days ago and his hard press was perfect and responded smoothly all the time. So i guess it must be a hardware problem.
Will share more info when i get feedback from the repair.
Same problem here, sometimes it works, sometimes (when the device is in standby) it works only after several tries and pressure in different spots.
Can someone who has got a new device or sent it to repair report if it is better now?
Hardware issue... my replacment Works fine now
Same problem
I have this issue also. Mostly it works, but sometimes it doesn't work and the phone hesitates to come back to life. If I press the power button after hard pressing the home button or just wait 5-10 seconds, the screen will come on. Oddly, when it doesn't work (and occasionally when it does), the small vibration thing happens. I have this turned off, but sometimes when hard pressing the home button, I get the vibration, but the screen won't come on. Other times, I get the vibration and the screen will come on. Mostly I don't get the vibration and the screen comes on. Annoying.

As i said ... it seems to be a Hardware issue. Get a replacement
Mine does this often, i personally could care less for the home button function so I set the sensitivity to max and yet at times if I barely touch the home button area it acts like I have hard pressed the button.

I have the same problem maybe even worse. To me it looks like it is accumulating presses, the more times I press the button the more times it vibrates. So at the end I sometimes get 4 or more vibrations for just one press. Sometimes after I lock the screen it vibrates by itself and turns on the screen.
Looks like I'll get mine replaced ASAP.
Got the same issue once in a while.. also have a faint red glow on the screen. Considering getting it replaced but dont want to wait for a replacement.
