I was trying to listen to Beyondpod on my way to work today, but if I pressed power off (standby) it stops playing...
If I wait for it to power itself off, its fine. How can I stop it killing apps when I power off?
Thanks.

Hi All,
My Wizard is set to turn the screen off after a minute of inactivity.
To get it back on, I have to press the power button.
I've checked in backlight and power settings and have it set to allow a screen tap to turn the backlight on, but it's not working - well, if the backlight's off but the screen's on it works ok, but I want a tap to turn the screen and the backlight on together. At the moment I have to press the power button, which upsets Pocket Player MP3 playback...or I can press a hardware button, but again, this tends to interrupt playback of music as all the buttons are mapped to something.
Seems a simple request, am I missing anything? This is under the Mr Clean ROM, if it makes a difference.

Once the screen goes off, the phone is "sleeping". The only way I know of to turn it on at this point is to tap the power button. To do what you want would be turn turn off the screen going into sleep mode, but that will come at the expense of your battery life. Start>Settings>Power>Advanced then uncheck the Turn off device under On Battery Power.
device lock(s)
A halfway solution, you could turn the screen off using the device lock app, which includes screen off. Then when you press the power button it only effects the screen and not anything which is running. The second one is very good for listening to music with, assuming you volume control button isn't broken like mine
So I think there might be something wrong with the power button, when it does work it has a 5 second lag between pressing it and when the lock screen pops up. However, there have been several times where I'm going to bring it out of sleep mode and it doesn't wake up - so I press and hold the power button for a few seconds and nothing. When I press it again it vibrates and boots up normally. So what I think is happening is I'm actually turning it off, thinking that it's having issues with the SOD, and then turning it back on again. But no matter how many times I just simply press the power button it still won't bring up the lock screen out of sleep. So is there some way I can turn it on via the volume rocker?
Thanks in advanced.

That is the sleep of death. No on the volume without special programming.
Well, the only thing that made me think it was otherwise was the battery stats - it shows that the tablet has been awake the whole time it's been in SOD...

That is what I have found, it is still running. That is why you have to monkey with the power button, the first long press shuts it off even tho it looks to be off. After it is shut down, then it will turn back on. Their are some ics roms that this is fixed in. I used to have the sod, but the rom I am using don't have that problem and I have had that problem with all roms, sept ics.
Was trying out with the new Sony SBH20 NFC A2DP that i just buy and there seems to be a issue with the connection whenever i turn off the screen while listening to songs. The songs will have constant breakoff but when i turn on the screen, it will be find. Anyone have this problem while connecting to any bluetooth device?
When you press the power button to put the tablet to sleep, I don't think it's possible to keep the music playing. Which explains why it will start working again as soon as you press the button to get it out of sleep.

I was using my phone (43% battery) listening to music using the castbox podcast app when suddenly the music stopped and my phone completely froze, nothing worked not even stand by, i held down the power button to restart it but it just turned off and would not turn on again, i then left it and after around 10 minutes i see it has turned on, to a white google logo with a grey background (never seen that before) i hold down the power button again to try and restart it but it then just turned off again and wouldnt do anything regardless of what buttons i pressed (power/ power + volume up/down) i have plugged it in, still nothing, and nothing when pressing buttons while plugged in.
any one got any idea what could be wrong or how i could fix this?

Welcome new XDA member.... first post? Many threads on this topic. Have you held the power button down by itself for several minutes? Were you having ANY battery issues leading up to this? Can you boot to Recovery? Are you running TWRP?
Hi all,
in last 2 days, after over a year of normal use, my s7 edge suddently turn off and won't turn on by power button.
I connected to the charger ad battery level was over 50%. Pressing power button it turn on and i can use it or a while then it turno off again.
Someone else had this problem? How can i solve?
Thanks
i am also facing the same issue. My S7E randomly shuts down, and pressing down power button doesn't turn the phone on (I have tried Power+volume down). After several hours, when I put it to charge it turns on, and the battery is always at 0%, even though the phone 80%+ charge before crashing. Some times it makes sound, demonic like when its about to crash, sometimes it doesn't. Some times the capacitive touch keys have lights on, sometimes it doesn't. It is totally random so i can't really pinpoint the issue.
It has the Dec security patch and is on android 8.0
