[Q] Vibrates when screen sleeps - Epic 4G General

When certain apps are running and my screen sleeps, the phone will vibrate once, wait a second, and vibrate again. With that same app open (TD Ameritrade) it vibrates the same way when I rotate the phone, or turn the power off. I don't recall this happening on Eclair, but does on Froyo EC05. Has anyone else noticed this for certain apps, and am I missing a setting?
I don't like the vibration, BTW, and want it turned off. Very irritating.
Thanks!

Yes, this keeps happening to me too. The second time it vibrates in two short bursts. Usually when this happens something force closes as well.

[Q]Screen waking by itself?

My screen periodically wakes by itself (to the lockscreen). It doesn't seem to be the trackpad because I can't purposely reproduce the wake by sliding my finger over it or lightly tapping it. It seems to be internal. There are no notifications present after the wake. The phone shouldn't wake due to background processes, sync, signal search, etc. I'm rooted and on stock recovery. I do run SetCPU but that shouldn't wake the phone. What's going on?
I did a factory reset but installed backed up apps using TB and the problem still exists. I may have to do a reset without installing backups if this keeps happening.
Does anyone have any real insight into what could be happening?
Could be an app downloading, or maybe somthing thats constantly updating. Try turn that "refresh" toggle off, its on the power control widget. Then turn screen off and see if the problem persists. Also make sure have your security setting set up right. Make sure the phone locks IMMEDIATELY after you turn the screen off.

All my installed apps are set NOT to auto-update through the market so nothing would be downloading. If by "refresh" you are referring to the sync toggle, that shouldn't wake the phone. Sync doesn't wake. If it did, our phones would all be popping on randomly all the time. Security set up right? I don't use any security. Just the standard lockscreen. The phone locks when I push the power button. It just comes on sometimes without any other input. It's not waking to the homescreen. The screen is just waking to the lockscreen and will time out and shut off again by itself.
I'm suspecting either Titanium or DoubleTwist are acting funky.

Try flashing back to stock DK28 through Odin and see if that fixes it. I have encountered this problem before, Odin fixed it for me with no issues.

I had that happen before on stock DI18. It would reboot if I got an email/text/message/missed call/etc, and if I changed the notification sounds to something other than default, it would work fine.
Since I did a hard reset, it hasn't happened.

[Q] Phone vibrates too often

Has anyone else noticed that since updating to EB13 your phone vibrates all the time? I've turned off haptic feedback, but it seems I can't change a screen without my phone vibrating. Any idea what I'm missing?

Screen Turning on delay !!!!

Rom: Olyfr sbf upgraded to 4.1.5.7 from 4.1.2.6 via OTA
Not rooted
I have not yet modified the power button.
'Cause I set up the fingerprint unlock,Im used to swiping my finger after press the power button.
after pending or standing by a while(maybe),It vibrates once after my unlocking through scanning fingerprint.But!!!! The screen is still black!!!
Meanwhile,touching the four buttons on the bottom,it still vibrates!
And waiting for seconds,Screen on~~~~~
Symptoms sound a lot like my Bell Vibrant before it died after the Froyo upgrade.
Have you tried resetting your phone yet?...
Okay,I have flash it to 4.157sbf,and temporarily nothing goes wrong
I have the same symptoms. Sometimes when I push the power button it takes 3-5 seconds or more for the screen to light up. I did a power off and on and it works better. Not sure what is causing this but it is annoying.
I've had this on.both my atrixes and it seems to.resolve itself as the phone gets older

I have had the same issue on mine. It occurs intermittently. Not always, but sometimes. And when the screen is turned off, I push the power button and nothing happens for about 3-5 seconds. Sometimes longer.
I do also have the fingerprint security feature on, though I am not sure if that that has something to do with it. However there is another problem with the fingerprint security.
Sometimes I want to check the time so I just turn on my screen and quickly turn it back off. But the screen turns right back on cuz it recognized my click as a fingerprint. However since it is too short to be recognized, it just turns my screen back on and says to try again. I try to turn the screen off again and the same thing. This also happens on occasions.
They need to make the power button better so that ways it does not recognize a screen turn off as a fingerprint swipe.
I have had similar problems. Rebooting has usually fixed them, at least for a while

Slow to wake up

Have I got a dodgy phone or is this normal?
Pressing the power button to wake the phone up, it takes 1 - 1.5 secs to put the screen on.
Also, when finishing a call and taking it away from my face, it takes 2 secs to put the screen back on so I can finish the call! The other party usually ends the call before me.
Would some of you post your experiences so I know I am(/not) alone?!
(For reference, my Desire switches screen on after <0.5 secs.)
try doing a reset/format.
Mine is pretty slow to wake up as well, maybe 1.5 seconds. I haven't made any calls on it yet though.
Confirmed, take 1-2 s to wake up
Wake up is instant for me. But it does take a second or so after a call. I think that's so it doesn't cut you off by accident.

Mine wakes up instantly...
Wake up is instant for me aswell.
Thanks all.
Interestingly, as I wrote that post I was upgrading through Kies to the KDD(?) firmware (from KDA or something), and since then it seems to be a lot quicker to wake normally.
Maybe it's as simple as the f/w.
On mine when auto brightness is on I get a slight delay, no delay when manually set.

Iv hada bit of a delay, tried turning auto-brightness off, and it's fixed it.
So, a small delay for auto-brightness, just like you
I had this so turned off auto brightness and it sorted it but now I've rebooted and the delay is back again.

I am having the same problem, takes more than a second to wake up, already KDD firmware and turned off auto brightness, still
Well I always thought having a delayed wake up time is better than instantly. Like when the screen is off, it is in standby mode and when you wake it up, it will take about a second or two to wake up. Just like how a computer works. If your screen wakes up instantly, it would mean it is not in standby mode properly.
However for a phone, I would say a second or two is too long. Should be half of a second max.
(Speculation)
Might be widget related - the SGS2 seems to be loading up homescreen widgets before the lockscreen is shown, unlike other (well.. 1) devices that load the widgets only after you unlock the device.
Uhmm.. it's a long shot, but people who have the wake up delay - try removing all your widgets for a bit and testing to see if the delay vanishes.
Other long shot is that the log shows the brightness sensor is checked on wake up regardless of auto brightness set to on or off (at least, there is a log message mentioning it), so it might still be brightness sensor related.
what i wrote made no sense, discard
I removed the Auto Brightness config and it seems to wake instantly...not tested it that thoroughly though.

You bought an SGSII?
I have the same problem and I am using the pattern lock. Maybe it's that?
I find when the phone is plugged into mains it starts instantly, not sure why though
