Well those of you like myself that were having the issues of hitting the power button only to see a black screen, here is all I did and its been working flawless for 24 hours. Turn of the screen lock! I haven't tested other screen locks yet so maybe its just the default one
If this dose not work for you please post.
Trying this myself now. It had previously happened 3 times to me with the default lock screen. If this does work, that sucks cause I really liked the lock screen... Does anyone know if either of the firmware updates addresses this particular issue? I haven't done them yet was waiting for the new root method which was just released yesterday.
maybe that's why i never had that problem... i always had a pin from day1
I am updated to the latest firmware and the issue still existed. Are you running a battery monitor widget?
turning off screen lock didn't do the trick for me
what worked for me is disable wifi before turning the screening off or go into option and change it so that it never disconnect from wifi will fix the issue for me though

I used the update.zip from the Samsung site to update to EB13, everything went off just fine except my Epic now takes an average of 2 seconds to wake from sleep after pressing the power button, sometimes going up to 4 or 5. Not the worst thing in the world, but pretty annoying.
I narrowed it down to my non-usage of the lock screen. I typically run without using a lock screen at all (disabled via SwitchPro Widget). If I turn the lock screen back ON, my Epic wakes from sleep either instantly or within 1/2 a second. With the lock screen disabled (no pattern lock either), it's super slow to wake.
Anyone have any ideas on what I could try?
Mine works just fine, but I'm using the lock screen, try uninstalling that widget and see if it corrects the problem when you use the lock screen.
Small update to this. I had an idea to move all the apps that I had moved to the SD card back to the phone to see if that helped. It does. With the lock screen on, my Epic comes back from sleep instantly every time. With lock screen off it varies between 1/2 and 1 second.
The apps I moved to SD were ones I hardly used.. I don't know why that would have an effect on the wake time?
Mine seems a bit slow too. But it's not the 4 or 5 seconds you described. It seems like it's about one second, when it used to be anywhere between instantly and half a second.
It's kind of annoying because the delay is just barely too long to where I start second guessing myself on whether or not I pushed the button in all the way or not.
Go to your display setting and reset your horizantal calibration accelerometer... that fixed my phone waking up issue...

Unfortunately, I had already tried recalibrating. I do, however, have no lock on and widget locker running. Do any of you use either of these?

I use the same program as you do and I have the exact same problem So your not alone.
Mine is slow to wake also, about a second. When its plugged into the charger its instant, weird.
I'm glad we aren't alone though. Hopefully if this is a big enough issue, people will look into it. And also, they've pulled the EB13 update from Sprint and Samsung's website.
It's causing problems with reading media from the SD card and also has data issues. So hopefully in the new one, they will fix this problem too?
Looks like it's No Lock, from what I can tell. If you disable it, it comes on instantly. If it's enabled, it takes it a moment to wake up.
Hello,
I recently noticed an issue with my wifi (stock 2.3.3), where an app that needs to update regularly didn't seem to be doing it when the screen was off. As the phone always sits on its dock when I'm at home, I "solved" the issue by making the screen never turn off.
However, today I decided to give SIPdroid another go, as I tested it when I first got my phone and it wasn't working properly. I found out why, the second I put the phone to my ear, the screen turns off and the sound cuts. If I take the phone away, I suddenly get all the audio high speed as it catches back up.
A bit of googling showed this to be a known issue, the wifi goes into power saving mode when the screen turns off - on SIPdroid there's an option to keep the screen off and it seems to work well, it just dims the screen instead. But that's still an unnecessary battery drain.
I had trouble finding any recent info on the issue (within the past 6 months), maybe I was just using the wrong keywords. So I thought I'd ask here. Does anyone know anything about this issue? Is it likely to be fixed in the next version of android if it ever comes to the desire HD? Maybe there's a fix out there already (preferably without rooting and/or installing custom rom, my phone is just right as it is now...).
Settings>Wireless & Networks>Wifi settings>Hit 'Menu'>Advanced>Wifi sleep policy>Never
That'll prevent the wifi turning off when the screen turns off.

I tried that before posting, it makes no difference whatsoever (besides, the sleep policy is either never or 15 minutes, this problem occurs the second the screen goes off).
If u re root: change radio... try anyone.
stock: mmm default reset to try. (i think)
No:

Reading through the comments, it seems a more general android problem. A reset wouldn't fix it.

Dear all,
a few days ago I started again using Cyanogenmod, first latest stable (10.1.2) and today also latest nightly.
In Settings lockscreen is enabled with cLock-Widget, till now I tried normal unlock (move only), pattern, PIN and Password but in 90% of all cases, if I switch of my Nexus with Power, it is NOT locked. Pressing Power again, after a few seconds, minutes or just hours still show homescreen oder latest app which was open. Same if I do not use Power but waiting for automatic Lockscreen.
Do anyone has the same problem or just know how to fix that?

What are your settings for under Security for:
"Automatically Lock after ## after sleep" and do you have "Power button instantly locks" checked?

I've noticed this as well. Since around the time of the 10.1.2 release.
Basically, I've changed the default settings so there's a lock screen and it works at first, but then, seemingly randomly will stop working, ie no lock screen whatsoever. I can leave the phone for hours, and there's no security.
Seems like a pretty serious flaw to me. I've actually upgraded my CM installation, as well as done a complete reinstall, doing a factory reset, and updating to the latest nightly, ie last nights, and this issue is still there.
Basically means I can't rely on CM for keeping my phone secure. I've changed the settings back and forth, tried different security settings, reset things, reinstalled, etc. Tried everything I can think of.
Yes, all the proper settings are there, basically CM's default settings once you turn the lock screen on should work, power button instantly locks, timeout etc.
About ready to go back to an earlier version or different rom completely.
Anyone have any thoughts?

I just loaded my first rom on my Note 2 today. Getting the same thing. The quick fix is to close all the open apps, then it kicks you right back into the lock screen. I double click, then button in the top right and closes them all auto for me. I think it might be FB Messenger causing the issues but I can't say for sure. LMK if you that helps in the short term?
Am not running FB Messanger, so that's not causing it for me.
I'm using a pattern on my lock screen, not sure if this issue exists with all types of lock screens.
Hi all,
I've just installed CM 10.1.2 on my SGS2 (GT-I9100) yesterday and I had the exact same problem.
I've just figured out where the problem is:
I use Handcent SMS app, and when I receive a text, a quick reply window pop up. If I type my reply in it and hit send, it deactivate my lock screen.
Hope my answer helps!
I have the same issue. Disabled the popup function in Handcent settings and lockscreen i working.

There is an app that is bypassing the lock screen.
For me it was a proximity screen of app...
My N4 was away to repair a broken screen. Got it back on Wednesday and it immediately updated to 4.3. All was well, except for one weird issue where hitting a notification from the pull down would take me to the app via the pattern lock. I put this down to having played with some lock screen settings in Setting Profiles app (trying to disable it in certain settings), but it might not have been.
I've done the first device restart today, and after rebooting there are a few big issues.
1. I don't appear to have any mobile network, though wifi is connected. I had a good signal before the reboot.
2. I'm not getting a lock pattern or any lock screen at all, and it's not asked for the SIM pin
3. Hitting a notification in the pull-down makes the 'lock' clicking sound as it takes me to the app
4. The home button doesn't work. I see a slight dim of the screen and it makes the lock click sound, but nothing happens. Back and multitask work fine
Help! Any ideas? Are they known issues? Can't seem to find any reference online.
I'm on stock, using Nova Launcher

Those are not any known issues or anything I have read since Andrid 4.3 came out. Try a factory reset to see if that solves the problem. If not, maybe the screen wasn´t the only thing broken on your device. Ask for warranty.
Thanks, will see how I get on this evening and try a factory reset if it doesn't fix itself.
Seems to be a weird problem related to the lock screen and when it should/shouldn't kick in...

Glad I could help.
Ok, I've done a factory reset. Not had much chance to play as it took hours to reinstall everything. But I've just had the word issue where selecting something from the notification tray (the setting profiles shortcut) took me to the lock screen to put in my pattern first, then took me to the app.
EDIT no pattern to when it does it, seems random and can be while I'm using the device, so the lock screen shouldn't kick in for any reason
Any ideas? Faulty device?
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

Why you dont flash again your original firmware via odin ? If a software problem i think need be solved.
