Im on rooted Dell Official 351, and I still have screen freezes. Is anyone else out there having any such issues on an official build? I didnt have any issues like this with my first Streak. Beginning to get pretty frustrated with this nonesense. It especially occurs after a call. No other issues. Still enough to drive you mad.

Hi,
I had this issue only with the official roms. Never so far in the last 6 months on DJ Steve's ROMs.
I think the dialer uses more system resources in the newer Dell builds as I didn't have this issue with build 318 but now it happens every once in a while with build 351. It also seems the light sensor isn't working very well when on a call, because my streak seems to get confused and the screen will stay blacked out when I take it away from my face.
You've done the typical factory reset and then tested, right? You also updated to all of the build 351 files, right?
Mine does the same thing. I have found that it is the heat from your body that locks it up. When talking, keep your cheek away from the screen. When carrying in a pocket, turn the screen so it's away from your body. Mine hardly ever locks up now.
We've discussed this problem befored,the streak's screen is sensitive to heat,humidity(sweat,namely),and electric field.Keep your screen from all these things helps a lot.And recalibration is recommended if problem persist.

I did all the typical stuff you've mentioned here. But as far as updating all the 351 files im not sure I follow. I got the baseband and update file from Manii's index, and I only downloaded the amss, recovery and update files. Should I have downloaded all other files as well? Brings me to another question in regards to qdl tool. In the images folder many of the other file types are listed there. Is this the folder the qdl.exe references? Meaning can I just replace all the files and then run the tool to get to a certain build?

Yup this is a good piece of advice.Another good advice is.....sell it asap,I am also tired of the Streak just because of the stupid sensitive screen.I can't unlock it sometimes.What if I need it in emergency case?
Works for me,I think the streak's screen is good enough as long as you know how to maintain.Probably becuz I had a EVEN WORSE experience with nook color

What happen to your nook?
Have you tried a screen recalibration. It should ne done after any rom update. This solved my screen issues.

HOw do you do the screen calibration? I know its in the fastboot screen but it just has a keypad. What exactly are you supposed to do?

Is there a screen calibrate for the aria? The phone is basically unusable. The screen responds to touch but only rarely and in an area far from where your finger actually is.

No there is not. Is this phone brand new? If so, just return it.

No issues here. Actually more usable screen than my brothers "giant" X10, despite its smaller size.
Ive had an issue with the screen for a while now. No matter what version of android ive tried other than the stock US1.6.
When it stops responding to touch the streak has to be reset with battery removal
Am I the only one? Any fixes im not seeing?

Hi,
I've been viewing the forums now since the phone was released and haven't seen anyone come across the problem I have now.
Basically, the screen will swipe and press things on its own without my input. It happens everyday but not all time.
I have a rooted 2.3.3 R800i from UK with locked bootloader.
Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated.
Thanks.
This happens to me when there's moisture on the screen. Wiping it off always fixes the problem. Make sure your fingers are dry when using it.

Thanks for the suggestiron, however after trying this the problem still occurs.
So now I tried changing the screen protector but nothing has changed.

Yes it's similar. Except its not just typing, it can be on the homescreen and my widgets/icons open on their own without me touching anything.

I had this exact problem too.
It seems to be fixed with the newest firmware upgrade we recently got.
My guess is that it is a touchscreen hardware problem that they have managed to fix via a software solution.
ok, I might have to try the update then.
Only problem is will it wipe off my root?

Not as bad, but the problem still persists.
I have tried kj4, kka and sheep rom. All have the annoying long wait after pressing power button intil the screen is lit up. Also tried different CPU governors without result. What is the problem here? And can it be solved?
Is it just me, or do others experience this as a prob?

I've got the same rom, but I don't see the problem you described.... try to reinstall the rom.
ps: you should post this under the thread of your rom, without creating a new one
You may have a defective device.

mine is like 2seconds after the bootanimations and stops at samsung logo..fast enough for me
I have the same problem with my note. I just got mine yesterday. No clue as to what's causing it. I updated my firmware to the latest but left the old kernel so i could keep root access. Had the same problem with both the new and the old firmware.

Just to clarify the issue here:
When the phone is on but screen has been off for a while, the time between pushing pwr button and until the screen lights up is about 1 second, it may not sound much but it just enough to make one press the button once again. Not what i am used to on my previous androids from HTC.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk
Same here. KJ4, stock KKA and sheep KKA. It is annoying indeed...
Probably a user experience thing, you guys who claim to NOT have the issue:
Can you lock the screen and wait for like 10 mins and then on the screen again and time the delay from button press to screen light-up?

Where do you come frome? I mean are u used to Samsung devices or something else?
I am judging this by my 2 previous HTC's whith all kinds of different Roms where I have never seen this.
My thought is that it is on all notes but some people does not see it as a problem but you and me do.

I am having the same issue. Takes 1-2 seconds until the device is fully powered up from standby...
I think I figured out the issue. I disabled weather on the lock screen and now my phone comes straight on. Maybe everyone with the issue can try that and see if it works for them?
Confirmed, getting rid of the weather on the lock screen gets rid of the lag
I'm having the same prob. I'll try removing the weather app and see if that helps.
Great no I cant remember how to remove it. help

nope mine is snap on... did u try turning off display animations? if not try it
This was there even on the s2..
yea, mines also has the same 1-2 sec delay. no weather on lock screen. found it odd, cause i've only had HTC phones so far, and never saw this.
Samsung don't use early_resume in the kernel, that Seems To be more qualcomm Related code.
It's that Code that gives you instant screen resume on the HTC devices et al.
I found this a niggle on the note as well, but have got Used to it,especially compared to amount of work it would take to fix it.

Wich rom are you in? With several roms (as it was with ICSGS, fixed in newer releases) it can be a common software issue. How exactly is the "flicker"?

Oh sorry I was using tapatalk and didn't see the sig. Most likely to be a software issue, don't worry! I'm on ICSSGS, and it should have it already fixed, but still happens now and then... Don't know if it's the same kind of flicker, but it definitely seems software, and even more if you are using a custom ROM... Have you search in your ROM's thread if anyone else have the same problem?
