Anyone else having this problem,
Sometimes when I get to unlock screen and swipe across it doesnt react to it the first time and I have to do it again.
Yes. Many, many times. I resolved this by downloading an app that gets rid of the bar from me, so now I press home. Unfortunately this means I have no security on my phone. Yay!
Yea; I mean how much of a problem is it though? I guess it takes a second sometomes to initialize the scanner.

I am not talking about the finger printer reader, also at work I have about 1 second to check phone, so it just gets annoying when I spend that one second trying to get passed the lock screen
Oh! Yea that happens to me sometimes as well; I hate it.
It also "confuses" me when I slide it but there's nothing really being slid you know? Just the color.

Never had a problem with slide to unlock.
The finger scanner though, you have to remember at what angle and what direction you scanned in. Finding a comfortable swipe is better than trying to get a correct register. It's kind of like practicing golf swings.
I didn't have this issue till I did a factory reset, now the lock screen is soo slow.

Was going to say same thing. I did my 1.5.7 update a little bit ago and really having seconds from when I hit the power button until my screen wakes up. I can actually hit the button and scan my finger before it comes on. Anyone else having this type of slowdown?
Sorry for bringing up a old thread but kinda based on what I am dealing with.
My Atrix keeps waking itself up after putting it to sleep and STAYING on...
It is killing the battery life. This has only happened since the update...
Solutions?
I had that once before on my old build. Not sure what did it but it did end up stopping after a little bit myself. I think it was an app that was doing it

I would check to see if any apps are causing your phone to wake up; I remember this happening on my Captivate last year. I don't remember what the problem was but I knew it stopped after a week or so.
Something I have noticed with 1.5.7 the supposed fix to allow the phone to sleep while charging was a sinple change in the setting under development. I also have noticed when you place the phone on the charger if the lock screen is up and you are using the fingerprint scanner. you can never ( or should I say rarely) get it to stay asleep as it keeps reading the button press as a finger swipe. The only solution I have found is to make the the phone is on the home screen and press the button to make it sleep. then it stays asleep
I have had things like this happen to me, for a while I was using GingerBlur and I thought thats why the phone was glitching but when I went back to stock I had it glitch like this a few times on me also... I almost feel like my Atrix is running a beta...
I have not had any issues with the slider itself but i have observed this for a few days now. When i slide to unlock the screen, it goes directly to the contacts page and just freezes for a while. no other buttons work except hitting the home button and then ot works as usual. Any pointers? i recently rooted my phone and flashed it with the Alien rom [build #4 - 2.6.32.9]
I witnessed my transformer just spontaneously reboot. That's really weird. Anyway to figure out what's going on? I think it happened once when i was charging it over night and this time it happened while it was just idling. Those are the only 2 times i've seen it do it. Im a little freaked by it though.
Mine started doing this also recently, and it only seems to do it when docked and idle and the screen is up, if I close the lid I don't believe it's ever done it that way. I think whatever it is likely is a software issue, maybe some app I installed started making it happen becuase it only started doing it this week. I wouldn't worry too much about it, it is annoying as crud but I imagine it will be fixed with an update.
This is a Known problem, what FW version are you running?

Try turn off "auto brightness".
Hi, is anyone else getting random reboots on their tablets? im running 3.1 its rebooting like crazy yesterday it did it 3 times one after the other and it just did one right. is their a fix for this? ill greatly appreciate it if you help
~Thanks
the only fix I've discovered is that I have to turn off the wifi before idling for awhile. Mine only reboots after it goes into sleep, never when I'm actually using it.
yea it only does in idle, so theirs no actual fix to this?
I haven't experienced this, but I also put my tablet in Airplane Mode when I know I won't be using it for several hours or a day.
I do this to conserve battery life, but I suppose it's also meant that I don't see this problem -- assuming it's a widespread problem to begin with.
For now -- until we get another software update that might fix the issue -- try getting into the habit of switching to Airplane Mode when you're done using it. It only takes two taps.
Mine did it to me today for the first time while the screen was turned off. It never happened until today or at least I have never witnessed it. I have had mine for just over a week. I also put mine into airplane mode & have been all a long when putting it to sleep. I read in another thread that under wireless setting you can set so wifi goes off with screen off under wifi disconnect policy. I don't think that wifi does turn off though.
The only other thing that has changed is that I installed the Riptide GP Demo last night. I didn't play it until today. Shortly after I was finished I put my Transformer to sleep (screen off). After a few minutes I heard pop & just a single pop. I turned my transformer back on then off. I heard this poping noise a couple of more times. I finally restart my transformer & problem went away. It was a short time later when my transformer rebooted its self.
It does this only when docked to the keyboard. I have stopped using my keyboard for now until there's a fix for this. Lost a long document last week because of the random reboot.
I'm on 3.1 and haven't experienced this. Strange.
Does this once or so every day when sleeping, doesn't matter if docked or not.

If you have an sdcard plugged in the dock, you can try to remove it.
It worked for me.

What did you change? Did you add an app, take an app update, change a setting, insert a new SD card?
I have never experienced a unexpected reboot.

Has anyone else goten a ton of random reboots? It tends to happen when I am not using the dvice, and it's docked with the screen open and turned off. About every few hours, I see the EEE Pad restart. Even when I do not have it near me, I often come back to it only to find that AndChat/my other running programs have stopped running, which suggests the device reboot itself.
Hi,
I can't say that have seen lots of them, but last weekend as I was putting it down, as usual I switched off the screen by pressing the On/Off button... and it rebooted!?!??!?!
There is no way that I have held down the button for over 4 sec, and it should ask me whether to shut down first, and finally I have never seen an option on the TF for rebooting the device.
Any ideas guys?

I have the same trouble I have noticed this today.
MP3 player on pause, tablet docked and open on my desk and after a while (like 5 or 10 min) I look at it and it's rebooting...
Quite strange.
Sounds like a power management trouble.
Would really love to know what's wrong with it.

What about that don't have dock & this happens?
Yes mine does it fairly often and I had never seen it happen undocked before until this weekend. I started undocking it at night due to the battery drain issue and both Sat and Sunday when I undocked it and sat the tablet aside, the tablet auto reboot. Previously I had seen this happen only when docked and sleeping and when the screen was open. Very annoying, wish they'd fix this.
I had it wake up a few times when it notified me I had mail..of those times...it rebooted on me.
Turning off background sync did the trick for me. It really is annoying..sometimes come from work and power level dropped dramatically...now when I go anywhere..airplane mode helps...pia but it gets the job done.
It seems my phone has a problem of ghost touch. The status bar slides down automatically and randomly. I turned on developer mode to see what happened, it seems, some coordinates near (320, 0) are clicked very often with no reason at all. It annoys me a lot since it interrupts my normal operation. Did someone has the same problem? And how do you solve it? Thanks
I had the same issue. top right of my screen would think it was being touch when it wasnt.
Yes, my wife's ph-1 has this issue. the ghost touches liked a bunch of Instagram posts, it was hilarious seeing my wife's reaction to this, and then she had to go back and unlike a bunch of crap posts.
But this is an issue and very serious one. I believe this could be also causing battery drain if it interacts with OS and causes deep sleep not to kick in when it should. If the issue happens again I will be contacting support to get this BS sorted out.
I have this issue on the oreo beta although it will keep touching the same spot continuously for about a minute or so and if it happens while the phones locked i cant do anything till it stops luckily its been happening less and less often
I had this happen on one phone but not the others, worse when the phone got hot
i think it's the screen, if you look closely, its not flat. Mine is kinda wavey at the edges, like there's a little too much adhesive, and i think that waviness gets worse when the phone gets hot, and causes the phantom touch

It was gone for 3 days and now the problem is back today. I tried to restart in safe mode and problem is still there so it is a system issue, not caused by third party app.
Same issue here. No rhyme or reason I can see as to why
Mine was happening on my old PH-1 without the earpiece screen, but i got the new version i got has no issue.
This issue is very annoying I'm thinking of returning the device to Sprint and getting another but since it happens so random I wouldn't even be able to show them the issue. Thought it was an issue with the oreo beta but after going back to stock I still have the issue starting to regret buying this phone
I've never experienced this issue on mine
Bump. Been happening to me on Oreo beta. About once or twice a day it happens. I just lock and unlock the phone and it stops. It's weird. I think it has something to do with the screen sensitivity. It's more prone to happening when the device screen is all smudgy or if I just washed my hands.
I have the same issue too.

Me too
Same issue here as well. I did the touch sensitivity trick as well and still getting it. Hope its a software issue and not a hardware one.
I haven't encountered ghost touch but encountered slow responding touch issue. Sometimes the touchscreen will respond to my command slower like 3-4 secs after i touch the screen. Every time this issue appears, a restart of my phone will clear it. Very likely software issue. I'm still on nougat, hopefully they fix it on Oreo before it goes out of beta.
My first PH-1 would become touch unresponsive for 30+ seconds all the time (it was fully updated at the time). It seemed to happen more frequently when I was typing on the stock keyboard. I eventually returned it and bought another several weeks later. I've had no issues with the new one-quite happy with it. I'm running the Beta2 update and enjoying it.

That's good to know. Mine also happened when using the keyboard occasionally as well. I have a replacement set coming as my original set's packaging did not come with the pull tab on the box and there was a fingerprint smudge at the back of the phone when i took the phone out of the box the first time. I presumed mine was a used/returned set, not new as what i had ordered. Hope the new set fixes the issue.
My phone has the same issue whenever I'm charging it and using it at the same time it's registering multiple touches when I'm using just one finger on the screen, it mostly happen when I'm doing a long press action. In developers option I have show taps enable so I'm able to see all ghost touches.
I fixed my ghost touch issue with a simple hard reset.
It will come back sadly
