Screen keeps on turning itself on/off on stand-by - Atrix 4G General

I have had this problem with successive rom's (all cm7 based)
recently I wiped EVERYTHING and clean installed CM7 weekly 6 and for a few days it was all good, then the problem started again?
Tried to wipe cache ect (anything but a clean install) but still the same issue (PHONE WILL BE ON STAND-BY AND THE SCREEN WILL JUST TURN ITSELF ON/OFF ON ITS OWN??)
I haven't done a reinstall over weekly 6 because I am thinking the problem will just keep on coming back'
is there anything I can do? anything I need to show that will pinpoint the problem?
thanks in advance.

I would try a blur ROM first to make sure it isn't your phone. Then you can start thinking about hardware issues on the phone.

Very weird, but I noticed a similar problem the last few days. While at work, my phone goes into airplane mode(no reception in the building). When I was on CM7 neutrino, I had an instance where the phone drained the battery completely.
Recently I switched to cm9 Turl v8, and at work I pulled my phone out...the screen was on, Bluetooth was on and my battery had went from ~85% to ~20% mind you, I hadn't turned Bluetooth on.
A few days later I noticed I pulled my phone out and the screen was on...showed the screen and phone had been awake for a few hours....while in my pocket.

thanks for the replies
I got lucky i guess? I decided to start deleting recent apps/themes and the first few I deleted (themes for GOsms) stopped the screen turning on ect, no idea why but hey ho at least it stopped the fault.

Do not restore any thing after a fresh install of cm7 (complete wipe and clean before installation) and ull sure face no problems, i also had these problems not any more.

[Q] Black screen after CM RC2 install

The other day I installed the new CM RC2 rom on my HTC Wildfire. Everything went fine for the couple of days until it went into sleep mode and I could not come out of it. I had to pop the battery and when still problems, I re-installed rom - again with flashed kernal 4.1 and up to date gapps.
Managed to get it working. But then same thing again. Overall I had to re-install 5 times yesterday alone!
Out of frustration I tried to re-install my CM RC1 from before with the kernal 4.1. And this was fine again for about an hour, then again, mobile went into sleep mode, and again was left with black screen. Again not able to come out of it.
Am at a loss as to how to get my mobile back up and running. If anybody can help, this would be most appreciated.
Thanks
Does this happen with all ROM's, or simply CM7? Also, what are your overclock values and SetCPU Profiles, if any?
Have only tried cm7 so far. and cpu was not touched. was left at default settings. Am not able now to even boot into recovery. Totally DEAD!
Probably a hardware issue. I doubt CM7 can have such far reaching implications as to make the phone dead. Anyhow, this issue looks uncannily similar to this
Thats worrying.
If I do manage some how to get it switched on, is there anything that you can suggest to stop this happening again?
Also keeping the battery out of the mobile for a 5 mins, SHOULD that help instead of just taking out and imediatley replacing?
Doesnt sound too good. If you manage to switch it on you could try setting your minimum cpu speed to 245mhz+ Although it sounds like you have more serious issues. If its still under warranty I would consider returning it
Thats what I feared.
Thing is, cause it is rooted, it is out of warranty. I dont think I have a leg to stand on.
Its worth a try, they may not even check/notice that its rooted
Well.......
I managed to get it switched on. And decided to try and install Wildpuzzle as I had that on the phone before with no problems. And so all was well......
....untill just now.
Mobile went into sleep mode, and when I pressed the power button to get into it, black screen. Wouldnt come out of sleep mode. So had to pop battery again and after 10 mins, re booted it.
This seems to be the norm now. If it gets a chance to drop off into sleep mode, then I am stuck.
I am starting to pull my hair out.
Have just read on another thread that should try turning off auto rotation and auto brightness.
Fingers crossed this will work.
If the problem occurs throughout various ROMs it could well be hardware related. Flash an RUU (this will get rid of all traces of root) and return it
Will do.
Thanks
cant access cm7 rc2
any ideas why i cannot access or see any file in the website download.cyanogenmod.com regarding cm7 rc2 for buzz/wildfire?

Freezing on Lock Screen

I just bought a used HD2 1024 in perfect condition which already had android installed.
As told by previous owner, and also experienced by me, I am having freezing issues at the lock screen when waking up the phone from the sleep state. When phone turns on, I try to slide the bar down to unlock and go to the home screen, but it seems frozen and doesn't respond to touch. I have turn off the display and try again numerous times to make it work, or reboot it to make it work. This doesn't happen all the time, but does happen regularly.
In the CW menu, I tried doing factory reset, wiping cache, wiping dilvik cache, and tried installing multiple ROMs, but still no luck.

not necessarily is that the issue, dependant on the rom being used it could just be the wakeup delay that was an issue in early rom builds
The freezing or touch problem only occurs during wake/lock screen. It works perfect fine during regular use. Is it still a hardware problem that could be causing this?

might be worth trying a different rom and seeing if it is still there
Hope that is just a temporary thing, otherwise you may have to pay HTC to fix it.
I had the same issue before. But after i change to "MccMBoxmaX GS V6.5 Gingerbread 2.3.3 [Sense 2.1+3.0] 3D Effect", this problem almost didn't happen at all. Maybe you can give it a try..

[Q] no radio\no wifi working...

story so far:
never locked milestone 2 with 2.2.2, flashed by mistake with cm7 droid 2 update, successfully reverted to 2.2.2 with sbf then flashed with miui 2.5.25 but due to few force closes of launcher i decided to try cm7
all went ok and it was working perfect, but after 4-5 hours of configuring, i restarted it few times to check if all settings are kept intact, after one of the restarts all radio was gone, i had plane symbol on taskbar, but no way to turn airplane mode off, tried to restart it couple times, batery removed etc. but nothing helped
wiped it clean & flashed again with 2.2.2 sbf, then updated it to cm7 again,it was working fine in the evening, i left it on overnight, but there was no radio at all in the morning
so i took battery away for 15 minutes, restarted, and there is gsm\3g working ok, but no wifi at all
tried few reboots, took off battery, nothing changes
tried milestone 2 toolbox basebands 2.2 & 2.2.2 - nothing changes
then i tried wiping cache & user data from build in recovery (x+power on, @), that did the trick for now, as i have both gsm, wifi & gps back
any advices how to stop it from happening or at least track where the problem is?
full wipe helped, it seems ok now, working fine for 24 hours now
(next time i try just to delete remembered networks as someone suggested)
only thing that i have problems with is force close of com.bel.android.dspmanager within minutes\seconds from reboot (i guess it happens anytime when audio is switching (from media player to call etc.)) but i can live with that...
EDIT:
it just happened again, all radio gone after reboot, i restored with nandroid backup made this morning and it is working again...
i try to backup it first if it happen again so i could compare it and find what is going on...
ANOTHER EDIT:
36 hours later battery dropped to 0% (i did that intentionally - really heavy use) phone switched off, so i connected charger, turned it on and guess what - all radio gone again
this time removing battery for 30 seconds worked and it started without any problems...
i probably should shut up and start a blog, but im really curious why does that happen and why sometimes removing battery is enough and sometimes i have to restore nandroid backup...
last edit:
flashed stock 2.3.6, had to tweak voltage a bit but it is rock stable now, no complaints except for i being really slow (flash - youtube etc.) kinda like my old n900

[q] Phone shuts down and reset

Hello lads! The last few days I have been trying to fix a huge problem with my Galaxy S4 i9505. I had been using the Google 4.4 rom for almost a month without any problem. One day, when my phone was low on battery it shutted down and I plugged it in my charger to power it on again. When it turned on I was prompted to the screen you see when you use the 4.4 rom for the first time. I had all my apps but everything was resetted. Every setting, all the app data, messages, etc. I thought this was a one time thing so I used about an hour to get everything back to normal again. Then the next day, same happened again. Phone turned off because of low battery, and everything was reset. I tried to google it but with no luck, so I did a factory reset and flashed the newest Google rom (4.4.2) with a new kernel called Ktoonsez. Got everything back to normal again and used my phone for a couple of hours before it just suddenly shutted down once again, but this time with almost full battery. When i tried to turn it on I was stuck on the Google loading animation and had to reflash 4.4.2. It turned back on and this time I decided to let the phone stay stock to see if any of my problems was caused of my apps or settings. It lasted for 2-3 days before the same thing happened again... I tried to flash different modems, other roms and firmwares but nothing have helped so far. I am also prompted with a message each time I turn the phone on which tells me that com.android.phone has stopped working. I have tried several factory resets, wiped dalvik, wiped cache, but still has the same problem... I have now given up trying and wonder if anyone of you know what I can do to fix the problem? Any tip is much appreciated and I hope to hear from you! Thanks!

Freezes overnight with my I9505 Galaxy S4

Hi Guys,
i got freezes when i charge it overnight (its connected to the original charger the whole night). I only can do a hard reset to use my device again because the touch-screen doesnt work then. This is very annoying because i use my device with Alarm to get up in the morning.
I already did a few clean installs (Cyanogenod Snapshots and Danvdh's Google Edition), wiped all caches and formated all data and caches aswell. I still got freezes. I get them from waking up my device (mostly in the morning between 5-6 am). All i see is a exclamation mark when i turn on the display. Then its frozen and i cant anything.
I already tried a few Modems and Kernels to test, but still freezes...
I use Modem I9505XXUGNK4 atm.
Any ideas ??? I really Need help with this !!!
Thanks

Have you tried the new 5.0 gpe from danvh? There was an issue with the charging animation and reboots.
yes, i got Dan's 5.0 gpe at the moment 12.17.2014
Dumb question, did you clear /system in between flashes as well?
Yes, i formated System and Cache + i wiped everything too
You should flash the latest stock firmware and see if the issue persists. If yes, try a different charger. If the problem still persists, I think it's a hardware problem. Probably battery or motherboard.
The Problem is only between 5-6 am. The whole day i got no Problems Should be a Problem with my Router maybe ?
i got no resets in my Settings there. maybe my Provider is doing a reset every day between 5-6 am and my device freezes then. i could try airplane mode too to test, right ?
I bought a new charger and battery today (both original). Maybe thats the problem.
i got News guys, i turned off wifi overnight an didnt plugged the charger to my device this night. No freeze !!! Yay !!!
So it only could be, charger, battery or Wifi, right ?
ok, i had a freeze at work a while ago. but i got no wifi or charger there... now i dont know what to do
Does it behave like this?:
You pick up the phone (it is in deepsleep),try to turn the screen on,it goes on,you try to unlock the screen and it just stops reacting to anything and turns the screen off after 20-30seconds?

i had the same problem,the only way to get rid of it is to send it in/get the motherboard replaced.this is faulty hardware,not a software problem
Damn, but i already got know activated. i dont get one for free Its about 1 and a half year old. The problem was solved a few snapshots form cm earlier and its only between 5-6 am. do you think its really a mainboard problem ?

how was your battery-lifetime with that build?
can`t help you with that,hope you have luck and fix it
Same problem
Hy people, i have the same problem, but is not a specific hour when it freez, yesterday i picked up the phone and when i unlocked the screen, it freezed, but i don.t wait 30sec, i just lock/unlock it again and it work fine. The other problem was overheating..
and randomly restarting but i think i fixed it with a factory reset. What i want to tell now is that i installed "Root booster" before all these problemsc ocured. After it played with the kernel, do you all thing it might not restored the original settings? My phone is randomly heating sice i installed that **** on it...(even if i do factory reset)
Ps: i have a stock kernel/gt_505
Or the battery is guilty? It's draing pretty fast, after a day of use i put it to charge
(Solved)

Hy, i haved the same problem, but what i did yesterday solved that. I hope this steps will help you:
1. Enter in Recovery Mode and select wipe data/factory reset
2. Clear cache partition
3. Go in Settings/More/App Manager and search for Touchwiz Home
4. Force stop then Clear data
5. Withouth exit from settings, restart your phone
6. When phone is on, screen will be black and will ask you witch program you wanna use, select Touchwiz home then press "always"
After this steps, i solved the problem for my phone, but another thing i done after that is delete all knox files with Titanium backup.
I hope this steps myght help you.
Thanks guys, but i got a nexus 5 now. Bye Samsung. Thanks anyway for help.
