Hi I am running CM7 and sometimes after I wake the device up the screen simply does not respond to my touches. The device is not frozen the home keys and all will work and you can use the volume keys, but since you can't click on the power menu if you bring it up, you have to do a hard reboot. It does this fairly often but not every time. Any ideas?
That is the sleep of death issue. turning off wifi before or using a wifi management program will help. Also, the latest CM7 has the problem slightly less. Check it out.

I went to check something on my galaxy s but it wasn't responding. I tried holding the power button and tried to get it into recovery and download mode but nothing happened.
I then removed the battery and put it back in and it turned on as normal.

Known sleep-to-death problem. It happens on all ROMs I have tried on my phone. Happens more after a phone call. I was recently on holydays on another country and turned phone off, to use the SGS as a GPS navigation device only and I could suspend and resume it and use the GPS all day and it does not hang.
Just make a call, let it go to sleep and it may not wake up when you press the home or power button.
You don't have to remove the battery, just press the power button 10 seconds, phone will reboot.
I didn't make a call though. I was just on facebook then went back to the homescreen and locked my phone using lock screen widget which I have been using for months without a problem. A minute later I went to unlock it and it wouldn't respond. I tried holding the power button for atleast 8 seconds n nothing.

Pile of ****. Does NOT happen on all roms. It may happen on all roms you flash. More likely a problem with your phone, or user error.
Post the roms and your route to flashing, and then we will be able to advise.

Anyone having an unresponsive (to touch) screen when the a500 wakes up?
I thought it was just me or the rom i had or some app doing it but a coworker just got his a500, hasnt installed anything really and is not rooted.
I can sometimes push the sleep/power button a few times and it will come to life but not always.
I think twice i have had to use the hard reset button.
Almost seems as if the screen is not responding to touch when you wake it up and it has to rotate the screen to the orientation you are holding it, but that is 100% speculation and i only say that because the l9ckscreen is unresponsive

Once in a while. Usually only when the device has been asleep for a long time. Not sure how to prevent this issue - i usually find hitting the power button a few times clears it up, but I have been forced to reboot from the issue once in a while.
Is there a way to disable the hardware keys apart from the volume keys on the side when the phone is locked? There are some times that i find the screen on when i get it out of my pocket. Plus i turn the screen on by pressing the volume keys in order to use the physical keyboard less.
Currently I'm using the latest Hyperdroid Rom(stock 2.3.4 room. With CM7) and Widgetlock

Unfortunately, you cannot do that as this is the way Android is designed. Its standard to all android phones due to the framework itself. The only thing you might be able to do with apps like 'Widget Locker' is to restrict the the hardware buttons that can wake the phone up. This can be done by turning off 'Easy Wake Mode' in Widget Locker. For example, instead of any hardware button, you can ensure only the power button wakes the device up. You can also set the lockscreen timeout to maybe 5 secs in CM settings, so that even if the device is accidentally woken up in your pocket,it will return to standby after 5 secs. Hope this helps. But i have to say that you have a very good suggestion. It would be really great if Android, CM or any app has this feature. Maybe you might want to suggest this to the CM team?. Im sure they have the means to do it.
Today im having a strange problem. when I normally tap down the power button while the tablet is off, it always powered on. Today I have to hold the power button down for 10 seconds in order to power it up Anyone else having this problem?

Yea...started happening to me a few days ago. Try totally disabling the lock screen, and see if it stops. If it does, you can enable it again. Are you using the regular slider lock screen? That's what I was using when it happened. I used face unlock for almost 2 days, and it never happened. I'm not running any lock screen now that I'm home, and its fine. Its just weird that it randomly started happening...I've never used a third party lock screen or even messed with the default settings for it to happen.
Yeah im using the stock lock sliders. I'll play with the lock sliders tonight when I get home and see how that goes.

I'm using the latest nightly build of Omni, and it works perfectly, when Active Display is turned off. It's a great feature, but whenever I use it, and my screen turns on due to it, the soft buttons disappear completely from the screen and won't come back before I hold the power button.
Is this a known issue?
I have the same issue. I tried immersive mode and seemed to be better. However softkeys go missing at times. Fix is to bring up the power menu like you stated.
