I have a surround and lately its misbehaving.
The screen goes off within a second or two if I do not continue touching it. Sometimes it doesn't even stay for a second and goes off immediately. When the screen goes off, I notice the red battery light blinking. Sometimes its just in a reboot boot loop. If i am successful and able to reach videos and start a video, then the video plays fine.
Until the video is playing, the screen doesn't go off. I have tried a hard reset but it didn't help. I am on mango.
What might be the problem?

Today I started having a weird issue with my screen. When I open up some apps, the screen stops responding after 10 seconds or so for a few seconds, then works for a few seconds, then stops again, an endless loop. It starts working again for a longer while when I lock and unlock the phone
I think it starts in the middle of the screen, coz if I scroll down in an app, it staggers when my finger is in the middle of the screen.
.
I factory reset the phone and installed a different kernel but the problem persists.
I also noticed that the same thing happens in recovery, which worries me.
Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
Do you have touch control?
If yes, it's a known issue.
It can also be the case of defective unit.
So I was watching a YouTube video on my phone yesterday when all of a sudden the screen went off? The screen never goes off when streaming a video so I pushed the power button and got nothing, tried again and again...still nothing. Pressed down the power button for about 15 seconds and the phone restarts, upon getting to my lock screen the time and date where set as 0100 on the 02/05/1970???
I had to factory reset just to make sure the problem was removed. Just wondering has any one else seen or had this issue?

Did you UV in the Kernel?
Also try installing a video player and watching through it, sometimes the build-in one sucks.
Phone is totally stock, no uv or root. Was watching the video via the YouTube app, not the stock video player...
Hey guys,
i have a serious problem, which happens really often lately. like 10 times a day. The screen just turns off sometimes. The touch-functionality is still working. I can feel the fingersensor "unlock" the Zuk Z1, but the screen just stays off. Then i try to press all the buttons and sometimes the screen turns on again. But sometimes it just turns on after some seconds even though I didn't touch it at all.
First I thought that this is a hardware issue, maybe a loose contact. But recently a new problem showed up. The screen brightness just goes up to 100%. I turned off auto-brightness and move the slider. Nothing happens. Restarting always fixes it. But mostly after 1-60 seconds it goes back to normal.
Any ideas what might be the problem? Or what I could try?
I haven't rooted the phone and its the newest CyOS version.
Cheers, Oliver
Perhaps you are using the flipcover with magnetic auto switch off when you close the case?

Thanks for the reply,
I havent thought of that before but it is not the cause of the problem.
1. I have a leather case
2. When I take the phone out of the case the displays stays dark
I just did a factory reset today in the morning and the problem already showed up again. So! annoying!!!! Will send back the device I guess
i have lenovo zuk z1 . actually i am getting a problem in this phone . after locking the phone at every seconds light turn on and get turn off on the display. i saw so much on the setting but i didnt get any setting .
The same problem is being arrising with me..please someone help. what should i do..
Basically my S7 Edge has been having an issue, every time after I use the lock or power button I cant turn it back on after. The blue Light LED is visible, occasionally (I'm assuming just emails or texts) and if I use the power button while the phone is on the bottom half of the screen just flickers for a second a white flash. If I try to force reboot it, it occasionally works but other times it 'dims out' the screen and I cant really see the Samsung logo followed by my career logo (OPTUS). It randomly works when I leave it for a while or I try to spam force restart. It doesn't seem like a hardware Issue because it happened randomly maybe a month or so after I got a decent crack on it.
I have wipe cache in the partition haven't reset it yet though.
I made a video because I know I'm describing it pretty bad hopefully you'll watch it.. (watch till end for the white flashes)
please enter the dot because I cant post links

So, whenever my battery gets bellow 14% my galaxy starts to have a weird problem.
My screen basically turns off whenever I open some apps or watch a full screen video on twitter (not every single video makes the screen turn off, only some of them)
When this happens I can lock and unlock the phone and the screen will start to work again, but as I said, whenever I open a video or a app the screen turns off.
I don't know what is happening and I can't find answers to this problem, I've seen online that some people are having the same problem as me but no one had answers for why this happens.
My s8 is the SM-G950W
If your screen turn on when you press power button then there might be some issue with your software.
Do a factory reset.

As the battery level gets lower, the problem gets more apparent, here's a video.

I'll try to do a factory reset to see if it fix the problem.
