my trophy is acting strange.. when i lock the screen it turns on itself about 1-2 mins after i locked it, and it runs like a welcoming introduction to the phone like a video that shows the features of the phone and i just tap the screen and goes away but goes straight to the home screen as if i unlocked it normally and dont know how to make it no to do that.. and it just uses battery life.. please help!!!!

Anybody know if there's a way of keeping my Trinity in standby even when a text message comes through - I keep the thing in my pocket and if I don't look at it straight away after a text has come through, all kind of things happen - programs get launched, photos get taken, voice memos are created, just from it moving around in my pocket after un-standbying itself!??
Thanks
Lock the screen and when a text comes no programs will launch!
Nope...
Doesn't work...as soon as a text comes through, everything unlocks - is there anyway to stop this from automatically happening?
Thanks
flight mode

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Not so on mine when it is locked it stayes locked! The screen will come on but the machine stays locked.
What mine is doing is when a text comes through, it seems to be causing the device to unlock, because the screen will take touch commands - I need to be able to lock the screen and get it to stay locked even when a text comes through. Any experts out there who might know how to achieve this?
Thanks
What is flight mode anyway?
OK, let me put this another way - is it possible to lock the screen until you press the standby button, so that nothing else unlocks it such as a text message or phonecall?
Thanks
I don't have this problem. My screen is set to go off after 1 minute. When the phone is in standby, all I get is a tone and the orange light flashes. The screen will not come on, unless I press the power button.
No input is accepted when in standby by the screen or any button except the power button - check your settings
I also have it set to auto-lock after 2 hours, so even if I get a text, and turn the screen on, then i need to put the password in before the screen unlocks
i use my m700 the same as you with no problems
RESOLVED!
Managed to put the device lock option on the 'Today' screen and this keeps the whole device locked (screen & all) no matter what happens, until you press the unlock option on the screen. Hooray!
This is driving me nuts! I can finish a phone call, put my phone down on my desk, then look over 5 minutes later and the screen is STILL on. I have to hit the power button to make it sleep, it will go black, then flash the lock screen and then follow the 15 second screen mode I have set and go black then. what gives? Its not rooted, i dont have a lot of crazy apps on it. Anyone know what causes this?
So I managed to drop my phone a couple of weeks ago and crack the screen. The screen itself has remained fully functional despite a couple of purple lines down it and progressively worse flickering. It;s gradually started becoming more unresponsive and tonight it seems to have had enough. The stay on screen still display the time and if I press the lock key it will show me my lock screen and my notifications, I can swipe and remove these and if drag them down to read them further.
However, when I actually unlock my phone to go to my home screen, the phone screen goes black - I know the phone has unlocked because I can hear the sound effects when I press apps but everything remains black and I can't get the screen to come alive again until I lock the phone. If I double tap the home button, it will quick launch my camera and that works. So essentially the screen still works but won't show me my home screen or any apps (apart from camera), it's essentially blacked out until I lock it again.
I'm getting it repaired but am not able to do so for a few days. Any ideas how I can bring the screen back to life when I unlock the phone? I tried restarting a few times, leaving it turned off for a while and emergency mode - none of which worked.
Yo,
yesterday I dropped my GS7E, it wasn't much of a high but the ground was pretty hard. My hardglass screen protector shattered a little but not really much, just the bottom corners of the screen protector got hurt.
Since then, my phone is not waking the screen up the first time I press the power button to unlock the phone. It its waking up but the screen stays black, I can unlock it by fingerprint while the screen is black and even take photos or open any app. I also feel the vibration.
So to fix it and actually get into the phone with screen on I have to lock and unlock it again. If I lock the phone after using it normally, it would work the normal way after unlocking it right again. But if I waited some time and I try unlocking, the screen would just stay black for the first attempt of unlocking.
Isnt that weird? xD
Just wanted to share that and maybe someone even got a permanent fix for that
What happens if you turn it on with the home button instead of the power button?
It wakes up the screen like it would normally do, but the first time I presss it, the screen stays black and I have to lock it again and then I can wake up the screen with home button.
Forgot to mention that.
Probably no solution to that I guess?
If I were u I reflash the firmware. Dont know if that fix it but i would give a try, u got nothing to loose
Hello!
I am new to this forum but I havent found an answer anywhere on the internet. I have a Samsung Galaxy S8 plus with a small crack in the screen in the corner(I dont think its relevant). I have had this phone for almost 2 months.
My problem is: If the phone is locked and I press either the home or lock button, the phone vibrates and it works but the screen will still remain black(lock screen will not be displayed). I know the phone works even when the screen is not working because if I swipe on the black screen, the iris scanner will turn on. I can get it to work but only if I try turning on and off the phone a lot of times until the screen finally turns on. After the screen turns on, I dont have any problems with it(just there are a few lines on the screen from the crack).
Any suggestion might help,
Thanks a lot
well its obviously broken, send it in for repair and pay up bi... man.
