Hi guys!
So i got my Slate already for a long time and since the first time i installed Windows 8 (was the dev preview back then) i had this stupid bug that the Home button stops working the first time it goes idle for a longer time ( 1 h).
If you want that the button works again then you have to restart this.
I always hoped that the next release will finally ****ing fix this but no... no luck.
Could you guys help me?

Hi guys,
I've been using my Optimus 7 for barely a week now and I ran into this very annoying issue I've just discovered yesterday.
Every time i turn off the screen, it would turn itself back on(showing the lock screen), few seconds later the screen goes off, and then on again. It doesn't happen to me when I am using the phone, so it can't be the power button's fault. Restarting the phone does not help either.
My phone is unlocked with Chevron 7.
Anyone have any solutions?
Thanks in advance.
Having the same problem after 3 years of none. I have not downloaded anything in that 3 years as well as this is just used as a phone ( data is too expensive in rural Canada ). This only happens when the phone is not being used, when charging no problems, only when on battery does it do this, I guess no answer is coming if the original author had no answers for opver 4 years but any suggestions would be great.
Thanks all.
I got my A7 and flashed the 4/17 rom right away, used it stock for a couple of days then installed dexters mod1.42 and for a day or two it worked fine. Then the menu key stopped working. sometimes it would work for an hour and then stop working again. I deleted the dexter mod, wiped cache and did factory reset when the key worked and everything was fine.
Then I did the bestialbub a7-gapps zipmod and everything worked great for 4-5 days then the same problem, no menu key. are there any known apps that may cause this problem? I am waiting for the menu key to work again so I can try again, are there any settings or other mods that will get me the market but leave me close to stock.
steamtv support just had me do a reset and flash latest firmware and that doesnt help much.
Please, I love the A7 when it's working and need some help.
Thanks,
Billy
Does this happen when the back of the device is hotter than warmer? I've had this happen often when the days are warmer and hotter. That's the reason why because the heat affects parts of the wiring. The other solution is to use Button Savior (an app on the market).

The menu smart key comes and goes no matter the temp. It's not working now, sometimes it will work for a little while and then stop again. I can't wipe/reset without the memu key. I want to get it back to stock to see if it's a hardware problem then take it from there. Any suggestions anyone?

same here (I thought, I'm the only one encounter this kind of problem). My Aunt gave me A7 as present. after 2 days, all the smart keys malfunctioned. it works fine for 10 min after that it wont work anymore. I've installed button savior for remedy. I think ytain is right, A7 has problem when the back of the device becomes hot.
Hello,
I had the same issues with some of the keys of the keyboard. but at first it started only happening when the battery was low but recently it was happening all the time.
This was making my life difficult as i write some sms to my friends and it's quite annoying.
I left my phone untouched and went to repair center of my provider to show what was happening. Put my phone there for repair and in the same day went there to pick up the phone good as new.
The issue is that the stripes connecting from the keyboard to the cellphone were a bit fragile and probably broke or it wasn't making any contact whatsoever. Now i have the phone working 100%. no problem.
Hope this helps
Im using the miui-ndt development v34.0 by langthang.
everythign has been working flawlessly for a month until a few days ago when i noticed that my phone will not respond once i get to the lockscreen to access my phone again. In the beginning it would work after couple of times of me pressing on the end button to turn the screen off and on but now the problem has become more serious when i have to try almost a minute for the lockscreen to unlock.
the funny thing is once i get the lockscreen to respond and unlock the phone works flawlessly. soon as i press the power/end button again and put it in my pocket and take it back out to use my phone, the phone fail to unlock the lockscreen. I know that the process of the phone is working because i can see the time chance and battery percentage and reception work. can anyone shine light to this situation?
Anyone ?

ive not used a MIUI rom but disabling Compatibility Mode in Spare Parts has helped myself and others with very similar/exact problem.
good luck
Hi to all,
I'm italian person. I'm writing to this forum because I have a problem.
It is the third time in twenty days I bought the tablet Galaxy tab 2 10.1 P5100 that while I am doing things, the tablet freezes, no button no longer works and I just have to restart by holding down the power button for 7 seconds.
The first two times it happened while I was reading on Wattpad app. The third time it happened while I was on the browser (but I remember having opened just before Wattpad only a moment).
I have ICS 4.0.3.
Can anyone tell me what can I do?
You think it is a software problem?
Thanks .... I do not know what to do.
So my N4 is relatively new, I'm saying that because i bought it from a dude who said he used it for 4 days. So a first couple days the phone were great and i feel pleased, but just a few minutes ago when i was texting my friend the screen went black and vibrated for about 10 seconds. I panicked and didn't know what to do so i pressed the power button and let it restarted. Does any of you have this problem? Let me know if you know what's wrong too! Thank you!
Update: I just scan the phone with avast and it found a problem with Hardest Game Ever 2! Could it be the problem?

This is called wakelock. The 4.3 update for your phone caused this. The issue is known to happen when texting fast. The only thing you can do is hold down the power button until the phone restarts. It's not an issue with the game. Just wait for google to repair the issue or download a custon rom with the fix. For example Paranoid.
Avast detected it has adware...
I would advise you to do what Qs5 said.
