Hey all,
I have my phone set at pattern unlock, the automatic lock on power button disabled and a 2 minute delay for an idle lock.
Most (but not all) of the times when I press the home button after I put it to sleep using the power button (but before the 2 minute idle time) the screen lights up, my last application is visible for a second and the it pops to the "Latest Applications" screen.
It's driving me crazy...
I've had 3 stock roms on my galaxy s4 and two kernels, currently running the adam 1.2 and the latest indonesia rom, and I've had this issue on all of them.
Does anybody else have this issue? Do you know how to solve it?

Hi all,
I'm using Energy ROM with Cookie Home Tab, currently this one: Energy.BLACKSTONE.21916.Sense2.5.Cookie.Classic.DinikGlass.Oct.08. I have tried several versions, but lock screen behavior is still the same...
When I put my device into standby mode, it goes locked automatically, that's what I want. But when I turn it on I want the unlock button to respond promptly, without any delay. It is working correctly after flashing my device, but after first restart I'm not able to use unlock button immediately and I need to wait a little bit (1 or 2 seconds) and then slide the button to unlock the device.
Has anybody discovered the same behavior? How to fix this and use unlock button immediately after the display goes on?
Thanks,
Vladino
Edit: I'm sorry, I just woke up and missed the thread where it is solved: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587931
Hi guys.
Today I just updated my HTC HD2.
But when I reboot the phone, and press the red phone button, the phone freez and I can't do enything. But when i doesn't press the red phone button, it doesn't freeze.
What can this be?
What it can be is a real pain. My HD2 freezes whenever it goes into lock mode. Either by pressing the red button, or when it self locks.
I have found that I disable "Turn off if device is not used for . . ." setting in the Settings, sound & display, Backlight menu, I don't have a problem as long as I do not lock the screen by any method.
This is an issue that has gotten progressively worse over the last 2 months. To the point where it is very difficult to unlock. Many attempts and much time.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
Thanks

From my experience it is a matter of time for your touchscreen to die (sorry for bad news)!
Replacing it would be the right solution!
Good luck!
Hi there,
Many of you know that nexus 4 is experiencing random "black screen of death". What happens is that the phone freezes while in sleep (stand-by) for long time, for example over night. It is not a complete freeze, as the notification light keep blinking (if there are notifications); when you call the phone the caller hears a proper "ringing" tone (so the phone is not off), but the nexus 4 itself doesn't make any sounds. Alarms also don't sound, which makes Nexus 4 a horribly unreliable alarm clock.
The only way out of the freeze is holding the on/off button for 10 sec, which turns off the phone, and then holding it again for usual 1-2 sec to turn the phone back on.
What I discovered is that these freezes happen 1-3 times a week, but only if I have pattern password on lock screen. When I turn password off (so I have the "slide to unlock"), freezes are gone. Maybe this information will help others, or provide some insight to a complete solution to the problem? Does anybody have other experiences with black screen of death on their nexus 4?
Just a note, I have stock but rooted nexus 4. Internet reports that these problems happen on stock unrooted, stock rooted, custom roms, even on phones freshly out of factory reset with no apps installed.
Here are some threads talking about the problem:
Google Product forum
AndroidCentral Forums
I've always been on SlideToUnlock and mine has been doing that for some time since I started playing with custom roms (w/root)
What fixed it for me was to disable the PlayStore "Auto Update Apps".
Hi there. I'm currently having an issue with my S7 edge where the lock screen won't turn off after some time. The screen does turn off when I'm using the phone normally from the main screen after some time passes but it's just the lock screen I have issues with.
Whenever I charge my phone or just hit the power button once to see notifications on the lock screen, it'll just stay like that until the same time the main screen timeout configured time passes (5 minutes) and this is getting annoying and somewhat draining a little bit more of my battery. Previously it was working fine and the lock screen would turn off after around 10 seconds or so.
Has anyone faced any similar issues with their phones? I haven't tried a factory reset yet but I'd want that to be a last resort.
Clear Background apps.
It happens when you left some games or apps by pressing home button but it keeps running. Hope they will fix this soon.
Have you tried pressing that little button on the right side of the phone? That usually helps.
Yeah...I already tried that with no luck. Even tried uninstalling some recent apps in case one of them was cause but it didn't work either. Any other suggestions?
The issue isn't with turning the phone screen off by pressing the power button, it's the lock screen itself not turning off after a few seconds when it usually does.
I'm having the same problem, had good lock installed thought that may have been the problem but after uninstalling that I'm still having the same problem with samsungs oem lock screen. I too would like an answer or fix for this. also to note, in developer options the stay awake is off and no apps running in the background.
I am having this problem now also. The screen will lock, but the display stays on but dimmed. I can tap the screen and it will get bright. Now I must click the side button every time I set my phone down or the screen will drain the battery.
I'm facing exactly the same issue. When the screen is locked, it stays on for the same time confirmed to when its unlocked. For example, 1 minute, instead of 10-15 seconds.
Any workaround discovered for this?
Did anyone find a solution to this problem?
I thought that I might've been the only one! This problem only appeared on my phone after the Nougat update, and it's extremely annoying as I rely on notifications waking the screen for my main messaging app.

Hello, I am having the same issue in my Redmi note 11 pro plus Phone. In my case The screen will lock but display stays on with dimmed light. Usually it is not visible during day, but in dark room its visible. And it stays the same way whole night. And battery is fully drained and phone is turned off. Is there a solution for this??
Hello guys.
I am experiencing two strange situations on my galaxy s7 edge.
First, whenever I unlock it to the home screen both buttons ( back and multitask) keeps on flickering/flashing randomly. They just turn themselves on and off all the time.
The only thing I manage to do was disabling them (with an app) , so they woundn't turn on at all.
Second problem, I can't seem to put the automatic lock screen mode, meaning that if I don't press the lock button on the side, the screen just stays on no matter if it´s on the home screen or some open up app.
I wonder if any of you had ever seen something like this before. It´s not a massive issue, but it has been bothering me a lot. =/
Thanx
