I have developed a small lockscreen problem. I can't get the lock screen to come up anymore. When i go into standby through time out of pressing power the screen just goes black and doesn't kick into the lockscreen anymore.
I'm sure its a software error and a re-image would fix it but i'd like to fix this without having to do this.
I'm using mdj gingerbread cyanogenmod 7 v2.3 NAND. The rom itself works perfectly and i've had no problems until now.
I have noticed that the fade out screen that is on this rom doesn't happen any longer. When i press power the screen just goes black. then i press it again no matter the wait the screen just comes straight back on where i left it
Checked through cyanogenmod settings and the lockscreen is set to instant after standby and time out but still nothing.
help i've been calling and e-mailing the world from my pocket!
I don't know what your problem is but I am willing to bet that the issue has been caused by an app that you have downloaded and is now conflicting with the lockscreen. Have you downloaded and lockscreen replacements (eg Widget Locker), or maybe a screen off app (eg Screen Off)?
Either way, perform a restore and you'll be fine.
You did backup your system didn't you?!
Its not from a lock screen app but from a general app just not sure which one. Removed my last few installed apps but its no different. Everything is backed up I'd just rather try and fix the problem and wait to reimage when 2.3 with sense comes out. There has to be a way

I have the same problem. it happend the first time yesterday on Typhoon CM7 2.2 build. so I figured that it must have been an error in that build, so I updated to Typhoon CM7 2.3.3 today, and it was fine until for 10 minutes ago, but now it's back, I tried calling my phone from another phone, but nothing came up other than the backlight, there's still sound and vibration, but no display picture. :S
Lol Ive fixed this now there is an option in battery indicator pro that disables the lock screen. I accidently disabled the lock screen
Please close the thread

Hello I have two big problems with my phone:
When I use the phone sometimes it freezes, the screen timeout triggers and the phone screen turns off. I cant turn it on again, I must reboot. Sometimes the startup animation shows up, and the phone restarts by itself
The other problem is, sometimes android os is draining my battery like crazy (1 h of cpu.activity) even on flight mode.
Im using stock.firmware 2.3.3 dbt, the latest for germany.
Any solution or.firmware to solve my problems?

Try out any good rom, there are plenty. Make sure you get what you want at least.
Hi guys,
Anyone encountered your Note 3 hanged and you unable to swipe or press the back button.
The only way to swipe again is to press off and on and you be able to do that.
My phone is brand new and even after I factory reset it still hanged.
Same Hangups with me
The same happens to me with an unchanged Note 3 9005, Vodafone Germany branded; Suddenly the especially the screen freezes.
some buttons still work. Sometimes it works again, sometimes only a reboote works.

And i thought it was a launcher that causing this. Seems like I'm not the only one.
Note 3 hanged
I use the Nova Launcher ...
Anyone facing the same issue?
anyone? no one having this issue?
My T-Mobile Note 3 did it once, so far.
NOT rooted, stock launcher and browser.

Yes, same problem here with a completely stock and non-rooted international (Germany) Note 3. I have had the device now for a little over a week, and the problem occurs quite frequently several times a day. Very annoying, so any fix would be VERY appreciated!
German Unbranded LTE... Apex Launcher, no such issue so far.
Try cleaning your system cache in Recovery.
I get the same problem.
No response to back, menu, home or power button.
If I wait about 10-20 seconds, it will start responding again.
It happens several times a day.
Very annoying. Never had this problem with the Note 2.
N900 in Thailand, not rooted using Nova launcher.

I tried this yesterday, but I'm afraid it didn't fix the problem. A couple of hours after cleaning the cache partition I got the next hang.
I gave up on this and decided to ask for a replacement phone. Bummer.

My non-rooted N9005 crashed several times as described below. However I can't replicate them on purpose. It just happened randomly.
On boot-up, when the lockscreen is shown, the device keeps restarting on its on, non-stop. To resolve, I'll need to quickly unlock the phone when the lockscreen is shown. Sometimes it would just keep restarting before the locksreen is shown. When this happens, I'll need to remove the SIM card and the phone would start normally. Then turn it off, reinsert the SIM card, boot-up and quickly unlock the lockscreen. This occurs randomly, but when it occurs, the would keep restarting. Else, phone would boot-up with no issue.
Recorded a video and stopped the recording. Camera hang. From then onwards, can't use camera until reboot.
Enabled the "one-handed operation - use for all screens". Switched to one-handed mode. Not sure what happened, but camera was started when I exit camera, screen is reverted to fullscreen. It should remain in "one-handed" mode. Touch responded to area where the "one-handed operation" window should be. No response to area outside this area. To resolve, re-enter "one-handed" mode and exit.
Phone just hang when games are started which the audio loop playing repeatingly.
My Note3 got hang when I was using facebook...
I m curious it related with RAM... when I check the RAM (after it responds again) it was 2,4 GB of 2,66 (max available)..
After I clear the Memory, then problem stops...
Same issue here..
i'll be scrolling facebook or browsing and i cannot click on links or scroll
weird thing is i can press the back button to close the app or the home button..
there are some other major glitches as well such as Gallery opening VERY SLOWLY.. quick pic is my work around..
waking up the phone with the power button takes longer then expected as well..
coming from a Z10 with less specs and listening to people bash it.. the 3GB quadcore Snapdragon 800 chip with 4.3 jelly bean is deeming to be disappointing..
don't get me wrong i love the device.. just didn't expect so many glithces and slow downs and hangups
Same issue on exynos.

I tried something new today, I've been clearing the Ram memory every 15-30 minutes of constant usage and every time I start using the phone and it seems that I haven't had that problem yet. Makes me think it is related to a process.

Hi all,
I've been using my international note 3 (European) for few weeks without issues.. then one day, the phone went crazy on me! Each time I press the home button it asks me if I want to use Touchwiz or Touchwiz easy mode! I choose Touchwiz and I click ALWAYS (not once) ... this will work for few minutes, then next time I press the home button, same prompt comes up!!
I formatted my phone, but the problem disappeared for few days only then started again!
Now what!!??
Thanks in advance
Mo
**** touchwize use Nova launcher

Try going to the settings on you phone, enabling easy mode, restart your phone with easy mode still turned on.
Once I has restarted turn easy mode off and restart again.
See if that works.

I rooted my phone a couple of days ago using cf auto root. I haven't flashed a custom recovery yet. I deleted 1 systen app which was the YouTube app so i could install a better version. Then my phone randomly did a quick reboot. It went to the spinning samsung logo and then to lockscreen. It took about 15-20 seconds. It skipped the samsung music that usually plays during boot and skipped the screen that says samsung galaxy s4 gt i9505. And, sometimes the home screen just freezes until i go to a different application (like settings) or holding the home button. Since i rooted, these random reboots hav happemed about 8 times. Today it happened about 2 or 3 times. I've noticed that is triggered when the screen is powering off when i press the power button or after a minute of inactivity when it automatically dims and then powers off. But it doesnt happen like this everytime. However, one of them happened was while i was talking to someone on the phone.
A couple lf people have said that installing the latest firmware on my phone will help. But isn't there any othet way to fix it?
Why is this happening? What is causing this? Will this problem go if i unroot?
