The phone keeps rebooting unless i shake it. Ive sbf'd it a few times, to no avail. Its like the problem is with the gravity sensor or something. anyone ever heard of this?
In your hands "Harlem Shake" phone.
Sorry.

Well I just replaced my arias digitizer, all works well besides making and receiving calls. My screen will turn black and be unresponsive, I can be heard by the other person but on my end my phone is unresponsive. I would have to take out the battery to get it to respond, which is ridiculous. This has been an issue for many people and I want to get to the bottom of it. All help is welcomed, thank you.
There is a tiny rubber cover for the proximity sensor that needs to be there for it to work properly. It is easy to lose when you replace the screen.

Currently I am messing with it and I've tried many things. Could you possibly describe it, much appreciated.

It is a little rubber thing, square on one side and round on the other, with a hole through it. It fits over the proximity sensor to focus it through the round window on the glass.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. Well apparently I must have put my earpiece in wrong too and I can't hear anything during a call. Many thanks if you can tell me how it goes in.

I resolved the speaker issue. now its just the damn sensor, i cant wake from calls :/. To be exact, what does the proximity sensor look like and which tiny window does it "see" through?
Right next to the speaker are two little sensors. The closest to the speaker is the proximity sensor and the other one is the light sensor. Above these on the glass are two round windows.

If you search around on here, someone posted a hack for disabling the proximity sensor. This will enable you to make calls, but you will obviously lose the sensor function.

I have seen that thread about disabling it, I'm trying to keep that as very last resort. Well does the sensor look like a tiny little chip?

Yes, it has a little circular 'eye' on it.

Thank you. I'll continue to mess with it. Btw, what do you know about the gingerbread development? Anything about the aria?

The Cyanogen people are working on it as we speak.

Has anyone gotten this problem? Sometimes, when I try to unlock my Nexus 7, it doesn't actually unlock and turns off the screen. This happens several times before it finally does unlock. (Sometimes you have to activate Google Now before it will unlock) I would like to report this to Google but I am unsure how to do that by email. Just wondering if anyone else had this problem too. Thanks!
Surely someone must have had this problem too.

Nope, are you on a custom ROM or kernel?

No, not even rooted. It seems to happen most frequently with third party apps.

Maybe it is a problem with the third party app? ...

I've noticed it especially with skpye, but it has happened with stock apps like chrome and gmail too.
EDIT: just had it happen with the Twitter app. It seems it goes to sleep earlier than it should when the unlocking problem happens.

I had the same issue. Let me guess...you have a folio case with the magnetic smart cover feature?

No problem here...
I also at times have problems with the unlock screen.
The lock screen at times is just in a frozen state.
To fix I press the power button to turn of the screen and hit it again to turn back on the screen.
The lock screen then functions as usual.
Note: This happens even when I have no apps open.
Well as it turns out, a lot of the folio cases with the sleep/wake function use magnets that are too powerful. When the case is folded all the way back, the magnet is activating the sleep function. I almost sent my tablet in for RMA but then I realized it was the case. If it happens again, just let the flap hang and you should be able to unlock your device hope I helped.

I do not have the smart case and I have a frozen lock screen issue.
LCD often has wake up lag.

I have a folio case. Never thought that could be the issue. I'll try letting it hang freely from now on. Could someone tell Google about this so they can release an update to fix it? (since people without the case are having the same issue)

I noticed this as soon as I got my Droid Pro. I think it's an overheating problem. I called my provider, they sent me a replacement phone, but same problem. After a few more calls, I spoke with a tech support guy who knew of the issue and he said it's just a design flaw. By the way, I'm on rooted stock rom.
So I've just gotten used to it and am waiting til I can afford a Nexus 4.
I haven't found this problem on mine,but maybe you could try to use screen test software,it seems not a hardware problem.
Sent from my Droid Pro from xda premium
Can you give me a name of some test programs. I've already used Screen Test and nothing happens after few minutes of use.
Sorry because I haven't use any screen test app so I don't know.
Have you try other roms already?

Now i dont have a time for testings rom, lots of work on my studies.

Disappointed in the quality. I'm 90% sure it's physically out, but let's see if there's any way to troubleshoot.
Basically, was working fine initially, but it is not something I often use camera/camera flash. I found a thread about the hidden "torchlight" setting so that holding up on the volume when the screen is off turns on the light of X amount of seconds. It was working fine, but then yesterday I saw that it wasn't working.
I didn't think much of it, maybe some app I downloaded caused a conflict. But I just tried it with the camera flash and other flashlight apps and I get no light at all.
Any suggestions? Or am I going to have to deal with VZW.
Had the same problem. Camera flash and flashlight app stopped working. Tried different apps no help. Rebooted the phone and all is working now. Mine is still stock, not rooted

That did it, thanks. Still wonder why this happened though
Idk but don't get me wrong I came from a Note2 to the Note 3 and I absolutely love this phone but there's quite a few little bugs I've noticed. We definitely need a software update! Idk if u guys experienced it yet but a few times now I had all my apps that were in folders I made just get completely thrown out of them. At first I thought it was just with 3rd party launchers but then it happened once with TW too. I am not rooted either.

I believe there has been a small software update to the Canadian and European note 3's. We should get that soon enough. Overall though a great phone

I don't know what happened but the other day my touchscreen started acting up. For some reason the knock on doesn't work at all, but knock off does. Also there is like a strip about a half inch from the top of my screen where the touchscreen just does not work. I can't click on anything in that area. I'm running OptimuS v 2.2

Not with stock KK ROM, nope. Maybe others can help you. Otherwise I'd recommend doing factory reset. If that doesn't help, returning to stock to see if it's the ROM or hardware.
Im having that same problem im on stock rom it has never been droped i dont know how to fix it and now it gives me an alert saying it detects my screen is broken although its not
