Phone Keeps FREEZING!!! What the heck Samsung?!!!

My galaxy S freezes out of the blue, and i can't even turn it off. Sometimes i look to check the time, and noticed the phone is turned off. Both problems are only corrected by taking out the battery, and putting it back in...and then waiting for it to happen again!
Is this a software issue that 2.2 will fix? Should I exchange for a new one, or will all of them have the same problems, if bought from the same place? (Best Buy in Vancouver Canada)

either your battery is not good, or your got a defective phone
the new SGS out of the box works smooth
what is your firmware version?
type in
*#*#1234#*#*

Sounds like a bad phone. I got mine from one touch in delta and it has been perfect. Return asap and get yourself a working unit.

Thought you meant lag. Mine lags a lot (stock firmware) and sometimes "freezing" seems the word.
But no, that's not it. Perhaps you can try a hard reset and check your sdcard too, something isn't ok.

I'm actually experiencing the same issue. My phone goes black and seems to be happening more in low wireless connection areas. Like in a mall. With the the *# code I get I9000UGJG9.

if you have LAG issues, install the one click lag fix in the development area
problem solved

Its not LAG issues it a complete freeze issue. My phone goes black like standby mode and will not come out of it. The only fix is a battery pull or holding the power button for 6 seconds. The same issue as the op.

that is a factory defect
take it back, exchange it for a good one
this latest firmware is really good, you should not see anything like that

Allright will do. I figured as much I didn't want to bring it back I already purchased some apps. Guess I'll have to wait for my store to get some.

you do not lose the Apps
once you log back into your Gmail account in your new phone, when you go into Android Market, they will remain in the Download section
those apps are saved in your Gmail account, not in the phone.
that's the cool thing about the android phones
so if you ever switch to say an HTC Android, or a Nokia Android, you can still re-install those apps (assuming they are compatible)

Oh sweet I wasn't aware of that. I sold a couple of the Galaxy S and I'm the only one with this issue as of yet. Hopefully it isn't a common one. I've been trying my best to convert Iphone buyers in most cases when I'm sold out to get this phone I just hope it delievers for my customers and they won't have the same issue as me.

Are u futzing with oclocking or changing CPU mode ? This causes hangs with black screen

I believe this same thing just happened to me. Plug in my phone to recharge it (got it 2 days ago, so the battery still runs out quick) then tried to activate it and Lock screen wouldn't disappear when sliding.

you do know you don't just slide
you have to move the entire picture of the "slide" out of the phone frame for it to unlock
if you say only slide it partially, it will just bounce back and remain locked.
if you have thick fingers it wont work properly
you might be better off using the 3rd party unlock screens, specially the kinds that needs no sliding.

i have that issues nowadays too. randomly "freezes" on the black screen, i can call through my phone (ringing) but there's no notification / vibration or anything or sorts.
the only way is to reboot the phone and it'll randomly happen again after some time >.> and the call that i've just missed isn't showing on the call-log either.
i hope it gets better overtime or i'll just have to reflash!
ps. was fine before i tweaked my cpu settings in sleep mode, you might wanna disable that if you're using it.

Mine has the same problem and by the looks of things a lot of people have this issue. I called customer support and after sometime the rep admitted this and said it will be fixed in next build however I doubt that

Then there are probably lots of diff units out there. The phone shouldn't freeze unless you are using a beta/alpha firmware (pretty unlikely - i've tested more than 10 different firmwares without a freeze), or set the core clock of the cpu to a higher & unstable frequency (OC). people claim that their phone can do 1.2ghz - that's nice, but each chip has a different capability.

[Q] Touchscreen unresponsive after wakeup

About 50% of the time when i wake up my phone and try to drag down the lock screen, the touchscreen doesn't respond. The music widget on the lockscreen also does not respond when i tap it. I have tried restarting and it still does it. At first I thought it was when the wifi was on, but the problem exists either way. Anyone have any suggestions? I am running mdj froyo sense revolution 1.7. Any help would be appreciatied.

Dude I had the same problem with mine running that rom. I would turn screen on and off till touch screen worked. It gradually got worse and worse till it just stopped working. Don't know if its the rom that cuased it or just my device since my touchscreen just gave out and no longer works on windows or android. It's sent off for repair.

i'm also having this same problem with the combo in my sig. very annoying.

Now the problem has spread to winmo too. i have a horrible feeling the touchscreen is going bad as well. what do you have to do to get it back to stock so you can get a replacement?

I have exactly the same problem ! With hd roms too.

For all friends experiencing this issue here is my sum-up:
- HD2 (as I read somewhere) has slightly different resolution than what Android places on the screen (difference in 4 pixels I guess) - but this should not be the issue for normal operation right? Well, maybe yes maybe not.
- My screen went dead completely after using many ROMs but the longest I used was hyperdroid - again I don't think it is build related but hardware related issue.
- I sent back to Tmobile mine and got replacement - but until this one will work we will see...
Solution in USA: I have enrolled myself in extended warranty for $2/mo -- technically it covers the phone for as long as you have it (exclusions are of course liquid and physical damage) but anything else - covered. I even asked what happens if HD2 is discontinued and they said I would get comparable replacement of my choice. Therefore, I am covered.
NOTE: Tired tonight to do any updates - but Im gonna install back HD rom now and move on - push it really hard until it dies again ahahhahaha - cuz guess what? I don care - since im covered now...

it is the power button (AP Board); it gets stock inside. my does it all the time i just played with the botton untill it goes. the AP Board needs to be replace.

Is that a bug of android or is my hd2 defect?

its cuz of the setcpu

This is not the problem we are experiencing. You are experiencing the sleep of death.
What we are experiencing (MYSELF INCLUDED - THOUGH NOT AS OFTEN) is an unresponsive screen when the screen comes on and go to the lock screen, though it wont register the unlock swipe. It takes a good 3-5 seconds for it to become responsive. Not a deal breaker but definitely annoying as hell!
I am having the same issue as the OP and i wish someone can find a way to fix it because it is very annoying.

It's caused by low SD card speed when r/w small block. I used kingstone SD card before, i had the same problem as you. After I switched to Sandisk, the problem is gone. I test the speed of two card, for large block r/w, they had the same speed, but for small block. Sandisk is 20 times faster than kingstone.

thank you my friend. I Change it and all is ok.

Um try waking the screen with other button than the power one that sud help but this is a hardware issue I experience it too and it usually get worse over time so best bet for u is to send it in under your repair or get yrself a replacement but it doesn't have anything to do with specific Rom just is that android puts so much stress on our hardware button because Android heavily relies on the keys through the operating system and the hardware keys ware out and cause this issue so look into this as well but before you send it in revert It back to the stock Rom

No I am pretty sure that it is not a hardware issue. I to have had it, and it is gone the only thing i can relate it to is that i stoped using mdjays kernell,, and started to use hastarin again. well it sure is a longshot but mine works perfekt again.

Do your finger on the sensor and turn it on.

I have the default 16 Gb class 2 card tmobile usa gave me and my hd2 did this on all builds until the new hastarin recently and it stopped it. Has not come back yet. So, while the sd card may have some pull in this issue, the kernel can play a factor too. Try using hastarin's kernel just for a day and see if it works.

ummm ive come up with this

Wake Lag?

I've noticed this problem from the day I got my phone (10/10/13). I'll experience a full second or more of lag when trying to wake the phone by hitting the home button or the power button.
It's pretty bad, so much so that I sometimes think I may have missed the button and go for it again.
Is this common? I've searched online and I haven't found anything about the Note 3 but I see stuff about it happening on the previous Note.

One thing u can try that made speed things up slightly is to go into developers options and turn off or change the transition animation scale, Window animation scale and Duration animation scale. It won't brake anything and it just may help a little. The default setting for each is a 1 so I'd either change em all to a 0.5 or turn em to off. And hell, if u don't think it helps you can always change em back. Worth a shot at least.

Nice tip. In all my years of Android tweaking, I've never come across that one. I don't need fancy screen on/off animations. I prefer quicker response time. Thanks.

This phone is fast enough to where you should be able to do screen on animation with no lag. I'd try wiping cache before disabling anything

I have noticed this too... bugs the hell out of me. i tried putting animations to .5 cause i think it makes the phone look like crap when set to 0, helped a little bit but it is still there.

I noticed this last night. I was missing the swipe to unlock because it was taking so long. Seems ok now, though.

I found a slightly faster response with the three animation options set to 0.

I think its a touchwiz thing my s4 did it stock and it went away with Hyperdrive rom but it came back when I was on cynanogen mod. I feel like my I wore out my power button lol it is a little loose.

Its a Samsung thing with the processor. The Note 2 was the same way. The easiest way explained to me awhile back....once your screen goes off...and all stuff running finishes up...you essentially enter Deep Sleep. It's a battery saving feature...if you will.
Manually turn off your screen, then like..2 seconds later, turn it back on. Should be virtually instant. Now do the same thing but wait 2 minutes....lag.
It is 'kind of' annoying, but I'll deal with it for the sake of battery life.
Now that we have root, you can always try to adjust governors and kernel settings to help it, but until we're able to use other kernels, it's gonna pretty much always be there, the lag, that is.
Hope that helps explain a bit.

The only way around it on the Note 2 was to force a wake lock, basically it never enters deep sleep. You may be able to use an app to do it as well, such as: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl
MikeyXDA was an advocate of the method and explained it really well on his MeanBean ROM for the Verizon Note 2. You just take a slight hit to battery, but at least there's no wake lag.

I'm having a problem with wake lag bad sometimes - several seconds. Mine seems to be connected to the sd card. I have a 32 gb card I used in my note 2 with no problem, it's and sdhc i think. I cleaned it down to 8g of stuff on it and put it in. It kept causing note 3 to dis mount the card each time I turned it on; had a little message at the top left. Much of the time the card would stay dismounted. When I finished a call the screen would not come back on for a long time, couldn't end the call. Took the sd card out, problem resolved. Backed up the sd card, put it in the N3 and formatted. Got better results although still doing it some. I'm wondering if I'm going to have to get a new sd card or trade in for a new note 3.
Any thoughts. I would check the sd card if you still see long lags.

Try to freeze/remove S Voice if you rooted because S Voice is mapped to double tapping the home button. This helped me out a lot on the Note 2 and I removed it already on the Note 3 without comparing lag difference already

Really slow Note 3

Hi guys,
I just purchased a Galaxy Note 3 a week ago. However, I'm noticing that this phone has a major problem (at least, I consider it a problem). Turning the screen on and off has a bit of a delay.
To show what I mean I made this video in which I use a Desire HD to compare it with.
You can clearly see that the Desire HD turns on and off immediately, however.. the fancy Note 3 has to wake up, make a pot of coffee, read the morning news and then decides to switch on the screen.
Is this just my phone? Do more people experience this? Why does my phone do this?
I don't have a second Note 3 and I'm waiting for somebody to test it with. So I'd like to know how other Note 3 owners experience this.
There are many other things about this phone that really disappoint me, but this is one of the things that annoy me the most.
(p.s. I already tried a factory reset, didn't chance a thing...)
Thanks you for any replies/help.

Something up there mate my phone is on soon as i press the button

my guess is ...
that its "some form of lag" caused by an app ??
have you got Svoice enabled ? /
or otherwise its some "app setting "( eg a launcher/camera )
that power button functions , is also assigned to and causes delay ??
Further have you check Svoice settings ?
it does sometimes cause lag as it waits for second press on "home button "
i disabled it completely /otherwise uncheck in S voice settings.
have you tried to wake phone with home button press,not power button.?( any lag ? )
i use Sview cover to open cover and note 3 wakes up straight away !(use no power button at all )
but if i press power button ,wakes up ....immediately !
same with me pressing home button,wakes up ..immediately.!
(No lag at all .)
(but above then,is my experience in tracking " cuplits/apps " responsible for various lags on my phone
The result is my phone is very, very smooth ,no lags or hiccups....
I have the N9005 ,stock, not rooted .
good luck.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I don't have any launcher apps running. I like to keep things smooth and optimized, so I turn off everything I don't need. No Air Gesture, No Svoice etc.
I've been playing with this the last week, and haven't really been able to find anything.
However, I just wanted to delete some stuff and reset some settings and removed my SD card to be safe. Since I removed the card, it seems the screen reacts a bit faster....
But does that make any sense? Could there be anything that could cause this lag/delay that has to do with the SD card?
My current card is a 16gb class 2. But I can't find any info on why the phone would slow down when a slow SD card is used.... Just doesn't make much sense.
In the meantime I continue testing and trying. Others have said that there might be something wrong with my phone, but when I compare stuff with other Note 3 tests, then it all seems ok. Installing an app takes the same time, opening a heavy app too, starting up is just as fast and even after a full factory reset everything seems to be fine.

Mine has a bit of a delay too...I was wondering if it was only me. With mine it's pretty erratic though - sometimes it takes a full second or so to activate the screen, while other times it comes on almost instantly.
I did notice on many occasions using the home button to wake is quicker, plus it's generally easier to get to one handed.
p.s. do you have the Verizon variant?

Good to read that somebody else noticed this to.
In the mean time I have been testing some more. After disabling almost anything that could have to do with either cpu usage or lockscreen usage, removing the SD card, removing the sim card, deleting many apps and using a very low res image, the phone becomes almost as quick as the Desire HD.
There is still a difference, the Note 3 is still a tiny little bit slower, but it has been improved.
However, if I need to do all this radical stuff to make a 2.3 ghz powerhouse perform the same as a 4 year old 1 ghz calculator.... then this phone is just not worth the money I spent on it.
Very, very dissapointed.
After my testing I applied all my previous settings, apps and such to a phone from my friend. Just like you said (siciliano) there is a noticable delay. An erratic delay, but still noticable. Sometimes it's really quick, other times it's really slow.
My Desire HD has never shown any delay... not even when I'm downloading 5 apps at the same time (which makes it quite slow).
This phone will go on for sale tomorrow. I'm not gonna spent 600 euro on a toy that can't perform the way it should.
p.s. No, it's not a Verizon phone. I bought the phone, without phone-plan or anything. Just the phone itself.

Hi,
I think it's very safe to assume that if you think there's a problem then there likely is. Sometimes you have to turn the question round or switch focus... scratch your head all day about 99 maybes yet you have 1 factor that swings it.
Certainly when it comes to testing leave things out like memory cards or SIMs. Sounds like you have and it's not happy. All might not be lost though. Perhaps the stock firmware didn't load well. Have you tried updating OTA or via Kies or Odin? And was the device bought from a regular vendor?

I just checked mine - same delay. So I restarted it. Now no delay.

@jonty, I got the phone from a well known Dutch re-seller (phonehouse). Unfortunately my results and/or problems seem to be repeatable, which makes me believe that it's not just my phone.
I h aven't used any other ROMs, but I did give it a factory reset (twice in 2 weeks...) and I have swiped the cache. Both did not make a difference.
Even better, right after the reset, the delay is bigger then when I optimize the settings (which means turning pretty much anything and everything off... stripping down the phone via settings).
@Bulbous, how did it take you to get the delay back again. I've tried restarting a few times, but after +/- 5 minutes the delay was the same again.
I just don't understand why a powerhouse like this phone has so much trouble with such a simple thing....
It's like asking Einstein to tell me 1+1=? and then he has to take his calculator out....

If you experience lag like this something is wrong. Note 3 should have no lag at all. I have about 150 user apps adding to the stock apps and have never experienced any lag whatsoever.
If you do, you have fu..ed up your phone somehow..
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

slight delay like 0.5 sec to 1 sec is ok cos it is normal as the phone required to enter deep sleep. (google to understand it)
any more than that might be faulty software or hardware.
if i were to encounter such problem, i will first remove the sdcard and reboot..if not fixed, then format.. without sdcard inserted, reboot and try again.
if not fixed, then i would send to SC ask them check.
the reason i remove sdcard because the phone might still scanning in the background.

Hi,
Although unfortunate it might just be that the device is defective. Although it's new it can still happen.
But before you go the repair/replace route you should at least consider installing any OS updates if there are any and perform a complete wipe. Then see how it performs before installing any memory cards or other software. Perhaps also install a system info app (afterwards) and make sure the chip, cores and other spec are what they should be as fakes do exist.

Something is wrong it shouldn't be that slow, comment above is useless as it's not an animation.

Can anyone confirm this? This could very well be the problem because I know for a fact my sd card is very old.
I'm gonna buy a new 64GB sd card soon anyway, so I'll make sure it's fast.

I had some delay when turning the screen on/off, but im pretty sure that something was corrected in one of the multiple firmware updates that i have installed because i don't have it any more.

Home button lag

Does anyone else suffers from a lag when pressing the home (and also power) button while screen is off? I expect it to response much faster to turn screen on.
Is there a way to eliminate or tweak this thing?
Note that I already disabled S Voice double home key button and reduced the animations scale to 0.5 (in developer settings).

Have you tried using it with no SD card or low memory SD card? See any difference?

I can confirm that the SD card makes a difference.
My 64GB high speed makes it alot worse. I tried a 8GB class4 one and it wasn't as bad.
I'm planning to run the app "soft locker" to prevent the phone from sleeping and monitor the batt life. It makes you switch on the phone instantly.

Alright...
I used softLocker overnight and it drained 4% over a time span of 4.5hrs, basically draining the batt at a rate or 0.89% per hour.
This is with WiFi on throughout. It might be worthwhile to use this during the day. I will continue to test with with different CPU profiles (powersave governor & low speed when screen off).

same issue on mine
galaxy s5 g900h

Mine too!
I noticed in my battery read out that the blue line at bottom of graph rarely if at all is not constant, I read in another forum that when the phone is sleeping there should be no blue line below the graph. The issue seems to have been determined to be related to the SD card, especially 64 gig class ten types. Don't know if that information is correct but I am researching it.

It's not just the 64 gig. I have the 32 gig Sandisk card and I am getting that slight delay as well. When I had the 8 gig card in it was instant action. Now I notice the lag. Can this be fixed via a software update?? This phone should be able to handle up to 128 gigs, so not sure why it's slowing down..
