Sometimes, when i try to wakeup my phone using home or power button, the capacitive keys light up but the screen is black.. I have to press power button to "sleep" and wake it up again... any idea? It was like this since I got it.... I updated recently and the problem still persists... it's not a big deal but a bit annoying at times.

It may be due to firmware bug or some installed app.
You didn't tell what rom you are using (stock or custom). And also check for installed apps that you suspect.

It's a hardware defect. Mine was like this too since 11th april. After changing the motherboard to the newer, 1.1100 version, the problem is competeley gone away. It's waking up every time correctly.
We had a topic about this earlier...
Hardware defect? Are you sure? I dont have a warranty. Bought it abroad. I was hoping it was just a software glitch. I am on stock unrooted

I'm totally sure because i had this bug from the beginning. I was trying all firmware updates, factory reset, etc. It's not related to the fingerprint sensor or any app installed or not.
Ok i have no choice. Will try the solutions i read from google, seems to he a common issue

All i can say is that the old motherboard was 0.800 according to the phone info app, and the new one is 1.100 .

anyone else can confirm it's a hardware issue? does it get worse with time? I still get it (but seems worse sometimes, where i need to press power button several times to wake it up) and i have tried a lot of suggestions
anyone with a non-touchwiz rom have this problem? maybe it is related with touchwiz?

Hello, as I said in the thread title i have a problem with the screen lock after waking up the phone. It remains stuck, until i push the power button again to close the screen, and then it's working like it should. The problem appears one at 6 or 7 times i wake the phone.
I have tried to change the screen lock method, but i get the same problem, with the pattern activated.
I have also changed two roms, so I guess this is not the issue. It is more likely that an app is the cause of this, but i have the same apps as I had on my Galaxy Nexus, so it is difficult to figure out what is the app causing this. I have paranoid android with franco kernel.
Does anyone have a clue about what the problem could be?

Hi,
Please tell me if I have well understand :
When your phone is in standby mode (screen off) and you push power button, the screen lock appear but you can't unlock it ?
That mean the screen doesn't respond some time (1 to 6-7) after wake-up the phone ?
I don't know why but I want to ask you if you have under-volted your phone ?

Hi, you have understand well, that is the problem i am facing. It becomes unresponsive quite often.
No, i did not change anything regarding the cpu, nor the settings in franco kernel.

That's strange, I have the same settings as you (PA + Franco) without any problems.
I know that Franco's Kernels are great but this is the way that I should follow to try to found the problem.
Do a full wipe and re-install PA + PA Gapp.
Don't install Franco Kernel right now and do the test with PA stock kernel.
If the test is OK, the problem come from Franco's kernel -> ask in Franco's thread
If the problem is still there -> ask in PA thread
You haven't any other problem with your touch screen ? Only with the lock screen ?

I have flashed the stock kernel, for a while it seemed to work better, but 5 minutes ago the screen lock remained stuck again.
I have made a full wipe for the instalation of PA coming from rasbelly, one week ago, still the same problem. As I said, i am almost sure that the problem is caused by an app, but it is quite difficult to see which app is causing this....
screen unlock
Hey I had a similar problem. Do you have Lightflow installed? When I had stock everything, enabling additional LEDs including the LCD backlight had no issues. But apparently with PA and Franco kernel it switches off backlight when you unlock screen. Light flow switches it off. Try disabling that control of LCD backlight maybe? That worked for me
My nexus 4 was bought about one month after it was released .
I didn't have this issue in the first three months ,but recently ,about in the past one month ,it occurred kind of frequently and randomly.
Here is the issue:
I lock the screen and leave it there without using .When I am ready to use it ,I cannot awaken the screen even after I press the power button several times, both short and long press ,as if my phone was powered off ,even though I know its power is still 50 percent or so. After a series of random press ,I give it a long press ,then it gets rebooting .
I have been searching on the internet and many Nexus 4 users have this issue ,however, nobody can tell exactly what causes this problem .Some say it is caused by snapdragon batteryguru and some say the battery is not firmly installed .
I don't know whether you guys have ever come across this issue ,what is your analysis about it and how you solve this boring problem...
Glad to see that I can find solutions here...
My nexus is running original android 4.2.2 and is not rooted.
sleep of death. long press (10-20 seconds) powers off/reboots the phone. can be caused by phones software, undervolting and apps.
i haven't got any issues like this, have you installed a rom? if you have try another rom, also remove battery guru as suggested

hi guys..
Got my new phone at the launching day.. everything runs perfect..
But yesterday and today i encounter a small issue..
please note that i have fingerprint scanner lock on my phone..
when i pressed the home button just to wake the screen, the screen didn't respond.. only the side buttons lid..
the screen remained black after the second press too.. then i pressed the power button once and the screen woke..
the thing was that when i pressed the power button after this incident the home screen game me a third option, apart from emergency calls (left) and alternative password (right), Unlock via Google placed to the middle..
this happened also today twice..
Any suggestions on this ?? did anyone encounter this ??
please note that i didn't use any other locking method except fingerprint scanner and the home button responds fine in any other case.. Thanx..
I randomly get unresponsive touches when trying to open an app in the app drawer folders. Haven't had the home button issue though

I'm having the exact same problem. Very disappointing for a new device. Not sure if I'm going to return it yet. I've tried factory reset and it didn't fix it.
Guy in the shop said he'll have to send it back to Samsung for testing.
I've gone back to using my old phone !!!!!!

im having similar issues while on a call, i cant type in the extension, i touch the number pad and it does nothing. I turn off screen and now it doesnt want to turn back on. Like anything new, there will be a few hiccups, but samsung are usually fast for that first firmware push. I remember for the S4, i got it on launch day and the same day a new firmware was available, the note 3 took about 10 days before that initial firmware that fixed the few most obvious issues. Dont bring it back, just be patient.

Did that now and will test it through all day .. so far so good..

hopefully it will get fixed.. if not we wait for an firmware update..
UPDATE
I used my phone all day using the settings above.. (no s-voice at home button and fingerprint lock) I encounter the problem 3-4 times.. other than that all is ok..
Now im going to use all day the pin to lock the screen and see what happens..
thanx
UPDATE

Hey man,
Had the same issue with my S5, I think the wait for the fix is easier to handle if you know there are other guys having the same issue rather than having something wrong with your specific device. So imho it'd be great if some other guys would reply just to know it's a common issue.
To me SGS5 is a great phone even with all the rants and reviews against buying it, there will be updates, we just need to be patient.
Thanks for the post!

I can confirm that i have similar issues too.
Sometimes (2-3 a day) the screen is not waking up from sleep state when i press the home or the power button.
The solution is that i need to press the power button to sleep the device and then press again or press the home button to wake up.
Not a big deal but i hope that this issue is not hardware related and a firmware fix will solve it.
Apart from this, it's really a great smartphone.
Hi,
Just a small update, the issue replicates also when using the Samsung S View case, just bought one and I still get the same behaviour as with the home and power button (i.e. only the softkeys light up, the screen doesn't wake up).
I haven't been able to consistently replicate though, but it seems to happen after long sleep periods.
All the best!

Hi !
One question.
Which ROM version do you have ?
The ...ANCE, or ANCF ?
thank you all for your replies.. its good to know that its not my device..
Hopefully with the new update they will fix it..
by the way yesterday i missed a call, do to that problem.. the phone was ringing but the screen was sleeping..
So i decided to chance my ROM, from EUR-Greece to NEE-Norther Countries.. Also did a hard factory reset after that.. Volume up + Power + Home.. Also deleted the cache partition..
I used odin.. No problems found.. and Kies recognizes the phone..
So i will check how this goes and get back to you..

I would reflash the stock rom you have atm and data factory reset afterwards or try a data factory reset first and see if that fixes your issue.
Known bug. Supposedly fixed in recent firmware updates. More details in existing threads.
Or simply circumvent the issue entirely by upgrading to a good third party screen saver.
If you're ambitious, you could also try the following edit, which may help.
Make a backup first, then try editing build.prop
Code:
mot.proximity.delay=0
ro.lge.proximity.delay=25

Hi,
I'm having the same problem.
It was intermittent for a short while and a battery pull would fix it, now it's permanent.
I get capacitive buttons, I can boot into recovery or download.
I can hear touches on the screen and the annoying at$t boot sound is back since I used Odin to reflash to stock.
I think I have to take this phone to a service center and see if they will exchange it.
I'm worried that there may be traces of towelroot but from the thread that provides stock firmware and instructions for Odin it would seem that I'm good.
Has anyone had any luck with this issue or have any other tips to try?
I'm bummed because I just applied a glass protector and it looks like I'll have to get another.
Not to mention having to drive to the center.
Thanks.
With the new 1.100 motherboard version the problem is solved. It's a hardware defect. Maybe it will be fixed in next fw versions with some voltage or timing setting changes but a mobo change will definitely solve it.
For the record:
The at$t service center reflashed my phone and the screen works again.
IDK why flashing stock with odin did not work for me.
I can see from the post above mine that the problem might come back, I'll insist on a replacement if it does.
still getting the issue but for me I just need to press power 3 times for it to wake up; no need to remove battery

Has anyone test this with older Android 5?
The "Weird" Screen in Low Brightness is AMOLED Burn-in due to intensive use, My S5 Have this problem too.
Try changing the HW overlay / Force GPU rendering in developer options, others have said that works for them, it seemed to for me also but only temporarily. I have had to stop using auto brightness.
Device not waking up is very irritating, even double tap the screen to wake has the same problem, doesn't seem to be the buttons themselves. If you have a custom rom or other way to set double pressing the power button to launch the camera it works as a workaround for me.
Thank you for all the answers guys.

Just changed:
Force GPU rendering : on
Disable hardware overlays: on
edit1:it's better than before. I will feedback later. Also gonna try that camera trick
edit2: It's same again. Tried Home2 Shortcut the get the camera trick. It also didn't work because i want my phone to be locked and it doesn't work on locked status
Any other suggestions guys?

that would be a good place to start
Flashed Wanted ROM, it's still the same. It was better at start tho and somehow it freezes less in battery saving mode.

My solution was buying an OnePlus 3T and never buy a Samsung phone again.
