i am currently using superXE 8.0 and never had this issue untill yesterday when swapping out a sim card and after that whenever i leave my phone for some time and come bach it takes 6-8 sec to turn on the screen (i think the phone unlocks immediately but the screen doesn't show anything) . Anyone experiencing the same?

The screen backlight has a habit of turning off after a few secs, and will not come back on with the exception of about 90% of the time when you put the camera on.
This fixed itself after I used lokiwiz - but since installing other applications has returned again.
Any ideas?

I have now realised despite the phone being unlocked (sim and CID) with lokiwiz - the phone is only switching its backlight off when used with a NON original supplier sim - so clearly there is an additional lock in the phone that lokiwiz cannot see.
That must just have been a coincidence - as it is now doing it with the original sim now too.
It switches on initially - but once the screen back light foes off - either by time or by being put on standby - then only the screen resarts - but is unlit.
Although starting the camera can sometimes fix this.
It also runs very slowly often when this happens - so slowly it can take the windows busy icon ten seconds to go between each 22.5 degree incriment as the 'shadow' rotates over the circle with coloured quarters.
Any ideas?
Same issue
Did you figure out the issue? I am having the same problem.
I have never had this problem but I set up my dad's MDA Vario as a clone of mine at the weekend and got this.
The only differences are he has
1) a SIM lock pin number
2) a GPRS connection.
Both SIMS are Vodafone
Any similarities?
Backlight
Nope. I was running Custom TMO 2.17 with no issues. Earlier I installed Core Pocket Movie Player and reset. After reset, backlight keeps staying dark. I can turn it up through the settings but each time it powers off or goes into screen saver it stays dim and I have to reconfigure.

i have the same problem, it seems unrepeatable to me though, it just does it when it wants...
EDGE
Its going fine now. But I have not been near a PC for ages.
I cannot remember exactly how i did it as it was about 7 weeks ago - but i found the solution on the modico forum and the phone runs like a dream now with the exception of crashing once.
Could be a Fix !!!
I had this same problem on my xda mini s which i bought from 02 over a week ago with the back light kept going on and off..
How i got round this..
I noticed in backlight settings there r battery power and external power if you have external power turn off option say x secs set as well as battery power turn off x secs you get that random shutting off..
I removed the option in external power say turn off in 5 secs unticked that and set it only in battery power ticked
Now mine stays on for around 5 mins or whatever u wana set it to through battery power with no problems....
Hope this helps....
Since a few days I've got the problem that my TYTN takes a long time when coming from standby.
When I press the power button it takes about 5 seconds before anything happens. Normally it just goes on. I already installed another WM6 ROM but still got the same problem. Also all programs are shutdown so that should be any problem.
Does anyone of you know what this problem can be or how to fix it?
Hi All,
I'm experiencing a major issue with my HD. it will self shut down or switch off after entering standby mode, ranging from few minutes to few hours (3 hours to be precise, the last time). Is there anyone having the same issue? if yes, is there anyway to solve this?
please help.
regards,
sanchez
Check if the battery is properly fixed. I mean, that it doesn't move. If it doesn't a perfect contact, as soon as you move or touch the device a bit harder than usual, it can turn itself off.

i did and still it shuts down.. it shuts down randomly in standby mode, ranging from few minutes to hours (maximum 8 hrs so far). the seller refused to replace mine because
1) the phone didnt shut off in standby mode when they were checking it
2) they refused to test it for a longer time
I have the same problm. Every now and then it will shut down and reboot. Annoying when the phone wakes me up in the middle of the night (htc boot-sound)

yours actually reboots itself? mine only shut down / switch off by itself. my only self found solution is by deactivating standby mode, so the phone will go the stage of switching backlight off but screen is still visible... its draining the battery =(
It's not that strange that the phone reboots, that is what happens if a program crashes.
If your seller won't test it for a longer time, try going to an HTC point.

Actually that was what happened with my Diamond. Even hard-resetting the phone did not help.
I sent it back for repairs twice, but the problem persisted.
You device might be faulty, if a hard-reset does not solve the problem.
I had this problem of noticing my phone is turned off at random times (usually once every 2-3 days). I would pull out to use my phone, and its off. I tried calling my phone to see if maybe it was just stuck in sleep, but it went to voice mail. This is very annoying because i cannot rely on my device to be on when it should be (ie- for an alarm) The only way to get it back on was to either re-install battery or hold down power for about 10 seconds. This is my 3rd SGS and it happened on the 1st one and the 3rd (only had 2nd one for a day).
I just realized today (after the 6th time it happened in 12 days), that it only happens to me at places where i have no signal. It happened at work 3 times (where i get no reception), and once in the forest where i was bikeriding. I was in an area that showed no signal, and shortly after the phone was off. (it doesn't make any shutdown noise or anything, I just realize sometimes the phone has randomly turned itself off.
Could reception have something to do with this? Now that I think about it, the 1st phone i had also turned itself off at work....never at home. Will 2.2 fix this problem? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
check your battery
did you flash any ROMs ?
Were you using SetCPU at all?
SetCPU mischief
My galaxy s was having to be shut down and having to have the battery removed to turn on again in all sorts of situations and I blamed all sorts of causes but in the end it came down to various clock speed issues. Now I'm running a minimum of 200
I finally upgraded from S5 to Note 4, I've had my phone now for 2 weeks but I have a problem!
If the phone is asleep (I mean screen off and I haven't touched it) after around 2 hours, it's like it's powering itself off! Because when I put the screen on, the samsung boot logo comes on, not the first galaxy note 4 screen but the second one. After that I can unlock the screen, so it doesn't really reboot completely because otherwise I would have been forced to unlock my Sim-card.
I'm rooted and I've tried different roms, norma v26, batman, black dog, apocalypse.. but now I'm very satisfied with AstraDream UX. Also I've tried flashpoint kernel but I'm satisfied with Ramkernel. But it doesn't matter what I run, the problem always occur. For example, this morning I missed my alarm clock.
I attached a screenshot where you can see that the phone went off around 3 am, I locked it a half hour earlier. Then I woke up 07.50 am and as you can see, the battery drained a lot. I had like 95% then in the morning it was 60 something.
On betterbatterysaver I can't see anything because it restarts its counting from boot, but on GSam, it says that since full charge, the device been on 4-5 o clock am. But it was full charged at midnight.
Someone who know about this problem? Or someone who know a good log program so I can see what's going on?

Looks like you've got the dreaded emmc problem! Search and you will find!

I don't think so, because everybody who have that problem describe that their phone reboots completely several times or they can't boot or they get error message. Also I checked emmc check and it passes. My phone only reboots if the screen has been locked for more than 2hours, and it doesn't completely reboot, just a fast reboot.
It's like it's not completely off because I can press home button, then the phone starts from Samsung logo and then I'm in, no sim card pin either.
if you leave it plugged in does it reboot after few hours of inactivity? If not then maybe try another battery.

No, plugged in it doesn't reboot. I was thinking it was a battery thing, because one day it suddenly fast drained from 25% to 15% and then suddenly it died.
So I got a second battery when I bought the phone and I tried that one, and I got a better battery life and I thought no reboot problems.
But then, during a call after around 1hour, it did the same thing and rebooted to the samsung logo. Also during another call, when I unlocked the phone and opened Textra it rebooted.
Another day I saw it reboot during inactivity for around 15min after a full charge and now yesterday it rebooted when I was going to enter Google Home.
So now I'm back at stock and running stock kernel, so far so good.
You should try wake lock application and use partial wakeup to keep your device from freezing
