I have noticed that my x2a goes out of standby when I am putting it into its case (on my belt). This causes the display to turn on again -- wasting battery time and possibly starting programs.
Has anyone else noticed this? I find that if I hold the phone for an additional 3 seconds befor I place it into the case, going out of standby does not appear to happen ... but that could be just operator error ... and I have tried to avoid hitting any of the buttons when inserting the phone, but the whole thing could be operator error ... or, like I think, that the phone is sensing a position change and jumping out of standby ...
Is there a fix for this?
I thought I'm the only one experiencing that problem.. The thing is, my phone is just on the table and in standby mode and then for some reason it just opens... Very weird..
Sometimes it happens to me too. i don't know why it happens.

Just a far shot:
Are you guys by any chance using the OneBridge syncronisation software?
I had this problem but it disappeared when my company switched to Activesynch/WMA for Exchange syncronisation.
i noticed my phone was doing this to, so i set it down and watch it for a while and noticed the screen will turn on when it is updating my weather or email, so this may happen when ever it automatically connects (due to some email, weather, ect.) you can try turning off data connection, and see if that changes anything. good luck

mine was off all along... so I guess it doesn't update anything when this happens...
sorry that didn't work, i'm just thinking out loud now, but my phone has recently stopped turning the screen on by itself. uhm things i've downloaded recently was the SDfix.cab and the htcSDK.cab but both of those wouldn't effect it. uhmmm. is there possibly something running in the background? the only other thing i can think of is lock your phone so you won't push button while its in your pocket, and wait for an update (which an update is unlikely to come out). sorry i couldn't help

It's okay dude, I did what you said.. I locked my phone whenever I have to put it in standby mode, and great... It doesn't turn on by itself.. so I'm guessing that I pushed some buttons while the phone is in my pocket...
cheers mate!
It's the magnet!
I know the question was asked a while ago, but noone has posted this as a possible reason.
There is a magnetic sensor for opening the keyboard in the top left corner of the device. When you move your phone near a magnet (most phone cases' covers are held by magnets) it will detect opening the keyboard and go out of standby.

I just tried that, and it does some out of standby when I pull it out of the case ... I was wondering why that happened -- sometimes, and not others -- and that answers the issue of pulling it out of the case ...
Thanks for that explaination ...
But there are other times when it goes out by itself ... but I have it is the case most of the time now, and not on the charger ... so it is not really an issue for me anymore, but it is another mistery solved ...
Yup, my X2 does the same annoying thing.
I agree, best way is to lock the screen.
I noticed that the screen part of the phone is kinda wiggly...
Hello,
I recently noticed an issue with my wifi (stock 2.3.3), where an app that needs to update regularly didn't seem to be doing it when the screen was off. As the phone always sits on its dock when I'm at home, I "solved" the issue by making the screen never turn off.
However, today I decided to give SIPdroid another go, as I tested it when I first got my phone and it wasn't working properly. I found out why, the second I put the phone to my ear, the screen turns off and the sound cuts. If I take the phone away, I suddenly get all the audio high speed as it catches back up.
A bit of googling showed this to be a known issue, the wifi goes into power saving mode when the screen turns off - on SIPdroid there's an option to keep the screen off and it seems to work well, it just dims the screen instead. But that's still an unnecessary battery drain.
I had trouble finding any recent info on the issue (within the past 6 months), maybe I was just using the wrong keywords. So I thought I'd ask here. Does anyone know anything about this issue? Is it likely to be fixed in the next version of android if it ever comes to the desire HD? Maybe there's a fix out there already (preferably without rooting and/or installing custom rom, my phone is just right as it is now...).
Settings>Wireless & Networks>Wifi settings>Hit 'Menu'>Advanced>Wifi sleep policy>Never
That'll prevent the wifi turning off when the screen turns off.

I tried that before posting, it makes no difference whatsoever (besides, the sleep policy is either never or 15 minutes, this problem occurs the second the screen goes off).
If u re root: change radio... try anyone.
stock: mmm default reset to try. (i think)
No:

Reading through the comments, it seems a more general android problem. A reset wouldn't fix it.

My screen randomly turns on and sits at the lock screen for a few seconds for no apparent reason. There are no pending notifications, etc. I assume there might be a rogue app causing this, but I don't have that many installed and even less apps doing any background tasks. Any idea on how to find the culprit?
I found this bug report where some apps are mentioned, but I'm not running any of them.
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39625
On the Galaxy Nexus this issue was sometimes caused by a flaw in the micro-USB connector. I sincerely hope that is not the case with the Nexus 4.
I noticed that the phone wakes up whenever it reconnects to Wi-Fi. I was changing some router settings last night and I constantly saw the phone waking up shortly after the router rebooted. However, this is not the only scenario where it does it.
Mine has done the same, no idea why, only seen it the once, but it certainly happened, sitting three feet away from me, and suddenly Bingo! its on.
Mine wakes every few minutes. Certain apps (tasker, facebook etc) and syncing seem to cause it to happen more often but even if I disable most apps it still happens. I've been unable to identify the source with better battery stats. It happens bone stock and on CM10.1. I'm still getting better battery life than my GNexus but it's maddening.
Mine too. It will do it a few times in succession then be still for a while before starting again. No apps open and google sync off.

So my Nexus 4 doesn't want to go to sleep.
- I have sleep set to 15 seconds
- Dream is off (just in case)
It just stays on. It doesn't matter if it's on the the lock screen or at the home screen. I'm guessing some app is keeping it awake. It just started last night, but I don't think I have installed any new apps. Maybe it from an update.
solved
My phone's screen also used to wake up randomly. it was very annoying, especially at midnight
finally, I found out the reason by using "Wakelock detector" app which is freely available in market.
here is XDA thread about WLD: WLD at XDA Thread
the cause of problem was ad Notification, it was holding "full wakelock" (you can see it in screenshot)
good Luck!
Refer Wakelock Detector at XDA
Ramdom screen wake up issue solved

U made an account to post THIS only?
Voice trained it the first time, and it seemed to be working. Waited a few minutes and kept repeating OK Google from off screen and nothing, went in retrained it nothing...deleted voice pattern, tried it again. Anyone else finding its very flakey?
As bas as ok google is s-voice works everytime
So ok google doesnt seem to wake the phone up, at least on mine not working. So i tried hi galaxy, works like a charm all the time so much for ok google.
Mine wakes up when screen is off for about an hour after trained, then it just decides not to.
Works perfectly for me, screen off, screen on, locked screen... perhaps you should not have set up S-voice too? I have not touched S-voice as there is no need for both apps.

I didnt set up s voice, i only resorted to it after ok google from sleep wasnt working. I had experience like other op where it worked then waited a few minutes and dint work. One app has nothing to do with other app, theyvare completely independant. Anyway to each their own enjoy ok google, lol
go to settings > Language and input
click on the gear button next to Google voice typing
click on OK Google detection
select the options to have OK google on on lock screen and when screen is turned off
Yeah I was playing with it last night and it seemed to have ignored me after awhile when the phone was off.
So maybe the phone is actually going into sleep mode fully.
I've had the Redmi Note 7 for a couple of days now and I've picked up some issues. It would be good to know if anyone else pick up on this or found solutions.
1) Google Maps causes GPS to lose lock if 4G network is in use:
I've set the "Preferred Network" setting to "Prefer 3G" (instead of "Prefer LTE"), then Navigation works flawlessly.
I've used the "GPS Test" app from the Play Store to test if the GPS actually works while connected to a 4G network - it does actually lock. The moment Google Maps is launched, GPS loses lock and GPS Test app reports much lower SNR values.
[UPDATE] I also tested this with Waze and the same issue is present. All is fine with 4G enabled until you start navigation - then GPS loses lock...
[SOLVED] 2) Gmail and Outlook push notifications seem to not work - no matter what settings I change:
I've Googled this problem and tried all the suggested settings for making it work - like setting battery optimization to "No Restrictions" and allowing all types of notifications and setting it to be "Important" instead of "MIUI decides", also locking the apps in the recent apps view. Nothing that I do makes it work. (Whatsapp notifications work though.) Outlook has a "Test push notifications" button that just throws an error when pushed...
[*NOT A* SOLUTION] I got fed-up trying all kinds of settings so I did a factory reset, miraculously got it set to English again, installed all the Google stuff and installed the latest Google Play apk that I could find (simply updating didn't work). Push notifications work now and the "Test Push Notifications" function in Outlook actually returns a "Success!" prompt. - This worked for a day or so....
[SOLUTION] I installed the PNF app (Push Notification Fixer) to make push notifications work...
Any confirmation of the above issues (and possible solutions) will be much appreciated.
Install or reinstall Google services seems to fix the GPS problem, ( it's work for me)
I'm using this link :
https://www.androidexplained.com/redmi-note-7-install-google-play/
Now, I have quick GPS fix with 4G/LTE enabled!
So perhaps it's simply an app bug?

Thanks for the info.
I'll try re-installing Play Services tonight (when I'm back on WiFi). I have installed a newer version of the Play Store than was installed by that Google Installer - to make push notifications work (for a day). Now I had to install the PNF app to make push notifications work permanently :-/

you saved my life. I bought the CN version and thought there would be no way to install play store without rooting.
It's resolve many little bugs with some apps too.
Problems with Redmi note 7
I am using redmi note 7 from a couple of days. Problems that I noticed are:
1) proximity sensor not working properly. I did check in CIT test, its not responding. When i restart phone it is working.
2) when someone accepts your call then phone should vibrate. But mine is not vibrating. I have done a check over settings, in settings it is there that phone will vibrate when someone accepts your call.
3) I have problems with touch also. It is responding to every rubberized things like earphones wires, my backpack etc. My previous phone don't do that.
4) Phone is unable to block unwanted gestures while placed in pocket. For example when i am talking in a call while placed in pocket using earphones, my call is getting cancelled due to these unwanted touches with cloth of pockets. This will also come under proximity sensor issue.
So far everything is great, after factory reset that is, since before it was so laggy that I was pissed off enough to bring it back. But since factory reset, everything is fine. Still encounter occasional stutter here and there, but updates will fix that, I guess.
P.S. camera on this is phenomenal.

I'm struggling with the exact same issue (highlighted) here, using Redmi Note 7 as well. When I'm using my bluetooth earbuds and the cellphone is in my pocket, something is making the music stops for less than a second and then again and again until I stop walking. First I was thinking that could be a bluetooth connection issue, now I'm afraid that it is like you said, a touch or proximity issue. I don't know what to do.
Notifications are bad, took me so long to get Gmail to work!
Also my ambient display just doesn't work at all.
WhatsApp keeps not acknowledging contacts.
This is my 1st time on miui and I really regret it, the os just messes with every single app!
I figured this helps somewhat:
Settings>battery& performance>chooseapps>press the dots in top right>showsystemapps>longpressanyapp>select all>pressmoreatthebottom>norestrictions. See if that helps =) good luck lol
my bug is about battery, 100 to 97% real quick in less than 2 minutes sot. but significantly less drain 97 lower. my sot can last up to 10-11 hours btw.
When I receive or make calls, the remote end experiences a lot of echo.
The work around is to turn off the speaker phone when making calls or receiving calls.
Another issue is if I use headphones then I get local echo!!
It appears the problem could be due to the fact that I have a Chinese version running Global ROM - not 100% sure but it appears to be so.

Battery stats aren't that accurate so as long as you get those long sots you should be fine.
