my TP2 has stopped turning the screen off automatically. i don't know what triggered the change but the screen doesn't turn of automatically anymore after I use the phone, or if it gets activated in anyway (receiving an SMS, a phone call, ...). i check the settings/system/power and 'Turn off backlight if device is not used for' is selected with the time set to 30 seconds. however thebacklight never turns off. any ideas how to fix this? thanks much!

this happened to me a while ago as well, sadly the only way i was able to fix it was by doing a hard reset. but maybe someone else will know a better way to fix it.

thanks. a hard reset would be a last resort! i have many tweaks and too many apps to give up on easily. any other solutions out there?
I have the same problem but mine also turns on itself! When I turn it off with key it takes appr. 10 seconds and then it turns itself on. This does not happen all the time but when it has started I do not know how to stop it but it stops itself after a while. Soft reset does not help.
Have tried hard reset and then it use to wor a few days then it comes back. Very frustrating as it drains the battery fast.

just get a mda3 with a problem
sometimes when i switching the phone on (power button) the backlight is working but the screen remains black so i can't se anything. the phone is working, i can browse the folders, i hear all the sounds but the screen remains black! after a while hes working again.
does anybody had the same problem? and how can i solve the problem?((((
have u tried a hard reset? ive never had this problem so i dont know, tho i guess if u sync with pc and save all all your wanted files and do a hard reset, it may sort it.
i've already tried hard reset, rom updating etc...
the problem is still there...((
i've switch "turn off the phone after 3 minutes" off, maybe it would help...
because problem was appearing most of the time if device was lying for 10-20 minutes without working...
update: nope, it's still black(
Think you have a bad device. A problem that is know is that the backlight will turn itself of (but you can still see the screen). This is some times the case with mine and I have the 1.40 rom, however I have had this problem with other roms so it must be some software that I use.
i'm also thinking so...
now i noticed that if you turn the device on and get a black screen, if you wait a minute he will switch the screen on. but why?
hi guys,
has anyone experienced a problem where their Trinity will not "wake up" with the short press of the on/off button?
I'm sure I read about this some time ago and am trying to work out if it's hardware or OS related.
I'm running mUn's TE WM6 which I have been for many months now.
The problem has only started in the last 2 weeks or so.
I haven't installed anything new, but have enabled Push Mail for OTA mail.
It's doing it 1 or 2 times a day now and is very frustrating. The only way to wake the phone is soft reset.
When calling the phone from a landline, it does not ring and goes to voicemail.
Any advice or solutions gratefully received.
no one seen this then I guess.
Bummer (for me!)
Try hard reset

thanks John.
But do you have any fact based reason for this suggestion?
I'm happy to give it a go if there's more than 50% chance it will work.

You might have loaded a program that is not liked. Use a backup program. If this does not work then load your backup after the hard reset and you will be back to where you started
P3600 with D810 WM6 ROM; also happens occasionally, recovered with soft reset. Seems to happen most often when I press the On/Off button twice too quickly.
thanks guys.
I'm going to try the hard reset route-I'll report back.
Some time ago this happened to me so often, but said it was due to some application, in my case was Slide2Unlock.
Since I removed by their consumption of memory it didn't happened to me.
(Sorry for my english)
Bugger, this has started to happen to me as well. Only 3 times in the last 3 days but if it keeps is up that will be enough for me to do a hard reset (overdue). Strange cause the only new thing I put on in the last week has been PCM 16 which is only a copy/paste exercise.
The fix in the Hermes forum is to force your device to sleep and not let it go into standby.
I have had some problems recently with DeviceLock 1.2 just ceasing to work and have to uninstall/reinstall to make it work again. I set it to turn the screen off when locked, as this does not put the device on standby, maybe there is the same issue with it going into standby by itself.
I have the same problem..i think that it has to do with the phone hanging..most probably due to some background programs eating too much power and memory and the phone just lacks till it hangs..happens when you have other programs that have hanged as well..my problem is with PocketAlarm..it takes so long to load my phone went to standby and the phone couldnt be called back..in brief the phone just hangs because of a program..i don think it has any problem do to with the hardware or strictly the OS..cant really explain..but the role the OS play in this problem is that it allows the program to make full use of the phone till the phone cant cope with it..its the core of the OS so it cant be avoided with any other versions or anything..sorry it seems rather unclear..hope you guys understand..
same problem for me ... from times to times, when a call hang up, i push a lot of times the red button for going back to the today screen and as it shows up, i click immediately on the Power button for turning off the screen. right after when i forgot to do something (approx 1sec) i push the power button and there it doesn't turn on the screen ... strange ...
what i've installed on it :
TomTom 6
BatteryStatus with today plugin ver 1.04.203 beta4 i put tray icons too.
i've bluezard for sniffing and/or hacking bluetooth devices.
OBDgauge too it's a software that works with a bluetooth dongle i plug into the diag port of my car.
and that's all. ah yes one more thing -> i disable the "HTC Home" because i don't like it.
Same problem here...
Still no solution?
I got this problem from some version of rom by Karmba. But V7.2 is OK so far. It seems happened when I close Egress reader by click X button then turn off screen by power switch. It then would not wakeup again. But if I close Egress and check the running programs from Task Manager to make sure the Egress is not running at the background, then I can turn on or off the screen freely.
So I think this wakeup problem is caused by some running program that was not closed properly by X button then crash the WM.
That was just my personal finding. Hope it help you guys a bit.
If I have the hardware keyboard out and the phone goes into sleep mode and I close the phone, when I hit the power button, I get the issues shown in the attached images. It won't respond to anything unless I open out the keyboard and close it again or, tap on the notification area and close the notification screen. No issues if the phone is not allowed to sleep.
Don't want to hard reset if I can avoid it, anyone else had this issue?
I have never seen my device do this, but I don't think I have ever let my device go to sleep while in landscape.
To avoid this, why don't you just change your backlight settings? While on battery power, set the backlight to turn off if idle for 5 minutes or something. This way you'll never have it fall asleep on you. Unless of course you read extremely slow and a page takes 5 minutes.
Was thinking about increasing the backlight settings for a bit longer. I had that situation by chance last night and tried various things, uninstalling software, bluetooth head set, changed radio, hard reset and even task29 and a new flash, still same issue.
Just starting to get fed up with these little annoyances, would be nice if it just worked, lol.
Wow that's rather odd that you did a hard reset and still had the issue. That would suggest that it is most definitely device specific. Maybe you can call your carrier, and if it's your lucky day they can replace your phone. ??
Why no try Energe ROM, It has no such problem.
Am I missing a setting or something? I am unable to turn my phone(screen) back on at anytime during a call once it times out and shuts off. Neither the power, or home buttons will wake it while a call is in progress. So if at anytime during a call I need to check a text, look up info, or even make a selection for an automated system im out of luck. This has been happening since I got the phone on launch day, and at first it didnt bother me, but now that I have had to call customer support for my home internet a couple times this past weekend it has become quite the issue. As if I make a wrong selection I get stuck in the automated system, and cant wake the phone to end the call, so i have to take my phone out of its case, rip the back off, and pull the battery. I searched google & this forum, but didnt find anything. Was hoping the latest update would fix it, but it seems I may be the only one experiencing this.
Any help or info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Could it really be the screnn protector? I dont seem to have any issues with auto brightness.
I have had my Moto 360 for just over a week. For the second time the touchscreen stopped functioning. First time I resolved by turning it off (very long press hardware button) then left overnight and it was fine in the morning. Turning it off and back on again didn't help. Couldn't factory reset because no touchscreen.
Second time is now.
Does anyone else have this problem? Any clues how to resolve?
Thanks.
Edit: After left off for a while (instant off and on doesn't work) it is fine now. Anyone have any clues or better suggestions how to fix?

Yes mine has done it two or three times since the last OTA update, nothing I did to the screen had an effect, had to reboot the watch to recover.

Mine doesn't recover immediately on a reboot but it is nice to know I'm not alone in the problem. It's better to know that you've only had this problem since the OTA. That means it can be fixed in software. Thanks.
Same here
Lost "touch" today on mine. Had the 360 for about 4 weeks and not seen the problem until now. Wasn't even sure how to turn it off until I saw "very long press" - thanks!
Turning mine back on straight away was fine so it was just a turn it off and back on thing. Frustrating, but I'm glad it's a software bug rather a touch screen fault, that would be a real pain. Hopefully, if it's a bug it will be fixed.
i think.....
I think this happens when the moto 360 is not set on your wrist
Ddoes anyone solve this issue ? My new moto 360 touch screen doesnt work at all. So i can choose any language in initial setup
This problem Occurs when no static energy is given to the case of the moto360. As soo'n as You touch The Iron ring The touch Will work. Release it and it Will stop working. Ik think The touch screen works rather like a conductive layer between the back of the watch and the screen it self in which the skin gives the energy needed to control the screen. When the back of the watch isn't connected to skin the touchscreen completely stops working.
In video you see what happens

Mine did this too, however I broke my screen ordered a replacement and haven't had the issue since. When mine quite working if I triple pressed the power button it lock the screen then pressing the power button it would turn on and work though. Sometimes it wouldn't come right back on like it froze or something.

I've been having this problem too, it's more like my weekend watch but last week i noticed that it wasn't responding and i thought it could be a RAM issue. I've done multiple reboots and it doesn't work.
There was only an occasion where i left it overnight till it almost drained completely and it worked again, and then it started freezing again.
