I tried to search for this, but found nothing close to an answer, and I hope someone can point me to a way of fixing this issue. I am having an issue with wifi-tether (app via marketplace), where your connected and all is good, but it will disconnect then reconnect real quick. It happens quickly, on my laptop, I see the icon show I disconnected, and in about 10 seconds, reconnect. I also noticed that while using it, once the screen turns off on the phone, after maybe 5 minutes of surfing, I have no internet, turn the screen on my phone to see what's up, and notice the 3G icon not there, then it pops up all of a sudden, and my internet is all good.. Anyone else notice that? I have no idea what to do to fix this, so again, any advice would be great. My apology by the way, if I posted this in the wrong secton. Thank you!
I noticed the internet issue don't come into play when the phone is connected to a power source. All last night and most of the day I have it plugged to the ac charger, and when the phone goes to sleep/screen goes off, if I turn the screen back on, 3G icon is there.. As soon as I unplug the phone from the charger, let the screen go off, wait about 3 minutes from that point, click the power button to turn the screen back on, 3G icon is not there, maybe 3 seconds go and it pops up, internet fine.. I never noticed this before, do you lose your interent connection once the phone goes to sleep/screen turns off? If so, is there a method of stopping that? Since I didn't post this before, just in case, rooted with UR3/Stock... Thanks again to anyone that can help me out...

I've got a little problem that is draining my battery.
When i press the power button, my screen turns off, but two second later it turns on into the lockscreen.
Already tried a full wipe to look if some app is causing the problem, but nop. it still had the problem.
However the weird thing is that when i use the phone it never turns the screen off. it does sometimes pop up the power menu, but that does not happen often.
I hope someone can help me, because it annoys the heck of off me that i can't even get 7 hours out of my phone w/ minimal use.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
It started happening two days ago but I haven't changed any settings on my phone. What I usually do is shut my phone off before I go to bed and plug it in to charge. I will normally see my phone shut down and then when I plug it in the battery recharging animation will show up. When I wake up in the morning it will show full battery and I press the power button to turn on my phone.
However, the past couple days I turn off my phone and see it power down. Then I plug it in to charge and it automatically turns back on.
Does anyone know if there is a setting that needs to be changed? If there is I can't seem to find it anywhere. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

I just noticed something similar, if i have it plugged in and i power down the phone it will just reboot instead.
I am not sure what I did differently but whatever the issue was it seems to have corrected itself. Thanks.
Since yesterday after I the device connecting new car charger.. every time it turns off the screen for more than three seconds .. Turn off the device with no sign of shutting down (no vibration of Lemuria shutdown or something like that).
As long as the screen is on the device is fine.
Now every time I connect the device to the computer is turn off.
If the screen is off more than a few seconds the device turn off, if it is connected to a charger you can turn it on only to connect the charger when is working and how he loads it.
According to what is a hardware problem but I'm not absolutely sure.
Please help me take the what the problem is and how to act.
Thank you!
SInce Upgrading to Lollipop my N4 now Freezes when I plug the Charger in. The Screen is Dark the Red Light is Lit. The phone will not do ANYTHING. If I Hold Down the Power Button Nothing Happens, No Matter what I push Nothing Happens. The Screen just stays dark. I end up having to Pull the Battery & Power it On. This Never happened before the Lollipop Update. I dont know if its tied to the 5.0 Update or not but it never happened before. Now it happens almost Every time I charge my N4. After the 1st couple times I thought maybe it was just a glitch & wouldnt happen again but it happens almost every time I charge it. Side Note: I did peform a FDR before Updating to 5.0. Does anyone know what could be causing the Freeze or know How to Start Trouble Shooting the Problem? What I can do to Sniff Out whats causing the Freeze? Thanks in Advance for any Help. Jason T.
(I searched the Forum for anyone else having this Problem & my search results came up with ZERO, I typed in Phone/N4 Freezing while Charging)
Same here. I want to add couple of more issues actually.
-when charger is plugged, that lightning icon disappears and re appears every 50-70secs. But this happens very quickly that your eyes may not catch it. When soft keyboard is on, keyboard disappears in the blink of an eye and reappears. It is impossible to use the keyboard sometimes. I suspect, power button address is called for a reason or a proccess is terminated and re-run again, couldnt identify which process. This gives me the smell of a software error. Some users tell that even they cannot unlock their phone because keyboard pattern is disappearing half way and have to redraw the pattern. If this sucks, disconnect the charger and draw the pattern and reconnect again. But ofcourse after this your keyboard starts malfunctioning.
-When phone left plugged to charger, it never reaches 100% charged so easily. Always starts to slow charging at 92% or 94%. When you watch red light, it seems to go steady but blinks very quickly every 20-30 secs actually. When the phone is turned off, it is again blinking very quick every 20-30secs that even you can not catch. This slows down charging. As the phone is off and no software is running, this gives me the idea that bootloader or in other words bios is malfunctioning.
-I have tried different chargers ranged 500mA to 2000mA, result is slightly changed. Phone's original charger is also a problem.
-Connected bluetooth keyboard, no issues encountered during typing. But when you move the cursor left or right by keeping left or right arrow, it stucks just for a portion of a second and keeps going. So, again there is a software malfunction is interfering this. So strange.....
-When i remove the battery and give about 6-10 secs then re install the battery and startup the phone, problem dissolves for a short time and again starts.
-I have replaced the battery (thinking this is a battery issue) installed a brand new one, result didnt changed.
-For example open google chrome and just wait.... You see (random time elapses) google chrome application restarts. Again do not touch anything, many times you see google chrome restarts. Actually i have tried boatbrowser also. Just run the app and go to a web page and wait..... app restarts. This causes when you are climbing down the page, it teleports to top of the page and reloads.
-I have long pressed power button. When power off and restart appeared, long pressed on power off, then safe mode appeared and selected it. When device started from safe mode nothing changed. Conclusion at this stage this is not caused by a third party app.
-I am a PC user for a very long time, i know when hardware malfunctions, different fatal things happen. Not this kinda things. This things gives me the strong idea of a software malfunction.
-Also, you cannot turn your screen off. When you press your power button it just turns off for a fraction of a second then turns on asking for my password (my unlock screen is password protected).
So, two conclusions; this is a software error (most probably), or a hardware error (less chance). If hardware is malfunctioning then service is required. But u know services are not solving problems 100%. They may simply say "no problems found with your device"
I am also waiting for a solution or an update. I have to tell that this has first started when my battery depleted completely when i was out. When i get back home plugged to AC charger, red light was on but not charging. Phone remained dead for several hours. Then i long pressed power button then it blinked 3 times then to sign of life. Everytime i long pressed the button same 3 blinks came. Removed the battery then placed it back, started charging. After about 40mins phone was awake . In the middle of the night i was up for a drink and my phone was on the wall charger. Screen was turning off then on then off then on non-stop repeating this. That time i was using a different charger. I thought wattage of the charger was not powerful enough. Unplugged the phone saw that it was 94%. This is the all story. But started happening after upgrading to lollipop.
I was on a phone call with a friend when I noticed that the screen wouldn't turn on anymore. After the call was done, I popped out the battery to shut it down.
When I take out the battery and plug the phone via usb charger, the screen turns on and is blacked out. When the battery is in, and I 'turn on' the phone, there is a very slight vibration, and after some time the phone blinks that red LED light like when I have a gmail waiting--it is as though the phone really is on and active, but the screen isn't getting signal.
I'm guessing that there's a loose connection somewhere.
Any suggestions?
I disassembled and reassembled. Didn't work initially.
Left my phone alone for 5 minutes after it booted with no screen signal, and then I press the power button, and it turned on.
So weird. Seems like I'd better back up my stuff while I can.
