So, overall I'm very happy with CM7, but there's one major issue with it.
Whenever someone calls me, it takes about 5-10 seconds for the screen to turn on and the accept/reject sliders to come up...
Help? :[

I dont have these problems...even afther reboot?...do you use task killer,maybe its autokilling phone
Auto-kill is off. :/
I am on CM7 and having this issue as well. Not as bad as the OP but it takes a while for the screen to be on and let me answer the call. This happened to me even before playing with the cpu speed. So I can rule that out as the culprit.

Sometimes when my phone rings I can't get it out of lock to answer the phone. When the caller hangs up only then I can answer. This is intermitant. I don't know what to do.
Running the stock ROM, and rooted with unrevoked.

What ROM are you running? Rooted or not rooted? These are things you should remember to post when you're having issues. Makes diagnostics much easier
All I have done was root it. I didn't install any rom or anything. I only rooted it to get the wifi tethering.
So screen turns on, but you are not able to press "answer" when a call is incoming?
Its telling you to hang up on stock rom and go custom. Plus you have better support specially being in this community.
Just saying

I'm inclined to agree. Custom ROMs definitely go waaaaay above and beyond the stock one. I use a combination of MyBackup Root and Titanium Backup free for contacts/messages and apps, respectively. Once you go custom, you never go back
What I was trying to say is that the screen is locked when the phone rings and then when I go to answer the phone it will not unlock until the phone stops ringing. But like I said in the first post this doesn't happen all the time. I would say about 25% of the time it does this. Sooo... Thats what I was trying to say.
Are you using Google Voice?
Are you using Google Voice to direct your calls? I have 3 phones that GV directs my calls to, and I've noticed that sometimes that causes one or the other of the phones to ring "late". Sometimes the Inc, sometimes not. I don't notice an issue when someone calls my direct line to any of the phones.
I am wondering what you would get if you use an app like No Lock that disables the lock screen.
I started using it when I had a roms lock screen fighting with a launcher's lock screen. I would get stacked lock screens, but only sometimes.
Running without a lock screen is not for everyone, so think about how you use your phone before disabling this great security feature. For me, my phone never leaves my side, and I mean NEVER. And if a "friend" starts poking at my phone I start poking in their face or purse... They learn after awhile.

I'm not sure if I would like the no lock because I tend to put my phone in my pocket all the time and it would just turn on and pocket dial people. LoL

SetCPU?
Assuming screen is off when it cannot be unlocked - but...
Are you running SetCPU w/ a low screen off profile?
If not, maybe install SetCPU, and set a higher frequency in the screen off profile settings.
SetCPU is available in the market; it's also available as a free d/l for XDA members here on XDA.

Good call, I do remember when I was revving CPU way down with screen off. When it had been off for ~1-2 hours it'd be sluggish and take a bit for the CPU to rev back up. Never used it that long though because the Kernel I'm using now does this and using setCPU just chews up battery.

Well, there's something to try then - if the kernel is making the device slow to wake, use SetCPU to bump up the screen off profile and see if the issue persists.
Couple folk note just this issue in the kernel threads.
This is a known problem I struggle with myself. You may find that you can stroke up to deny the call but not unlock. It seems that this is some kind of grounding problem. Hearing that I tried setting the phone down and swiping while I wasn't touching it otherwise with some success. I've heard a quick cycle of the power button followed by an immediate swipe down can work. Some report pressing the screen firmly before swiping works. I usually just swipe up, call back and say "sorry about that, what's up?" After all, most people are used to drops and stuff because of Iphones.
I periodically goog "incredible can't answer" looking for the golden bullet.
I have I really annoying problem, when I use sense roms (only sense, not AOSP) my phone freezes almost instantly when going to sleep.
This results in the phone not ringing when people call me, and first receiving texts after i reboot the phone.
And the only way to reboot it, is to remove the battery.
If anyone knows what is causing this, please let me know how to fix it, this problem have made me miss many really important calls.
Thanks in advance
i had the same problem with official 2.2 sense rom (don't know with 2.3, i switched yesterday) , but only when i was on a place with bad network.. In big town like Paris no problem, but when i moved to smallest town with bad network i experienced same freeze...
When you hit a button only the button backlight turn on?
Exactly, only the button backlight comes on.
But I have fine reception at my location
Thanks for the reply

Did you use setcpu?
Usually it happen when you use setcpu and you make screen off profile 128 mhz.

Not anymore, because I had the same idea that that could be the problem, but it still freezes
Thanks for the reply
Today it has frozen 4 times.
And every time with massive battery drains, about 15% in a short period of time.
Hi guys, I'm having a problem with my xperia play when trying to record conferences.
My camera stops after 10 minutes of recording everytime, it even shows the timer backwards when it's the last minute, I was wondering if there is any way to lift this limitation.
I'm currently using the default camera application that comes with 2.3.4 North America generic ROM.
I got a 12GB memory card with around 3.2GB free and the video files take up to 400mb per 10 minutes, so the space shouldn't be a problem here.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Maybe your phones is going to sleep?
Have you tried disabling sleep timeout?

Hmm I wasn't aware that the phone had a sleep option, I can't seem to find it. Only time outs I could find if the screen display which is set to 30 seconds, so I guess that's not it.
Where can I find the options to disable the phone from sleeping?
Thanks.
Actually thats probably what I was thinking.
One thing you could try, when it gets close to 10 minutes, push a button on your phone, nothing to make it stop recording, maybe the settings button, just something to make sure it isn't a problem like this.

I did that and the phone responded perfectly, even changed some options while recording but it still stops at 10 minutes. The strange thing is when it gets to minute nine the counter changes backwards to count 1 minute in red numbers then it stops recording.
Maybe try a different phone app?

I was just wondering if this happens to anyone else. So sometimes I go to unlock and the screen doesn't let me do anything, it happens not just when unlocking but when I'm using the phone too, it's really annoying when I'm trying to text someone back or try to answer a call. It doesn't happen all the time so I could live with it....but I'm wondering if anyone has a fix or has the same problem.
Also I have my phone rooted and g3 tweaksbox, and I turned off the knock in code..I don't know if any of these have factors.

Is it lag? Does it only happen for a few seconds before it starts again?
It's not lag..I don't think unless it's a really long lag ?... I turn my screen on and off and it would still be frozen. Maybe after a few mins of turning the screen off and on again it will work...

Sounds faulty i think.I'd get the phone freezing for a few seconds before it responded, but that was lag.
Aww man that would suck if it was... That's the only problem I have!

i had this problem..it would lock up..freeze and i had to wait for a min or so to come back to life..a hard reset fixed it
Oh okay! That is good to know...I guess I'll be trying that soon
I have the same issue as well.
It's not that the screen "stopped" working. It works, except there's no update on the screen. As if the entire phone is frozen, but it's still giving me haptic feedbacks. Except, actions aren't being reflected on the UI; things like, tapping home navbar button, doesn't take me to the launcher, tapping up/back doesn't take me to the previous screen. I can lock/unlock the phone, but I'd return to the whatever page of the app that corresponds to the back/up command I previously made.
I think, the easiest way I can summarize this is that the OS stopped doing visual updates, while there's actually stuff going on despite that "stuck" screen.
Anyone else experiencing a really long delay when you try to wake your phone up? About 70% of the time when I wake my phone up to just use my phone, it has a bad delay. Most of the time it will take around 7 - 10 seconds for the screen to turn on.
I am stock and un-rooted. I have gone into the stock recovery and cleared the cache partition a couple of times, but that doesn't help. I am really hoping for S-off soon. I'm hoping that a custom rom can fix it.
I'm also experiencing this same problem, drives me insane. I'm hoping that maybe the forthcoming 5.1 update will address that issue.
I've never experienced this. I'm stock still. Kinda sounds like a runway app causing the problem.
Never saw this on launch os or 5.1. Have you tried running it without apps for a while?
Last night I disabled instagram. It seemed to fix the problem so far. I don't use it much anyway. My battery stat still shows it as number 2 on the list. I just uninstalled it. Maybe it will fix some issues.
I have this too...but I'd say only about 30 percent of the time. I use the double tap to wake aout it certainly does not all the time.
Mine does it sometimes. I don't know if it's a delay because I push the power button again and it comes on. Another thing that drives me up the wall is that the screen doesn't wake up after taking the phone away from my ear during a call sometimes. I'll have to push the power button to turn the screen on.

This sounds like either a case problem, or proximity sensor.
You can test the sensor in htc advantage app.

I just tried it, it passed the tests a few times. I have a spigen neo hybrid so it doesn't come even close to the sensor. Who knows.

Mine doesn't wake up after a call sometimes. It just started doing the delay thing again. I wonder if it has anything to do with memory leak on 5.0? I may disable a couple games I downloaded this week and see if that fixes it.
