Recently i got this problem with my play, the thing is when i press the lock button to unlock the phone it doesn't show the slide lock thing, instead it just do nothing like i didn't press the button.
And i thought that there was something with the button, but i found out that the touch screen was actually working.
So i pulled out the battery and turned it on and i got the light working, but when i lock the screen and try to unlock it the same thing happen.
I did a factory reset from the phone, but it didn't change anything.
And i have the latest update from Sony Ericsson and root.

Did you get this issue fixed? I'm getting the same issue now, what's worse is that my home button doesn't response after I use it to turn on the phone.
I was typing out a text today (normal mode, not landscape) and out of nowhere the screen faded out and went to the lock screen. What was even more peculiar was that I had no option to unlock the phone; when I tried to swipe my finger where the unlock button should be, the screen dimmed and the letters for the time turned blue while the other stuff (signal, battery, etc) disappeared from the screen.
When I hit the home button I was able to get back into the phone, however it faded back to whatever mock lock screen was there before. The second time I hit the home button it let me get back to the text and finish it.
Has anyone else had a similar issue? I've unlocked my bootloader, rooted, and have flashed several different radios (currently on ugkl1, stock was xxkk6).

I have not had that happen...I am unlocked, rooted, and running a custom rom and kernel. The only thing i did not switch is the radio...So may be what is causing it?
I reset the radio to XXKK6 just for safe measure.
Anyone else seen this issue?
I had weird problems with typing messages in Handcent with weird lag and even force closes on 4.0.2. Have not had these problems on 4.0.4.
So, as it turns out, this problem was cause by my own stupidity...
What was happening as that, in a very small amount of time, my thumb hit the task manager button, and the Clock app was the one that was right under my thumb, which was subsequently selected. For some reason, if you start Clock and try to swipe your finger, the screen dims.
So, total false alarm. Move along, nothing to see here.
Hi,
I have a weird bug with the touchpad of my phone.
It stops working after unlocking the locked screen.
Ok, here is what happens:
I dropped my galaxy W on the road, then someone drove over it...
After this accident, the LCD screen as well as the glass broke but the phone could still start and was ringing when called.
I decided to take my chance and bought the parts to fix it. I have changed the digitizer and the LCD screen.
The phone boots just fine.
I am able to swipe to unlock the phone and access the home screen.
However, once I access the home screen, the touchpad doesn't respond anymore! Volume buttons, home button and power buttons are still working fine. Options and return button are not working too.
I am even able to access my missed calls from the locked screen if I press on the missed call button directly on the locked screen.
I have tried to access the recovery mode. By pressing volume up+home+power, I can access it, but I then need to press onto the "options" button which is not answering. I am stuck again.
I have also tried to access the downloading mode. I can access the "warming!" menu (with explainations about the dangers related to custom OS), but the phone stops answering after that. I press the volume button up or down nothing happens.
Is it a software issue or a hardware issue (related to the motherboard?)
Thanks for you help.
liquid can be contacted. Odin or try the setup ..:good:
So I bought my wife a new Tab Pro 10.1 model. It started doing this immediately out of the box. Screen works fine for a while. After you lock the device and the screen shuts off, it won't come back on. When you unlock the device everything works, except the screen stays black. Digitizer works, you can swipe to unlock, hear unlock sounds, and even the backlight keys work. Screen just stays off. If you hold power and reboot, the samsung logo shows up and all is good again, until you lock the device. I performed a factory reset, and even played with all settings I could think of. I don't want to flash a custom ROM to see if that's it, as I might need to send it in. Any ideas?

Send it back. Definitely.
What happened is that i opened an app and then the phone went to sleep, when I unlocked it the screen started to glitch and appear to pressing on the screen for itself. I tried pressing the home button but it was lagging and nothing really happened so I held down the power button and reset the phone. When the phone booted back up and I had to enter my screen lock, I noticed that it wasn't corresponding with where I was pressing, also I pressed on the screen with a quick touch, it appeared that multiple touches registered all over the screen. Since I couldn't get past the screen lock, I turned off the phone, went into Recovery and factory reset the phone. Even after the factory reset, the problem persists so I can't even go through the setup wizard. The phone is completely stock by the way, is there any way to fix this? Or am I going to have to send it back?
