Has anyone else noticed the LED not notifiying correctly ? The first 2 days I had the phone it seemed to work perfectly, now the notification will not show until I wake the phone with the power button, to find I have had emails, messages for some time. I know many do not use or care about the notification LED, but it's a must for my situation - I can't always grab my phone and wake it to see if there is a message or email. I have not really changed anything in the power/notification settings since I set this phone up. I tried reboot etc...
No nothing like that here...
Tried a Factory restore??
Maybe a recent app who is interfering
Mine does this quite a lot. The notification light is not reliable. I received two emails this morning and it didn't flash at all.
Other times it flashes for a bit, and then stops. I've had this problem over multiple different ROMs and installs so I don't know what's causing it.
Very annoying - means there's no point in having a notification light!
not had this issue, or at least not noticed it.
last night i did manage to over heat my phone, by having a live video pod cast stream over wifi, while charging, as i only wanted to listen, i lay the phone to rest under my bed quilt.
after about 40mins i picked the phone up and boy it was hot, and i had both the red and green led flashing, not seen this combo before, so it must be a warning to 'stop whatever your doing'

Hey. the notifications light wont stop flashing on my HTC desire wont stop flashing and i have NO notifications. No emails, sms or missed calls. I do have an item on my calender/agenda for late today but i have send the reminder to 3 hours before and at the moment its 12 hours before. I have also tried moving this item to a different day and the light still flashes so it doesnt appear to be that. The battery is currently at 100% so its not that.
Has anyone else experienced this or know what it might be?
Thanks
edit: ok, looking at the phone every 5 mins or so, the light stops flashing for about a minute or so but then goes back to flashing again for no reason...ANNOYING
Title says all. I was just chillin' listening to some music (Let's Get It to be exact) and when I pressed my power button to check and see how fast the WiFi reconnects, I swiped up and nothing happened. It was like that for about a minute or two, the volume rocker worked and I could hold down the camera button and go to the camera, but the touch screen just wouldn't work. I popped off the back and was about to remove the battery and thats when everything went back to normal...pretty odd...just a heads up.
Wifi now reconnects instantly. I am pleased
strange... not had any problems like this at all on mine yet...
Seems VERY responsive, been using it all lastnight over and over and this morning.

Dammit, I thought I said what phone I was using...I'm on the HTC Arrive. It hasn't done it since I've posted..I highly doubt it'll happen all the time (probably won't ever happen again)..just wanted to mention it.
This happened to my arrive right as it was done updating on the screen that says the update is done...the close button wouldn't work, but I remember reading this thread so I waited it out and it started to work after like 2 min
I am having the exact problem on my HD7, only seems to occur if I am listening to music. The lock screen appears, but I cannot swipe.
Mine doesn't always come back and I have to remove the battery.
I have the same issue every once in a while. I'm not on Mango though, I'm running NoDo on a HTC Surround.
It's happened about 5 times in the last six months.
I've had the same issue since before NoDo. The quickest fix is to try turning the screen off and then on again, sometimes it takes a few attempts but it normally works.
haven't noticed on dvp or anything I wonder if its a htc thing...
I haven't noticed it, though I did get the red screen associated with changing the reg entries to get 32 bit color one.
Interesting side not, when I was updating to Mango, on one of the reboots I got the red screen and thought I was screwed, but the update process continued and on the next reboot it was normal again...

nope havnt come across this yet on my Samsung Focus. The only issue seems to be the increased boot up time(phone stays on d Samsung logo screenfor a long time) but I am quite sure its due to Samsungs crappy bootloader and besides I hardly have to reboot WP7 ever anyway
Hey, has anyone else noticed that weird icon where your signal and data icon should be?
Idk if its the new icon for no signal or what...but when I unlocked my phone, I saw an icon that looked like the copy and paste icon where my signal and data icon should be.
I must say I'm noticing this on third party apps a lot, I don't know whether it's because they are downloading data from the Internet or what but it's happening quite a bit at the moment. LG Optimus 7 btw.
I did not have that problem for a long time, it only recently happened. In the morning the device 'froze' for the first time and did not react to any input without the screen turning on.
I took out the battery to restart and everything seemed fine. But later on it happened while I was using the device, certain pixels moved out of place (like a green pixel distortion) and the device froze. Screen turned off soon after. Taking out the battery was the only option.
Now, this is either battery or some other hardware flaw. After restart the battery had been hit with a 20% drop.
Might the device act up by some charging problems? When I am charging the device, I can feel the electric 'buzz' from the docking connectors (the three golden circles).
Also, when it is not charging, I cannot detect it myself, but if I take a strand of hair, the end of it 'sticks' lightly to the screen (and to the docking connector) if I put it close there. I fear like there's some manufacturing flaw there that broke loose.
The device has not dropped once, nor has had any other physical damage happen to it.
Has anyone else had the same symptoms happen?
Sounds like you've hit the same (or similar) issue to others (including me)

Thank you. I thought it was different from Sleep of Death since the initial symptoms were different from weeks ago when I read that thread, but now reading it this seems correct. This thread can be merged or removed, I'll post in the other thread. Thanks again!
I've had that too, couple days ago using Facebook everything just froze. The keyboard went all buggy and green pixels everywhere. The back of the phone started to warm up phone wouldn't respond in any way.
Tried everything I could try, only option was to pull the battery, once that happened phone wouldn't turn back on!
I gave the phone 5 mins to rest before putting battery back in then it turned on.
My heart was pounding I thought my phone had died!
Thankfully it hasn't happened since
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It's happened to me multiple times. Less since I turned off the EQ in the Music app, but it's still happening.
Once it happened with the device just sitting there with Tapatalk displaying a list of posts. I wasn't even interacting with it.
I think it's a OS or driver problem and will be fixed in an OTA.
happened to me once, although when it happened I was already pretty low on battery, about 20% left, maybe less.
I was in a settings menu for some app, I can't remember which. But I had the keyboard up, and the green pixels hit, froze, unfroze, green pixels again, froze, and then shut off.
it would not turn on via the power button, so I quickly pulled the batt and put it back after 30 secs or so and powered it up. Batt did not drop any lower than it was, and it worked fine. Plugged it in, recharged overnight, and has been fine ever since.
I'm running 4.0.1 and I don't have anything but apps made by Google on the phone at the moment.
never rooted or unlocked bootloader.
Hopefully 4.0.2 or 4.0.3 fixes this
i realize now that there's no support for 720P AC3 .MKV files on the Nexus yet, but every time i tried the phone would lock up and i'd have to do a battery pull. other then that, i notice if i have Google Music running and attempt to do something else(multi-task) the phone will also lock up.. but then it will reboot on it's own. i also get lag regularly switching views/menus or going from portait/landscape. additionally, the browser(regardless of which one i use) will occasionally just freeze & close by itself.. usually if i try to do a secure login on a site. i will also sometimes get FC's(have seen them for launcher pro & android keyboard)
Hi!
I brought my Xperia Play phone USED two years ago and I've never had any problems with it.
However, recently, the phone has started to freeze itself in "screensaver" mode (Where the screen goes black after 15 seconds and locks the phone), but the screen won't light up no matter which button I press. I've had to restart the phone every time this happens.
It's been behaving strange at start up as well, as it sometimes take 20 minutes just for it to turn on, while on other occasions, it won't turn on at all!
Is this problem caused by the battery, or is it the hardware?
Is it with stock firmware?

Yes.
I've never modded it or installed custom firmware/apps.
Have you tried factory resetting it?

Yes, but it didn't fix it. The problem still occurs.
tldr: Black screen, no display, everything works "under" (I can answer the phone etc). Not a flex cable problem because occurs randomly, regardless of the slider being open or closed. The problem also occurs during boot up, so rather not a software problem.
I think I have something similiar. Everything was fine until a few days ago the screen didn't want to unlock..or at least I thought it was that.
Basically the phone sometimes works OK but sometimes if I turn off (lock) the screen, it won't go back. To be precise, the phone works and if someone calls me I can pick it up moving the finger where the slider should be, it's just the display doesn't turn on. Same goes for booting, bootloader logo etc, so IMO it's not a software problem.
Strange thing is that it just randomly pops back, sometimes when I move the gamepad slider, sometimes when I put in a jack cable or if I hard reset the phone (remove battery). I've had problems with the flex cable in the past and this time I know that it's not it (no difference if I open/close the slider).
My guess would be some power supply or LCD driver IC issues, because the screen stops working almost everytime if I put the phone into the dock. Moreover, if the screen doesn't work, the orange charging LED is not working (green and blue are OK). The moment the screen starts working, the orange charging LED starts working too.
it's very strange but I'm used to electronics doing strange stuff. Just wondering if I should give a try disassembling the phone and trying to fix it or just buy a new one or something?
I might add that I have bought a new battery ~3 months ago, but it's been working fine to this point. I have tried if the same problem occurs with the old/original battery and it's the same.
well, any ideas?
edit: This video shows something very similiar (except the backlight): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4p0-kv1cxA
Same problem. And I guess this guy has it too.

Any help?
Hi all,
Bit of an odd problem my S9+ seems to have developed. Since I got the September update a few days a go, my Exynos S9+ on Three (but unlocked/unbranded) in the UK keeps on turning the Always on Display on.
I have it turned off by default, but on occasion when I plug it in it'll reactivate it. It doesn't happen all the time, only occasionally, but it does happen often enough for it to be annoying. I had a to add the AOD short cut to the pull down menu to be able to quickly turn it off, so it definitely wasn't something I was accidentally pressing (at least not until I added that button, but it is on the second page of shortcuts).
Anyone else having this problem since the update? Or have I just got a weird phone with a mind of its own?!
Thanks
Always on Display
Hi, I got my Samsung Galaxy S9 2 days ago and it is sort if driving me nuts!
The minute I get a mail or notification from the many groups I'm in- the screen flashes- I guess it's the lock-screen.
I turned off the "Always On Display" but it still flashes...
Is there any way to stop this... I'm a little ADD and it's really annoying.
At he moment I'm just turning it upside down so as not to see it!
Thanks in advance- Robin
