Does this happen to anyone else? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I am running stock and just wondering if this happens to anyone else?

Most of the time it shows the clock and some info. But sometimes this happens

This happens to me with the face unlock and pattern methods. It's way off to the side so I can't properly input my pattern

I use pattern unlock, but I've never had that problem. I'm still running RC2 of Blackedition ICS though.

Calling All Widgetlocker Users

I bought widgetlocker from the market not so long ago, and i like it.
the only problem i have is that after every reboot, all my widgets i had on my screen dissapear, except for the unlock slider. does this happen to anyone else?
im currently running CM7 RC1. thanks
oh, and while im at it. does anyone know how to set up Minimalistic Text with Tasker to name the current song playing on my phone?
thanks again!
Bump?
Also, I was told by the developer that it is a CM7 bug. Does anyone back this up?
Also, is there a fix for it in any of the nightlies?

TouchScreen stops working occasionally

Hello,
On about 3 or 4 occasions I've gone to unlock my phone with my face and its failed so I've gone to pattern unlock as fail safe only to notice that the screen is unresponsive. No matter what I try it just doesn't respond. A reboot fixes this.
Has anyone else noticed this? Its not like the other touchscreen issues where it seems multi touch related, it does nothing.
Once time I managed to unlock it with my face realising the issue and I found the touchscreen still didn't work even when unlocked.

yes.. happened to me couple of times, but after i upgraded tp 4.0.2 from official google's image there are no problems..
it happened to me after i speak on my phone for a long time anf switch off the screen and switch it back up again.
but no problem now
Glad to hear its not just me then. It does seem a software bug.

It did it again today. At least I know its not Beautiful Widgets as I uninstalled that thinking it was that.

Anyone uses JuiceDefender ?
Cheers~
I have had same issue, I'm on 4.0.3 aosp. I have noticed, if I leave phone for a little while without use, touch screen does come back, most of the time
Running juice defender as well, might try removing and see

I removed Juice Defender but I still had the issue. It just did it again while charging. Are you all using face unlock?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
No. Never used face unlock. Do use light flow, others?

No , I`m not using face unlock. Instead , I do have installed Light Flow !
Cheers~
Unfortunately I don't have light flow installed.

Glad it isn't only me then!
I posted in another thread suspecting it was Juice Defender but after uninstalling it i got the error one more time. I still haven't done a factory reset to check if it's still there, though.
How do you guys reboot when the screen becomes unresponsive? Do you just hold the power button in until it turns off/reboots? It seems like it's worked for me but only maybe 3/5 times.
I just pull the battery out.

I can confirm this problem.
I'm on 4.0.2 stock Google build, no juicedefender.
Only happens on lock pattern.

If you set face unlock, you can unlock and find it still doesn't respond.

I'm running stock 4.0.2 and I have this problem a fair bit. I use a numeric password unlock, and whenever it freezes I just wait a few minutes and the screen becomes responsive again. Very annoying though. I hope this issue is resolved soon.
I've not had any issues for a while. The odd random reboot but no screen freezes anymore.

occurred on 4.0.4
occurred on GSM version running 4.0.4. received an call and could not attend, I don't use any lock pattern. last thing I did before this occurred was to install call filter, not sure if that caused the issue.
I had this problem on my vzw nexus. It just started happening more and more to the point that I had to hard reset to get it to work. The problem never went away so I got it replaced. Then had the replacement replaced due to unrelated screen color issues.

Swipe to call or text

So...does anyone else get this problem?
It is intermittent but very annoying when it happens. When I go to a contact and swipe there name to call them the phone will not call.. it freezes up and then 20 seconds or so later will call.
Anyone else get this?

you got too much stuff running in the background
it does it immediately for me
Thats not it. It does it with nothing running in the background. I've checked that before. I've killed everything then tried and still did it

I had that on complete stock kl1. I used tl swipe over and pver again and then like 20 seconds later it used register all the swipes at once and call like 5 times. Really annoying. I flashed stock deodexed and the problem hasn't happened since.

I'm unrooted on stock rom... don't know why it happens.

same here.. happens ALL the time for me.. was thinking about taking my phone in for it.
That's why I posted this.. if this is not a common problem and only a few people are experiencing it.. I'm gonna have my phone replaced
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
Don't think replacing the phone will solve it.
Try stock Deoxed or any one of the custom ROMS. I've been running smooth as butter with Vultures 4.1 + Synergy Kernel and getting better batt. life than stock.
Hope that helps.

Why wouldnt replacing the phone solve it? That doesnt make sense.. i never had that problem before rooting and hella-flashing.. it has to be an issue with the phone. (For the record, that doesnt mean i dont recommend flashing a custom rom and kernal!! )
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
My phone is completely stock (not even rooted) and it occasionally does the same thing you describe. I just reboot when it does it and it seems to stop.

Because sometimes odex files will mess up things if it was your phone. You would have problems swiping left to right for screens. Meaning the digitizer was damage. Just flash a Rom and the problem will go away.

I am on stock rom. It happened to me randomly.

Unresponsive Screen

So first off the app search function sucks...
Has anyone had a problem where the screen suddenly becomes unresponsive to touch? I can turn the screen on and off just fine with the power button but can't actually unlock it since it doesn't recognize my finger touching the screen. Only way to fix it was to do a battery pull.
I'm also on Eagles Blood with the latest Franco kernel.
I've never experienced this problem. I've run Codename Android, Redemption Rom, and currently on AOKP. I've used Leankernel, Defiant kernel and am currently using Faux123's kernel. As far as the app search function I can't concur because I've never used it.

To answer your question: No.
Was the phone plugged in when it was unresponsive?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
i have the same experience, once in a while,
if you have patience, if you wait like 5-10 mins later, it will be responsive again.
I had the unresponsive screen when I turned the screen on to unlock but I couldn't draw my unlock pattern. Closed and opened the screen using power button twice and it was working again. I've also noticed that sometimes the screen doesn't register touches soon after turning it on. Have to always redraw my pattern because first bit is missed off.

Same here. Very annoying. Is there a fix yet?
I had this problem once since having the phone in November. I did do a battery pull but its good to know you can wait 5-10 minutes.
Also stock phone 4.0.2 ota so its happening on unrooted phones as well.

There is said to be a multi touch issue with the galaxy Nexus, I have experienced it myself. There is not a fix that I know of for the issue yet.

Strange statusbar

Sometimes the time in my status bar goes haywire. I managed to capture a screenshot. Anyone else seen this? It's not a big deal, I'm just curious what would cause it. I'm running stock (touchwiz) 4.3 and rooted.

That strange but I read of 4.3 havin lot's of issues. I had a random soft reboot lately and have been having some weird audio dipping in and out. Also my FPS are laggy on certain games lol.
If you're just rooted w/o any heavy root apps (greenify) (xposed) then I don't know what to tell you aside unfortuantely. I would say flash back to stock but I read that with knox that might not be possible.
sorry for the lack of a solution but hopefully this helps wrap your head around the issue.
