[Q] Few Problems with my Desire

Hi guys,
If i turn on my Desire, it stays awake for about 10 mins. Then it seems to be off and i have to pull Battery to get it back working for 10 mins.
The Camera doesen´t work too.
And i have red blur on my Display if the Background is really dark or black.
I have no Battery-LED anymore, i can´t charge the Phone, the HTC Sensation batterycable doesen´t work on my Desire??? I really don´t know if its charging or not :-/
The Phone is rooted and runs MIUI-AU.
4 Weeks ago i didn´t touch the Phone about 8 Days, then ALL worked again for about 5 Days, then the Problems came back.
Not it lies arround and i don´t know what to do.
Maybe someone of you knows what to do or has any idea?
Thanks for the upcoming Help.
(sry for my bad english, i am german)
Try a different kernel first - i had an issue with some kernels - no camera, no flashlight.
If it won't work then try a different ROM or even better a RUU and see if the problems persists.

screen not responding to touch inputs? (not sleep of death)

anyone had problem with the screen not responding after waking up?
There's no way to turn off the phone / make it respond unless to unplug the battery and plug it in again. Had this problem on the first GN and my second replacement GN.
Yep, happened to me the other day as well. There was a crash right before which made the phone reboot. Once it came back, the hardware buttons responded fine but the touchscreen was dead until a battery pull.
Hasn't happened since though.
Had this at lunch today also had it a few days ago.
When returning from sleep the touch input seems to be completely unresponsive.
I left mine for a while to see if it recovered, it did, it came up with the crash report for "System Process" The screen was then responding fine.
Weird. This is indeed different to the sleep of death, because the screen comes on.
Although maybe it's related in some way?
This just happened to me, and so I googled to find an answer. It thankfully led me here. It's like you guys described: I just tried unlocking my phone, but the screen was completely unresponsive. Not a single touch would register, even when trying to touch the Power Off option.
I read robaldred's comment, so I decided to try the waiting game. Thankfully, after a few minutes the screen just came on and the device was ready to use. I don't believe I saw a crash report though.
I hope this won't become a serious issue. I'd hate to be stranded at a point when I need to use my phone.
I had this problem too. have you guys used custom notification sounds?

I had this exact problem and I found it was due to Juice Defender (I have the Ultimate version as well). It kept happening after I installed and but since removing it over a week ago no problems.
Just had it happen here, had to pull batt. Using BatteryXL but will keep it on and see if it happens again.

[Q] Xperia PLAY cannot wake up from sleep

Sorry for any mistakes, it's my first thread on this forum, also English is not my native.
So, I have a problem with my XP. It sometimes (very randomly but 7-8 times a day for sure) cannot wake up from sleep (when the screen goes off, whether it is after pressing POWER button or after a while of doing nothing) It suddenly started when I was using TA rom, but not immediately after flashing but later. I decided to change rom hower it did not help, so I changed the kernel (previously Doomkernel v14, now Lupus) and again it didn't help. Now I'm on my 5th rom (Gin2JB) and the problem still persists. I think it may not be a problem of single device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992626 - the same problem. I tried many solutions but none of them helped: disabling automatic light, formatting SD card (problem persists with SD card ejected). My phone is constantly overclocked: min ~600Mhz max ~1,6GHz. Once, screen came back but with Airplane mode ON but it was once. Could it be the hardware problem (I hope not ) Does someone know what may be the cause?. Thanks in advance
Also, when the screen is "dead" the phone is alive (notification LED is blinking) and the digitiser is working (I mean I can answer calls by sliding)

I also get the same.
I think it's because of link2sd, if you use
I don't use it unfortunately. I have however nearly-broken LCD flex (when sliding, at a certain point the screen goes black but when I slide it to the end it comes back) - maybe that's the cause. I planned to replace it in the nearly future. Also, I observed that my problem doesn't happen on max. display brightness or maybe it's just me but... I had it set from the morning and it didn't happen and when I lowered it to the 50% 2-3 hours ago it happened once. I'm so confused.
IMHO, your flex is causing problems. Most probably flex is causing problems in ALS connection with motherboard...
And if it's not working normaly on stock firmware, then it's not software issue.
Again, that's maybe...
Maybe also ALS is malfunctioning...
Edit: dial *#*#service#*#* and test ALS

Hmmm I have the same problem and I do use link2sd but I believe its the flex cable as sometimes the kernel logo on my phone doesn't show....its strange as it started happening like only a week ago

I replaced my flex cable today and the problem is gone Thanks to all

Z1 Compact with Cyanogenmod - Screen doesn't wake

Hi,
I have:
Sony Xperia Z1 Compact
Rooted
CyanogenMod version 11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-amami
Android version 4.4.4
Kernel version 3.4.0cyanogenmod-g1b20e398 [email protected] #1
Build number cm_amami-userdebug 4.4.4 KTU84Q a265284510 test-keys
My phone's screen has the annoying problem of sometimes not waking when I press the power button (while the phone is turned on). The phone is still on, but doesn't respond to input. I can call it, but nothing happens. I can connect the charger, but it doesn't respond.
I did not experience the issue before rooting. After rooting and installing CyanogenMod, the problem occurred perhaps 1-2 a week.
Recently I encrypted my phone. After that the problem has become much more frequent. The screen is now unwakable roughly 2-3 times a day, some times even more!
The only solution I have found, it to either turn the phone off via the red off button next to the SIM card, or by rebooting it by holding the power button in for so long.
The issue is extremely annoying, especially after it started occurring 2-3 times a day.
I have tried searching for similar issues, but haven't found any solutions.
I have tried changing the brightness levels so the max level is 99% instead of 100%, as someone had suggested, but that hasn't made any difference. Unscrewing the phone and cleaning the proximity sensor, as someone else had suggested, is something I haven't tried yet, as I don't feel competent enough to unscrew the phone.
The phone used to have the protection plastic provided from the fabric, but I tore that off not too long ago. No change in behaviour.
I have not managed to find one special event that triggers this behaviour or reproduce the issue on demand.
Hopefully someone will have some tips as to what I can do to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.
Any modifications on the kernel? Like special governors or under/overclocking?
As you are using a custom ROM the clear advise here is: try out with stock ROM and see if the problem is still there.
If not, it is a problem with the ROM.
I'm having the exact same problem. I flashed cm11 snapshot two days ago, and today my screen wouldn't wake no matter what.not even a restart would solve the issue, cause the moment the phone goes to sleep after a boot, that was the last time the screen was on. I'm following this thread in case somebody comes up with a solution.
hi there, my phone is acting the same way as yours described. Mine is rooted on stock lolipop and it never happened before although i had a replacement unit and the one before that acting the same way. Pressed the power button and nothing happend regardless screen on or off. Had to do hard reset and it worked for like 1 or 2 days. I went to sony talk forum and ppl seems to say it a bug since the phone released. If anyone got anything would be great help. Thanks
