[Q] Random freezes ? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Is it just me or anybody else has random freezes ?
I'm running AOKP milestone 4, no custom kernel. It's very stable BUT about once per week it happens : i try to wake the phone pressing the lateral button and it does not respond, no matter if i press the button again, long press, or press the volume keys.
Only way to solve is to remove the battery and put it back.
It's not a big deal, actually all my previous phones had some kind of random freezes.
But maybe anybody else had the same problem and could solve ?
Thanks !

Power Button Issue

Hi everybody, I really need help.
I have tis problem:
Occasionally and in the last period more often my phone does not exit from standby mode when I press the power button. It a press it several times and also press the volume buttons in the end it starts. The button is functional because when I press it the buttons on the bottom of the phone lights up, but the display doesn’t.
I have the original rom and already done a factory reset but same problems. Also from time to time when it starts in the end after several tries the display starts to flick.
Android Version 4.0.4
HTC Sense version 4.1
Software number 2.17.401.2
Any idea what to do
Please Help!!!!
How often do you reboot mate?
Can become sluggish and laggy after a while.

This happened even in 5 minutes after factory reset.
I've had issue with the screen with a delayed start. Mine is not that servier though. I if it is that bad, I suggest you exchange the phone. If you don't want to exchange it, you can always take the dive to rooting, although BE WARNED, this does void the warranty so if it doesn't fix the problem, you're out of luck. I hope this helps

Help with random reboots (CM 10.0)

Hello! About 3-5 times a day my phone, an AT&T GS3 running stable CM 10.0 shuts off then reboots. Sometimes before it shuts down, the screen turns on and off multiple times like someone keeps pressing the power button. Occasionally it even pulls up the power menu as if I'd been holding it.
Any ideas on how I could fix this issue? Thanks in advance!

Oddly sounds like a hardware problem. I'd suggest cleaning your power button and/or getting it looked at/replaced.

I'm having a similar problem, but it was on CM10.1.0. Mine would also randomly shut down and the power menu would flash. I'd recommend flashing CM10.1.0 first, (or a newer nightly) and then see if the problem persists. Also you might want to take a look at that power button. It seems to be causing the trouble.
I will bet that your problems will go away when you flash back to stock rom.

I have also had this problem on CM10, what i did was flash a different kernel and have not had random reboots since. I believe is is a problem with the kernel but dont let me lie to you...

Screen sometimes won't turn on

I have installed CM 10.1. Occasionally the screen will not turn on when I press the power button. I have to hold down the button for 10-20 seconds to reset the device to get it to power on. Happens at least 3-4 times a day. Anyone else have this issue or ideas on how to fix it? Thanks.

No one else has seen this issue?
Many ROMs have their little quirks here and there, this could be one. I use hashcode's ROMs so this is just speculation though.
I had this issue with twa_priv's rom. If I keep at the button, pushing it multiple times at different intervals, it would eventually come on. Interestingly, if I went into the developer options and put the CPU at the full 1200MHz, it didn't happen.
Not having this issue with CM (though I'm running 10.2) so not sure there.
This was a common occurrence in cm10.1 with TWA_priv's build I believe. This is called a Sleep of Death or SoD. I thought that was cleared up, but maybe not. If there is a newer version of the ROM that you are on, I recommend trying that. There is no way to recover from an SoD except to force power off like you did, and start back up.

[Q] sometimes screen doesn't turn on again

Hi there,
I have this really annoying behavior of my nexus that sometimes the screen just doesnt want to turn on which means I have to do a hard reset and the worse is that its happens more and more.
Some days ago I read in this forum something about the light sensor but I couldnt find the thread again
Any idea what I can do?
Cheers
Stephan
Are you undervolting on a custom kernel? That can definitely cause your SOD issue.
prshosting.org
no, its the standard google android rom and it happens with 4.3 as well as with 4.4
The only thing is that the device is rooted but that shouldnt cause a problem
I have this same issue, brand new Nexus 7, it hasn't happened yet today but for the first several days (on both stock and then OTA 4.4) I simply COULD NOT make the thing turn on with the power button. I was cringing hard because my Note 2 had that problem out of the box and I had to ship it back for warranty (for six @%$&'ing weeks), but in that case the button felt obviously sloppy. On my Nexus the button has a very crisp feel to it, I was wondering what I could be doing wrong but it seems to have 'broken in' or something because it hasn't happened the last 50 times I poked at it. Honestly, it felt like a software bug rather than a hardware problem.
I also was running stock and had the SOD. I was lucky because I just had to hold the power button for 15 seconds.
