Is it just me that gets this? I hold the power on button, thereafter it vibrates and it takes about 5 seconds I think until it displays anything on screen. Is this normal?

Also, sometimes the screen goes dimmer and brighter by itself, why?

It does the same thing for me... Never really though anything of it. The screen diming might be due to auto screen brightness option, which is fixed in 2.3.4. There is also a disbale auto brightness app for sale in the market if you dont wanna do the firmware update. It drove me nuts waiting for 2.3.4...

This is a stock setting from Sony Ericsson to save power. This may be removed, after root, with a 3rd party app.

My screen lags when R button and Volume up are held then i press the screen (buzzes once), for 5-10 seconds, my phone freezes then it buzzes twice and is back to normal
My phone also outputs a bugreport txt each and every time this occurs, here's the most recent one (stupid mediafire wont let me upload it unzipped)
Never mind, figured out that it's simply a shortcut to create the file

Mine does this too, i was never too concerned with it, i just assumed, with the larger capacity, it just too longer to load up. It only takes a few seconds, not bad in my opinion.

This was already answered, but just to reemphasize, it can be disabled in your settings menu, however doing so, will leave the screen constantly at whatever level you choose, so expect some additional battery drain.
anyone else's phone slow in doing any thing internet based? My internet is quite slow when not connected to wifi as is market, it is even slower than my old San Francisco. Anyone know why this could be? I have full bars of connection and would like an explanation, thanks!

So I'm watching a video (expanded to full screen) on the stock browser at night in a dark room when the screen times out.
I can't find any way of switching the screen timeout off, and have to resort to setting the time to maximum and having to reopen the screen and restart the video every 10 minutes.
There has to be a solution to this annoying problem? Please?

Is smart stay enabled or is it just not working on the dark room ? If smart stay is not working then you can just pull out the s pen from it's holder or hover with the s pen instead of closing the video.

Here one of them from note 2 thread..

U can found more from note 1 thread..
Not saying watch video can confirm the screen burn issue..just saying maybe it can cause life span of screen burn become short..but definately amoled screen can not avoid it..

Fair enough, but there is "no issue."
Why have this phone if you don't use it? Besides, full screen is probably one way to AVOID burn in.
What are you even talking about?

Yes, this avoids the screen burn. Screen burn only happens because some of the led's are used more than others which is why some degrade faster which results in varying color contrasts. Using full screen almost all the time however, uses all of the led's, thus all of them will degrade at a slightly similar rate and the change of color contrast would not be as noticeable to the common eye.

If you mean stock internet browser it will time out don't know why I streamed hell in a cell last week had the same issue doesn't happen on any other phone I know of just this one...I had to stretch the screen so it looked full screen and it stayed on strange I know

I'm having the same problem not sure why there would be this problem considering no phone for the last 4 years have had this problem. Terrible overt sight by Google/Samsung. Really interested if some one finds the solution to this.
Use Profile Scheduler from the play store it lets you set up a profile with a setting for screen time out never option. Thats the only reason I use it. I listen to alot of music in my truck and it keeps the musoc player from going to sleep.
Screen time out issue is only when watching flash enabled videos in browser.
Reason : Flash is not supported in Jellybean officially,
So just using flashplayer.apk will not rewrite screen timeout settings in system files.
And, smart stay doesn't work in dark room with lights off.

Download "Screen on" from playstore.
Check the application ie Internet for stock browser and then check enable.
Dont know if it's because of the screen protector but every time it "wakes up," the lock pattern never works the first time no matter how careful I am.
It only happens on a wake. If I shut the screen off and turn it back on I have no issues. Very annoying
I've been having the same problem and searching to see if I'm the only one! Are you full stock?
I'm using the stock deodex ROM and Perseus kernel.

I do not use the power save mode. Cant figure out but since I am using the jelly thunder ROM I havent had this issue.
If you're getting the same problem even without a screen protector, it must be a defective one. If you can easily simulate the problem you should go to ATT store to get a replacement. It may have a defective touch digitizer, too.
yeah i get this after installing a screen protector
and now after installing a rom, the pen selects even though i am not touching the screen.
I also have the same problem.
I am running the stock rom, with no mods. Like you, this typically only arises when awaking the phone first time in the morning. Thereafter, throughout the day, the pattern lock will correctly not appear.
I also have this problem still. I already replaced my device twice.. I'm on tmobile by the way.
I'm not rooted and no screen protector.

I haven't had the issue in a long time. I attribute it to the power saving mode, which I use from time to time, but haven't in a while.

pretty much SOD > sleep of death. Toggling the power button can fix it. Generally a rough app force closing or bad sleep off settings. o=

Mine is not quite like that, my screen still works fine but if I lock my phone repeatedly it will eventually cycle to this odd issue to where they white keys light up but the screen does not. Once the issue tosses then I can hit the lock key again and the screen is fine..

I have tested this with two of these phones and it is confirmed there for sure. I live in Miami Florida there is a lot of Sun here so I have no problem testing this. Within any app if I am in the Sun and it is directly hitting my screen and my keyboard is popped up my screen flickers it's not a super bad Flicker it's light but it's definitely there looks like your screen is blinking really fast. I'm going to try on as many of these devices as I can but can anyone tell me if they are experiencing the same?

I definately recall seeing it. I know exactly what you are talking about. I don't see it anymore so either my kernel (ktoonsez) fixed it or it was a bloat app.
I can confirm the issue on my I9500. Its not only limited when under the sun, also happens when you turn the brightness level all the way down. I'm still on stock kernel, maybe custom kernel may solve the issue. No settings in stock has mitigated or fixed this issue for me.
The people who are seeing this, have you turned off "Adapt Display" ?
