Hey guys, wanted to ask if anyone else had this problem. I searched and found only 1 person that also reported the problem but it was never answered. I tried the ecliptic and nusense roms and had the same issue on both. From a clean install and boot, the screen will not wake fully after pressing the lock button. The soft keys light up and i can hear volume sound changing if i press the vol buttons but the screen won't turn on unless i rapidly press the lock button on top. Happened on both those roms but wasn't occurring on the stock and 4.4 tiktak rom. Anyone have any insight into any this is happening or if anyone has had the same problem?
Kernel source is the problem...or lack there of. When we get the kernels working for 4.3 it should go away. Unless one of the devs says otherwise...

I've been having this issue and its been happening to me on stock, CM10 and ktoons rom as well.
Just randomly when i want to wake my phone up using the home button, it does nothing, or the buttons for menu and back lit up but the screen is black.
Sometimes if i hold home long enough it will show the lock screen or if i use the power button its fine.
Ive just switched over to the S3 from an iPhone so im really used to pressing home to unlock the phone.
Anyone else having this issue? Ive searched around alot of people have lag issues but i haven't seen one like mine yet.

Ok i thought so, sorry for creating a topic on it. on stock it happened it to me a few times as well though.
i just wanted to make sure it wasn't faulty.
I used to be able to just hit the home button twice and it would work but lately it's just a black screen no matter how many times. Using tasks ROM. I'm getting used to using the power button

So I just got my galaxy s3 friday, and I recently rooted it and I have the Jellybean747 Graystone ROM on it. I don't know if this is a ROM-specific issue, or just a device problem.. I searched the forums and Google and couldn't find anyone else with the problem.
Randomly, my phone screen will go black, and the buttons light up, but the phone works. I can lock my phone and hear sounds from it, like the water sound from the lock screen when you touch it. Even the LED is working. But the buttons won't turn off. Even when it's locked and I wait past my button-timeout time. After some time, it will go unresponsive and not make any noise, but the buttons will still be lit up. The only way for me to shut it off is to take out the battery or hold the power button.
When I restart the phone, it works fine, like nothing ever happened.
This has only happened to me twice, once after I hung up from a call and once after I locked my phone after I sent a text.

I've been having the same issue. I'm not sure if my phone is the problem or the ROM that I am using. I even switched roms and i still get the same problem. I have no idea what causes it but usually I'll be on the phone and when i try to hang up the screen stays black but the hardware keys are still lit up and i can touch the screen and it vibrates. Sometimes it just happens when i unlock my phone and check something and then lock it. I try to unlock it with my home button and power button and the screen stays black with the hardware keys lit up and i can even slide across my lockscreen since it vibrates. When i lock my screen and turn it on again it works normally. I was running paranoidkangdroid and currently i'm running pacman rom the 1/22 version with the stock kernel.
I too just started having this issue. Was running Quantum 3.56. I think it may have started happening after an update, but now after installing an older version I still have this problem. Hopefully someone can find a fix.
Hi guys.
So i managed to get my desire wet/damp and whilst it still works it has developed 3 issues:
1) The weirdest of all - the phone wont go into standby, as soon as you press the power button or let it timeout the screen goes off and they instantly turns back on to the lock screen. If i leave it, it will timeout again on lockscreen and come back on, it does this forever. I have done factory resets etc, all the same. Weird right
2) Volume keys do not work - think means i had issues getting into recovery. Finally found a widget to do it and then....
3) Trackpad does not work in recovery so i cannot re-flash or try any new rom to see if that fixed (1)
Proper catch 22
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Brisgstfer
UPDATE
OK I HAVE AN UPDATE:
The plot thickens but i have managed to S-OFF my Desire and eventually install Clockworkmod Touch which obviously doesn't require me to use the trackpad button so I was able to use Recovery. I wiped the phone and tried reflashing the ROM i had been using (Insertcoin) but this made no difference, the phone still keeps waking up immediately that it goes to sleep (either with power button or by sleeping timeout).
So i decided to install a completely different ROM (CM10_VJ_4.1.2_v3.0) and this installed fine. Now the phone will go to sleep and stay asleep if I press the power button. Problem solved I thought!
Now when the phone is asleep 50% of the time, trying to wake it with the power button will cause it to reset immediately and goto the white HTC screen. When it restarted it sits on the unlock screen and keeps timing out, screen goes off, then immediately on again - weird. If i unlock and lock with power button it will behave. For some reason the Search key will wake the phone every time no issues. Only the power key to unlock causes it to reset. Phone is sleeping according to Battery info.
Any other suggestions for what I could try. Could this possibly be something hardware related now? If there a way i can log the key presses or reason it wakes/resets?
Any help really appreciated, the phone is pretty unusable with this reset issue now.
THanks

May be a hardware issue. But try installing a lighter ROM like dGB or MildWild and see if the issue persists.

Thanks mate. So i tried this and installed CM7 today and have discovered something. As i said above the volume down button doesn't work and the volume up only works with some persuasion. Once i installed CM7 the problem where I lock phone with power key and it instantly wakes up now persists (on the JB rom it at least stayed asleep but reset if power button was pressed again).
However whe i changed the display timeout to 15seconds i watched as it timed out and instantly woke then noticed the volume would increment down one notch each it woke up again. This leads me to think that rather then the volume down not working at all it is actually stuck down permanently and could be causing the issue here. Is there any way I can find out if this is the case and disable the volume keys through software or do i need to open up the phone and disconnect it?
Thanks for any help - i think we are getting there!

Flash a ROM which can be unlocked via trackpad and volume can be adjusted from the phone settings without touching volume keys and the power button on the top.
I recommend MildWild5.8 based on CM7. When I was on it, I totally forgot about volume and power keys because all the phone operations can be done without them.
Thanks thats a great suggestion. I actually worked out that the trackpad is being pressed down constantly too because on CM7 when i disable trackpad to wake the phone actually stays asleep.
Is there any way to disable both volume and trackpad buttons at the kernal/system level?
Hi there!
This problem exists in many ROMs, including the stock ROM(5.0.2). When I press the volume buttons while the screen is off, it usually doesn't work the first time. But it will work after I press it the second time or even multiple times immediately. It bugged me big time because I use volume buttons a lot when the screen is off. Do you have this problem? If not, could you please tell me which ROM you're using? Or does anyone know how to fix this problem? Any help appreciated!
This might be the wrong portion of the forum, but I've got the latest Viper rom installed on my 10
I found that my volume down button doesn't affect volume at all, ever. It turns the screen off.
I've even dug through every option, toggled everything on or off testing one thing at a time, and it still does that. Only volume up brings up the volume window. It's obviously rom related, since it doesn't do that on stock (of course it doesn't)
If anyone has any suggestions, or a fix for this, let me know where to look.
Thanks!
