I am not sure if this was reported before. But since some time I do have Issues with different ROMs.
Sign: When I disconnect from Power, the PowerLED keeps shining green and also the status bar shows that the phone still is charged. Sometimes it goes off after a minute or so. But mostly it keeps on (even going orange.after some time ..).
I don't know if this can be fixed by ROM or is a general issue with Sony firmware. Anyway, does anybody knows an easy solution besides reboot?
Happens to me too. I am currently On existence rom.
Usually plugging in the charger again and disconnecting solves the issue.

Hey folks, I've noticed an issue with my One V (CDMA/PrimoC). Sometimes when I press the power button to turn the screen off, it doesn't fully shut off. In very low light, I can see that there's still a faint glow behind the screen. It doesn't happen often (that I can tell) but I have had some crazy battery drain randomly and this might explain it. My phone is bootloader unlocked, rooted and this issue has occurred on various ROMs (I noted it at least on the stock rom and on shubhamchamaria's nON-sENsE rom v1.1 which I'm currently using).
Has anyone else noticed this happening? If you have, do you know of a fix?
Probally the backlight leakage issue, which means you will have to make it all stock again and send it back to HTC. This is a known hardware problem.

When I turn my phone off, the screen seems to also stay on but it is hardly noticible and turns itself off later

I'm not sure if mine eventually turns itself off but it definitely doesn't turn off at 1 minute like it should normally.
Im having a problem on my recently rooted/unlocked/updated to 4.1.2 Op G.
The screen stays on continuously while phone is off and plugged in. I checked developer options and screen options and time outs are all set to 30 seconds.
Anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix anywhere?
I also find that the charging animation comes on if i hit the power button while the phone is off and charging but eventually it goes away and the screen stays on.
Also if the phone/screen are both off and then I plug in the phone the screen comes on and stays on.....
help?
I have this too. When I turn the phone off and charge it you can see the screen is barely lit. I noticed it when I unlocked, so assume that is the cause of it

Miners done this for as long as I can remember, but it doesn't seem to cause any sort of problems, so I've always just ignored it

saw this as recently as last night. I just waited until the battery was charged a little and turned it on to make sure everything was fine. Weirded me out though lol.
Hello guys,
I tried to search for a similar issues but I couldn't find anything similar so please bear with me.
My KF sometimes shuts down overnight. In the morning then I have troubles to switching it on again (clicking the power button, holding it for longer periods of time...). It usually helps for the tablet being connected to the charger, but it takes a few tries to turn it on. After I managed to turn it on again, for example yesterday, it had 80% of battery left.
I am using CM nighties and this is happening already for some time.
I am also using juice defender, I am not sure if that is relevant.
Do you have any suggestion, what could be the cause of this? Maybe a suggested alternative rom? Or some logs I can check? I think the powering on troubles bother me more than the shutting off overnight since I always think it won't come back on anymore.
Also, not sure if relevant. If I try to turn it on and it doesn't, sometimes the button flashes orange. After a few tries it turns green and powers on. Not sure if I am now not only confusing times, when it was simply out of juice.
P.S. On a different note, just curious, does anyone know how if there is a rom with working mic already?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I sometimes have the same issue with the power button - in fact it happened to me this morning where I went from about 60% charge to 16% with a sudden power drop.
Not sure why this happens. I thought it was a bad battery so I changed it but am still getting the problem every now and then.

the only thing that i can think of is that during the middle of the night a soft-reboot happens and it cant boot back up into the system. this would cause it to sit there and continually try to boot up. this would use a lot of cpu and a lot of power. as for why that drains battery while being plugged in, well i cant help you on that.
Thanks for the input. I've wiped dalvik, cache and the system and installed hashcodes AOSP Jelly Bean (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2041694) and at least it survived this night without shutting down so maybe this helped. If I come across the same issue, I will update this thread with new info.
Thanks again,

Sounds like a hardware issue, and Amazon has been replacing those of customers who buy new from them.
Mine has this issue too. I KNOW it has battery power, and is still on, but the screen won't turn on. Only solution is to plug in power, then hold down the power button until it shuts down hard. Then turn back on.
I'm returning mine because of it.
Thanks for the info. I am still hoping this is a software issue.Regrettably I am outside o the US and thus replacing it is nearly impossible. I will see, if the issue returns with the new rom and will update the thread if it happens again, just for your information.

Try going to the WiFi settings and selecting 'never' for keeping WiFi on during sleep. This seemed to work for me.... So far it hasn't happened again.

I think this is the bug I am experiencing:
Shutdown bug stalls out the shutdown. Looks like the device is off, but it's still powered draining battery. Currently requires long power button press to fully shutdown after the screen is black (about 15-20 seconds).
from the 3.4 kernel thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2264563). I am not sure if cm 10.1 nighties contain this kernel, but the description is pretty much spot on.I couldn't test the fix (holding the button for 15-20 seconds), since I already changed roms, but if someone experiences the issue again, he can post if this works and which rom and kernel they are using.
This happens to my Kindle Fire device as well. It just randomly shuts off and it won't come back on until I do a hard shutdown then turn it back on. I currently have AOSP Jelly Bean 4.2.2_r1 on it.

Yes, it happened again to me with the same ROM, but it happens less often. I will try the updated kernel once it is finished.
On May 27, 2013, Hashcode listed the known issues of the current kernel on his website:
Sound / MIC debugging
Deep sleep issues with “omapdss_dpi” device
SmartReflex shutdown loop fix.
Charging driver / OTG improvrments

Looks like they've been identified and are being resolved. :good:
since past couple of weeks i am getting a green mark on my screen. the screen turns back to normal in few hours. just curious to know the root cause. is anyone else experiencing the same problem?
This isn't q/a section.
When does it appear after you boot your phone?
Overheating maybe? Because of high temperatures screen can display wrong colors...
Try to turn it off, leave if for half an hour or so and then use it playing games or running some other CPU/GPU intensive apps. Tell us results.

no speific time. it happens randomly. stays like that for couple of hours.
First banch of phones bad a thermal problems with display.
If phone get heated, display would change color, it come backs to normal when it cools down.
Search for "Xperia S yellow tint" on google.
It wont damage your phone, its just annoying.

As somebody else mentioned, it could simply be an overheating problem, turn it off and open the back cover and put your phone under a fan or something, wait for it to cool down and then reboot. If this fails you can try reinstalling your ROM or repair using SUS, if all this fails then just send the phone back to where you got coz' it could be a hardware issue which can not be manually fixed
Does this happen to someone else? Lately it's happening all the time to me. After leaving the phone overnight connected to the charger, in the morning I disconnect it and the green light remains on and it annoys the crap out of me. The only way to make it turn off after it gets stuck is rebooth the phone or wait a few minutes, connect the charger again and then disconnect it, and most of the time it finally fades out.
I'm on stock .96 with some mods installed (root, cwm, honami framework, new home, rest is stock), but it happened when I was fully stock as well.
I got the same bug.
Root and cwm installed

It's a kernel bug.
From what I observed the green led will stay if the charger is not disconnected after fully charged (100%). I've tried several times that to disconnect the charger immediately at 100% the green led never stays on.
So it's definitely a bug. It was also present in .200.
I hope Sony will adress it at some point with a final firmware update for our beloved XP S.
Yea, happens to me, stock, without modding

Same thing happen to me too...
Til today the only way to turn it off is by restarting it...
