Hi all.
I have p-601 which is rooted and I am using Nova Launcher. It works fine except of some lag from time to time.
I use the S-pen for everything and with all applications.
Recently I started to notice strange bizarre behavior of the screen with the S-Pen when I capture a screen shot with the S-Pen (Screen Write) some pictures specially with the png format. The screen flashes and displays a horizontal lines then the screen turns off. Then I close everything and reboot the tab and try again to screen write and so on.
This happens from time to time not with every screen write.
Any recommendations or advice?
Best Regards.
I'd do a hard reset in recovery if it bothers you that bad. And if you have any mods running try it with out those installed a few times and do some testing to see what is causing the issue. But start fresh, stock and if it still happens its your device. Either return it, if u can't return it sell it, or just deal with it and wait for an update.

as the title stated I been having random reboots when using the camera but not all the time and it's a very random chance like 40 percent. I used the camera quite often on my first galaxy 2 but exchange at do to screen issues ( vertical lines).
basically what I want to know is if anyone else has experienced this before I ask for another replacement.
its random as I can just open up the camera app or I can be switching from back camera to front camera or just going from gallery back to camera and have it lock then appear to reboot then stay on a black screen which requires me to remove the battery.
so far on this phone I've had the issue on eagles blood and on beast. it happened on the stock kernel and on jugs.. I'll be testing the other one out later. I really do not desire to go flashing back to stock so I was just at hoping on other people's experiences.
I just get a feeling it's not necessarily software because everyone would have the issue with the roms.
could anything in the camera hardware be causing it to work sometimes but then freak out on others?
lastly what does anyone recommend I do the moment that this reboots and locks o that I can get a proper read out for the developers?
sorry for the lack of some capitalization and punctuation because I am speaking this on my phone.
Another thing ive noticed on melvins beast rom is that after reboot some settings get reverted..like brightness settings( they go back to auto)
TL;DR : WHEN USING CAMERA APP THE PHONE REBOOTS SOMETIMES.

Strange problem:
I'm on 4.3 ML3, Note 3 MOD v3.5, and on Devil kernel latest version.
I noticed that when my note 2 is being charged while it's turned OFF, after 5 minutes of being turned off it will automatically turn on again!! ONLY when its charging.
Strange Problem 2:
Sudden restarts.. Not random restarts while its locked or anything, it restarted a couple of times while im just playing with it!
STRANGEST PROBLEM OF ALL:
I was messing around with my note 2, then I was in app drawer.. I tapped on Settings app, and the screen had about 10 horizontal a bit thick Black lines covering the screen, and they grew bigger and bigger until the screen was totally black!! This only happened once, and a restart fixed it.. What would you like to say about this?
The first two problems can be taken as a bad ROM or mod. The third is the graphics driver crashing, most likely.

I have major lag issues when pressing the phone screen (the screen turns on sometimes 5 to 10 seconds after pressing the lock or home button), and the UI is very laggy at all times, apps like the keyboard sometimes take about 5-8 to load, and the gallery app takes sometimes as long as a minute to load.
The reason for the problem:
The problem started when I was trying to up a pic on instagram and then I opened the gallery to choose a picture, the phone lagged, thought this was something usual, waited for 1-2 mins, but the gallery app didn't load at all, the screen was black so I said what the heck, maybe a random hang, just tried to restard - phone did not respond so I removed the battery and after that the phone had major lag issues, before that I did not have any problem at all. This happened on stock android 4.2.2...
Here is what I did
I flashed stock 4.2.2, did everything as usual. wiped data after flashing and the phone was still laggy as f, I reverted to 4.1.2 which was smooth as butter and it lagged also... Now I flashed 4.2.2 a couple of times and the problem still persists. Thinking of getting it checked at the customer care centre, but before this happens I'd like to try to fix it on my own.
Any ideas, anyone ?

Tried it, lag still persists, this could be a hardware problem, as I mentiooned above the big lag issues started after the crash / black screen lag happened, so I am assuming something could have went wrong in the hardware part of the phone,softwarewise there should not be any lag, because Ive triet 4.1.2 and its completely lagless, now it lags like a mofo.
Thinking of brnging it to the customer care service, good thing the phone is still in warranty.
Dunno about the blackscreen but try using LagFix (it's on GPlay).
That app helped to me solve hanging issue I had.

I have a Verizon Tab S 10.5, which has been working fine for months. Now, I'm experiencing random times where the touchscreen is unresponsive. The physical buttons still work, and the bluetooth keyboard still works too.
If I press the power button, then unlock it, the touchscreen works again.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I love the tablet otherwise.

I have the 8.4 and am experiencing the same difficulty. I usually use a stylus and suddenly, the same stylus on the same page of the same site, isn't responded to. I push harder but that never works. I find that using my finger, even for one response often brings back functionality. I've been wondering about the screen protector and whether that gets old or something. Are you using a screen protector?
No, I don't have a screen protector on it. It is in a Logitech keyboard case. Do you use a case?

tab s 10.5 touchscreen unresponsive
I am having the same problem with my tab. At seemingly random moments my touchscreen becomes unresponsive. The home button works but nothing on screen is responsive until I hit the power button, putting it to sleep briefly and then hitting it again to wake it up. At that point the touchscreen becomes responsive again.
I sure hope someone finds a solution.I love my tab but this is a bummer.
Content screen unresponsive
The content screen has suddenly become unresponsive, none of the windows will open or refresh. The other home screens are working, just not the content screen. Any suggestions please?
What firmware are you guy`s using, are you still on stock 4.4.2 or on stock 5.0.2 or something custom.
John.
Hi John
I'm using 5.0.2. I've tried restarting and a soft reset and the other screens/apps work fine, just the content screen.
Jill
I had a search for Samsung touchscreen problems, most were down to the touchscreen connector coming loose due to a drop or flexing of the case, a hard reset sometimes works, a battery pull sometimes works, somebody said he flashed to another firmware and that fixed the problem, but if you are on the stock firmware that cannot be the problem, or is it the new 5.0.2 firmware?
Have you tried a touchscreen tester app ???

John.
It's a pretty new tablet so I guess it's the new 5.0.2 firmware. It's only unresponsive on the content screen so it seems like it's to do with that software - would you think. I don't know how to get at that though. It's Samsung thing and there are no settings for it, it's a bit like blinkfeed on an HTC only it doesn't work!
But thanks for the link, I'll try a touchscreen app anyway. A screenshot is attached hopefully.
Thanks for your help.
Ok, a list of owners affected and tablet models and firmware version, can you give your details so we can get some pattern?
golden422 - 10.5" - need firmware version
mlg250 - 8.4" - need firmware version
dbarkett - 10.5" - need firmware version
jgordon5 - 8.4" T700 - v5.0.2
Galaxy tab s SM-T700 8.4 v5.0.2
Thanks.
Strangely enough i installed nova launcher, didn't like it so uninstalled it and then the content screens started working and are now responsive!
I have the same problem with my SM-T807, running 5.0.2
Any luck on finding a fix?
My touchscreen was only not working on the two home screens where you choose your own widgets. I installed a different launcher, didn't like it and so uninstalled it and then very strangely those two home screens became responsive. Weird!

Seems like a common problem with no resolve! I have same problem have to unfreeze same way many times new hour. I have done hard reset several times no resolve, had to unfreeze 8 times typing this message.
Hey guys!
So just as the subject reads, the phone from time to time can't connect to my camera and I just get a black screen. Switching between the front and back when this happens triggers the error message and tells me to send a diagnostic report to Google. One of the things I tried was to force close the camera process and still nothing. Only fix is to reboot the phone, but eventually in a day or two the camera will crash again.
Just to rule out any kind of corruption, I wiped the phone to factory settings via recovery and the phone still behaves like this. One of the apps I noticed does not play well with the phone is snapchat (current beta). The app is super laggy and wondering if this could cause the camera overall to eventually crash. Any ideas or thoughts are welcome!
Overall I'm kind if disappointed with the performance of the phone over several days. Upon reboot its quick and over a day or two the phone gets pretty sluggish, even locking up at times for a few seconds without being able to do anything. Sometimes exiting an app and going to the main screen takes a solid 5 to 10 seconds.
Yeah the camera app is very, very bugging. Really hoping there'll be an update that fixes the problems with that and 3rd party cameras.

I though I was the only one, the camera takes forever to open and bogs the whole system down, I just the l got the security updates and no camera bugs were addressed

Actually that's exactly the way my Nexus 4 behaved, which was the main reason I had to replace it now. Hope 5X won't do that, or I'd be pretty pissed off. I thought it was a hardware issue, but now according to what you write I suspect this might relate to some application installed.
I'll add myself to the list. Sometimes It doesn't even make picture, just get stuck and does nothing for a while, then for whatever reason it start shooting a sequence of pointless picture. Many times it take 2 pics in a row, like a not asked, not wanted crappy pointless multishot
Camera was completely fine for me until I got an OTA update 2 days ago and now its completely dog ****. Freezes for a while when I open the app, and crashes if I turn the phone to landscape.
I just rooted my phone and camera stopped working. Reset to default did nothing.
I'm on B29K. Do I need to downgrade?

How exactly did you root? And if you flashed a modified boot.img, which one fid you flash? Also, what does "reset to default" mean? Does this mean that you flashed the factory image for MMB29K?
