Hi there,im having problem in my s4 mini i9195..when i press the button to lock the screen its just turn back on and keep turn on and off it self..
tried flashing stock roms,factory reset etc,nothing works..
please help..?
Just created an account to say I'm having the same problem. Lock screen isnt working (GT-I9192) and home button is failing to work too.
AOSP Note II user here with the same problem. It shows up when I dirty flash from CyanogenMod to OmniRom (I know I shouldn't). It looks like the keyguard is partially at fault according to the logcat. The Pie Control app works fine but hardware home button and navbar don't work even when I use Tasker to disable the keyguard. It seems some processes think the phone was never unlocked. I'll keep looking into it.

Hello,
I've been using my new note 2 for two weeks now.. and I like it so much
I also used sgs2 and 3 before.
I'm not new to android.. I flashed roms, know every single setting in the device, rooted my sgs2 and tried lots of apps to customize them.
Regarding my issue, I like to set my device to none screen security because I always manually lock it with a press on the lock screen button after I do whatever I want to do with it, and to unlock I always press Home button to get back to where I was immediately without the need to swipe the lock screen.
The problem is when I lock it and there is an app running and then press the home button the screen goes to home default screen and do not just unlock the screen and keep it there where I was last, this was not the case with my sgs2 or sgs3.
If I press the lock screen button instead it does what I want but I prefer to use home button because its much easier.
Its not a big issue but its annoying sometimes because sometimes I get popup notification windows while the phone is locked (whatsapp for example) and I press the home button to see it and instead of just turning on the screen to see the window it goes back to home screen and the popup is gone, or in cases where I'am writing an email or reading something and meanwhile talking to somebody, if the screen gets locked, If I press the home button everything is gone. So I have to switch tasks to open my activity again.
I don't know if this is a jellybean issue or hardware (homebutton).
I know its not a big deal but I would appreciate if somebody can help get around this

It seems to be a jellybean feature no way around unless a mod comes out...
All jellybean roms in Note I had this feature and i remember seeing this thing on SGS III jellybean too
Just install the S Voice app , "voicetalk_NLI.apk".
In S Voice, set "double click active S Voice" will fix the issue.
This actually worked! Thanks
But the problem is that i use another app (home2) to control home button which makes me able to control what app runs when double clicking home or even use a combination of home with back or menu.
Its a very good app if you want to try it.
This leaves me with trying to deal with my original issue tho or just return to old factory setting

HELP PLEASE SOMEONE! :crying::crying:
My ROGERS Samsung Galaxy SIII LTE SGH-i747M running Jelly Bean 4.1.1 has a lock screen bug! I have been googling around the web, but still couldnt find anyone with the bug I am having right now, so i am asking for someone to plz help me out here! The bug just started today, my phone is set to "Swipe" mode on the lock screen, so usually I would just need to swipe my screen to unlock my phone, but today, when i press my power button OR home button, my phone turned on, and showed my lock screen for 1 second, and it unlocked by itself. I didnt have to swipe or anything, all i did was pressed my power button OR home button, and it unlocked by itself. I know this is just a minor problem, but it is so annoying! I am sorry if i dont make any sense, because its hard to explain the situation I am having, but plzzz someone help me out here!
Thanks!!!
Cheers!:fingers-crossed:

Goto settings >security and check what they are set at under lock screen. Less security than swipe is none, which means once it wakes up you are on the home screen.

But the problem i am having is that, mine is set at "Swipe", and before the bug happened, i can swipe my screen and unlock, but now, all i have to do is just turn on the screen with power or home button and my lock screen wall paper will show up and then half a second after, it will unlock to my home screen by itself, and it wont let me swipe.
The above bug happens to me sometimes. I then switched to using a pattern on my lock screen.
If I leave the phone unattended sometimes for a few hours, when I "wake" it, it reverts to a "swipe" to unlock instead of my pattern of password that was set. My phone is stock 4.1.1 and not rooted.

So i am guessing it is hardware problem then eh : / guess i'll go get my phone checked out, i'll update you after if you want. Guessing only 2 people replied to this post, i prob wont find a solution lol.
I currently use Sweep2Wake as my primary method of unlocking and locking my phone, and thought it would be a cool alternative to having a password (as i am on a stock rom with shortcuts on the lockscreen that i can't use with a password) if this could be the only way of unlocking the phone. Most of my friends are iphone users and the ones that do have android phones don't know of this feature.
Ideally the power button would still work when the phone was unlocked (at least for the purposes of the power menu) and turning the phone on.
As an FYI I already have the volume buttons configured to skip tracks on long press.
If anyone knows of an app or mod that i could flash to help me out i'd be grateful, and please no "get a password!" posts
I see a little problem here, if S2W fails for some reason, how you gonna turn on your phone?. neat concept, bad idea
Hello, n00b here!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S II (SGH-T989 T-Mobile), that has four 'hard softkeys', that is, touchbuttons (menu, home, back, search) outside the display area [no physical clicky Home button], and can't for the life of me, or with bad google-fu, figure out how to make the Home button take me right back to the home screen (launcher). When I press it once I just get a haptic 'bzz', and nothing at all happens. When I double-click it, as I have set in the settings, it goes to Task Switcher, from where I then can reach the home screen by tapping outside the miniaturized windows of running apps.
But, how to I make a single click go directly to the home screen?
Ideally I'd like to have the four buttons be menu=menu, home=homescreen, back=back, search=taskswitcher. Installing a specific app for it (that preferably won't eat up screen real estate with on-display softkeys), another launcher, another Settings app etc, is all okay by me as long as it fixes this major nag.
I don't get to choose other than a preset list in Settings, though. :/
System info is SAMSUNG-SGH-T989, CyanogenMod 11-20140506-NIGHTLY-hercules, Kernel 3.0.101-DIABLO-3.3, launcher Trebuchet 1.0.
(As a little gripe and boo, CM-11 on the Kindle Fire worked wonderfully, where the three on-display softkeys for taskswitch/home/back did just what I wanted them to. I can't see any reason why a JB'd phone would be unable to remap the keys to a select very few options just because they happen to be outside the actual display area. Especially as Home doesn't lead to the Home Screen. :/ )
Tons of grapefruitgrateful for any help here!

Problem solved, good enough for me - installing Hellybean and getting rid of all KitKat related junk.
Suddenly the phone works like it's supposed to, whee!

SGH-T989 Galaxy S II. Home keys aren't working. Sent phone in for charging port repairs. Sent phone back to replace touch keypad flex cable. Buttons have worked intermittently since. They also light up intermittently. I was hoping this was software related. Kies says the firmware is the latest. Any suggestions? The phone is for my 10yr old. Don't really want to invest in something new for her right now, just for games!

Hello,
i recently installed lineageos18.1 on my oneplus 3 but when ever it locks the screen it goes black and stays that way.
Its practical impossible to go out of the lockscreen. Sometimes it works by pushing a lot of buttons, but thats rare and no combination seems to work twice.
Does anyone know the issue? In oxygenos i had no problems. For now i disabled lockscreen but thats not a real solution. By pushing the right hardware button i active lockscreen and then i have to reboot the phone to get back in.
In lockscreen all buttons seem to work, it still viberats and the 2 lights below go white if i push to unlock the screen.
i tried swiching on and off the system profiles but no luck so far.
Thanx in advance!
