Hi, I purchased a Note 2 gtn-7105 LTE version, Yesterday and my power button is not working as it should be. Some times it will work flawlessly wile others it will not work at all' Sometimes spamming the button will unlock/Lock the screen. Or with great pressure being pushed on to it.
I also checked the odin screen
Binary is okay
Samsung original is okay
But know warrenty is void 1
Could this be a bug on the power button with somebody flashing roms/rooting etc?
Also the power button acts up when the phone is switched off and I need to power it up.
Thank you ! :thumbup:

If your problem is not related with hardware. It could be just that your phone is lagging and is not waking up immediately cause many people happen to have this problem. Also to test if its not your hardware problem try booting into recovery, CWM and philz recovery have an option for testing out the keys in the advanced section

There might be some button testing apps you can try, since the problem is not there for you always try repeated checking. And if he results are fine then the problem is with your phone being laggy. Try getting greenify(it has a mode to work without root) and greenify as much as possible to reduce the lag. Also uninstall unwanted stuff. As a last resort factory reset
Thanks a lot

Put a custom ROM on And it seems to have fixed my issue. Seems to be a 4.4 problem with the stock ROM. Phones running flawlessly now!

Hi All,
I am in the UK and have a new 16GB White unbranded unlocked Note 2 running stock JB 4.1.1, the device has never been modified or rooted. When I go into aerial view and attempt to drag a home screen into the trash I get a Force Close in Touchwiz which restarts and the home screen remains in place. I have tried format of cache in recovery but it made no difference. I don't want to do a factory reset and lose my stuff, but will do if thats the only fix. Do I have any other options? Has anybody got this problem and did you resolve it?
Thanks for any replies

That happened to me when i diasbled animations in settings, development options, always enable them from 0,5 or higher.
Anyone found a solution to this problem. I had disabled animations from the "Developer Options" previously. I have enabled them now but I am still getting the crash.
Try reboot in recovery and wipe cache and reboot.

Thank you. This fixed the same problem on my galaxy S3.
So I have been having some random reboots and my phone has been freezing and wont turn off unless I pull the battery. I am completely stock only rooted I have never flashed a rom on this device either. I dont know what could be causing these problems the only root apps I have is super user and wifi there. Anyone have any thoughts please chim in. Thank you.
P.S. I have done 2 factory resets as well

Define "factory reset". If you have truly reset all the software, then it must be hardware, in which case, time to visit a Sprint store.
Reset through recovery wiped everything 3 times

I was using Juice Defender and this was causing my reboot and unstalled it and reflash the MA7 return to stock Rom and my problems have been solved. In my case it was software or some tweak that I did that caused my problem. My phone has not restarted ever since this has been 5 hours.
I have a S3 I747 the heres my problem is the phone most of the time will not go into sleep mode and not time out the screen and lock up and some times the phone will just lock up while using it. I have to hit the power button to turn the screen off and hit it again to get things to work at times I got to reset the phone to get going like some apps my just not load so resetting the phone is the only option and the app works fine any advise.

Are you on stock ? If so then just do as stated above. If you are rooted, we might need more info.
I installed several roms full wipe and still same thing some roms worst then others but over all same thing
Tried using different scheduler/governor?
Also, are you doing anything specific when it locks up? Any app being used?

Not in forums. Look in intergalactic ROM thread.
My phone didn't like the latest 3.4 kernel.

Hi all, I finally decided to root and install a custom rom on my note2 however im having some issues with the synergy rom I need some guidance on please.
1. I installed r83 and then r85 over r83 but my device still says my build version is synergyrom_r83 #
2. while running this rom I am experiencing many freezes that require me to pull the battery and seems to be freezing when the phone is in landscape mode.
thanks for reading.
1. That doesnt matter. Its an oversight on my part.
2. Turn off the ripple effect in Settings>Lock Screen> Ripple effect

Thanks for the speedy reply, I will try your suggestion and report.
@the_plattypus
I turned off the ripple effect as suggested unfortunately it is still freezing. Any other suggestions?
Also my battery is being used to quickly, like 10% in 30 mins.
Also when the screen is off and I hit the home screen to turn on the screen sometimes it is bringing up the recent apps menu as the stock rom did before the last official update.
Can anyone else assist with above issues?
I would love to stay on this rom, I hope these issues are fixable.

ok I will install the perseus kernel.
how about the freezing and the home button turning on the screen but bringing up the recent app list?
I really appreciate your assistance buddy!!!
I tried turning off the ripple affect but it still froze so I installed the No Lock app and my note2 hasn't froze since.
I installed the perseus kernal and my battery life is now great.
what can be done about the home button issue? once more the last issue is that when pressing the home button to turn on the screen it is also opening the recent apps list as if I was holding down the home button. this same issue was fixed in the latest official note 2 update.
how can I stop it from doing this?
Platt posted a fix for several things in the synergy thread OP. Flash that and see if the home button issue is resolved.

It probably wont be resolved with that. I still experience it. Ill need to redo the mc2 update to see if a mod from ma7 carried the code over to mc2 base.

Your fine ! Just that Kitkat is all the rage, so I assumed you were on that too.
Try this : Settings >>> Apps >>>>ALL... Find the settings running app. Then CLEAR CACHE. You cannot clear data though.
Hope it helps !
Also, Philz latest (I think 6.14 or 6.16) has some bugs. I would just flash a generic CWM. TWRP latest also is buggy.
Thanks Man I appreciate your help. I'm not so sure about the e980 and KitKat yet on ATT sounds pretty buggy so I'm still holding off.

Hey community, I need your help here pretty bad. I was running the aicp 7.0 release but ended up flashtooling back to bone stock. I am getting constant and random reboots. Sometimes it is a bootloop, sometimes it gets to the att logo, sometimes it makes it to my home screen, and sometimes I can actually use it for 10 or 15 minutes but it always fails and reboots. Is there anything I can try? I am totally stumped. I figured a tot file flash back to stock would have solved this but it didn't. It almost seems like a hardware failure but I have never dropped it, got it wet nothin. Another real odd deal is when I can't get it to come out of a loop, if I take the back cover off it will start up. I thought maybe it was the connection on the back cover so I put a piece of tape over it but it still does it, but even now it is working with the back cover off but randomly reboots. Its always like this, my signal drops to no bars with the red x and then freezes then reboots. Sometimes it's when I wake it up, and sometimes it's when I start a program. Can anyone please give me some hope?
