This started happening today. When I turn my screen off my signal status disappears and when I turn the screen on it comes back.
The signal bars stay but the 4G LTE icon disappears with screen off and reappears with screen turned on.
Baffling ?
How do you see anything with the screen turned off anyway?
I'm not understanding the problem here....
Because for a split second before the screen goes off and can see the 4G LTE icon disappear and when I turn the screen on it doesn't come back for 1 or 2 seconds. And I do not receive any messages or updates from apps while screen is off. It's like something is turning off my data when I turn the screen off.
Found out the problem it was a battery saving app that I didn't realize I had on my phone still. Thanks for the replies.

In the last few days.. About half the time my screen will dim after a few seconds, but never turn off.. I haven't installed anything new in that time. I check Task Killer and I don't see anything out of the ordinary running... But the screen just never goes off.. Any idea why?
Have you checked the settings for screen turn off?
Hi,
I don't know what's going on with the screen of my one-v...
well I press lock button, so screen goes dark, but after a while it lights up for few seconds showing me lock screen... then it goes dark, and after few second it does it again.
after 2 times it stops, but it is annoying when you put phone on the desk, that it glows so you start to think about coming call or text.
what's going on?
lolsss..
haunted maybe

haha well hopefully not
I thought at beginning that it could be caused because of apz running in background but I have double checked - there are not any

have you tried factory resetting?
Are you using an app like Keep Screen?
My friend had a similar problem when she used the Keep Screen app.
Have you received an update?
Try using another locker like GO Locker or Magic Locker. Inform if it happens again.
strange thing, but it magically stopped happening
That may due to your brightness settings which is set to "Automatic" by default.
well it was too early for me to say that problem is gone... it happens again today ;/
I have fixed level of brightness, no apps except battery life working in background... all newest updates installed.
any ideas?
As of yesterday, I have been experiencing an issue where the GPS on my phone will suddenly turn itself on. Where the problem started persisting was when I was without signal in a basement. I checked my phone and it kept showing the GPS icon on the notification bar. To make sure that i'm not going insane, I left my screen on with the screen opened on the location services, and the button would just automatically switch to the ON position.
Now, I have full signal, performed a soft reset, and still sometimes when I get a call or a text the GPS icon will appear. I know for a fact, that I have been turning it off and have watched it turn itself back on with no command. Any ideas?
I seem to be having an issue with the screen turning on at random. I have Always-on screen set to ON and tilt-to-wake set to OFF, but the screen will turn on sometimes seemingly at random and multiple times in a row. I have done Factory Reset a couple of times and it does not help.
Is there anyone else with this occurance and is there a fix for it?

I have this issue too. I've tried several configurations and it keeps doing it.

Any apps that send a lot of notifications or any notifications that are automatically dismissed/very briefly show up? Can't think of anything else that would wake your watch.
No, not on mine.

I have the exact same issue. At first I thought it was tilt-to-wake having poor gesture recognition so I turned it off. However I noticed without touching the screen it would turn on and then turn off after the stand-by time. To verify that was the case I left it sitting on my desk all day and observed that it would in fact randomly turn on and off. I also noticed that when the issue occurs the battery life decreases rapidly.
Also this issue will continue to occur even in theater mode.
Have you find a solution yet? My smartwatch 3 does the screen turn on randomly and then also touch screen issue occurs, and it makes random touches, swipes going into settings and so on, without touching the screen. I'am on the latest wear version mwd49b.
For more info search on youtube for my video about this problem: Sony SmartWatch 3 screen problem.
I recently began having the same problem. The screen does not turn off after it randomly turns on - I have to manually press the button to turn it off. Needless to say, this tend to run down the battery. I did a factory reset this morning, but the problem persists.
EDITING POST JULY 20:
After factory reset, I actually had the watch doubly connected to the phone, so I have corrected that now. However the problem with the random turn-ons began occurring well before the factory reset. I'm not sure what triggers it, or what stops it, but when it begins to happen, it drains the battery very quickly. The problem only began recently (within the past few weeks), so I'm not sure what changed to bring this on.
A bug in Android Alarm Clock keep the watch active after alarm ring. Just corrected yesterday by an update on Google Alarm/Clock app.
On the phone > android wear app > settings icon on top right > device settings (smartwatch 3) >tilt to wake set to off
Good day guys
I have a question regarding app like galaxy apps turning themselves on randomly. On Oreo, you just turn the apps off and unless you use them, they won't turn on. On Pie, ene turning them off is not working cause they keep restarting back themselves.
Also, there are times the phone goes to sleep mode and instead of the lock screen showing up, it shows some letters on the bottom left corner, what is that?
Thanks in advance
