Hi all, installed both recent att updates. Now when I use action memo and then minimize it, it vanishes. Then action memo no longer works from air command. If I reboot, happens all over again. If I clear app data, same thing. Also, I I've done a factory reset after each update. Any ideas?
Ok, solved it. I turned animations and transitions off and that seemed to break the app. I turned on them back on to 1x, restarted phone and boom! Action memo works again.

I've noticed that my display sometimes doesn't turn off. It'll dim like it's about to turn off, but just stays dimmed. It doesn't do it all the time and I can't seem to figure out why sometimes it doesn't turn off and other times it does.
The tablet is rooted, I'm using Nova launcher, and have Hide Soft Keys installed, though have had problems with Hide Soft Keys disabled too. I have a bunch of other apps already loaded too. So before I start uninstalling everything, was just wondering if anyone else has noticed this issue?

That's because of the crappy power button. You've got to press it harder.
No. I was referring to the automatic idle turn off after a couple minutes. My screen will dim after 2 minutes (what I have the turn off period set to), but once in a while it never completely turns off and will stay on. I set the tablet down, went to the store, came back and the display was still on in a dimmed, but not off state.

Yes I have noticed this as well. Must be a bug? I have my screen time out set to 2 minutes (default I believe) and i have set it down for over 10 minutes and came back with the screen still on.
I did a factory reset yesterday morning.
First, I was kinda surprised after the factory reset, that after I logged into the device again, I found that some of the files were erased, but not all of them. Usually factory reset wipes everything, even the root. But SuperUser was still installed. And I installed AdAway and confirmed root was still working. My TitantiumBackup folder got wiped, but Kindle folder remained. Not sure why the factory reset seemed to only half work.
However it does seem factory reset might have fixed the problem I was having with the screen not turning off sometimes. When I first setup the Nexus 7 I choose the option to restore from my Google backup and I got all the apps I had installed on my Nexus 4 (my Nexus 4 seems fine with those apps). So this time around after the factory reset I played it safe and did not choose the restore from Google backup option and just manually reinstalled the apps I need for now. And so far so good.
Out of no where it stopped working,
I take out the spen and chose action memo it will open and it will close automatically by itself real quick every other thing with spen works except action memo
SNOTE does works but not action memo when i open it up from the spen pop up menu.
Anyone else?
Same here shortly after 5.1.1 update
I'm having the same issues, after I updated to 5.1.1 on my AT&T note 4, I factory reset and then a few days afterward I started noticing that the action memo, when minimized, would sometimes disappear within a popup window (calculator, for example) and wouldn't come back up until some time later when that app was open again, and not even consistently then. It's as if the phone forgot that it had a minimized action memo up, but wouldn't open it again because the system was registering that it already had an instance of that running. A restart fixes the problem but it shouldn't be necessary to reboot just so you can get a function working properly again. I use action memo almost every day, and although I have my doubts that it could be fixed (given that the AT&T note 4's are practically unrootable, eliminating the option of flashing a fix from here or another source), I'd looove a recommendation or potential remedy.
I've had this issue before on my LG Power (Straight Talk branded LG Leon), running on Lollipop 5.0. No matter what I look for I can't find anyone who's experienced similar issues.
It just happened last night on my 5-day old Nexus. I could not open any of my folders to access apps. As soon as a touched a folder, it briefly showed the animation to open it, and it immediately closed. Whenever I selected a widget or the app drawer, they would immediately close as well. When I attempted to swipe down the notification/quick settings shade, they immediately closed themselves. Turning off the screen resulted in the screen immediately turning back on, albeit locked. I was even having trouble turning the device off because the 'Power Off' menu would disappear right after it popped up. Eventually I was able to time it right and was able to power off. Since I restarted I have not have any issues.
Any idea what gives? I'm unrooted, locked bootloader, everything 100% stock, running MM 6.0.1.
the only explanations i can come up with are:
-accidental touching the area in some way (unlikely)
-getting some substance stuck on the screen in that area (unlikely)
-a faulty touch panel (unlikely and very specific defect)
-a hickup in the software (again unlikely)
then again, if the OS (for whatever reason) thinks the home button is pressed, on default it should not only pull you back to the homescreen, but continue and send you right through to google. the conclusion of which would be, that this UI area is triggered repeatedly rather than continuously.
keep an eye out for what could have triggered it in case it occurs again.
check your settings what build exactly you are running (settings -> about phone -> build number).
ans lastly, if it happens again, you should still be able to hold your power button to hard-reboot it (no further interaction with the UI required).

Try to clean your screen also with a towel
That is extremely weird. It really sounds like a faulty digitizer, but you'd be the first... Maybe it's a rogue app, but unlikely.
Were you doing something before this starts to happen?
I haven't noticed any consistent apps or behaviors when this would occur. This most recent time, I was low on battery (10%) and I had just flipped on my data.
fyi. you could also just press and hold the power button, for 10 secs, for a reboot ( might come in handy when the screen isn't working properly).

appreciate the tip! I'll keep this in mind if it happens again.
Finally was able to capture a video. The issue occurred after I was playing around with Open Camera and it crashed. Holding down the power button didn't work when this glitch is happening.

What's the icon on the lock screen, top right in the status bar? That behavior is unusual if it's not a screen defect. Are you using any apps that monitor battery, a task killer, or maybe a security monitor app?

The icon is a picture for my user profile on the phone.
I don't use anything like that. I had Clean Master installed briefly but it's been uninstalled for a couple of days now.
so it seems like this issue pops up whenever the camera crashes. happens occasionally when using the camera shortcut (double power tap) or in an app that uses the camera.
It's got to be software IMO. It didn't happen when you went to Google Now and your Recent Apps. I'd try uninstalling the Open Camera app first. Do you have Face Unlock active by chance? After that I'd FDR...

right, that's what's confusing me. i did a factory reset last week, set up the phone as a new device. haven't installed a new camera app, just the stock google camera. the issue occurred again last night when using an app called Shopkick, which accesses the camera but crashed.
Hi,
recently I started to use bluetooth because I bought a smart watch which requires bluetooth for smart notifications, ... Its been working great, until one day. Every time I didnt use smartwatch, I turned bluetooth off. And one day I tapped the icon to turn it on, and the bluetooth icon stayed pressed for a 5-6 seconds and then it went back white which means, it did not turn on. I tried everything, reboot, safe mod, recovery mode, force stop, ... Nothing worked. Then I did factory reset, which changed everything and bluetooth started to work again, but not for very long. After 2 days, exactly same thing happend and I have no idea what to do. Im pretty sure its a software problem, but no idea how to solve it. Please any ideas??
Thanks a lot.

Found this on another forum... I had the same problem and it got solved by following this.
What you need to do is clear the Bluetooth Share app cache and data, then perform a Network Settings Reset. I'd recommend doing it in that specific order.
First, open App Manager from Settings menu. Then use the three vertical dots on the top right to open the options. Select "Show System". Scroll to the Bluetooth Share app, and open up it's settings. Tap Storage. Tap Clear Cache, wait a moment, the cache will clear to 12.00KB. Now tap Clear Data.
Next, open the main Android settings again. Go to Backup & Reset, then Network Settings Reset. Tap Reset Settings and enter pin, if prompted. Tap Reset Settings one more time.
After that completes, which should be fairly instantly, try to turn on your Bluetooth. It should turn on! Yahoo! Let me know if this works for you!
Thanks to the original poster (I cannot post links here).
The problem:
I will hit the power button to sleep the device. I have fingerptint/pin set as my lockscreen. My lockscreen wallpaper and home wallpaper are different, so the issue is easy to see. I sleep the device, then anywhere from 1-30 seconds later I hit the button again to wake it. Instead of showing the fingerprint scanner and my lockscreen wallpaper, it shows my home wallpaper, with the small gesture bar at the bottom. There are two ways to get past this, swipe down from the top for the quick tiles and then swipe them back up and the lockscreen wallpeper and fingerprint scanner shows. Or I can hit power to sleep and then power to wake again and my lockscreen is there.
I thought the issue was with the kernel at first because I hadn't noticed it outside of installing it. After flashing to stock kernel I noticed it happening again. It happens once every 5-10 wakes. It's not super annoying, but still annoying.
I have tried backing up and restoring everything from Google One, then rooting, then with and without a custom kernel, still the same issue.
I have also tried backing up and restoring all my data through SwiftBackup. For apps I backup all user app data parts: APKs, Data, Ext. data, Expansion, and Media. (Not sure if I even need to but certain games etc I don't want to lose data). After I restore I use the same Magisk 24000 to patch and flash the boot.img.
No matter what I've tried, the issue still seems to persist. If it helps, I am on Android SP2A.220405.004
If anyone might know what is causing this or how I can fix it, that would be great. Thanks!
