[Q] Desire - refusing to wake up after being locked / screen off.

My Desire sometimes refuses to wake up after being locked, it's never switched off or failed whilst using it, only when left alone. I'll press the power button to wake it and get nothing, only way to recover is a battery pull.
I'm running Cyanogen nightlies. So it's Aosp and no overclocking at all. Recently tried the latest crop of Sense roms all the same symptoms. Might only happen twice a day but that's too much.
I've read a few threads on here but never found any great successes, I've ruled out the battery by changing it, and the SD card by changing it (and even not using one).
Would I gleam much from the logging programs? I assumed if it crashed it wouldn't of logged the problem, if you see what I mean..
Any ideas on things to try would be much appreciated. The phone has never been dropped from any height or otherwise damaged.

Solution on my guide. Deep sleep. I get it sometimes too

..I'm assuming that'd fit in with when I switched from Vodafone to GiffGaff and got a new Sim card? Timing seems to fit too.

It was on 'WCDMA prefered'. Changed it to 'GSM only', as I figure O2's 3G signal is poo, well here it is anyway. I'll keep an eye on it and see how we go.
Thanks again Bortak!

No it's when it switches from HSDPA to 3G to 2G etc... and for some reason it doesn't wake up.. I don't know the details exactly lol.. all I know is it fixes it most of the time lol..

Ah so the phone is at fault, and it just starts doing it one day if you're unlucky?

It's a really grey area for me lol, I haven't looked far enough into it to know for sure. I get the sleep of death in certain locations when I lose signal or it changes from 2G to 3G or whatever (not always).. sometimes I never get it at all, sometimes I do.. It's really strange lol

Yeah thinking about it it's usually at work it happens I think, so it's probably 'location specific'. I'll keep an eye on it anyway.
Thanks again.

OP: Did you tried to sink your Desire into cup of coffee? That should kick it up.

Note 4 Issues?

I currently have an HTC One Max that I will be returning after basically leasing it for a year from Sprint *sigh*. I am interested in picking up the Note 4, and am curious to what issues anyone that currently owns one is having. I have seen reports of GPS issues and dropped calls, so can anyone confirm this or mention any other problems that they may be experiencing. Also interested in the overall experience with the phone, besides few developers. Any input would be appreciated as it will either be this phone or the m9, but I would like to keep a larger screen .
Thanks in advance

A few people saying they've dropped calls doesn't mean anything imo and I haven't read anything about gps problems either. I love my N4. No regrets.

Be aware it's a spark phone so you don't have voice and data simultaneous while on the NOW NETWORK

Yea I know. Something I thought about before getting it. That's one thing I'll miss a lot coming from my s4.

I was reading the dropped calls and GPS issues on Sprint's forums for the phone, but that's why I figured the best place to find out would be here . Thank you for the info.

This is the same with my One Max, which I haven't ran into to many scenarios where its been an issue. Would be nice if Sprint were to fix the problem with voice and data that they created. I have read articles about them rolling out a volte solution in the near future, but I am not holding my breathe.

I've had mine for a week or so now and I've run into several situations where people say they've tried to call me but my phone never rang nor did it notify me that I'd missed a call. Still working on trying to figure out if it's the phone or Sprint or something wonky with the rom I've been running.

No it will not work as I just tried it, so hopefully Sprint fixes this issue sooner or later.

Moto G5 Plus [issues]

Guys I have made this thread specifically to address or review issues we are or will face on our G5 plus.
(OP will be modify accordingly as more issues are found)
First issue.
VoLTE connectivity issues??
Not really sure about these issues but some of the guys are facing weird issues regarding VOLTE when using only one sim on 1st sim slot. Are you guys facing anything like this?
I am referring to this:-https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G5-Moto-G5-Plus/Moto-G5-Plus-VoLTE-issues/m-p/3610582
Solution:-Issue seems to be fix by first inserting any other carrier sim in slot 1 and register it on network than by replacing with JIO.
2nd Issue.
Guys I have come to know that under specific lighting conditions there's some visible horizontal lines all over display is seen for some guys here.

Solution:-???

u mean first before using jio sim i should put any other carrier sim in phone and use it?

Yes when I first booted up my device with Jio Sim it was not showing VoLte but I just gave a reboot. After that VoLte came and everything is working fine.

I received it today morning and For me all thing was normal. Inserted JIO Sim in first slot and Other in 2nd one and VOLTE is there enabled in Network setting by default yeah though there is no icon of VoLTE in the status bar but calls works fine without any issues. So far everything seems to be good.

I didn't get Google Assistant out of the box. I updated the Google App but no luck. So I ended up disabling Google app. I don't really use the app.
And for the bug fix OTA update, it has not yet come for me.

I have the assistant working. Got it after updating the Google app.

I feel that device is getting bit warm while normal tasks and hot while playing games. Is is due to the metal back or my device has issue of that? anybody else having same feeling?

In my case during normal use no issues. Yes during gaming it does get warm but not hot. The temperature always remain around 40°C while gaming. And yes you are correct due metallic back the whole back surface may feel warm since metal dissipate the heat to keep the Cpu cool.
If your device gets temperature around 45°C then its getting heated up.

Yeah... I checked the temp. in CPU-Z app it was around at 39... So it is normal right? Its not issue? Also here in my city it already a very hot environment, so may be due to that I am having that kind of feeling.

Yes bro don't worry it won't be the case as G4+. Don't panic if your device temp goes around 40 the Soc inside is the best midrange all-rounder. Be happy and use it. This device is just awesome and development are gonna come soon, thanks to squid2.

Yeah... I am very happy to have this device as I was on Osprey which is also a great device. I am also more than happy as squid2 is going to buy it and support the development for G5 Plus as well. His work and contribution for osprey is remarkable. Sometime I wish Someday I will also compile a custom ROM successfully and give my contribution to this community.

I didn't noticed such lines. Have to check that in different lighting. I too see these types of line in my moto e(1st gen) but its vertical and no issue. They are only noticed in direct sunlight at an angle.

Poor Reception

Hello,
Is there any modems that I can try loading to improve reception? I had a Moto Z Play before this and got great reception. Now, when I visit my second company site, sometimes I wont get texts or calls for hours because I am not getting reception... In my main company location, I struggle to get reception too, but it works...
Maybe any Rom suggestions that may improve my reception?
Thanks!
Joshua

well i'll go ahead and tell you that Oos will give you slightly better signal than most custom roms (at least in my experience). but thats not saying theres not anything out there that I haven't seen...... but AFAIK no.

Stay on OxygenOS, but you can't do miracles because our op5t is not exactly a champ in signal reception. In my experience it's easily beaten by Xperia xz1 and Galaxy S7, and that is something the "reviewers" forget to mention, though.

Agreed with the latest 2 comments, nothing much you can do, but I've tried several roms, and found out the best experience is yet with OOS roms.

I have T mobile, and a left over Oneplus ONE at home, so I am going to upgrade up to the 6T and sell off this 5T, breaking even... Lol
Such a shame... Thanks for the reply's guys!

Hey All ,
I dont really have bad reception but when my signal drops like gone and I get back into a better area it takes forever to reconnect. Sometimes i just toggle flight mode but it's really annoying . Is this my 5t having a hard time or could it be a carrier thing ? Using O2 in Germany
Thanks

Same here, I feel your pain, my car is parked in my garage where I have no reception at all, every time I get out with my car it takes forever to reconnect and for Waze to find traffic information.
Not your device bro, not your carrier either, just regular OP5T daily issue. Using Orange in France.

Do you have problem with signal on your mate 20?

i did not start the topic .. the thread isnt mine .. check your glasses and stop crying
as to my description of the subject : the signal bar is not a constant thing .. it is variable it differs across place and time .. i used to get full signal all the time on my note 5 but despite this reception was not that good .. on mate 20 i dont get full signal most of the time and hence i wrote 3-5 signals .. but the talk quality is good and no dropped calls or reception .. so i dont know why my comments seems to offend you ?! but i dont care
as to post owner : did you try to fiddle with your network settings and try the 3g network instead and see if that matters ?!
