My G4 runs on MM 20D and sometimes I have an issue that the screen turns on again after I lock the phone.
Also the same if i want to turn it on.
It's like I press the lock button twice, but I don't.
Same problem here.i doubt thst its a power button issue.donno exactly.
Have this problem on mine too. Thought it was a sensitive power button but does it when I double tap to sleep also. Do you use lightflow? I found a setting in there that was turning my screen black after I woke it immediately. Almost like the proximity sensor was covered but obviously it wasn't. Got that problem fixed after scouring for solutions but this one still plagues me. I'm on Genisys LP, but had it on MM too ( had to revert cuz random reboots made my phone unstable)

So I have had this pretty serious problem going on with my LCD screen. This problem started happening after I flashed a new ROM (I think).
My LCD screen is working fine, however, after I turn the LCD screen off for the first time after rebooting (by putting it to sleep by using the power button or any other method) the screen will then never come back on. I know the phone is still on because after I press the power button to wake it back up I can still press buttons on the phone and I can hear noise from the phone like I normally would. The phone is on, the LCD just will NOT come back on no matter what I do.
Another weird thing I have noticed is that when I go to adjust the brightness of the phone it does not change the brightness at all even though I am adjusting the slider on the phone.
I have tried about 4 different ROMS (including stock) and they all have the same problem. I tried disabling the light sensor through the advanced configuration tool, but that did not work either.
Does anyone have any clue how to solve this? Thank you.
there was another post about the same issue a couple of days ago, if it wasn't for that i would of said there is a problem with your screen. Go to this thread and read the last post.

Like I said in my post I already did this and it did not work.
I've got a little problem that is draining my battery.
When i press the power button, my screen turns off, but two second later it turns on into the lockscreen.
Already tried a full wipe to look if some app is causing the problem, but nop. it still had the problem.
However the weird thing is that when i use the phone it never turns the screen off. it does sometimes pop up the power menu, but that does not happen often.
I hope someone can help me, because it annoys the heck of off me that i can't even get 7 hours out of my phone w/ minimal use.
Hi,
I started to get a weird problem since last week. I've had this phone for about 3 months now and never had any problem like this.
It all started one morning when I wanted to stop phone alarm. The alarm was going off but the screen was black. I pressed the power button to wake up, but it was still black. After couple of times pressing the power button the screen came up. First it was not that often but the situation started to get worse. It came to that I can sometimes cannot turn it on for a long period of time. I need to keep pressing power button, volume buttons and eventually it will come up.
This is what I've found so far:
1) When the power button is pressed, although the screen doesn't start up, I can see the three buttons at the bottom lighting up. So it is not a problem of the power button.
2) When the power button is pressed, although the screen doesn't power up, the screen seems responsive. I can feel the vibrations when I tap (I have a startup password)
3) When the phone is connected to a power supply, screen always starts up without a problem.
4) Screen will start up more frequently when the batter power is high.
It seems as though there is a connection between batters power and the screen not starting up. But then again, once the screen comes up (after not starting up), then it works fine, until I turn the screen off.
Has anybody experienced anything like this before?
I did a factory reset thinking it might be some application I installed but it didnt help.
I had to send this phone once to repair the speaker and cost more than $80 just for courier. I don't want to spend another to get this fixed.
Thanks.
I have this problem or a problem very close to this. I have a HTC One X (international version). I'm running the latest version and updates and the problem has existed for at least the last two updates.
Android Version 4.1.1
HTC Sense version 4+
Software number 3.18.401.1
I have the screen lock pattern turned on.
Sometimes when I hit the power button, the phone does not turn on and so I press it again and only after a third press does the phone turn on. I then unlock the phone and use as normal. So, several times per day I have to press the power button three times before the phone turns on. But other times I press the power button once and it turns on straight away. I've just turned the pattern unlock off to see if this makes any difference. I'll start to record the exact details of when I experience this and see if we can work out a common cause.
Hopefully if enough people report this problem then they can send out an update to fix this problem.

I'm pretty sure this is a hardware issue. I bought mine from Expansys and sent it back to them for repair. It's been more than a month and they say they're still reparing it.
In my case it was impossible for me to start the screen up with power button no matter how much I pressed it. The only thing that worked for me was to press the back of the phone just below the camera. So it seems like a hardware issue. But on the other hand, at times when I can't get the screen turned on no matter what I do, I'd turn the phone off and start again and the thing would start up like nothing happened. So while I'm pretty sure it is a HW issue, I'm not sure how a power restart makes it work.
For me I don't think that this is a hardware problem as it only started happening once I did the big upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 and then it follows a specific pattern. That is three power button presses will always turn it on. Less frequently I also get a problem where the power button turns on the three lights on the soft buttons but the screen remains black. I then hit the power button to turn it off, and again to turn it on and the phone is back to normal again.
Is yours an international version? I bought mine an international version and had it shipped to Australia.
solved?
Hi - did anyone ever solve this? This is happening to me with my HTC desire X after having had the screen repaired, so I think it is hardware related, but the shop doesn't know how to fix it! My screen also does not turn back on when I want to end a phone call and pull the phone away from my face anymore. These problems seem related as they started at the same time. I would be grateful for help!
Hi guys, I bought a new zenwatch and am experiencing a weird issue. Occasionally, when the watch is in ambient mode, it is not responsive to touch. I turned off wrist gestures to wake up the device, and need to tap it to wake up. Sometimes I tap it and nothing happens at all, it stays in ambient mode. Pressing the power button at the back will wake up the device and it will function normally. It is just slightly annoying to have to press the power button which is on the back a few times a day. Any input to why this might be happening is appreciated.
I have the same problem, but sadly no solution. I've had the watch since Jan and it only recently started doing it, last month or so
At least its good to know I'm not the only one, probably a software bug.
Mine does that occasionally. I find that rotating it back and forth a couple of times (even though Tilt to Wake is switched off) before touching the screen clears it.
Mine did that just a little while ago. I do still have tilt to wake turned on, though, and after waking once that way, it's back to responding to taps now.
Also, selecting a different watchface from the phone seems to clear it.
Pretty sure it has something do to with the latest update. Maybe they are using more aggressive power saving settings on the cpu governor, making it take longer to ramp up clock speed and be responsive.
Hi there,
I bought a new LG G4 and after 2 days it started to work funny. In other words if I wanted to press power button when screen was off it didn't give me any response, but after I took out the battery and put it back the screen goes on and same if I do plug the charger the screen goes on.
- I tried to run phone in safe mode and it works without any issues.
- I done factory reset.
I have marshmallow android version. and also I have tampered screen protector (but remember it works without any problem in safe mode and even though my screen protector was since the first day of the phone I bought)
p.s. just an update just realized it does the same in safe mode...
any help appreciated.
Regards
just a thought,if you press the back button and the screen doesn't turn on,it might be because the sensor is covered(near the front speaker).
I have brand new G4 also. S/N 602. And it does the same thing, it has trouble waking up for some reason every few times. Double tap or power button can't wake it up, only thing that can wake him is double press power button to start camera. Same thing is on Stock and on Cyanogenmod.

Okay, I took off the screen protector and it works fine now.
could be that a protector problem ?
You most probably have a protector that is covering the proximity sensor. That's why the phone did not wake up.
