This issue started about 3 or 4 days ago for the record. I have been trying to find a solution online but I have yet to come across a real solution (other than sending it in to LG for 9 days (completely unacceptable)). It happens whenever I turn the screen off, either through the lock button or the double tap. The screen will power off correctly and then turn itself back on within the next second. If i leave the screen to timeout at 15 sec like I have it set to, the phone will dim and then the screen will close, only for the screen to immediately turn itself right back on. This is killing my battery life and making my phone constantly overheat.
If someone has found a solution please share it with me, I am reaching my wits end

For the past couple days I've been having issues with my power button. It seems that, for about half the day, the power button will not work at all. I can't bring the screen back up or shut the screen off. Also every now and then the power menu that comes up when you hold the button down would just come up by itself. The other half of the day it seems to work just fine. For now I've just set it up so the screen never turns off, but obviously that drains power and will make me butt-dial everybody. I took it into a Sprint store but of course it started working like 10 mins before I got there so all I got was a "failed to reproduce problem" thing. After much haggling on the phone with them today I convinced them to send me a replacement, although it's backordered. Has anyone else had an issue like this with theirs? I searched around and couldn't find much. Does anyone know a way I can lock the screen without turning it off? That would come in handy while I wait for the replacement.
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.
Hello i was wondering why the screen on my galaxy s III T-mobile will just randomly light up and stay lit up until i turn it off. It does this about once every half hour and it is very annoying. Also, whenever i receive a text message, the screen never turns off. And ideas as to why? Thanks
On my vzw version sometimes the screen doesn't shut off unless I press the power key. I had to reboot to resolve the issue. Hasn't happened in a couple days though. I wonder if it's a screen bug.
So.. I was at the bar last night and had a weird issue appear.
Every time I turned on my screen (didn't matter whether I knocked or used the power button) it would flick on then immediately flick back off. I could not get my screen to stay on!
I did this about a dozen times then decided to try a reboot. Once the phone booted back up the screen worked fine again and the issue hasn't returned.
Anyone else have this happen to them? It reminds me of the power button issue I had with my last phone (SG II i727).
Only time my phone does this is when the proximity sensor is covered (thinks the phone is in your pocket.) Not sure what would cause your glitch, but hopefully a first step toward why it happened.
DELETED!
It is happening very often: when I double tap my screen, it wakes up but it takes barely 1-2 secs to shut back off and lock itself... I am having a bad time unlocking my phone now... Any suggestions?
