I was suppose to do a hard reset but it wont let me turn of the phone. First the phone was empty for battery. After awhile it just started by it self and now im at lock screen and cant turn it off. in the notification bar on top there is a keylock thats closed. Anyone know what i can do?

cheers, ill try that.
Hey,
Theres a thread about this, but I cant find it, even searched for it, so here it comes again:
When I make a phone call, the screen flashes on and off (lights on the keys aswell go on and off) - This is annoying because the screen doesnt respond when its off, and just flashes on and off until your about half a minute into the call.
This means touchtone services and ending short calls may be a pain sometimes.
Any solution?
Thanks
The screen will go black when up against you and then back to normal when moved away, it has a light sensorbuilt in.
Im still trying to figure out whats going on with my TP2. all the stuff ive read says turn auto light adjust off. done. could be a hardware problem with the light sensor.. not sure it worked day before yesterday. task 29 and flashed two different rom. flashed htc's newest radio Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.27 and Energy.RHODIUM.29017.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Mar.21 (which the my location and weather isnt working for me) still the same problem with the screen not waking up. went through the reg and found the proximinty senors light control made sure they were set to 0. i havent tried holding it up to a bright light yet.. but after it sleeps or a call comes in and when going to end the call you can barley make out the end call and keypad buttons if im out side. Please someone help me with this or maybe someone can at least tell me whats wrong.. ive been up all night and day reading trying to fix this. how could the light sensor go out all the sudden? but before the screen sleeps it works fine.. im confused
Reseat your stylus.
I had the same prob come up. I had the auto brightness 'on' since I had this rom. I turned it 'off' and set the brightness to 30%. Then the problem started happening. I turned the auto back 'on'. Didn't work. Turned auto 'off' and set bright to 100%. Didn't work. Turned auto back 'on'. Started pressing sleep button repeatedly while slipping out the stylus.
All the steps were done with soft resetting the phone following the auto 'on'/'off'.
Found this out by accident.
Same rom as you too.
I have to slip out the stylus to get it back on somethimes
I am having the same problem! I was hoping for a registry fix.. The only thing I can do to get my screen back once its off is to pull the battery.. thats a pain in butt!
I have done a factory reset, the stylus thing and nothing works so far.
Please Help us if anyone has the answer or a registry tweak for us!
Thanks
1.If you slide your screen up, does it come on?
2.If you slowly slide your screen up while repeatedly pressing the power button, does it come on?
Mine just started having this same problem too. ^#2 works for me.
Nothing Works
Nothing works for me..
I have to pull the battery and and set the phone to leave the light on all the time..
Then if the phone rings the light goes out, I cant see who is calling and have to pull the battery again..
Sure hope someone knows a registry fix soon.. its driving me nuts!
Nope none of that works. pull out stylus the call keys come on but no screen. slid the keyboard out the keyboard lights come on but no screen... guess im just gonna run andriod untill they get the nand booting fully functional with GSM. to hell with windows.. not only mobile windows has always been crap!
I had the same problem, it was caused by a third party software (last version of FreeOTFE4PDA). Before giving up, try a hard reset and install third party software after a few days.
This problem started back up for me. Guess I'll be flashing again.
Seems like it's a problem with the latest NRG roms. This started happening with the last two and I haven't installed any extra programs.
OK guys, here is a official fix for SoD that I have prepared for ya.

Still Didnt Work
Thanks so much for trying with that fix.
I have tried your fix twice, hard booted twice.. nothing seems to work on 6.5..
I can boot over to android and the back light comes back on.. its crazy that I cant
get it to wake up in winmo! Please let me know if there is a registry fix that Im not
seeing??
Thanks so much..
So I've searched everywhere and I haven't seen anything for this issue. Even though all the settings are correct and i have vibrate checked in the messages app, my phone won't vibrate for notifications like text messages all the time. Sometimes it will vibrate and sometimes it won't. So my phone will be in my pocket and I'll check it 30 minutes later and see 3 or 4 texts but it never vibrated. I exchanged my phone and am having the same issues. Everything is stock. Has anyone had this problem?
the phone vibrates, it just does it too softly for you to feel it... that's the problem with light phones, the original epic 4g could cause an earthquake but that's because it was gigantic, I never felt the epic 4g touch, and this one I feel it at times...

no it definitely doesn't vibrate. I've set it on the table and texted it and it'll vibrate on every 10th text or so. usually it'll just light up for the notification but it won't vibrate.

menu/settings/sound...........make sure sound and vibration are checked. that is the default for the entire phone even if vibration is enabled in messaging. also make sure your vibration intensity is all the way up.

Yes that's already been checked and vibration intensity is all the way up. The phone does vibrate on some texts, but not most, which is what the problem is.
I've noticed it'll vibrate normally when the screen is on and I get a text, but it won't when the screen is off?
I've definitely seen bugs in phones in which things like notification LEDs didn't work when the phone was in sleep mode. Whaddya know, I recall one of them being a Samsung (Intrepid). Granted it was years ago and Windows Mobile 6.5, but whoever was coding notification and power management back then wasn't fully aware of the point of "notifications".
Then again I just sent myself a test to the Note 2 while the screen was off... phone vibrated, screen turned on briefly (I hate that), blue light started blinking, heard my notification sound, and screen turned back off.
So there's something interfering with your phone's ability to wake up while it is trying to notify you. Have you done any power management modifications or installed anything designed to save battery power?

I haven't changed any power management settings or downloaded any apps designed to save power. I've tried factory resets several times. The phone will vibrate for texts but after about 30 minutes or so goes back to not vibrating. I've called samsung and taken it to the sprint store and no one can figure it out. I first thought the motions was causing te problems but it still doesn't vibrate when those are off. I'm completely out of ideas.
EDIT: I may have figured it out, if I turn on "Wake up in lock screen" in the settings in S Voice, the phone stops vibrating on texts. When I turn it off, the phone vibrates again. Toggled it on and off and the changes were immediate. Does anyone else have this problem??
Hello.
When i have my smart stay enabled, and when i, for example, leave my phone on table beside me, not looking at it at all, screen is not turning off.. I have my screen timeout set to 30 seconds, and it is not turning off when i have smart stay enabled... Sometimes it turns off,and sometimes not.. I really like smart stay, and i dont want to turn it off, but im irritated because sometimes i just forget to push power button to turn screen off, and it stays on...
Any one got same problem or solution for this ?
You need to turn it off manually sometimes. Smart stay works so well that it will stay on in my truck at the lock screen even with sunglasses on. Small nuisance for how well it works when there is enough light. Doesn't bother me at all.
