I have had this phone for a week now and am finding that when I am watching videos in landscape mode that the screen will just suddenly turn black, the only way to get it back is to press the power button but then you notice that the video has continued to play so you have to keep rewinding a bit to see the bit you've missed.
Does anyone else have this problem, and if so is there a fix for this?
It is really annoying as you can imagine!

I was browsing through the forum to see if anyone has a similar problem, but this doesn't appear to be the case.
Since I updated my Note 2 (UAE version) to 4.3, my screen keeps turning off completely randomly (even when in the cradle). It just goes blank. Now - the phone doesn't go to sleep and I know that because if I play video, it still keeps playing (I hear the audio). When the screen goes off, I then need to push power button to turn off the screen and turn it on. If the video is playing, pushing the power button will of course lock the screen, so I actually first need to push home button to get out of the video, then power button to turn off the screen and then power button again to turn it on.
Am I explaining this well? So, the problem is not that the phone goes to standby, the problem is that the screen stops functioning and i need to push power button to put it into standby and then back from standby.
It is completely random - I can sometime work on the phone for hour and nothing will happen, and sometime it will happen after few minutes. It doesn't matter what I am doing, whether playing video, browsing web, checking email etc.
Anyone with a similar problem? Anyone, class, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
I've had my Tmobile G4 for almost 2 weeks now and the screen pixelates every single day. The weird thing is it only happens on the bottom left corner of the screen and the size of the pixelation varies. It happens more often when I'm watching videos or playing games. I'd take a screenshot but it's almost impossible to capture because it happens randomly and so fast that I'd have to hold the power and volume down button before it happens in order to capture it.
Is anyone else experiencing these issues? I prefer trying to fix it than bringing it to the Tmobile store where I'd stand for 10-20 minutes waiting for it to happen so they'll believe me.
On my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4, when I am watching a YouTube video, the app starts lagging and getting really slow, and then the screen turns black. My whole tablet becomes laggy, and then the YouTube app crashes. It doesn't even say "Unfortunately, YouTube has stopped". It just closes and loads up my home screen. One time when this happened, the app was just stuck on the black screen, and it didn't even close. My whole tablet was frozen. Eventually it said "YouTube is not responding. Do you want to close it?", and I tried clicking yes, but the button didn't even change color. Eventually, it said " System process is not responding. Do you want to close it?", which just shows how bad this problem is. When I pressed and held the power button it didn't even bring up the menu that lets you shut down you device. I eventually had to just force restart my tablet by pressing and holding the power button for 8 seconds. This awful glitch mainly happens when I am using double tap to seek, which is a very useful feature, but I want to disable it because it causes this error. Sometimes it happens when I am not even using double tap to seek. This is really annoying and frustrating since I watch YouTube videos on my tablet a lot. I need a solution to this. If anyone could provide me with a working one that would be great.
Is there any difference if it's charging or not?
Change your adreno driver !

So, I'm habitual about turning off my screen. I've noticed that occasionally if I leave the screen on the native messages app, and hit the power button to turn off the screen, it will sometimes trigger a phone call. The only way I can catch it in time is when I feel the phone vibrate.
Has anyone else have this problem? It's driving me a little crazy, because I can't seem to replicate it, it just happens spontaneously.
Not in the few times I tried it. I honestly don't like any of the Samsung built-ins so I only tried the message app for a few days. Like you I do usually hit the power button by habit mostly, but never noticed that.
Hi!
Today i was transferring some video clips from my Red Magic 5g to my laptop. Suddenly my sceen froze and turned black. I disconnected it from the USB cable but i still could hear the phone fan turning. The screen is still black and i have no idea on what to do. I haven't rooted my phone, i only use it to play and record gameplays for my YouTube channel. I hope you guys can have an idea on why this happened and how to fix it. Have a good day!
What happened? Hope you got to resolve the issue.
What I would have done in your place would have been to wait 20-30 minutes if it doesn't revert, press and hold power button till it force-restarts
try to put it to a charger or computer to determine if it hangs or it's status; or just do a hard reboot as Serdang just said and see!
