So I Wiped Then Flashed from CyangenMod 3.6.8.1 to 3.9.7 And went fast and smooth boot slow but expected due to flash .... apps still fully functioned except for power manager full it was force closed at start so uninstalled app and re-installed app ran perfectly fine..... all other process that I had done seem to be working flawlessly ....my main issue as of this moment is something I havent seen before....its when my phone is on standby at this point if my phone is closed and I hit home or menu my screen does not turn on but I can here my selections and my buttons light up so I have to slide my phone open then place it back into standby using power button to then hit home or menu so that my screen turns on .... this is the same to turn on phone if its closed screen is just a black light screen so it must be slid open to see anything on the screen such as the T-mobile G1 bootloader etc.......
anyone know what maybe the problem here?
I can provide a device log to anyone that maybe able to assit me
bump so no one has anyclue as to away to attempt to fix this issue? The problem is that the screen only comes on if I slide the phone open but when slid closed hiting menu or home the display does not come on but you can tell that the phone thinks its on due to the fact and can here my desktop shortcuts click as if I was switching from 1 to another ......... anyone?

Hi I recently updated my stock to sense and afterwards have been noticing that the power button on top of the phone won't turn off the screen. I don't think anything is wrong with the power button because I can still long press and get the menu with power down, airplane mode, etc. I don't think its the sense UI either because it didn't start happening until I started downloading and getting rid of apps for my phone. My screen does still time out BTW and if anyone could help me solve this issue that'd be great

I have the same issue. I am running CM 5.0.6 but I think/suspect beautiful widgets may be at play here but I don't have the time to uninstall and test since I have my screen timeout to 1 minute, I just get by.
Hello,
I was wondering if there is some way to track what is happening on my phone? Since my screen stops working when waked up from standby. i.e. if i press the button at the top to standby and then when i press it again and reach the lock screen the touchscreen is not working, it is simply not registering touch and neither are the 4 small buttons on the bottom (back, settings, home, search). However, the OS in itself is still running as I think since I can still see the time move and if I hold the off button the menu comes up for reboot etc.
Anyone heard of anything like this or any tips how to solve this? I am rooted and running CM6 I think at the moment.
Thank you,
Svarto

so the only way to escape this is by pulling the battery and rebooting? when you do reboot and dont go in standby, the touchscreen works fine?
You can check the issue using logcat and /proc/kmsg.
Also, you can read my threads on the subject, describing the same error with logs, and see if your logs are the same.
I'm currently trying to check if the error repeats itself after full wipe and starting from scratch. In the meantime it didn't show up until I applied a theme, and then after reflashing the ROM it's gone again - I'm still checking, only a day has passed.
Yes, the only solution is to pull out the battery and reboot. Then it works fine and I can go in and out of standby. I havent found a particular pattern to it happening so it is hard to reproduce.
I will have a look at that logcat and your other thread!
Just to guide you - when it happens to me, the phone gets stuck with mmc0 access that receives "CRC error" reply and doesn't go through. Pressing power button for a long time several times and playing with trackball / touching the screen between presses "releases" the "lock", and you'll be able to work with the phone again until you put it to sleep again. If you turn WiFi and BT off and then back on - the problem seems to disappear.
My Fiancee's G1 wont turn on at all,No T-mobile slpash screen or nothing.LED lights turn on and Call,Home,Back and Power buttons light up except for the screen itself her phone wasnt rooted,I have never experienced this before.
Can someone please help?
the phone is not turning on via the power(end) button???
try pressing the camera button and keeping it pressed, also press the power button to enter into hboot mode...if u succeed in entering that mode, the phone is fine, or else it could be bricked.
Try Home+Power see if you can get into recovery mode.
If you can wipe cache data.
Hi everyone, hope it's okay to post this here since this Question relates to mine.
I'm having a trouble like this except instead it's like my backlight went out, it was working fine until my alarm on my phone went off and when I went to turn it off I had to take the battery out of my phone because the screen wasn't pulling up. It flashed basically, so when I put the battery in the screen came on but no backlight. Could it be due to Cyanogen? I'm restoring my backup to see what else could I try?
could u be a bit more specific?phone is working??? calls etc???or are u stuck somewhere????
As I said, the screen came on but no backlight. The phone works fine except for the backlight I'm trying to figure out if it's a hardware issue or a software issue. I don't know how much more specific I can get really except that the only way to see the screen is to hold it at a certain angle so the light hits it just right.
Hi, i've got a problem with the Home and Back buttons. Sometimes when i double-click the home button becomes locked and i have to lock and turn on the screen for it to work
Is this problem normal? I've got a screensave and i don't know if that can cause it
thanks

Take a look at what you installed prior to issue showing up, if it was the screensaver then remove the screensaver to see if the issue goes away. If it did then it is your cause, if not what else did you do the phone. Don't forget to reboot the phone after each step to clear out any caches or residual programs.
Hi,
My note 8's screen got damaged a month ago, but
from past two days the power button seems to be
unresponsive.
I have to press it atleast 10-15 times for my screen
to wake up.
Even if the screen doesnt turn on by a single click,
the usual touchscreen functions still work.
Ex: I can still open the particular app by clicking the screen
on the specific area.
Kindly help.

There's nothing any of us can do to help you when it's a hardware issue like this. You need to open the back of the phone using a heat gun to loosen the glue and then take the power button out and replace it with a new one.. There's nothing else that can be done and I would suggest that you not shut the phone down or let the battery die out because then you may not be able to turn it back on until you get the power button taken care of!

Hi MrMike2182,
Thanks but let me elaborate the issue.
The power button seems to be working fine because it takes approximately 10 to 15 clicks to turn on the screen (sometimes 1 or 2 click)
Let's say that I click the power button and the screen doesn't turn on, the screen functions work fine despite showing black screen.
Ex:
1. If I click on screen location where samsung music is placed and open it, and if I and click on the location of the play button, it plays the music just fine.
2. If I click on the restart button when the screen is black (not turned on), the phone does restart. The Samsung logo lits up just fine. (Mensing to say, the bootup process is not affected)
Also, note that if I successfully manage to turn on the screen after clicking the power button 10-15 times and if I put it to sleep again. I can easily turn on if I click the power button immediately (within the span of 2 seconds).
The problem persists only if the phone is kept I'd for 5 to 10 minutes.

Ok based on what you said now I don't believe there's anything wrong with your power button and when you press it and the screen doesn't turn on, in reality it actually is on and it's possibly damaged which is why you can still use the screen functions with the black screen. Whatever type of damage you say happened to it could be causing the backlight to not work but the screens touch function is fine.. Try rebooting into recovery mode and select to clear the phone's cache only and see if it helped anything.. If it doesn't help anything it's pretty much a screen hardware problem and you'll still have to get into the phone's internals..

Thanks,
Unfortunately, even factory resetting the phone didn't work out.
Anyway, I will take for service.
Hopefully it might resolve the issue

Since the factory reset didn't work, then unfortunately it really is a hardware issue.. I think you need a new screen..
I have the official led cover case, just opening the case will turn the screen on... Just a temp fix until you can get it repaired maybe.
