[Q] Home screen folders not opening - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if anyone was having a problem where randomly a folder will lock up on a home screen and you click on it and it doesn't open up. The only way to get it back is to restart your phone does anyone know why this happens?

Devicelock without return to Today screen?

tI use the standard device lock that comes with WM.
However, it goes back to Today screen everytime after lock.
Can anyone tell me how to stay at the original screen after lock?
Thanks
HTC's LongPressEndKey
go to Settings/System/HTC LongPressEndKey...
i don't know how you can make it stay at the original screen: since WM5, afaik locking has taken you back to the home screen
When I want to lock the device I just give a short press of the button on the top - that switched the device into sleep mode, the screen goes off and all the keys lock. To do that go into settings/keylock and then choose under "when device is off" "lock all buttons except power button".
One short press again on the top button then wakes it up and switches it on and it comes back to the screen you were last in when you switched it off.
Is that what you want?

It's not really locked is it? You turn the phone on and it works as normal. Similarly with the screen lock, you just push 'unlock' that appears on the screen and it works as normal. What I need is the device lock as found in settings. I just need it on an icon in my programs list would be good enough.

You can try StylusLockPro special designed for locking/unlocking while a running application is active.

Problem with phone on standby

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?

Screen not timing out after 4.0.4

Hi since upgrading to 4.0.4 my screen doesn't turn off by itself, have to press the power button. In settings it says 15 seconds to time out, but ive tried all of them and none of them are working. Anyone know of a way to find out whats happening?
there must be an app running in the background that is forcing the screen to be constantly on? did you try uninstalling your apps to test?
Cheers, not sure what was causing it but forgot about trying a phone reboot and that seemed to sort it out.

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.
