Anyone notice that sometimes if you set an alarm, it will glitch, and if you press snooze, it will randomly set off again, but with two alarms, slightly offset?
Trying to figure out how to explain it. I'll press snooze, then randomly within the next ten minutes itll go off. But one alarm won't go off, itll be two. On will start, then another will follow within a fraction of a second, and both will play.

Never seen [heard] this, but I only have one alarm set at a time. What times are your alarms set for?
I have something similar to this going on...
I have 3 Alarms Set for every weekday.
4:25PM, 6:25PM and 8:55PM these are my breaktimes at work and if I don't have an alarm I tend to work through my breaks which the union gets their panties in a bunch about.
So my issue is that the 4:25 Alarm goes off 3-5 times at once. As if the alarm is duplicated, I have cleared out all alarms rebooted the phone re-created the alarms and this is still happening. running 8107 on my Focus S this never happened on my SGH-i917.... wierd bug. I have to hit "Dismiss" like 10 times to get the alarm to shut off.

The screen keeps blinking back to full brightness, every 30 seconds or so, when it is left alone and the screen dims normally. It is as if something is pressing a button or touching the screen.
When I press the power button and send it to suspend mode, the backlight goes off, and the tilt no longer responds to touch or button pressing. For some reason it pops itself out of suspend and turns back on every couple minutes. My battery life is going down extremely fast. 100% to 40% in three hours.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I searched the forum but never found a specific topic for this issue.

I have the same problem w
th the backlight comming on by itself & battery life depletes extremely fast. I am using HD 15 Nov with 3.29.
In addition to backlight issue my hardware keys are no longer working.
Please has anyone got any advice
i have the same problem. the only thing that seems to work is doing the keypad lock and putting it to sleep. it will occasionally blink like its trying to come back on but doesnt. another thing i did is put my phone in flight mode, locking the keypad and putting it to sleep. when i do that it doesnt blink or anything. sadly i wont receive phone calls or emails and texts. i think the blinking has something to do with phone signal and accessing the networks.
hth
also i noticed that it wakes from sleep when the keypad "unlock" screen pops up.
i think i found a fix
Ok I hope this helps for you because it seems to work for me. I first went to start/settings/sounds & notifications. Then I clicked on the notification tab and unchecked everything leaving only the ringer on for when calls come in. when I did that, for about 5 minutes (longest I tested it at) the phone did not turn on and the backlight didn’t do that weird grayish flash thing. Afterwords I at first was going to go down the list of all notifications and turn things on/off to see what wakes up my phone but i got too lazy and only checked one setting. One thing I noticed is that when I have the beam: autorecieved notification turned on for display a message on the screen I get that weird backlight flickering thing. So for now I just have sound alerts on when I receive any type of messages and a sound alert for reminders. So far so good, my phone hasn’t woken from sleep in 20 minutes.
Hey everyone. To start off I am running Cyanogens 4.2.14.1 and AmonRAs recovery. I have been using it since it came out and have had no problems until a day or so ago. I haven't installed any other applications I can think of that would cause this. My phone will not vibrate on a notification. When I click the volume down button to vibrate it gives me a little kick to tell me I am there and when I long press the screen it kicks as well but no notifications cause a vibration. If I turn the ringer up it rings still. Even when I go to test notification it doesn't vibrate. What is going on?
Thanks for any help,
Brad
This happened to me a few weeks ago and I used an app called "Timed Profiles", set it go on vibrate after 1 minute and it should fix itself.
Hey,
I have a Bell SGS, totally stock. It's suddenly become incredibly slow.
I haven't installed any new apps recently, or changed any settings.
When I press an icon, any icon here is what happens:
- I put my finger on the icon and let go, nothing happens for 2 seconds.
- The icon goes 'dark' like it is being depressed, stays that way for about 3 seconds
- The icon finally gets 'clicked' and I get the 'ding' sound
- The screen goes black with only status bar for about 5 seconds
- finally the app will show up, but if I press anything, it is unresponsive
- the app will become responsive after about 5 more seconds
- If I click a text box (like in stock messaging app), it freezes for another 4-5 seconds, the keyboard doesn't come up
- Finally the keyboard will come up.
ALSO:
- The phone app takes ages to launch.
- Anytime there is a screen to scroll, the scrolling is unresponsive for the first few seconds, its painful
- pressing the home button takes ages to bring me to home screen
- Often the phone just locks up and I can't turn the screen on, have to do a battery pull (once a day or so), I can't figure out what is causing it.
There are no apps running while this is happening, I looked at all running processes and everything seems normal, nothing hogging CPU.
Reboots don't fix it, it comes back just as slow
All the haptic feedback is way late, sometimes the little buzzes get queued up, so it wont do anything, then all of a sudden it will buzz 10 times in a row as it catches up with the button presses
Samsung email (which I use because I like how it handles multiple accounts) is the slowest program in the phone. When it loads up, I click on one of my accounts, it takes literally 30 seconds to load the messages. Then I still can't scroll for another 10 seconds, its agonizing. Switch to the other account? Another 30 seconds. Both accounts are set to keep emails from the last 14 days (not that much).
So, what the hell is going on? I took it to the Bell store, and even with the stupid warranty, they said "well, its still working, so theres nothing we can do"
I leave my phone on during the night for the alarm. Sometimes when I wake up and the alarm goes off I turn off the alarm and when I go to unlock the screen it shows the message saying that the phone has been restarted and I need to enter my password (I have the fingerprint unlock so it happens every time you restart the phone). Today I woke up at 6:04am (before the alarm went off) and I checked my phone to see the time before going back to sleep and the message wasn't there. I went back to sleep, my alarm went off at 6:55am and I turned it off. When I go to unlock my phone the message pops up. I don't know if it's an alarm thing or if the phone randomly restarts while I sleep. I attached a picture of the battery usage and I'm not sure what the huge gap in the middle means or if it helps. Thanks.

So that huge gap means it's rebooting? If it is, then that's a long time it's off then. I've recently flashed stock EPG2 and factory reset. I'll try doing the factory reset again tomorrow when I have more time.
I have these issues when SYESTEM UI automatically restarts. I'm just too lazy to backup and factory reset the phone, so I've just been living with the issue.
I'm not sure exactly when this started but I'd say within the last month. When the phone is on idle (screen black), the internet is being timed-out.
Example 1: I leave my phone on the desk and I haven't gotten any messages on say WhatsApp / Messenger. When I press the power button to unlock the phone, I can have like 10+ messages coming.
Example 2: I'm again having the phone on the desk but I'm in a WhatsApp call, suddenly the call drops and tries to reconnect, as if someone lost connection. The moment I press my power button the call comes back (so it's obviously on my end). Happens with multiple people as well.
Any ideas what could be causing this? I'd say it happens after about 30min or so of "idle time" but I haven't properly timed it.
Latest Firmware and Android 10, if that's important.
I did some obervation today. It seems the timeout happens exactly after 15 min, on the second. Was in a call and the first was 15:15 into the call and the second was at 30:30.
