Anyone else experiencing device freezes that require a battery pull to resolve while using Google Navigation? Screen mostly goes to black with part of the top status bar still visible - like the blue background in windows when you close a program but the comp just hasn't caught up.
I wouldn't say it happens often but it does happen enough. Anyone else seeing this?

Thinking maybe an app issue. Try wiping app data. If that doesn't do it under clock when using nav if you oced

Has happened on mine too, think problem is that nav app is a beta release, blame google for this. Try turning of screen rotation this is what fixed my force close issues.

I'm running serendipity 6.4
Lately my data just randomly stops working. for a while I was turning data off in the extended power menu after browsing or sending mms or using the market. The last few days ive been keeping it on when I'm not using it. it will say it is on on the notification bar but wont receive any data. If i reboot with data enabled it will fix itself but then I get the amazon market error in some apps saying that I have to reinstall the app. Sound like my ip its getting changed our something? What the bleep is going on here?

Swap modems?
I have been seeing this as well. The only time I see it is when I am at work.
I stream Pandora as well as use IM+ alll day at work. Pandora has no issues as it caches data, but I see my IM+ connection resetting every so often. Also occassionally when attempting to access the internet the site will be initially unavailable.
I have tried several modems all with the same result, messed around with my band settings and even reflashed my ROM clearing all caches.
I have been watching for someone else with the same issue. This is the first post I have seen addressing it.
in addition to my data dropping it also happens with my service, seemingly around the same time if not in unison.
To the above poster: are you running serendipity 6.4 on a captivate?
Note: I had been running serendipity 5.x and switched to phoenix ultimate to test it. Had a bunch of problems with it so i switched back to serendipity. my phone hasn't been the same since. Weird random problems like this. I've odin master cleared and reflashed a coupled times but it didn't bring back my first flawless experience with serendipity before trying phoenix. Maybe I should try the stock rom and see if the problem persists..

I am running Phoenix Ultimate and always flash back to stock.
I wonder if phoenix has something to do with it. dont see how that would affect me tho since I'm not using it now. I also flash stock and master clear everytime. I did clear dalvik cache as someone motioned earlier and it hasn't happened yet.

i feel i should also mention that i have been seeing a gray icon in my notif. bar which i believe appears during data sync. its like recycle circle. looks pretty much identical to the reboot icon in the extended power menu. so - maybe i have too many apps and too many of those apps are set to auto sync and when they do it jams my data connection. still doesnt explain the affect on the amazon apps tho. im just rattling things off here to try and figure out whats going on and maybe jog someone elses brain in the process.
I get the sync icon in the notification bar as well. If I refresh gmail it will appear.
I have not heard of any others on the Phoenix ROM having this issue.
I've turned off auto sync in system settings and I haven't had the problem since. Its only been a couple days but so far so good. Still can't figure out why it affects amazon app authentication tho. Only thing I can think of is that with the syncing and data freezing my connection resets and I get assigned a different ip and can no longer validate with amazon.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Still no drops. I'm not having lag issues anymore either. I guess turning off auto sync was the fix. Prolly had a bunch of apps auto-syncing at once.

Well it didn't solve the amazon app force close. Just happened again when I opened gentle alarm.

Ok so i am trying to determine what my problem is.. here are the symptoms. When i try and end a call i sometimes have to press multiple times or deliberately press and hold the end button and sometimes it doesn't respond pretty much at all. Also i am using go launcher and when i press icons that are in the dock bar they have the same issues. I also have similar issues when i text it's really annoying so is anyone else have similar issues?
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Same here. I've noticed that to hang up it takes a deliberate double tap. Also, the screen will sometimes become inoperable requiring a reboot. This has happened three times since first getting it. One note if that out happened twice stock, and once with decrapped 1.1
Any body else seen this?
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA Premium App
I haven't seen it anywhere else, but I have seen the double tap on the end button to end a call. Seems to happen frequently. A "feature?"
Either way, it's annoying.
Running Go Launcher as well.
To me, it seems like it takes the screen a really long time to wake up from being off, in all cases - for example, dial voicemail and put the phone to your ear. When you get the prompt to put in your PIN, take it away and the screen comes on, try to punch the dialpad button immediately and it just won't work. I tried it as I was writing this and had to triple tap the button.
Same thing with the lockscreen (still on the stock lockscreen for now). The screen will wake up and it takes a second or two to even start to register finger swipes. It's really annoying...
Speaking of phone lockup, I received a call a few days ago and the phone froze - I couldn't answer the call, or do anything, all the while the phone just kept ringing. Had to pull the battery. I'm still on the stock ROM.
Me too! I had a call and it froze. Battery pull as well. Also, forgot to mention I am using open home launcher.

Yep it's a bug either in LG's function to turn on and off the screen in Android, or the kernel drivers that enable/disable the touchscreen. There is about a 1 second delay to it.
I discovered this lovely bug while porting the AOSP lockscreen mod.
I'll run some more tests to see whether it's an android bug or a kernel bug. I'm betting it's android (something like the screen being turned on before the touch controller has had time to reinitialize itself, or something more complicated like a race condition of some kind...)
Either way, with cm7 around the corner, I don't think it's that big of a bug

Errrr Are you sure the Revo is getting CyanogenMod 7? Where did you hear this and more importantly when will we get it?

Since he is the one working on getting it ported over, I think he has the best idea, and the only rule of cm is no asking for etas ;-)

Hi, after using my droid 3 for less than a week, I turned it on one time, and it bypassed the lock screen. I see it for a split second, then it goes away w/out me doing anything. This is not good, like if it turns on in my pocket, I'll be doing who know what on my phone... please help as soon as you can. Thanks!
Same issue with mine. I can generally get it to bypass the lockscreen on purpose if I do something weird, like unlock it right after I open the keyboard or play with the volume buttons.
Mine did this so I did a factory reset and I've not had that issue again since. Its been a week.

Does anyone know how to fix w/out a factory reset?
I fixed the problem by changing the value of the Security Lock Timer in Settings > Location & Security
Well I've been running gingervolt on my phone and it has been running fine until now. Today my softkeys won't light up anymore unless I go to settings and click on the screen brightness that's when they come on but once it times out and goes black they won't come back on when I unlock it. Also when I received a call and slide the screen up for some reason I can't hear anything and the phone hangs up. Does anyone know what can I do to fix this issue? Thanks. Version 2.3.4 running gingervolt 1.3

This happened to me the first night gv 1.3 was released. It went away the next day though. Re-flash?
Ok. I will reflash and hopefully that would fix it

This will sound weird but what I do when this happens (usually a restart of device) is bring the phone's screen to my laptop screen momentarily, or just hit it with a beam of light from my 700 lumen flashlight It's quick and easy

haha, very MacGyver...Going into Settings > Display and toggling auto brightness on/off would probably accomplish the same thing.

With everything that you've tried, it's starting to sound like it might be a hardware issue. If that's the case, you might have to send it in to get it fixed.
So should i restore to stock and see if that fixes the problem? I guess either way I need to restore to stock if I need to send it off to get fixed right?

I been trying to figure out if the app is glitchy or the phone is having intermittent problems. I was able to screen capture what I saw. So If anyone can advise anything that be great before I consider making a repair request from Motorola.
Thank You.
Can't tell if we don't know what app you were using or what you were doing when it happened.
If the entire screen was unresponsive and fuzzy I'd say hardware but if it's just the background and not the call notification I'd guess software. Factory reset.
Well when I first got the phone, the bottom navigation bar would flicker while scrolling in chrome browser. Now I get weird distortion on the eBay app. It seems intermittent.
I am sure this is a software bug. I have seen it a few times on 5.0 I never seen this on 4.4.4
Anyhow if it were the screen you wouldn't have been able to capture it on a screen shot

Didn't think about this. He's right. If the screen was the problem the screenshot would look fine.
Good point. Perhaps it is the lollipop bug. That's good to know. Can't wait till 5.1 comes out then . Thank you guys for your replies.
I don't know... I had same problem with one app.. Just one app.. It's a wallpaper app.. Getting rid of the app solved me the problems.. :beer:
