I'm not sure if my 2 month old Note has had the following problem since day 1 but it's been doing if for a long time now.
The problem is there with a stock standard rom and any of the other custom roms and kernels that I've tried. I'm currently using Rocketrom with Speedmod kernel. I've also used Checkrom and Abyssnote kernel.
If the Note had been asleep for about 15 minutes or more when I wake it up then try to do anything like opening an app, closing an app that's already open etc there's a 2 to 3 second lag the first time I try to do anything. Everything is then normal until the next time that the Note has been asleep then it's the same story again.
Can anyone give me a clue as to what is going on here? I'm starting to think that it's hardware related, but apart from this problem the Note functions perfectly normally.
Also, if I have a CPU monitor installed, like URsafe CPU Monitor, when the lag is happening the monitor shows that the CPU is working hard.
Help please!!!!!
Does this happen after a complete hard reset with no apps installed?
Does this happen on Stock ROM?
Are you using WiFi?
Sounds like WiFi is sleeping when the screen is off, and either it is trying to connect and/or some app is wildly trying to connect using it.
Try seePU++ can tell you what the most active app is, but IIRC you have to pay for that that feature. There may be others.

Yes, it happens on stock rom with no apps installed. I'm not totally sure what you mean by a complete hard reset. Can you please tell me how I do that? I'm willing to try anything to get rid of this problem.

The problem still happens with WiFi disabled. On top of that it doesn't matter how long I leave it after I wake the phone up till I try to do something like launching an app. The problem is still there the first time I do anything with the phone.
I have rocket rom and sometimes when I turn on the screen the screen wont work. The physical buttons work but the screen is wont respond to touch.
Turning on and off the screen fixes this.
Very annoying.
Makes me appreciate Apple more.

Do a clean stock ROM with no root or anything.
Do a factory reset and erase your USB storage as well (i.e., tick the option when you're factory resetting).
Remove your microSD card.
Now, does the problem still occur? If it does, get your phone exchanged/repaired. It sounds like a hardware problem.
What you are experiencing is perfectly normal.
I'm getting the exact same issue. When the phone is not used for a long period of time, is then unlocked, opening contacts, sms or the menu takes a good 2-3 seconds.
It's really annoying and it's a delay when 'waking up' the phone.
Supposedly this issue should be fixed with Ice Cream Sandwich, so be patient and this bug should soon be gone...

Just not getting that myself. I am not terribly patient, and generally the most I have to wait is a second for an app to respond after waking the phone, and that is not often.
Stock unrooted HK version, never seen anything like that delay, mine works instantly on waking

I dare say this is not normal, the only time there is a delay in opening the dialer/contacts application is when you initially boot the device and have both of those running for the first time subsequent runs have no delay what so ever on my end ( when i still had the note )

If this is normal it's incredibly bad that Samsung would design something like this. The wake up lag is bad enough let alone this. Can't see how it can be normal though. My SGS2 didn't have it and some other users aren't seeing it. I think I'll hang out for ICS and see if it goes away before I take any further action.
Strange issue, seems it occurs for some but not all...
Once again, I unlocked the screen after 2 hours of no use, when pressing contacts, there was a 2 second delay and when attempting to call someone there was a good 2-3 decond delay...

Despite being my first Android device I have come to accept that this is normal for this OS.
Unfortunately I have become a big whiner on this forum because of this same issue.
The day before yesterday there was an update on the kies ,LA4,after updating it felt a bit faster overall but the wake up and the incredibly annoying Contacts lag is still there.
I myself am not any particular OS follower or a fanboy of any certain brand for that matter.
So I'm stuck with Android for the time being, since I don't like both iTunes and izunes dependency, besides no big screens there.
However I suspect that this is an Android thing, as far as I know Android is based on Java and Java is known to be laggy,so until a very powerful CPU is available for mobiles, for me its either live with it or Leave it !! and since there is no alternative for now will wait and see how good ICS does and decide accordingly.
I'm on stock ROM and unrooted.
The Note seems to do this once or twice but when a program/app has been opened once it usually reopens them instantly.
This morning when turning on my Note for the first time, there was a few second delay when attempting to call someone, another delay when opening contacts and another slight delay when viewing sms messages.
However, the second time I attempy to open something it's usually immediately.
There should not be ANY delay when opening programs/apps and Ice Cream Sandwich should fix this wake up issue which some users such as myself am experiencing.
It's a shame, really since I'm getting no other lag/delay. The phone is super fast in every possible way, only sometimes it's a little slow at waking up!!

I can't put my finger on this issue I've been having with my Note.
Don't get me wrong, this device is a godsend!
The problem I've been having is that sometimes when I take my Note out of my pocket and try to press the unlock or menu button it doesn't show anything on the screen. I've read about people having issues with delay before it pops up, but it doesn't pop up even after 10 seconds or a minute, it feels like the device 'hangs' or doesn't want to wake up. The only way I can turn the phone on again is by pressing the unlock button for like 10 seconds and the phone reboots.
I thought it was a problem with Green Power, I thought it maybe had issues turning off the wifi or data when the screen was locked and that the service would cause the OS to crash or 'hang'. When I look at my battery history after the reboot it shows that I lost a significant amount of battery (5-15%, depending on how long it took for me to 'discover' the crash) and there's a 'jump' in the graph.
Things I've tried:
Stock rom - problem persists
Different kernels - tried all the kernels available in the market including stock, problem persists
Add a bit of paper between back-cover and battery (to make sure it doesn't lose contact)
Checked if there was dust between battery connections
Tried different sim card
Tried disabling wifi and data all day (mysteriously persists)
DIfferent governors (ondemand and interactive) (the phone reverts to default governor after the forced reboot, normal? i have my phone set to interactive on boot, but somehow it skips that after the forced reboot)
I've attached a picture of the battery graph. According to the stats there's a 25 minute gap where the phone was 'stuck' and you can see that the screen was on and active for that duration.
There are NO funny apps running in the background, this is is a clean install with some standard Samsung apps frozen.
tl;dr version: phone randomly won't wake up; battery loss after forced reboot;
I might have found the issue myself. Now when I come to think of it, I think it always occurs after I've been in my car for like a 30 min drive... Maybe the phone is having trouble switching networks? Anyone know what might be causing this?
Or better yet, how can I research this issue? Can I enable some logging somewhere to track this?
I had the note for about 10 days and today, about 1 hour ago it happened to me for the first time. I tried the home button to wake the screen but nothing, tried the power , nothing and holding the power but nothing happened. I had to pull the battery.
I had this problem in the beginning, but no more.
It's one of two things, in my case. Restoring apps (with data) from Titaium backup, or SetCPU or both. Do a factory reset, reinstall apps without data. If using setCPU, disable it for a while to see if it happens again. It's been over a week and the problem is gone.

I was using System Tuner instead of SetCPU to freeze apps and change governor, maybe I've just been using the wrong app? I deleted it just in case. Will see if the problem persists, thanks!
The nasty thing about it is that it seems to happen randomly (but it most likely doesn't) and is pretty rare (happens once every 3 days).
Still, I don't like the fact of not being available for X amount of time, even if it's 30 minutes.
I'm on stock room and unrooted. Like I said first time it's happened.
i've had the GNote since 4 days now , and yesterday same thing happened as the device was in my pocket and i couldnt wake it up at all , battery pull solved it.
im on stock , non rooted
I can't believe that we are the only ones with this issue. Anyone else? OR better yet, how did you resolve it?
Dont know if this is the same issue as the streak had, but with the streak if you kept it your pocket with the screen facing your body this would sometimes happen. Flipping it so that it that the screen doesnt face your body in your pocket solved this issue.

Thanks for your reply. I did some research, and apparently it had to do with static being built up in the screen from wearing it towards your body in your pocket.
This issue was that you couldn't swipe the lockscreen cause the touch screen wouldn't respond. The problem we are having is that the screen won't even turn on and that the system locks up.
Same issue here with my 2 days old Galaxy Note, that's how I found this forum. In my case it went from not waking up occasionally to every time WIFI was ON (I did some experimenting with settings to see which one could be the one causing the problem). But then...occasionally it would not wake up even with WIFI OFF: very annoying. And this is my first Android, so I didn't have any custom anything, pretty much same as out of the box when I got it The only solution was to reset the handset. And definitely has nothing to do with having it in my pocket as I don't carry it in my pocket. Rang Samsung, they told me it was faulty, I returned it. Now I'm concern the next one is going to have screen issues? As so many people complain in this forum? we'll see.
My issues have been resolved after flashing AbyssNote 1.4 and when I stopped using System Tuner. I've started using Voltage Control instead and now I'm not even having problem @ 100Mhz undervolted 50mV from stock.
Same problem with my wife's Gnote, totally stock, just a small handful of apps installed. Happened twice, about a week apart.
She does a lot of travelling, maybe you're right about that. But it happens after she gets home when it's still OK.
Had the same same issue twice in two days and had to do a battery pull, just did a master reset and re -installed the applications manually, so far so go.
YOu guys think its a hardware or a software issue?
Hmm.. Happened to me too about three times in the last two weeks. I am on stock rom but rooted, and running Green Power. Hopefully samsung will fix it in the next updates. Seems like a software bug to me. Maybe not enough juice when in deep sleep?

It's very well possible that the stock kernel has faulty settings for the CPU. Haven't had the problem again with AbyssNote 1.4 and Voltage Control (even with custom cpu frequencies)

at this point we're just guessing, there haven't been any official confirmations of the problem as far as i know.
But if it's so accute that it keeps happening all the time you must have a faulty device.. call samsung ?
My Note has started crashing regurlaly, I have had it since release and have a lot of software on it. I am not sure when it started happening but it is definatley getting worse as time goes on.
Is there any log file or event browser that can be installed to tell me what is causing the problem?
When I say crashing I mean literally crashing dead not a force close. I either find it in my pocket turned off and then have to hold the power button for an age to turn it on or sometimes it is sat on the desk and I suddenly hear the noise it makes when it re boots.
Any suggestions for finding out what the problem is that don't involve uninstalling software until the problem goes away?!
Thanks
Have you tried better battery stats? It gives a list of processes that have been running.
Definitely strange - do you have an anti-virus program you can run to see if it can help?
That sounds like a Sod (Sleep of Death) issue that's been reported many times b0t with no definitive solution of yet..
Some said changing modem helped, others with changing kernel or even ROM but no consistent solution across all users
Try to fix permissions through advenced menu in recovery but am afraid there is not much I can help with

Please post your current configuration Kernel, Anti Virus program if any, undervolting, overclocking ?
By any chance are you using easy task killer... if you are just change the auto optimize to nothing - I did that and it stopped sleeping...if your problem is persisting then you could just do a factory reset and use default settings...

However this is ironic because when ever i put my mobile in charging mood than i have no problems at all.

Hey guys, so I got my Pebble a few days ago and I noticed a weird glitch that has happened to me everyday where the text would randomly get really small on the watch face and any notification. I think it might have to do with Glance, because Glance seems to freeze up when this happens and eventually reboots. The text goes back to normal after this. This isn't a huge problem since it reboots very quickly, but I was just curious if there might be a fix Thanks.
So, this bug is occurring almost everyday. Again, it reboots in literally 2 seconds so it's not a huge deal, but I was just curious if anyone else had the problem. I took a picture when it happened, it's not very clear. Basically, the text gets very small and then if I go into Glance, I see this http://imgur.com/CP3dTa3. Half the screen is black and then right after I try to scroll within the screen it reboots and then it's fine for a day or so. I think it's most likely a problem with glance but I'm not sure.

That's a bug with pebble and 3rd party apps. I've noticed it with other 3rd party apps other then glance.
I have to notice that on pebble after a factory reset and no 3rd party app.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
The small print means that the Pebble is running out of memory, usually caused by third party apps. Glance has this problem and that's the reason I don't use it. With 2.x firmware I haven't had the issue, but still not using Glance, so i don't know if the problem is solved

Hello
Ive had numerous problems while i was on KK 4.4.2 .681 and .757 with freezeing phone, random reboots(usually once a day) and touch screen issues.
I have asked alot here and over at Sonys support forum and ppl began to point out that i could very well have a hardware problem. Although the problems i have had on KK wasnt that odd. Since ive read about others having theese problems.
But early monday morning i thought that hmm why not try what a dude here suggested. Wipe the phone completley with cache, dalvik cache and all that and flash the latest 4.3 firmware with JB. Hmm oki well i did that, and so far i havent had any reboots, or any freezes. Camera is QUICK and takes better pictures. At some point i thought the touch was acting weird but that could just be the app itself freaking out, it was only for a few seconds and after that everything was working like it should. Battery time is better aswell(although it goes down to 75% quite fast but after that its slooooow).
So do you still think i might have hardware issues ? I was about to ship my phone back to China but now it feels like it is pure software issues. And i have had big troubles with the retailer to accept this as a warranty matter since he belives its a software issue.
But then again, my phone aint operating good at all with KK 4.4.2
So far everything is fine with the phone, missing some stuff from KK but not the end of the world. But im still testing. If it will remain on without a freeze until the end of the week i could be quite certain that it is KK that ****s up my phone totally.
Please respond with thoughts.
Who told you to wipe your phone? ..lol..
Just my thoughts about touch screen, I replaced 2 days ago my "lucid" classic transparent screen protector with one Anti-Glare, which is not lucid glass like many but is rough and it influence a little little bit on the visualization of the screen, tiny, tiny thing but the touch screen is much much more responsive.
Classic issue with touch screen, unlock with patterns, with the lucid screen protector sometimes it skipped the touch and I had to try 2 times to unlock the phone if the phone was put on the table without hold it. With the new screen protector it not skip anything.
Sometime a stupid thing can be the issue.
Could be the screen protector, remember the first one I had was a antiglare, and as far as I remember I didn't have those issues then. Now I have ultraclear one. Could be that, you never know. I do have tempered glass one wich I haven't used.
Just before the phone actually froze for a few seconds just when I took a picture, but it came back with no reboot. And I got a msg on WhatsApp and messenger at the same time so that could be what was causing the lag this time. Hopefully

Still no reboot! Used camera alot and done all sorts of stuff.
And today I changed my screenprotector to see if that would rectify the touchscreen issue. I used a tempered glass screen protector. O my god how much better that protector feels! But still testing for any issues

Some updates.
No random reboots!
But two other odd things occurred and one of them is known.
1. Touchscreen went crazy, it didn't press what I wanted and so on. I noticed it actually swiped on the keyboard. Turned that function off and unistalled the app "Color notes". Touch screen bugs are known and Sony even admitted it so.
2. I couldn't send sms today, tried to several but got error. Data and so on still worked. Restarted the phone and then it worked again (might just be coincidence). Although I noticed that it at some point it had trouble sending data, took forever to get connection even though I had 3-4 pins reception. Also noticed when that sms bug occurred that it switched from 2 pins to full every time I opened the sms to send.
But still no reboots. These things maybe would trigger reboots with kitkat, I dunno.

I have it all the time, I mean not the touch screen going crazy but the swipe one on keyboard, it happen always when I click on the letter A on left side, it really piss me off.
I think I have to turn off the swipe thing too.
Ye I've read about ppl having issues like we do and they just turned it off and then it works. Sony said they would fix the touchscreen issues in updates but still not fixed.
Btw, have you noticed that the "swipe" to turn off the alarm clock is less sensitive? It takes some trys to swipe to turn it off. Although it is a good thing because it makes me pissed and I have to concentrate to turn it off wich makes me to get up Might be an intended "bug".

Well that Alarm swipe might not be a bug actually, ive tried it back and forth and if you "lazy" swipe it fast like you would when it rings in the morning it wont turn off. But if you do apply pressure and swipe slow it will turn off. Not a huge problem for me since it actually help me getting out of bed

Running latest stock firmware and at least once a day my phone reboots automatically. Auto restart is turned off. I have it on the table and next thing it just reboots. One time this week it turned off completely. Has anyone else experienced this and or know of a solution? Thanks
I cannot confirm anything you describe. It's either caused by a bad or disabled application or possibly faulty hardware. Test your phone at Safe Mode to see if the restarts stop. If so, you need to find out which app is causing it.

Running latest stock firmware and at least once a day my phone reboots automatically. Auto restart is turned off. I have it on the table and next thing it just reboots. One time this week it turned off completely. Has anyone else experienced this and or know of a solution? Thanks

Can confirm. It happens to me as well. Not everyday. It is completely random. Happened twice today. After I charged it. Don't know if charging it is connected somehow to the issue. Every android phone I buy just has some odd quirks. No more. After this one I'm done. You barely see any problems like this with an iPhone.

You using a SD card? If so try pulling it.
If you did any firmware update flashes since getting it, factory reset.
At least clear the system cache...
A hard reset may also get it.

Then check your Android System WebView version according this article:
Here's how to fix those mysterious Android WebView crashes

Thanks to all for the replies. Something i have noticed (and i hope i don't jinx myself now) is that since i turned off the "auto optimise daily" feature, i haven't had a single reboot or power off.

Yeah leave that junk turned off... power management is known to cause erratic behavior as well.
How it's going with the random reboots? Do you still have a problem or turning off "auto optimise daily" fixed it?

This is not normal behavior.
If it's under warranty now might be the time... at least get the documentation started.
Have you cleared the system cache?
Try in Safe Mode as pointed it maybe a 3rd party apk; power management apps and 3rd party launchers are prime candidates. Anything that runs in the background when the screen is off.
Factory reset time...
If that doesn't get try replacing the sim card and removing the SD card if any.
If you still can't find it try reflashing the firmware.
It maybe a hardware failure... and intermittent ones can be the hardest to track down.

I think it actually turned out to be Nova launcher causing the problem. I uninstalled it and turned back on auto optimise on Saturday and i haven't had a reboot since.

Nova launcher premium or free and what version?
I'm using Nova Prime, I haven't noticed any reboots but there has been occasions where the fingerprint scanner was switched back to code unlock like it had just booted up. I'll check up time if it happens again.
Latest free from Play store. 6.2.18.
I might try amd reinstall it later to see if the issue reoccurs, but there has been no reboots since i uninstalled it thankfully.

This is normal security behaviour in Android and it happens every few days. It has nothing common with used launcher.

Ok, was it configured from scratch or via imported configuration from previous phone?

Might want to quit while you're ahead. A buggy 3rd party launcher is a sure fire way to crash and burn a Android OS. Boot looped twice by one on my stock Note 10+.
Take any noticable instability seriously...

No doubt you're absolutely right about that, but on the other hand, with the Nova launcher, it's not normal behavior. Nova is rock solid, I've used it for years on various devices, and there's never been a problem.

While I found that it's not better than the native One UI launcher, Nova Launcher didn't boot loop my 10+ into oblivion... lol, a definite plus.
What I found was it was slower and that I lost some features I liked with One UI. It used a lot more battery but some of that was due to tweaking it, but even when I wasn't adjusting it's settings it's battery usage was high. One UI unlike some of Sammy's past launchers is a fast and very stable launcher... hard to beat.
Samsung's are very customizable in their stock configuration, other makes not near as much so.
So yeah I get why you might want use a 3rd party launcher and Nova is at the top of the candidates. Not being at the mercy of every new flavor of OS and native launcher is also more harmonious and productive... so yeah, I get it.
I don't use Nova launcher and I have random reboots. What I' ve noticed is that the reboots were happening when I wasn't using the phone for a while. Also when the phone turned back on an application was active in notification curtain. In the beginning it was TuneIn although I had it force stopped from settings everytime I was using it. After I uninstalled it I didn't had any incident for quite a while. Two days ago I had a lot of reboots in a day. The app working after the reboots was always Samsung Accessory Service, I have Galaxy Watch 3 also. My guess is that the UI is trying to kill an app and it crashes. When I find some time I 'll try a factory reset with fresh install cause my current set up is based on settings from my previous phone (LH V30).
