okay so when my n1 is in sleep, it takes like 3 tries to wake it up. The first time I press the unlock button the unlock screen comes and then goes back to sleep instantly. The second time the lights for the back menu home and search light up and that's it. the third time it works. I'm on froyo. anyone else with this problem?
I have a similar issue.
Sometimes just the capacitive buttons light up and not the screen. I have to make 2 or 3 tries to get it to turn on. Its rare, but its there. It only happened on 2.2.
ok good, me too!
was just looking for this topic.
mine doesnt always turn anything on at all. sometimes the light go on, others nothing. Also trying to turn off the phone is hard as it sleeps straight away with out opening up the power menu.
I have a stock N1, which recently updated to Froyo, with the same problem.
any ideas would be great!
cheers,

Also happens on CM 5.0.7.1.
i think it may be a hardware button issue.
I have tried turning mine off (had to pull the battery out) and then to turn it on.
It should turn on readily as it has nothing to do with the OS at that point.
any ideas?
No HW button issue described. HW button works - if it didn't, lights wouldn't go on. It's a wrong reaction on the button, at least that's what OP describes (and me too).
Your N1's power button is dying, it's a known HARDWARE issue. I experienced all of that what you may think a software bug, nut dear friends, prepare to meet HTC or Google for warranty. My N1's power button is dead, I couldn't swap for a new one because I bought it in my country where no official distributor for N1 yet. Sad!
ps: you may try to search for "N1 power button" and see there are more and more reports about this problem.
I've read more than one or two threads on power button issues, and I know what I'm talking about. My power button DOES power up the phone when the battery is taken off the first shot, it DOES wake the phone from standby, it DOES register long presses - there was even one time when a second press was long, and suddenly the screen woke up with power menu, while the first press left it dark with touch button light going on.
Doesn't look even a bit like HW to me. HW would leave the phone dead, non-responsive to touches, or create a loose touch which would translate into several touches - none of those would EVER turn into a phone being on with screen off, and suddenly snapping back to screen on when the SCREEN is touched several times.
Could be your cpu was too busy to accept any inputs.
I have a thread about it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=692874
Take your time! As for me, I'm using my N1 for 3 months now for the power button to completely dead with everyday use (I didn't use any app to trackball-wake).
As I said, all the things you are yelling I have been through. And I, too, thought it was software problem.
I tried both MCR and Cya with no hope.
Good luck!
ps: One of my friend just told me about his N1's power button issue right after hearing me telling about mine.
This sucks
anyone know where i can buy a new button??
Corrupt SD Card
I had the same issue. I'd press the power button, the bottom four buttons would light up but no screen wake. Only way to get out of it was to pull the battery. It would happen maybe 30-40% of the time. (Nexus One Froyo FRF72)
I think it was due to a corrupt MicroSD card. I recently installed a 32gb card and put some music on it using songbird and possibly didn't safely remove. That's when I started getting issues. Removed the SD card completely and it worked fine. Changed back to the old card and no issues. Then formatted the 32gb and tried again, worked fine. Then I tried to transfer more music, there was an error and I got the same problem. (Cheap ebay card from Hong Kong, that'll teach me).
Anyway, I'd be interested to know if that solved anyone else's problem, because all I see on forums are that it's a faulty power button, but that didn't seem to be the case in my situation.
Cheers,
Dylan

Mine is doing kinda the same weird thing but a little different.
When I push the power button the screen comes on but is unresponsive to touch. If I press the power button again the screen dims and then turns off, the home keys light up and then the trackball glows white. The phone then does not respond to the power button for around 10 secs and repeats this behavior 4 or 5 times until it actually starts working correctly and I can swipe my finger to get to the home screen.
It usually does this after being inactive for a period of time, like after sitting overnight.

i have almost the same issue, although mine happened twice when i was on EPE54B but it's been far more common on FRF91
the only difference is my power will continue to turn the back light on and off no matter if the screen has already timed out or not

I have exactly the same issue. Over in the general forum, there's another thread on this issue. Many, myself included, are reporting that this problem started after the FRF91 update. Can you confirm?

Read again carefully. Are you sure your hardware problem was identical to what the OP described? I've noticed a lot of people with obvious hardware problems (i.e., the power button is completely unresponsive) posting on threads like this when they actually have a different problem. It's very confusing.

I had this problem when I first flashed CM6 yesterday. Even after wiping and reflashing it was the same. Only way to get out of the black screen was to do a soft reset, power + vol down + trackball. I finally found out that my SD card malfunctioned and was corrupt. I tried reformatting the sd card in an microsd card reader but windows said it could not be reformatted. I finally switched back to another microsd card that was working, wipe and reflashed cm6 and the problem went away. Try backing up all the data on your microsd onto your computer then reformat it and wipe then reflash to see if it works
Edit: ughhhh it just happened again, but not as bad as before, turns back on after second try... maybe i didnt press the trackball hard enough
Left my phone plugged in over night like a I always do. Woke up today and tried to turn the screen on but there was nothing. It wouldn't come on. Pressed the power button over and over but nothing. Tried a three finger reboot. Felt it vibrate signalling it rebooted. Still no screen.
Removed my bumper case to make sure I was pressing the button all the way down. Was able to get the little vibrate signal that the power menu prompt popped up but still no screen. Held the power button for 30 seconds. Still nothing.
Finally held down power button + volume up and the device rebooted and the boot animation came up. Screen works fine again.
So I guess the point of this post is to let people know my sets in case the encounter this problem. Hopefully it works for you as well and you don't have to send your device back.

I had a similar situation where I was toggling my nexus 4s brightness settings and when you have it at the darkest setting it is pitch black. Like there's no light on at all. I just had to hit the spot that I did before and bring the light settings back up. So maybe you can boot it up unlock it on the blank screen and two finger pull down and try pressing the light toggle?

it was at ten percent brightness and the screen was completely unresponsive as far as i could tell. doing the power + volume up press made it reboot and return to normal.

Mine did that once too. Exact same thing happened. I was starting to get the feeling in my stomach where my phone had just died and then I hit a random set of buttons and saw the Google logo appear. Must be a software bug.

exactly the same here. felt like i had dropped a baby on it's head haha. i wish i knew a way to figure out what caused it.
My wife and I have been having the same issue, and I'm surprised that there's not more reports of this behavior The worst part is that I use my phone as an alarm, and the alarm won't go off if this happens in the night.
It has happened to me 3 times now, and 2 times in one day for my wife. Holding down the power button for ~20 seconds will cause the reboot, which is the good news. This morning after holding down the power button I noticed the notification light flashing red.
The phone appears to be still on, because if it happens overnight I will still see the white notification light flashing even though the screen won't turn on.
I had this problem on faux123 kernel on the second day after I got my Nexus 4.
Doesn't encounter it on franco.Kernel...
Sleep of death brozillas! Happens to all android phones. Happened to all my phones listed in my signature. You can reboot the device and you should be good. For the dude that's missing his alarm you should do a factory reset if you are stock or if you have root do not set your min cpu values to less than 3xx MHz.

Change chargers, cables. Make sure the charger is 5v 1.2a. Factory reset to stock.
If all that fails, RMA if you can.

I observed the same issue (going to standby, then cannot switch on within an hour) with my [just bought] Nexus 4 (latest 4.2.2 firmware OTA updated, nothing special in setup, second day of use).
Certainly must be difficult to say if it's hardware of software (that is, JB/drivers, since I cannot see how such issue can be caused by any virtual machine application) and when/if the latter will be fixed. I have another such great device already -- ASUS TF700 transformer, with similar "everything works, just reboots occasionally", which I think is enough for me
As with the ASUS Transformer case, I have trouble understanding: if it's the issue with all devices/firmware, although not too frequent -- then why everybody does not complain/return the units massively: the phone is pretty unusable if it cannot be relied upon. If it's just some isolated cases with particular units -- then what happened to QA/testing at LG...
So I guess I am going to return it while I can.
Too bad, good model otherwise, will have to see other phones or wait/observe.
My point is, I understand: fairly new device, can have quite a few faults to be fixed later -- now everybody seem to work that way, for better or worse.
It can have more or less beautiful (or ugly) designs, more or less features, larger or smaller batteries/working time; it can have problems with data connectivity, it can have better or worse browser (or the lack thereof completely). I'm fine with the lack of text reflow in Chrome although that was surprising.
One thing a phone/communicator/PDA absolutely cannot do, provided its battery is not empty, is going into "sleep of death"-like states -- it just cannot serve its purpose then, I cannot see how people sell it at all...
I have had a similar issue before, but i have experienced it when my phone has been through one of 2 sets of scenarios.
1 - It gets really warm and the screen becomes unresponsive, dead if you will. The hard reboot fixes this.
2 - When the signal to my phone is sporadic. An example of this would be my recent trip to London. I was on the underground quite a lot, and I'd lose signal quite often whilst travelling. On a couple of occasions i had to reboot my phone the hard way to get it going again.
Hope this helps?
In my case the device was lying near me on the sofa, the time between its going to standby and my attempt to switch it on was something within 1 hour. Nothing especially intensive had been done before.
BTW, while the phone was in that state, trying to call it resulted in long tones, i.e., apparently the radio/cell was online.
Hope this will help somebody, I returned mine.
Good evening. First post but long time lurker. My N4 is unrooted and on 4.2.2. I'm troubled with this as well especially so when the alarm doesn't ring in the morning after it's crashed overnight and I'm late for work!
Not sure if this is relevant though. I don't listen to music frequently on my N4 but the 3 times it had crashed overnight I had been listening to music before going to bed. Twice using Google music being streamed via my home wifi and once using poweramp with music on internal memory. I remember on 2 occasions the phone feeling rather hot as I was plugging the charger in as I was about to turn in.
I suspect there's a process that's causing the the phone to overload/ overheat and then switch off as a result. Because it's plugged in, it'll just continue to charge overnight and present you with a 100% battery in the morning once you've got it to reset again.
I have also found that doing a soft reset before going to bed prevents this from happening.
Just my observations.
Hi all, I got my Nexus 4 a week ago to replace a broken HTC One X (The cost of repairs was almost equal to the cost of a new Nexus 4). Since I got it, SoD happened twice, both times when I left it to charge overnight. The weird thing is that I have this LED application that blinks the notification light when charging with screen off. When I unplugged the phone, the LED was still blinking as if charging, so the phone is definitely not dead. I will try to set it to day-dream while charging and see if it helps. If it does, it might be considered a way of Google encouraging developers (like myself) to create more daydream apps .
Good morning from beyond the pond,
had the same thing happening as described in the first post solution (pressing POWER+VOL UP) helped to reboot my device.
Only thing that was showing was the led, flashing a blueish white light.
Now runs again on rasbeanjelly. Thanks to OP.
EDIT: since this happened the first time, I thought about what I had altered in my setup.
Only thing that was new was "Greenify". Maybe it sent the APEX launcher into standby?!
Having same problem on my 1 week older n4, my friend having the same problem . only thing in commune we have is the WHATSAPP app that once the phone restart it give a notification that the phone date is wrong,once I look at the date settings yes it is wrong, it says 1970 ,so I have to reset it. It does it every time the problem happens ,can this be a clue???

I'm having similar problems.
The first time I believe it was just an issue of slight overheating. I turned off the screen but left Google Maps running & put it in my bag. It didn't actually turn off, but the screen didn't want to come on when I took it out later. I did notice it was hot, and after it cooled for a couple mins, it worked fine again. I haven't done this again, and so far, so good.
However, now, on occasion the phone won't respond to the power button. I've never had to actually do a reset - it will eventually decide to work after a couple of presses.. but when it does, it will be slow to come on. The screen will be backlit (but black) for a few seconds, then it will load and respond as normal.
Since the light comes on prior to the screen, it seems like a software rather than hardware issue to me. If the screen was damaged, I don't think it would act that way. I don't know phones, but that's my intuition. I'm going to try and remember to turn it off on occasion and see if that helps. I don't think it's been reset since the last push update.
(I'm rooted, but stock)
Hello !
My problem is a bit long to explain, but I'll try to make it short ^^
So, at the beginning, I think the problem is about water resistance, because I put it in water with all the covers closed but when I took it back, the jack's "white thing" turned red and so did the others as well (even if I don't know how it happened).
From that moment, I began to try a lot of things, like charging it, connecting it to the computer, put it in rice during one night, etc... In order to dry it and to see how it's reacting, and here is the differents "states" I noticed:
-when it was charging with the wall charger, the red LED was blinking regularly
-when I connected it to my computer, the red LED turned on, my computer made the connected sound, the LED turned off 2 seconds after, and 10seconds after it went on again with the disconnected sound and the connected sound again and repeating (disconnected - LED on - connected - 2sec - LED off - 10sec)
-it wasn't doing that usually but it did it one time; red LED blinking without any connection to anything ( blinking 2 times every 2 seconds)
-and nothing was happening with the dock
At the moment I'm writing, it's acting a bit different:
-nothing's happening whithout connection
-when charging to the wall charger or the dock, it vibrates 1 time, red LED turning on, waiting 4 seconds, vibrating 3 times pretty fast, then the LED is turning off and it repeats a dozen of seconds right after that. (a bit like that - --- - --- - --- - --- - ---)
-when it's connected to the computer, it's now doing the connected and disconnected sound without stopping just like somebody is playing with the USB
I tried to press any button at any state, but I did'nt noticed anything changing.
I think that's all.
So if you have any idea about what's happening to my phone, please tell me
Thank you !
...
It's water damaged and needs sending for repair. Red LED indicates a hardware error.
There is nothing you can do yourself to repair it.

So, yesterday, I brought it to a repairer but instantly when he saw that the "little squares" were red, he told me that there's nothing to do, end of discussion.
I came back home a bit sad because I knew I had to buy a new phone but then, this morning, I was in a mood like "I don't give a f***" so I put it in charge and I tried hard with the Power Button, and the Vol+/- when suddendly, I saw the screen blinking during one short moment. Then, I tried again and I finally saw the "Charging screen" but the screen was going on and off. I waited a bit and it turned on by itself, and it went until the PIN-code phase but there again, the screen was turning on and off repeatedly, and, trying hard again with the buttons, I managed to go until the homescreen, but seeing the screen turning on and off again with sometimes the menu to power off the phone/restart/etc... I realised that the real problem was about the buttons ! So I turned it off ( trying to press the button rapidly before the screen do it again) and now I finally understood evrything ! When it was doing the strange patterns with the LED and the vibrations, it was because there is some problem in the contact with the buttons (it was turning on and resetting by itself because of this).
Now that we finally know what the problem is, have you got an idea about how to solve it ? Do you think there is still some water around the buttons and that I should try to dry it again (and how in that case ? Rice ? Hair-dryer ?) ? Or will the buttons stay like that even without water remaining ? In that case, do you have any solution ?
Thanks again !
You can buy all the replacement buttons on ebay if you are confident enough, it seems that you're warranty has been voided by the water so that's out of the question. I would suggest buying a new battery at the same time.
replace the battery ..

When going to bed tonight do these steps.
1. Put your phones brightness display on the lowest setting
2. Plug your phone in for an overnight charge, do not "turn off" your phone.
3. Wake up in the morning
4. Click the power button on your HTC ONE M7
Did the screen turn on? Are the Soft Keys the only part that lights up?
I've been able to replicate this problem over and over on 3-4 different HTC ONE M7's. For some reason the phone's display will not turn on in the morning. The only way to get it to is to either hold down the power button for a few seconds and the restart screen will pop-up which activates the screen again. Or, to do a complete restart.
Eventually the screen starts working again like normal after fiddling with it for 15-20 minutes...
I believe this is either a KitKat problem or light sensor problem or both. I do know this issue was never around before the KitKat upgrade months back.

I#ve never run across that problem but I know when I enable "ScreenOn" the screen stays on all night and if I just let my phone sit with screen on (because I fell asleep texting ) the screen will be off in the morning.

with my phone its just a 5 second lag sometimes, and i click the power button again to make sure i clicked it and it instead locks itself back. The third click however, everything works fine.
this has been happening to me for the longest its very irritating, i notice it happens whenever i fall asleep, a nap during the day or when i wake up in the morning its really annoying
Well glad to see I'm not the only one.

Yes I had the same issue as the original post.Long story short I ended up sending the device back. The new one didn't suffer from this problem. This was back in October of 2013.
Same issues, it's probably light sensor:

Nope. I already tried the light sensor calibration trick. It didn't work unfortunately. I ended up swapping out 4-5 HTC ONE's before it worked correctly.
yup, I tried the trick as well a few more times and could not wake the screen either. generally I'm tolerant of stuff like this because I assume it is the byproduct of repeated flashing and combo of mods.. but I I recall this happening quite early on in ownership and now it's back. (was AOSP now Sense base). sigh
Figured I see if anyone else has had this issue. I went for a walk with the dog yesterday, and was listening to music on my Nexus 6 the whole time, and when I got home I couldn't get the screen to turn on. Music was still playing, it was still connected to my G watch, and holding the power button triggered a vibrate when the power menu opens--but the screen was completely black and unlit the whole time.
Had no prior issues, just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. Figuring I'll probably call Motorola as this seems like a hardware issue...
Any suggestions would be well received!
Try holding the power and volume down buttons together and see if the screen will come on when it reboots to the boot loader. Alteratively you could try to power cycle it by holding the power button down for 30 seconds. Hopefully Motorola will also be able to help you.
me too
same exact thing happed to me music pulled out headphones the phone still works but the screen is dead. I can pull to use phone and **** and have the same vibration. holding power for 20 seconds is a no go. tried tons of holding combinations it seems like I can get it to shut off and on may be but it's just not doing a reset that I can tell that reboots the screen.

you had an sod(sleep of death). it sounds much worse than it actually is. its a rather common issue as well(no fix). try using a custom kernel.

so stupid question how do I do that? I've only tried to root a phone once and it was a g1. please provide a link or something i'm pretty techy but am rather upset right now.
Ambient display fault?
Hey, I had the same issue, i switched off the ambient display and after that the problem is solved. Give it a try, it might help. Go to Settings, Display, and turn off the ambient display .
same problem
