Anyone else seeing really odd issues on the moto x (4.4 moto release, no root or hack or anything) after installing skype? There are two things that are driving me nuts...
Half the time I try and drag the notification bar down the screen gets blanked and comes back when i remove my finger
When I place the phone face down, such as when attempting to scan a boarding pass at an airport, the screen blanks

I've been having a bit of a strange problem lately - sometimes my phone won't enter the lock screen. I'll turn the screen off, or let it go to sleep, and then when I go to turn the screen back on again (could be hours later), it goes directly to the home screen, and never see the lock screen. This makes it very easy to pocket-dial, or launch apps - my pocket started blaring music one day.
A restart seems to fix it for a little while, but within a day it will start doing the same thing, and I don't think I saw the lock screen at all yesterday. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? It started a couple months ago, but it seems to be more frequent now.
I am currently running Motorola Milestone, CM7 (kabaldan's beta with swap enabled). It was also happening some with CM7.2.1
Thanks in advance!
Anyone have any ideas?
Another interesting point is that after NOT seeing the lockscreen, and then playing around on the phone, I'll open one of the apps (say the browser), and THEN it will drop into the lockscreen. So right in the middle of doing stuff, it will make me have to unlock the phone. Can be a little frustrating.
Hi all. Got my first ATIV S Neo with Sprint a couple weeks ago, had graphical corruptions, and random reboots, replaced it for another.
This one works much better, but there are some issues I'm seeing (nitpicking?) and I'm not sure if I have another defective handset or if this is just WP8, or if this is common to just this handset. Came from an HTC arrive on WP7.5 and things were pretty stable.
1) Occasional live tile animation stuttering; If I, for instance, go into the messages hub, sometimes the live tile swing animation will lock for half a second and then immediately pop into the message hub. Happens loading other apps too.
2) Occasional lock screen weirdness;
2a) very rare; press power button, screen comes on, screen fades out like the phone lost power but not to backlight, then backlight shuts off, pressing the power button again, everything works fine.
2b) occasional; in a dark room, press the power button to wake to lock screen, press again to turn off. screen/backlight goes out, backlight comes back, then goes out, then quickly comes back and back out.
3) in IE, typing in the address bar, text input freezes as it brings up suggestions from bing. (type "google.com" and get "gole.com"). disabling search suggestions makes it go away.
4) Text notifications stop working; sometimes the text notification sound stops playing (vibrate remains working). Reboot corrects it. Have also had it where the vibrate alert goes away and not the sound.
Anyone else seeing these? Are these known or is this phone also messed up?
Haven't seen those on my (open-market GSM) ATIV S, but there were a handful of glitches when I first got the phone. Those were corrected in the first big fiormware update from Samsung in my case, but I had to wait a few months for it.

Thanks, that makes me feel a little more comfortable. These problems really don't feel like hardware to me, since they're fairly infrequent. I might have to stop by the sprint store and test the display model out a little.

I have been getting a black screen, now and then with ota 5.1, unlocked but not rooted, US Cellular. Has anyone experienced this? If so, what is your experience? Found any fixes (other that workarounds)??
Symptom: black screen, lower and upper bars appear and seem to be functional.
The best workaround seems to be to twist start the camera, then hit the on/off button to put to sleep and then wake it up. The reason for the on/off trick is because the back/home/recent buttons on the bottom don't function. Oddly, after the workaround, going back into camera, those buttons work.
To me, is seems to be an app issue, which one, I don't know. Maybe something putting it to sleep, or something with the screen lock/phone lock 'features'. A bugger to track down.
My device is completely stock.
I have noticed that the screen will randomly wake on its own to the lockscreen.
If i get a notification it does this however will also do it with nothing apparently new having happened.
Any ideas?
I noticed this before on my P9-L:ite but haven't seen it yet on my P10. In my case, I believe it happens when the phone loses or regains internet connectivity. Since networks are kind of spotty where I am, it happens somewhat often.
i have the p10 plus and i have the same situation...... any solutions?
Mine only does this when receiving a snapchat from someone. Could it be app related?
My one week old P10 plus has the same problem. It happens when I lock the phone while any app is active (I tried with a few apps). However, it doesn't happen when I lock the phone while the home screen is active.
Has anyone found a solution?
Still interested in this–
started happening to me a few days back aswell; I noticed the change after shooting some balls with my phone in the pocket, screen facing the skin. At some point the phone got insanely hot. When I picked it up all sorts of s*** happened, as if my thigh was able to make touch inputs through the pants? Notification center / quick settings were all toggled randomly. Flashlight, geo location and hotspot were switched on whereas Wifi and Bluetooth were off (which is unusual). And the camera was running with fully brightened screen, which I think was main reason for the heat.
I wasn't sweating extensively; meaning the phone wasn't wet in my pockets or something–
And I don't know if the random screen wake up enabled my thigh to make the touch inputs or of something else happened which from then on let the screen randomly wake up– chicken and egg, you know :F
Hi everybody, I've been having a hideous issue with my Note 8 ever since it updated to Android Oreo. So, before when I turned my phone on, either by pressing the home button on the screen or by using the button on the side, I could see the notifications and I could view the whole preview by sliding them down, touch them and open them, erase them or leave them where they where. Now as soon as I use either one of this buttons, the phone automatically selects one of those notifications and pops up the screen with the sign password and iris recognize without giving me the chance of seeing the notifications. If I go back without using the password, the notification it wanted to open gets deleted. It basically takes away the possibility to check the notifications. The problem gets worse when I'm at home because I have the smartlock enabled, so (when and if it works) it opens up any notifications by itself. Sometimes, it's actually rare but it happened a few times already, it does everything on its own. It's on my bed far from me, I'm not even looking at it, a notification arrives, it turns on by itself and asks for my password to open the notification. What do you think? I hope someone has an answer and I hope i didn't create a new thread on an issue already discussed about, but I couldn't find anything similar
