Well I did the 4.4 update, non rooted or anything. Every time I play music my phone will freeze for 1 min but the music will still play. It becomes unresponsive until I spam the power and home button which then the screen turns on.

Running the 1.08 DeOdexed ROM (rooted & s-off) with Facebook & AT&T "stuff" removed.
When using the Amazon Kindle app I've noticed that the three capacitive buttons will light periodically for a few seconds (causing a slight screen dimming) and then go out. Then repeat some seconds later. I haven't noticed any particular pattern or that this happens in any other app.
Any ideas?
Thanks, -- Larry

Thank you. Interestingly, the app works great, but the /sys/class .... hack did not stick.

So for some reason, randomly, I will lock my phone and not be able to unlock it or get the screen to come back on.
So I will lock my phone - come back - screen will be off - can't press any keys (home, power, volume) and get a response. Notifications and stuff still happens. I have to hold the power button in which the screen flashes (a line shoots across the screen, disappears and then Galaxy Note 3 shows up).
any recomendations?
That's not even close to right. I would be taking it back to where I bought it.

This must be a software issue. I've had this happen to me as well. Only once in the last two weeks. Seemed to happen when locking and unlocking repetitively.

Yeah, sometimes it wont happen for a long time. Sometimes it will happen repeatedly.
I dont know if related, by Knox keeps saying something about software trying to access information every time I reboot. I have no idea WHAT app its talking about because it doesnt freakin tell me.
Happened once and can assure you its a software issue. If it continues to be a problem I would recommend a factory reset.

For some reason out of nowhere I can't skip tracks using the volume rockers when my phone is off anymore. I didn't change anything. When I hold down the volume rockers nothing happens. The volume doesn't increase and the song doesn't skip. I tried rebooting and toggling the option on and off.

I had a similar problem using the volume rocker to turn on the flashlight via Wanum. Went to data/dalvik cache with Root Explorer and deleted all contents. Immediately powered off. Reboot probably won't work after clearing dalvik. Powered back on and let device go thru slow boot up. Device has never run faster or smoother. All Wanum and all Multi-Window functions are now working properly.

No luck :/
Hi
I have the AT&T galaxy s6 edge 128GB, I've being using it for about a month now. The phone is amazing except for when I hit the home button which causes a short pause before showing the widgets and the shortcuts. After contacting Samsung they gave me these instructions which seems to work:
Enter into safemode by:
1. Switching the phone off.
2. Switch the phone on + hold the volume down button.
3. when the screen turn on, release the power button and keep holding the volume down button until seeing the lock screen.
*THIS PROCESS WILL SOFT REST YOUR PHONE. MEANING THAT YOU BE LOGGED OUT OF ALL YOUR ACCOUNTS LIKE TWITTER AND INSTAGRAM AND IT WILL DISABLE ALL THE PLAY STORE INSTALLED APPS UNTIL YOU SWITCH BACK TO NORMAL MODE*
After entering the safemode, use the phone for about 25 minutes then restart it to normal mode. That's it.
So have you seen any performance improvements?

I saw a difference. The phone was fast and smooth in the safemode, which means that one of the apps that I installed is causing an issue when I use it in normal mode.
Sorry for the late reply
Since the VZW update to 5.1 my phone seems to lock up every once in a while when I am hanging up a Bluetooth call. I have hold the power button to get the phone to reboot. Each time it does this the phone goes through its 'Optimizing App x of 120' each time. Any ideas?
