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 happens on my phone once in a while. I just open up adjbrightness and problem solved.

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?

Hi ppl. I recently encountered this problem and Hv searched a lot but couldn't find a proper solution.
I pulled my Ph out of my pocket and had the pocket sensor app installed back then and the phone was getting locked and unlocked but I couldn't bypass the lock screen since the touch screen wouldn't respond. I could see everything else on the notification bar working like the gprs arrows and I even got a call when this happened but couldn't pick the call up too. The only way I could get out of it was to take the battery out. Now its been happening often and I heard the emmc chip gets fried if u keep taking the battery out when the Ph is on. Anyone else facing a similar problem??
I am rooted on 2.3.5

Did u try to lock n unlock it via the on/off button on top when it not responding?..

I had major problems when I was on 2.3.3 stock unrooted.
I had a lot of crap on it so maybe that was the problem.
Are you on a custom rom? If youre not, I would probably try a gingerbread custom rom and see if it still happens.
Also if you are scared of taking the battery out, you can hold power+vol down+vol up at the same time for a few seconds, and it will reboot
Try not to use that apps. See whether the same thing happen again or not.

Have you tried a factory reset?
I had it on unrooted stock optus rom.
I would change to a more optimised rom like ARHD or something
@nonverbose
I don't think it is that big of an issue for a factory reset but it happened again today and was fine after a few mins. Would you come to know what is causing this if I sent some kind of an error log or something. If yes pl tell me what I need to send. @marcj338
Does ARHD have internet pass through? I use my office network to download big games,etc so I need the feature. Hows ARHD better than the stock anyway?

Not sure about the internet pass through because I have never tried to use it so I dont know if its there
It is much smoother, Ive played with stock 3.0 and it lags and is a bit choppy
When I used ARHD, I found it a LOT smoother than stock, it has better battery life, and it more optimised. Even with OC is lasts longer. I would have kept it, but I didn't like the look of stock 3.0 compared to runnymede ports

The reason I suggested a factory reset is because I think you're experiencing major lag spikes, possibly due to background running tasks. Does it always happen when you have this pocket sensor app activated?
@markj338
I wanted to try out ARHD for a while but was unimpressed by CM so I thought of sticking to stock but later when I checked my friends Ph and saw the difference I wanted to go for it but now I think am gonna wait for ics cos I heard it's very stable. TX for ur time though! Appreciate it ..
@nonverbose
I think it's the pocket sensor but am not sure. I try out various combinations to get outta it. Sometimes I think its the go locker but I noticed 1 thing for sure ....it happens when it's really hot outside and the battery heats up too. Am trying to give as much info as possible!!
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA
Wow.....everytime I try to determine the problem as to why this is happening I come up with random ideas since noting used to work. Now on my way to work the same thing happened again. It is still not responding and am posting this from my office computer. I could unlock the go lock screen by the vol button which I had configured. I could see the internet pages loading up since I was browsing when it happened suddenly. The auto rotation also works and all buttons like home, menu, search are responding but it just doesnt seem to respond when I touch the screen. I googled it and found there is something called a touch input which might be and issue. I cant do anything to stop and restart the service since the touch doesnt work. Any suggestions?
Uninstall pocket sensor and go locker.
Really ...y do you think they are the problem.

Check where exactly is the proximity sensor and make sure nothing is blocking it (dirt) and/or is still exactly where it should be (if you drop a phone it might get dislocated). This would explain sudden unresponsiveness since phone might think it is in call mode (proximity sensor detects presence of your head and disables the screen while you are dialling).
I had go launcher n pocket sensor way before this started happening. I don't think that's the problem. Its something to do with the touch input but can't figure out the cause.
N yeah I remember dropping it once. My SD card is almost full since I got a lotta media n apps. Would buying a new high capacity SD card do the trick? I remember my laptop lagging due to an almost full hard disk ...

It happened again today. I received some bluetooth files and its not responding now. Menu buttons work but the touch is being a *****. It happens so randomly n it not even funny. grrrr
Hello,
Very stupid thing... I have no idea how but I have enabled the Screen always on while charging feature because, that's what happens.
The problem is I'm on stock LRG Rom and there is no option on developer section, in settings.
How do I disable this? Pretty annoying.
Thanks

It should turn it off automatically after 30s, like I've defined in settings. And it does when NOT charging. When charging is always on...

I left my phone on while charging, so I just press the off button once to turn off the screen. Hopefully it will solve your problem

It solves... temporarily. Whenever the screen turn on (battery charged notification, sms notification, etc) it won't go off again. This is a problem if I leave it charge during the night (like it happened last night).

I said "stock LRG Rom" just with root, and also said " there is no option on developer section". I know that some Roms have this option, but not this one. Have no idea how I have enable the option that is not available in the UI.
Is this any option in some config file where I can check (as said, I have root).
I saw somewhere that clearing cache processes(Ram) does the job.. But I dunn remember properly. Maybe u should give it try....

I can confirm that this is working, be sure to restart your phone after applying the settings web hijacker posted.
NOTE: your phone will not go into deep sleep after applying this workaround as it will purposely cause a partial wakelock, so this will have some negative affect on battery, just how much remains to be seen.

Thank you for you feed back
And I don't care about battery because I charge my phone twice a day ....

There is a fix for 3g problem?
It's about the same problem, when the telephone is in stand by mode for a long time (2 hours or more), the 3g stop working, it seems to be on, but it don't work ! You need to turn off and then turn on again to make it work !

I have no idea mate. Even i am troubled..
Installed again and did the work around 2 method and rebooted. Was going fine the whole day until I turned off wifi to save battery. Turned it back on, everything was fine, then I locked the phone. Unlocked it back and no wifi! But it reconnected really quickly so I guess this app is doing something!

I don't have such a problem but if you face it again just do one of these method and it will work
1.reboot the device
2.when you turn off WiFi to save your battery and turn it on again .... go to dev option and press enable work ground 2 again and this should solve the problem
