Weird startup screen - Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK my phone just suddenly rebooted on me and gave me a screen that, from what I can tell, an option for booting with Samsung or an unlocked lock. Does anyone know what this is?

Lock Screen Delay/Lag

I have rooted my nexus 7 and not sure if this was an issue before hand as I rooted straight away but everytime I turn the screen on to unlock the device there is a delay in it going from lock screen to my main screen. Is this a known issue? Anyone experiencing this and found a solution?

I would restore if I were you, mine is rooted and has zero lag.

Anyone losing the circular menu when you take the pen out?

For no reason, that nice menu doesn't pop up any more although it shows the message that the pen has been removed. Anyone else experience this?

Check "settings>controls>Spen>>pen detachment options" and make sure air command is the option selected. Also I don't think it will pop up if you are using a custom launcher

It is checked as air command. I have nova and it worked fine them stopped. Odd.

I'm also running Nova. Just re-enabled it and it works fine. All else fails maybe a reset is in order. Good luck.

I'm also running Nova and I had lost it too. Aside from enabling it when the pen is pulled as stated above, make sure you enable the Settings/Control/Motion Control/Air Cocmmand. I had turned it off thinking it was something else and the menu stopped popping up when I pulled the pen.

Not to be a jerk but this should have been posted in Q&A section. But anyhow it sounds lije your proximity sensor may be bad. Open your phone app and press menu button to access settings if you cant figure it out I would just backup all the data with Kies 3 or whatever and do a factory reset

Haven't tried a reset, bbut download this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tigermonster.proxfinder and am getting readings for 0 and 8cm (no intermediate) as well as time covered.
So not really sure what to do next. Reset might be only way.

Try this:
Go to- Settings
My device
Call
Turn off screen during calls.
There should be a check next to it. Try turning it off & on again.
Be aware things change if you're using bluetooth...
Hope this helps.

Ok thought i would try something after reading elsewhere that dust can effect it quite easily. I have an otterbox defender. Guess what, no problems at all when phone is naked.
Case closed! Ill just have to "deal with it" as they say!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That sounds like your case was blocking the proximity sensor on the front of your device
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 using xda app-developers app
Yup thats what i discovered. It doesnt directly block it but the presence of the case close to the sensor must be creating some confusing for it.
