Lock button issue - Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I need to press hardly to make the lock button works. The issue was started after using Lollipop . I thought it may be a software bug but I saw a post recently in FB where lot of users are having this issue. Sometime the lock button not works if we pressed.

The lock button issue also occur to me with Miui6 without any reason, I thought it was simply because it becomes defective ? (Like sometimes I press it and it acts like it's double pressed or not pressed at all). My phone isn't even 1 year old so I'm a bit pissed if it's an hardware issue...

The same. I absolutely thought it's my phone hardware problem, but everybody facing this D:
Its happening on every single ROM

I don't experience this on MokeeOS and ivan's rom

I was also facing the same issue.
But after flashing lollipop 5.1.1 by Ivan the issue is gone...
Try it...

No idea... I bought my phone at the earlier earlier batch, where it is pack in bubblewrap... LOL!
Anyway, at 2.2.2, still same problem. Doesn't want to get custom rom, as after my exam, i'm going down to LG and get some servicing or shyt out from them...
The problem exist especially when you are charging. It occur also when you put your phone to sleep while running on GPS. Very fedup with it.
It is categorized in Freeze and Reboot Problem
It's the first stage of that problem, if you continue using it, you will suffer the reboot problem

solution to some bsod models. Tested, working!
Many p990 bsod models have faulty soldering of some sort. A solution which have worked for many is to simply plug in your charger. When your phone goes to sleep and doesnt wake up when you hit the power button, just leave it be for 12+ hours. Place your phone on something soft as well, like your bed. This will heat up the device and fix the faulty soldering. If it does not work, try longer period of charging. Good luck. (I will take no responsibility if this does not work as planned)
This was tried on a bsod model which went to unresponsive sleep every 5-30 minutes. After this procedure it was faultless

have u tried not to sleep your device when charge?? settings->applications->development->stay awake
I've had my LG for quite some time now and I still trying to figure it out. So, if you're patient enough, please, just bare with me for a while as I explain what I've tried so far what what were the results.
A lot of people complains about this phone... unstable, crashes, reboots, BSOD, etc...
The first problem I had, came with the stock ROM... after a while the Wi-Fi just stopped working and it would display "Error..." as a message. The only solution was to reboot. 3 or 4 days after I had bought it, this was already killing me... so I started trying other ROMs but all seemed to suffer from some sort of problem except for one (see phone info below), which I've been running since June and I find it impeccably stable I can basically keep my phone running for as long as I want, as long as the battery doesn't run out (obviously), which brings me to a second point... battery drain!!
The battery drain was the only problem I didn't manage to find a solution for... and after a certain while, even though my phone was stable, having to charge my phone every single day was becoming very annoying.
Since I live in a different country than my GSM operator, it doesn't come as a news flash that network look-up has a big impact on the battery life, specially because I live close enough to the border to be able to keep the signal but in some parts of my house the signal is lost forcing the phone to search for a new network, which sometimes it finds (roaming) and sometimes it comes back to the original network and so on... However, what I find, unarguably, to have the biggest impact on the battery is having the Wi-fi enabled when there's no available network, it's just huge, it can suck up the battery in a few hours...
So, I decided to try some of those power management apps such as Locale, Green Power and some other, in order to minimize these problems, but curiously, they all caused the same problem... BSOD within a matter of minutes. I installed the app, configured it, waited for the phone to go into sleep and puff... it was gone. The only way out of it was removing the battery. I uninstalled the app, and the phone was stable again... this happened with every single app of the kind, that I have tried.
At the moment my phone is as stable as it gets but if I don't pay it enough attention, the battery dies in a blink of an eye.
Model number: LG-P990
Android version: 2.2.2
Baseband version: 1035.21_20110614
Kernel version: 2.6.32.28-mck-r14-ocuv
Build number: FRG83G
LGE version: 19/5-11 MoDaCo FR17 Fear Edition 10
Any suggestions will be more than welcome.
Cheers!

blank screen but phone ON!!!!

Has anyone had this issue?
I have tried a few different ROM's and have had this problem on all, the phone will work but sometimes when the phone is locked and asleep you cannot get the screen back.
If you ring the phone it will ring but you can't wake the phone up (the screen is off).
If I then pull the battery and reboot all is well until the next time, which is random.
I will remove all my programs to see if there is one of them causing the issue, I don't believe it is the rom as it has happened on a few of them.
Have you wiped your phone when flashing the different roms? I've had it sometimes, i think it could be a ram management issue...

Yeh, I always do a factory/wipe, dalvik cache wipe.
I think it might have been TW4.5, I did some research and installed TW4 Manager I then updated TW4.5 to the latest Version. So far it hasn't happened yet but i'll give it a couple more days.
Thanks.
Yh ive been reading and TW4 generally accelerates the issue (because its a ram hog? not sure i dont use it) Im currently using Golauncher with system tweaks, but was told that nemus launcher and system tweaks was a better combination... Seems to be working, ive had less force closes or issues of that type
it's the proximity sensor. needs replaced.

I don't think so...
The proximity sensor is only used when your in a call. It should not have any effect when he tries to wake it from his pocket after a while...
Well i am on 2.3.5 and using golauncher and never had any problems. Still my best guess is the damn sensor. On samsung apps there is an app called sensors i think and that app tells u what is working inside the phone.

Sounds like a great app but seeing as the screen doesn't turn on that app might as well be useless in this case
No screen turns on, its just when it turns off it wont come back on...
I have the same issue with my SGS. Running stock version of JVT.
Wake up in the morning to phone alarm but screen is black. Pushing home button or any other button does nothing. Had this happen a few times now and only solution is to pull the battery
In order to help you we need to know what you are running currently and what you have tried to resolve the issue so far, can please make as detailed account as possible
It's seems that everybody have this same issue. I have exactly this same - phone is working - buttons are lit, but the screen is blank. I'm on 2.3.5 stock firmware.
Trying to solve this I already did wipe and even formatted the internal storage.
What's more interesting is that this same happens to my wife's Galaxy Mini (S5570) !!.
I can remember though that when my phone was on v2.2 about a year ago it was working ok.
small tip:
What you can do instead of pulling the battery out is to press the power button for about 10 seconds ( phone will turn off) release and the press it again for few seconds to start again.
You don`t need to press power again, just keep it pressed until you see the samsung bootlogo.
Mine has started to blackout too, maybe it`s related to some installed software. It worked ok still few months ago. My galaxy mini is working ok tho, has only few market apps installed.

The bug is called SOD (Sleep of Death). Apparently a Gingerbread only bug (I think deep sleep was introduced in Gingerbread).
Your phone is going into deep sleep, and can't be woken agian.
I don't know if there is a fix for it, but you could try search for SOD on these forum pages.

i had this issue on cm7 with neo kernel, but sometimes it responded after some time
i think its black magic made by apple and will kill our cats
As Herman76 said, this is the SOD, I used to get them quite frequently. I created a thread with a possible workaround. So far haven't got any new SODs.

Touchscreen problems

hey,
since one or two months i have some troubles with my touchscreen. Randomly it starts to press something that i didn't touch and when i stop touching the screen, the system touches from alone. mostly opening google now by swiping up the home button. it also types thigns in whatsapp or so. Sometimes when i turn on the phone the touchscreen doesn't respon. all those problems are solved when i turn off the screen for 5 secs and turn it on again. i am running eXistenZ v3, i also tried some aosp 4.3 roms and had the same problem.
Any idea ?
EDIT: because the problem is solved as soon as i turn of the screen and on again i am not sure if it is really a hardware problem, is it ?

I was just about to post with the same issue!
I replaced the screen and back cover on my Xperia Z back in August and it was running issue free for 2 months but after the update last month to 4.2.2 I started having serious issues with touch screen.
Random inputs, no response to touch, looping homescreens and random apps opening and worse.
I am torn between a hardware issue?
As when the USB cable is connected the problem seems to gone so I think there may be a slight voltage leak screwing with the screen?
What is the best way to ensure that it is not a ground/voltage leak issue?
Or
Or because the issue cropped up almost immediately after the last Sony update, is there a chance it could be a software issue?
I am running on Stock 4.2.2 and any advice will be much appreciated
I have noticed yesterday that my Z's screen keeps pressing a certain spot randomly. Its by the O / P when i use the onscreen keypad. I opened the note app and drew lines, and there is an actual break in the lines when i draw in that area. This happened so sudden. I didnt drop my phone or anything. I just noticed it while typing that the letters started to get jumbled.
I have the same issue but only on certain kernels, I'm using that XZK "Stock kernel" with dual recovery and it's fine now (Note: This kernel only runs on Sony roms) Also, not sure if it's related but if i leave my phone to charge over night, ill turn the screen on and the touchscreen won't respond at ALL unless i hard-reset...

It might have even been a corrupt update, if you run windows go onto the sony application and get it to RE update your phone see if it fixes, it might. And if it does, yay. if not, then atleast you've ruled that out, right?
Well I noticed a small distortion in the screen on a white background in the area that my screen was experiencing random touches, and today I pulled my phone out of my pocket....and 4 cracks spread all over my screen....cant use the touch screen now have to look to order a screen

Screen wake up issue ?

My wife's S5 fails to wake up after multiple home button or side button presses. Sometimes takes a lot of tries!
Anyone else ?
HTC UltimEight ??
Not experiencing anything like that here. Wakes up the first click every time.
I have this problem too. Are you running ART?
Had the same issue this morning. Took a minute for it to come on.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using xda app-developers app
I did notice a HUGE decrease in wake-up performance while messing with the lockscreen "effects". It seems either using no effect to unlock it, or the watercooler is the fastest (which I like the best anyway).
Also, try turning off the help information and the additional information (such as the weather). The lockscreen weather will effect wake-up time due to it trying to refresh when you wake-up the phone.
I experienced this issue running ART. Been on dalvik since last night and haven't noticed it yet, but it hasn't been long enough to be definitive.
Wow you guys are onto something.
I indeed switched to ART.
Well going back to dalvik to see if it stops.
Thanks guys

2 days with mine and I have noticed this several times, some KK custom ROMs had a similar issue so it didn't really faze me but it shouldn't be there on a factory ROM. It has always come on after 2-3 pushes but again this is a brand new totally stock device so WTF?
It seems like there is a slight delay between button push and screen light up so pushing it the 2nd time actually turns it off. If I wait a very long second it lights up without multiple pushes.

Try update to 1910.44. This fix the problem
right air trigger is not working perfectly
Problem not resolved after update also.
Left Air-Trigger button not working properly
Yesterday my phone's left air-trigger started to loose its connection or something. I had to press really hard for it to notice that I am pressing the button. And even when I am holding it, it again looses its connection in between. Firstly I thought that it was app specific but then I tried it on multiple games and the issue was same on all. This has made it almost unplayable. Then I thought may be it will get fixed by updating the phone. But even after updating it to 1910.64 (which is latest by this day) the air trigger were not working as they were on the day of purchase. Please let me know if it is a software issue or a hardware issue. And if you need more information I will happy to provide them so feel free to ask. BTW I purchased this device this month only.
Have u tried folks factory reset?

Hi Everyone! Hope you all are well.. @arpitsinha explained..
I am facing the same issue since January update and its remains same till date.. i tried hard resetting, Rollback on android 9, again updating to letest android 10 and may 2020 update as well.
I also wrote mail to Asus about the same but their responce was cold and told me to visit Asus Service center after Lockdown. I also watche youtube video where a guy suggested to clean teigger spot with spirit and or try removing Back cover and use phone naked.. pointless but i did tried ...
Finally after trying all options I did something that didn't resolve My mobile issue but it resolved mine..
I stared using 4 finger.. hope asus acknowledge it and resolve this issue soon.
