I did a search and didn't see this so maybe i can get answer. I did the sprint root and everything had been fine. Just when i open certain apps it hangs and my phone does quick pulses every 3-5 seconds. After minute sometimes phone responds and works fine. So curious if i can see what is that app(s) doing so i can see why and how to fix it.

When my battery falls below 50% my touchscreen begins to act weird. No matter what I select it chooses whatever option is at the bottom of the screen. I can occasionally get it to work if I reboot the device or open and close the keyboard about 10 times. Once it has been corrected it falls back to the odd behavior within about five minutes. I have established that this doesn't happen if the batter is above 50%, and if I charge the phone up only a few percent then the issue goes away.
The phone currently has Cyanogen 4.2.15.1
I'm stumped as to what could be causing this and was unable to find any similar postings on the forum. If this issue has been addressed in another thread I would greatly appreciate a link to said thread.
Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!
My G1 also has similar problem, the touch screen is totally not functioning, I still finding the cause but it's so annoying. When the touch screen is not working, I can't invoke the "Dialer" function, that means I can't dial. Also, when there's incoming calls, the dialer function can't pop up too. That makes my G1 can't be worked as a phone when touch screen is not working.
Since Sprint is going to try and screw me big time if I get a new phone, I've decided to see what new life I could put into my old Touch Diamond (DIA500). I installed XDAndroid FRX05, and it seems to be working really well, with a few exceptions. One of the first things I tried was to enable Bluetooth. What happens is that it enables, but about 4 seconds after being enabled, it says it's shutting down, then it starts back up, and shuts down. It keeps doing this forever, until I turn it off. Now that I tried Wifi, it does the exact same thing. I've rebooted a few times, and took the battery out once, but still nothing. I've since installed a battery-saving program, but this happened on a fresh install.
The next issue is with the backlight. If I try and change the brightness, it changes for a second, then goes back to the brightness it was. It does this whether I turn the brightness up or down. It's not set to auto.
The third issue is the GPS. It works, but seems to take a long time to get a lock. Under WM, I'd have some kind of location within seconds, even inside. I'm guessing it was using the phone network to speed things up. Under android, it takes a few minutes sometimes, and it's worse inside.
I also had a nightmare calibrating the screen. It's still a little off, but it works. Does anyone know a screen calibration program that would work?
Any ideas?
Thanks!
To solve the brightness problem. Boot WinMo and turn off auto brightness there. That will solve that problem.
Thanks for share you knowledge here DA01
I've got a Captivate running base Andromeda 3. I believe I had this issue prior to that, but I cannot be sure. Here's the behavior:
I use the Google Desk Clock overnight while I charge my phone. In the Morning, when I unplug it, everything works fine, regardless of whether I let the screen time out or press the power button to turn it off. Somewhere in the next hour, it may be 3 minutes it may be closer to an hour, the screen decides it WILL NOT turn back on.
The phone is still on, the softkeys still light up, the phone still rings and receives messages. I can even answer the call and talk, just based on knowing where the answer slider is.
Interestingly, if I wait for the call to STOP, the screen will come back ON, but then won't really work. It wants to hang and/or freeze on whatever given home screen you come back to.
Holding volume up plus power to force reboot fixes the issue until the next morning.
I had other issues a long time ago on another rom with LauncherPro, and had switched to ADW. When I mentioned this issue in the Andromeda thread, it was suggested I switch to Zeam. The problem persists and interestingly, about 50% of the time when the phone turns back on, Zeam has decided I only need 3 instead of 5 home screens. Editing the setting brings back the home screens and their setup, weird.
I thought maybe it was Clockr, not clockr.
Using BattStat, SiMi Clock, GVoice, and Keyring widgets. I can't imagine any of my installed apps would make a difference, I'll list them if necessary.
I believe Andromeda (Froyo?) does some weird things with shutting down apps, I'm wondering if it possibly has something to do with that. The problem never happens again during the day, so clearly it either has to do with charging or with the GDesk Clock, or both. Happy to hear any thoughts. Please?
One more thing: While the screen is off but the phone is on, it DESTROYS my battery. Seriously, it'll eat 15% in 20 minutes.

I've read something about that couple days ago. If you do a little search, I'm sure you'll find it (can't remember what the thread was called)
Also, black screen usually happens with UV. which brings me to ask.. Do you OC/UV?
Andromeda doesnt do anything differently than any other rom including stock when shutting down apps. there was nothing changed that would change that behavior from any version of 2.2
Unless andromeda does onboard OC/UV, then no, I don't.
Seriously nothing that I can find has changed. I've scoured the boards looking for similar threads, but I suppose I'll start over.
Oc/uv is not available in andromeda without flashing a different kernel

Hello,
I have had noticed this for a while but though it was normal. Till I am starting to notice that it is taking the GNote screen longer and longer to "warm up".
What is happening is when I leave the GNote in deep sleep for a while (the longer i keep it in deep sleep the longer it takes to warm up) and then wake it up, I get a green screen, but after a few seconds the green colouring will slowly fade away until it is back to normal.
If I put the note to sleep and open it back up in about 2-5 seconds, it will wake up perfectly fine but as soon as I start leaving it in sleep mode for about 5 mins, I can start noticing the green tint when waking it up. When I wake it up after 5 mins, it takes about 1 second to get back to normal, when when I leave it for a good 3 hours, it takes about 5-6 seconds before the screen return to normal.
I just want to know if this is "normal" as I can not find any thread on this forum or in google about this. None of my friends has this phone so I am unable to check theirs. Sorry about the long explanation, I just want to make sure you guys know what I am talking about.
Nope....that doesnt sound right....ive had my phone 4 a month now and cant say i saw ths issue....sounds like a faulty screen to me.
If ur on warranty....ask 4 a replacement. If not, try changing the rom.
I tried a number of things to see if it fixes the problem. I first tried using the K7 deodexed rom, then I tried changing the kernel to Abyss. Now I am running Rocket ROM with Abyss 3.5b.
But I do remember that I didn't have this problem in the first week. I think I started noticing this after I rooted my phone when it was on XKK9 but I wouldn't think rooting my phone would cause something like this unless it was just coincident.
I guess no one has any idea why this might be happening. I might send an email to Samsung and see what they think.
I'm having quite a few issues with my ROM'd Z phone using Paranoid. I've recently updated to the latest version as soon as I was alerted.
1. The lock screen freezes, or rather becomes limited in responsiveness. I use the swipe up to unlock. When I swipe up, the clock/notifications just bounces and eventually the screen goes dark, then off. Sometimes I can reset using the power menu, but often the screen is totally unresponsive so I have to do a hard reset. On occasion I have to reset multiple times consecutively because it locks up immediately after boot... until its finally usable again. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7OGcalUJSgHblZob2Q2eHNkLU0
2. The phone gets hot in my pocket. When I notice this, often it has unlocked, turned on GPS, turned on the LED, taken photos and opened apps, or a combination of things. Sometimes even made a phone call, either to a contact or a recent from the log.
3. Recently I noticed it randomly ghost selecting right in front of me. I was unable to unlock and had to hard reset the phone.https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7OGcalUJSgHVmJhQ0FOUDdLQkE
4. I am not getting SMS alerts from Optus 321 telling me I have messages from when the phone was off, or out of service range. Often I won't know till I randomly check days later, or when I miss a call (while on another call or in service range) and they leave a message.
5. Sound drops in and out from the other party. They can always hear me. Randomly, on some calls. I can have 3 good conversations, then the next I have to call back multiple times before I get enough up time.
5a. When I'm making a call, I may not even hear the outgoing ringing tone.
6. On any new call, the the volume on my Bluetooth headset is usually down about half way. I click the Vol+ and it immediately jumps to full, the volume bar already being at full.
7. When it rings, it often takes a second or more (after the ring tone has started) for the screen to turn on.
On suggestion by a friend, I disabled a lot of notifications, but the lock screen still won't unlock even when the only thing showing is the clock.
I guess there is problems with the the phone hardware, the ROM or incompatibilities with it and an APP.
Is there some diagnostics, or an app that I can run that will log what is going on and I can have someone look at those logs for me?
You should ask in Paranoid Support Thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-zl/orig-development/rom-paranoid-android-5-t2992023
Thankyou. I could not find it.
edit: That thread is closed. There is a link at the end for a 'new home', but that thread is under Xperia ZL. Is the ZL considered the same phone?
I'm really sorry.
i gave you a wrong link. Shame on me.
