I'm not sure exactly when this started but I'd say within the last month. When the phone is on idle (screen black), the internet is being timed-out.
Example 1: I leave my phone on the desk and I haven't gotten any messages on say WhatsApp / Messenger. When I press the power button to unlock the phone, I can have like 10+ messages coming.
Example 2: I'm again having the phone on the desk but I'm in a WhatsApp call, suddenly the call drops and tries to reconnect, as if someone lost connection. The moment I press my power button the call comes back (so it's obviously on my end). Happens with multiple people as well.
Any ideas what could be causing this? I'd say it happens after about 30min or so of "idle time" but I haven't properly timed it.
Latest Firmware and Android 10, if that's important.
I did some obervation today. It seems the timeout happens exactly after 15 min, on the second. Was in a call and the first was 15:15 into the call and the second was at 30:30.

The screen keeps blinking back to full brightness, every 30 seconds or so, when it is left alone and the screen dims normally. It is as if something is pressing a button or touching the screen.
When I press the power button and send it to suspend mode, the backlight goes off, and the tilt no longer responds to touch or button pressing. For some reason it pops itself out of suspend and turns back on every couple minutes. My battery life is going down extremely fast. 100% to 40% in three hours.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I searched the forum but never found a specific topic for this issue.

I have the same problem w
th the backlight comming on by itself & battery life depletes extremely fast. I am using HD 15 Nov with 3.29.
In addition to backlight issue my hardware keys are no longer working.
Please has anyone got any advice
i have the same problem. the only thing that seems to work is doing the keypad lock and putting it to sleep. it will occasionally blink like its trying to come back on but doesnt. another thing i did is put my phone in flight mode, locking the keypad and putting it to sleep. when i do that it doesnt blink or anything. sadly i wont receive phone calls or emails and texts. i think the blinking has something to do with phone signal and accessing the networks.
hth
also i noticed that it wakes from sleep when the keypad "unlock" screen pops up.
i think i found a fix
Ok I hope this helps for you because it seems to work for me. I first went to start/settings/sounds & notifications. Then I clicked on the notification tab and unchecked everything leaving only the ringer on for when calls come in. when I did that, for about 5 minutes (longest I tested it at) the phone did not turn on and the backlight didn’t do that weird grayish flash thing. Afterwords I at first was going to go down the list of all notifications and turn things on/off to see what wakes up my phone but i got too lazy and only checked one setting. One thing I noticed is that when I have the beam: autorecieved notification turned on for display a message on the screen I get that weird backlight flickering thing. So for now I just have sound alerts on when I receive any type of messages and a sound alert for reminders. So far so good, my phone hasn’t woken from sleep in 20 minutes.
Hey,
I have a Bell SGS, totally stock. It's suddenly become incredibly slow.
I haven't installed any new apps recently, or changed any settings.
When I press an icon, any icon here is what happens:
- I put my finger on the icon and let go, nothing happens for 2 seconds.
- The icon goes 'dark' like it is being depressed, stays that way for about 3 seconds
- The icon finally gets 'clicked' and I get the 'ding' sound
- The screen goes black with only status bar for about 5 seconds
- finally the app will show up, but if I press anything, it is unresponsive
- the app will become responsive after about 5 more seconds
- If I click a text box (like in stock messaging app), it freezes for another 4-5 seconds, the keyboard doesn't come up
- Finally the keyboard will come up.
ALSO:
- The phone app takes ages to launch.
- Anytime there is a screen to scroll, the scrolling is unresponsive for the first few seconds, its painful
- pressing the home button takes ages to bring me to home screen
- Often the phone just locks up and I can't turn the screen on, have to do a battery pull (once a day or so), I can't figure out what is causing it.
There are no apps running while this is happening, I looked at all running processes and everything seems normal, nothing hogging CPU.
Reboots don't fix it, it comes back just as slow
All the haptic feedback is way late, sometimes the little buzzes get queued up, so it wont do anything, then all of a sudden it will buzz 10 times in a row as it catches up with the button presses
Samsung email (which I use because I like how it handles multiple accounts) is the slowest program in the phone. When it loads up, I click on one of my accounts, it takes literally 30 seconds to load the messages. Then I still can't scroll for another 10 seconds, its agonizing. Switch to the other account? Another 30 seconds. Both accounts are set to keep emails from the last 14 days (not that much).
So, what the hell is going on? I took it to the Bell store, and even with the stupid warranty, they said "well, its still working, so theres nothing we can do"
i have the sleep timer on my phone set to 30 sec. whenever i listen to a message longer than 30 sec in google voice the phone goes to sleep and the message gets paused. then i have to wake the phone and press play again. this means if someone leaves me a message thats 3 min long ill have to wake the phone and press play 6 times. small but annoying bug.
does this happen to anyone else or am i the only one? can i do something to fix this or does google need to update the app?
I purchased a used Republic Wireless Moto X (1st Gen) and in the beginning I was happy with the phone, but then I got to school with it...
The first thing I noticed was the issue the phone was having with the college's network. The network requires a one time login every 10 hours to authenticate that you are a student. I would login and the phone would work normally on the school's network until it turned the screen off or I hit the power button once to sleep the phone. Once you did this and then tried to use the phone again it was like there was no network even though it was connected and already authenticated. I am forced to disconnect from the school's network and reconnect every time I want to use WiFi if the screen was turned off...
Well that problem was annoying as hell, but it got even worse as time went on (2 weeks). Now I can barely even use the phone at all on campus or sometimes even at my own house. I will be trying to do something very simple like open txt messaging and it will show my messages and then load the names to match the cell numbers (slowly). However when I click on a message it will stay stuck at a white text body with the person's name at the top and a txt enter box at the bottom that I can't do anything with (keyboard won't pop up).
If I hit back normally it will freeze the phone and it will restart, this is my primary problem. When trying to do basic things like txt messaging the phone freezes and restarts itself. Once it restarts on its own, nothing has fixed. I try to open txt messaging again and I get the EXACT same problem and the phone will restart again. The only semi-solution I have found is once the phone restarts itself, I shut it down through the normal hold power button briefly and click power off. Then when it comes back up, SOMETIMES it will act normal-ish.
The odd thing is a lot of the time once I get home on my network these restarts and freezes are much less frequent vs. on the school's network. This could be a coincidence, but I thought I should bring it up.
-------------------------------------
This is my first smartphone I have ever owned, but I have owned two tablets so I am familiar with Android and also with modding Android (rooting, boot loaders, custom ROMs, etc). If modding is the answer here then by all means tell me what I need to do so I can get a phone that functions properly.
I saw that Motorola is testing 5.1 for this phone now, perhaps that may fix these problems? Right now I am tempted to throw this phone out the window and go back to my flip phone that I can at least txt message on.
Not even a single idea?
Edit, found this:

Some users have faced problems with the device freezing, or randomly rebooting occasionally.
Potential Solution –
If the screen is frozen, tapping on the power button to turn the screen off, and turning the screen on again might unfreeze it. If that doesn’t work, a long press on the power button will reboot the device.
The likely culprit for this issue is a specific application. You can follow the instructions in Problem #4 above to find out if this is the case.

Hey folks,
Sometimes like 1 out of 10-15 calls for some reason it seems I can't answer the call or hang it up. I have to wait it out and even if I slide the green icon on the phone does nothing, it just sits there and I have to wait up untill the person hangs up so I can do anything. After this I can call and pick up the phone no problem but ones in a wile this thing will happen again.
Any one know why is this happening is there something triggering this, or how to fix it?
I have no lockscreen, no password nothing, just power button and the home screen where you have to swipe that's all, if that matters even.
