Problem:
Phone in my pocket, volume down gets bumped into. The next 3 hours I won't get any notifications. This is incredibly annoying and frustrating.
How in the world can I disable volume down activating do not disturb while the screen is off?
First, the power button has to be bumped first, then the volume down button (various times). Too much bumping.
get a case

The power button does not need to be bumped.
While the phone is sleeping (screen off + short wait), press volume down either once or twice and it will go into do not disturb mode. I can also put on full volume while it's sleeping as well.
Tried what you said. Doesn't happpen to me. Using stock rom.

I restarted the phone and the issue hasn't come back yet. If/when it does I'll post again. Seems to be a weird bug

Issue has just came back. Restarting the phone makes it go away. Seems like we have found a solution! I'll keep a log of how often this happens here.

Which rom are you using? Is Double tap to Wake enabled? Are you using an app to lock the screen? Maybe that app is not locking the screen initially but displaying a black image for a short time before turning the display off.

Stock rom.
Ambient display is disabled.
No App. It did this stock out of the box
RMA would be a better option.
Problem has come back! a week delay this time
I would love an option to disable it on the phone entirely I never use it anyway and it occasionally gets turned on by mistake and I end up missing calls.
Found this in another forum - change DND priority settings to allow calls and messages from anyone. Should fix it!

The past few weeks I've been noticing that my DHD often vibrates at random times, when it should not do this at all.
It just vibrates (in stby mode), nothing else but I always think I'm getting a call or a text, which is pretty annoying.
Sometimes it vibrates just once, but also sometimes it vibrates 3 times, very fast and hard. Last night it even woke me up...
Anyone having the same issue?

Had this today when I bought it out of standby. Thought I had a text or email or something but there was nothing. Never noticed it happen when in standby though.
This happens regularly on mine too! its frustrating! you think you have a call or a message but you dont! :s
Its probably caused by your signal going from hspa (3.5g) to 3g to gprs

Isn't this called Blackberry syndrome? Imagining your phone vibrating, just so you can check it!
Seriously though, I dont have this on my DHD. It was present on my Hero though. I think its your phone getting lonely because your not using it.
If you press the volume rocker right in the middle it will vibrate 1 time and sometimes it will do 2 quick vibrates following the first one. This is probably not related to your case but it fits under the random vibration for other that might not know about it.
I noted you get a vibration when you signal goes out, and when it comes back again.
it does happen on mine too...
but i think i know the cause... its usually after using the volume buttons when it does it
but after installing CM, it doesnt do it anymore... i think its something to do with stock ROMS (mainly sense)
+1 more for that, i thought i was going mad when i first noticed it, but after reading this im feeling a bit more sane,
stock rom btw
Mine does it too. I'm using Custom Modaco Rom. When I go to unlock the phone it vibrated but not all the time. Never in my pocket though. I thought it was 3g watchdog playing up but other people getting it too so not that. It did it just now reading these posts hope it doesn't get worse.

Mine does it too. Got used to it now though.
Mine does this, but I know when it does it and why.
Usually it's either when unlocking the phone, or pressing the power button to lock it.
The reason why? It's because I have fat hands and accidentally press the volume down button when using the phone, causing it to go into vibration mode (which makes the phone vibrate once to let you know).
It's confusing, but entirely my own fault.
That's kinda diffirent from what I'm having. Mine does this without going into vibration mode or anything elsr for that matter. It just vibrates, even when locked and when the screen's off...
Just noticed that it does indeed have something to do with the volume buttons. Just lock your phone, press down both of the volume buttons, unlock it and then you will feel the 3 vibrations
I've noticed mine vibrates when launcher pro crashes, happens while i'm listening to music and try changing the volume sometimes, every time it happens the next time i unlock the phone launcher pro has to restart.
Although I have noticed it some times vibrates when I try to lock or unlock the phone and accidentally hit the volume buttons, not sure what happens there though.
EDIT: Just been trying to lock and hold one of the volume buttons, I've noticed it locks up for a second or two, so it's most likely something crashing I think.
Really sorry to bump a thead from a few weeks ago - but has anybody had any luck with resolving this?
This is the only thread I could find on the matter, and it's becoming a big annoyance for me. It's NOT when I go into vibration mode or anything, it can be anytime - even when the screen is off.

I just tried this and you're right - the three vibrations. Perhaps it's by design but I can't see why.
Anyway it's nice to know how to do it on purpose; mind you I used to get it all the time with my old cheap case, with my new case it's never done it "by itself". It seemed a bit odd but I assumed the case was "pressing" both volume buttons when on standby from time to time (makes sense).
I've noticed when i'm putting the phone in my pocket (or out), i tend to grab it on the top with the volume buttons. And yes, it does vibrate when i accidentally press them.
Try it yourself.
Regards, clumsy long fingered dude.
Mine used to do this as well. It would be sitting on the desk not touching anything, screen off and it's just idling doing nothing on stock sense rom, then it would just vibrate randomly a few times. It was a bit spooky and it kept doing it randomly :/
It has since stopped doing that, no real reason I can see why, I have flashed LeeDroid but it stopped randomly vibrating before that.
I'm on AR HD and it's still doing it.
I'm not too bothered, but a fix would be nice.
If I keep randomly pressing buttons on the phone, it will make random vibrations. Sometimes one, two or three. I don't have to press the power button, the phone screen can be turned off, and the phone doesn't go into silent/vibration mode either.
I just played about with the volume buttons now and I got a bit of lag on my phone, lasted for about 15 seconds then went away...
Hi Guys,
Are any of you noticing a long delay after you press the power button? I feel like it can be a few seconds from when I press it to when the screen actually turns on. Not only is this incredibly annoying, but it also seems to be affecting phone calls. I am not able to answer/decline before my phone stops ringing in some situations.
Any way around this?
Thanks
u have setcpu ?
edit:
fyi i have setcpu with screenoff profile, but no delay
Or are you using Widget locker or widgetoid?
I just uninstalled widgetlocker... It was installed but not in use. I will see if this helps.
I am seeing the same issue. I am currently on gingerblur beta 5, and am still seeing the delay just like I was on stock. Very annoying.

Yea, still a bit of a delay. My captivate was instant on (as any phone should be)...
no delay here

I am seeing this occasionally and I am using WidgetLocker. Is there a setting I am using worng or is it just an known issue with WL on this phone?
I think WL is the culprit. My screen is MUCH quicker since uninstalling it.
I think he's talking about a delay from the time you push the power button to the time the screen turns on.
I had that happening to me for a couple days and it was really annoying. I did a power-off, then power back on and it seems to be back to normal for the past day. I never used WidgetLocker, so it couldn't be because of that.

I'm using WidgetLocker and fairly heavily modified...and it doesn't have a delay like this.
Never had it... then a couple days ago it started, then I just pulled the battery and its fine again
I noticed no delay initially, but after I installed widgetlocker I noticed a slight delay. I'm using the volume rocker to wake the screen typically.
no WL here, running launcher pro. I do notice an annoying delay. Not terrible, but still annoying
Yeah, sometimes getting a bit of a delay. Sometimes it takes as much as a minute for the screen to turn on (not reacting to button press). But generally, the phone catches itself after that, and everything is ok for a couple of days.
Every now and then, it would restart when this issue appears. Maybe once per week or so. No biggie for me.

Uh... I don't feel like powering my Nexus off to test but why do you care? It's probably firing up the display thinking you're about to turn it on but then you don't hold down the button long enough so it just turns the display back off. Why would you ever want to do this lol... at least with this phone you have to hold the power button down a few secs to turn it on unlike the nexus one, which just turns on at the slightest press of the power button (annoying)

How about you don't press the power button rapidly. There is absolutely no reason why you should be doing that. Its like saying "When I try to drive my car on its roof, it won't go!" Well of course not you sod. Just don't do the thing that is pointless and silly.

EXACTLY! same thing i feel. OP is making a big deal out of nothing; not even sure why you would try and push the power button fast when the phones off.
how hard can it be to understand, let's make a guide:
1. Turn your phone off
2. Press the on/off button a couple of times
3. look at the screen, is it flashing white?
I noticed this last night when i turned the phone off, i didnt do it on purpose.
So can someone please try because im worried thats something wrong with my new nexus!
Thanks
Just to satisfy your curiosity, I can confirm that mine doesn't do what you're saying.

my phone does not do that
you press the button once when it's off it will continue to boot all the way into the OS even if you hold or quickly trigger happy pressing the buttons all crazy it does not make it flash

First off, I can't reproduce it and I'm not going to waste any more time trying.
Second, here is a guide for YOU!
1) You accidentally did something silly to your phone and got a strange result.
2) Don't do that again.
3) Continue to not do the stupid pointless thing again.
4) Continue to continue not doing the stupid pointless thing again.
5) Continue to continue to continue not doing the stupid pointless thing again.
6) Stop trying to convince people this is a serious issue and get on with your life.
7) Realize that there is nothing wrong you just did something stupid with it and are continuing to try to reproduce the stupid thing you did once to prove that its a problem instead of avoiding the stupid thing you did once and getting on with your life.
To the OP: does it flash when you don't have the battery in? Just want to make sure... heh.
Hi all,
had issue after kitkat update, my display always turns on with delay 2 - 3 seconds when someone call.
Someone has the solutions for this.
It´s really annoying.
Thanks a lot
Same here! Very annoying even when the screen turns on eventually it is always on min. brightness and then slowly brightens up
Tried Hard reset - no go!

The brightness thing is what really annoys me. When you turn the screen on, it's always at minimum and you have to wait a second before it brightens up!

I think that is the stock ROM bug. I am on 20a version, can someone confirm this with stock ROM newer version? Did LG fixed this?
Have a similar problem with my SGS3 and drives me crazy.
Does this also happen when using double tap and the hardware power button too?

No, it happens only when receiving call . And I did some research it turns out that this is common isue for KK
I have a s7 att with all latest firmware and updates. When I'm in a call using bluetooth and I press the power button to turn the display off so I can slide it into my pocket. The display goes black then wakes again after about 3 seconds. Tried a factory reset, reboots and general troubleshooting. Even smart stay and proximity sensor. Even changed my case in case something was triggering it...
Any assistance?

The only work around I have found is to hit the home button, or leave the call app in any way, then lock the screen.
This is SUPER annoying!!!

One other thing that has helped was to turn on Keep Screen Turned Off under Settings>Display...
This bug still sucks and needs to be fixed though
I do that, i can litterly press the power button and screen will go black. Then a few seconds later its back on.
