screen freezing - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Happened three times today that from the state of sleep phone's screen couldn't be turned on. At last i had to force reboot the phone to make it work. is anyone else facing the same?

No. Doing totally fine with mine. Maybe you have some installed app that is freezing your phone

I have the same problem, happened 3 times so far in the past week. Did you find cause for this?

i am also facing this issue from yesterday, suddenly screen becomes full black and refuse to wake, after restarting also problem persists, sometimes screen remains on but didnt responses to touches, also turned off ambient display and also calibrated proximity and light censor but no luck
i m using black color made in china. purchased on day 1 from offline market (Vijay sales)

Sounds like exactly the same as my problem. I might have found "fix" for this. There seems to be a bug or something in ambient display setting. After I deactivated (few days ago) it from screen settings I haven't had problems.

I also had this problem and it usually happens when im using ambient display. Turning ambient display off now ang testing it. Hopefully an update fixes this.

i faced similar issue.. two times.. and i feel that it was due to ambient display..
I guess it happens when the ambient display is live, and quickly you try to unlock using fingerprint.
Though i didnt disable the ambient display yet, i just add delay if i need to unlock when ambient display goes live .
But if it bugs me still, ill try switching off ambient display..

That doesn't help at all, I performed "calibration" - which is in fact just test of proximity sensor and 10 minutes later my screen froze. The only workaround was to disable Ambient display. However it has been fixed in the November update, I'm using Ambient display without any issues now.

I have turned on my ambient display after the Nov update and so far so good. Has been a week since and no black screen.

OK, I did both activities at about the same time (calibration and update) and it works fine now - no freeze with "ambient" turned on.
So correct, I cannot say which action helped I am just glad it works

Gear Live won't turn screen off

Hi,
I'm having an issue with my Gear Live : sometimes the screen won't turn off (or dim) by itself. when I stop using it it will just dim slightly but still display the whole watch face and not get as dark as when it dims properly. It seems to happen randomly after I use it (with an "OK google" command or something) and then it will only turn off if I use the button or cover the screen. From the moment it starts acting up, it will never turn off automatically untill I reboot the watch...
Has any one else experienced this, or even have a solution ?
I hoped today's update would fix the problem but it didn't, so it keeps happily eating all the battery if I don't pay attention.
Thanks.

My wife and I each have a Gear Live. We've experienced this problem repeatedly over the last 2 years. Restarting the watch fixes the problem temporarily. Sometimes the problem will go away for months on end. Other times it happens over and for over days. I'm guessing it's some kind of hardware fluke on the Gear Live.

Active Display Issues

I am having trouble with the active display on my moto x 2013 lately.
The digits appear broken. They don't render completely. Some times they overlap.
I have tried factory reset but the issue still persists.
I have attached a screen shot of the problem I am facing.
Has anybody faced this issue before?
Looking for some assistance on how to fix this issue.
I have a similar issue where numbers start to overlap each other. I think it happens between 9-10AM most of the time if I remember correctly. Never bothered taking a picture but I might now that someone else is having a similar problem.

Mine is not restricted to a given time of the day. It happens randomly. I tried deleting cache, doing factory reset. it would fine for some time.

It's obvious not that serious of an issue but this is a terrible attitude to have about something you use daily and paid actual money for.
you are right,
but if it is still under warranty sent them to repair.
this is simplest solution :silly:
I have a bug too with AC: the 1st digit of the hour sometimes is 0 instead of 1, so when it's 17:34 i see 07:34, not always but it's annoying.
I've noticed mine only a few times, usually with the hours, not the minutes. I do specifically remember one time I woke up and looked at my phone, saw it says "1:00" and I was upset that I had slept in so late, but was very tired so I went back to sleep (it was already late, so what's another hour?). When I woke up later it was only 11:45. I guess it was actually either 10:00 or 11:00 when I woke up the first time, and the display was glitched for a moment. A reboot usually fixes it when issues persists.
I've also noticed that sometimes the Active Display does not vibrate when I touch it, or the lock ring will show up but no clock or notifications, even when they are pending and showing on the screen. If I touch the center of the screen the only icon I see is the bottom unlock, no notification text or the clock up top. Once I unlock it seems to flush it out and work fine after that. Lastly, sometimes the screen brightness gets goofy and seems much brighter than it should be, but it's rare.
If your phone is doing this a lot (I've noticed the clock issues maybe 10 times total over the last 14 months or so), I would look at getting it repaired or replaced.
mine actually just started doing this too. In my case the 1st digit after the : is not there. only seems to happen, or I only notice between 7am and 8am. usually unlocking fixes it, sometimes I need to restart.
Mine did this for the first time a few days ago. At 11:14 the active display said 1:141. I clicked the power button and it hasn't happened since.

Random screen wakes when phone is locked

Roote Zuk Z1 , running COS with latest update, i have this problem: phone display wakes up by itself after i lock the phone. What could trigger these wakes? Does anyone have the same problem?

Use original theme
I had the same problem. Get back to the original theme. And every thing will go us you like
Since the posting relates to my recent post - my quick update:
I am and I always was on stock theme - after rebooting my phone the problem seems to be solved for me-
since it doesn't wake again by itself.
I think it's something app related- I haven't found the one app that causes the trouble- Now I track all the apps I open to find out.
Well, guys, it seems it solved. One day, the phone was again waking by itself. I thought it might be related to the Adaptive Brightness. I deactivated the adaptive brightness, and phone went nuts locking by itself every time i was trying to wake him. No chance to power off or acces any menu. So i connected to PC, and using Lenovo ZUK toolkit i rebooted the phone. Since then, i haven t noticed the random wakes anymore.
Random wake
1. Turnoff autobrightnes
2 Turnoff doubleTap to wake
3, Turnoff "prevent random wakes "
Profit!
The issue doesn't seem to be fixed in the latest COS I have this issue. My device is STOCK and NOT rooted. With indeed autobrightness enabled it keeps unlocking when you reboot the problem is gone. Really frustrating ..
Hard Reset did the trick

Strange thing is if it appears to happen after a few days of usage without reboot I started to play a little bit with the settings and found out it really is the option "Prevent accidental unlocking with proximity sensor". The proximity sensor works flawlessly so it's really a software bug I guess.
same problem

Hey guys. Is this related to the random reboot problem. For 20 days my phone never rebooted even once, then it started rebooting. It is still doing so after the latest OTA. Is it a hardware problem or trying solutions mentioned here solved it for someone?

Phone freezes from time to time

Ok, lately having some weird behaviour and wonder if anyone else is suffering this. Sometimes when I get a notificationad try to unlock the screen it just stays black.It seems to still work but the screen isn not showing anything, only thing I can do is to hard reset it by holding the pwoer button after a restart it behaves normal again... Tried factory resetting it but no change... Anythign else I could try?

That is because you have turned on the Ambien screen. But I have problems with the proximity sensor and too much time the apps stoped and some things like that

Yeah, I am having similar issue too. My Mi A1 is now getting lagging now. Really disappointed, because its getting worst day by day.
True.. My ambient display is disabled and still i face regular (atleast once a day, sometimes more) freezes.. Only a reboot can recover the device.. Really irritating!
you are right, esp if you try to open within a few second upon whatsapp message arriv

you are right, esp if you try to open within a few second upon whatsapp message arrives (through fingerprint), the screen becomes unresponsive but phone works on background. Happened quite a few times now, somehow I would find approx. where could be the restart button and press for restart, quite strange, don't know what to do?!!!
I experience this issue only once (when I tried enabling Ambient display). With Ambient display off, I didn't have a single freeze or app crash. I reboot phone every few days due to updated Magisk/Xposed modules, maybe it helps a bit..?
Since the November update I am also getting freezes and some lag, which is very disappointing. So you are saying that if I turn of ambient display it will take care of the random freezing?
Cheers

Always on Display turning off randomly

Hey, I'm running the official Oreo build and I keep having this problem of the AoD randomly turning off completely and refusing to reactivate until I reboot the phone. Sometimes it will come back as randomly as it disappeared, but I can't really recognize a pattern since it always bugs me enough so I just manually reboot. Any solution or at least explanation?

Do you have a screen protector over the proximity sensor?
That has caused issues on devices in the past as recognizing it instead of through it

Not using a screen protector or obstructive case.
