7.1.2 volume/lock - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, it's been a little while since I've had any problems with my XT1575 but I flashed crDroid's 7.1.2 last June and loved it. About 3 months ago I started having a problem where my ringer randomly goes out of vibrate mode and goes to the first notch of volume. I thought nothing of it and disabled the side rocker, but it keeps happening. I can push the lock screen button on the side a bunch of times and watch it happen. I also noticed that when this happens, the screen will bypass the lock screen and just open whatever app I was in last (or the home screen if I exited the app before I turned the screen off)
It's obviously something in the software so I flashed the 20171119 version with the November security patch and it's still happening. I then did a factory reset, reflashed everything over again, and cleared the Davlik Cache and it didn't fix it. This is very annoying because even if I put it in "do not disturb" mode it still turns the volume up.
What do you guys think?

[Q] "black screen of death" and first step to solution

Hi there,
Many of you know that nexus 4 is experiencing random "black screen of death". What happens is that the phone freezes while in sleep (stand-by) for long time, for example over night. It is not a complete freeze, as the notification light keep blinking (if there are notifications); when you call the phone the caller hears a proper "ringing" tone (so the phone is not off), but the nexus 4 itself doesn't make any sounds. Alarms also don't sound, which makes Nexus 4 a horribly unreliable alarm clock.
The only way out of the freeze is holding the on/off button for 10 sec, which turns off the phone, and then holding it again for usual 1-2 sec to turn the phone back on.
What I discovered is that these freezes happen 1-3 times a week, but only if I have pattern password on lock screen. When I turn password off (so I have the "slide to unlock"), freezes are gone. Maybe this information will help others, or provide some insight to a complete solution to the problem? Does anybody have other experiences with black screen of death on their nexus 4?
Just a note, I have stock but rooted nexus 4. Internet reports that these problems happen on stock unrooted, stock rooted, custom roms, even on phones freshly out of factory reset with no apps installed.
Here are some threads talking about the problem:
Google Product forum
AndroidCentral Forums
I've always been on SlideToUnlock and mine has been doing that for some time since I started playing with custom roms (w/root)
What fixed it for me was to disable the PlayStore "Auto Update Apps".

[Q] Volume rocker stops working

Has anyone else noticed that for some strange reason, the volume rocker doesn't change the volume level?
It happened for the first time on my new Crystal today, and did before with my old one as well. On my old phone it was that it would stop working and would work again after turning the screen on and off. Now with my new one, it didn't start working until I restarted the phone.
I've had mine since this past October. This happened to me for the first time last night. A reboot fixed it. I was using either vlc at the time or playerpro.

Screen randomly stays blank after hitting power button N900

I've got a strange problem with my Sprint Galaxy Note 3.
What's happening is that randomly when I hit the power to turn the screen back on, it will do nothing then the screen will stay blank. The phone clearly still works because if I'm on a call or listening to music it will still keep playing and the volume and other buttons continue to work.
When that happens I hold down the power to turn the phone off and then on and it boots up normally.
Rarely what will happen is the same behavior except the screen will go strangely green after I hit the power button, making the phone unusable until an off/on.
This happens sometimes multiple times a day, sometimes days without happening.
Phone is rooted, running OC5 on Android 5.0. Problem has been happening for months. Haven't made any system upgrades or installed any major apps so that isn't it. I'm thinking it is some kind of loose pin/wire but don't want to crack the phone open without a plan.
Any help appreciated!

Screen won't turn off during phone calls

I use my phone a ton for calls , imagine that .
Lately when I put a call on speaker, the screen will not turn off. It will not time out and even if I press the power button to shut the screen off manually, it just comes right back on.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so have you been able to correct it?
p.s. this has only been happening in the past week or so and I can't think of anything I did or any updates that would have caused this.
Thanks
I'm experiencing this same thing. Tried multiple things and even did a hard reset and the issue still persists. Very annoying.
I found a workaround where if I come out of the phone app, then I can lock the screen.
got the same thing. i read something on AC( think it was) regarding the calendar notifications not allowing the screen to go dark too. i wake up, my phone is super hot if i have an all day appt with a notification. did yall find a fix to this? the other forum mentioned possible connection to samsung pay.
Having the same issue. The screen does not turn off when holding the phone to my ear or when I'm using bluetooth headset.

July update - screen turning on for no reason

Hello guys,
Has anyone faced random screen turning on after July update? The screen just turns on as if I pressed the sleep button, no notifications, no nothing. I did a factory reset after upgrading.
It doesn't happen often, maybe 2-3 times when I noticed it, but my concern is how often it happens when I'm not paying attention.
