Screen wakes up itself and stays awaken
-
Hi! I have installed Ubports 20.04 on Xperia X. There is an issue with a screen. After the power off button was used to lock the screen, it turns off (gets black) but wakes up itself within 5 seconds, lock screen appears and stays awaken "forever". I tried to change the time of inactivity after which screen has to turn off but it doesn't change anything. Screen is always awaken, never goes off. I haven't found the case like this on the forum. Has anybody experienced the same issue?
-
I experience the same issue on my Xiaomi Redmi 3s Prime running Ubuntu Touch 16.04 (xenial).
-
@cheniek Did you have the correct version of Android installed before flashing UT? (This is necessary to have the correct drivers available to UT after flashing)
-
@arubislander Yes, it was android 8.
-
What update channel are you on currently?
-
@arubislander I'll be able to check it later this evening.
-
@arubislander The update channel is 20.04/arm64/hybris/stable. Is it what You asked for?
-
@cheniek Not exactly, but it does answer my question. You flashed the stable update channel.
You could try switching to the RC channel in Settings -> Update -> Cog wheel in the upper right corner. A new RC image was released just today.
-
@arubislander ok, I've just changed the channel to RC. The update is being downloading. I'll let You know if this update will change anything.

The update hasn't changed anything unfortunately.

@cheniek Then it would be interesting to hear if there are any other Experia X users experiencing the same. We'll have to wait and see.
-
@arubislander How about mirkok who wrote that has the same issue with his phone and ubuntu 16.04 installed on it?
-
@cheniek different phone with different version of the OS. Not really much to go on to extrapolate.
I am on a Pixel 3a on Focal for instance, and have never experienced what you describe.
-
@arubislander you say the the screen remains on only when on the lock-scteen? So if the device is unlocked then the screen does turn off eventually?
-
@arubislander when the phone is not locked goes off after 30 s. for instance and then get locked automatically and wakes up after 5 s. with locked screen.
-
@cheniek Then let's wait and see if there are any others.
-
@cheniek On the other hand, the issue must be quite annoying. Does your device have a fingerprint reader? Or is double tap to wake (dtfw) enabled?
-
@arubislander Xperia X has no fingerprint reader. The double click to wake screen up is not set.
-
@cheniek Then I am out of ideas.
If you are on Telegram, you could join the Xperia X group on UT. There are is a higher concentration of users of that device over there.

@arubislander thanks for the advice. I don't use Telegram at all but... maybe I will :).
