Can't get out of lock screen, repeating connection problem banners, long wakeup delay
asked 2014-01-07 19:40:36 +0300
Had this thing today where waking up the screen (using short power key press or double tap) took anywhere in the 5–30s range. When the screen did turn on, there were repeating "Connection problem" banners that weren't fading out very smoothly. Trying to swipe out of the lock screen didn't respond, screen just eventually turned off again. It didn't improve for several minutes, so had to give it the 10s powerkeypress death grip to recover. 5–8 apps running, nothing too exotic iirc
[EDIT] I changed the order of the title as the main issue is that we can't get inside the phone to change the connection parameters for example. I added the double tap in the first sentence to wakeup the phone.
has happened to me a couple of times also. Both times after a swift from wifi to mobile data connection

For that I got an advice to cover the proximity sensor briefly to "wake the device up". That works also when the lock screen is unresponsive when I dig my phone from my purse.
