    Droid 2 screen not unlocking issue

    After u don't touch ur phone for a bit the screen goes dark or u can turn the screen off yourself with the bottom on the top right. Well lately I click to button to turn on my screen and nothing will happen. Sometimes it will ewntually light up after like a minute, or if I click it repetitively every couple seconds. Other time it will all of a suddem start powering on as if it had been turned off (which i hadn't had it turned off nor did I have low battery) the phone rebooting itself could be due to my repetitive clicking of the screen button. Anyone else have this problem? It's driving me insane. The phone is 3 months old, it shouldn't be doing this especially considering it's a smart phone.

    Do you use an antivirus or task killer? Have you installed any new apps recently? Do you over or under clock your phone?

    No anti virus or task killer. What do u mean when u say over or under clock it? And I was thinking it might be an app too but ny mom has the same phone and she's had the issue too. Not as bad or as frequent aa mine happens but it is happening to her. And she doesn't use the phone much so she has very few apps.

    Mine does this too. A lot of peoples D2 does this. Its a bit annoying but I live with it. Mine was doing this often. Then I uninstalled my antivirus and it didn't do it as much. I happens once a week on my phone. Is your phone rooted?

    My phone did this for 15 minutes this morning before I finally took the case off and took the battery out because the screen wouldn't turn on. This is getting incredibly annoying and seems to be a common problem from what I can tell.

    My phone isn't rooted. But beside the not unlocking issue, today my phone randomly turned itself off an back on on me. I was in the middle of typing a text message, probably half full battery or something, and as I was typing it just turned itself off then immediately started turning back on. This is getting extremely annoying considering how its a "smart" phone. I could buy a 20 dollar flip phone and it wouldn't do this ....but then of course I would get extremely bored haha.

    Sounds like a hardware issue to me, however if you cant replicate it in front of a verizon sales person they wont do anything about it. See if you can find some way to replicate it and show it to verizon or just get used to it.

    Me and my wife are having the same issues as well. Anyone take their phones back and get new ones because of this issue?

    I am wondering if the people with this problem have ever used the no lock app?

    For me this isn't a problem I can live with so I been trtying to figure a solution.

    Uninstalling no lock and wiping data and cache seemed to work so far.
