My note 2 has developed a annoying problem since the 4.3 update. It randomly turns the screen on when the phone is just sitting on the table/desk/whatever its on at the time. With no buttons pressed.
Its 1.5 years old
This never happened once before the 4.3 update.
this has now completely killed the battery dozens of time during the night when its turning the screen off and on dozens and dozens of times over the night.
It actually killed my poor stock battery(which granted was 1.5 years old so probably going anyways) from the repeated discharges and I replaced the battery(with a Samsung brand same model # battery) and the new one is doing ok but this is still happening.
I took my phone to a local cellphone repair place and he somehow was able to check the logs for my screen and told me on average while I was sleeping it was turning off and on between 100-150 times a night, no wonder I wake up more often than not late for work due to alarm not going off and phone being off and dead. He thought it might be the power button or the home button malfunctioning and triggering the screen so he tested both of them and according to him they are both ok. He then suggested I install a aftermarket rom as this only started happening after the 4.3 update so he thought it might be a software bug and that I should use a 4.2 based rom and that would probably solve the issue.
I think he is right and it would solve the issue BUT I have been trying to keep the phone stock OS. Is there any way I can un-update this thing back to 4.2??? or somehow solve this 4.3 update bug?
