Locking up requiring battery pull to reset

[S281]

Does anyone have the issue where when you go to wake the screen by hitting the power button and you hit the button twice by mistake, the screen will flash on for a quick second and then go dark. Then nothing will wake the phone back up again besides a battery pull to reset. Wondering if this common or not and there is a fix.

I've hit the button twice, but find if I wait 5 seconds or so before hitting it again, it comes back on. Haven't had to do a battery pull yet, no.

The only time I have has this issue is when I was using the stock browser. I stopped using it and switched to chrome and have not had the problem since. I do notice that when using the stock browser for flash content that it will still lock up when the screen will time out and I try to wake it too soon.

Not quite sure if that is the same issue you are having but for what it's worth.
