This bug is not in powerd itself, it's usually caused by the amount of events that are either on hold before suspending, or that are triggered after resuming back (which makes the device to take a while to fully resume back).
We landed quite a few changes as part of OTA3 that reduced such events (battery, console, etc), which improved quite a bit. I still saw this happening once, but then wasn't really able to reproduce it anymore. ** Changed in: powerd (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to powerd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1429887 Title: Pressing power button to resume does not turn on screen Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products: New Status in powerd package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: [filing here although may be other components] Mako running 211 from rtm I experienced these symptoms which have been previously mitigated in other scenarios. Last week while traveling and roaming this happened pretty much 100% of the time. This occurred in all areas (hotel, MWC, outside, etc) Press power button, no response Press button again, screen turns on for a few seconds then turns off Press button again, either phone resumes or more often the power dialog is shown When I returned back home the function was normal without reboot or other changes. The differences in environment: Roaming on foreign GSM network Lots of Wifi APs not connected Attached are some perhaps relevant logs, unfortunately the syslog rolled.
