So does anyone elses phone ever randomly freeze when you try to lock it, take a screenshot, and then won't lock for like 3 minutes? It's not a big deal it's just a hassle to constantly deal with. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yeah I had the no lock and freezing "issues" I never had the screen shot problem tho. I never use touchwiz launcher either tho. When I first flashed a couple of themes on sfc rom my phone wouldn't ever lock when I pushed the power button but I do think it did when I just let the screen shut off on it's own. my phone really only froze up on me when I overclocked it to 1.3ghz. When in doubt wipe both caches and reflash.

Also what are you running on your phone? Will help others to see if issues are consistent to certain roms/themes/mods or just randomesss.

I have had my phone do that, some launchers take a screen shot when you press the back key and the lock button simultaneously. I think sometimes these soft keys "get stuck", causing that. I know I've had it happen to my home key too, causing the task manager to keep popping up (very annoying).

Usually mashing the problematic key a couple times clears it up and it acts normal again. Mind you, this only happens every now and then.

Oh, and I say some launchers because I have been running AOSP launcher for a decent while now.
