Nokia 8.1 freezing again
Year 2019 has seen Nokia 8.1 freezing every day dozens of times with series of lock unlock exercise to make the screen work again.
After an update, don't know which one, the problem went away on its own.
There was peache for quite some time until June 1, 2020 security update.
It has brought the issue of screen freeze back from the deads.
Makes me hate my device and decision to go back to "trusted" Nokia.
But I know this is fixable. So why don't you folks at Nokia and Google please solve this for me and my brothren using Nokia 8.1.

My nokia 8.1 also freezing since last update..charging speed is also decreased..100% takes 2 hour15 mins while earlier it took 1:30 hr..pathetic nokia ..patch this bugs
Freezing issue and battery drain issue after jun 2020 update..
Same here
Hello Nokia,
Most of the users are having this screen freezing issue in nokia 8.1. But still it's not resolved. Please fix this issue
Yes, nokia should fix this issue ASAP! I'm facing this problem only while browsing and happens very often. I thought nokia might fix it in the August patch but they didn't. Hoping this issue to be resolved with the september security patch
Same thing happening with my nokia as well. Screen gets non responsive, freezes, then only workaround is lock/unlock the phone. Nokia customer support is not helping as well.
same thing is happening with my phone
with me google chrome removed the problem when freezing and other internet explorer on it
That freezing is happening quite frequently now.Also device has become laggy.
Kindly help to fix this major issue once and final.
@HMDLaura
In my nokia 8.1 tap to wake does not work
Yes, the issue is on wide scale! People at Nokia should do something about it.
My Nokia 8.1 also freezing, and is happening quite frequently now.
Some months ago I asked support by chat and they told me how to switch to "Verified or Secured Boot" mode with only programs witch come in firmware, to verify if installed programs freezing phone. But after 1-2 hours in this mode its also happening.
Nokia, Please, correct it. Pixel 4a (or equivalents) is looks like my next Android Phone... if not...
My nokia 8.1 had the same issue too, and since the december android 10 patch (9 days ago), it did not freeze any longer (ok, 1 minor bug occurred, but did not need to turn off/on the screen to recover)... What about yours?
Unfortunately, the screen freeze occurred a couple of hours after my post... :(
SystemUI crashing/not responding and screen freeze happening a lot after December update.
Same freezing issue facing many times in a day.
Have you ever tried to send it back to nokia for repair? On mine, it occurred only once on the last 2 weeks, so i'm wondering if it's worth returning it, although it's still under warranty...
I will format the phone. Will update if problem is solved or not.
Screen freezing issue is still present in Nokia 8.1 even after upgrading to Android 11. It looks like @HMD Global isn't intended to fix this old age issue.
Yes, it is fixed in the march security patch. But right after updating to A11 screens freezing started again.
Great news. Has it now been "switched off" completely after the display turned on sporadically under Android 10?
Has anyone tried to transfer data via Bluetooth 5 - i.e. that the transmitter and receiver have Bluetooth 5?
If tap to wake and Bluetooth transfers don't work, then my 8.1 is really ready for the scrap heap! Thanks HMD! Paid over 300 € and less than 1 whole year the device worked without problems/bugs...!
Hi guys, I'm still on Android 10 but I fixed this problem , for android 10 I don't know about android 11,just off in setting display over other apps , turn off google
I hope for some people it's helping
Lol
Same is happening with me even after latest Android 11 upgrade.
I started experiencing the touch screen freezing issue after recent updated to android 11. I need to push stby button and wake it up in order to be able to use touch screen. It is totally annoying. I tried complete factory reset but problem persists.
Lol
Anyone here facing the issue while using 3 finger gesture swipe control , can't touch the area little up to the navigation bar / over the navigation bar if any button it there, please update.
No issue here.
