Since i've update my SGS to android froyo the Proximity sensor stoped working and the position sensor taken 30sec to turn the image...
I've used the test mode code to check hardware error, but there everything is working perfectly...
If I put the Android 2.1 the problem doesn't show up.
Does anyone have the same problem or solution?
Nobody has this issue?
Is quite strange... because if i put a Android 2.1 ROM everything works just fine, but with later version of android the sensors still working (using test mode from SGS Tools, I confirmed that the sensors are just fine), but the system takes a huge time (~30sec) to do something...
Please, if anyone knows anything that could solve this problem, please say something!
I think that in the first week that I had Froyo everything warked fine, but I'm not sure...
Is there any way to do a complete reset and set everything to default values including Hardware settings?
I've already done Factory reset and Full factory reset, by CWM and Code.
Nobody??? Anything???
Is this a genuine samsung rom you are using .
A flashed rom or a genuine Kies updated firmware .
jje
I'm now using a ROM official (sam***gfirmwares.co*) flashed by ODIN.
Should I try use Kies?
No i was just trying to rule out a flakey rom .
My usual suggestion is a wipe via ODIN

But i would stop at Eclair and see if its solved the problem if OK upgrade further .
jje
Its the same thing...
Its quite awkward, because only apendds in Froyo...
why not try a custom froyo rom, head over to doc's kitchen and cook yourself one up. also try lagfix, and any other speed up tweaks. how does the phone respond normally ?? without the sensors ? is it quite speedy or does it lag ??
The phone work just fine but when i turn the phone it take a lot of time to twist the image... I can even still interact with the screen until it turns...
The proximity sensor takes a lot of time too...
No one else has this problem?

Hi there
I want to ask you about strange thing a saw after flashing my SGS with any other ROM than my stock PLUS GMS 2.1 Eclair JM2... It's a branded rom which i had when i bought phone in my shop. When i flash any other ROM (like Darky's or Doc's rom) GPS can't catch cold fix... Has problems with lock and sometimes it takes long time to see any satelites... When it get a fix, hot fix are ok later, but after about hour it has again problems with fix... Thats a little annoyng cause on branded ECLAIR GPS works great... I'm always making a wipe and format system before flash a new rom ald flashing roms with wipe option built in... Currently using Doc's v6.2 XXJPY 2.2.1 and same issues - problems with fix after no using gps... The worst is in the morning, after no using gps in more hours... Restarting GPS, restarting GPS status, and fighting with it and sometimes i cant catch fix gps in about 10 - 20 minutes or more... GPS isn't broken i thing if it's working on my stock branded rom... In LbsTestMode everything is seted up corrrectly... On flashed for test JPP radio (someone tells me that is best for GPS) where same problems... Is that normal after wipe that GPS needs few days to work properly? please help me anyone...
Having the same problem. Used pure JPY, GPS was blazing fast and acurate. Now with Doc 6.2 can't even lock to satelites.
if no one helps the only thing will be to flash stock JPY, and apply CWM and kernel with lagfix... But it may not helps... really no one knows whats going on with gps issues after wipe/flash?
Flash this via cwm and see if that fixes your GPS:

Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
nope... didn't help... same problem...
Try this then:
http://db.tt/O5ompue
Flash via CWM then do another reboot.
If that fails, I give up
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
seems that it locks quite fast... 'll check again morning... but somethings strange. after few minutes of working gps is automaticly turning off? why? if im not moving and phone is not used and not moving it is normal?
i'm glad you're getting a quick lock with GPS now. As for your new problem, that is either application or settings related.
Hey guys I just flashed Darky's Rom v8.1 on my Samsung Captivate and i really like it but I have two problems. The first one is an auto rotation opposite rotation problem. The screen auto rotates the 90 degrees the wrong way so if i hold it vertically, the screen is horizontal. I calibrated the horizontal axis but it didnt work. The only solution I have found is to turn off auto rotation but then i cant use the qwerty keyboard when emailing or texting. My second problem is that when i download apps it restarts into the Darky's rom screen and reboots back to the home screen with the app no where to be found. Is there anyway you guys can solve one or both of my problems, or even suggest a better rom because im up it P.S. please keep in mind this is my first android phone and Im more or less a noob with this phone (not technology but just the phone)
Sounds like a bad flash.
You can, reflash the rom
Our try a different one
What kernel are you using?
I have not used darkeys but this is not a common issue with the rom
Darkyy

The problem you have with autorotation is because you loaded Darkyys ROM from the I9000 forums. To resolve this issue, use a captivate Kernel. Use the K12O kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893880
Flash it in CWM Recovery.
Hopefully your second problem gets resolved after resolving the first issue. I have Darkyys 8 and using it with the SpeedMod kernel, without any issue..
@rickysa2000 your kernal worked amazing and my phone is mega fast and the auto rotation is back to normal but I still can't download an app successfully. Since i downloaded the kernal, half the time the download is successful and installs and half the time it goes back to the Darky's screen but for both, the app still isn't on my menu. Maybe I'm just being dumb and it's right under my nose, but either way I still cant find it!
Try this
Go to settings
Applications
Manage
market
Clear data
I tried it and it didnt work. I also tried to download other apps besides quadrant standard and that sent it into the darky's screen as well. Any other suggestions? Is there a place where I can see my downloads besides the pull down menu (which doesn't show it) to see if it got downloaded to some obscure place?
Just an idea, but why not download gaskets from the captivate section, and flash it again. I have never encountered your issue but if I did I would either reflash, or flash stock then reflash
Try flashing ytt3r's Captivate port, as he mentioned fixing several bugs present in the I9000 version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10133066&postcount=1
(it's the big "DOWNLOAD HERE" link)
Thanks everyone! I'm downloading the newest Darky rom from ytt3r but for the mean time I just flashed phoenix which works great. But as I was flashing it, I noticed a nice scratch. AHHHH

I have had the same problems with auto rotation on some Darkys roms and others, I reflalshed the roms , it seemed to fix the problem. I am running Darlys 8.1 fash, good battery life and now bugs with no-wipe flash.
Hello.
Im having the weirdest problem and i am going insane.
In Gingerbread roms,stock or custom (darky rc3,rc4,CriskeloRom) when i try to make a call or when i receive a call,the screen turns immediately black and never ever wakes up.
No button works,nore do they lit,nothing...
I have to pull out the battery and restart.
Some times when i plug the cable in kies mode,its ok,it comes back the screen but thats seldom.
I tried to keep the screen on,nothing...
This happens only in gingerbread,if i return to froyo,everything is ok.
PLEASE HELP ME
Wait for official Gingerbread .
jje
You could try installing the official (NEE) Gingerbread.
Or flash back to 2.2 and forward from there.
thanx guys but did that too...
i installed official ginger xee and the same thing...in froyo everything works ok.
insane!!!!
Sucks to hear Hope it will be ok when the official Gingerbread gets released for your country. Allthough that probably wont work either.
ps. how do you update from Froyo to Gingerbread? Odin? Maybe try updating from Froyo with KIES using the registry spoofing tool and then installing NEE.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835628
No such issues for me, had stock JVK now on stock JVB. Remove any lag fixes and do a factory reset + Format SD card and try.
i have done everything!!! everything.im no noob in flashing bussiness.
i have tried almost all roms in xda in froyo,i like flashing but that is one of its kind...
i dont know...i will wait for a fix(?).
maybe an update version on ginger?
i repeat,in froyo or even eclair,everything works perftectly.
i even restored my efs file,my csc code...nothing...

Dont know why its happening but im on 2.3.3 rom and I did install the with bootloader version.
Been working fine since this morning but its getting more and more tempremental and I havent made any changes either.
Anyone know what could be wrong?
you'd better flash to any froyo rom,if the issue is still happen,your phone may have a hardware problem
Factory reset first .

Hi there,
the proximity sensor on my i9000 isn´t working anymore. Everytime I place a call/get called the screen turns black and freezes. I have to pull the battery and restart it.
Testing the sensor on the LCD-test the screen turned green and the i9000 startet vibrating. Here, too only pulling the battery made it stop.
Here is what I tried so far:
- flashing different stock fw (Android 2.2 / 2.3.x)
- applied handicapped settings
- Using Proximity_Screen_Off App and Sanity-App on stock fw
- blowing air into the USB jack/vacuuming the jack
- opened the device to mechanically clean the sensor
All of the above failed!
The only way I can get it to work is when running android 2.3.7 Joker´s MiUi and run the Proximity_Screen_Off App.
Are there any other suggestions as to what can be tried?
Else I will have to get a new motherboard, because wouldn´t want to be restricted to using only one particular rom.
Any input is greatly appreciated
Thanks Christine
if i recall good (but kill me ive drinked some atm) the greensih issue was showing with voodoo color kernels and all the sensor peoblems came with badly assembled kernel.
so i would advice you to reflash pure 3 file firmware (repartition pit and all that jazz)
and if your sensors still would not work just reflash to your carrier or stock formware for your region and push it to repair center with proper dwscription (do no mentions miui or other crap)
Thanks for answering!
I flashed 3-part firmware, pretty much everything available and a CF-Root kernel.
So it couldn´t have been a bad kernel.
Can´t take it back to service, no warranty left.
I just flashed 2.3.5 and CF-Root and now I am fooling around with it some more.
I just think it´s weird that it would work with that and only that MiUi.
impossible unless youve got some other galaxy variaant than i9000
