Going to vibrate automatically?

Some time after I upgraded to froyo, i started finding my phone switched to vibrate mode few times per day. I haven't touched anything, it just goes to vibrate without obvious pattern or reason...
anyone else?
p.s.
i've installed quite few programs since the upgrade as well, so cant be sure its froyo...
but dont feel like uninstalling one by one to locate the problem...

I'm running Froyo leak from day 1 and never occurd this issue. Froyo is running perfectly some problems with few apps but not that big. It has to be a app that you installed.

No problems here with things changing that I didn't change.

screen is acting weird

Im rooted, and oc at 1100. Havent done anything different lately except added Softlocker. Its kind of unresponsive. I have to hold down longer sometimes, but not by much. (just enough to dive me nuts lol). Any ideas why?

Not that i have an answer but.. mine is the same way for the first several minutes(i don't know how many) after i re-boot. It only started happening after i OC'd to 1100. Usually it gets to being normal after a while. Yes it is annoying..

Do you have soft locker installed? After I deleted it and rebooted it seems fine. So far at least lol.

This is a know issue if you use one of the OC kernels. Just turn your screen off and wait a few seconds and then turn it back on. Your screen will be back to normal.

No, I've had that. It's slightly different. Softlocker removal worked for me.

Weird "soft restart" / force close???

I am using JVQ Sensation Rom with the JVQ semaphore kernel atm.
I sometimes get some weird "soft restart" / force closes.. no idea how to better name this issue.. let me describe:
The Phone screen turns black, phone vibrates one time shortly, then it comes back to life - media scanner is running, my connection bars show a "stop sign" like they do before or when you don't enter your pin at start.. but shortly afterwards the normal connection bars are shown and I do not have to enter my pin.
If I listen to MP3 or had some other app open at the time of these "soft reboots" they are no longer open and the mp3 playback stops when this reboot occurs.

Does anyone have a clue what this could be? I dumped logcat into a file and looked through it myself, but couldn't really find anything on my own.
I cannot really reproduce this error, but it usually happens when I do had a few apps running or had recently used the phone it seems.
I am thinking maybe it could be the garbage collector / memory free thingy that then kills the launcher or something - could that be it?
Or is this known problem or smth? I don't really know what to search for in the search function - I'm sure anyone had this before, but no idea how to find a thread about this error.

Bump this. I was on a vibrant rom (revolution) I have a captivate. I used darkcore kernel and jk4 modem. Worked fine for a while...but did that a couple times a day while I was listening to Pandora on my bt headset.

It's a problem, started from 2.3.3
This problem,affecting all 2.3.3 releases!!
There is also a thread in Q & A section but not many people paid attention to it.
Every 'now and then' phone slows down for moments, till the point that, it reboots itself or give force close or freezes so you have to turn it off.After reboot, it good to go again for ~3-4 days and then again same thing happens.
I read in some threads that darky rom also has this problem but I don't think its darky rom problem but stock Gingerbread itself has something wrong.
If it does not reboot and you don't power it off then you have to wait ~1-2 minutes before its comes back respond.
1. SD card formatting, already ruled out in thread in Q & A. I formatted the card but it simply happens again.
2. Less RAM can also be ruled out as I tried to open as many apps possible without closing them but Gingerbread was doing memory management very well and no freezes.
Expert please give your opinion, how can we get it fixed.

[Q] [ROM][ICS 4.0.3][Unoffical Port] AOKP Build23 Q/A

Hi there everybody
I've installed [ROM][ICS 4.0.3][Unoffical Port] AOKP Build23 by vibranturk ROM.
Problems I found
1. android.media.process crashing always /almost every minute/
2. cant get in to market /meaning couldn't install any app yet/
3. cant get in to gallery
4. cant get in to music player
4. cant take secreenshot by default setting
5. sound is enabled but doesn't work. /not even play ringtones /
6. screen brightness not enough for day light
7. cant take photo by camera /android.media.process crashing/
Actually ROM is amazing. But without market its feels nothing.
Has anybody have same problem and about how to solve etc?
PS: I flashed 2 times.

You should start from fresh cuz not one problem that you stated has occured to me.....only bug is that when i reboot the batt % is off..
market works perfectly
...everything does atually
idk but just start fresh and wipe wipe wipe between flashes
i wipe before and after the flash
even flash twice just to make sure
***Dont mind the sig pic... im running this rom at the moment and its working flawlessly

Use Glitch v14, the included has some slight lag and glitch fixed it up. You can also LiveOC which allows for overclocking of the CPU and GPU.

signal
Has anyone found the solution for the gray\blue signal switching? So far as I can tell it is caused by the wifi; whenever I go from mobile network to wifi data, the signal bars go gray. The only work-around has been to switch airplane mode on and off. Would switching to the newly released glitch kernel do the trick?
EDIT: I have found out the Google services problem (gray vs. blue signal) is only happening when I join a network which requires a redirect authentication OR if the power saver is enabled.

Just got this phone and flashed it with - AOKP Build23 by vibranturk ROM
I have been reading for awhile now before I received the phone. Thanks vibranturk for all the development here! Excellent roms!
1) When I start the camera app from app on homescreen and from unlock - the phone goes into a black screen
The camera app worked fine again after a reset (just turning off and back on) but after awhile it does the same thing - black screen.
During the black screen, I can press the home button to return back to homescreen
** Resetted again, and all seems well at the moment and still fine after 1 hour!
2) I am not sure if this is the rom or just my screen. Did not notice it at first when i flashed the rom. Turning on the screen to unlock the phone, ie when the light starts, i get this bright green full screen flash for like a second. It does not happen everytime and no pattern of when it happens either.
Anyone else having these problems?
Can someone please update the 'AOKP thread in Captivate Android Development' with my issues, just trying to help with the development.
For the signal blue/grey thing, Seems like it goes blue for me when i have data signal coming in, either wifi or data enabled - lights up both wifi signal (only if wifi is on) and signal bars blue.
I have power saver is enabled as well.

My only issues so far are: vibrate + sound doesn't work, touch screen is over sensitive on certain games, and sometimes using Swype in messaging doesn't input if app was already in foreground when replying.(can be fixed by minimizing and reopening the app) otherwise it's works great. fast/smooth and great battery life.

Possessed Touch Screen Galaxy Mini and some other issues

I have some weird problem to fix on my girlfriends Samsung Galaxy Mini GT-5570
Firstly, touchscreen works OK, then suddenly it starts acting like possessed, it detects random touches over the screen, it clicks things, moves things, etc, then it backs to normal and works perfectly for a while and then horror starts again......
Sometimes it even doesn't detect touch, but locking/unlocking makes it work again.
And sometimes it even unlocks it self.
These actions help when touchscreen go crazy:
- Reboot - sometimes touchscreen problem gone for a few hours, but sometimes it still here
- Lock/Unlock
- Rapidly entering the menu after unlocking (if the touchscreen is still a bit usable to do that)
I tested it while normal work with different applications, and these results are perfect, even better than on my brand new LG P350.
It's fluid, precise, no dead spots, multi touch also works.
I done Wipe data and cache, I flashed S5570XWKTN firmware (Android 2.3.6) and there is result: it longer works normally but it still sometimes go crazy.
So I think that touchscreen needs replacement, but I'm not sure. I don't have money to throw away, in case that problem is not related with touchscreen.
Is there any solution?
It also have problem with weak signal, if network signal is low, while other devices have one-two bars, this guy have noone. Reflash didn't helped.
Is there a way to improve internal antenna?
Also can someone recommend me a good stable and fast ROM for it?
Thanks in advance for any help.
