Hi every one.I have a captivate.When i buy,this captivate is on phoenix rom.Anything is allright but problem is : when i have a text message.If i don't see this message,the light of 4 button is always on.I try to isntall spendi rom and the problem is too.My question is my captivate have the problem or every captivate have the same problem.Thx!
Only a few ROMs have that feature built-in. Not really sure how to turn them off at the top of my head though...
look for either BLN or Blinky in your app folder, then disable it.
it's not a problem, it's a kernel feature called "bln" or "back-light notification". there should be an app on the phone to manage it but they dont always work. you can always find a kernel that does not have bln at all if it bothers you.
Holy moley! I totally forgot about BLN/Blinky. Thanks for that, I've just learnt something new as well!

go into recovery mode there must be an option in your rom just hold your power button several seconds when you see the extented power menu just select recovery once in recovery select the advance kernel options you have(like advance speedmod ) using up and down volume button to select once in there you will see BLN just select it again and disable it and then reboot your phone.
note: up and down volume buttons to navigate selections power button to select.

Hi guys,
i flashed my sgs with super optimised kernel 3.7 from 3.6 .... = bad news ... i realised that my home button does not work anymore so i have to use the back button instead of home button it took me many hours to figure and fix my sgs but still no home button working but at least my sgs did not turn into a paperweight.
below are the series of events that happened (i tried to put it in order as much as possible)
- home button stopped working
- alot of FC'ing
- sgs kinda like jammed or stuck
- did a full reflash from step 1 [HOWTO] Froyo FW I9000XXJPM: Upgrade via Odin, Root, Recovery 2e, Lagfix! several times !
- flashed a couple of times but when phone enters recovery mode after 1st flash i cant select wipe data/cache cos home button not working so phone was turned off and entered download mode then flashed JPM.
- also tried to flash in 3.6 version kernel couple of times to overwrite 3.7
- here are some stuff i saw along the way :
--there were occasions i see a mobile logo with arrow pointing to pc (just like the background pic of recovery menu but no menu till i unplug usb)
--after reflash when it enters recovery mode automatically it will then not show menu and android logo with a caution sign was seen but when usb cable is unplugged recovery menu comes back but still no luck to wipe data/cache cos home button not working
--instead of seeing recovery 2e , 3e was shown but then again i cant select wipe data/cache due to home button not working
i'm sure many reading this is figuring how i managed to enter recovery or download mode without the home button ???
-- just hold vol up/down + power button home button is not needed in my case !
while in recovery menu, i cant select or do anything with home button except moving vol up/down button to highlight selection but cannot "enter" with home button so i turned the phone off and continued flashing JPM and it works.
but while inside the 3.6 or 3.7 kernel, i can move up or down using vol switch and how did i manage to "enter" selection without home button ? i discovered that the power button does the "enter" !
home button was working intermittently but it comes with double click where you bring the last 6 used apps and task manger selection .. but now it does not come up anymore. still can feel the click on the home button but no response as for now.
also flashed several times as mentioned with re-partition ticked to try to wipe everything but still same results.
so now i have ended up with :
PDA : I9000XXJPM
Phone : I9000XXJPM
CSC : I9000 OXAJPM
Build info : 2010.10
Baseband : I9000XXJPM
Kernel Version : 2.6.32.9
[email protected] #19
Build Number : FROYO.XXJPM
i have also tried many ways such as formatting sd, system, basically almost every menu in the kernel ! basically i wiped out previous data (my guess) but all the apps + data are gone. it was a PITA process.
now it is just the freaking home button does not work anymore ! but nevertheless quadrant still shows 2216 ! and the phone is still blazing fast .
hope someone could help out i have tried to do the search function but not much luck related to my issue.
i have the same problem .... my home button is dead as well -.-'
Flash back to an Eclair firmware. See if that changes anything.

Hi Guys,
Just flashed Darky's 9.3 ROM to my I9000 phone, everything was great but just cant find any information on what does the "Download" option does for you when u select it at the menu where u "Press and hold the Power button".
Would really appreciate anyone who will reply and like me know what it does.
Thk's.
It puts your phone in Download Mode. That is used to flash ROMs from your PC (eg. with ODIN)

ok, instead of using the hardware buttons to select an option, itshould let you use the capacitative buttons on the bezel.
If you use the volume button to highlight your selection, then i think its either the menu or home capacitative button(the ones on the screen bezel), which will make the selection for you.
Hope it helps.

thanks for reading and replying...i already tried what u r suggesting but didn't work..
i just used a new pit file and now it gets stuck on galaxy tab written on screen...

If you still go to download mode. Then go back to stock using roto jmi rom. Refer to the overcome thread to find out how to flash and get necessary pit file.

No. i9000
I've found that sometimes going to "advanced-->reboot recovery" and then "reboot phone" sometimes fixes this. Everything seems pretty hit-and-miss though, you sometimes just need to mess around and flash the hell out of it.
Hi guys
I have my old Note 1 but I can't seem to get the lockscreen working after flashing any tw ROMs at all. I mean it boot straight into home screen and not setup comes up before hand. There is not lock screen even if options are in settings. Any help or explanation would be appreciated. Tried flashing numerous stock ROMs via recovery or Odin and still same. ROM boots up and goes straight to home. Also power button doesn't bring up the options to reboot or power off etc the phone just turns off right away. Thanks
hi i think there is no power button options on stuck rom.

Mate you still get options when you long press it like power off and reboot.....the problem I have is that soon as I press power button phone goes off and I have no lock screen at all. After Odin flash or via recovery I don't get Samsung set up it just goes straight to home screen
ok bro. i dont know about this. maybe you can try to install a stock based modified rom or anothers. maybe works

Have you as a last resort tried using Odin and a pit file so it relays and wipes clean EVERY partition just in case its a setting gone wrong in a location that standerd flashing doesn't cover?
