[Q] Problem with Vibration - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there.
Recently istalled custom Froyobread in my Xperia X8, and after that i installed GingerDX. That means that now I have GingerDX. The situation is that I am trying to change the vibration option (Settings --> Sound --> Vibrate) from "Only in Silent mode" to "Always" but it changes back to "Only in Silent mode" at no reason. I've also noticed that while i receive an sms it does NOT vibrate in any occasion. Is there already a solution or the developers working on that?
Thanks in advance, sorry for my english.

If you come from other versions of Android to Gingerbread,this may cause bugs. So you must full wipe and install the ROM again.Remember to backup your things.

You mean if i come from OLDER version of Gingerbread to Gingerbread? Well, i did all kind of wipes the first time, including Full wipe and battery statistics wipe. Is there an easier way? The situation is that i've already installed a lot of apps that I need and it will take me a lot of time to install them again, except if you know a way to install the apps again at no time.

No,for example from Eclair, or Froyo, you must full wipe. And I don't think there is any other way to restore apps quickly. Not 100% sure,suggestions, people?

For vibration in messages and to calls go to Messages -> Settings -> Notification Settings and there you can see Vibrate settings section , just check the vibration , the vibrate pattern and vibration in call.Also check the 'vibrate always' from Sound section in Settings.

As I said in the first post, this is what I do, but when I exit to the main screen and return to Settings-->Sound-->Vibrate at the same time, I see that it has changed by itself to "Only in Silent Mode". It changes by itself, this is the problem.

You need to delete the /dbdata/databases/com.teslacoilsw.widget-locker file. That should fix the problem you are having with the settings, and maybe the animation problem too.
Thanx for replay mate! But still no transition

Well, I went to the dev site and downloaded version 1.2.9. My problem was, when i unlocked the phone none of my widgets would be displayed. They were there, and i could click on them, but i could not see them.
Note: This was only when i was using a Live Wallpaper.
Version 2.0 didn't offer me any benefits, as i use a very simple lockscreen. The easiest fix was to downgrade.
Here is the link to the dev's site: http://widgetlocker.teslacoilsw.com/general/widgetlocker-1-2-9/
Same problem here...Samsung galaxy s with darky 9.2 widgetlocker 2
Yea same here, no unlock transition...
Fresh 2.0 install on stock 2.3.3 rom
Thanks mate i will try when i get home

Switching back to 1.2.9 does show the unlock animation, but old version doesn't allow custom lock positioning and wltheme...
I have this problem as well. Interestingly it came only after a factory reset. I also lost my gingerbread "TV" lock animation after the reset and I have the feeling they are related. I wonder if any of you are also experiencing this.
EDIT: Selecting "all animations" did fix this

[rom] miui 1.11.4

This is my first dev work in porting moto triumph miui 1.11.4 to our device, & i've succeed...
Here is the download link:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/2HieIHBj/miuiandroid_fb0-1114-110911-3.html
Differences between this & tj style miui 1.11.11 are:
1. No more in call volume issue
2. LED light for notification blinking (pls set to default green, otherwise it blinking red)
3. No more screen blinking during call (proximity problem fixed)
For other features, pls google miui 1.11.4 changelog.
My advise, after flashing pls ask yr friend to call u, then check yr in call volume level by pressing volume up button (bcoz in the process of booting & rebooting u press the volume level hardly), now make it maximum. I dont hv any in call volume issue until now....
Should i ask donation for this rom dev work? I dont know, just like to do this, but if u willing, my paypal ac is at [email protected]

Thanks, i am asking something else, nevermind now,
very slow download possible to upload to some faster site (megaupload etc.)
I think a way of porting done by cowsgo was tru cross-checking with tj style 1.11.11, so a lot of changes hv been done, for me i dont want to lose a sense of new rom, so i minimize the changes, just necessary things to make it work with our devise. To check back what changes hv been done by cowsgo to 1.11.25, its a lot of work & effort

Screen Blinking during calls still continues, Notification lights is good and so also Call Volume. Can see carrier name inside setting menu however Network search is still throwing up UNKNOWN.
Have you tried SD kernel with this ROM ?
Network stuff? yes i know, but i think i know the reason y its not appeared, actually it just read sim operator name, not network operator name, a few command line need to be included related to TelephonyManager to read the network operator name & phone number. Now i can see my phone number bcoz i added it manually during my CM7 era

I got the way which is through CMW recovery , want to update some experience with 1.11.4
Carrier Name is there (previously also don't have problem with it)
Incoming call problem is still there (need to toggle like what what I used to previously)
Flashing during call problem still continues like what is there in previous ROM.
Only difference I found is free RAM .... but not up to mark.... Although great work friend ....
I've flashed this rom a few times, just to trace any inconsistencies, if exist, with @ without wiping, but i never face any in call volume issue with this version

Call Volume problem is not that much serious, main issue is proximity sensor issue ..... do you have any solution for that..... do you use any third party application to overcome this issue ..... or planning to do so.....

I tried SDKernel, the performance and memory seems to have improved (btw where & how do I see free memory in MIUI ??? ON CM it was very simple)
The ROM is very stable, yet to see a FC (barring Torch, we can do away with this actually) or restart. Volume has been no issues at all. Noticed that WIFI tether is missing, installed external app from market but good to have in your next build.
I noticed that there is a delay in the start of ringtone during incoming call. Is it because of SetCPU since i have set it at 122 when screen off.

Dear Friend, even in MIUI it is very easy to check your free ROM, put your finger on home button, go to application manager, then go to running, you can check free ROM.
Also you can use this as task killer.
Although its very easy in CM7, CM has some of its own drawback over MIUI.
1. MUSIC
2. LAUNCHER
3. Bluetooth Filetransfer
these are very much better with Miui while CM7 is very average in these point, hence I prefer MIUI over CM7.
Maybe some one object me, but its my exp with CM7 and MIUI.

Thanks for this short cut. I have used CM7 and yes both have its +s and -s.
With SDKernel free memory is only 97Mb ???? Anybody with any better experience ? UC V5 was better....But I am getting amazing battery life on this !

It worked for me with zeus 6.2/6.11 V20o, Echelon Bramha and if i remember correctly it worked well with zeus 6.0 as well( By the way abt the menu button i mean the first touch button)
IMO, it's a bug, because with it, our OB can be unlocked by accident
afaik, Huexxx had fixed that bug since Zeus v6. you can check the changelog
v6:

question.... are you using a theme?
Find the additional tweaks/lines in build.prop to enable or disable the unlock via menu button. It will be at the bottom end at the very least as lines are added there.

No i am not.. i am just using the default zeam laucher which comes with zeus and default settings of that...Hope i answered ur question.
I dissabled the lock-screen using No-Lock from the app market. It made a HUUUUGE impact in usability! IL never use lockscreen again. Its just a gimmick for showing off to friends.

[Official] LANIGHT for Captivate Q&A

I decided to create a new thread solely for Q/A and for people who are exeriencing issues running LANIGHT. Many issues can be solved by flashing different kernel/patch/fix/modem or going back to stock.
Try flashing DarkyRom RE: http://www.darkyrom.com/index.php?th...aptivate.6062/ (Captivate guide)
Then flash JB on it with proper instructions.
When an application crashes I get the option to close it or report the crash. When I click to report the crash it then says that the Play Store crashed. Is there a fix for this?
Still have ringtone issue
I installed 6.5 dd and all went well, but I still have the disappearing ringtone issue. Tried the fix and didn't work. I came from 4.2 dd. Any comments on how to try to fix this? This ROM is great.

Did you try flashing semaphore or flashing the rom with a complete wipe? People reported flashing the different kernel sometimes fixes it... Not sure if it's kernel related which is highly unlikely.
I ran the rom with no issues. I remember it was an issues back in 4.2DD but it was gone when i applied the fix... Not everyone that flashed reported that issue maybe that's why i never got serious about it.
Lockscreen wallpaper image?
is there a way to set a different wallpaper image to the lockscreen?
I can't seem to find this option in the Lanigh 6.5 rom.

Same here, but I have to confess that I made a dirty flash wiping dalvik cache only. I'll try to make a full wipe to see what happens.

I followed instructions from the OP, full wipe 3 times...format individual system/data/datadata/cache/dalvik. Haven't tried semaphore, I like devil ever since team nyx's 4.0.3. With this ROM I have never had wifi issues, since v1. Besides the disappearing ringtones, gallery pictures also disappear just leaving online pics...no FC though. I use quikpic so no biggie.

No luck. Actually it it's worse, since before flashing I had access to standard ringtones, those that come with the ROM, but not those which I created by myself. After flashing, all ringtones disappeared. Tried with the ringtones patch, but also no luck.
Next step, it's to find semaphore and flash new kernel. Any clue where I can download it?
Another repeating issue that occurs to me is the FC in the messages app.
EDIT: I've foud Semaphore and flashed it with Odin. I couldn't check if it solved the ringtone issue, since after apply this kernel, I had two severe issues: my screen rotated 90° to the right and the external-sd was not recognized. I've cleared cache, dalvik, fixed permissions and no luck.
Going back to 4.2 by now.

Loving the ROM so far. Finally decided that I don't need most of the customization options offered by other JB roms. however, I do miss the battery percentage. Any way to enable that, maybe through a theme or app?
EDIT: sneaky ba$terds, hiding it in the display options.... Looks awesome now. Found a new fav daily driver!
I installed new devil kernes 1.7.4VC and did not loose sound as others are posting. I wiped cache / dalvik & reboot recovery.
P.S. version 1.7.5 fixes the sound accourding the kernel thread.

In a week ive took a Captivate i897 from stock froyo 2.2 to cwmR to Devil kernel 1.6.1 <- which I really like. I first installed CM10 and was satisfied but got to reading around and flashed LAnight 6.5 DD last night (the proper way explained on thread). only played with it for a few hours and loved its speed. But today ran into problem with changing lock screen background image to custom image.
** is there a permanent fix for this, i dont always have my pc with me.
--Also noticed in both CM10 and LAnight 6.5DD, I can only turn on Bluetooth, is there a way to configure it like settings menu in stock froyo .?.
*edit, figured it out, long press WiFi or Bluetooth opens sub menu for settings, DuH. Im a Android Newb.

You don't need to download Devil kernel manager if you don't want to. It's somewhere in the settings (different Lanight versions have it hidden in different places...).
Probably, under settings -> developer options
Or settings -> extras
Or settings -> tvout
Or there's a galaxy s app...
Maybe there are more places I hid it in different versions lol I had to move things and its as unorganized as my rom thread :/

Thank you very much in advance

Very weird problem when on lanlight (or any JB rom)
I installed V6.5DD using the exact method you wrote on the OP. I was coming from CM9, it booted up correctly and everything works great except three things: 1) i have no lock screen (it is checked) 2) I don't get any notifications, whatsoever(i can pull it down, but i hear an email or sms come in and nothing appears) 3) when i hold the home button the recent apps don't show.
I formatted everything again and re flashed, same exact problem.
What should i do? everything worked well on cm9
please help if you can.
I installed different JB roms and none worked.
I decided to go back to CM9, and guess what? none of those thing i outlined works.
It looks i have to odin back to stock. Can anyone please help me
sincerely,

A: Go to system settings-buttons-backlight & uncheck "Illuminate buttons".
If don't work for you, download BLN control from Google Play Store, here.
Q: I installed CM10.1/CM10.2/CM11 rom but I can't find radio fm app. Any solution?
A: Yes. Download Spirit FM Free from here.
Do that only if it doesn't work with the default settings:
1 - If you are in Europe: Settings->Band->World... (Anyone).
2 - Settings->Audio->Method->Galaxy S3/Note/S2_ICS.
Q: How to enable the pie controls & navigation buttons?
A: First you need a file explorer, then add this line qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to /system/build.prop & reboot the phone to activate the on screen buttons (Navigation Bar). Then go to Settings>System>Power menu>Expanded desktop & activate it & then you will see pie control in the Settings>System menu.
Q: I want to try other kernel, but I can't because of F2FS. What can I do?
A: Take a look here & here.
Q: How to keep Xposed Framework installed after update the rom?
A: Read this.
Q: Where can I find amazing themes for TWRP recovery?
A: Here, here & here.
Q: How can I help the development of any ROM?
A: Not with, "+1", "FC", "me too", "same bug here", blablabla. These comments are USELESS.
Q: So, how can I really help?
A: Simple. Remember doing this you're helping the developer & yourself, you're intelligent, so you understand what I'm saying, right!?!
Do that in the right ROM thread:
Phone model:
Baseband version:
ROM version:
Did you?
wipe:
restore with titanium backup:
reboot after having the issue:
Are you using?
a task killer:
the kernel (boot.img) in the zip or other:
Settings/Performance settings (other than default):
What steps will reproduce the problem?
But the most important thing is this: attach a LOGCAT of the problem.
Q: Ok nice, but I’m noob & I don’t know how to LOGCAT, where can I learn?
A: Here, here or stop being lazy & search in XDA forums.

First of all, thank you for reading. Regarding your question, it only works on cm roms.
Anytime! Imho, you've provided useful info which is worth to know if you're an owner of a custom I8190.
I've totally failed the topic at the 1st place here, but I've checked out this hidden menu after I've flashed Maclaw's CM 10.2 and it's really a must have option. Now I remember it again!
..but what I didn't knew was that in here, in dev options existed that function which I was always seeking for; the advanced reboot, which lets you decide what to boot. For example, the recovery.
This is a really nice thing to use on CM. It can save you a bit of time and your 3 button combo fingerprints
I would add this 'advanced reboot/boot to recovery' thingy to the FAQ. I find it interesting and useful :silly:
Thanks.
are maclaws roms compatible with gt-l8190L?

I think bln only works on 3rd party sms apps, not work with cm sms built-in app. BTW, keeping the lights on till the sms is reading only sucks your battery
Ohh. Ok2 thanks for your help man. Appreciated it.
