[Q] Darky's Rom auto rotation problem

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

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.

[Q] JVP 2.3.4 Force Close

Stock JVP 2.3.4 on Galaxy S
Getting FC on com.android.phone after a phone call 2-3 times a day (~ every 10 calls)
Getting FC on messaging and receiving SMS (rare)
Still happens after a full wipe
Anybody else experiences the problem?
Any more FC on JVP?
Thanks!

No fc here have you installed any thing

I'm having the same issue too for com.android.phone. EXACTLY the same as u. I lose signal for a few secs then it's ok again.

Look in the "Stock 2.3.4" thread, there is a cmw.zip with a fixed Phone.apk, just flash it via CWM...

Should be this Page 54 in the thread
Next time you may should effort more time and search for it by yourself instead of letting others do that

with witch kernel are you??

your kernel??

I also get this on JVH (and JVB before that) - always phone dialler searching for contacts by entering digits. Also using Go SMS or stock SMS client it sometimes happens.
CF Root.
I have even flashed 2.2.1 and upgraded to 2.3.3. though Kies. Still the same. It's driving me nuts.

Same fc issue. I had to revert back to 2.3.3 again. Very annoying. Another thing everybody i am talking told me to speak more loudly because they can not hear me and that my voice is not clear.

I had the exact same problem with JVH (but not with any other firmware, including JVP). I tried to re-flash JVH (with re-partition), but it persisted.
I then went for an even older FW (an Eclair ROM), then re-flashed JHV (with bootloaders) and it worked just fine.
I still don't know what caused the problem, but that's how I solved it... Hope this helps!

i did the same thing yesterday night and now testing the jvp..

lokk here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14688449&highlight=Phone.apk#post14688449

Why you guys even did not read the first page instead of posting rubbish?
Shame on you!

I was on a call and it FC'd and network signal was lost as well.
I dont know if FC was due to lost signal or lost signal because it FC'd, either way its a major bug in JVP.

Sorry man but are you stupid?

I had that too but only 1 time, after i hang up phone suddenly lost network and after cuple of seconds it was back. No FC no errors. Maybe it is becouse of dirty sim card, i had samsung i5700 before and had to clean sim card, after cleaning it never happend again.

[Q] Gingerbread 2.3.4 solving "sleep of death"?

I am considering upgrading to 2.3.4 on my galaxy mini to solve the "sleep of death" problem... is anyone out there who has upgraded to 2.3.4 still having the "sleep of death" problem?

Whats sleep of death problem ?

It's when the phone is still "on" but will not wake up. The only way to get it working is to take out the battery. Many are reporting this happening every day or two.

Happens on i9000 for me, I just keep powerbutton pressed until it reboots. No need to remove battery.
I think i need to do a factory reset on phone + sd card someday, maybe it resolves it.

this happened to me too. just reset phone and when it starts, try to use the phone or just simply tap the phone every time it tries to sleep (anything works as long it doesn't sleep)... just keep on doing this for about 30min? or more
(make yourself busy while doing this cuz its gonna be boring just tapping)

I think it's related to hardware problem (not confirmed yet anyway)... Don't believe that "upgrade" could be the solution..
I actually hope so!
GT-S5570 on Train

I just upgraded today using kies.... now when I try to start up it never gets past the step where it shows the "Samsung Galaxy Mini" text. Creating another thread for this problem.

With CheckFUSDownloader (thanks to Luffarjoh - search 3D) you can download the archive used to update your fw and, so, reflash it with Odin (even more times if needed)...

Nope, it's not hardware related. Never had a SOD since I used tjstyle's CM7.
Early Gingerbread firmware from Samsung has SOD too, but I think the latest versions doesn't.
Official firmware is now on 2.3.5, FYI.

If I can't get passed the logo screen what is the best way to get my firmware information? The guides say I need this info to choose the right rom.
Thanks!

This is a Froyo problem, didn't happen in Gingerbread :3

Yeah, had the same problem when on Froyo, after flashing GB2.3.4 the problem hasn't occured.

WIFI ERROR \ Turnning on \ Wifi Goes To Grey

Hello Everybody ... Am a new member to Xda site but i learned alot through reading your posts long time ago...
anyway here is my problem MY GALAXY NOTE GTN7000 Wifi Is not Working....
Details: I Had The phone since febraury 2012 and it was GB 2.3.6
i Updated to I.C.S 4.0.3 Official Rom and rooted it in july 2012
suddenly in august 2012 the problem started to appear ((( Am Writing Dates so To Avoid the Possibility of Hard Brick or anything because the phone was working great till then )))
THE PROBLEM
1-When I Try To Open Wifi It just Lag and stop responding The ICON GOES TO GREY INSTEAD OF GREEN and stays like that till Reboot and some times stays grey after Reboot
2- when opening wifi from settings tab it says "Turning On Wifi " and stays like that Forever
3- the only Way To restore the wifi icon to white is trying to activate WIFI - Direct
4- Rebooting Used to fix the problem but now NOT
5- Removing the battery Used to fix the problem But NOW NOT
Fixes I Tried
1- Restore Factory Setting & Wipe Cache & Wipe Everything
2- Changing the Rom from (I.C.S 4.0.3 )to (GB 2.3.6 ) to (Paranoid Android ) to (I.C.S 4.0.4)
Sometimes after each format or rom flash wifi worked for 2 hours or even 24 hours normally then problem appear
3- Tried removing Wpa Supplicant ( Helped Sometimes Then NOT )
4- Tried Wifix TO change country code even manually did it
5- Adjusted the Nfram_Semacove i dnt remember the name actually from CC To All ( Worked then later Stopped )
6- Used Wifi Rescue (Worked for a while then Stopped )

What i really Think is : Its a BUG Changed some files of the system which are not restored by flashing new ROM !!! for example when i Flashed Roms and Kernels i Found WPA Supplicant unchanged with my router Config !!!!
I SENT THE PHONE TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID WILL CHECK AND REPLY within24 hrs but for sure its hardware and change Board which means 2800 EGP which is the price of new SGs2 soo am sure its a Bug or Software CAN ANY1 Help MEEEEEE

I am also facing the same problem for last one month and tried almost all the options tried by you but no relief. Wifi just works some time and other times it stays greyed. Can any one suggest any other solution as i also think it's software problem.

jesus christ, we are not BLIND!
anyway, i have same issues on sgs2

Same issue
@MOHPHR : I am facing the same issue as you.
I tried several ROMs from Original stock ICS to Paranoid to Crisleko's ROM.
Going into the airplane mode and then turning wifi on used to work, not anymore.
3G Data works just fine, not being able to use wifi is frustrating because when I leave it alone, it connects by itself randomly when I am at home for example.
I have done some extensive research and found an article that mentions wifi hardware problems resulting from ICS update on a galaxy S2. (Google: Samsung Galaxy S2 WiFi Issue BY Shaiful Borhan )
I did use the *#*#526#*#* and got the status: "NotSet Driver loaded [NG]".
Anyone can help please ?

Hi, I have been looking for days now for a forum that will be discussing this exact problem. I ve had this issue fora month or so now. I have restored to factory settings but it has not solved the problem. My galaxy note n7000 is not rooted nor does it have any special rom. I wouldnt even know how to install them. Where you able to find a fix? I am so tired of this problem, Im even contemplating the possibility of getting a note 2 and selling my n7000. I believe as well that it is most likely a software problem and im wondering if the soon to come jellly bean update could fix this issue.
Ps: after the wifi problem started, ive also noticed freezes and restars/ reboots.
Thanks for your help guys.:good:

@fedetipito I am still considering the hardware issue, although it seems a compatibility issue with the region/country as @fearkillerr mentioned in this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436683)
I tried his solutions, none worked. The script one worked, but only once, then the problem kept repeating.
I upgraded to JB 4.2 then downgraded to stock GB 2.3 still the same issue. I am from the North Africa/Middle-East region, although when I was in Sweden in holidays and using a Swedish sim-card didn't have this issue. Any thoughts ? This problem is really really upsetting as we cannot use the WiFi properly. I am seriously considering simply abandoning my Galaxy Note N7000 and go for an iPhone 5, simply because I cannot even sell it (since no one would like a smartphone that doesn't have a proper wifi working).

I am having almost same problem with WiFi after I installed Custom ROM.
I tried only one method and it worked like a charm.
Go to WiFi connections and tell your phone to forget the network you are connected to, then re log. This problem did not happen after that 3 days now. Good Luck.

@Valium10 we initially cannot connect to any WiFi network, so we can't "forget" them. I don't think it is a "wifi network" problem.

" although when I was in Sweden in holidays and using a Swedish sim-card didn't have this issue"
And if you take SIM card out and power-on phone?Will wifi work?

Sometimes no, sometimes yes. It's kind of a malicious bug.

I am also facing the same problem and it seems it is hardware problem. May some dust or something else on the hardware or else we have dropped our phone some problem is there. When I gave to service center they asked that the motherboard needs to be replaced. But they refused to check it without that. I told that first try without replacing any parts and just check whats wrong in this if some repair can be done, but the service center people are so busy 50-60 peoples were waiting in line behind me to give there phones for service. They do not listen anything. They have tried by installing latest ROM and nothing else, that we can easily do it and for that also they have taken service charges.
Please someone tell me where exactly the wifi module is there, so we can open and check the problem ourself.

s3 lte touch screen problem

my galaxy s3 lte sometimes the screen freezes and it is unresponsive to touch. As soon as I turn the screen off and back on with the lock button then it works fine. It does it randomly, for instance when somebody calls I can't answer it sometimes I have to hurry up and turn the screen off and back on so I can swipe to answer. Also when I'm playing games is the same. Everything solves when turn off and then on screen
Thanks for tips

I had same kind of problems when i was using "bad combination" of kernel and rom. Got it fixed by flashing stock kernel But if you're running stock rom, then i don't know how to help you :s
