[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.

Something very wrong with phone. (Apps die even after clean new roms)

Hello I am quite worried about my phone.
After a little while with a new rom installed widgets will FC and stop working and some apps will disappear (and if on home screen you see default image and clicking it it says"Application not found") This usually (if not always) happens after the phone for some reason thinks it is the first time it has been switched on and goes through the initial setup (asking about language, setup accounts, wifi etc)
I first noticed this happen when I had darkys 9.3(i think maybe 9.somehting anyway) and when I replaced the sim all the above occoured. Reinstalling the apps didnt fix them and most apps FC.
Since then I have tried many roms and most seems to get this affect after some time. I was using some 2.3 roms and they were great but didnt have bln + very bad battery so they had to go. I'm currently on a romkitchen rom and it was fine for a while then after a restart it did the initial setup thing again and most things are broken again.
Anyone know anything about this?
Any suggestions on what I can try?
Thanks

Try killing the rom that caused the problems the usual supect once again .
Flash to stock Eclair via Odin with pit 512 and repartition checked .
If thats ok upgrade to Froyo .

Ehh, that sounds a lot like the Internal SD issue. Try a stock 2.2.1 rom with a recent modem and see how that goes.

Can you suggest any roms/modems? I'm from UK if that makes a difference.
Btw the most recent rom was all the newest stuff from the rom kitchen. I feel like there is something that is not being wiped from my phone on a reflash even though I have installed different roms/modems/kernels. I have even deleted everything from my internal sd (the bit you can see when plugging phone into pc) The only thing I haven't wiped is my external sd, could something on that be the culprit?
Oh also as I installed this latest rom no gallery app was installed? I thought I might have just chosen the wrong option in the rom kitchen but does that mean anything?
EDIT - Could it be this RFS corruption issue?

Should I follow these steps or is there a newer method?

No Call, No Dataconnection...

Hi,
i´ve got a (big?) problem...i dont know why..but i cant make and get calls!
even the dataconnection doesnt work...
i have now the wgspolestras rc1 rom...i had tried the cm7...and the..i forgot..
i`ve made a clockworkmod restore...
nothing worked...
so i`ve flashed the baseband from 06.06 and updated the ril from the 06.06
no chance..no call...
what can i do?? i am a bit pissed off, no nice friday evening... -.-
i am new to the baseband & ril..so sorry if there is the answer somewhere...
hopefully someone can help me..
thanks

If nothing works, I suggest you do an NVflash. it's basically a clean flash of the stock ROM, which will clean everything (make sure you packup your apps on external sd card)
link of how to do it and the files you need - http://android.modaco.com/content/l...rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15-03-2011/

thanks..i will look at this...i hope it will work!
EDIT:
The device is flashing....
after that, there is a stock rom on the device, right?
i have to root it again, and to install romanager with clockworkmod and install a rom?
EDIT2:
NO SUCCESS!!
the lg stock rom has started, i got an sms, then i tried to call....nothing!!
When i call my phone ->its busy...
sending/receiving sms seems to work..

you have to root your phone again, and install rom manager/clockworkmod.
try calling someone else, or try receiving a call. This is the gold standard, if this doesn't work, then there's not much else you can do.

i got a bit shocked!!
but i`ve flashed the newest vodaphone stock rom....
and it worked! (okay the internetsettings are different from my provider)
but that worked too
i am going to root and flash it now...it should work..
EDIT:
Its working...somehow!! Dataconnection is very bad...
i`ve flashed the RC1 from WGSpolestra...i can call in and out, but with data connection the signal is very bad...can i flash new ril and baseband?

just try out other baseband and ril, not every version is working for everybody ...

i`ve flashed the 606 baseband and ril.
but i dont understand why that happens...from now to then these problems..
anyway..the phone is working again..

Same problem..
Hey there,
Ive got the same problem.
I was using the CM Nightly Rom, but just one dat, I got an "X" instead of having any signal.
Dont have a clue why or what happend.
I tried other roms, but All the same problem.
At the end, I tried the NVFLASh, that works, But only with the 2.2 Roms.
Today i put the latest nightly on my Lg, and My signal was gone after half a day.
Weird, Weird...

WyCkson.

i think that i found the problem....
wich launcher are u using?
i had used the pro plus launcher, but after a reboot all my widgets are gone (loading problem) so i switched to the adw launcher and no problem any more!!!
the phone works well now!!
How stupid is that....such probem because of the launcher!!!?

hello,
Is it possible it's sim card problem ?
Try with another to see.
bye

i`ve used my card in a other phone..no problem..

No Calls suddenly Don't know what to do!!!!
Suddenly NO Incoming Calls. Knew it the next day when my friend personally came to see.
Also got scolded from company.
Dont' know what is the problem. But 3 to 4 restart helps.
I feel I may be an IDIOT for buying this phone.

[Q] [CM10] 2G/3G toggle switch not working

Hi guys, I have a problem with the 2G/3G toggle in the notification bar. It doesn't seem to work properly. When I want to switch to 2G, it immediately switches back to 3G.
A reboot does not help.
Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution?
I just want to have a quick way to switch between 2G and 3G. It worked fine in CM9.
i9000
CM10 stable
Stock kernel
Toggle settings is set to 2G/2G+3G

Am I really the only one having this problem?
I find that hard to believe, having only stock kernel and not having changed anything in the developer settings.
Can no one reproduce the bug?

You're not alone.
I also don't work. I tried lots of modem (jvt, jvu, jw4) same results. :crying:
And cm9 works fine !

I can confirm that. But I find it quite weird that a reboot doesn't help. Oo For me it works a couple of times and after that it stops working and I have to reboot.
Sent from my Gameboy Color

you are not alone
Same Problem here...my phone (SGS I9000) doesn't seem to work on 2G anymore since yesterday update. If I switch to 3G it works. there seems to be some problem on 2G networking??

Welp, I tried using Semaphore 2.5.0. Didn't work, the problem's still there and unchanged.
Any ideas?

Same problem here. Sometimes reboot helps, sometimes not. I tried with stock and Sema 2.6 kernel and with stock and jw1 modem. Neither of them are working correctly. I'm using a nightly.

+1 on stable cm10

with latest HellyBean the same problem. sometimes the toggle work, sometimes not.
edit: after wipe cache again, it works. a bit slow... but it works!

[Q] Sudden Camera death

Hi
I read though thousends of posts by now but I couldn't find a solution for my pronlem
My camera isn't working any more
I was using the 4.8 version of Sentinel rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252953). There everything was fine. Than I flashed the update to 5.0 version of this rom and since than my camera is dead. I just get a black screen when I start it.*I tryed a lot to get it back working but nothing has been working so far.*I tryed the reflash sentinel, I flash other cams I flash other roms. On one of the other roms the phone said: "Can't connect to camera" or something like that. So I restored sentinel because nothing worked.
I always cleaned the memory of the phone (wipe cache and so on) befor each try.
Now I have no idea what to do.
Hope someone got a solution for me
