Hi all, I have two unrelated questions about my S10+ and joined them to reduce threads.
1. I shot with my default Camera on portrait orientation and it will be on Portrait too when viewing them in Gallery. However, sometimes when I am sending them on Whatsapp, it will be on Landscape by default, so if I don't rotate them in Whatsapp, it will be sent sideways. Anyone experience this before?
2. I am very annoyed by this since this is breaking my screen and battery is that whenever I receive push text message from my provider (not simple text message but the push type one, where it will be on top by default if you have screen on, check attached), it will automatically turns my screen on from sleep to show the message and this will not turn off until I dismiss the text. This is especially frustrating whenever I receive this when I am sleeping, and this will keep my phone on, eating my battery and keeping the screen on with the same screen which is disastrous for the AMOLED. I have screen to turn off after 1 min but it does not work for this. Anyone have the fix for this?

I am wondering if anyone else has seen this. When I am in email and slide the device to go to landscape mode it changes fine. If I stay in email and go back to portrait, I lose half the screen as it stays in landscape. I fix it by closing email so it is not a huge deal but can be a PITA at times. Anyone? Suggestions?
So this is what I did:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9202470&postcount=8
and now I'm trying to figure out how to get my phone back to the way it was.
Few simple things:
i don't want the little gmail widget to tell me that i have new mail. I turned off autosync and unsynced my gmail account, but that didn't work
likewise i don't want the default messaging programs widget to pop up along with handcent, i just want handcent.
hmmm, i tried to set the wallpaper i used to have and it won't work. maybe cause i set astro as the default program to open to view the gallery? how can i unset that?
thanks!
Also, the phone screen used to dim after 25 seconds and turn off after 30 seconds. now the screen dims and brightens randomly, like as i'm typing a text message or something.
Figured out everything except the dimming/undimming
any ideas folks?
Have you checked in settings sound and display to see if power savings mode is checked? I know thay would cause what your talking about.

Thanks, but i have played with that on and off and it makes no difference
Is it related to the light sensor. Have you got his set to auto.
This feature dims and brightens the screen based on the amount of light the sensor see's which I think is the camera.

Yes! That was it, thanks guy!
Any theories on how to stop it from vibrating when I plug it in?
Hiya folks. Running CM10.1 stable on my targa (aka Droid Bionic). It was beautiful except for lack of nav dock support, a problematic Google Now (different problem, with workaround), and this particular problem, which I hope someone know what I am talking about...
When a call comes in and I answer by the slider, the screen goes black, whether or not I held the phone up to my head.
I cannot turn the screen back on. None of the buttons seem to do anything, though backlight for the 4 hard buttons does turn on indicating that some command was received by the touchscreen. Not even the power button will bring the screen back during the call.
If the other party hangs up, the phone goes back to normal.
With screen off, I can't hang up.
I can hang up if my Bluetooth headset was connected and I hang up with that.
I've searched all over and this issue seem to be a pretty popular issue last December across all CM 10 builds. However, I don't know if this was ever resolved for this build.
I can't find an option in the ROM to just flat "turn off face proximity detection" either. Or in any way to "tweak" it.
CPU-Z says my proximity sensor is working, so I guess it's just not calibrated properly for the dialer?
Can we get a "special hidden tweaker" much like the light sensor tweak for the auto-brightness levels?
Figured it out. It wasn't CM. It was Screebl and the stupid orientation sensor, and how the Launcher is fixed to portrait mode.
I think I had my phone laid down and it's at a diagonal so it's in landscape mode, and the phone's fine with that when it's just showing contacts. Screebl kicks in and determines that landscape, phone orientation says stay on, so screen stayed on. It was set to turn off the screen IMMEDIATELY when the orientation goes out of "viewing range". (Saving batteries, ya know).
When the call was answered, Screebl should have turned itself off (i.e. ignore input while call is in progress). But it didn't. The "answer the phone" screen flipped the display back to portrait mode. The phone, still laid flat, in "landscape", is now "out of viewing range", and Screebl turned off the screen.
Strange interaction among the various apps, yes.
I'm still trying to figure out how to make my Bionic, with extended battery last the whole day. Juicedefender Ultimate somehow just keeps turning the screen back on every X seconds (taking root control for SOMETHING) and Wakelock detector says the phone is not going into enough deep sleep (kinda like me, hahaha)
a few things i've noticed with Stamina Mode enabled, wondered if anyone else has:
1. on occasion, after tap2wake, the theme/wallpaper will not load. the background on the lock screen and home screen is black. the only remedy i've found for this is to wait: if you turn off the screen and wake it immediately, it will stay black. if i wait 20-30 seconds, it's back to normal. only happened with SM on.
2. even with Gmail whitelisted, and notifications for Gmail ON -- i still won't get notifications. mail will be waiting for me in the app, but nothing to tell me that it's arrived.
3. Hangouts. same thing: whitelisted, no notifications. i'll open the app to find a bunch of messages that i missed.
am i missing something in my set-up?
following up, in case anyone has similar issues.
after a reboot, issues 2 and 3 have been resolved -- notifications for my white listed apps started to work right away. and issue 1 hasn't occurred again (yet).
Stamina Mode has been impressive so far. it's been two nights in a row where i haven't had to charge it. have 30% juice left, will probably plug it in during my workday.

For you have not indicated the FW version you're running on now, would suggest two things over here:
1.) Update to the latest FW (e.g. x.77) since that may solve the issue. Get it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/firmware-23-0-1-5-77-rolling-xperia-z3-t2969791
2.) Use the search function and join one of the many threads that already exist on that topic.
Hi everybody, I've been having a hideous issue with my Note 8 ever since it updated to Android Oreo. So, before when I turned my phone on, either by pressing the home button on the screen or by using the button on the side, I could see the notifications and I could view the whole preview by sliding them down, touch them and open them, erase them or leave them where they where. Now as soon as I use either one of this buttons, the phone automatically selects one of those notifications and pops up the screen with the sign password and iris recognize without giving me the chance of seeing the notifications. If I go back without using the password, the notification it wanted to open gets deleted. It basically takes away the possibility to check the notifications. The problem gets worse when I'm at home because I have the smartlock enabled, so (when and if it works) it opens up any notifications by itself. Sometimes, it's actually rare but it happened a few times already, it does everything on its own. It's on my bed far from me, I'm not even looking at it, a notification arrives, it turns on by itself and asks for my password to open the notification. What do you think? I hope someone has an answer and I hope i didn't create a new thread on an issue already discussed about, but I couldn't find anything similar
