Hello, and please, if there is another thread about this problem that i didn't fine, excuse me!
my question is simple:
is there any ROM (2.3.x - gingerbread) in that the led of soft keys is working well and it does not shut down after a few seconds? if yes...please tell me wich one.
as i can remember, in Froyo the light from the 4 soft keys stayed on all time the screen was unlocked ... correct?
i would really like that someone give me a sulution. i have seen a MIUI video in wich, unfortunately the lights are killed as well after a few secs....
thanks in advance.

I prefer not to, if you want better battery life.
You can ask the developers in this thread about the leds.

Thats Bogus. These LEDs (more like SMDs) need close to nothing. Maybe your Phone will last 1 minute longer with the lights out.
@dookoo
its a Bug. LG already acknowlegded it in the german support forum. They are working on a fix to get them working again (like under 2.2). Knowing LG that can take quite some time.

But the latest LG phones does the same. Perhaps it's not a bug. Anyway, what's bogus??

@ Zakyz
Then all the other Phones are defect . I contacted the LG support myself and they said it is a Bug to be solved.

Here's some information about 1.29.709.12 upgrade (Taiwan version), and some responses I read from other forum.
And... sorry guys, I really don't know when will your updates come. and i don't have the phone yet . I envy you!
.
1.29.709.12(214.04MB)
1. virtual key sensitivity adjusted
Lots confirmed the home/back key issue fixed, looks solid.
2. slow motion video quality recording improved under low lit
Didn't see anyone post about it
3. better Beats Audio experience
Some said the left / right sound are better balanced.
4. reduce background noise when using headphone
a few guys said noise is "significantly" reduced.
5. better bluetooth device matching
a few guys confirmed bluetooth device matched faster.
firmware from this OTA is availablehere: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823
That's the russian firmware for that link there will probably be a lot more posted there in the coming days.
It's rolling out to Germany and France as we speak.
I want the fix for the home/back buttons (allegedly in this OTA) *bad*. I'm Sprint/US.

If you are on 1.29 that fix might be in there already if you mean the sensitivity issue with the buttons and having to press them multiple times to get them to work.

Yes, that is exactly the problem I'm referring to. I'm on US/Sprint 1.29.651.7, and the problem definitely still exists for me and many other users of this firmware version, so I really hope the button fix from Taiwan version 1.29.709.12 does not already exist in US version 1.29.651.7, because if so...IT DOESN'T WORK.
anyway of getting this update any sooner?
Im in the uk with a 'sim free' handset so would have thought the update would come first as its not a carrier locked handset

nokia told me, that i should get a 3. party app for that, but the thing is, there is no led programs that works, seems that the led lamp is gone totally, and the glance , hmm what to say, its so darn small , in my point of view, useless
the most annoying thing is,
the bluetooth part, when seaching for other devices, it only shows mac addresses. not names og nearby devices
If the phone gets unlocked and the kernel source code released, it should be relatively easy to make the capacitive buttons work as notification leds.

I emailed HMD asking if the Nokia 8 would have different models like the Nokia 6, and if one of them included a notification LED. This was the response I received.

That's so sad maybe write to them suggesting to implement a workaround via the capacitive buttons. This is such small feature yet so powerful for someone like me, this is the only real glace screen I need! lol
I have tweeted them if you guys want to join in and try and get some support to make them think about it at least

What Is HMD thingking!?! Users bomb the HMD whit messages about this! There is LED in front panel and FM radio needs also root access.

True but we need to try especially since they are releasing them in China and India.. lot of potential future / current customers to get onboard requesting the same. Huge market out there.
A possible workaround
You can use the flash LED on the back as a notification LED:

Excellent is about right. It's so much better than Oreo LOS for GS5, which had a lot of bluetooth issues. Performance is amazing for an old 32bit CPU.
edit: I also have LOS16 running on Nexus 7 2013 and it surprised how well it runs for such an old device.
What about the battery life compared to LOS 15.1?
Display "stays black" issue on SM-900F
Hi.
Upgraded my wife's S5 to LOS 16 (from LOS 15.1?) lately and she's still happily using it (thx to all supporters).
I recently got another used SM-900F and though it's battery is a bit drawn out it seemed to have working smoothly while still on Samsung stock ROM.
However since I flashed it to LOS 16 it has some strange behaviour with it's backlight / display.
After some time of inactivity the display goes off, but I can't the display lit again. When pressing the home or power button the LEDs of the "soft" buttons flash, but the display stays black.
But the device is working as I can press the power button and bring "up" the power menu, but as I can't see anything I have to press the "shutdown" option blindly, and yes, the device powers off then.
If I the take off the battery for a while everything seems to be ok again.
But if the device is in that "black" mode even powering it up in "download mode" the display stays dark. So I assume this can't be an issue of LOS!?

It isn't. To be sure I reflashed the latest German Vodafone Samsung Stock 6.0.1 ROM back to the S5. Though everything worked smoothly in the beginning the display started *****ing after a while again. (it's sometimes lightly flashing green for a glimpse of a second)
As I got the impression it maybe related to a thermal problem I left it on a heating's radiator for a while, and yes, display got lit every time I tried. Let it get "cold" again and it starts *****ing ...

this is a common failure of (this generation of) samsung's OLEDs
if you use low brightness or are in cold weather a lot, the display will start flickering until brightness is raised
the screen will also fail to turn on sometimes, just turn it off then on again, repeat as needed, sometimes you need to warm up the phone
(edit: i've seen the galaxy logo show up then fade to black on a fresh boot, i've also seen someone on stock have the problem, so it's definitely not software)
recently i read about mouse button failing to click or clicking multiple times, one remedy was cleaning off possible corrosion with isopropyl, so i wonder if this OLED issue is similar (it might be if cold temperature increases the problem, electricity doesnt flow as well, etc)
Hi,
excuse me
sometimes I play midi USB keyboards.
Anyone has tested USB OTG?
Does work well ?
Thks
Who else are facing the same problem ?
1)Initially, when I unlock phone by pressing power button the display was changed to dim colour(mostly yellowish) and with horizontal lines displayed when the brightness is below 50%. After tried with multiple times pressing on power button the display came back to normal.
2) Next stage, it's not solved with power button. I have to keep my phone aside for some time to get back to normal display. It's been 15 to 20 min then.
3) Now, I would get normal display only in morning. Else, I need to keep my phone idle without touching for at least 4 to 5 hours. I've also changed screen power off time from 30 Sec to 10 Minutes. So that my screen wont turn off and I can keep the normal display. If I forgot to use or kept aside more than 10 min then my screen would go off and display would gone again and irritation starts with that discoloration problem..
4) If display changes to yellowish to reduce the horizontal lines problem I need to increase the brightness to 80 or 85% but this causing my phone with another problem "heating issue"
Samsung haven't responded on this issue yet, how could we bring up the issue and get the proper resolution from Samsung.
This happened after last March update installation?
What note 9 do you have?
Probably not a hardware fault if it happened after recent software update.
A number of note9 affected although samsung seems to disagree at the moment.
Hello,
I also have a problem with the display after waking up with the POWER button. There are tinted colors distorted and some stripes like dim lines and slow refreshing. Everything started after updating to Android 10. In fact, when the display lights up incorrectly, it starts to heat up from the bottom. Putting the smartphone aside for a moment or cooling down causes the display to work correctly.
Workaround? I turned on Active Display and first knock to activate it, then the display lights up correctly and then I unlock the screen and use normally. It is known that battery consumption increases. Of course mine is Exynos.
hi guys,, i remember a similar experience sometime back.. try this. if u have turn on the proximity sensor i mean the advance feature where the phone screen doesn't turn on while in pocket , switch it off and restart the phone and see if the problem still exist.

whats the firmware version u are having now and phone model?
Try wiping the cache partition in Recovery Mode. If that doesn't work then back up your device and manually reinstall the OS back onto your device.
Im having the exact problem. I flash LineageOS and it worked by max brightness then back to auto. I installed brightness widget to max brightness and back to auto everytime I turn on screen.
This issue is popular after March update. I tried everythings you mentioned above, reset, flash new firmware, even April update, wipe cached, flash cooked rom, heat screen, turn off features, disable gpu overlay, etc... Samsung Vietnam guaranteed can fix with new screen but I'm out of warranty.
I dont have any issues us unlocked snapdragon xaa model on latest android 10 version.
Can we confirmed that a screen replacement fixes the display problem or is it still a software issue

No one knows what is the exact cause here, its noticed in many devices right after this March update but few are noticed months before. But, now the problem came to many users at same time. So its been brought up by many tech blogs, websites.

I'm having the exynos version too but with ITV (Italy) firmware ...never had this problem and now I'm on April's version after March's version.
This looks a little bit like what happened to the S5 years ago when after 1 and a half/ 2 and a half year's the screan began flickering, having green spots or lines, randomly didn't go on with low luminance settings since it completely died....a lot of people said on forum's that it was the screen and a replacement solves, but when it happened to me years ago the Samsung assistance center told me that it was another component (never told me what it was) causing the issue and once they changed it , they solved the problem.
So, after my experience with the S5, don't know what to think now for what is happening to some guys even if I think that this issue might depend with something happening after marchs update because for the too many people having it after the update, coincidences are not credible.

Yes, many people were facing this problem and how many times we have contacted the Samsung they are behaving like they just hearing the issue for the first time. Just created and posted the link in Members app and 67 members joined so far. Everyone having the display problem out of nowhere. All of them on out of warranty except one or two. Still members app floating with the display problem messages.
Display issue got noticed in S20 too but they immediately released the security patch and solved it. Don't know why they were silent on Note 9.
