i rooted the wifi xoom to tiamat 1.3.0 all seems well but sometimes when I put the device to sleep (hitting the power button to turn off the screen) and want to resume it, it won't. I need to do a reset with vol+power to get it back up. Is this a known issue or did I mess up something?
Thanks
same thing happens with me and I've tried all kernels. Only thing that works for me is playing music in the background either Pandora or the player. Try it out let me know if it works for u.
If I don't play the jams she won't wake up
Intersting, ill have to try that. Its behaving now...

Updated to Ranju's. Straight afterwards I've installed a few apps - opera, newsgater pro, flash and vijay555 (torch app).
Now I'm finding I can't stream 3gp from sites such as youtube. Also for some strange reason my device keeps setting the screen brightness level to 0. Happened a few times in very intense sunlight so I didn't care. Happened a few times at work which is annoying, but I won't be able to use my phone if it happens in the dark.
Only pattern I've noticed is that the phone seems to be doing it sometimes when turning it off powersave mode by holding the power or backlight button.
I think I've realised why 3gp downloads won't play - somehow my security certificates on my phone seem to be screwed - possibly as a result of getting down to around 200k of free memory. Time for a reflash it looks like.
Anyone got any ideas about the backlighting?
any way to get the certification back with out re-flash?

Hi
I had same problem when I changed the wktask settings.
I think that is the problem...
I think the title says it all. I would like shoot a long video in a fixed position, keeping the screen on is a real battery killer.
Cheers John
have you tried using a screen-off app tied to a hard button?
Yep, tried BlackMe 1.3 but that kills the camera from working. The camera doesn't seem to like working in the background. Tried just turning the screen off with the power button, hoping it would be like Mp3 players that keeps playing music.
Associate blackme to the center Dpad button, if you havent already.
Reason I suggest that, is so you can keep the camera/videorecorder in the foreground, and just hit that button to shut the screen off.
Obviously sometimes programs dont like working when the screen is off so idk if that will work.. but worth a try if you havent already (hard to tell from your response).;
If it does not, you would need a seperate video recording program that lets it record with the screen off. Dont know if those are available.
(also, hitting the power button is much different from blanking the screen .. so im not surprised the power button didnt work.)

Has anyone figured out a solution, yet? I've been wondering this since I got the phone...
Me want this too! Been searching for quite sometime but no luck. Come in handy if we want to take pic or vid discreetly, ehm..
I have a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant on Tmobile. Does anyone know how to turn off the screen when playing music in the background? When I hit the side button to turn off the screen, it turns off for a moment and turns back on again.
have you tried going to your home screen after you start the music app? Once on your home screen the app would be minimize and then your screen should time out automatically...
I am having the same problem on my Motorola Atrix. I have tried the default music player, winamp, vplayer and they all stop playing music when I try to put the phone in standby mode. Any solution or advice?
I find it hard to believe that this issue has not been resolved. I find it a very necessary setting to have for android to save battery power. Searched the internet with no solution yet. Please help. Thanks
I'm running Prime 1.7 I never had any problems with my tablet. It has the creaking and light bleed. I was watching netflix the other day and watched all the way till the battery went completely dead 0%. I got home plugged it in and it charged up all the way but now the screen wont turn on. If i connect it to the mini hdmi i can see everything on the tv but screen still wont turn on.
I've tried:
Fixing Permissions
Clearing Cache
Undoing overclock
Removing SD
Turning it all the way off waiting then turning it back on.
Adjusted the Brightness
Changed Wifi.
I cant factory reset or anything in CWM because it doesn't show up on the tv through hdmi and i cant remember the each button pushes to do it blind.
Any Ideas?
Mine went blank once but that was the adw launcher. Rotating it fixed it and i was able to choose stock launcher. If nothing works you can try screencast to see the recovery on PC if you have Android sdk setup.
Did you try to hold down the Powerbutton till it switches off to make a correct Restart?
When the Tab is running hold the Powerbutton till it's off and wait till it starts again.
Normaly that helps with SOD.

You should press the power button 10 to 15 seconds...
So far nothing worked. I'm on stock launcher also.
I've tried to resetting it over and over still nothing.
I attempted to letting the battery die completely again.
Placed it on the dock and nothing.
Thank you for the suggestions. I will update if i ever solve the issue. I'm going to try screencast, but i never used it before.
I got screencast to open up and running. however it wont work in recovery. ADB recognizes it. I keep getting a blank screen. Any ideas?
I'm thinking the best option would be to nvflash it to stock and RMA it if it doesn't work.
NV Flash
Hi
if nothing else seems to work then NV Flash might be the best idea.
Could you share the BXX(First 3 digits of serial number)?
Thanks
I've got an HD2 running Android. I installed iheartradio and it works fine most of the time. But, intermittently, most often after I make a phone call and hang up before it's answered (purely anecdotal but that SEEMS to be what happens), the radio won't work any more. I can press the play button, it tries, but no sound. Eventually, I get a popup that it "can't connect to server"...
I've toggled the wireless off and on, and looked at other settings, but I don't see any indication of why it'd suddenly stop working.
I'm not sure it's the same problem but sometimes when this happens, pressing the play button is ignored. Pressing repeatedly has no effect.
So far, the only way I've been able to get things working again is to power off the phone and reboot...
Ideas of what I should check/change?
Well, I see this problem just sat here like a turd in a punch bowl...
I presume this means it's just another app that mostly works most of the time on the HD2 running Android. And when it fails you just shut the phone off and reboot...
