I have 2 infuses, mine running JB CM10 fantastically (thanks Scott et Al) and my sons back on stock rooted GB. My problem is when ever I gry to flash a better ROM such as emancipation... or simply entropy's kernel for GB I lose the use of the screen on a phone call. As soon as the call is placed or received the screen goes dark and stays there till the call terminates... am not new to flashing... did all the necessary cleaning prior to install and ended up odening back to a form of stock GB. Works fine in both stock and rooted stock, any suggestions?

My phone does something similar, I just tap the proximity sensor and it usually comes back up.
There are apps in the market place that can read out your sensor info

Op: are you saying that on 1 infuse, it works fine. The other infuse, custom rom causes prox sensor loss?
That is to say, that 1 particular infuse, only stock kernel will work?
I recalled 6 months back, another user mentioned this to me. despite of all he did, other custom firmware causes prox sensor loss. Only stock kernel ran his phone properly. He traded his in or upgraded..I don't recalled exactly.

Everytime i have tried flashing a CM7 based rom, and i've tried almost all of them, once the screen goes to sleep it won't wake up. i think that's called sleep of death (SOD), pardon my n00bness if i'm wrong. the odd thing is that when i press the wake button, the phone and even the digitizer wake up because i can hear/feel the phone unlocking when i make the sliding motion on the screen, but the screen itself will not wake up. Does anyone have any idea what's causing this? or better yet any ways of preventing/fixing this?
Do you have this issue on stock?

What kernel r u using? If u flashed uv kernel try to use stock voltage, some devices don't work well with custom uv kernels

I have this problem with all 3 kernels, stock, oc UV, and oc stock voltage .. I've had this phone for a month now, this is what makes it a waste of money for me. Even my girl has this problem with her g2x, yesterday I put cm 7.1, hers started doing it too.. and she's had 3 replacements..

Did u wipe ur data and format system before flashing? Try to fix permission too. Only guessing but maybe the battery is bad, as far as I know u not getting new one with replacement, so if u had same issue on stock rom that could be a problem.
I had 2 replacements but had that problem only if undervolt too much.

No this issue only occurs on CM7 based roms, OTA 2.3.3 based roms work great

I haven't purposely flashed any non-stock kernels alongside the roms, unless all the roms i flashed included UV kernels....but i've flashed almost every CM7 based rom

I did wipe data, format system and even fix permissions and still same problem occurs, I don't think it has to do with the battery tho because stock OTA based roms don't have this issue...it must be something particular about the CM7 base
Also, could it be the fact that i have the WIND mobile optimus 2x? it says p999-DW on the back though
use miui it doesnt have the SOD problem cm7 did it the last time i had it (3 days ago)
Is it possible, at all, for a kernel to disable the internal sensors in a way that even a reflash with any rom/kernel/RUU does not re enable them?
The following sensors quit working after a kernel flash..
phone never has been handled hard or dropped, 3 months old.
accelerometer
gyroscope
light
magnetic field
orientation
proximity
lights under button after sleep state.

PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO COMPLETELY FREEZE YOUR PHONE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU USE THESE FILES AND YOU MISS YOUR NEXT MEETING.
I was playing around and after reading and searching through some threads, finally got somewhere with something I've wanted since my iPhone days - Screen rotation animations.
Attached are 2 files you can unzip, then copy and paste into /system/lib/ using root explorer.
This will make your screen animate when it auto rotates.
BEWARE. I have had limited success with Home Launchers that can rotate. The phone completely locks up and you have to restore from a backup.. if anyone can help figure this out i'd greatly appreciate it.
I'm looking for a few brave testers to let me know if it works with the ROM of their choice. I have not tested it on stock yet, it may work perfectly. Who knows.
Hmm....what kind of animations are they? Can't imagine other than just the stock flop when u rotate ur phone.

That's what this is...these files are taken directly from the at&t note, and on my phone running nexusMod 4, the screen rotates just like the note does.

I'm on NexusM0D 4 as well, but it soft bricked my phone. I tried using Root Explorer as well as an ADB push and neither worked. Had to push the original files back to phone via ADB since phone boot looped at the Samsung logo
I had the brilliant idea of replacing the files when the phone was still running...

Here's a preview build now that my source tree is mostly sorted out: http://www.mediafire.com/?1nhagihfoqqpkf3
To flash, you must first flash this recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/?2000k5y512spft4
Then boot into recovery, wipe data/cache, go to mounts and storage and format system, then flash the rom. Gapps are here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip . You'll probably have to mount system manually under mounts and storage before flashing gapps.
I've only tested this using gingerbread bootloaders, no idea if it works using froyo bootloaders. If you don't want to deal with the caveats of gb bootloaders, then well, fix it yourself.
what works:
radio (calls/sms/data)
touchscreen
audio
wifi
sensors
hw acceleration
software and hardware video decoding
data usage monitor (for wifi at least)
what doesn't work:
camera/camcorder
bluetooth
anything else is either broken or completely untested.

for some reason with all my phones ive never been aware of my bootloaders... i think its because i just flash cm and never look back,
so if i flashed cm7 right after rooting (now on miui) would i be on GB as well? is there a quick way to check.

Therez no way to check bro. Same spot as you. When i home from school, ill try flashing. But just try flashing with froyo bootloaders, it may work. If it doesnt, then odin back to stock.

I think you're right, the first time I flashed i had the rainbow and i was on froyo bootloaders, after restore to GB it came up fine.
Prior to flashing CM9 I had just Heimdalled back to AT&T UCBL3, so I'm not sure why I wouldn't have GB bootloaders...

How long did it take you all to get off of the initial Samsung logo at start up to the cm9 boot animation after flashing? It has been roughly 10 minutes so far and it hasn't moved. My recovery is all screwed up with funny colors, but it's nice to know that others have encountered the weird recovery as well... was on Devestion before following the steps for flashing cm9.
I have a rooted Nexus S i9023 running CM9 RC1 with Air Kernel... I usually have auto rotate turned off because I don't like it! But then a few days back my device used to auto rotate automatically with the rotate being turned off.. It solved itself after a few days so I didn't bother. But it's just stuck in landscape mode and will not switch no matter what I do! It happened while I was using KangyU also and it happened with it also 3 times. Everytime I need to perform a factory reset and flash a new ROM and then it solves :/ I used androsensor and it does show a value for Accelerometer but my phone simply does not rotate! Is there a problem with my accelerometer? Do i need to give it to the service center or can I do something that will solve it? Any help appreciated
If doing a factory reset/ reflash fixes it. Then it is not a hardware issue.
Not factory reset persay. I need to flash a new ROM for it to go normal
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
This is probably a problem with your Kernel or ROM, please flash a stock ROM to ensure that the accelerometer is fine. If you are afraid you might lose anything make a backup or so.
Okay yeah AiRKernel might be the problem. Thanks I'll try it and let you know. Thanks!

I went stock.. But AndroSensor is still showing the same reading it was showing on CM9.. And the auto-rotation bug only comes after a few weeks into any ROM.. Also everytime that occurs I get a prompt saying
" Complete action using
Clock
Tune In Radio "
Everytime I get that pop-up I'm stuck on landscape for infinity. So can it be an app problem? It's happened so far on 3 ROM's I've used (KangyU, CM9, Paranoiandroid)
so I doubt whether it is a ROM issue. Maybe a Kernel issue because I've used AirKernel on all 3 of them
Could be either I suppose. Not sure how either could cause it though
The sensor read out should be the same no matter what rom is on there. That is normal. The app itself tells you what the read outs from each sensor should be as well
My point. But what I mean is, If readings are the same then the behaviour should be same as well right? Where is the accelerometer exactly located?

If a new rom and kernel didn't fix it then it might be hardware.
Strangest thing happened. I uninstalled Tune In Radio and voila auto rotate back! So the app was the issue! But any idea what might have possessed that app to do so? :/
