I'm running a senseless rom and the only thing not working is when going into Phone Settings, clicking on either Phone Rintone or Notification Sound, the app crashes with force close. Any fix out there for this or idea to fix? Thanks.
Ever since I updated to BAMF 2.0 Beta 6 from Froyo (did a full wipe), I've been unable to answer calls when my phone is on standby. When somebody calls me, the only option at the bottom is to "End Call," as if I'm already in the call with them. If I'm using my phone when they call, however, both buttons appear as expected. Has anyone else experienced this?
It was happening to me after I disabled the Sense lockscreen. I went in to the Bamf Toolkit/system settings and checked Sense locksreen. It will automatically restart after you change the options. If its on toggle it off, let it reboot and then toggle it back on. It worked for me. Hope this helps!

Unfortunately, that didn't work for me. I also tried wiping the cache and Dalvik cache. Do you know if you may have changed any other settings as well?
Also, I use Launcher Pro instead of the Sense UI. Could that have anything to do with it?
It turns out that the problem was caused by the Mr. Number app.
Still can't answer calls!
I've read through everything I can find in here and the only solution I've found was to disable Mr Number call blocker, which I do not have. It ONLY does this when I have the sense lock screen disabled (because it's laggy and I prefer the classic slider). I can live with it, but they wouldn't have added the option to disable it if you they knew it would remove the "answer" button. Even a fresh install with no apps does this. I've cleared dalvik and regular cash 2 more times, did another factory reset, and no fix. Anyone ever figure this one out? BTW this is the newest das bamf sense 3.0, but it also happened with 2.0 beta6.
i too am facing this on das bamf 2.1 with sense lockscreen disabled, need a fix! I really do not like the sense 3.0 lock screen
This needs to get put in a sticky or something...
The fix is to use 'WidgetLocker' $1.99 off the market. This has fixed this identical issues on at least 3 different roms that I know of. When you disable the sense lockscreen, you can't answer calls normally unless you use WidgetLocker.
I have been flashing rom after rom in an attempt to find one that runs quickly, and doesn't have some major issue that causes me to re-flash. In this case I was quite satisfied with liquid gingersense 1.2 until I installed the sense 2.1 lockscreen, and then enabled stock android lockscreen under settings. Now, no matter what I switch around I cannot answer calls. This is not including widgetlocker.. I have not bought it yet. I was hoping to find a way around adding an app to fix something that shouldn't be broken. I thought I was set at first because I switched to sense 2.1 lockscreen and tested it with success. Then I switched to stock android lockscreen. Both unlocked the phone when recieving a call and had an answer button.. I went to bed, and then this morning it went back to the same old routine. Very strange. Why would it work, and then cease to work without any additional changes made?
I second the Mr Number suggestion
removed Mr Number and so far so good
I was wondering how these worked, right now I have it enabled. Whenever I miss a call the bottom buttons on the bottom light up (menu, home, back...) and they do not go away until I clear the missed call notification. I was wondering if this is the way it is supposed to work? all there is to it? are there any settings where I can make them blink? I was thinking it would be more like the app noLED.
I'm sorry if this is a N00b question with an obvious answer, I have searched but can't find the answer.
thanks for any/all replies!
That's referred to as BLN (BackLight Notification). Its supposed to light up for missed calls, texts, emails, or any other notification. Its suppoed to state lit up til you clear it. What you are describing is expected behavior. There is an app in the market called BLN something, to manage it, built for the Captivate. There is also an app called blinky that worked on the captivate to make them blink.
In theory it should work better than NoLED, it should take less battery and processor. It hasn't been implemented in the stock based ROMs (for the S II) because it causes the phone to not enter deep sleep mode (as does noLED). It must be new to CM7. Hopefully if it doesn't cause a wake lock in CM7 it can be ported back to stock based ROMs. This is the last feature I was looking for in the custom ROMs for this phone.

Yes what he said above except Blinky and BLN APP will not work for cm7 on the SGS2. Cm7 has its own setting to control it. You can disable them if you don't want to use led notifications from with the settings or CyanogenMOD settings.
Yes it creates a wakelock until you clear the message, missed call, etc. Then the wakelock goes away. Also there is a timeout for the led notification that can be controlled also.

Hello Everyone
Ok so ill state what i have first
Im running toasts CM9 rom previously i was on Miks Sense 3.5
anyway when i was on that rom vibrate would work fine for text messages, and that was the first time as it didnt work on any other roms either.
And now im on toasts CM9 and the vibrate doesnt turn on for texts at all....it works for calls and when im changing volume but if its a message nothing...basically all i get is the screen stays off and all of a sudden the notification light is blinking thats it...i tried SMS popup and it didnt do anything either.
So can anyone give me some advice.
Also if anyone can recommend an app to make texts appear on my tablet and allow me to send them from the tablet as well (i have juiced defender on my phone so its an issue with certain sms apps)
thank you
probably a stupid question but have you tried fixing permissions through recovery or reflashing the ROM? might be that your vibrator could be going out.. just my 2 cents
yeah i tried that just now thanks for the advice but it didnt work out
the strange thing is that vibrate works for everything else but texts
In your messaging app, click 'menu, settings' then there should be an option for notifications, and a checkbox for 'vibrate when notifications received' or something similar since I'm not on CM9.

Yeah I have that set to always vibrate and still nothing
Since it's working for calls but not texts... clear the application data..?
hello,
newbee here. I have acquire a sansung galaxy S2, and have a lot of fun with it.
trouble started when it rebooted at night. I figured out that some update or application crashes were the cause of it.
I think i rid of most of the issues, and got it pretty stable.
To avoid future complication, I even rid of the startup sound, but I can not rid off the vibration (especially the one when shutting down....)
I think it is part of the basic settings, and I did a lot of researches... no luck
Apps like Silent boot would not work either....
Do anyone know if it's even possible ?
If impossible, is ICS having the same issue, or can this be tuned ?
(i just can't believe no one thought of making that optional ...)
Please help me...
I'm on ICS and don't have that. It is part of system settings - sound. It usually is affected by the mode you have your phone set to (like if you have sound set to Sound and Vibrate or just Vibrate, etc). Try changing to just sound and see if that stops it from vibrating (or just silent mode with no vibrate).
Can also try to untick Vibrate on screen tap.
ICS is sweet... can't go back to GB... what you waiting for?!
Sorry, but this does not work (phone is rooted)
. tried vibration off no luck
. tried silent mode no luck
Is there someone who knows where is configured the vibration settings ?
I mean in which filesystem (full path if possible) ... ?
note: Official Samsung ICS for Unlocked Phones will come soon... unless there is a safe ROM and method to install it. For now I would concentrate on my Vibration issue.
Firstly, be patient. People will try to help you, doesn't mean the first answer fixes your problem.
As I stated... ICS does not have this problem. Phone makes no sound and no vibrate, if you set it that way on ICS.
How about give us more information. You said you're rooted but on GB. Are you using any different type of kernel other than stock? Like Siyah 2.xx?
As the filesystem where you can doodle with removing vibrations... I will leave someone with more experience to deal with that (even if I know the path)... in case I advise you something that can screw things up after.
*you might want to reset the phone - as the system notification/vibration settings should have done the trick.
hello
I upgraded to 4 versions of ICS.
Each one of them did not correct the issue : it still vibrate when shutting down the phone. (darkyrom, OCA, Pure and a "4.0.4" version having a clever 3 way option to launch (Nova, TW and Apex)).
I did not reset the settings yet but I will give it a go.
I will the thread updated.
That's a very strange bug then. The settings to control that though, is not with the launchers but with System Settings.
Maybe try this:
System Settings - Volume <inside there you have 4 settings. Try changing System to very low or all the way off. Then go to the whatever mode you have it set to (like Silent Mode or whatever)... and select Mute.
Then the lower categories of System... uncheck all of them: Keytones, Touch sounds, Screen lock sound, Vibrate on screen tap.
See if that works. If it does, then can narrow it down to one of those settings.
Thank you very much
The simplest things are not always obvious to the common....
It works, the vibration disappeared when /SOUNDS/VIBRATION SETTINGS/Vibrate on touch was set to the lowest. Meantime, the little vibration at startup disappeared as well. Now the phone can crash, update and reboot at night without waking me up ! .. a good logcat reader (just in case) running in background will help cleaning up when some error occurs....
Once again, thank you: that drove me mad.
Glad that worked. You're right, sometimes the simplest things are not always obvious, for everyone ;-)
