Is there a way to reset / calibrate the haptic feedback on this phone? My wife's phone is having an issue when you press the home/menu/etc buttons. The vibration is BARELY noticable, even though in the settings it is on "high", and feels really strong in the settings.. It works perfectly in the settings when you move the slider, but not when you hit the bottom buttons...
It's been doing it on her phone from stock 2.1 and on Eugene's Gingerclone 2.2.
Thanks!
I just flashed Nero v3 on my phone, and now my Haptic feedback isn't working right, just like hers... I was on stock 2.1 and it was perfect, now it's barely there..

Odin to stock. Only real choice. May work. May not.

Odin to stock JI6 or the unofficial 2.2?
I used Odin to go back to stock, then updated to Nero v3, and the Haptic feedback is still the same... I have it set on full (slider all the way to the right) but it only feels like it's at 25% or so..
The little things like this are what should be pointed to when ppl say, "Why are you complaining about not having an official 2.2 release? The developers make the leaks even better than stock!"
Sorry I have nothing to offer to fix your problem - except to say go back to JI6....

Looking for some users to test GPS lock times with this.
Requirements: DI01 software and modem.

Make a backup in Clockwork first. This installs with clockwork!
I would love to test this but i don't know what "modem"
Means.

if you are running DI01, you will be fine.
If you don't know what modem is... at this point in time you are probably fine
It still took around 2 mins to latch.

Strange business. Multiple reboots and a battery pull and I am still getting instalock. Just the modifications listed in my sig plus the dj05 gpssetup.apk.

dj05 gpssetup.apk?
Holy $h!T! This is the real deal GPS fix! I can lock 3 sats indoors, in a basement - never locked indoors before with this phone. Furthermore, I can lock 7 sats just walking outside. Gets initial lock in like 10 seconds from a cold start. Did have to shut off my wifi for some reason before it would turn on GPS at all. And, once GPS is turned on, the toggle in the pulldown for GPS stops working, always shows it as being turned on. Have to enable/disable it thru the settings->Location menu.
But that's a small trade off for how well this works!
My baseband is dio1 so i am downloading now.

Worked for me. Installation was a little scary, got stuck on bootscreen but a battery pull later, it loaded up just fine. Locking onto GPS sats indoors and outdoors very fast. Rebooted a couple of times and it locked on again very well.
GPS icon in the notification bar acts a little weird when trying to turn it off/on, but if you must toggle it, the "Power Control" widget does the trick. I never turn mine off since it doesn't run unless you use an app that utilizes it.
Perfect! Thanks Adrynalyne!!!
Initially looking good! Got a lock fairly quickly indoors. Will restart and test it outside. Thanks!
Edit tested outside after a reboot and lock was instant! This is the best fix by far!
Edit 2: Tested while moving on the road. Lock was slower, but where before GPS Test showed 10 in view and maybe 0-1 in use, the number in use climbed steadily and lock was about 30 seconds
For those of you noting the inability to turn on/off gps through notifications, I believe that is an issue with the latest StupidFast kernel. I run a stock system and my friend runs SuperDark and we both had that issue, after I reverted to an older StupidFast kernel I got my notification GPS control back.
Yup this works! I got a lock within 10 seconds indoors. Thanks for this.

hey guys, I wanna try this out but 1 question-
Is this fix pulled from the DJ05 release, or is it a mod of the DI01? How does it work? thanks

It is the DJ05 gpssetup.apk, pulled directly from the /system/apps folder.
I just recently flashed Superclean 2.9.2. Runs great, btw. Since I like touchwiz, I installed the TW framework from Adry's SC thread in the developers forum. Now, the power button doesn't offer a menu for shut off. A short press gets sleep mode, a long press has the phone vibrating like an error occurred and then resets. My guess is that it's due to the TW launcher. Any suggestions as to how to get a better TW launcher or a way to get the options to shut-off or airplane mode back?
Thanks.

You are probably putting frameworks/jars together that dont all have reboot options built in
Just reflash the rom...if you want twlauncher back just pull it from the deodexed eb01 in development or the modified one from crushd in themes/apps
Try launcher pro, you might like it... i was a little hesitant at first, but i cant stand tw now. Lp offers a more real android experience, tw is trying to be like the iphone. the combination of lp, sc 2.9.2, and spare parts and all the customizing you can do with each one makes for a hell of a fast, fun phone... imo

The one thing I've hated about DJ05, DL09, and now our Froyo releases is that the timeouts on the capacitive touchkey backlights have gotten longer and longer. In DI01 it was a couple of seconds, in DJ05 it was the length of your screen timeout, and by EB01 and beyond it's now the length of your screen timeout AND reset every time you touch *anything*.
Well, I've finally gotten around to figuring out where the change was (setScreenOffTimeoutsLocked() in PowerManagerService.smali in services.jar) and modding it back. Now, as in DI01, the keys will only light up for a few seconds after you press one. I haven't reverted the recent change of regular screen touches resetting this time after the touchkeys have gone on, though: since the baseline is very short, this isn't a big issue.
Note that the version of services.jar on which this is based is from Super Clean 2.9.2. However, a diff seems to show that the only difference between adrynalyne's services.jar and the stock EB01 is the inclusion, in the former, of the battery notification/data throttling removal mods. So it *should* work with any deodexed EB01-based framework, though I've only tested on the self-customized SC292 I'm running.
The mod does *not* interfere with BLN.
UPDATE 4/28: I've removed the previous EC01/ED01 versions because they were turning on the lights a bit too often (screen press as well as button press). Instead, here are two fixed Edify-script versions for ED01.
Evil Fascination/stock ED01 folks should use shortlight-evil341, which basically just includes the light fix and the sbrissen mods. Community ROM folks should use shortlight-community12, which has a couple of other options unique to that framework.
The new files include a permissions fix, so just install the zip and reboot. (Those installing the original file -- SC292/EB01 and Amend only -- still need to manually mount /data and /dbdata and run the fix permissions script in CWM 2.5 after installation.) First boot will take a while.
UPDATE 5/17: From version 3.5 forward, Evil Fascination folks should use the community zip as well. Evil341 is still good for stock ROM users.
UPDATE 6/13: New version (shortlight-cROM2) uploaded for Community ROM 2.0. Edify only, like the 4/28 version.
UPDATE 8/31: New version for Powerwashed (ED05). Edify only.
To be honest I like it when the keys are lit up. Especially in the dark and you're trying to hit one of those buttons. But I do agree that they shouldn't be on after you lock the screen....

Do your keys really stay lit up after you lock the screen? What rom are you using these days?
I'm running Adyn's latest superclean (2.92) and jt's ec10 kernel (TW_kernel-0327-2) and haven't seen this issue. I'm wondering if there is a bug somewhere that is causing this issue with other people.
I don't have a problem with their time staying on..I do wish they weren't so bright..
Has anyone noticed that the in-call "buzz" is related to the soft-key lights being on? I haven't used a Touchwiz ROM in a while (including Superclean), but this is something I've noticed running other ROMs.
This fix might help with that.
Awesome!! Thanks, I can't stand the long backlight time. This is perfect!

Yep.
It's funny, a bunch of people like the long lights -- and it's their complaints, I think, that made Samsung edit the behavior in later firmwares. But I'm also sure there are a bunch of people who don't, so now there's a choice.
I also think if the lights were as muted as they are on, say, a Captivate, things might be different.
I tried this out. If I wake up my phone the lights stay off but as soon as I press one they never go off until the phone goes to sleep again.

Yea, the lights help locate the buttons in the dark, but they are so bright that they almost overpower the screen. As handy as they are, I'd rather do without them all together personally. But this is a great compromise.

Yikes, you wiped data!
Don't do that, this is a tiny framework change. (I think I'll add that to the OP.)
Not sure what could be off -- I assume the framework didn't change between 2.9.1 and 2.9.2. You used Red clockwork and not Orange, right? Maybe try reflashing...
(Since you're also in the SC thread, note that flashing any ROM will undo this change.)

This by far is the best mod yet. Not to dis the other great developers but I really hate that the backlights are brighter than my screen and always on.

My mistake, I didn't wipe data, only cache and dalvik (that's what I get for typing in a hurry).
I have Red clockwork, the latest from 3/30. I'll try again after my battery finishes charging.
Bizarrely, the lights seem to revert to "always on after touch" mode while the screen is in power-low super dim mode. Not sure if or how I can do anything about this.

I bet that was why it wasn't working for me. I was only at about 5% battery when I tried this.
Works perfectly for me.
Nice job.
Also just a heads up for any noob. My first reboot after took extra long but went fine. No problems.

Whenever i charge my phone, display remains on unless i press the power button to put it on stand by..in 2.3 there are so many applicsations running in the background which makes it a bit laggy..and flash doesnt work even in vignette..
Flash issue in vignette is related application, and i hear vignette dev are on their way to fix it.
Are you on stock rom? Rooted or not?
You can remove some bloatware and useless apps from SE with Titanium backup if your phone was rooted.

I've a similar issue on my GF's phone, almost same problem, the light won't turn off for a long time unless pressing power button but her phone is an x8.
But this shouldn't happen on the stock 2.3.3.
i am using the stock 2.3, 2.3 is nice but i sort of miss 2.1, it was much faster..

about slowness problem : i highly recommend you to root your phone. flash stock DooMKernel then flash WB ROM. it may take some time but your phone will be superfast.
Xrecovery will be installed with the kernel. and the three thread are in development forum. and don't be afraid. WB ROM is very stable without any bug.and totally a stock Rom.

Ok I have a galaxy note i717. I have 2 problems that are absolutely horrible. One problem is if I recieve a phone call and have certain apps or games either open or were just open, my phone freezes. When I say freeze I mean all I hear is my ringtone, I have no way to answer, and my phone is a paper weight till I power cycle it, once I turn it back on I see no missed calls, and have no idea who called me. The other is I slide to unlock my phone and it is extreemely slow, I press a button and wait an average of about 3-5 seconds before it opens, and every button I push is just as slow, this problem seems random, but I think it has something to do with the other problem. I am right now running black jelly, it is not the rom as all the Jelly Bean Roms have this problem. One solution posted is to revert it to stock ics then have Samsung do the upgrade to Jelly Bean, then reroot it, same problem and did not change. I really want to get a good Jelly Bean rom that works for my i717. I can get any ICS Custom Rom to work correctly, so I will revert it just to get normal functionality, if no one knows how to fix this. This is the last thing I am going to try before reverting back to ICS. Any help is appreciated.

That made it much better I removed my screen saver, and also turned power saver mode off. After I changed that setting the phone worked correctly most of the time. It still runs slow sometimes, but I just turned power saving mode off, so we will see, thanks for the help, the ripple screen lock was doing something bad as it got much better when I removed it.
I tested my phone for a few days, it seems the phone call thing is fixed, thanks for the info about the ripple screen saver. Only problem I currently have is if I forget and leave my game running on a certain screen that is animated and it screen locks, when I unlock and start using the phone it is extreemely slow. A simple restart fixes it, and I am fine with that as my phone actually works correctly most of the time. I was researching the problem and the GPU settings may be the answer, but I have no idea what settings need to be set. One setting is Force GPU rendering ( use 2d hardware acceseration in applications) currently it is turned on. Was thinking also kill all background processes, I really don't know, Anyone out there an expert with GPU or how to finish tweeking my phone.
