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

IDK if people knoww about this, but today on my brothers vibrant which is fully stock, no lag fixes no root.
When its booting, i pressed the menu button over and over again then at the bottom it says SAFE MODE, but doesnt work on ROMS, because devs probably removed it or soemthing..
did anyone know about this?
It does work on roms it happened to me three days ago but had no idea what it was our how I did it pulled the battery and it was gone

oh i tried it on axura and it didnt work...
probably just me.
More to the point, does anyone know what it is for?
hmm.... I used to have this in the sticky but nobody ever could tell me it worked so I removed it....

Yes if you boot and hold the menu button, it will go into safe mode. This means that it will disable all third party apps and services. You'll notice your installed widgets not working. It is annoying because when you reboot again, you'll have to take off your widgets and then replace them again. This mode is in case you get a rouge app, so you can uninstall before it starts. Kind of like window's safe mode.
basically what he said ^^
I've gotten into safe mode once by accident, without intending to do so.
I hear you hold the menu capactive button down while turning on your phone, but I can't reproduce safe mode. I'm running rooted stock 2.2 kb5.
How do you get into safe mode? Holding the menu button down and turning on isn't doing it for me.
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.)
Thanks! I have been looking for this!

It worked perfectly for me, and I didn't wipe anything - data, cache or dalvic.
thank you very much s44, I've always wanted this!
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.

I'm using ComRom 1.2 - every time you adjust the volume it turns the screen on. It's kinda annoying if you're just listening to music. Any way to fix it?
Looks like both Community Rom and Evil Fascination suffer from this due to something in ED01. Hoping for a fix myself as I find my battery life is suffering as a result of the screen waking up on and off while its in my pocket.
lol, suffer? It was edited as a feature to the comm rom and since nitro kangs the comm rom as a base for his rom that's why both roms "suffer" from that feature.
good day.
They should set it as a option in tsm parts

I realize it is a feature and most people would like it. I was trying to find a way to disable it since I accidentally turn it on more now than before (in my pocket, etc). I noticed thatdudebutch had a disable fix on the Thunderbolt.http://www.multiupload.com/TC787BVBR5
I wonder if it might work or if it might be changed to work on evil or community rom?
I don't understand what the benefits of this feature are other than wasting battery life (not a benefit)
I love that they added this... i stopped using widget locker and i had really missed this feature.

Why on earth is this considered a good feature? How many buttons do you need to wake this thing up when in your pocket?
I have been looking for over an hour some way to disable the volume wake. Its pointless, and I certainly do not need my phone waking up in my pocket.
I find pressing the power button pretty easy. Dont need it on the volume key as well........ Really hard on the battery
This is something you should go out of your way to enable, not disable
Hey, I have used Odin a couple of times to get back to stock EDO3. Each time the touch screen is EXTREMLY laggy! Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions to resolve this problem. as soon as I root and go back to a rom, the problem is gone. It's only the stock TW launcher that is laggy.
Thanks

Isn't that your solution right there?
The whole reason we root and use customs is for more control. The stock rom with tw IS laggy. Thats why nearly everyone on the fascinate roots and uses a custom...
I really don't understand this thread.
Oh....that's why I root too but I need to get back to stock for now. By "laggy" I mean that it takes 5 seconds to move between home screens. Sometimes the phone even goes to sleep while I'm trying to move between screens. Oh well, LP works fine so I'll just use that. BUT.... TW launcher was never even close to being this troublesome in the past....
Is the lag ONLY when going between home screens?
Yes, seems to be a lag between home screens. Once you get into an app, or e-mail or something it is fine. It's also hard to come out of an app back into the home screen...if that makes any sense...
I was using the EDO3.Tar file to odin back to stock.
I have now Odined back to DLO9 and did all the updates to current and that has solved the laggy TW launher problem on stock.
Just FYI.....
Thanks for the help.......
Background:
I started off with with stock ROM + Root. I then applied the 14 toggle Mod. I've also applied a battery meter mod from UOT. I've recently flashed Mikey's S8 ROM which if my memory serves, had the CRT(?) animation when locking the phone. Well I decided that I was more of a fan of the 14 toggle mod than the one that Mikey included in his ROM (just personal preference). I applied the 14 toggle mod after flashing S8.
Problem:
If I hold down the power button, my phone appears to perform a 'soft' reboot. It looks like my launcher crashes which causes the reboot possibly. I get no menu when holding the power button down, just the crash. I also have no animation when pressing the power button to lock the screen.
Is there anyway to resolve this without reflashing S8?

Unless you are very technically inclined and have a lot of extra time to waste
there is no way to resolve this issue unless you reflash the rom.
Reflashing the rom is by far the fastest, easiest and the most sure way
to resolve your issues.
I was hoping there may be a couple files that I could replace and flash. I'm fairly technical, but still learning the ins and outs with Android. My only Qualm with reflashing is running into the same issue with the Battery Mod and 14 toggle Mod.

I can tell you one thing for sure, and that is that the 14 toggle mod
is NOT causing the problem at all. I use it all the time and I also
use the UnNamed 1.04 custom rom.
So most likely it's the Battery Mod which is causing the problem.
I use the blue neon digital battery mod with my phone which works great.
Try to install/flash a different battery mod see what happens.
Good Luck!
