ComRom screen rotating even when locked - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Even when i hit the toggle the screen rotates, i saw other people had the same issue. I asked the devs if it was meant to be that way but they must have missed my post. Does anyone else have this issue?

The launcher is meant to rotate, nothing else should if the setting is off.

Thats my issue, the setting is off and it still rotates.

What is rotating? Everything or just while on the launcher? The launcher will rotate with the setting off, but no other apps should.

oh ok, i dont get that really, i switched back to launcherpro bc it doesnt do that.

Lol ya, I did not understand why they tweaked the launcher that way. It's in the release notes stop it seems intentional.

Theu tweaked the launcher to rotate. But it doesnt hook the rotation toggle. So it'll rotate regardless if rotation is turned off or not. Blame samsung or nitsuj17

I gotta change my sig to reflect that, it seems people use comrom or some deviation bc its quick to say maybe. In any respect now i can switch back to the reg launcher, i appreciate it. Would there be a way to mod in the future to use of of the things that launcherpro and adw afford us, like having just the icons without the names of the apps, of changing the icons of the apps while on the desktop?

Sorry to go off topic (your answer ends topic anyways), but that is because the thread title is not "Ultimate KangBang". I thought its name was simply community rom as I'm sure others did.

[Q] Any issues in my remove list

I've looked through numerous threads, but the opinions are pretty mixed.
Does anyone predict issues with removing any of these apps?
I will not be using Sense.
I'm making a flashable zip to remove these so I don't need to manually do it every time I flash a new ROM.

Yeah, I know. Kind of expecting that.
But, I have used search, I have frozen them (had other errors from nightly, so hard to narrow down), but I just want to see if anyone else has had problems before I write the rest of the script.

He means that it should have been in the Q&A section, not the dev section. So now that we have that clear, if you're not using a sense rom, those things shouldn't be in there in the first place. If you are using a sense based rom, removing anything that says htc in it could cause problems.

Dammit, too many xda tabs. Can I get a mod to move it for me?
Eh, wrong section, but by now, you already know that. Try to post in the right section next time.
Anyways, you'll be fine with that list, just be advised that if you remove the lockscreens and their idlebases, you'll lose Incoming Caller ID. You'll need to unlock before answering each time.
Also, if you're going to debloat, you might as well remove Burgandy and Blue Sky, as well as the Streak Wallpaper and the Live Weather Wallpaper. Both are ultimately useless, the streak wallpaper isn't exactly dramatic, and the weather live wallpaper (2 apks) are also useless and all you have to do is look at the weather app to see them. Those two apks combined are massive in comparison to the rest.
Might as well add "MyReportAgent.apk" to the mix.
Thanks....

For me the most welcome change is... *drumroll*.. folders! lol. The drag and drop kind, the ICS imitating kind. Mmm. I love the ease of use with these folders and I had tried all kinds of programs and such. After installing ICS on my Captivate and using the folders I was just not satisfied with anything less.
The "trash can" you are talk bout.. Is that the "drag, hold, drop to unistall"? Because it is still there, hasnt gone anywhere with this update. If you are not seeing it check your settings.
In addition to the ICS folders there are other random ICS features/thingies built into the new ADW EX. I love love love the new update, disappointed to hear you dont.
EDIT: Oh and you asked about the hidden dockbar.. I never used it myself but I think I read in the "setup" for the new ADW EX that it is still there, it just behaves differently now since you can scroll the dockbar (on phones, on tablets you wont have to scroll because there will be enough room for all the icons).

I just checked and I could not find the option to move the trash can to the bottom either, maybe that option has been removed. Personally I prefer it on top and always had it there.. Hopefully you will see the value of ADW EX after playing around with it a little, but hey everybody likes things differently right? Good luck.

Yeah some of the new features look nice, but i've already caused trouble...
One new bug btw. Set 5 icons on main dock bar, rotate in potrait and landscape, and tell me why this new update ****ed up the order. Previous version did it correctly, this version orders them differently
im sure liking the new one... tho one thing that is bugging me is i cant seem to edit the icon in the dock... been trying to get the ICS app draw icon there but i cannot edit the icon pic.... hmm
honestly I'm using this ICS 3d mint theme on the market for CM7 with the new ADW and its awesome it really looks beautiful and also the new scrolling dock bar really helps get rid of all the annoying widgets that are memory hogs.

These are the post I like most. First, you have a guy passionate about his phone and the app. Secondly, you get a good explanation/changelog about the new version, and C. You find the answer to simple questions to things like settings because people are so annoyed by the post. Don't kill the guys passion, just tell him why he's wrong so we can all benefit.

ROM impressions - TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION

Hi,
I wanted to express my opinion about the TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION rom.
The ROM is perfectly smooth - just works out of the box. It may appear deceptively simple, but the long update list in Development thread's OP provides a good explanation why it works so well.
If you had spent some time running Hybrid or Collective Troposphere ICS ROMs then you will be surprised to see the ATT boot animation (though I'm sure that if it's not to your liking then it can be replaced with any other animations that had been posted in different threads )
And another great thing about this ROM is the developer response time - appdroid is actively monitoring the thread and before I had time to load the stock rom there was an update for mms FC that was reported - now that's impressive.
The only issue that I had observe is phone hanging when trying to restart the phone. Happened two times but on third reboot it was ok. Didn't seem to be reported by anyone else so may be just my phone?
Oh, and if you are as adventurous as I am - don't try flashing Tablet Mode UI fix - I already did That will FC System UI and Launcher. From everything I've read in Hybrid thread I knew that this couldn't work, but just had to try (perhaps the fact that I got tablet UI working really well in Troposphere ROM contributed to the desire to make this attempt)
Edit - both of the issues listed above are gone, kind of. Did the exact same steps as earlier and this time rebooted fine without hanging. That part is for sure. As for the Tablet mod - it works fine at the DPI above 213. Again, make sure you flash TabUI_all_DPI.zip as this is the one I tested. 320 DPI is too big, but I think 240 should work fine.
Edit2 - Tablet UI works! Just not with default launcher. I was able to get 213 DPI resolution to work with Go Launcher, but Nova should also work
If you are a new user like me and cannot post in Development thread then you are welcome to add your impressions here. Other senior contributors are also welcome
I don't intent to move all of TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION-related discussion here, especially since appdroid is monitoring his thread very closely. But it's nice to finally have a voice.

That's great news. Will give it another try.
I assume that you loaded the new Tablet UI enabler zip (TabUI_all_DPI.zip) and ran it at <= 213 DPI?
Edit - did you also observe hanging on shutdown/reboot?

Thank you. I got it all working now, just had to load another launcher (go launcher) BEFORE loading tha tablet UI (though I used the latest multi-DPI zip) and it worked fine at 213 DPI. If you can, please post in Development thread as people are asking and I still can't post there. I will PM Jay (appdroid) too.
Love this rom. there's just something about it like. Flashed A couple of roms but always found myself nandroiding back to gb. Been on this since last night and after a full run today I like it a lot.
Only thing I changed was the launcher to apex. Just needed something that looked stock but gave me more grid space. Works great.
Swapped the mms.apk with the one from tye noteworthy thread and no more fc there.
Now I just need to get tethering working.

Thank you. And of course if you want to run at or below 213 DPI you need to replace contacts app. But then again, if you don't care about samsung dialer commands (like #*2263#) then might as well replace the whole dialer, as at that resolution some dialer buttons in stock dialer are partially cut off.

Tried both before posting - none works.
Of course your post is a clear indication that it works for you. That means it's just my system then.
I think its a fantastic ROM so far. I had a couple FC's when doing the initial contacts sync with gmail and then when trying to put weather on the lockscreen. Other than that this ROM is fantastic. I think this might be one I stick with until the second leak comes out or the official ICS push.....Thanks DEV's!!!!!!

Same here. Though I might miss some of the tools available in other ROMs
Sometimes I wish we had a sticky thread with ALL the updates available globally (i.e. rom-independent) so we could get those as needed. Just like we have for Accessories forum.

Completely remove ripple lockscreen?

How can I completely remove the ripple lockscreen from my device? I am using Go launcher ex and go locker, they work well except when the device is rebooted it shows the ripple lockscreen which i have to unlock in order to see the go locker screen and unlock that as well.
As for lockscreen after that go locker works fine and I dont see that ripple screen. Any suggestions?
Thanks

yes, since it's a 3rd party lockscreen, changing it has nothing to do with the go launcher lockscreen. I dont use go locker I use widget locker and it still works after setting the samsung lockscreen to none.

Take it easy, no need to be rude while answering a question, then go through the trouble of editing again and explain how long it took you to find it. If you cant help it, keep your solution to yourself
I think the posters point was that you should have done the digging yourself instead of posting on XDA and making someone else do it for you. I don't think he was being rude, but probably spends time answering questions that are easily answerable with just a tad bit of exploration :angel:

You could have easily looked through the options before posting. Is that too difficult? Apparently so.. But instead expect other people to do the leg work for you..

Future ROM feature wishlist

So I know that the devs are hard at work on getting us all kinds of CM, AOSP, and/or AOKP goodness, but I thought maybe if any of the devs are looking for some features to add it might be nice to have a thread they can refer to with everyones "wants" once the "needs" are met.
I'll start it off with a request to add support for BLN (back light notification) to an upcoming kernel. This, combined with the option to put the navigation bar on while dissabling the HW keys would be a great feature IMHO. Not to mention our stock notification LED pretty much sucks a big one.
ROM feature requests
Flashlight in notification drawer quick settings
More options in the shutdown menu (Boot to recovery, etc)
Get rid of the idiotic audio policy of volume reduction when plugging in headphones
Allow dialer rotation
The option to see the standard swipe lock screen before the secure lock.
True music controls on the lock screen
Better control of status bar icons (center clock, hide icons, change colors of icons, etc)
The ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume
Volume rocker music controls
Universal Qslide
Kernel feature requests
BLN
Enable audio through USB for devices like the Infuse Car Dock (I think this is a kernel issue, if not let me know and I'll put it with the ROM stuff)
I didn't see a similar thread on here, so if there is, kindly point me to it and a mod can delete this one. And if BLN support already exists in Sk8's kernel tell me that too, ha ha.
I haven't looked into the ROMs because I'm liking stock, but a request I do have for when I do decide to flash is to have a flashlight if it hasn't been incorporated into the ROMs out now. There's a lot of times where I need to look for something and don't feel like turning on my light switch. Would be a nice thing to be implemented if it hasn't been done and can be done.

Have you tried this?

I added the widget on my homescreen for instant on/off.

I don't know if this is what you have in mind, but I use TeslaLED: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.flashlight&feature.. It has a widget you can add to the homescreen for a quick on off, as well as some other features. I actually have it as one of my lock screen apps. I wish there was a way to have it turn on when opened from the lockscreen, but it's only one extra tap.
Edit: Gah! John beat me to one.
PS: TeslaLED is only 512K, whereas Tiny Flashlight is anything but at 1.5M

Thanks guys. Can't think of anything else right now.

I would love more options on the power button. Reboot to recovery, etc...

My wishlist:
1. Get rid of the idiotic audio policy of volume reduction when plugging in headphones
2. Allow dialer rotation
3. Enable audio through USB for devices like the Infuse Car Dock.
The two features I really want to see are:
- The option to see the standard swipe lock screen before the secure lock.
- true music controls on the lock screen instead of using the notification controls
sent from my LGOG
My biggest things are center clock, ability to hide things on status bar, and a flashlight toggle. The Base has done pretty well but I would love a flashlight toggle in my quick settings in my notification drawer. The swipe for flashlight thing was so touchy that I disable it.
Also, I love the theme chooser app and ability to have easy themes for my ROMs like in CM10 and AOKP
EDIT: also the ability to boot straight into download and recovery mode like in certain other ROMs using the power button.

The Base ROM does have a flashlight built in, you can activate it in the notification drawer options.
I was using Tesla until I found this.
Though I do wish it was in the Quick Settings too.
I would also love native reboot options.
And lastly, I would love the ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume.
I know. The swipe thing only works half the time and half of that half, I end up with The Base force closes

Really, it actually works quite well for me.
Haven't had a base fc yet... you may want to reinstall and try again.

I had actually forgot about this feature. I just tried it again and sometimes it takes three or four swipes to turn on. Might be user error though.
Swipe for torch works perfect for me.
Reboot options would be nice.
Volume Button Music controls would be nicer.
I actually came up with a wish while looking at the android dev section.
It doesn't actually have to do with the rom itself, but I'm hoping that as things become further developed to not only have a Changelog but to have a what's working list/what's not working list or just the latter.
I see a lot of threads gets bogged down with DOES THIS WORK? IS THIS INCLUDED?
Granted there's a group of people out there that don't read and just flash, but it could be helpful for another group of people that compare and contrast roms (like myself) before flashing.
Anyone else agree?

That makes sense to me. :thumbup: I wonder if xda could get a ROM form together so all the devs can include all the same info in their ROM's thread's OP. I don't know how practical that would be, but it would be nice to have some standardization.

That is a pretty cool idea.
But from what I've seen, most ROM posts actually follow a pretty basic design.
We seem to be the odd ones out.
