(Question) Default landscape - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I run evil fascinate with otb 1.3 stock voltage. For some reason, even after fxpms, full wipe.....my screen no longer can be in the portrait position. I also can not utilize any lock screen. How do I fix this?

which version of evil fascination are you using? if you're still using the 3.5.1, i think theres a tsm settings in your settings menu, and there might be an enable auto-rotation option.
i updated to 3.6 and since updating, the tsm settings aren't there for me anymore, but i have no problem with switching from portrait to landscape

I am using 3.51....auto rotate is off.....i can NOT get portrait at all. I also did a full wipe and then tried the com rom....same thing. Any help is appreciated

hmmm....that's really weird that your phone does that with two different roms.. i was gonna suggest you do a full data/cache wipe and flash ef 3.6 but since it happens even with com rom, im stuck as to what might be causing it

Bump for desperately needed help

is your sensor responding at all?
if not odin back to stock and see if it works there then if it still doesn't, chances are its hardware. But then if it does follow the directions to get back to EF

Same issue here. Odined back to DI01 then ota'd up to ED03. I kept having the problem. Called vzw and they are sending another phone. Said it is a hardware issue. Funny thing is it went away yesterday and has been fine since. I guess I will still swap the phone just to be sure.

The Compass Thingy On My Phone Isn't Working

So, first, i know the vibrant doesn't have a compass, it has some other **** that emulates it.... but that's not the issue here. the issue is, that it's not even functional anymore. It USED to work, but ever since last week, it just stopped. My phone doesn't rotate landscape in any apps, it doesn't rotate in the browser, or anything. Yes, the "auto-rotate" is ENABLED in settings.
I even tried to download a "compass" app to see what phone was reading, and it WASN'T reading.... i downloaded the "bubble" app to see what angle it was stuck at, and "bubble" said it was at +1 degress x +1 degrees. So i hit "calibrate" and now it's the same, but stuck at 0,0 instead now.
So how can i get this working again without wiping my phone? I know for the G1, there was this compass "file" or something we could delete, and it would reset the compass settings, and that worked for me, but what about the vibrant?
Miss read problem
I disagree. My compass mostly worked on the stock rom and a bubble app would work. This is sounding like more than the stock firmware issues.
Yea you're right I missed read his post that it stopped working completely.

If you are using the voodoo lagfix, try flashing a non voodoo kernel and see if the problem improves. A number of us have been having problems recently with the sensors stopping working completely and the common thread seems to be the voodoo kernels. Make sure you disable the lagfix first.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
not using voodoo,
using regular original lagfix on a rooted STOCK rom.
i think you are talking about the accelerometers, not the compass.
Mine too.
I also noticed that my Baseband version is T959UVJI5 and the build number now says Eclair where it was "none" (or something like that) before.
Was there an OTA.
I also noticed that the GPS is much, much better.
you're right, its the accelerometer, the vibrant doesn't have a compass. can someone think of a solution?

My phone is going crazy

Ok so my Fascinate is obviously rooted and I have the Frost theme on here and that's all I've done. I had SetCPU on here running the minimal setting recommend. I decided to take SetCPU off and when I did my screen shut off but the bottom buttons would still light up. I pulled the battery a few times and that seemed to fix it... or so I thought.
Every now and then the screen will randomly black out or the media scanner thing will be running in the notification bar, once I pull the battery it seems to fix it. I'm kinda lost on what to do, any ideas guys?

Do you have a backup made? What kernal do you have installed. If its an overclpcked one flash the stock kernal. Then go from there.

I was gonna say this too. I thought you mentioned needing to keep it in conservative mode to stop this from happening. Or to boot it up kill the process and try uninstalling it that way. It makes sense that you couldnt uninstall something like that while it is running without some issues.
i have the same problem and have no set cpu installed i had jt's kernal and set cpu but flashed the stalk kernal through odin back on and deleted set cpu any would help be great
Ugh I had my first fascinate do this. After much trial and error I decided that it wasn't any certain mod. It was just the phone its self. If its doing this I would recommended taking it back. Use Odin to flash back to stock. Hide the superuser app. Get a new phone while in ur 30 days and start all ovwr
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
well i just did wipe data/cache so maybe
Ya I was the one that posted it. It fixed it but then last night it started all over again :-( I went through Rom manger and fixed permissions. Will see what happens

[Q] Axura 2.2.5.7 Problems

Ok after a Odin back to stock, I decided to load up the newest version of the Axura Rom, without any themes just .7 and upon booting I received 2 forced closed error messages. One was the gingerbread keyboard and the other was com.android which kept disabling wireless and enabling airplane mode repeatedly. I have no idea what to do to resolve this issue any help would be greatly appreciated

I wish that was the case but, I've reflashed this thing over and over again, 2.2.5.6 works perfectly fine though.

Problem with phone.... help

Ok heres whats happening....
first of all, my phone is rooted and i have the latest super clean and kernal.... this has been happening on a variety of kernals and roms tho..
Randomly, out of nowhere, my phone reboots. (maybe this is normal, the kernal is crashing?)
the problem is that once it comes back, i seem to be missing some system applications like my contacts app (whenever i click on contacts in the phone, it crashes, and i dont have a contacts app to click)
and sometimes, my phone Settings app.... if u try to click menu on the home screen and click settings, nothing happens..... and i cant place widgets..
I have to reodin the phone completely and start from scratch....
This happens like once every couple weeks or so....
any ideas?
Try flashing it again w/ data/cache/dalvik wipe

Has this problem happened to others or is my phone defective

It sounds like some of the apps may be incompatiable with the verison you're using. I had a somewhat similar problem when first getting into roms. It may be worth going back to stock and then reflashing to the latest SC.
Not sure.. If it was just a compatibility problem I think it would not work right away... The problem I'm having is random after a spontaneous reboot

Try fixing it by flashing stock rom then re root > rom install > cwm

Reflash the rom! You should be good after that. Happened to me on cm7 but I went back to 2.2 after a while.

Are you using an aftermarket launcher like ADW or Launcher Pro?
I'm on trigger and have no problems. Are you sure you cleared cache and wiped data before you flashed the rom?

yes i did that but i dont know why that error keeps on popping out. and this is my first time having an error like that
I am getting the same pop up, and force closes, whenever I try to place a call. Started maybe a week ago or so, and can't recall what may have caused this. Long story short, I've have gone through my contacts an removed any dash, plus, and #1's I could find no luck. Reflashed BionixV1.3.1 and added OVERSTOCK 2.1 and still having call issues. I'm sure it's unrelated to the rom. Any ideas anyone?

Not sure when you guys downloaded it. They could have had a server problem. I would redownload the rom and flash it again. Odin back to stock if needed. I have no issues.
Edit: Have you checked the thread to see if anyone else had that problem?
When all else fails, go extreme.
ODIN to stock, root, wipe, re-download the rom (bad download, did you check the MD5?), then flash again.
The rom is perfect... that I know.
Don't be afraid of going back to stock. very easy. check my signature if you need help.
ok my problem was solved now.. the first thing i did was to odin,then upgraded to 2.2 froyo using mini kies and rooted my phone. and flashed Trigger and works perfectly.. i guess it's Titanium Backup causing the errors. That's why i deleted my old Backups and started a new one..and rebooted my phone ,checked contacts if the error still shows but it was gone already ..
ps: sorry for my bad grammar
