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'm not sure if this is an ADW launcher thing or something with the rom, but I just did a full wipe on Sunday because of a reboot issue when using the gps on GSB 3.5 and I decided to install Condemned V10 Stripped and give it a shot.
So far so good, I'm really liking the rom, but my phone doesn't go to sleep unless I hit the End button and cut off the tv screen. Is that the expected behavior with ADW (or this rom), or a glitch? Has anyone else experienced this? Under the Settings menu, it is set to sleep after 1 minute, but the screen just dims some, doesn't go totally dark.
Thanks.
Nope - I'm not experiencing it at all and I've been on this ROM for a week now, after switching from the odexed GSB V3.5. Mine is timing out & going to the blank screen after a minute - don't see ADW being a problem either as I've used it with other Eris ROM.
You did do a full SD card reformat, delete the android folder with USB enabled in recovery mode, and did cache/dalvik wipe, etc. flashing this ROM & also reflashed Gapps (I used the March 2011 GB version.)
Have you look at your CM settings? Auto Brightest On or Off?
Perhaps you want to reflash CM Rom again (just do a cache/dalvik wipe only) to see if it will help.
Auto Brightness is set to On. I didn't do a full wipe of the SD card, just the phone. I can try a dalvik wipe/reflash tonight to see if that helps before wiping the sd card and the android folder.
Thanks.

Try checking in Settings>CM Settings>Lockscreen>Timeout and delay and make sure they aren't set to a long period of time. Maybe also try out of curiosity if that doesn't help... Turn off the screen of animation in CM Settings as well. Maybe that's causing a hiccup or something. I've never had a problem with the phone not going to sleep.
Thanks for the tips, guys. I reblasted with V10 (decided to do full version instead of stripped) after a dalvik wipe, and everything went well. Phone goes to sleep fine now, except for text messages from work during the night (which unfortunately isn't something that will ever totally go away while I work in IT).

- Great, sounds (looking) good then.
Just in case you haven't set it - for late night beeps & flashing LED, go to Settings > CM >Sound - - - set "Enable quiet hours" to mute so that no sounds will be played, disable vibrations & dim LED brightness. That should help during regular periods of DND (do not disturb) as it is for me w. multiple mail accounts merged & pulled by Google mail - then pushed. Pop3 mail not a problem - don't get or use SMS much on mine so it's not an issue & I don't enable my twitter feeds unless I need to.
(LOL, if I can only "teach" my alpha-numeric pager to do the same, I would not jumping out of bed at 4 am or what not but that's a different story in & of itself.)
Off topic: just in case, CS is reading the post again, this latest vanilla/full ROM is really rocking & rolling - I haven't seen a repeat of the phone not charging - out on assignment Tuesday evening & had NAV-Car Mode on for 2 hours and no FC, etc. Low-power USB charging/generic mini-usb cable and/or home charger (generic/Moto, etc.) putting out only 500 or 600 maH while plugged in seemed to be the culprit in failing to even trickle charge the Eris & draining it fast. It's getting kind of quiet & no news or bugs popping up lately over at the main thread in the developer's subforum .... Overall, it's a job well done - thanks !!

Glad everything is straightened out now
Thanks for the feedback on v10 as well. I'm testing 11 as we speak. So far so good. Should be posting it later tonight

Hey - I recently downloaded Das BAMF 3.0 RC3 with Imo's leanKernel on Extreme, and everything seemed to be running smoothly (at one point my touch screen did not respond, but a battery pull fixed that, ha). Just recently my app animations (for example, when I go to the app drawer, the apps 'fly' in and then 'fly' away when I close them) is VERY laggy, and they were not before. I did not update or change anything... I am using LauncherPro and WidgetLocker, but always have been. I have been trying to change settings around but no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions or know how to fix this? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
EDIT: And scrolling them the apps is very fast - it is just them flying in and out. Very strange...
EDIT 2: A completely other problem I am having - when I try to reboot, it doesn't reboot, it just shuts off. Is this a serious problem or something small that can fix it, or is this a known issue with the ROM that I will have to deal with until they fix?
My Thunderbolt is rooted, and I have tried several different ROMs (some AOSP even) and different kernels, and still I get this strange problem... I use WidgetLocker and fairly often when I go to unlock my phone, the touch screen doesn't work. I have to turn the screen on and off several times and sometimes that works, but it may take up to several minutes for it to finally register my touch. I even sometimes have to pull the battery because after ten minutes, nothing is responding. At first, I thought it the ROM/kernel - I used BAMF in the beginning and that is when I noticed it. Then I switched to ShiftSense, and I barely noticed the touch screen ever failing on me, but the lack of GPS locking and accuracy made me switch to NonSense, which I enjoy but again the touch screen not working at the WidgetLocker lock screen comes up again. My other theory was maybe the HTC Ring Lock Screen gets in the way, so I downloaded NoLock and disabled it, but that didn't work. Then I tried use the WL HomeHelper, but that didn't work... I tried different settings, but no avail. I really enjoy WidgetLocker and I want to try to keep it, but I am not sure what other things I should try to fix this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!
widget locker did that to me several times so I gave up on it. Its definitely a problem with widget locker and not your phone or ROM. It freezes. I even set it to unlock with long press of back button and that would freeze as well.
my phone does the same thing, i think its a problem with our phone and gingerbread. it happens less with froyo. I believe its a radio issue.

I have used widget locker on over 10 different android devices I've own. I've never had a freeze issue with it. Reason I've had freeze issue starting with low RAM device. Then voltage to low or cpu frequency to low.
Is there a good alternative with Widget Locker? I just love the use of my own custom slider/widgets/custom background... Does any other app do that? I sort of want to try another app and test to see if it is in fact my phone/RAM/ROM/whatever or Widget Locker.

take off or freeze widget locker for a few days and see how your phone does. If it doesn't freeze, then you know its the app.
As for the guy that has used widget locker on 10 devices without problems, I call BS, I tried it on stock, and several customs and always had problems.
I sort of like the features of WidgetLocker than my default lock screen doesn't have and the look of it, so if I turn it off, I sort of want to try to find a replacement app in the meantime.
I just wanted to chime in and say I have this issue with my Thunderbolt and Widgetlocker as well. I've found that it usually freezes if I let my screen turn off by timing out. I'll turn it back on and the screen doesn't respond at all. I've found that if I let my screen timeout again while on the Widgetlocker screen, my touch screen will be responsive the next time I turn it on again.

Same problem here, I stopped using widget locker and just use the sense 3 lockscreen now.
I just wanted to put in my two cents - I was have the same problems with WidgetLocker on BAMF Forever (1.0.7 & 1.0.9). I found another thread on here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151269) that someone with a BAMF Sense 3 ROM and a custom kernel was having the same issue. Someone else suggested upping the voltage on the kernel to 368 or changing the kernel. It didn't work for him, but it did for me. I'm not using a custom kernel, but there is an option to change that in BAMF Settings. I've been running it at 368 for several days now and I only had one lockup (but that was shortly after bootup and the phone was probably busy doing other things in the background). HTH
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 ;-)

I have chinese copy of Nexus One phone, android 2.2.1 and I don`t have VIBRATION SETTINGS tab in my menu, I can only turn vibrate on and off,
and I don`t have SOUNDS on SETINGS, I enter in AUDIO PROFILES to menage vibration,
how to turn off vibration on power on and off?
I've just updated to 3.6 from 3.5 - the issue has been in both. I also just flashed Siyah 1.6 but not sure if that would affect it anyway - I'm thinking not.
I like to have my call volume start soft and increase slowly. I'm often in a quiet environment and will hear the call as soon as it rings - having it loud to allow for times I am in the open/crowds scares the bejeesus out of me when I am sitting quietly. As far as I know I lost it when I moved to Wanam but it may have been earlier - I flashed Revolution at one point with Superwipe & I can't recall having the facility since then.. I have been learning which involved flashing lots of different ROMs to find differences/techniques etc.
Any advice on how to get it back would be appreciated.
Hm, I jusgt tried going back to a Stock ROM and it doesn't have the increasing volume option either. Maybe I'm dreaming/confusing it with the function on the Alarm clock I downloaded?
Or perhaps it was a mod in a ROM I tried earlier...
Anyone know of a way to do this? Preferably with a dialler that replaces the normal rather than one which adds an extra on to the current set up.
