Just now i decided to update froyo to gingerbread and dx is a very nice looking and fast rom. But the weird thing is that the screen will fades and eventually turn off by itself, the only way to get the screen to work again is to press lock button to lock then unlock. This issue doesnt get away after few reboots. Also chinese language in dx is not fully supported.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Should i try any other gingerbread rom?
This is how i install rom:
Wipe dalvik cache, wipe partition cache, fatory reset, flash rom, flash modules_fix, flash cmparts_fix, factory reset.
Is this correct?
Hi,
You can't use Autobrightness , go to :
-Settings
- Display settings
-Brightnesss
then UNCHECK Automatic brightness
now issue with fading screen should no to take place

I guess I don't have enough posts yet to post in the Starburst thread in Development, but I was wondering had anyone ever experienced their motion sensor dying, or at least the loss of the auto-rotation feature after flashing this rom?
I have re-flashed several times, but I have NOT done a full factory wipe and then flashed yet. Perhaps this is the next step.
When I go into settings > screen > horizontal calibration, the thing appears to be a dead stick (little ball doesn't move) and when you hit calibrate it sits there for a few minutes then screen goes black and it goes to my lock screen.
I am going to try a full factory wipe and then flash it back to stock, but has anyone ever encountered this before?
Thanks in advance.
P.S. - I've searched everywhere and can't find mention of anyone having this problem before.
Okay after restoring backup from ROM manager the rotation is working again, indicating it was an issue with my flashing most likely? I will try a full wipe and try again with Starburst.
So even with a complete wipe, even formatting data, system, etc. I cannot get rotation working in Starburst rom. Any clues? This is completely baffling.
I've searched around the forums and so far, most of the results were people having trouble with their phone getting stuck in recovery/boot/download mode.
My phone, however, is stuck in the call mode where the keypad takes up most of the screen. Everything else is working fine with the phone, as I can see unread text messages and other programs that running and notifying me of updates in the background. Wifi and data work fine as well.
The problem is, I can't get out of the call keypad mode and into my home screen with all my apps. I've tried restarting, turning it on/off, taking out the battery, and charging it via USB to the computer. Nothing is working! Please help :crying:
Clear data on phone & if that doesn't work maybe try a factory reset ?
Do the following steps below:
- Boot to CWM recovery
- wipe cache partition
- wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
- fix permissions (under advanced)
- reboot system now
This issue sounds familiar......like a launcher problem. I have 3 fixes:
Clear data of your launcher
or download another launcher, by trying to get to your play store app by universal search or from the playstore on the pc
if strangely none of the above works, flash another rom or reflash your rom if you like it that much
Note that this message should have been the 1st, cause if im right the two solutions you recieved above should work. The problem is if your running stock ics 4.0.4, you may end up with the emmc brick bug if you use recovery or do a factory reset. We dont know what your using since you never told us.
Hey guys!
Im a first time rooter but somehow managed to root my Dell, flash Streakmod on it and install the DSC 2.0 ROM and then upgrade it to 2.3.
My problem is that the moment I unlock the screen after rebooting the phone I get a wall of notifications telling me that googlewhateversystem stopped working along with other applications. It seems that somewhow the whole introduction part of the phone went to ****.
Help?
Did you do both resets for DSC, namely Option 1 from the main menu and the reset option in StreakMod?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes. I installed DSC and after that made a factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik etc... then I rebooted and did another factory reset on the dell standard recovery.
EDIT: I restored a backup and installed DSC again but this time I didnt do a factory reset and just wiped the cache. I managed to get on the phone but now I get constant notifications that android.phone has crashed. Any ideas?
EDIT2: I removed my sim card and restarted the phone. Everything works fine now. Seems like the Rom doesnt like my simcard. Well I guess I wont use it then. The keyboard is way to small anyway. I just wish that there would be a good ROM for me to use.
Pardon my english im from germany
It's odd that you're having such issues. I use DSC myself and have not had any problems using it. In fact, switching back to DSC solved a pair of annoyances that appear in the CM7 ROMs for the Streak: no camera zoom and the dialpad buttons being too small. If you're willing to put up with those annoyances, try using CM7 with _n0p_'s Phoenix kernel or one of the CM7 derivatives like Longhorn. Just be aware that other than DSC none of the Gingerbread ROMs are being actively maintained.
I honestly dont know what the problem is myself... I flashed it with ams and dps and then the recovery, installed the zip, wiped everything, fixed permissions and rebooted.
I tried this several times and everytime it has these crashes that make it unable to use the phone. Also after restoring my backup after the install the buttons on the bottom of the phones flash every minute or so.
Geez... why does it have to be so complicated xD?
EDIT: I decided to take a deep breath and try the whole procedure again. Flashed the phone, installed the zip, installed the update, wiped everything, rebooted, after the boot waited 10 mins and voila! It works like a charm!
If you Strephon now would be able to tell me how to change the keyboard to the default one then I'll gladly give you my thanks!
If you mean the Swype Keyboard...
Settings > Language & Keyboard. Make sure Swype is checked. Tap OK on any popups that appear and exit settings.
When you go to type something, e.g. a response to this post, press and hold the input area (the spot where you type). The menu that pops up should have an option labeled "Input Method". Tap on Input Method to change keyboards.
No I mean the standard big fat keyboard from the original Dell Streak 5 Rom. The DSC one is way to small for my fingers to type fast AND accurate.
The "big fat keyboard" is the Swype keyboard. The only other option is the default Android keyboard, with much smaller keys.
Hi guys, recently my S3 started to play up on me. The screen started to flicker and would only stop when I touched (and held) the screen. From then, things have gone from bad to worse and the phone now features a completely black screen after it is powered on. Therefore I cannot see the startup animation or anything else (including the home screen etc) but can hear the notifications and vibrations.
I can fortunately use CWM as this is not effected at all and the screen works perfectly fine. I have flashed 3 different roms and wiped my whole device since the problem started hoping it was a software problem.
I have additionaly tried:
- Clear the Dalvick Cache
- Clear cache
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Wipe all SD card data (don't ask)
Hopefully someone can help I would really appreciated it. (Not enjoying using the old Symbian phone atm) :crying:
Thanks
Make sure you are flashing roms meant for your version of the device.Try changing kernel or flash the latest stock firmware available after a factory reset. This should replace every file on your phone. Any problem would be fixed by this. Secondly what CWM do you use? Is it touch? If so does the touch work? Not likely a panel issue if the display is working in CWM, Can be a digitizer issue causing the screen to act up.
Whenever I try various CM 11 themes, sometimes system ui error screen appears and after that the screen starts to toggle between lock screen and the earlier screen.
There is no way I can access other things on phone even restarting the phone doesnt solve the issue ,I also tried clearing cache & delvik cache but its doesnt help
Does any one know any solution or workaround where I can atleast get a chance to change the theme
The only solution right now is to do a factory reset from recovery
