Noticed today that Dolphin Browser, which used to rotate when I rotated my phone, no longer does this. Running ADW LauncherEx and normally have that option turned off for the home screen. But to try it out, I turned the "Home Orientation" option to "Auto/sensor". It will not rotate either.
Not sure what to check or try out, so if anyone has any tips/advice, I'd be greatly appreciative.
Rooted 2.3.4 (from the SBF released recently).

Did u check ur phones display setting? There is one for auto rotate
Also do u have pulldown notification toggles? There is a toggle for screen rotation on that also. Make sure it is lit up.
Did u check through dolphins setting also?
U running a rom? If yes which one?
*smack forehead*
Yes, there is a setting for "Auto-rotate screen". And yes, it was not selected. Strange, don't recall setting that to off though..
But, thanks, it works now.

Since I rooted my notifications automatically set to silent whenever and i can no longer set the fonts. Anyone else? Any idea how to fix?

Turn the volume up and you can not use fonts with lag fix.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Volume isn't the issue. The phone will reset my notifications. I'll set a sound and a fwe hours later they are all set to silent. Only the ringer and alerts stick
Perhaps it's an app like Timeriffic that's causing it. Check your apps that could possible change the settings, if not, then you could always just make everything stock and do it over again.

Am I right??
I've been looking for an app that is supposed to keep the screen brightness at a certain level no matter what app is running that could change the brightness. I have googled and googled and all I can find are auto brightness apps. The app I am thinking that I say my have been a script that runs in the background. My wifes eris keeps shooting the brightness to max all the time. Thanks!
You do know that the brightness slider can be set to a certain llevel.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
Umm yes I do. My wife has an Eris rooted running exactly the same rom as mine and no matter what you set the brightness slider to, 5 minutes later, wake the phone up and poof brightness is at max. So my question again is that if anyone knows the app or script in question, your help would be greatly appreciated.
I second this, my phone does the same thing

Not so sure about that. Mine did it once or twice when still running the OTA 2.1... made me change the screen brightness from Auto to about 30~40%. Since running xtrSENSE 4.6.5 I haven't seen any problems with the screen brightness resetting to max. There are times when the auto brightness seems befuddled and selects a strangely dark setting, but it quickly settles down and works fine.
My money is on an ill-behaved app. What diff apps do you and your wife run?

The apps that she has that I don't are:
Bubbles
Connect4
eBay
FxCamera
Shazam
Sketcher
Maybe the camera app? I'll uninstall it and see.
I'm thinking the camera app. In the xtrSENSE thread, somebody mentioned a problem with a camera, so it's the likely culprit. Good luck.

Once again did you flash a new rom. I ran nonsensikal and kaosfroyo for over a year and a half. Not once did they act up. So either reflash your xtrasense or something else. So either you have a bug in one of your apps as others have stated or something is wrong with the ROM.
What I did was used an app called abrightness and went into settings and unchecked automatic adjust for brightness.
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
The culprit ended up being the FxCamera app. Uninstalled it and no brightness issues. Oh, and "whining" and asking a valid question in the QUESTIONS forum are two completely different things. Thanks to anyone who actually offered constructive comments.

Ok so ive someone else post about this before just canteen remember if it was on another forums or not.
Ok so earlier today i was messaging someone and i was trying to get out the message screen but my phone was taking too long or i was just impatient but anyway i kept hitting the home button then i hit the back button and all of a sudden i heard a shutter sound. Sooooo i went into my gallery and there it was a seperate folder just for "screenshots" and mind you i do have the shoot me app and the folder for that is "shoot me". Has anyone else ever experienced this? I thought it was so cool that there is/was a built in screenshot but just wish i knew how to do it again i was so excited!!

I posted this same question in the axura beauty thread. I thought it was a special addition to the axura rom. I found out that its not a rom special but its actually an android feature, only problem I haven't got an actual answer on how to access this feature nor do I know what to look for. I have googled this several times and all I get are results telling me about drocap or shootme and how to use the ddms in order to screenshot without root.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I know for a fact how to do this. I don't think you can force a screenshot with any soft touch keys but you'll notice the screenshot goes off when you're exiting an app/browser and the system freezes up briefly and when you try to hit home on the frozen screen it takes the screenshot. It's happened to me on a few occasions and I distinctly told myself to remember what was happening when the screenshot goes off and turns out it always goes off when my screen is frozen and I hit my home key, while thinking my back button wasn't registered and in fact, was registered and I just got impatient and hit my home button.
I've got a feeling it's a bug log kind of thing. Every post I've seen about it mentions that the phone locked up, and the user pressed buttons rapidly. Sure, we can take Screenshots! You have to have a crashing app to do it though.
This topic has been covered soooo many times not only here on XDA but google.

If you have a vibrant running stock froyo.ka6 you can try this screen capture app from the market:

Hmmmm it seems like StevenJCarney might be correct. Like he said it seems like it happens when peoples phones lock up & it could be a bug.
Hope it isnt a bug & someone is able to figure it out.
Same exact thing here. It really sucks an app has to crash to use it.

If you have a rooted phone you can just use an app called screenshot which works perfectly. And it's free.

There is an extremely annoying sound/notification that plays sometimes when I unlock the lock screen. I've looked in the settings and can not seem to find anything to turn this off. Anyone point me in the right direction here?

Yep, I've tried turning it on and restarting the phone. Then turning it back off and restarting. Also did those steps and pulled the battery. Got frustrated and just reset the phone and still no change. It's weird too because if I simply flick to unlock the screen it doesn't play the sound as often. If I take my time and slide the unlock screen and slowly release the touch then it almost always makes the sound.
Guess I can just live with it till I can through another ROM on it. Probably just an isolated issue within my Sense.

Sorry to bump this up but it's seriously annoying and I'd rather not take the phone in for exchange.
Has anyone else had this issue or anything even remotely like it? Any other suggestions, etc? I appreciate any help offerings in advance.
The only help I can offer is disabling the Lockscreen all together. At least until we get full root and you can just flash a ROM or figure out what the problem is. Screen Mode Widget (free in the market) will do that

Has anyone figured this out? It's extremely annoying. It happens every time I unlock the phone.
The lock screen sound setting someone else mentioned in this thread is an additional little beep that gets added on if you have the sound option checked. This noise is completely different and plays regardless of whether or not you have the option checked, or whether or not you have a lockscreen pattern.

over six months since your OP and you still haven't fixed this?
have you rooted? tried different ROMs? If your going to bump this topic at least update everyone on what you've tried.
Have you tried to delete the lock sound sound from system/media?
I have an issue with the gingerbread keyboard on Checkrom V4. Whenever I'm typing, if I press the "I" key it will insert the last full word I typed about 3/4 of the time. Sometimes I can delete the word and type an "I" ok, sometimes it will keep inserting it over and over. It only does it on CheckROM and only on the gingerbread keyboard I download from the kitchen. Anybody got any ideas why it does this or how to fix it?
TIA.
Edit: Guess I should've mentioned that it only does this when typing I by itself. It works fine if the I is in a word. Also, this is the 3rd time I've used checkrom and had this issue, with cm7, cm9, and several other ROMs flashed in between.
Sooo, any suggestions? I know this isn't a big problem but it is hella annoying.

I've actually tried that and it stopped my problem but it also turns off all other auto correct. I have no idea what's causing this but it drives me nuts just cause I can't figure it out. It also only does it on checkrom but other samsung-derived roms are fine.

I went ahead and tried uninstalling and reinstalling again, but it didn't help. I have tried most of the other popular keyboards and I just really like the gingerbread keyboard. I know I'm being kinda picky here and maybe it's something I'm doing, but it's bugging me more just because I can't figure it out.
