Before I go rooting & maybe flashing my phone is there something wrong with it. I've been reading a while & see it may be a bad phone or its the auto brightness being on. I compare it to my captivate & its not as vibrant. Like when I open this app its brown instead of the tan on my cappy. I see I can change the display settings on a few of these roms like unnamed, will that fix it? Also I did the ota update to 2.3.6 before I realized I shouldn't. Guess I can't just root it anymore huh?

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.

Weren't you the one that posted the "How to fix SETCPU death" thread? You posted pretty much the same thing and said you had fixed it??

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

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

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.

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

Have you tried a different ROM? I had two Eris before my D2 and never had that issue.

Dude, I'm sure your D2 rocks and whatnot, but seriously I would like a reply that is constructive.

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.

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.
Problem Solved,
Thread Closed
Hi,
I am wanting to know how I can get hold of the closing bootanimation I have managed to get on my SGS2. Basically its like a tv screen when you switch it off, it closes down into a line just like the old tv's used to. I think it must be when I upgraded to the KE7 kernal or firmware but I just want to know if its possible to manually install it on a desire?
Ta.
its known as the crt off effect, i think you can install it manually, search in google or in xda for crt off effect
why
Why are you digging up old threads?

Is there a simple way to enable this? All the options I have seen seem to include other modifications too via replacing a framework file.
Do Samsung block it on the phone or do they take it out alltogether. I understand the reason is because of poor performance on occasion but it has always been fine on my phone...
Any ideas?

Have you seen this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152668
I don't think you'll find an easier way.
Kinda funny, because I disabled it on Cognition ROM. You can have mine.
Thanks I hadn't seen that one. Will give it a try once the 2.3.4 update goes official (unless anyone fancies doing a KG6 version...)
Brought back memories reading about how all the processes come crashing down when you change the file while the phone is running... oops...

I can't help you on that specific issue, but I may be able to offer a work around. I've had trouble with the light levels on my SGS3 and using Lux has completely resolved it. Not only does it have pretty good automatic settings, but it allows you to assign specific light levels based on the ambient lighting level.
There's an app called display brightness that also gives you that option with a slider you could put anywhere you want
Thanks I will try each and see which I like.
