[Q] no sound on toxic 8 rom

i recently download rom toxic 8 and i dont get any sound on my calls when i start to charge my phone and then i unplug the charger... i have to turn off the phone and turn it back on so it can start working...can somebody help me plz???
Need more information, such as what steps you took in flashing the ROM, what kernel you're using, etc. Also, have you already tried a clean install of Toxic8, or tried clearing the cache and dalvik cache and fixing permissions?

Resurrection remix ICS pro v1.1 charging vibration problem

When I connect the charger to my phone,my phone won't vibrate or ring,anyone here have same problem with me?
It's strange but you can try to reflash the rom and you must always wipe dalvik cache. i had this rom but it was perfect
I used 1.1 for a while, and I can't remember having this issue, or having read about people having it. So I agree with Ubbabubbah, reflash

[Q] Screen won't go off !!

Hi, I have a Galaxy S2 (I9100) that's on a stock rom GB 2.3.4
The kernel is KH3.
Phone works fine, but I cannot update to higher android version because KIES says my device cannot be updated with KIES.
After searching these forums I managed to root my phone (flash a rooted kernel with ODIN) and installed a custom rom.
I tried MIUI rom (JB) and also ParanoidAndroid (JB) and both have the same problem.
The screen shuts off after the 30 sec setting, but then after 1 sec it's ON again.
After 30 sec its shuts off, and after 1 sec it's ON again
If I flash a stock rom back (KH3) the everything is fine again.
Also flashed a MIUI ICS rom, which has the same problem!!
Anyone heard of this problem before, or knows what to do??
1. Did I do something wrong?
2. Is there a way to go to ICS stock rom (KIES or another way)?
Please help....
1. Flash a different kernel
2. Or go to Sammobile and download stock firmware, flash it with Odin.

Did you do full wipe before flashing a custom rom?

I did
- factory reset
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik
Then install rom
if custom rom - screen on after 1 sec.
if stock rom - screen normal
************************** UPDATE **************************
Flashed a stock kernel from SAMMOBILE (Latest ICS 4.04 for Netherlands) with ODIN
Same problem !!! Screen turns off after time out, 1 sec then turns on again..
I found that with this firmware an app called "Screen Off And Lock" was installed.
Does that mean that Samsung knows the problem occurs in ICS (and higher).
I checked the option with the delay especially for devices tjat turn screen on again after turn off,
but still the same problem stays.
******** ANOTHER UPDATE *********
Just found out....
Everything works OKAY if I connect the phone to my PC.
It's charging then offcourse, and the USB is connected then.
That must be a clue to the solution, but I haven't found it yet.
Maybe someone else has an idea now (I really hope so)

Maybe your usb port is f*cked like mine, Does it happen only when you fully charged the phone ? becuz my device recognize it as charging(when not having a charger connected), ---> so connecting/disconnecting every time . . My screen goes on/off cuz it connects/disconnects the charger (while no charger connected.) If this is your problem u can try cleaning usb port or check this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30290884&postcount=3619

I don't think this is the same as my problem, because in GingerBread everything is OKAY...
Thanx anyway.

Hard to say.
Could also be a hardware issue.
I recommend to flash back stock ROM with stock kernel.
Maybe you have to wipe data (do factory reset).
Then check again.
Good luck !

You've already done the extreme of reinstalling a stock ROM and performing a factory reset. I'm also assuming you didn't install a bunch of apps before the problem started, though.
My advice would be: go back to stock ROM again, factory reset, and SLOWLY reinstall your apps. This will help narrow down what app could be causing your issue. (if it is an app)
No bumping threads after 54 minutes. Not cool. People here aren't at your beck & call :-/

sorry for that ,but this site is my only hope
i tried ..i put the stock rom without any apps installed.but i had the same problems..by example when i want to delete a widget from the screen the phone stucks a few seconds,and the came to normal..the home button had the same delay and the proximity sensor works with the same delay,when i want to close a call ,stays a 5-10 seconds to light up the screen..i dont know,what is with him,i m disperate
..and what is strange,by example when is on charge ,the home delay dissapeared,works normally,but the rest of the problems remain
comeone..nobody knows anything about my problems with phone?
1.send it to Samsung for warranty.
2.get your money back from "friend".
I think i had similar problems with you previously, even worse maybe. Battery shows charging while cable is unplugged. Some of the time it pops up a warning message "Unstable Voltage". I did the same thing as you, flashing roms, wiping x " i forgot how many times", factory resetting X times and so on. What solved the problem for me was ;
-> i took out the battery
-> left phone untouched for several days
-> put the battery back -> charged till full
-> wipe data, factory reset, wipe battery stats, wipe cache,dalvik as well, FIX permissions
-> flash latest stock rom ( 4.0.4 at that time )
-> reboot phone
-> root again ( flashing stock rom loses root ) using CF-Root
-> reboot to CWM recovery
-> wipe data, factory reset, wipe cache,dalvik as well, FIX permissions
-> flash PA (Paranoidandroid ROM - please follow the instruction from OP post) via CWM
->wipe data, factory reset, wipe cache, FIX permissions
-> reboot phone
-> wait for apps updated and then reboot to recovery and FIX permission for the final time and VOILA!!
The phone works great up till this moment. Not sure if you gonna solve your issue with the way i did it but might worth the try. Nothing to lose anyway it seems as you were hardcore-ing flashing roms and wiping data and such. Good Luck!
Certainly that i hope this will be able to relieve you of the unnecessary distress.

i tried to do all things that you sayed to me,without to leave the phone with no battery several days..dand nothing happend,the problems persist ..i dont know ,i dont have a guarantee,and the cost may be high,thanks anyway
UP
Your friend clearly sold you a dodgy phone. You should demand your money back and use the phone to beat him until he pays. That is my diagnosis and clearly the answer to your "problem".
today after wipe everything and flash de jelly bam rom ,custom kernel etc..doesnt work at all,but i removed the battery for 30 minutes,and when i put it back and openned it ,everything works very well..just a calibrate,and clearly now have no problems..how long it mentain,i dont know,but even now i dont know what it had .. mistery
so,what are you thinking,what is the cause?

Phone not turning on at all

Hey guys,
Just installed CM 9.1 (stable version) last night and now my phone won't boot up at all.
This is what happened:
- Using omega rom at first, worked fine.
- Did a factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvick cache
- Installed CM 9.1
- Had problems with WiFi connection, could find my network and enter network password but it wouldn't connect
- Did a factory reset, etc.
- Re-installed CM 9.1
- Wifi issues still there, decided to fix them in the morning.
- Woke up this morning , phone was running fine for 3-4 hours.
- Went to grab my phone and its off
- Take out battery, try turn it back on. Nothing happens.
- Try charge it when I get home , thinking it might have run out of power. Still not booting up.
- Can't boot into recovery or download
Now I have no idea what to do, is my phone bricked as they say?
Much help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Ben

You require a service centre but as you may have to pay for the repair i would buy a USB Recovery Jig first to see if you can boot to download mode .

Hey bro,
Thanks for the reply. Alright I will have to look into getting a jig.
How much does the service centre normally charge?
Ben
$350 or around that
