Can't change Settings Problem - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I have a pretty big problem and i've been trying to solve it for the past 2 days. Everything was running fine but then i noticed that when i wanted to turn auto rotation back it didn't allow me. I clicked on it but it didn't work so i rebooted it and then it worked. If i wanted to switch it off i had to reboot the phone again. This also happens with everything else. Like for example also when I wanted to switch 3g off it didn't work. It's like i turn it off and it turns back on by itself and I have to reboot my phone just for it to work. I did factory wipe + install clean official rom and now im on epsilonproject-ics. I was using Foxhound ics v2 before. Can anyone help? Thank you.

[Q] Auto reboot

Dear all
Since last week, my s2 reboots automatically And randomly.
I thought it was a rom problem, so i changed from leomar to litening 6.1
however, the problem still exists. I am using speedmod t27.
Have anyone experienced this problem? Is there any way to solve?
Flash back to a stock rom and test if it still does it.
Remove your SD card if you have one and test it.
Edit : I am doing the same thing currently with my SGS2.
I am not sure wether it is a problem of XXKH3
coz there was no auto reboot before i flashed xxKH3 roms
but for sure i will give stock rom a try
let me see the if it works
thx
Mine did the same
Got it replaced - no more reboots
Auto reboot
Hi All
Since the last two/three nights at around 22.00 UK, my SII reboots itself.
I thought they were auto updates, but nothing changed.
No download, no updates. The auto updates options are off.
I use the stock rom, 2.3.4 XWK14
Any ideas of what could happen?
Thanks

[Q] Locked of of Settings Menu..pls help

Hello Everyone.
Im having a bit of a problem. Im running the unoffifial beta 2v4 the latest one by flapjaxx. The rom to me in my opinion was running fine until i downloaded all the inverted app for this rom throu the update tools function. I was pretty happy with my choice of rom i loved it. The problem began when my phone started to jam up when looking at my inverted contacts menu, the phone would give me a quick hiptic vibrate and then restart my apex launcher..So long sory short I factory reset the phone and now i can get into the settings menu. Phone states App not installed. i wiped the cach clean and did 3 factory resets btw and It still wont let me into the Settings..The phone now says settings is blocked for security reasons.. what the heck did I do wrong

you can try titanium backup..see if settings is in there and restore it(at your own risk, but its worth a shot), OR start from scratch and re-flash ROM. (do a back up of course!!!
good luck!!!

TF201 - WIFI is disabled on a specific ROM

Hi
I tried to read all the posts about wifi problems..didn't find a solution to my problem though.
I really want to install CyanogenMod 10 Unofficial - JRO03L ROM by Craig Gomez : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803557
after flashing and rebooting, the wifi button remains gray and cannot be moved sideways
that happens with CM10 nightlies ROMs to
When I flashed EOS3 ROM, the wifi was OK
any help would be appreciated...
Thanks

sorry if I'm nagging..it's just driving me crazy
no matter what I do, I can't get jellybean to work correctly on my prime
my prime is new, got it for my B-day 2 weeks ago
things I did so far:
1- unlocked with asus utility
2- got rooted (DebugfsRoot_Generic_v2.3)
3- flashed CWM v5.8.2.0
4- did nvflash successfully
5- changed CWM to TWRP v2.2.2.0
6- tried to flash cm10 over eos3 (only wiped cache and dalvik)
Nothing worked so far
on EOS3 I get wifi with no problem but I can't use the camera. every camera app I install is FC on me because it can't access the camera
on CM10 / Baked / Jellybro, the wifi button stays gray and there is a message on the screen "turning wifi on" and it stays like this
no problems with Android 4.0.3 Roms though
so you guys have any tips for me maybe? do you think replacing the kernel is a good idea?

[Q] Vibration Not Working

Last night my phone grew legs and ran all the way across the room while i was sleeping. When i woke up, after searching for my phone for 10 minutes, the vibration no longer works. I didnt know if it was a software or hardware problem. So, I flashed a backup from the day before (where vibration was working) and still no luck. So i flashed back to my current backup, when i rebooted, right before the bootanimation, it vibrates. Odd? It works when the phone is booting up, but not when the phone is booted. I'm running houstonn's Vanilla RootBox (4-20 v1) with houcha kernel. All help is appreciated!

Thanks for everyones help...
I was able to fix this, and find the root of the problem (for me atleast). Everytime i click the Dark RootBox, vibration stops working. To fix, you must wipe the device completely, and reflash the rom.

[Q] CM10 Worked for weeks, now refuses to boot

I installed CM10.1 Jellybean 4.2.2 using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43326042&postcount=123, and for a couple of weeks it worked perfectly. I used CWM to install cm10 and gapps, everything went smooth. Yesterday I was on Youtube on my tablet, and the video and audio kept stuttering and freezing up, so I rebooted. After that, whenever I press power it either A: boots to the boot animation and won't continue further, or B: does absolutely nothing. I can restore to a backup I made and it will work perfectly until I reboot, where the issue above happens. I can also boot to an sd card I have made with Jellybean 4.1, and that seems to work well. I also tried resetting to factory and then completely reinstalling cm10.1, and the same thing occurs. Now I'm actually having problems booting in general. I've tried plugging into the power cord etc, but it just does not want to boot. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?
