Hi all,
Im a new user here to please bear with me if I accidentally broke some rules.
To start off, Im a new ROM Flasher and my S2 is currently using the wanamlite v.12 blue ics with speedmod k3-20.
My simple problem is, I noticed that there is no infinite scroll in my wanamlite Home Screen. I am unable to scroll from screen 1 to screen 7 or vice versa. I need to swipe all the screen first before getting to the last screen which is kinda annoying.
I tried searching in the forum and got to this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436817&page=619
Unfortunately, I cant still post since this account is newly created.
PS: I dont really like using alternative homescreen like nova or apex.. I would like to keep my wanamlite stock screen.
Can you help a lil newbie here? Also what modem is good for signal + battery saving?
When on the home screen, press the menu button (opposite the back button) and see if there are any options for Launcher Settings. If there is, go to it and see if there are any options for the Home screen. Infinite scrolling should be there.

Add
Wallpaper
Search
Notifications
Edit
Settings
All of the choices does not have the infamous infinite scrolling.. thanks for the help though

LP9 modem is good, as is BULP6, KI3, and KI4. Personally, I use the LP9 modem.

i've searched and could not find...so basically what the title is....
is there anyway to make the home button the unlock button???
as i think the power button is almost as awkward as my atrix unlock button. just curious....i'm still running a stock rom..so i'm guessing if this option was available it would have to be in a custom rom...maybe cm7 as that has a lot of different options.
anyhow just a question.
Kind Regards
Matt
sorry i've been a spoon. i've asked the question, but not actually tried it! whoops. mod can close this!!!! my bad!!! i usually am more observant than this i swear!!! :S
Hi I'm running Villainrom 3.0.0 and if i hit home, wait until lockscreen appears then hit home again, it unlocks.
I'm sure this is not an added mod as VR is as close to stock as possible.
That could be useful but for the moment im going to be staying stock. My past android phones have always been better away front stock. But i do like this.

I moved from Stock 2.3.4 samsung rom to Cyanogenmod 7 (stable).
I have one problem though, I cant seem to disable the keylights of the two buttons, one on either side of the home button. It is annoying as hell when I use my phone in a dark room.
Can anyone help me?
No one knows?
PS.
I think I am gonna move to MIUI ROM, this still has many bugs ... Get a lot of FC on random apps.
Is there not an option in CM7? On stock its in Settings>Display>Touch key light duration.

Nope, I looked for it 1st. Could not find it.

there is an app called "Screen filter" it's ad free and free - it is exactly what you are looking for, and it operates via a widget... you can put a dark filter on your screen to make the screen very dark, and you have the option to disable the button back lights too... you can create several widgets with whatever level of darkness you desire... I couldn't use my phone at night without it!!
You glorious bastard! I've been searching all over for a solution to this problem!
Accept my deepest thanks.
The search and back buttons don't work at all. The home button performs as the back button, and the menu button is fine.
I've tried many different rooms as well as kernels. I've also used klies to go back to factory default. Nothing helps. Any ideas?

Your sig says you have a Nexus, and the GT-I9100 doesn't actually have a dedicated search button. So my guess is you flashed an I9100 firmware to a different model phone. Check the label under your battery, what does it say for model?
Its a friend's phone. He has it right now and I can't remember what the model says underneath but the boot screen says GT-i9100.
Its an AT&T Galaxy S II

AT&T Galaxy S II is NOT I9100. It's SGH-I777. Boot screen changed because wrong firmware was flashed. Flash an I777 firmware (go to the AT&T Galaxy SII section to get one) and it will all be fixed.
I see, I'll give it a try. Thank you!

Make sure you get an I777 firmware.

Homescreens
Fix: If you have custom rom or kernel in accordance with an custom home launcher and lock screen, make sure you dont set a lock screen pin or pattern in the standard stock settings under Locations and security. If you do, your phone will not be able to recognize either the stock Launcher or your custom launcher as the default launcher thus not being able to link the capacitive home button to either, rendering it useless and unusable after reboot.
I had this problem today and realized that my screen kept flashing to the stock lock screen when i unlocked my screen from Go Locker so i went into Locations and Settings and disabled my pin there. This fixed my (Samsung Exhibit 2's) apparently broken capacitive Home and Search buttons :laugh: Hope that helps, and if you couldn't follow it, sorry

Your problem had absolutely nothing to do with his problem. Try reading the thread again. Plus, the thread was over a month old.
Flawd did you find a solution? Ive similar problem probably because i left the phone on charger overnight

Read the thread again, dude. You DON'T have the same problem. I read your other thread. You (apparently) have an i9100. He did not; either he or his friend flashed an i9100 firmware to an i777 phone. The solution for him (flashing an i777 firmware) will not work for you if you, in fact, have an i9100.
@ctomgee!
Thanks for the alert. And i understand his phone is a different phone and i shouldnot flash a non i9100 firmware which was advised to him. Thats why i asked him whether his problem was solved at all. He hasn't mentioned success/no-success so far. I am not an android user at fetus stage.
And i edited my post. I should have used the word "similar" instead of "same". I am quite frustrated these days.
see ya

Right; I was telling you that his problem was caused because he (or whoever) flashed an i9100 firmware to an i777. That root cause means any solution he found (which was probably to flash an i777 firmware instead of an i9100 firmware) will not be valid for your situation, since you have an i9100, and not an i777.
My Galaxy S2 screen starts to look like photo negative occasionally. It would be mostly black. This gets resolved after a reboot. Has anyone faced this issue before?
I am on VK ROM 5.1.2 with siyah 3.3.2.
With the Siyah kernel pressing the home button 4 times inverts the screen colours.

Thanks. I just couldn't imagine it could be a feature...

Thank you.
Initially, I thought there was some hardware issue with my screen and thought of taking it the service center after reverting back to stock ICS ROM.
If you use recent builds of Siyah, you can turn this feature off in ExTweaks.
I love you all. I fell like a f***n' noob.
Thanks
Thank you. Felt the same! (like a n**b)! Saved me a reboot the second time!
As far as I remember this is for night reading.

Post in the correct forum for your device I.E N8000 Q&A :-/
even i am facing the same problem...the screen looks so dull when compared to earlier stages...is it with the LED display ??
Hello S2 users,
I got my SGS2 just a few days ago. From start, I am experiencing a strange thing.
If I multitap the home button(2-3 times), Each and every colour on the screen inverts.
First, I thought it was some sort of bug in stock ROM, but today when I flashed Custom AOKP ROM, it happened there too.
I tried it on the bootanimation screen and even the bootanimation colours got inverted.
I am using Siyah Kernel.
Please tell if its normal or do I need to replace my device.
P/S: Sorry if this type of thread is already here. I could not find it.
Thanks in Advance.
I noticed that 2 on RR and some other roms but on CM10 nothing
Its nothing dangerous i can say.
It's Syhian kernel future
If you press 4 times home button and then be Negative mode
If you'd read the either of the Siyah threads/bothered to learn about Siyah before you started using it you'd know Siyah has inverted screen colours as a feature.
You can turn it off in ExTweaks (on the 'screen' tab).

It is normal. It is a feature (MDNie effect) of Siyah kernel which can be toggled on /off by pressing the home button 4 times.
It mod was made so as to invert white pages while browsing, in order to save more battery.
Thanks All,
I did read Siyah kernel's Features and all but seems I somehow missed a point or two.
Sorry for a new thread about nothing.
