On stock ics. If screen turns on while charging it does not turn off again. This started happening some weeks ago, but I can't imagine I did anything.
Any clues?

Yes! What is the problem? Just a setting in EC or uninstallation required?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Here's the deal:
The "keep awake"option is part of the stock ics settings but Samsung has removed it, possibly to avoid burn-in effects on the s2's SAMOLED screen. But apparently all they removed was just the option...the"stay awake"functionality is still there, you just don't have a way to enable or disable it.
This means that if you install an app that for whatever reason decides to turn "stay awake" to "on" you have no way to disable it -unless you install a third party app that does exactly that!
Enter extended controls. While I'm almost sure it was THAT update that caused the stay awake setting to change we are in luck because it's the same app that will let us disable it:
On an empty area of your screen long press and add an 1x1 extended control widget. Add the "stay awake" toggle and apply. when the widget appears I'm pretty sure it's gonna be enabled/green.
Click on the widget to disable stay awake and then remove the widget if you want. Done.
Let me know how it works out!

Hello,
Is there a way to desactivate hardware leds ?
I'm using wolfbreak's mod and i thought there were a patch in order to save my eyes.

make sure the app is on, you can tell this, because it will always be in the notification bar, and ensure the box at the bottom is deselected
Sent from my X10 using XDA Premium App
also make sure the checkbox for the "enable screen filter" is unticked.
i had problems with the app and by the time i got it working, all my rom flashing somehow disables my HW leds for good. And since a reboot does nothing, im enjoying a life without those HW leds.
How do I avoid this? Happens once a day on all roms.

If you are on stock and not using screen off underclock profiles in setcpu, time for an exchange.
If you want to underclock with setcpu, you need a custom kernel with a fix.
If you are undervolting, you need to learn to read the documentation for the kernel you are using.

Weird. I've been using Widgetlocker for months with no issues .
Ditto. Been using WidgetLocker on UnNamed 2.2.1 for at least 2 months with no issues.
This just happened to me last night, twice. Woke up around 3am, phone was off. Thought nothing of it as my battery was at 20% around 8pm. Plugged it in, turned it on and went back to sleep. Wake up at 8:10 (supposed to be at work at 8!) and phone was off. Hit the power and it showed the phone off battery full screen. I don't have any other lock besides the stock. Been running ICS'd Out since 12/20 with no issues like this. Haven't modified the phone at all for the past 2 weeks (last was update to 1/2 DD) exept for installing current widget. Has anyone had any issues with current widget causing this? Or is there possibly a way to tell why(how) the phone was shut off?
How do u get it to update location? I have enable location checked I have refreshed and everything I could think of and it still showing the location where I bought and activated the phone.

Honestly I looked into a few of those recommendations but I chose Tasker with the plug in Secure Settings.
Now I can choose to wake up my screen on any notification for a defined amount of time before it turns off automatically.
Tasker is a very powerful system app. So if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's a paid app ($6.95) but very worth it. If your skeptical go to the developer's website for a trial.

Forgive me if this was already posted but I was playing around in the task manager and went to default tab and cleared the setting. After you do that go to your notification drop down and select setting and it will ask which settings program you want to use. Choose the one without the folder behind it.

I believe if you go into settings and hit the menu button, you will have the option to switch into list view. Also, there are two "settings" in your app drawer. One is for the tabs, one is for list.
