I Appologize if this has been answered. I am running into a odd problem
Just tried flashing 1.7rc1 on my S3 i9300, Installation went perfect, however upon reboot half way through the boot animation all white turned black, and the phone went very dark. As if it did not have the ability to produce the color white or something along those lines. Even with brightness at max I could barley make anything. out All yellows were replaced with an odd redish color and the only color i could see was blue.
Thankfully I was able to flash back to 1.6.8, which resolved the problem.
Tried re-downloading and reflashing 1.7rc1 with no luck.
Running Omega v28 Rom.
Anyone else experiance a problem like this, and if so find a solution? or am I just lucky!
I honestly have not tried v1.7rc1 but i believe that rc may have a bug, after all.. it's still a release candidate and it is still unstable

I only have a few days worth of rooting exp and I have flashed Omega v28 and haven't encountered any bugs at all. The one or two issues I had were down to my lack of experience.
If you have had genuine issues you would be best served to raise them with the dev to find solutions to the problem, not slate all their hard work with no substance to what you are saying!

Do you mean randomly some time after plugging in the charger, but not the 100% notification?
Screen turns on when a charger is plugged in, and also at 100%. A custom ROM can fix the 100% notification.
randomly, comes on about 1-2 minutes after plugging in
i don't have the answer, but i think we're talking about powering the phone off then charging. it's supposed to just show a battery pic but is powering back on. it might be the kernel you're using. that's what people said it was when i tried Sprint's version. mine didn't power back on with this model, but i haven't tried it lately.
using Zedomax stock kernal,phone is off ,plug in to charge normall battery pic will appear after a minute or so it will boot up on it's own
Ghost in the Shell...
Can't help but sure sounds strange... Have you tried to reflash and see if the problem persists?

Make sure that the rom you are using is one which is designed for the SGS i777 phone.
It might even be a good idea to re-download the rom just incase the first download
some how got corrupted during downloading.
Do a clean fresh "wipe data/factory reset" and re-flash the rom but don't flash any custom
kernels and don't install any apps at all until you have had enough time to see if the
problem still persists.
Flashing roms like any of the i9100 rom or any other rom which was not
intended for our phones can cause unexpected and random issues.
Good Luck!
I have the same problem. I turned off the phone to charge up, a min later, the phone automatically turns on by itself. I rooted it with Zedomax kernel (SGH-I777-ATTGalaxyS2RootStockZedomaxKernel) before. Could this be the cause? Any other users have the same problem?

Not true. There are minor differences between i777 ROMs and GT9100 ROMs. The main differences are the radio, kernel, and button mapping; which have all been fixed with Hellraiser and HapticFix.

My phone does the same thing. I don't consider it to be a problem because my phone is rarely ever turned off. I wouldn't be too concerned about it. If it bothers you enough, you could always do a warranty exchange. Personally, I'd rather live with a minor annoyance, than have AT&T send me a refurbished replacement.

You can try out nomoarpowah app. It replaces the battery charging 'off' screen with one that has reboot controls and shows the time.
It might be able to stop the phone from booting itself. Not to mention it's really cool and will only work on Samsung phones.

Try Entrophy's kernel to see if it does the same. Screen off charging is controlled by the kernel from what I'm told. When I was running MIUI it use to do that until they added the function in the kernel.
EDIT:
I just decided to try it since I never charge that way....lol and mine did it as well.
ah well.... I think this may be an issue.

Well if it's any consolation my phone is doing it too. I guess I never left it off long enough. Starts right up after a minute or so.
But once this issue gets figured out I'm sure you'll really like the app. It's good to turn off the phone every once and awhile. And with it you can set it to boot the phone when it's done charging or at a specific time.

I'm also having this problem. Is it hardware? I have the latest unnamed rom. Phone won't stay off no matter what...I've tried pulling the battery and everything.

i am having the same issue, using a zedomax kernel, if anyone has a solution i would like to hear it, i like to be able to shut the phone off when charging it some times, it seems to charge faster when its off
This is a known issue with my kernel's 11/23 release, and ONLY that release for my kernel, it was a result of adding support for the Interactive governor.
I have no clue what the results might be for Zedo's kernel - he released one kernel, lots of people had problems with it, then he disappeared. He probably enabled Interactive governor too.
It could also affect CM7, I know for a while CM7 builds had issues with not supporting LPM at all - CM7 devices would go to the bootanimation and stay there.
hello! just wondered if one of you lovely people could help? (yes im a noob)
my s2 keeps freezing, has constant drag and is just being a tad bit annoying.
i bought the phone new, i had rooted it and put a custom rom on. the custom rom ran fine for months so i doubt that is was a dodgy rom. then one day i just started getting these problems. so i took off the rooted rom, and when the problem was still there i unrooted (if that is the term) and rebooted to factory settings. i still have the problem though.
I have since rooted the phone again and am running the factory settings.
any help would be highly appreciated!!
It could be a 101 things.
Try rootbox v1.8 / dreamkernel v2.7.
I never have any problems with that.
Have you installed any apps recently? It might be an app..

Are you having the problem of the lock screen/brightness with every rom ?
You can figure by yourself if it's hardware issue , if every rom has same issues it's the phones problem
yes your right it must be the hardware problem then. oh no!! what should i do??
Maybe give GB a quick blast.
If its the same then Id brick it if you still have warranty(as samsung will probably load latest firmware and give you it back with the same problems as before).
ye il get in contact with vodafone tomorow
sorry but what is GB?
Hello guys,
Im phone has a freezing issue on lockscreen open.
When my phone is sleeping for a while and try to unlock it, it freezes and only a black screen is seen. sometimes notification bar will show up and disappear.
Nothing works only the lock screen seems to work fine but when unlocked only a black screen is seen.
This problem happens with two differents Roms and also tried two different kernel and still have the same issue.
Stock rom seems not to have this issue.
Im so confused now.
You have answered yourself its the roms you use .

You need to wipe before flashing any rom. Also you need to reboot manually after choosing your tweaks, not from the app.

Random reboots? Did the tweaks app mess something up?
I can't think of anything besides removing the battery then powering on.
The other option is to re flash the rom or i hope you have a nandroid.
When you use those tweaks you gotta be careful man it's like running across the street. Don't tweak it so much it might break something in the rom. That's why nandroids are your friend.

When you flashed any rom, did you fully wipe? Aka format all partitions. This prevents almost all error while flashing.
I'm not sure why you have a grey battery icon.
Do you mean it happens in every rom you use? I think I know what's wrong. You may have a defective battery. You can buy a battery on ebay for cheap.
I'm not sure what's happening here or what you are fully saying but that might be it, a bad battery is causing your problems.

Youll have to flash the rom youre using again or flash a nandroid backup.

Yes In last 10 days I used 4 roms & after ARHD I got this problem . Then I flashed stock ruu and deodexed rom too but still facing the problem.
& about battery ..... I think my battery is ok. Its something else. I used super wipe when I flashed stock rom. So I m looking into it and will reply if something +ve happens.
Thanks.
Does the Grey battery icon have an exclamation point in it? If it does its a problem with the battery. Can u take a screen shot and post it.

Good evening fellow XDA members,
My s4 started flickering it's lower half of its screen when I upgraded to Hyperdrive 10.2. It is only when the screen dims from auto brightness or when I just manually lower it. The dimmer I put my brightness the more flickering it does. How can I fix this?
I'm running Hyperdrive 11 on my S4 non safe strap.
Thank you,
That's weird, I've never seen that before.... I'd recommend reinstalling the rom, and see if that fixes it. Does it do it on the stock rom?

Your apps will still be there if you dirty flash the rom. Try it and see if it fixes the problem. If not, you might have to do a clean install.

I have this exact same problem on my s4 .... been doing it for approx. 3 months now. Sent it back to samsung just before xmas, they returned it saying it wasnt faulty. I still have same problem, like a fool i didn't try it before installing all previous apps. Didn't realise i could reproduce flicker by turning brightness down till reading your post so i intend to factory reset my s4 in next couple of days to check it. This should help clarify if software prob or not. I will update when checked. :good:

So I'm assuming the screen flickering is a hardware issue?
I have just factory reset my s4, removed sim and ext. memory card and i still have the screen flickering so i guess it is a hardware issue. As i said it has already been back to samsung so gonna call them now see what they say.

Thought I'd bump this thread since I've got this same problem. I think it's just coincidental that it happened a little after the KitKat update (I'm stock). It seems like a hardware issue. It only flickers at the dimmest setting, which is odd, and only the bottom half.
Did Samsung ever help you out with this?
Same problem here guys. I've read all your posts and would like to add that the screen is flickering the most when the battery is extremly low. A tech said that it might be the battery or it might be a faulty screen electronics.
Any luck with roms or any solutions?
