So this isn't really a big deal but when my screen turns off it turns off like a tv where as when it turns on it just pops up like normal. Is this just how it is with ROMs or is there a way to change it back. I noticed this was happening too with my LG Esteem.

Depending on the ROM you should be able to disable CRT animation in display settings or general rom settings.

Odd. I wouldn't be surprised if someone has created a mod to remove the CRT animation. Check the mod threads and see. You can always try requesting the mod, or even ask in the rom thread for a toggle.

So im running ICScrewed 1.6 rom, and if i hold the phone sideways and put it in sleepmode, when i wake it back up, the screen is upsidedown, and the words are mirrored. I already tried reflashing the rom. Anything I can do? Yes im a noob
In jkay in check the CRT TV animation on. Its buggy
sent from the Dark Obelisk.
just do a screen capture (hold home and press power button)
no need to reboot.
thats all i got for right now
It is my understanding that Fancy Rotations is causing this, but don't take my word for it. (read it in one of the ICS-themed ROM threads.)
Noz might be onto something because I notice my screen go upside-down real quick as it locks (CRT Animation on). It never gets stuck like the OP is describing but I do notice this happens for a quick second before my screen shuts off.

This makes it worse.
In the ICScrewed thread there is a CWM flashable zip called "Remove Fancy Rotations". Install that using CWM and your problem will be gone. Its been brought up a lot in that thread.
Ment to say turn the CRT off.

Yea that does help, but I still got the upside down screen when using GOSMS and popup notifications. Pretty damn annoying. Removing fancy rotations does the trick though. Fancy rotations are nice and all, but nowhere near worth it for the screen bug.
I randomly got that yesterday. Took a screen shot and all is well
Strange issue though.

Happened to me too. The best part about it is that while in the inverted and upside down state, you press the sane area on the screen to select things. Very tricky to reboot . But yes, after disabbling crt off anim it stopped occurring.

Removing Fancy Rotations is the only real way to prevent this from happening. Good post.
Hmm, my GF just called me about this.
Odd we are running the same everything and that has yet to happen to me.
Whenever I receive new message/whatsapp/email/facebook/etc., my screen doesn't lights up to show me the notifications but it only makes the notification sound. Is there any way to turn on the screen when notification received?

It' s not an iPhone that's the reason why you have a notification light BTW it saves battery too. What a nonsense to turn the screen on each time you get a notification. Are iPhones still do that? I don't think that stock sense can do that.

Cool app and works similar to bitesms on iPhone jailbroken app. Only good thing though is the quick reply but imo the graphics on this make it look way out of date compared to the stock messenger. Only thing I don't like is when in your pocket you can accidentally hit reply and have issues if u know what I mean. Great alternative though for the few people that can't live without the screen turning on with a new text, lol. Personally I like it the way it is, does save some unneeded screen time and no possible way to case accidental responses. But if u just stare at ur device all day waiting for a text to appear, I can see the appeal, lol.
is there any other method to pop the screen?
i have been using the power button to pop the screen, is there any other alternative method?

I installed aokp from task650 & ktoonsez. I think it's brilliant and I am pleased.
I am not sure if this feature is unique to aokp or jellybean in general, but when I click the power button to lock screen / sleep, there's a distinct white flash of light like an old CRT monitor turning off. Is there any way to disable this and simply have the screen go black instead?
Thank you.

You must be really new to this. I don't recall aokp having an option to turn that off, but if it did, it would be called something like "crt animation."
If you go to dev options and change your animation speed it disables it
Members if you are not going to be providing with your posts...since this is the Q&A, then move on, I hope we understand. No need for non helping/unprovided posts.
Thank You.

roger that. thanks.
Does any one have the same issue? I have set it to always be on but it only works when the screen is on. Please advise.
It was that way with the S8+ also. I thought it was supposed to work when the screen is off but I could never get it to work. Kind of a bummer since I think it would be a cool feature.

I tried contacting the customer support and all they told me was to reset the settings because something might have interfered with it

Super helpful as always. I thought maybe the always on display had to be on, but it doesn't seem to matter. The only way it works is with the screen on that I've found.
No problems with edge lighting here. Been working every time.

But it's not working if the screen is off or in standby that is what he says. I had a s8 and i never get it work
It didn't work for me on the s8 bjr MSG and WhatsApp are working fine now. Nothing else
I had mine working and it got turned off. It was only working with screen on. Went back into settings, and apparently the settings got reset to default when I switched samsung themes. Changing the settings back fixed my issue. I can confirm, that at least on mine, edge lighting does work with screen off.
Edit: Apparently it's no longer working again after just trying it.
you guys have to turn it on for all apps, normally it is on just for 3 of them
Same here.

Tried that too. Still doesn't work.
Maybe is not working when you are using one of the live infinity display themes...? Have you tried with normal backgrounds (and consequently with normal AOD - not live one).
Maybe is just working when the device is screen down?.
Just a thought.
I've had no issues with it working with the screen off. I have AOD on and the original theme still. I only have it set to come on when I get a text thru Textra app
It turns out you have to make sure that pop up notifications is on when the screen is off for all the apps you want the edge lighting to work.:fingers-crossed:
Yet another stupid software design from Samsung, all most of us want is that the edge lighting can replace the notification led, right? But no somehow they over complicate this ****.

It varies between apps. For whatsapp its in the more options menu->settings->notifications->pop up notification set it to either always show up or show up when screen off

But the annoying what's app box pops up too when you go look at your phone.
The one app that works when the screen is off is messages for me.
I know there is a thread on the app, but here's a video of me setting it up

This is super helpful, thank you for going through this. I got it setup but still having some issues - the notch light is always on haha. going to have to tweak this some more.
Hey all,
Check out the app LED Blinker Pro, there is an option to have a blinking light on the screen. Looks exactly like previous samsung phones, and you can also have multiple lights for different notifications. Problem solved!

Did you try it and does it work?
Just to know if the API that supports it is there.
It seems the downsides of all the led apps is that once you get the notification you can't unlock the phone with the fingerprint sensor, you have to double tap the screen or something to cancel the app and then unlock the phone.
Working pretty well for me this far. I added this app on my gf's and my S10 Plus's. Besides going through the bevy options we have it setup. The light only goes around the camera when a notification comes in. Still doing some tsing so I'll update if anything.

There is an option though that you can select that if you pickup your phone, it goes right to the lock screen so you don't have to dismiss the led screen.
nice app but it's a killing battery

I noticed that, but then beside it it said it uses more power. I switched to aod instead, if only you could get rid of the clock and date and simply have notifications on it.
