[Q] Screen wake up - earphone - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Every time I plug in my earphones in my I9100, the screen wakes up. I have this issue on every Samsung JB ROM and this is very annoying for me. Is there a fix/mod/tweak to disable this?

no. this feature is inbuilt in software.

There isn't a Mod really as of yet, But you can try other ROMs such as Cyanogen mod 10.1 which has such options (removing the wake-up when plugging in) inbuilt into it.
Now let me finish my beer. :beer:

[Q] A way to Disable vibration when shutting down

Hi all,
as the title says...is there any way of turning off / disabling the vibration that happens to tell you your phone is off.?
it's really annoying
running Omega ICS v10 - XWKL1
TIA..

Seriously ? How many times do you shutdown your phone per hour ?
I do not know of such mod and I don't believe that someone else thought to remove it ...

there was no need to be nasty, if you didn't know, just say you don't know.
@blueseeker I do it once per day when I go to bed and it's a pointless vibrate so just wondered if I'd missed a setting or if anyone had a script that would/could disable it..
But thanks for your response
@theguydan thanks for the criticism of the pointlessness of blueseekers comment

I don't think there is because it isn't normally seen as a big issue and can be useful (i.e. if you think your phone is bricked or there is a boot loop but it vibrates). Sorry I couldn't help more, it may depend on the rom you use (stock rom has a sound but Cyanogenmod doesn't).
Actually my i9000 doesn't vibrate after shutting it down !! Is it normal ??
It just stopped doing it after flashing a JVT !!
thanks
Prevent Samsun Galaxy S2 or S11 vibrating on shutdown
I've found a way of prevent the annoying shutdown vibration, but it involves stopping all vibrating alerts (I think).
Go to settings, sound, Haptic feedback and turn on the Haptic feedback (if it is not already), then go to vibration intensity (just below) and reduce the sensitivity to zero. Hey presto no more annoying vibration on shut down or indeed annoying vibration at any time .
as Zakarath said... I posted a similar solution just yesterday. Don't forget to use the search before you post. This has already been answered a couple of times.

[Q] (Q) How to keep the screen on while charging?

Hi everybody. I am using the S3 in the car, and I want the screen always on. On my S2 there was an option even in stock roms, to keep awake while charging in the developer options, but not in S3.
Is there anyway to do this? I am rooted. A 3d party application maybe?
Thanks in advance.

Try the Screen Timeout Toggle widget from the Google store.

[Q] UltimaRom 4.0 - Display being toggle'd on when turning it off

Hi all,
I've recently flashed my GS3 to UltimaRom 4.0. (Very nice Rom btw)
I have no complaints, other than this one small thingy. (don't know if it's a known issue or not but a search didn't reveal anything)
When I press the 'power' button to turn off the display and to put away my phone, it sometimes keeps turning the display on.
Pressing the power button turns it off and immediately turns it back on.
I have to unlock the phone first before I can lock it again and the display stays disabled.
It's not a big deal but annoying if you just want to check something fast and the screen keeps popping up.
Is there any known fix for this? Or am I just forgetting something configuration wise?
Thx for any advise.
No issue here. Maybe one of your apps is causing this.

Same here
I've got the same problem, I've not managed to nail it down to a single rogue app yet that may or may not be causing the issue. I'm running Omega v28 Jelly Bean, so I presume this isn't something wrong in either ROM, just an app like Arsaw says.
It could be:
The CRT bug (fixed in 5.1)
or
Something waking your screen a rogue app, or perhaps something asking for permissions and waking to do that (I had that once).
I'll place money on it being the CRT bug, though
Update to 4.1. There's lots of new features
So it was a bug, I had that too at 4.0 but I didn't pay much attention to it.
Quite late reply, but only had yesterday the chance to flash v4.1 i havent had the issue yet.
So it was probably indeed the problem mentioned above.
Thanks for you help!

Phone application behaves strange....

Hi guys,
i been having this very annoying problem with my GS3 LTE (9305) but when i compare to other GSIII's it seems only mine behave like this but i cant find any reason or any option for the cause.
Basically the problem is that when i call someone and the phone screen goes to off sometime i want to wake up the screen and press the button below the screen and what my phone does is to minimize the call application but on my friends phone the call application stays and only the screen is turned on.
Can you guys please help me finding the root cause to why my call application minimizes itself when the screen is off?
I been searching for every option there is and cant find anything useful, also i have never installed any other dialer application or anything like that.
Please help me this is getting me nuts.

I tested on a GSII LTE + GSIII + Note2 and all are running JB and works fine on their phone.
If it is a bug i hope Samsung fixes it soon, its been a while i got an update and this thing is so annoying.

I meant Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean roms... Jkays framework fixes this issue.
If i recall correctly it has something to do with a setting in s-voice I think. Also it happens with any application when the screen turns off.

Yes, this issue isn't unique to the dialler. If you let the screen timeout with any application then press the home key, it returns to the home screen.
The workaround is to make sure than in the S-Voice settings, you have "Open via the home key" option set. After this, a single home key press will wake the device without returning to the home screen.
Ask this question in the appropriate section

Sadly that didnt work either. I had actually S Voice disabled but enabled and did what you said but it still minimizes the call application
EDIT: very strange , tested calling 4-5 times and suddenly after my friend called me it started working. I called my other cell before and it works fine now. THANK ALLOT MAN.
EDIT2: funny i tried to disable S-Vice again and to my surprise it stil works.

[Q] [RR-LP] Flashlight turning off when screen locked

Hi everyone!
I just updated my Galaxy S2 I9100 from CyanogenMod 11 to Resurrection-Remix-LP-v5.5.0 (and I am using the stock kernel). Almost everything works fine but now when I turn the flashlight on and then lock the screen, it automatically turns off the light after a couple seconds.
So I assume that something linked with the custom ROM or Android 5.1.1 makes the phone quickly turn into a state where the LED must be off. But this bug is quite annoying and I would like to be able to use the flashlight also with the screen off. Any idea of what would cause this issue and how to solve it?
Thanks!

This is a bug that has been reported before. The only solution I know of is to install a different flashlight app from the market

Ok thank you then! Still, does anybody know what causes the bug? I did not actually find a thread where this is mentioned.
