Lockscreen re-install

Is there any way to re-install the default lockscreen for un-rooted Desire?
The problem is, I installed Lock2.0, uninstalled it, now my Desire is really ****ed up. The locksceen goes off like after 1-2secs, so it need constantly touching to keep it awake. Theres not the "dim phase" at all, just black after a few secs. Reboot doesnt fix this.
Whats the weirdest thing, Keepscreen works only 50% of time so it doesnt solve the problem.

G-Sensor and call problems

Well first of all I love Android, but I have some problems. The first problem I have is the G-Sensor, it used to work, but suddenly it stopped working properly. Now when I want to rotate the screen I have to hold it the way I want it to turn for 20 seconds, is there a solution to this problem?
Now my second and most important problem is calling. I have multiple problems with it. One of them is when I'm being called while the phone is in lockscreen I try answering it but I have to wait ten seconds before it actually answers, mostly the caller is already connected to my voicemail. My second problem is the End Call button when is press it, it says ended but I also have to wait ten seconds before it actually ends the call. Does anyone have the solution to these problems?
For further information, I use Froyostone 3.2. And sorry for my poor English.
Could anyone please help me, sorry for the bump?
Also I notice that my hardware buttons light up randomly.
I also have the same problem. Well at least with the g sensor. Running android 2.2 the problem with my g senor is whenever I flip messages they will not flip back. (along with anything else that does flip) I've done the re-calibration on the phone and this is what happens.. x axis is fine y axis either stays all the way up or goes all the way down. When I start the calibration the y and x axis both go to the middle but after when calibration is done the y axis goes right back up or right back down.
Thanks in advance if any one can help.
The same thing happens to me when I'm trying to calibrate it. Also have you tried holding your device for 10-20 seconds the way you want to turn it? This solves the problem for me, but I would like it to happen a little faster.
I calibrated the G-sensor when I first put on Android, bad mistake, the Bubble just stayed at the top and nothing rotated properly. The Sensor worked fine in WinMo so I guessed I'd screwed it up.
Since read somewhere on here that you shouldn't Calibrate it in Android.
Had to reinstall Android fresh to get it to work again, but its been working fine since.
Was on froyostone 3.1, when I reinstated upgraded to 3.2, all is great

Okay that could be the solution. Do you also know if I need to put a new data image on it. I would like to keep my old one, but I thinks the problem lies there or doesn't it?
You might be able to calibrate your G-sensor in Android. Click the calibrate button and place your phone screen down on a flat surface. For some reason, calibrating only seems to be working when you face your phone screen down. It did the trick for me, fixed the offset and it's working just fine now.

I tried changing the data image from 3.1 to 3.2 but the g-sensor was the same, i just used Titanium Pro to backup the data i wanted to keep and reinstalled.
Try the Phone on its screen re-calibrate as suggested, ive read that may work as Roeltjuh suggested, but that was after i had reinstalled
That seem to do the trick, thank you!
Does anyone have the solution to my other problems? Also I've noticed a new problem, sometimes my WiFi won't turn on till I reboot. In the settings menu it says shutting down WiFi. But its already been shut down, and because of the loading it takes to shut down wifi, I can't turn it back on and my data connection says that it will be turned on when my WiFi is shut down. So I always have to reboot.
Sorry for all the questions, but I believe some of them can be fixed and they're too annoying to ignore. And again sorry for my poor English.

Unresponsive screen

Android 2.3, 407band, DSC 7.0 rom, Go launcher (default), Zeam launcher (secondary)
Today while using an app called wallbase, I hit the home button while the app was setting a wall paper for me (normally I wait until it says wallpaper set). The home screen popped up but then Go launcher had a FC error (which it has never had since I've been using it). It had the option fc or wait I hit wait. Next my wall paper went black then my screen followed by two vibrations and a notification sound I never heard my device make.
I rebooted to the lock screen with a black background and no service on the screen. It was unresponsive to my touch and after about 10sec. it gave the same two vibrations and sound from before then shut the screen off. The power button did not turn on the display so I had to hold it down for about 20sec for it to reboot to dell logo. From there i went into nandroid and flashed severals roms loaded to the lock screen, rinse/repeat, to find the same result (simple streak, streakroid, older version of dsc).
I reset permissions, wiped cache and dalvik, calibrated screen. Want to avoid a factory reset because I don't have a backup.
Help guys? Mods please move to the appropriate forum.
If all fails and you don't have another alternative.
install the DSC v0.70 update, it shouldn't delete your 'data'.
I would backup your streak, better be safe than sorry.
So I tried letting it sit with the battery out for the night (6 hours) and booting it up this morning with the ac charger. It loads to the same lock screen (standard screen with black background and no service on screen) and all my start up apps loads, it even showed me a text notification. I did notice that the time was wrong though and never changed.
Any one have this issue before? What suggestions are there to combat this? The G.Note doesn't fit into my budget right now. May have to factory reset this and sell it as a last resort.
Help guys?
Outlook for this issue looks grim. Seem others with a similiar issue on different devices have had to factory reset or return it to manufacturer.
Before I do that, is there are any possible way for me to backup some of my app data?
Anyone know if Dell still helps with this device?
I use the app cadrebible often(its the only one I really care about) but it doesn't auto sync/backup and my last manual backup must be from Dec2011 - yea makes me want to cry.
I can load into fastboot, so is there a way I can uninstall a few apps I suspect are causing the issue? Move files from the phones to the sd card/computer?
factory reset. Mod feel free to close thread. -- yes im crying.
Did you try calibrating the touch screen?

Can't rotate..

Hey guys.. I have been having this problem for a couple months now.. didnt bother me that much but now I want to fix it...
My screen won't rotate.. It worked.. one day I updated and it didn't work anymore.. now I have CM 12 and it still won't work.. I have autorotate on of course.. but sometimes (rarely) when I open WhatsApp and a screen for password protection (app called Applock) pops up it pops up horizontally and turns quickly back to normal.. but I can't rotate no matter how I place the phone.. I installed gyroscope back then everything seemed to be fine (with the sensors) but it just won't rotate..
anybody can help?
Maybe an app that is causing it? Do a full wipe, reflash rom and don't install any apps. See if it works.
Nope.. didn't work.. which is really weird.. is used to work.. I didn't drop my phone once.. any other tips?
People... no help?

HELP little red sensor(?) always on next to front camera idk why

Hello all!
Yesterday I was 9gagging in my bed, and I noticed that little led started constantly lighting. Tried 2-3x to reboot but nothing happened, after the startup it started to light again... https://imgur.com/a/m4FK9lC You can see it in the picture.
Other question:
My screen rotation is also bugged. Tried to fix that with those reboots, but again nothing happened. I can not rotate my phone. (Only youtube fullscreen rotates the image, anything else stays horizontal)
Maybe its time for a ROM? The system starting to fall apart, had numerous random reboots etc. But I am afraid that with the ROM, a I will have a lot of other problems, like bluetooth and wifi not working together, camera is gonna be ****ty without LG's app.
What should i do?

That is the proximity sensor, and it is a normal behavior, otherwise it couldn't do its job
Yeah i know, but it should not light 24/7 and it did not light 24/7 before. Its a weird bug. And its really annoying... Especially at night...
Have you tried factory reset? Ib know it's the easy answer but I think it's the best in your case.
Anyway, it seems like a hardware issue, so if it persists after factory reset, I would send the phone to repair (i hope is still under warranty)

Yes it does. It turns off AOD in your pocket, raise-to-pick-up, screen off when in call.
There are a lot of actions connected to this sensor.
Btw, mine is also on all the time.

Just tried factory reset now for the rotation bug, it looks like I somehow totally broke it. I used pixel live wallpapers, especially the Zion national park one which used the accelerometer constantly. Tried a numerous kind of calibration apps, and all of them failed.
Totally hopeless now, i have to use a ****ty app to rotate my screen every time :/
