went from leaked gingerbread back to syndicate 1.1.0 and now the autorotate doesn't work, only when i open the keyboard. I did all the fixes, it still doesn't work, any idea how to fix it. I've had 3 epics and never had the problem of it not rotating, always slow rotating or something like that, but never no rotating.
Did autorotate get turned off in the Launcher Pro settings?

this is fullyloaded touchwiz and its on.
I wiped data and everything, still doesn't work.
Try this
Did you calibrate the accelerometer first? That might fix it. Mine get kinda wonky after reflashing and especially after using Odin.
i did the calib_yamaha, I calibrated the sensor, nothing did anything, I flashed the gb leak again and it works fine, I flash back to sf 1.1.0 and it doesn't work, so now I'm stuck on the gb leak which is a problem because the phone barely works and keeps dropping calls so I really need to get back to froyo.

Are you referring to rotating the home screen, or any and all apps? I might be mistaken, but I don't think TouchWiz rotates the home screen, at least not without sliding out the keyboard...
Also, I would recommend upgrading to SRF 1.2, it's even better than 1.1

the apps, they don't rotate at all, nothing rotates unless you pop the keyboard out.
This happened to be when I tried a different rom couldn't get it to work for the life of me.
Cleared data, Flashed SR v1.20 and it works now.

so why would 1.20 be any different that 1.1.0? I actually tried to get 1.20 last night, but the website kept coming up that it could not be found.

Well, because 1.2 *is* different than 1.1 - hence the change in version numbers...
Why would you expect the two to be exactly the same? Kind of a silly question
A better question would be, "WHAT is different between the two, that would cause the auto rotate problem in 1.1?"
I don't know that answer, though... I think it may have been tied to the fully loaded version, because I remember experiencing it only once - when I briefly tried fully loaded, before going back to standard

Ok let me clarify my post. Running SR v1.1.1, rotate worked fine. Flashed Revoltion rom, didn't like it, few things didn't work like autorotate.
So I flashed another rom which fixed it, chose SR 1.2 to give it a try. If I flashed v1.1.1 that may have worked also.
so can we get back to the issue, i've tried 1.1.1 and the autorotate doesn't work. it appears to be a froyo issue as it worked fine for months and months and now only gingerbread roms will rotate. could that be because i'm using eh17 modem? i wouldn't think so.

Well, one or many of the changes between 1.1 and 1.2 might have affected rotation as a side effect - whatever caused the glitch in 1.1 must have been changed for a completely unrelated reason, and the glitch disappeared...
I think, from what you've reported, that it had something to do with the extras in the fully loaded version - that used a hacked TW, right? 1.2 doesn't have a fully loaded package that I'm aware of... But try the standard version, or just use the most recent version since it *is* better

It does nut appear to be a froyo issue, because 1.2 is froyo without the issue... In fact, so far the only froyo that appears to have this issue is the fully loaded version of 1.1... Several examples of froyo without the issue vs one with the issue would indicate that froyo is not the problem at all...
Unless I missed the part where you duplicated the issue on several other froyo roms - all I've seen mentioned is SRF 1.1 fully loaded... Have you seen the problem on 1.1 standard edition?
But you are correct about the modem having nothing to do with it
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
well you could be right, but i've been using the 1.1 for months and months, longer than any other rom and havent had a problem, and I've run many other roms, never had a problem. only time i've ever seen something like this is since running gingerbread leaks, now they work and the old one doesn't, I've flashed that same rom probably 10 times, never had a problem, gone from bonsai to that one and back again, never a problem so I would doubt the rom would have anything to do with it. I'll try the 1.2 if I can get it downloaded. last night the page wasn't coming up.

Perhaps a full odin back to stock froyo, then reinstall everything from there...
I'm wondering if gingerbread updated something that froyo relied on for sensor data (this is a long shot, falling under the category of "I don't see how they're related, but why not?")
Otherwise, it *almost* sounds like a hardware issue - except that you said it works fine on gingerbread... well, unless GB is using a different sensor reading...

i've only run gb for like 2 weeks, was working fine on froyo, can't understand it. I did download srf 1.2 last night as the site would come up now. so i might play with that this weekend, although the GB is working now and making phone calls without dropping so aside from random reboots its working. kinda makes it hard to sell the thing eventually though if it won't rotate.
well I put on the srf 1.2, autorotate works fine, im perplexed as to why that is since autorotate worked fine for the 6+ months that I ran it and i've never had autorotate stop working on any of the 3 epics i've had and any of the roms. but at least its working now and i have a stable phone.

It has become quite clear that there is a small unlucky group of us that experience touch screen unresponsiveness at various times, mostly on froyo roms.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007304
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961042
Clearly I realize there are other threads that have discussed this in the past. I would like to find out just how common this problem really is and what we can do to fix it.
My personal experience: My screen works almost flawlessly on any eclair rom. Every froyo rom I have flashed (almost all the super cleans, vanilla AOSP, MIUI etc) I will experience unresponsive spots on the touch screen. Typically it starts in the lower left 1/4 then spreads to the entire screen. A brief lock and unlock of the phone usually gets it working again, only to return a few moments later. When my factory Samsung charger is plugged in the screen is completely useless.
Originally I thought it was a kernel problem but it still happens on the new OE released EC10 kernel as well as on the AOSP built ones. I think it is a hardware problem on certain phones. Why only froro? I have no idea.
Please participate in my survey so we can figure out how bad this really is.
I have also have the screen responsiveness issues. The middle of the screen becomes unresponsive and I have to lock and unlock to get the screen to work. This is only an issue with froyo ROMs. My wife has a fascinate and even though I flashed her phone the same way, she never has had screen responsiveness issues.

It always happened right away (sometimes within a few hours). I should point out this is not developer related. I have the same problems on fully bloated stock roms. I should have mentioned that in the op.
If you Odin back to stock DI01, does it still happen? If so, it sounds like a hardware defect. I, for one, have never seen any screen responsiveness issues at all on my phone, no matter which kernel or rom I'm on.

I am having the same issue. Mine is most often around the letters "s" and "k" and it seems intermittent. I was running DJ05 up until a few weeks ago. Then I flashed an EB01 kernel with DarkRevenge, and started to notice this problem. No issues when running DJ05.

I had this problem on some versions of SC 2.8 and at first with 2.9, but now on SC 2.9.2 I haven't had it.
Mine was mostly around letters O, I, N, K, but also sometimes E, R, A, and S. It usually happened after I had already pressed the letter. Take for example this message "I ran into...." I could type the letter I to start, but when I came to it again, it wouldn't register. Same with the letter N.
I had this happen after flashing certain themes. If I ran the ROM themeless, it wouldn't happen.
Factory wiped, ROM (2.9.2) refreshed, and have been running Nitsuj's gb theme with no probs for a few days now.

I ran the original Toxic Baby on my Girlfriends phone, I personally havent had a problem with these ROMS that wasnt user error, and I tend to think this is too, but her screen orientation is acting strange, not working.
On home screen (with auto orientate on) its vertical, but keeping the phone vertical and opening an app, it auto-switches to horizontal. the only way that I can find to correct this is to turn the auto-orientate off, which leaves ALL screens vertical.
I've tried factory data reset, flashing back to stock (ODIN) wiping ALL data from the boot screen but the problem persists. does anyone have some insight in to this?
The accelerometer is probably busted,I'm just guessing though.

I'll try that, hell, it cant hurt to. but Ive run the ROM on my phone with no problems, infact ive been torn on flashing a kernel over it just to try it, but I like the way they run without an additional MOD. of course I know no two phones are alike even if they are the exact same phone.
Is there a Kernel you could recommend?? (im kind of using her phone as a guinea pig now ) Ive been looking at Bali and deadhorse. I just dont know how they will interact with Jcc's ROM plus Voodoo.

I tried it yesterday, Wifi was not working, devs are working on it. Around 90mb free memory after install without sd partition. Will be better after partition.
Good news is has a fancy home screen and all. Looks very pretty. Very unique widgets for sms, mail etc.
I am waiting for the stable release.
3.5 was made so that older phones, like ours could run the newest version of sense smoothly. No matter what you do on any of the 3.0 roms, it doesnt run smoothly because its not optimized for our phones. 3.5 was made to run using less system resouces and because of that, runs way smoother on our phones compared to 3.0, plus it looks prettier too. With that being said, Wifi doesnt work, bluetooth doesnt work, MMS doesnt work, SMS splitting is broken using stock sms app (use handecent for better results). These things are due to the rom port itself, since the code came from a gsm phone, not a cdma phone like ours. Devs are working hard though.

Probably because half the OS isn't working yet. We'll see how it performs under full load when that happens.

First off, thanks for your help. But yeah I did that before downloading beta v.4 and got that phantom voicemail notification as soon as the homescreen finished loading after setup. I thought maybe downloading the vvm.apk and restoring my data using Titanium would have fixed that but it didn't. I even't re-provisioned my voicemail by sending a blank voicemail to [email protected] still didn't fix it.
I wiped, wiped, wiped, and did a nandroid restore back to stock android 2.1. Then rebooted it to the stock android 2.1. Then shut it down and went into recovery (the latest Amon Ra). I wiped, wiped, wiped, wipe.zip, then flashed beta v.6. Rebooted and as soon as I was done with the setup, that damn phantom voicemail notification came up!!!
Anymore suggestions anyone?? Thanks in advance

Weird. My buddy has the same problem as me, so I thought for sure it's universal. We're both on a variant of the same ROM though so maybe there is a specific issue to our software...
The problem is when refreshing (via the new pulldown mechanism or the menu) or changing to a different section. The display area essentially gets shrunken to about 1/10th the screen height.
Guess I'll have to do some more investigation. Sorry for the alarm.

Dont worry, you're not insane. Seeing the same issue here. Box-stock JVR.
I just got an update for the facebook app, maybe the problem was more wide-spread.
Even after this morning's update the problem is still there for me.
The weird part is, on the very FIRST run on the app - if you've cleared the data and are signing in - the problem is NOT present on the initial News Feed view.
As soon as I close that view and restart the app, the problem is back.
So tried to add this to the alpha 5 topic, but I do not have 10 posts yet.
I flashed from MIKG 3.0 to alpha 5 on Friday with no issues. I ran the fix for the google calendar and was happy with the overall setup. I added the COD tweaks and was impressed with the speed/smoothness of the system. Camera worked out of the box and didn't have any real issues until tonight.
Phone randomly restarted, no big deal. but then I noticed that i had degraded signal. did the *18 call with no change. I had to send a few texts and they all hung and finally failed. restarted phone and same issue occurred.
With the ROM still being a WIP I was not upset, it just isnt a daily driver yet, close though.
next issue was when i restored from nandroid. I hung at the boot screen for ever. Pulled battery and did full wipe and tried again to no avail. I was getting worried at this point. I did have an earlier nan backup of MIKG and that one worked.
Oh and much to my kids dismay angry birds would not load.
Not really looking for any help just trying to get my posts in.
Thanks!

nice info ive been trying to find out how the ics roms are going cuz i havent had time to flash myself. but in regards to your nandroid restore not working. what recovery are you using? (you should use amon-ra 2.3 if you aren't already) and also the mikg restores take a while to load because sense 3.0 is huge, if it doesn't load in about 2-3 minutes then just pull the battery and start it up (don't wipe) and it should boot right up in a reasonable time. it happens occasionally. and welcome to xda saw you had one post so i figured i would welcome you
I have flashed multiple versions of MIKG all wit CWM, it was up in the 7-10 min boot loop time. the kick stand was getting warm. I started with the batt at 90% and when I was finally back up it was at 20%.
I as well can't post. I came from cm7. I used from manager to back up cm7 then install alpha5. Worked fine for me. Using cwm instead of ra though. Not sure if that makes any difference.

I would try to flash with ra. The rom is working great for me as a daily.
Only issue I had with Deck's ICS was no GPS for Navigation.
You may have to do the GPS fix by going into sense rom

I have tried it with no success. Guess my phone just hates GPS It happens with every other ROM I flash. I keep the GPS fix file on my SD card, GPS status/toolbox app, and a fresh sense ROM at hand just in case.

Yeah there's something always wrong with CWM I have used amon-ra since February and have had no problems with it. Also as a sidenote with amon my mikg back up with 300mb of apps took all of 5 minutes to back up and like 8% battery. If your backup drained 70% of your battery there is definately something wrong haha

Glad you posted this here.
I don't have enough posts either. I like the ROM but i had a few random reboots too. I flashed from Team Nocturnal stock RLS.5. I also use CWM for Nandroid. I was getting around in ICS well but had a few hangups. Calandar was the biggest issue, but I think I remember that being mentioned, so no biggie. The only major issue I cared about and I don't know if this has been any one else's problem, but my benchmark was significantly lower on this ROM. 805 on quadrant. Just wanted to post if anyone is reading. That would explain why it was a little jerky.
almost there!! lol
ics was really fun to play with. have u tried swapping to nova launcher? it seemed to free the rom up a bit and make it much more tolerable. I do like trebuchet because it seems to look better imo.
my gps seemed to work fine after i flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15760767&postcount=30 it did cut out eventually but that was after a flash to a 3.0 rom ( not to do the gps fix btw) and nandroiding back sooooo i dunno could have been something got fubared in there
there was a calendar fix somewhere in the 400 page post. you had to flash a specific gapps and calendar fix.
Flashed Decks a5 the day it was released. Loved it. I'm still running CWM and haven't had any issues. I did install the GPS drivers listed in a GPS fix post and use Waze for navigation. Quick lock and solid. Gmail sync and calendar sync worked as well, using Jorte as my calendar. I used the file titled ICSGoogleApps12-16. My only issues were the jerky video and most games I played wouldn't load.
Amazing work, I tried all the other ICS rom's and I had less issues and smoother operations with Deck's.
Great talent. I have no complaints cause I know it is all a work on progress. I can't believe my old EVO is running ICS before my buddy who just got a new phone...... priceless! !!!!!

After flashing any new ROM or ROM update I always flash the latest GPS Fix from here ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1132412
... and the latest Radio Combo from here ...

It always fixes GPS lock for me (CM7 nightlies, ICS Evervolv, Deck ICS). Always Nandroid backup of course. I don't use Sense ROM's so YMMV.

Similar experience as well.
I'm using the Google Calender sync and don't seem to be having any problems with it. Haven't tried that GPS fix though, gunna try that tonight.
I've noticed as looking through the official thread it seems many people have a problem with the trebuchet (sp) launcher on page 7 of the widgets. I'm having no issues. Anyone else like this?

I had an issue with the stock launcher on page 7 of the widgets. I just switched to Nova Launcher and have had not problems, in fact I personally like it better.
I've also been using this rom lately. Although it has some features broken, its still very very usable. Makes me realize how much I don't use "premium" features.

Also, this from us very snappy and smooth. But when I do quadrant benchmarks, it gets a score of about 945, which is lower than stock evo and lower than my 1500 scoring miui rom, but it feels faster nonetheless. Is this a product of the hardware acceleration?

Disregard what I said. I'm actually using drew's. So many ics roms out there.

So I've been running decks for awhile now, no problems. Only thing is I get a random freeze and reboot about once a day or so. Anyone else having that issue?
