Brightness issue - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have a LS980, right now running Slimkat, but was using Cloudys G3 rom.. Anyways since I moved from stock (had 4.4.2 rooted) , when I'm in direct sunlight or another strong source of light and I unlock my phone the screen doesn't get bright, it just stays really dim at the point is not possible to see it, I have to lock it and unlock it multiple times, or reboot to get it to work.
I've tied moving from manual to auto brightness back and forth, but issue is still there, it just seems the light sensor (?) is not working appropriately and it just stays dim.
I've tried flashing the kitkat baseband as suggested in Cloudys thread.. Clean install both Slimkat and G3 ports but still the same. Issue was not happening when I was running stock.
Any ideas or suggestions? Has anybody have this issue?

Something else I noticed, is that my baseband shows unknown even if I flash kit Kat baseband again

Rogers S5 Lollipop lock screen block text

I updated to 5.0 a while back when Rogers rereleased it, and every once in a while the numbers/letters on the lockscreen keypad will turn to white blocks. The lock screen is the only place that this happens.
Anyone know what's wrong/how to fix it besides rebooting the phone?

Bump!
Anyone has a better solution than reboot?
It is appearing on T-Mobile I-9505, I-9515 and G-900F.
Do you use SwiftKey? My girlfriends Canadian GS5 is doing this as well, when I searched the internet I found a reference with regards to SwiftKey not playing 100% nice with Lollipop and causing this blockyness on the lock screen. So far there has been no fix other than reboot... She's been a couple of months now with this annoyance, but luckily it doesn't seem to affect the usability, you just have to know which numbers are which Side note: I have a Nexus 5 and use Swiftkey but don't have this problem.
This is apparently just a general lollipop issue, not really tied to anything just a glitch in android, i dont know a fix just thought id throw that out there.

Blue Screen and then reboot with cm 12.1 and ress remix.

I'm facing the same problem that this guys are having. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-grand-2/help/help-blue-screen-error-samsung-grand-2-t2831445 except i only have it with cm 12.1 and ress remix.
I don't know if this has some relation with dual sim fixes, maybe.
I also noticed that it usually happens when the phone gets hot and i have to wait until s3 neo temperatures becomes normal, otherwise it'll show the blue screen and reboot again and again... Stock rom is ok, no errors, but cm 12.1 is much metter. It's a shame i can't use it propperly.
@Rox can u give me a hand? Idk what is logcat and how to do it, if its usefull i can do it.
Also i made some tests and most of times (90%) the blue screen happened after antutu test and always in this screen

There are plenty threads about logcat and how to use it. You dont know if it's related with the fixes: Reflash it without the fix and check how it goes. But sure it is the the fix that causes this (taking into account that you have reflashed the rom after the issue because sometimes maybe something doesn't go well when flashing/copying).

Wifi not working suggestions needed

Hello guys, I was using Google edition ROM for 1-2 months in my LGG2 D802
A week ago suddenly the wifi stopped working. It keeps showing turning on wifi and nothing happens.
I flashed other ROMs at the settings wizard the wifi started but turned itself off after few minutes.
So I visited LG care nearby, they flashed ROM in it to check if it starts working and it didn't.
They suggested to replace the board which will cost 5k INR
Should I go for it?
*bump*
FINALLY WiFi TURNED ON!
FINALLY!

What I did?
- Flashed stock ROM
- kept wifi turned off
- turned off automatic date update
- then turned on wifi
So, basically its the automatic date update which is killing the wifi everytime. don't know why..
Please inform to people to try this method facing this issue.
Thank god didn't sell it for 5000Rs :laugh:

Keyboard Glitch/Broken after Rooting/Flashfyre

Hi guys,
I have a fresh S7 SM-G930V(Android 6.0.1). Which i logged in via google and it downloaded all my previous apps on my old phone(i assume it automatically does)
I was following https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039.
And now my keyboard is now starting to look weird

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I completed all the steps and rooted to the following image "Samsung_G930x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR (any Samsung Galaxy S7) (MD5 hash 948A01ECCF280828DFD13AC366F6FE85)"
and used Odin3_v3.12_PrinceComsy.zip as opposed to the other odin.
Any ideas besides using another keyboard app?
EDIT: Just flashed back to G930VVRU4API3, which i thought was my stock rom but has a purpleish first time start up which i thought should be blueish?
Going to try and re-flash a root after work again.
UPDATE2: I Follow the rooting/xposed steps again and now i got my normal keyboard back. The difference is that the verizon startup is white/red while when i first ever used the phone it was a blueish/purple verizon start up. But i feel that it was definitely 6.0.1 with PI3.
Accessing the phone via cable seems extremely slow but thats for another thread...
I am now rooted with a working keyboard, now time to work on the other issues....

G935V WiFi and Bluetooth will not turn on.

Hi, I recently bought a shattered Galaxy S7 Edge from facebook marketplace for $45..

EDIT: So i want to know if there is any like modem file or what not i can try to flash via open to reinstall the "drivers" for the wifi/bluetooth, if that make sense? Or what do i do? Thanks in advance
I suggest you to install this [Rom][VZW_CRI1][Stock_Oreo_PreRooted_Easy_Unroot/Root][Safestrap_Preinstalled] and then unroot (tuto is in there too)
that way you will have flashed stock firmware, which will problbly solve your issue. And then jrkruse rom, which is great. You will end with a perfectly working, debloated phone
