my back button suddenly change to lock. so instead of going back to previous screen, it lock the computer
not really important, but annoying. on my original rom, same programs i installed without any problem. but when i started playing with the rom/s this problem appear. even when i tried to go back to the original rom, the rom does not disappear.
i've installed rom, hard reset many times. cannot make the problem goes away. funny..before this on original rom...got no problem.
the other problem is the sleep mode time going too short 15s, regardless what ever time i set i.e 5min, 30min. it still goes to sleep at 15s.
which registary i need to modify in order to solve this two problem
Moved to general as not rom development
The other day I installed the new CM RC2 rom on my HTC Wildfire. Everything went fine for the couple of days until it went into sleep mode and I could not come out of it. I had to pop the battery and when still problems, I re-installed rom - again with flashed kernal 4.1 and up to date gapps.
Managed to get it working. But then same thing again. Overall I had to re-install 5 times yesterday alone!
Out of frustration I tried to re-install my CM RC1 from before with the kernal 4.1. And this was fine again for about an hour, then again, mobile went into sleep mode, and again was left with black screen. Again not able to come out of it.
Am at a loss as to how to get my mobile back up and running. If anybody can help, this would be most appreciated.
Thanks
Does this happen with all ROM's, or simply CM7? Also, what are your overclock values and SetCPU Profiles, if any?
Have only tried cm7 so far. and cpu was not touched. was left at default settings. Am not able now to even boot into recovery. Totally DEAD!
Probably a hardware issue. I doubt CM7 can have such far reaching implications as to make the phone dead. Anyhow, this issue looks uncannily similar to this
Thats worrying.
If I do manage some how to get it switched on, is there anything that you can suggest to stop this happening again?
Also keeping the battery out of the mobile for a 5 mins, SHOULD that help instead of just taking out and imediatley replacing?
Doesnt sound too good. If you manage to switch it on you could try setting your minimum cpu speed to 245mhz+ Although it sounds like you have more serious issues. If its still under warranty I would consider returning it
Thats what I feared.
Thing is, cause it is rooted, it is out of warranty. I dont think I have a leg to stand on.
Its worth a try, they may not even check/notice that its rooted
Well.......
I managed to get it switched on. And decided to try and install Wildpuzzle as I had that on the phone before with no problems. And so all was well......
....untill just now.
Mobile went into sleep mode, and when I pressed the power button to get into it, black screen. Wouldnt come out of sleep mode. So had to pop battery again and after 10 mins, re booted it.
This seems to be the norm now. If it gets a chance to drop off into sleep mode, then I am stuck.
I am starting to pull my hair out.
Have just read on another thread that should try turning off auto rotation and auto brightness.
Fingers crossed this will work.
If the problem occurs throughout various ROMs it could well be hardware related. Flash an RUU (this will get rid of all traces of root) and return it
Will do.
Thanks
cant access cm7 rc2
any ideas why i cannot access or see any file in the website download.cyanogenmod.com regarding cm7 rc2 for buzz/wildfire?
I've been having the sleep of Death since I got my atrix I never use wifi so it can't be that it many happens whilst browsing the Internet once finished I lock phone leave come back to it say 5 minutes later and I can't wake the fone so I have to pull the battery out to get it started
Dose anyone else have the happen to them iv tried reset full flash but it's still there
And could I ask what FakeBlurXmppApp.apk is because since I renamed it I ant had a sod?
I think renaming is the reason of problem if it is the only change you did to phone.
Stock roms usually don't have problems like that.
Sorry for not giving you a real help.

Na once I renamed it stopped going into sod
I had the same issue with my Motorola Photon 4G, people are having this issue, I don't understand why it keep doing this, how stupid?
The first time this happened to me I just plugged it in around 60% and went to bed and when I woke up in the morning there was nothing. Even taking the battery out and putting it back in, only the LED cokes on briefly but Jo other signs of booting and the only way I fixed it was by plugging it into a computer, or as I found out the second time an XBOX 360 so I'm thinking just something with a data connection, and pulling it out as soon as the LED flashes green then plugging it into the wall charger. Then the phone came up with the battery charging screen at 0%. After it charged I booted up like normal and it was fine for awhile until one time it died and I had to repeat the process to get it to come back up.
Send it in for a replacement, i had two do this to me and both ended up going out. They were unlocked but once they went out AT&T could not tell.
are you on a stock rom or custom rom? before calling for a new one try flashing 1.2.6 sbf and reroot and unlock the bootloader again.it wont say unlocked when you first flash the sbf reboot and reroot but it still is, itll say the boot loader is already unlocked when you go to unlock it thats fine just reboot and itll be back at the top. im saying this cause i had a similar problem and i couldnt turn the phone on or charge it at all i ended up using a different atrix to charge my battery when i turned it on it was stuck at the dual core boot logo. flashing this sbf fixed my brick and the no charging problem but youll be on the earliest firmware for the phone and have to redo all the rooting process. its worth a try and if it doesnt work then send it back.hope this helps.
I no don't think FakeBlurXmppApp.apk is making my phone sod as I've had it twice today its driving me nuts I don't no what's making it happen in another got no apps installed
Root/unlock causes this
I can tell you the issue is caused by either the unlocking of the bootloader or rooting. I unlocked, rooted, and installed a custom rom my 1st stock atrix and had this issue. I also had a hardware defect with the front camera lens so i returned it to stock via sbf prior to returning it. The problem disappeared. My new atrix worked perfect and after a couple days I unlocked and rooted but left the stock rom. Guess what, sleep of death returned, sbf to stock everything is fine. BTW I was using romracers recovery. So Im not sure if its rooting or unlocking or romracers recovery but it is one of the three. Hope that helps.

i also have similar issues. it has some thing to do with deep sleep mode..as long as phone does not go in to deep sleep as son as screen is off the problem never happens.
so i tried wifi wizard and advanced wifi lock apps from market.wifi wizard switches on wifi when ever the screen is on. advanced wifi lock prevents phone from going into deep sleep.you can set a timeout.this works like a charm.i rarely get sod.

Rooting isn't the cause. My first Atrix was rooted & I never had that problem. My second Atrix started right awaywith the SOD, shortly after the OTA update.
And I'm my opinion, unlocking is absolutely necessary. If I hadn't unlocked my previous Atrix so that my backup applications and data syncing would work properly, I would have really been screwed. But every other day my phone backs up my data and once I'm home, uploads out to my home pc.

May be a little premature, but my current Atrix was have SOD & random reboot issues. I had given up & ordered a replacement. However, I changed the screen time out to never & I haven't had a freeze or reboot yet. I'm on day two & I've made a point to turn my wifi on and off. Hope this solves the problem. Guess I'll know if I make it through next week with no freezes.

i bought my atrix within one month of the launch I have always had the sod it has nothing to do with the rom although some roms will make it not happen as much my wife got her atrix like in September and she has never had sod. i just put up with it i plan to leave att once my contract is up
EDIT... reminds me to see if it is up don't remember if its one or 2 yrears
SOD Fix
I was SOD free being rooted, BL unlocked, running rom racers recovery, CM7 then Neutrino 2.6 then my phone decided format its internal partition on me. My phone is back up running now and I was getting the SOD a couple times a day. I fixed it by following 1chris89's fix here. I've been SOD free so far on day two running an OC kernel. 1chris89's fix a bit involved, editing the build.prop file, and based on cm7 flavored ROMS, changing the performance settings. Be careful when messing with the build.prop file and make a backup before attempting! Check out Xploited's guide here for a less involved method to fix your SOD. Hope these help!
OK! But... where can I find this "cm7 performance menu"?

I'm on Neutrino 2.6, to get to it I have to put a short cut on one of my home screens. First long press on your home screen and choose shortcut then choose cyanogenmod settings then choose performance settings.
would if i cannot even get into my phone to change the settings. Can someone with skillz put it into something that i can flash [1chris89's fix]?
it my just be a hardware issue for me also, but i did just get my know back from Motorola with a new screen installed.
When my phone does the SoD I can place a call to it, let it ring a few times, and then hang up. My display turns on and I can get get to the launcher to reboot the phone.
The SoD seems to get worse when I'm using the Bluetooth connection to my Sync system in my truck.
Alright, for those of us who HAVE upgraded, both those who have the problem with screen rotation and not.. Can we collaborate to get this fixed?
My first thought was search the phone for a file with a setting changed somewhere.
I used Fx to search the phone and find things with "rotat" in the name (rotation) and I only got 3.
persist.sys.screen.rotation.Off (value inside = -1)
com.sec.android.smartface.smart_rotation.xml (see value below)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<permissions>
<feature
name-"com.sec.android.smartface.smart_rotation" />
</permissions>
stayrotation.jar (opened and all I see is computer gibberish)
Anyone out there have suggestions? @elliwigy suggestions?
Does anyone have a copy of the first 2 files from 4.4.4 that they can share copies of or post screen shots of for reference?

my rom rotation has been working for me 100% and i flashed stock ota, muniz build and my roms like 10+ times lol dunno how it was before but mine rotates?
Sent from my SM-G900V using XDA Free mobile app
Mine was rotating initially after flashing the rooted 5.0 rom. However, after some debloating, it has stopped working. I'll try troubleshooting when I have access to a PC to flash, but that will be a couple of days.
I finally got home and wiped my phone. I flashed KitKat, re-rooted and then upgraded to Lollipop again. I did a clean install this time and have been slowly adding my apps from the play store and restoring data from Titanium Backup. I have modified my platform.xml for TiBu, installed AdAway and started freezing SDM & KNOX one at a time. So far so good. Let's hope it stays that way. I haven't done any debloating yet.

I have no idea. I flashed Muniz myself, and idk why it won't work.. Weird.
Shouldn't I be able to do a Backup with TiBu and "Factory Reset" to see if it will work?

Same happened to me. I only debloated the verizon stuff and google play movies, books, play music, newstand, hangouts, google+, and nfl mobile. I even cleared davik after but Screen rotation stops working.
I reinstalled the rom again and screen rotation is working again. This time i just froze all the apps listed above with titanium backup and screen rotation is working now. I am afraid to debloat now. I even changed the boot and shutdown animation and shut off start up sound and camera shutter sounds and screen rotation still working
Used to debloat all the same stuff in kit kat. Not sure what the issue is as none of that stuff is OS related so not sure why it affecting the screen rotation.
----------------------------------------------------------
Update!!!!
reinstalled lollipop and used jrkruse debloat zip and screen rotation working and rom is debloated now!
I am on 4.4.4 NK7 and screen rotation isnt working. I debloated too fast to track which one disabled screen rotation.
Stock unrooted and no screen rotation
I received the Lollipop OTA last week. Since the upgrade my screen will not rotate. My phone, Verizon, is completely stock. Never been rooted. Any suggestions?
I figured it out. I knew as soon as I posted I would fix it. I disabled the "Support & Protection" app and voila all fixed.

So I spoke too soon. This worked for a little while and now the screen doesn't rotate again
No screen rotation
Same here after debloating. I noticed you can still rotate the screen in the camera app. I suppose it has nothing to do with the tethering Addon. I also read somewhere that many people without root have been experiencing problems with contacts crashing, so that issue has nothing to do with the process of keeping root. I'm just putting some things out there. I'm not an expert, but root savvy. it has to do with debloating. I'll reroot and debloat one item at a time. Also, what is jrkruse?
I've pretty much established it's a glitch in the lollipop update. My gyro and accelerometer stopped working shortly after I updated. I did a factory reset with no luck, so I odin'd back to 4.4. Gyro working. I go through the updates again and all was good until I got the lollipop update again.
So, I went ahead and rooted and installed a rom based on 5.0. Gyro worked for one day, then crapped out again. I know it's the sensors because I used galaxy tools to test them.
Hopefully it'll annoy one of the amazing dev 's around here and we'll get a fix. After VZW released 2 updates in a week, we all know they won't be in a hurry to fix it.
Same here went back to 4.4 everything works. My Co workers have stock 5.0 and the accell works fine. On a side note my 4.4 rooted s5 is smoother and snapper.
Ok... well, another month has gone by... the bloatware and Stock Lollipop on my Verizon G5 has been getting on my nerves lately...
It seems that Lollipop has serious issues with causing the Battery to overheat and drain too fast. I dealt with these... I got the Lollipop upgrade when it was rolled out, and got the phone a year ago... never rooted it...
So when this screen rotation started last week, I figured it was time to root and use a rom. I ASSUMED it was related to the update... so after doing the research...and downloading an Odin that infected my primary desktop with a nasty virus... I tried to factory reset in recovery mode. This fixed all my problems.. however now, 20hrs later my screen has stopped rotating again... I did debloat some last night and no issues when I went to bed with screen rotation... now tho... Its gone... both the button in the pull down menu and in my settings is telling me that screen rotation is ON... bUT I have nothing working... except my poker game that loads landscape by default...
If there is no fix for this problem.. I will be forced to Odin back, root this phone and then use a rom, just don't have the time for it again.... any ideas? Anyone? Anyone?
Having the same problem after updating. Rotation works in the camera app but nothing else. Any luck finding a solution?
My experience
My Samsung Galaxy S5 screen won't rotate neither. I'm an IT Tech by trade so I did a lot of investigating into this. This seems to be a known issue with Verizon Galaxy S5's, but I have seen complaints from TMobile and AT&T users as well. I've read plenty of quick fix suggestions on numerous sites. Here's what I've done... I did the "figure 8" trick, basically turning the phone over and over in all directions. No luck. I turned the screen rotation button off and on, nothing. I turned the rotation button off, powered down, pulled battery for 30 seconds, powered on, turned screen rotation back on. Nothing. I've wiped the system cache. Nothing. Now here's what's interesting...
I boot the phone in safe mode and still the rotation didn't work. However, when I boot back in to normal mode, all of a sudden it worked! It worked for a good 10 minutes. Then I turned the screen off with the power button (put phone in sleep mode). A few minutes later I got a text so I turned the screen back on, swiped to unlock, and behold, rotation didn't work again. I did the safe mode - to - normal mode cycle again and it worked again, but only until my screened turned off.
I decided it must be a 3rd party app. I decided to back up all my pics and contacts and did a factory reset. My intention was to slowly add my apps back, maybe 1 each hour, until I found the culprit. Screen rotation worked after factory reset, again up until the screen was turned off for more than a few seconds. I installed no 3rd party apps. In fact I didn't even open Google Play Store. The only thing I did was set up the weather/click widget. I powered down and back on (no safe mode involved) and screen rotate worked again, until the phone went to sleep again.
I figured this must be a Lollipop issue, so I flashed the rom back to Android 4.4.4 (KitKat) using oDin. Right from the get go the rotation didn't work. Reboot into safe mode, then normal mode, and behold, rotation worked. Temporarily. Now every time I reboot the phone it'll work for just a few seconds or minutes. It only works if I do a full shutdown, boot in safe mode, then boot in normal mode. I disabled SHealth and a bunch of other preinstalled apps, no effect. The only ones I'm not sure about, or can't disable without rooting, is SysScopeService (or SysScope) and Unified Daemon.
Phone is not rooted, though I'd like to figure out how to do this. Still running Android 4.4.4. So frustrating that I can't text sideways, view pics sideways, or videos. Annoying and yet no one seems to be able to figure this out.
S5 Screen will not rotate
I have the 'exact' same issue with my S5 after updating to 5.0.
- Boot into Safe Mode > Screen rotation not working
- Boot out of Safe Mode > Screen rotation will work until I turn off the screen or it times out..!
I can reproduce this scenario easily and every time. This is definitely a s/w bug.
ARE THE DEVELOPERS EVER GOING TO FIX THIS..? Very frustrating that there are so many issues with Android lately. I've always been an Android fan/user.
Maybe the iPhone is looking good right now

Suddenly have no auto-rotation too. Any ideas - how to fix?
Any solution? I have not auto rotation too. Plis help
Me, too. I wish i knew enough to fix this issue. I have contacted both Verizon and Samsung. Verizon said safe mode, factory data reset, sorry we can't help.
Second verizon guy said try the usb recovery tool. Says it goes deeper than factory reset as it pulls some of the latest OS files from Samsung (i don't know if this is true or not) I will try that tonight.
Samsung offered to replace the motherboard. Sounds like this will be futile as it isn't a hardware issue.
The struggle is real.
I was fortunately able to resolve my issue with a battery pull and restart. Might be coincidence, but the rotation issue started a few weeks after I got a wallet case for the phone. It may be a long shot, but could the magnetic latch on the phone case be a possible culprit to the gyroscope going out?
I have a S8 Exynos version running stock Oreo - No root.
Yesterday I enabled FaceRecognition, just for trying it out, along with Gravityscreen since I wanted an unlocked phone the moment I picked it up. However, It didnt work as expected. I think there is some issue with Gravity screen turning off the screen and back ON.
anyway, the thing is, at one point my phone got stuck beyond redemption. I'm attaching a video, in 7z file, of what was happenning. I couldn't operate the phone at all - couldn't turn it OFF either. I let the battery drain and even upon restart, the problem didnt go away!! Not sure suddenly what triggered the problem! and what the solution is! I should've tried booting to Recovery. But have given the phone to the service center.
Anyone face this?
Try pressing the power off key and volume up for 3 seconds and see if it works bro.
