Pedrodog, I'm having a similar issue with mine. Its a factory refurb that I got from Sprint when my original one's USB charge port went all wonky. I also get bootloops to the first white splash screen any time my device screen gets too hot (or so it seems) like 100°F+. Any ideas anyone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] pedrodog69:
Mine shuts off completly where I have to turn the phone on via power button. You seem to have a problem with boot loops which may be caused by not wipping properly, a kernel that your phone does'nt like or a wrong setting while useing set cpu or simular.

So question, did you come from a different rom? If so you need to do a full wipe or a factory reset. Are you using a stock kernel that comes with the rom?

Have you read Hipkats guide to all things evo? It should be on the very first page.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evol4g:
Have you by chance tried another battery? I had a friend with a similar issue on the crespo and even though the battery worked fine and got good life he decided to use my spare battery when his phone died and bam no more problems
[EVO 4G Android Development] pedrodog69:
Thanks for the suggestion I happen to have a spare I'll try anything at this point. Its just weird while on a sence for three days and everything was fine as before I had to hit the power button to many times to remember and this time back only a few times. (Shaking head)

What change do I have to make in an apk file to make it auto rotating.

Plz help me.

I want to make Xperia S ICS home auto rotating
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
Someone plz help
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DragonClawsAreSharp:
Post this same question on Serjar's Xperia S Home thread. You will get replies there. As there are more experienced people.

And since you have already opened a thread here, do let us know what solution you find out.

Thanks,

Rick
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] serajr:
Ok... let´s go:

The "magic" is in HomeActivity.smali file, so edit it with notepad++ and look for:

Change 0x5 to -0x1:

With -1 value you´re telling to system that an "unspecified" orientation is set (default), as described in google api:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr.html#screenOrientation
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DragonClawsAreSharp:
Thank you so much. :). Will try it today. I always tried to edit smali files but I could never do it. I could create jar files out of the smali files, and it would make full sense to me, but the slightest change in the smali files would not let me recompile the apk. Now today, I will do it for sure.

Thanks a lot serjar.

Want to ask another thing. How do I go about decompiling apks, whose minimum SDK version is ICS?

Using the available apktool did not do the job for me and also for a few others.

You can please help us?

Thanks,

Rick
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] serajr:
Ok, I´m here to help when you need...

I´m using Apk Manager 5.0.2 with ICS Apktool within \other folder. When changing .smali files, when compiling it delete classes.dex from \keep folder when Apk Manager ask you for.

Does this fix the non rotating home screen?

I'm having problems on my mini pro, even with the keyboard open the home screen does not rotate, every other app etc does though :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] haithamkhc:
Hello Everyone,

i bought my Xperia S two months ago. Unfortunately, i got couple of problems but more importantly a screen problem. The problem with the screen is that the colors were displayed differently. I noticed that the moment i turned on the phone the first time. Although i was using the blue theme, when i go to the Dailer or the system settings or other apps, the colors seem yellowish or maybe brownish they just felt wrong. I could see that clearly when i use my keyboard Swiftkey which i have been using since Xperia Arc. The theme colors of the keyboard are displayed different that what they were on the Xperia Arc. Anyways, i took my phone to the Sony service and repair and they fixed it, they told me that the screen problem was a software problem. i took the phone although i was not convinced that it was totally fixed even though the screen got much better. Later on i met my friend who just bought the Xperia S and when i saw his phone i could clearly see the difference. its hard to explain the difference in words but mine was more of yellowish or brownish and in other words the blue factor was not dominating specially with the theme. His phone screen is has more cool colors where mine was very worm. I don't know if this is part of the yellow tint problem they have been talking but keep in mind that i don't have yellow spots, its just that the colors are displayed differently very worm. I dont know if this is a software or hardware problem. Also another thing i noticed in the display is this weird shade in the colors in some areas on many apps i don't know if it is only me or all Xperia s phones but one thing for sure is that i dont see it on my mom's galaxy s2. i will post the picture down but unfortunately i cant post the pictures regarding the display colors issue because when i take a screenshot, the phone actually captures the actual colors of the system rather than what is displayed so i dont know how i am gonna show what i am talking about. i am thinking maybe i will take a picture of the screen using another phone if the pictures were clear and could show the problem.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Montague:
Hi

First no need to feel bad or sad cause the screen problem youre describing is not a problem at all. Its called warm screen(or something like that). Its totally normal in high end device nowadays, go google some topic about some samsung device or htc or any high-end smart phone and you will see its common. As long as you dont see the yellow tint than there is no need to worry about. My xperia s got the same yellow-ish warm screen just like you(and a yellow gradient at the very bottom). and my sister got one thats appeared to be normal, or some people will describe them as "cool" screen.

And believe me there are many people who got the warm screen version, some just dont care about it some just cant tell or didnt notice at all

Its a hardware version thats normall causing this, go to dial and put in *#*#7378423#*#*

go to service info and check the firmware of your screen. It should be touch firmware 6,

This firmwre 6 is believed to be a revision after the yellow tint devices are reported

But it depends on your luck though, i know a lot of people got version 6 screen but has a normal white screen on their device
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] haithamkhc:
Hello buddy thank you so much, finally I know what the he was up with the screen now it makes sense. I can finally rest and not worry or feel that bad that I payed 600$ for thins phone although i prefer the cool screen. The I checked what your told me and it's the firmware version 6. Honestly I wanted to flash my phone to ics but I thought it's better to wait until it's done from the Sony repair Centre, and but after I read your comment I said "what the hell" I could live with that screen. So I didn't take it to the repair store. I instead, I I flashed my phone with ICS and I am lovvvinggg it, it's so delicious I can't spot tasting it. I and quess what..? The color shading problem that I talked about actually went away with the ICS update and I am grad it. I wanted to post screenshots of what I was talking about the but I keep getting error when uploading the pics so i uploaded the on drop box. I you can see the screenshots before and after. so ANYWAYS THANK YOU,
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Montague:
one more thing is that you can find some app to tune the overall color of the screen, like an app called adjust your screen, they have instruction of how to make your warm screen looking normal. I personally do like using the app although people say it consume battery, I haven't noticed any changes in the battery at all (I still get about 15-19hrs a day in average).

weird though the warm tone should not be changing in anyway even flashing or doing soft-toning of the phone cause its the hardware that is causing the problem, but like i said these color preference is always depends on people so I am glad you now feel oky for your screen like i do
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] haithamkhc:
I didn't mean the warm tone that was fixed. Oh god my English is bad. I I meant there was another problem other than the worm tone. I dont know how to explain it. I I wanted to post pictures but the forum is giving me errors both on my phone and my laptop I don't know why, but it says contact the administrator!! The forum doesn't even allow me to post the pictures from drop box I don't know why. The other problem I was talking about was related to how many apps on my phone show blurry or unclear shading. you won't understand until you see the pictures. I also I couldn't find the app yo were talking about, there is this app call Screen Adjuster, is this what you were talking about?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Montague:
Your English is fine, its just about me misunderstanding what youre talking about

Yes that one sorry i just couldnt recall the name

And yes maybe you should find a way to show us the pictures so we can all take a look
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] haithamkhc:
This is the shading problem I was talking about which got fix with the ICS update. Pictures before and after! And BTW I found the app, its exactly what I needed. Thank you so much,! Now I can rest in peace and enjoy this lovely phone
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] oka1:
To all in this forum. So many have had complaints about so many things to put that statement in perspective Here is a brief list:

Graying pixels (triangles)

Black not true

Color wash out

Color Rendering issues

Emmc Bug

S-Pen Issues

Tablet Mode jacked

Battery Drain Issues

These are the common ones, but you get the idea. What we as moderators really Hate is ALL THE COMPLAINING you throw at the following people......ChainFire, SuperCurio, Flappjaxx, Dagr8, M3dd0g, Sixstringsg, Dr Ketan, NeoBuddy, CM Team, AokpTeam, Gerret, xplodwild, Eybee1970....any all the others I cannot think of right now...(let me know who I missed and Ill add)

The majority of these issues are SAMSUNG hardware issues, a few are not. Stop Telling the Devs about these issues TELL SAMSUNG.......complain to them...and here's how...

The Idea:

I am going to try this and hopefully get everyone's support and contributions. What I am proposing is to post the Samsung issues here in a post and a brief description of what it is and what it is not doing.

Then, I will merge the real Samsung related issues into the 1st and 2nd post so they are itemized clearly. After a few days....

THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART.... I then want all of you in this forum to Tweet the link to this thread to @Samsungmobile..... stating fix these issues Now, or we look to buy something else than Samsung.....

This works, my friend S15274N started #neveragain Samsung when they did not provide timely updates (2.1 to 2.2)... we got their ear. Samsung does not bad press on this Unit especially because they are going to release TMO version on 7-11-12....... So let's kick'em now and get some of their engineers to help us instead of beating on our dev's.

To Recap:

1. Post what you believe to be Samsung hardware/software issues

2. We will merge these into a cohesive/concise list

3. We barrage them with complaint tweets with the link to this thread.

Here is the link to this Thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=27812352#post27812352

Let's do this it's worth a try and we can direct our frustration towards the correct culprits Samsung.

Thanks, Oka1
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] oka1:
The List

Known Bugs/Problems

1. Emmc Bug

2. Color Rendering issues

..........A-Banding in Video recording/playback

..........B-Black clipping in videos

..........C-

3. Post Source code for ICS when you release ICS.

4. Provide a "Known and Resolved" bug list that you are presently aware of

5. Battery overheating

6. Hang and FC on Low DPI settings

7. MMS would not send/receive if Data Packet is not enabled. Previously in GB (Galaxy Note only) it was able to do so. I really hope that Samsung fix this issue for all its Android phones.

8. Samsung changed between GB and ICS raised kernel resume time from 650ms to 1000ms - just for the kernel to resume

Desired List:

1. Touch screen adjustment

2. Improve camera software too much banding in lowlight

Awesome a n7000 user union.

UNITE!

Missing traceability with partial wakelocks and what's really draining your battery. Statistics in native app are tainted/incomplete plus offer no real value in analyzing. Its like a Dilbert comic dashboard, useless.

Varying screen quality, maybe due to drivers : the banding issues with movies

Slow update speed. Samsung kept delaying ICS

ICS not as intended implemented, slow, battery inefficient and has lags.

No low dpi support on native launchers

Low Volume issues on speaker and ringer

Missing exchange contact search functionality

Missing control for apps permissions, like pdroid and lbe

Missing firewall

Missing touchscreen sensitivity setting

Crap update policy. Just make one good rom and not 50+ crap ones per region, per carrier. This will increase update speed, quality too

Missing wipe dalvik cache option
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] darthvedor:
The whole idea of choosing Android (in particular Galaxy Series) over iPhone was the ability and ease of flashing firmwares and exploring new horizons. However the EMMC bug is limiting this very activity. Moreover we paid for the premium devices such as Note and millions of these have be sold all over. The EMMC fix should certainly be on TOP most priority. Hope Samsung will be considerate enough to consider this request. Else we all will be forced to re-evaluate our faith in SAMSUNG.

PS:

It hurts to know that google was aware of EMMC issues since 2008 and still SAMSUNG planned to go ahead with faulty chip. Surely Samsung does owe an explanation in-case they fail to find a fix in time!!!

The biggest issue I have right now with the phone is the EMMC bug. This needs fixing ASAP.

The was my first Samsung and at the rate Samsung are going, then it's going to be my last !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Higgsy:
Black clipping in videos is the biggest issue for me, having to use a app to adjust the contrast thus losing true blacks is not good.

I also believe there is an issue with how flash player works in stock ICS ROMs, Very jerky performance in browser, I don't think it is 100% Adobes fault as I have friends with other devices (Eg HTC Sensation) running ICS 4.0.3 stock ROMs and their playback is silky smooth.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bigstarrynight:
Not really. Its all down to quality control, programming and who made the device components. You will see lots of satisfied guys with fully functioning devices, BUT, there are an awful lot like me in the same boat. BTW I don't root or use anything not served up by Samsung, that way I protect my warranty and leaves no room for manoeuvre for the retailer or Samsung.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eazy103:
Top of my list is:

1 Black clipping in videos

Its just NOT acceptable that a phone in this price range and with this specs. cannot play (random) video without this terrible artifacts.

It doesnt deliver what is promised. (in the commercials )

Even my 3 jear old HTC plays video a lot better.

If its not fixed in the near future i think i will go for a refund because i really feel cheated by samsung because of this problem and their way of (not) supporting it.

2 EMMC bug.

3 the overall way that samsung deals with this bugs and the people/customers who report them.

Please step up samsung!

i can wait for a stable ics.

BUT BLACK CLIPPING come on samsung... please fix it...its damn ugly...people look at this phone as if its some heavenly artifact..thank God i dont let em watch dark videos, they will just scoff at me saying ' 30,000 bucks for this?'..i'm sorta asking myself that question now...it's advertised as if it has the best screen on the market and yet it shows greys so badly and pictures taken in the dark are so ugly with purple blotches..premium smartphone? dont think so!!
