Hello! I have been observing for the past few weeks how the accelerometer on my device stopped working after i flashed a jellybean rom. The curious thing is that if i installed any other rom (sense or non-sense ICS or GB) my accelerometer started working perfectly.

So i followed a few recomendations from other users who told me to use Aahk and return to full stock then re-root flash recovery and flash jb rom.

I did that and guess what everything was fine until today when i switched from a sense 4 rom back to jb and the problem with auto rotate was back.

I am not a dev but something in the sense 4 rom is killing the accelerometer for any/all jb roms flashed afterwards ( yes i have wiped everything 3x even with ARHD superwipe script)

And now the good part, i was experimenting today to see how i could get back accelerometer functionality without going through aahk re-stock procedure and i found a way:

1. Download this stock rooted rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1382235

2. Put it on your sd card , reboot in recovery , wipe everything except sd card (obviously) and install it

3. Let it boot at least once, go through initial setup, reboot recovery wipe everything, and now you are ready to flash jb with working auto rotate

P.S. to reboot in recovery with stock rooted rom you have more options ( no advanced power menu)

1, From adb : adb reboot recovery

2. Download quick boot from playstore ----> https://play.google.com/store/search?q=quick+boot&c=apps

3. Pull battery out then put it back in keep volume down and power buttons pressed until you enter bootloader from here navigate to recovery and you are done.

I hope i am right. I had but only one dhd to test.
[Desire HD General] snakx:
don't work for me :s

have test with this stock rom (full) and super stock rom 3.20 from inspire 4G thread;

i have a DHD.

with hboot 0.85 it work (before have hboot 2.0 from aahk)

[Desire HD General] lastspartan09:
Doubt it has to do with the rom you had installed before, but it has to do with the kernel etc. Have not checked the link you posted above but I am certain you have tried the JellyTime Rom and it is true that the accelerometer does not work. However, jellybean is still more than anything still new at best to our device and it will take time for it to be fully stable, taking into the account that HTC never had plans on upgrading us to JellyBean
[Desire HD General] bondocel:
It has nothing to do with kernel, flash a sense 4 rom and then a jb rom , any jb rom ( paranidandroid for examlpe) and the auto rotate doesn't work and you can change kernels and the auto rotate doesn't work
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Just to clarify things... There is a cahce partition in our phones (Im not talking about Dalvik Cache)

The data in this cache partition won't be erased even with a full wipe.

When you install a JB rom, you CAN have conflicts in it ( not all users experince this ... )

So the only way , was to use the RUU, because the process it is using include wiping this cache partition ....

However , the cause of this conflict is still unkown , even if one day , if i rememeber, Synergy pointed out that the problem had to do with the upstream in custom JB roms.
[Desire HD General] qazsxdcfv:
Shiiittt, i have only stock RUU sense 2.1 and arhd 6.3.3 can i do this because i try arhd it doesnt work .. :(

Have had this bug, too. Now it works. Thank you
[Desire HD General] bondocel:
The first time i returned to stock i used aahk and i fully returned to stock ( s-on ) and then i rerooted and flashed recovery but with the help of the aahk devs i realized that i didn't have to go full stock actualy you don't even have to use ruu you just need a stock rooted rom zip to flash in recovery and allow it to run once.

This is easy to do just flash it like any other rom in recovery let it power on and let sense start then reboot recovery and flash jb and you have working accelerometer and auto-rotate
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
First point, returning to stock doesnt mean you are making your device S-on again

Second point, I did not say that your solution isnt working.. It is just that it did not work for everyone (see my thread)

Third point, Accelerometer is stil working on JB even if your auto rotation doesnt work... The proof ??? you can use manual rotation with an application form the PlayStore( unfortunatly, I forgot its name)
[Desire HD General] bengalli:
Bingo ! :good::good:

Thank you very much...
[Desire HD General] bondocel:
The accelerometer in my case didn't work at all on jb roms. I have tried, exactly as you suggested using andro sensor from play store, and my accelerometer was on a gray background and nothing was changing in read values as i tilted the phone. But from what i have heard it is also a radio related issue plus that pesky cache partition.

But i'm sure that the devs will figure a out an easyer way my friend.
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Mysteries ... :D There are still a lot of mysteries

Anyway, the important is that we can use auto rotation again whatever the solution is....

However, I hope too that devs will figure out what is the real culprit even if I see this as not being their priority for now

From LG, the Android 2.3.3 is the latest update. If you want to use rom (custom android) made from the devs here, you have to install a custom recovery. Search, read and understand the benefits and dangers of this...

The clockworkmod is the easy way to install custom recovery, but may brick your phone (because it download the file, but don't verify if it is complete) and then you must use the others method.

Hi

in your opinion if I put the 0.587 Semcphone.apk in the build 0.431, can I get rid of the dialer lag ?

Please, someone can upload it ?

I think is only app related, there should be no problems in other parts of the system.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
There is no noticeable difference in. 587 phone app as well....

Just some changes in looks I guess that's all

You could use app like ex dialer to get rid of that lag
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] SSyar:
dude.. put a clean install of 0.587 and see the difference
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
If that's for me....

There is a huge range of games from racing to shooting. You can also root and install custom ROMs if you are bored of your current one. You should actually go and search about user reviews instead and not posting a thread here. But yeah, S2 is great I have been using it for a year now.

You might not like the same things others like. Instead of asking people for help in thinking, why don't you download some games/apps/whatever from the Play Store and try them out yourself? That way you can form your own opinion. (if you are capable of doing so)

[Motorola Atrix HD] themare:
Hi, I received an unlock code and I followed the directions.

I put in my T-Mobile sim card and started my Atrix HD. When it finished loading, it went to this grey background screen that asked for the unlock code with either option of "Enter"ing or "Dismiss"ing. I inputted my code, and pressed Enter to unlock it. After that, the two options disappeared as well as the bar for entering the code, but stayed on that same grey background screen with nothing but that and the time, signal strength, battery life, etc. on the top of every android. About 5 seconds later, my phone picked up T-mobile and was finally unlocked (I was getting texts, etc), but it was still on the grey background screen. I've been waiting for over 2 hours now, and it is still stuck on the grey screen. I have tried pressing the home button, the back button, and the tabs button, but none of them does anything and stays on the grey screen. I am able to turn the screen off and on and adjust the sound with the physical buttons, and everything works at the locked screen. When I try unlocking the screen, opening the camera, opening the phone or text, it all goes back to the grey screen. Also when I try turning off the phone with the physical button, no option of powering off appears on screen, it just stays on the grey screen.

Help! How do I get rid of this grey screen. I have not tried restarting because I do not know how to restart the phone without being given the option by pressing the power button. I've held the power button, but that did nothing.
[Motorola Atrix HD] themare:
Solution

Nevermind! I found the answer to own question. Since the lock screen still works, I just went to the lock screen and without unlocking the screen, I pressed the power button and the power off options appeared on the lock screen. So I was able to restart my phone that way. The grey screen is gone after I restarted. Hope this helps.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Aman27deep:
Yes, i faced the same thing and had to reset phone!
[Motorola Atrix HD] marcelarr:
How did you reset?

Im encountering the same problem after entering an unlock code... except that I do not have acces no any other options on my phone.

I introduced the unlock code and now I have a grey screen...

Any ideas?
[Motorola Atrix HD] Abu-7abash:
Just press the power button once (without holding it) like you're locking the phone. The screen will turn black, now press it again, you'll see the lockscreen now press and hold the power button till you see the power off option coming up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
Devs, please specify on your flashing instructions for users of CWM 6.0.x.x and above, that TDJs superwipe and cache wipe script will break CWM. TDJ never removed the fixes he included in the script for CWM 5.0.2.7 and they are the root of the issue of the recovery breaking when using the scripts with CWM 6.0+. They are only meant for CWM 5.0.2.7 AND TWRP 2.2+ and people do not know this. As you may or may not know using these on any version of CWM other than 5.0.2.7 BREAKS THE RECOVERY!!! The forums are piling up with people complaining about broken CWM installations.

If you wish to continue using TDJ's wipe scripts, Flash TWRP 2.3.1.1, which you can DL here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qibb4qrp4zdc76a/TWRP-2.3.1.1-hercules.zip

or visit the TWRP 2.3.1.1 in it's own thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1768742

For users of CWM 6.0+, please refer to and use the flashing instructions provided within this thread instead of using the wipe scripts:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1926754

They work the exact same way whether you're on CWM or TWRP.

A few pointers..

-Please stop fixing permissions and cache wiping after flashing a ROM. This is only necessary if you're having issues with the ROM AFTER you have installed it.

-IF you are using any of TDJs ROMS ONLY use CWM 5.0.2.7 OR TWRP 2.2+. His ROMS automatically flash the aforementioned superwipe script, causing reboot hangs. The only method to fixing the reboot hang is to flash TDJ's Cache Wipe and this breaks CWM's ability to flash ANYTHING correctly. Forcing the user to have to ODIN back to stock.

The forums are getting cluttered up with people having issues that can be completely avoided if the specifics are stated within your flashing instructions.

Instructions have been edited and specified further upon to avoid further confusion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mataflakitas:
good info...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:
Flashable wipe scripts are made by many different devs on multiple devices. Most of the time the superwipe scripts do a better job between rom flashing .. to be honest even though its not needed it is a convenience for some. I use a superwipe script on my wife's sensation all the time between flashing .. I'd say if the script breaks the recovery then the recovery is borked...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:
I think the info is good to put out there, but the thread title and the way you worded this needs to be edited.. I mean your not a dev and i mean this in a nice way.. you don't get to tell them what they should and should not do.. just sayin..

AND the cache wipe/ fix perm script was made because CWM wasn't doing it correctly. Yes that is correct..

The Superwipe was made for yes the same reason, however its also to make sure that all of the partitions get wiped and aligned correctly before a flash... just like every other superwipe for every other phone (there is many many of these scripts..)... still relevant and useful..

Bottom line is newer versions of CWM apparently doesn't play well with these kinds of scripts.. and that to me is an issue with the recovery..

HOWEVER ya'll should stop arguing over this, it makes you bolth look a bit childish and petty..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Papa Smurf151:
Alrighty then...I have done a full sweep of this thread. No more fighting whats so ever. Digital bliss everyone is entitled to their own opinions...that does not mean you can voice them without getting lashed at. RushAOZ...not everyone is having this issue obviously but the thread is a great reference to those that are.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:
Oh.. btw.. fixing perm and wiping cache is a good idea after a rom flash... your giving bad Info here.. It insurers that there is not going to be anything in your dalvik cache that could conflict. And doing fix fix permissions just makes sure that everything is set and aligned correctly. If anything it 100% does not cause issues and is recommended ...

You should really take that out of your post
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
Sorry, but that's absolutely unnecessary and actually does cause issues.

To do these steps after the ROM has loaded and has been under use causes no issues and does fix any issues you might have. For example I just flashed cm10 nightly from fresh. After I had completely set up my phone and installed and restored app data I noticed my phone was charging extremely slow. Fixed permissions and everything's in order now. But wiping cache and fixing permissions immediately after flashing, without loading the ROM up is pointless. Once your ROM is flashed after initial wiping all files are set in place and ready to go as the developer intended. Wiping caches and fixing permissions right after ROM intallation might offset the original boot sequence and cause issues.

Look at hate410s post for proof of this. He took these same steps, and a few more unneeded ones and he can't get a stable install to save his life.

If you wipe properly or run TDJs wipe gets the phone ready for any ROM installation and if done correctly will install the ROM as the developer intended. If you have issues up initial boot after wiping correctly, chances the flaw lies in the ROM itself. If that makes any sense. Its only logic.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:
Lmao.. NO.. I'm not going to argue with you.. but your wrong and spreading miss information.

A uid mismatch fix, commonly referred to as a fix permission just makes sure the permissions are set correct.. it can't mess up anything..

and depending on what you have flashed and if you have or have not factory reset doing a cache wipe will ensure there will not be any conflicts in your dalvik cache.. also can't mess up anything..

I think you really should learn what these thing are and what they do before you make comments about them.

The fact that you think there is special things that can be messed up on first boot shows your lack of knowledge.. yes devs can have scripts run at boot, for example a zip alignment .. however regardless of if you did or did not do a wipe and fix perm these things will still run, they are just boot scripts.. lmao..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:
Doesn't say aborted for me... and I'm using twrp.. it does a permission fix with no issue..

And its been a recommended step since the G1.. but do what ya want..

Either way telling people not to do it or a chache wipe is still spreading bad information ..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
First of all there's no need to get riled up. I've been on these forums and flashing phones since 2008. I think I know a thing or 2 about it.

As far as everything you said that could go wrong, to me is easily avoided with a full formatting of your partitions. If you have a clean canvas to work with, you should have 0 errors in your install. Unless the ROM itself has any flaws of course. And if that's the case you shouldn't be flashing it.

Well to each his own. I make these decisions based on the fact that I've owned about 7 android phones and not one developer or flash instruction I've read called for an immediate cache wiping and permission fix as soon as your ROM is installed. Not my G2, Epic 4g, GSII, Nexus S 4g, Evo 4g, Evo 3d, and the plethora of other phones L

I've flashed for people which include a Galaxy Nexus, Epic Touch 4g, Vibrant, GSIII and an international Galaxy S2.. Only on this phone.

And the reason I say it's unnecessary is because I'm one of those people that NEVER have issues except issues that are already established by the developer in the op.

I've flashed every ROM in this forums, using my flash instructions (which really aren't mine, it's just the old fashioned, right way to wipe) and every ROM has worked flawlessly with no freak errors.

To me, just making sure that you've properly formatted all your partitions is all the ROM needs to install and work as intended.

And it's been working like a charm for me since 2008. Take my word for it or not. But like I said. A simple, proper wipe is all you need to for a ROM to install error free. Look at my post history. You'll find 0 posts having to do with any issues that I'm not already supposed to have. I was even one of those people that haven't had an RR or SoDs since CM10 nightlies released. But like I said, to each his own.

Btw boot loops are one of the common issues people get when wiping cache and fixing permissions without letting the ROM boot up for the first time. You can find plenty of those in the TW rom threads.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
01. Download ROM (Link is Below)

02. BACKUP ALL APPS with preferred method (ie: Rom Toolbox, Titanium, My Backup, etc..)

03. Place ROM on ROOT of your SD card. (ie: /sdcard)

04. Boot into Recovery Mode

05. Do a NAND BACKUP!!!

06. Flash DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE (OPTIONAL - ROM will do this by default)

07. Flash an ICS ready radio (Links below)

08. Flash ROM.

09. After flashing is complete, Reboot...

10. Let device sit for 10min without touching, then reboot.

11. Done!

These are flashing instructions from TDJ himself. Not only did he have the most popular rom for the T989 (with his Evolution v8 thread having more than 1.2 million views...) but he's widely considered the best dev this phone has ever had. Not only that he's not a new guy and has been around since the mytouch days. I don't see any instructions in there about wiping cache and fixing permissions immediately after ROM installation, do you?
