Im on the latest Frankenstein rom, but Ive tried the latest Bonsai one before this and it did it as well.

Theres others experiencing this as well but I havent found any fixes for it yet, even the apps they recommend dont work for me.

Try Missed Reminder

My configuration:

Start/Stop Service (Check)

Autostart (Check)

Everything else disabled.

Preferences settings for Missed SMS/MMS/Missed Calls/Missed Gmails

Turn the screen on (Unchecked)

Popup (Unchecked)

Vibrate (Unchecked)

Ringtone (Silent)

Blink Led (Unchecked)

Notification Intervals (1s)

Number of repeats (Forever)

I found that by using these settings, it forces the device to keep the LED blinking. I also found that you can then use apps with custom LED settings like Go SMS to change the color and LED blink rate with no problems.

Its always done this. Maybe one day we can get a fix. Sometimes mine works just fine and other times it is very sporadic.

Sent from my Evo Killer!!!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quickstang:
Same here. Always done this from day one. I had a brand new Epic, played around with it, and the LED crap never worked. On that particular phone, the PRL would never update so I took the phone back and got another one. PRL worked fine, and the LED on that phone did the same thing.

I also have the LED to set to keep blinking in Chomp SMS, and it does not work. I have ALWAYS gotten the sporadic LED blinks when I get a message, and then it disappears.

This has happened on the STOCK phone out of the box, as well as with DK28 and Bonsai 2.0.1.

So regardless of the ROM you use, you're still going to be out of luck. Until Samsung can get this fixed...hopefully in the new Froyo build coming out next week, then you are stuck, just like many other people are.

I have not tried that program that was posted by Isira, but you may give it a try and see if that fixes your problem. I tried a program similar way in the beginning and it didn't work.

It's worth a shot though. But Samsung knows its a problem, and that's all there is to it. You're stuck with it, just like me.

UPDATE I just tried the program and so far it seems to work. My SMS is still blinking. Not quite a true second like it is set, but it is blinking. I'll keep testing it, but you may give it a try.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redspeed:
I did try the missed reminder app and messed around with the settings but it still blinked sporadically. On a side note I used the samsung tool to update to EB13 and stock 2.2 and the blinking seems back to normal...

[Optimus 7 General] TheLawTag:
I have googled this issue many times but i seem to be the only person having this problem.

I have an LG E900 and i think its a great phone. Has great apps etc etc and i like to wp7 os.

However, i regularly need to take close up images of small parts for work and it seems i can never get the photo right or the camera seems to have a mind of its own.

I had an iphone 3gs before this - i checked the specs and the LG camera is technically superior - but i never had any issues like this.

Whenever i go to take a photo the camera focuses in on the part, so it looks perfect on screen and then does one of the following.

1 - Flashes and i get a nice white screen

2 - Takes the picture with no flash and i get a black screen

3 - Goes to take the photo and then doesn't.??

4 - Perfectly focused image on screen and then sits there, i go to re-take and it takes the picture quick, giving me a blur.

Sometimes it may take me up to 25 tries before i get a usable image.

Really starting to piss me off, such a pity as when it gets it right, its perfect.

Then some joker walks up behind me with a nokia 5110 and takes a pic, no problem..Grrr - what am i doing wrong??

It doesnt save your settings either - another gripe for another thread
[Optimus 7 General] A Dustman:
I don't have any issue taking close up pictures, if it's too dark it will use the flash, if it's light enough, it won't.

Works fine for me
[Optimus 7 General] mrTablet:
The LG camera IS poor!!!
[Optimus 7 General] kapanak:
Here are a few hints to get a better image. Due to WP7 not keeping your camera settings, you need to set them every time you start the Camera app.

1- Use the the Intelligent Shot options (Smart Scene does a fairly good job) to adjust to your environment,

2- Do not use Beauty Shot unless you are taking photos of people, it doesn't make the photos pretty.

3- There is an Anti Shake option at the end of the camera settings menu...It is basically a software image stabilizer, and works very well.

4- Don't let the phone decide whether to use the flash or not, and set it yourself for sensitive photographs. Brightness settings also help when played around with ( you have to figure out which settings work best in what conditions on your own)

5- Always, ALWAYS semi-press the camera button to let the phone focus and get the white balance...otherwise your photos will look like crap...then take a picture...you need to do this every time.

I sometimes have to "scan" documents and writings on the spot, so with these things kept in mind, you can take fairly decent photographs.

Also, I have done a bit of modification to make the flash better...In my opinion, it is too white. I took a very transparent yellow plastic, and cut it to exact size...it fits in well on the top of the flash (since it is slightly in the phone, rather than flat), and my photos now seem a lot warmer...

I do wish the camera was a bit sharper and had better lowlight performance of course...

PS: And obviously nothing compares to Nokia phones' cameras...well, except the iPhone in some cases...

Greetings XDA-guys! :)

First of all, thanks for all the useful work to tweak Android and support!

I got a few Problems with Rom Manager, no idea left to handle it.

What I've done so far:

Device is rooted, ENG-OFF and HBOOT.

I Installed Rom Manager from Market and flashed 2.5.1.3 of Clockworkmod via fastboot utility.

Clockwork mod was correctly working and shows up in Rom Manager also.

I partitioned the SD via Rom Manager.

I installed Cyanogen 6.

I updated Clockwork to 3.0.0.5 (ace image) via fastboot tool.

I installed Cyanogen 7 (nightly) via Rom Manager.

Actual problems:

1) Rom Manager shows only Cyanogen Roms, nothing more. (Tested with Revolution HD, same problem). This problem persists any time.

2) Rom Manager still shows Clockworkmod 2.5.1.3, but 3.0.0.5 is definitly flashed. I can clearly boot into Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5.

I have really no more ideas left to figure out what happens with Rom Manager. If anyone of you have an idea, please _tell me_ :)

Thanks in advance!

2. Could be an issue with ROM manager itself.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nesrecar:
Does it work with your DHD? If yes, which Rom Manager version do you use?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
1) Get Premium if you want to see other ROM's

2) Flash official 3.0.0.5 via ROM manager, just become available and problem is gone. it was due to no 3.0.0.5 officially available so it identified as latest .
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scorpions602:
i face the same br. while im flashing DHD Ar Rom before i do i already updated my rom manger to v 3.0.0.5 after that i try to flash the rom when everything done the DHD stuck on the whit htc screen .

the only thing that help me to resolve the br. is going back to recovery screen then doing full wipe even for sd then removing batt , back the batt aging and going back to recovery screen as usual pressing volume down with power after skiping fastboot screen i enter recovery screen mount storge card the in ur pc rename the rom that u want to flash it to PD98IMG.zip then send it to sd card and remove the cable and batt ,return back the batt.then turn the power on while pressing volume down to enter fast boot screen /the device will search and install the rom auto..

without any other steps.

i hope that help other who fill down with the new update for rom mang.

sorry for my very bad english

[EVO 4G General] akarol:

Really?? We had been covering cracked screens free with replacement or repair at our store. As of today we don't though.

Yeah a buddy of mine just went through this with Sprint a week or so ago. Bummer though.
[EVO 4G General] gpz1100:
Not covered if you have the accidental damage or whatever sprint calls it coverage? Or you're saying you have to go through assurion and pay $100?
[EVO 4G General] psychopsilocin:
Can I still get mine fixed without insurance for $35?
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Well now every cracked screen has to be replaced through insurance claim with $100 deductible. Pretty much back to how things used to be.
[EVO 4G General] gpz1100:
Hmm... Wonder what sprint is going to do with all the surplus of screens in inventory... Were they losing too much $$ on these repairs?

If you have the right tools (wedges and torx bits), how difficult is it to swap a screen out?
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Its fairly easy. Three or four minutes at the most
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
I'm not really sure I believe this until Sprint says so. That was one of the big points of the warranty change a few months ago, I doubt they would change it back this quick.

[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Lol! Ahhh good times good times...
[EVO 4G General] Quis89:
Its true. According to sprint this is how it should have been. They never intended for it to become a free replacement for cracked screens. But they didn't clarify. They were losing money replacing screens like that.

Well that sucks. Im usually VERY careful with my phone, but a few weeks ago I hada pen in my pocket and forgot about it, and the phone went into the pocket, and came out with a huge scratch across the whole screen. I was putting off going to the sprint store because I've been so busy. So, what you're saying is, if I would have went in last week, I would have gotten a new screen for free (I have TEP), but now, this week it's gonna cost a hundred bucks?
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Yeah pretty much...some stores are still showing some leniency and will do it for you, but policy now says we're not supposed to cover it
[EVO 4G General] 27s:
Yeah...the official word...knowing for sure is :

If you have a crack that is over 1in long

Two or more cracks in the screen.

If any of these are met then you have to call asurion...hense the 100$.

[EVO 4G General] klbjr:
So what you guys are saying is that it is better to have no insurance & just pay the $35 to get it repaired as opposed to sending it off & paying $100. Wish they had that in place when barely a month after release date I dropped my Evo at work getting off a tow motor & shattered my screen. I had to ante up the $100 but they did send me a brand new phone with brand new battery, charger, & SD card. Just like I walked outta the store on June 4.

[EVO 4G General] ramiss:
What Sprint doesn't get is that they gained a customer last week because I hyped up how great their repair policy had become. Now I look like an ass.

I don't need unlimited and Verizon is coming down in price. If they offered a phone with a screen as large as the Evo I would seriously consider moving.

Im not wanting to leave because of this alone but that last straw is starting to bend.
