[Q] [ROM] [4.2.2] [1/7/13]Notifications light semi lock tablet - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an 80 G9 non turbo,
I "successfully" installed this rom,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2104491
Everything works fine except notifications,when an app that uses the notification light pushes a notification,the power light starts flashing the notification plays its sound and displays on screen.
However i cannot dismiss the notifications,i cannot pull down on either side of the screen,the notifications bar basically stops working and after a few seconds the notifications bar,the app drawer,everything except the icons/folders i had on screen disappear.
If i press the power/standby button,the screen shuts off like normal,the notifications keep going off,but i cant turn the screen back on,eventually the tablet powers itself off,when it turns back on it boots to twrp,If the notification gos off while in standby,the sound gos off the light flashes,but i cant turn the screen on.
I have tried different apps,and apps that dont use the notification light dont do this to the tablet,its only the apps that use the light,gmail,alarm clock extreme,so on and so forth.
This has rendered my tablet pretty much useless,so any advice would be much appreciated,or more stable rom recommendations,id prefer to stay on the 4.2 roms,but id rather have everything working.

my trackball light keeps turning on and off...

my trackball light keeps turning on and off, even in standby mode... is there a way to turn it off? or is this normal with the phone?
Hi,
The flashing trackball means you've had a message, email or a missed call. You get a little icon in the top left of your screen with a red squiggle on it. When you've turned your phone on, put your finger at the top of the screen and sweep downwards and your notification screen will appear. This should tell you what event, message or call you've missed, or is waiting for you.
Hope this helps. It is a bit confusing at first.
Sometimes, even after I've completed reading all my unread texts/checked missed calls list, the trackball remains flashing for a period of time (like say 10 minutes) and then stops flashing.
Only way to stop it it so bring down the notifications panel and hit 'clear notifications'.
Its a bug.
my mate with an orange one had this, but it turns out he had set up the MAIL application (NOT Gmail) for his hotmail and turned notifications off, so it flashed, but no top bar notification or sound was played.....

I would actually love the option to have the trackball light to pulse indefinitely until notifications are cleared. I reckon its damned sexy!
Just a shame it can't do multi-coloured light :<
Mine will keep blinking until i take down the notifications panel, even tough its clear and i.e message is read. But it "cures" the blinking instantly.
Mine is doing the same thing, blinking for roughly 10mins but dissapears if open and close notifications even if blank.
Is this a bug only in the Orange rom ?

[Q] Screen shuts off only in applications

I have a sprint Samsung Galaxy S3, rooted...Int he past week or 2, whenever I am in an application (Chrome, Yahoo, GTalk, etc) The screen will sometimes randomly shut off. It just goes black, i can still touch and use whatever app I was in (I can hear the sounds of clicks, etc) and the buttons stay lit on the bottom. When I press the lock button it makes the lock noise. When I then unlock it, i get to the lock screen with no problems. If I unlock into whatever app I am running, the screen will almost immediately shut off again, or sometimes after a few seconds, or sometimes it waits until i touch the screen. BUT, if I unlock into a system app (messages, phone, homescreen, etc) the problem doesnt happen.
I have tried adjusting all the display settings for screen timeout, rebooting, battery out, killing services, etc and nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?

are you on stock ROM? if not it may be a problem with your ROM
try a reset and flash ROM again or flash another ROM

[Q] Why the phone freezes when trying to unlock?

I've been experiencing for some time now some random freezes when trying to face-unlock the phone. When pushing the power button to wake the phone, it displays the unlock screen but the box in the screen where your face (or whatever the front camera catches) blacks out, while the rest of the screen is normal (I can see the clock, the notification bar and the emergency call), also the leds for back and menu light up. And the phone justs stays like that, all the leds lighted up and the screen on. The home button doesn't work and the power button only works if I hold it down (it powers down / restarts the phone).
This has happened to my phone from some time ago, its purely random and it always happens when I try to unlock the phone. I haven't had any issues while using the phone nor strange bootloops or sudden reboots. I'm currently on stock XXEMB5 with Speedmod Kernel k2-13 and some apps removed, mainly yahoo widgets and some Samsung apps (I think I just removed all the hubs: game hub, social hub, etc...).
I red the bad eMMs symptoms, but it doesn't seem to be the same. If I had to guess, I would say its something with the camera, but right now I don't know for sure... Anyone has any idea where could be the problem?
Favourite culprit would be a non-standard kernel, wipe the phone and return to fully stock to test.
Your collection of mods and custom changes to rom are probably unique, if it doesn't freeze when stock then add changes one at a time until it happens again.

[Q] Screen turns on Popup [Slimbean 3.10]

Hi,
my screen will turn on every time the popup "pops up" even though the "Screen On for Popup" is NOT checked.
I tried several notification apps, so I guess it must be the Rom that makes it.
The screen shouldn't go on at all but it does.
The biggest problem is it kills my LED notification as it stops blinking after the screen turns on.

Lock Screen hidden Notification draw hidden when turning tablet on

Hi All
I am running CyanogenMod version - 12.1-20160529-NIGHTLY-klimwifi
Kernel version 3.4.105g766de8b
I have as you can tell by my heading an issue, my tablet after using the plex app decided to power off and would not restart until I tried turning it on in recovery mode. When it did turn on the lock screen did not display the usual text (swipe to unlock) and the notification drawer would not display or pull down.
I tried cycling it on and off a few times and alternating between turning it on in recovery or download mode but no response, eventually allowed me to access the notification drawer and by creating a new profile I could access everything again. I deleted this profile just to make sure and tried it again and discovered the if I hit the volume buttons a few times everything works fine the tablet though has become slower in its response.
Has anyone else come across this issue.
