[SOLVED][Q] Accelerometer Calibration - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i bought this device yesterday, and i found a bug with auto-rotating
for example camera, if i hold it normally all the buttons are rotated to side (like i would shoot horizontally), if i hold the phone horizontally then the buttons are rotated to above my screen.
And it is making me crazy, also i'm on 4.1.2 so there's no accelerometer/horizontal calibration. Any help is needed, how can i fix my phone to work good without taking it to services?
I also looked google for like 1-2 hours, but no hope.. I just got this phone and i don't want to throw it.

SOLVED!!
I downloaded 2 firmwares. 4.0 and 4.1 official ones, I flashed the 4.0, Calibrated the screen with it (the feature was removed from 4.1). After i tried it in 4.0 to see if it works, i flashed back to 4.1. This made my phone stop bugging with auto-rotate and now i have a bug-free mobile! :victory:

screen does not rotate.

Hello friends! It's me again, I have a problem with my i777 screen does not rotate, so sometimes I have q q rotate several times to stay on one side, and then not turn back. I did the wipes required, I downgrade to 2.3.4 and nothing that could be? 4.2.2 worked fine before but suddenly stopped working another!
and calibrate the gyroscope and nothing! Currently I have the rom shoctock 2.5.1,
* nfmw game in the car is going to one side and stay there! maybe help me thanks!​
It's a known 4.2.2 thing that may be a carryover, but I don't know why you wouldn't have rotation if you're back on GB. When I had this problem I flashed back to a 4.2.1 rom and everything was fine. Maybe try that if your in-game rotation doesn't stick.

[Q] Phone not responding to ANY navigation keys

Weirdest issue I've ever come across.
Phone is less than 2 weeks old and was working fine. No hard drops, no water damage. I was running CM 10.1 (3.1.10 Blade Kernal) without issues until today. All of the sudden the capacitive buttons stopped responding. The backlight still comes on.
I flash a recovery to Paranoid Android which I tried out before, still doesn't work. Pie controls work, but on screen navigation buttons don't respond.
In TeamWin Recovery the on screen navigation buttons also don't respond, which is super annoying since I can only do one task, and then have to hard reset my phone.
I did a factory reset and they still don't work. Any idea what's going on here?

As per more experienced developers and contributors - parandroid is a mess (I am not sure whatever that means , since I have so far only tried CM 10.1 & Slimbean... )

Well I first experienced the issue running CM 10.1.
Since then I've relocked it and loaded the stock RUU where things got REALLY weird. The navigation keys still didn't work and soon nothing was really responsive. I can't even get past the unlock screen. The ring bounces when I touch it but it won't drag and unlock. So it's still detecting something, but it's not really responding at all. I can't even turn the thing off now as holding the power button down restarts the phone. what is this i don't even....
bump!
I need help with this and after extensive searching, I haven't found anyone else with this sort of problem.
I'm trying to install a ROM via TWRP but my capacitive and on screen navigation buttons don't do anything, so I'm stuck without a ROM at the moment.

Galaxy S2 ULTRA LAG on wake up

Hello I have a 9100 international version, and this is not your usual 1-2 seconds lag on wake. My phone (well, my friend's) takes around 10 seconds to wake. Not exactly wake but for the display to show, because when I press the home key or power key, the soft keys light up and the phone vibrates to the touch, the screen is also responsive to touch while the screen is off.
All this started after I flashed paranoid android into it, but after trying multiple roms, the issue is exactly the same. I also flashed a pit file to repartition the phone to have more storage for apps and it worked. I mean the phone works flawlessly except for this particular issue of the screen not turning on fast enough, even though the touchscreen seems to be responsive.
Ill flash stock back to it and give it a try. In the meanwhile, any one else have had this issue?
Try Neatrom 6.4 is a stock based with more feautures and battery friendly. Yeah i faced this issue one time, in neatrom 6.4 i never have this issue.

Capactive Touch buttons on Galaxy S2 doesNOT dim or Times out automatically. HELP !!!

The Capactive Touch buttons on Galaxy S2 does NOT dim or goes out automatically & rather radiates a strong touch screen light,even after the "Touch Key Light duration is altered to various intervals (1.5 sec or 6sec)" . The two Touch light only goes off with the Phone's Screen timeout or manually (pressing the power button) .
It was never like this till last week when the Octa-LCD inside my SGS2 broke & today when i changed the complete display assembly of the SGS2, i got to take note of this peculiar & harassing problem only now..which is eating up my mind.What's happening &why? Was the Screen replacement Not correctly carried out (done at my Authorised Samsung Service Centre) HARDWARE problem or is it due to any Software issues? (Samsung Service Centre did say that they did no software job,only just a screen replacement i.e a Hardware job on my SGS2)
i'm Rooted, on JB 4.1.2, Stock Rom with Siyah Kernel !
Though Samsung have offered me to replace my screen for a second time in a few days ( they dont have any more stock of the SGS2 scrren at this branch), but i myself NOT Sure..what's causing the problem ? (Everything in my SGS2 is running fine except this stressful quirk which was Not there before).
.'m at a fix ,please Help me with your advices ASAP !!!!
Have you tried flashing a different kernel like Apolo kernel 4.15b or try an older version of siyah kernel 6.0beta4.
I don't really think it is software problem if it was working perfectly fine before.
HELP my SGS2 !
Thanks @gsstudios for the good advice !
...but is there any app/mod for the SGS2 that can control the capacitive buttons light settings, other than the system settings for the SGS2 like the one> Galaxy Button Lights https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.notquiteinsane.galaxybuttonlights&hl=en (works for SGS6 but not in SGS2)
I'm Not quite a Flashholic,neither do i get much time to tinker around ..so any other quicker way,except flashing a different rom, to control the light settings?
* 1 important thing Maybe ...when my Phone with the "New" screen was booted for the first time, the "developer options" & "adb debugging" were left enabled by me ( to backup my contacts , messages,etc) Could this have any detrimental effect on the capactive button light settings? I have thereafter disabled/enabled those options & rebooted the phone many times but nothing simply changes !
Btw, if all other functions of the phone is Ok ( i checked the phone's sensors with CPU-Z & everything was running fine) & the Screen touch response seems perfectly ok ,then also can this capactive button quirk be the result of Hardware manfunctioning /defect arising from the very New replaced Samsung Octa LCD itself? // I did not install any new apps, nor me,nor "Samsung Service Center" did anything on the Software part of my SGS2 recently //
Currently, only two options for those Capacitive button key lights work :1) always on & 2) always off & i have opted for choice 2 to save the distraction from the glaring/disturbing light of the capactive buttons & mainly to save some battery power !
So,if any body else have a great idea to fix the light quick , i would be immensely thankful to all !
i think u should reflash stock firmware and see if that fixes it.
yeah, Zyfloss, as you said it & i also similarly thought...i reckon the problem has been solved as of now with thë flashing of the SGS2 official Stock JB 4.1.2 Rom,the capacitive lights now seems to be working normal,timing out automatically after 1.5 sec or 6 sec as i want it ! Anyway, Thanks to Everyone who saw my post, tried to help & replied ! :good:

[Q] anyone else lost landscape on home screen while docked?

the subject covers the problem, this happend after mm installed.. was a direct push from sony...
found a couple of threads about turning phone off, then docking then turning phone on. then undock. well now my lock screen goes into landscape kinda nice, but when i swipe up to unlock home screen is in portrait mode. would prefer home screen in landscape while charging. managed to find a app that forces it to work, but does not compress the home screen like the stock lolipop 5.2.1 i think it was, did.
beers
Yeah. This update (570) is as bad as the 5.0.2 build that came without X-Reality. No auto rotation, some sound enhacement features are missing and much more things that keep me from using Marshmallow for more than a full day.
Gee, I thought I was the only one having this issue. Yeah, it's so bad. Even on Facebook when I try to livestream while charging on dock, it's still in Portrait mode.
