Hey guys, I'm new to posting, but I've referenced the site alot. Anyways, I rooted using unrevoked 3. Ran fresh by flipz for a couple weeks, then evio 2, all is well until now. Decided to download cyan 6 stable, thought it was awesome, but I like variety. Switched to fresh, no backlighting on the 4 bottom UI "buttons." I've unrooted my phone, wiped the SD, factory reset, re rooted, downloaded a rooted "stock Rom" and I still can't get the lights go come on unless I'm running c6. I'm losing it so if anyone knows what or where I went wrong, please post ASAP! Thank you so much in advance! I hope its something simple since I've gotten so many hours in over one problem. Ps. I'm a night owl, its 5:45am. So I definitely miss the backlighting lol. Thanks again.

I also just noticed the proximity sensor isn't working so when I make phone calls the screen stays lit. So frustrating. All bc of the settings in cyan. I'm so lost.

Anything guys? I don't want to only have cyan for a for a Rom, and its heat don't get me wrong, like I said I like variety. Help out if you can.

Did you make sure to do a full wipe before going from cm6 to fresh? Going between a sense and asop rom usually requires a wipe
Yes. I went through the entire unrooting process again last night, installed a rooted factory Rom. Latest ota. Even the stock Rom didn't function correctly after full wipe factory reset and deleting all contents on my SD. I'm running Cyan until I find a fix bc it is really annoying. By full wipe. I use clockwork latest. Wipe data, factory reset, and Cache. And then advanced wipe dalvic. Am I missing something?

Thanks for the effort this far. I just can't believe nobody but me has this problem. Cyan 6 has the on screen power widget. By default. I tried leaving that the same and flashing to fresh, tried to go into Cyan settings, all the lights are set. To zero by default, so I put those at 255 and wiped and flashed fresh, and other Roms still no lights or proximity sensor??

Try flashing again, but this time use amon ra instead of clockwork to wipe and flash. See if that helps.
Sent from my blah blah blah blah
Ok. I can install recoveries from clockwork through amon?e
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
No - there's the rub. But you can switch to amonra to wipe and flash just to resolve this issue, and then switch back to clockwork once its loaded. If you go this route, do a nand backup with amonra first, so you can restore in case something goes wrong with the initial flash.

Going through the process right now. Thanks and I'll let you know the results. This has been a 3 day headache. Cyan is cool, but I like to switch to sense occasionally. C6 is nice, and i can't complain bc its hard work for free. I am at a loss. I just did all of the above you instructed, same result, so I wiped and flashed again just to see what would happen, still no bottom lights or proximity sensor!!! Losing my mind. Any other suggestions please lmk, I'm checking this every 5 minutes lol. Thanks for trying. I've googled this and found no similar issues either. Sucks.

ok - as long as you're sure that you wiped all three in amonra and it still didn't work I have another option for you. I'm not a dev, and I'm not familiar with any recent builds of CM, but I am familiar with an app called Tasker. I've tested a few Tasker profiles that when set up, will monitor the proximity sensor and turn the screen off when it senses something (like your face) is close, and another profile that will turn the capacitive buttons on and off depending on the ambient light levels.
You would need both the tasker app and the locale execute plugin. Are you familiar with Tasker? You can get a 7 day free trial from their website here, and the locale execute plugin free from the market. If you want to give it a shot let me know, and let me know how familiar you are with setting up tasker profiles (so I know how detailed my instructions should be), and I'll spell it out for you.
This should work, unless your prox sensor and cap buttons are completely broken.
I have no experience with tasker profiles at all, so if you don't mind giving specific details I'm willing to try it out!
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
dammit - things always seem much simpler in the middle of the night. The proximity profile isn't working right. It will turn off the screen fine, it just wont turn it back on - it would have to be turned on manually (if thats ok for you though let me know).
Try this app though - it simulates the way the proximity tool works, except instead of turning of the screen based on proximity sensor, it puts a black box over the entire screen whenever you're on a call (so you don't press anything by accident), and you long press a button to get rid of that black screen.
I'm testing the other profile now - the one for the capacative buttons. Now that I'm more awake I want to be sure I didn't miss anything there either.
edit - ok, I'm an idiot and I need to stop making claims when I'm tired. For the capacitive buttons, the profile will turn them on when it's dark, and turn them off when it's light, but I can't seem to get it to time out - so they'll always stay on when it's dark. I'm pretty sure I can set up a toggle widget to turn them on and off, though - let me know if you want to go that route.
Sorry about this - didn't mean to be so lame.
That's pretty much the way I have Cyan setup. Have to click the lock button to turn my screen off, and the lower 4 button lights only go off when I turn off the screen. So off, so yeah just send them when you can buddy. Thanks again.

I cant imagine I'm going to have to restore this to factory and then return it, with all the other guys bouncing from rom to rom with no trouble. Somebody has to know what setting I shouldn't have changed? Please help guys. This Evo is my life. You guys no how it is
Sorry I haven't been able to get that workaround going for you, but there's a thread in themes and apps where somebody posted a gscript script to toggle the capacitive buttons on and off. It's much simpler than what I was going to set up, and unlike tasker, gscript is free.
for the proximity part, if that app didn't cut it for you, the tasker profile would have worked like this - and you only need tasker for this, not that locale execute app.
1. Hit new, and give the profile a name like proxoff and hit ok.
2. go into the state options and select proximity sensor. Hit done.
3.hit the plus at the bottom left, and go into the display options and select display timeout
4. Set it to the lowest setting which is seven seconds. Hit done, then hit done again to get back to the main screen.
4. Hit new again, and name this one timeoutrestore
5. Go into the event options and select display, then select display on and hit done
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4, but this time use your normal timeout setting. Done, done, done all the way out.

alright here goes. I'll post what happens. thanks for helping me out buddy. Just get why nobody else had this happen lol.... suckkkksss
Still no luck brothers. I'm going to run cyan 6 until there's a specific fix for that. I'm good at following directions so I don't see where I went wrong. Frustrating, just wanted to be able to switch when I wanted. Could exchange for refurbished but I don't like that idea and ill prob make the same oops I made on this one. Boo

that sucks man - I bet its going to end up being just some obscure setting or something simple too (hopefully, anyway). good luck.
Yeah but to get it serviced I have UN-root clear evidence of rooting lol blah

Apparently I butt dialed the software update to be allowed today and bricked my phone. I fixed it easily with flashtool but I was wondering if there was a way for me to completely disable the notifications to update. I guarantee the notification for me to make a decision to update in 3 minutes came on and I didn't notice it.
It's fixable
I used the XDA App to post this, what did you use?
If you go to settings/about phone/software update
and ignore/decline what it says next, but stay on the screen. Push the menu hard button and then untick automatic update.
Good luck

Heya.
Whenever I lock the phone with the power button and unlock it, it comes back to the original page where it was before locking the screen. This didnt use to happen before. I used to get a lockscreen, where i wud need to slide the arc upwards to unlock. But its not showing anymore
It does show up once in a while on its own. I have tried killing all the background apps, but still no luck. Have checked the display settings as well as security settings, nothing :/
P.s.: Have not rooted my phone
If i have missed something, or some setting, please let me know how to fix this. Its really annoying to see the homescreen after i press the power button. I want to see the lockscreen always which has the notifications and the arc slider to unlock >.<
Thanx.
Try to root back your phone, download terminal editor from market, and there must to be an option to repair or smtn your lockscreen. Then unroot it back and enjoy.
An other option is to root it and open root folder blablabla. Somewhere.
I hope, I helped you

Heya everyone, its working now.
I had installed an app, 'battery indicator pro' which has the option to disabe lockscreen. And i must've selected that by mistake. When i saw it, i reenabled it and now everythings fine hehe
Thank you all for the quick responses and help.
Cheers!
I went to update my PRL and profile this morning after restoring a nandroid after messing up some settings in the phone yesterday, and when I went to update my profile, it updated then gave an emergency call screen?
I know some folks in the FK09 thread have had this issue, but I haven't flashed anything FK09 or FJ10 related on my phone. Anyone know how to fix this?
Didn't you hear, that is the new DHS anti hack software that alerts them of a hack attempt. Its part of the new cyber security bill currently being run thru congress.
And oh Im just messing with ya.

I am currently running EL26 Android 2.3.6 after running FK09 for a bit. I see the same thing. I feel like there is a part of the device that we cannot access. There is no reason that this message should be showing up on android 2.3.6 EL26.
really weird !
It's not a problem its just Sprint making changes on how there network works. Guess you guys missed the Network Vision upgrade they're doing. Things are bound to change. You can OC back to EK30 and It'll still happen. My Evo3D does the same now too.

Ya i saw this a couple days ago! The second Profile update ends it pops up and shuts phone down. Check out the blu kuban thread in general I have a screen shot. It pisses me off! I quickly found a work around from rebooting. I put the samsung task manager on home page. So when this pops up, hit home. Then clear memory, and phone wont reboot. Works like a champ.
Same thing happened on my phone. A emergency countdown appeared on screen. When I clicked the back button, it started to dial 911. Any idea how I can update my profile without dialing 911?

The countdown is until reboot. If you need to make an emergency call, hit the button... Otherwise just reboot and it will be fine.

Thanks for the tip, I didn't want to try it again if it was going to call.
After upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1 I found that my phone won't switch on until I press the power button three times although sometimes it does switch on first go. Then, I installed the latest OTA patch to 4.1.1, software number 3.14.401.31 (international version) and found that accessing the camera from the lock screen, with security pattern enabled, is very slow. That is when you drag the camera to the unlock ring and release, the lock ring pauses for about 5 seconds before the camera starts up. This didn't happen before the last update.
So far I have taken the camera out of the unlock bar and rebooted the phone and turned off geo-tagging photos. None of these options helped.
If I turn off the pattern unlock then accessing the camera from the lock screen is normal so this appears to be something to do with accessing the camera with the pattern unlock enabled.
Hi,
I have encountered the same thing - seems like you're the only one who has reported it on these forums so far. I hadn't tried disabling the pattern unlock, thanks for the tip. I'll try this. But I'm quite unhappy about this new bug that just came out of nowhere with the 4.1 update, especially knowing that the camera quick start was one of the features HTC boasted about so much!
Yeah, not much on it at the moment but the upgrade is quite recent. Hopefully more people will find this thread and we can get some traction.
Same problem here, me and my wife. Wery annoing!

I emailed HTC and they replied the next day which was good. They asked me to reset the camera app, reboot the phone and then factory reset the phone if the other things didn't work. It didn't fix it yet so I'll see what they come up with next.

No factory resetting my phone didn't work. HTC rang me back and said that I need to return it to who I bought it from. In other words no fix and returning certainly won't prove anything. I think I'll just have to wait it out until it is fixed with another update ... hopefully.
Or maybe we should looking at getting an app that provides the same functionality?
Have te same bug guys :/

I tried the factory reset too, to no avail. Seems like disabling the phone lock is the only solution, but that's not really what I would call a satisfactory solution, since I'm using a VPN on my phone and that requires a lock + I just don't want to go lock-free.
We need this issue to be known to HTC and hopefully a fix will come.
Ps I don't think this problem was present in the JB update, but only came in the small FW update that followed.

Yeah it only came in the small update after the JB update. But another problem that I'm having is that to turn my phone on via the power button, sometimes I have to press the power button three times. It doesn't always happen, but sometimes after the phone has been off for a while, I hit it once and nothing, hit it again, nothing and then on the third press it comes on. I'm not sure if they are related to the "quick" camera launch problem.
One work around for this bug, if you use your camera a lot, is to leave your camera in standby mode. That is turn your phone off while the camera is active and then when you hit the power button it will go straight to camera. I don't use this myself as I have the lock pattern on to prevent my phone from turning on in my pocket which is common on HTC phones
HTC support are a waste of space
I have this issue too. HTC told me to factory reset it, then when that didn't work they told me to return it to the store to be sent away for repair. They really don't have a clue at HTC support.
The phone was returned to Vodafone yesterday and the repair centre said "no fault found" What are they on!!! The Vodafone store confirmed the issue was still there.
I now have the phone back with no resolution.
Going to call Consumer and get some advice.
I have this problem too, quite annoying.

I'm in Brisbane, Australia and ordered my phone through kogan.com.au. It popped up as an OTA on my phone.
Thanks. Looks like that 3.18 OTA is seeding at the moment, shouldn't be long before I get it. Fingers crossed....
