Soft keys Stopped Lighting Up - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

The soft keys were lighting up just fine, I have installed BeastMod II vs 2.1 and am using Go Launcher everything seemed to be working the first day and now the second day, the soft keys do not light up anymore. Does anybody know why this has happened or a possible fix?
Edited: Idk their exact name, soft keys, on screen buttons. (If theres any confusion...)

did you install any new Kernel for BLN ?

@Allgamer, no i did not install any Kernals. Only the Rom mention and Go Launcher
Edited: Installed Jaug's Rom it started working now, could have been a rom bug...

[Q] Screen of death

I just recently flash my touch pro 2 with energy rom (diinks version) and for the first 4 or 5 days it worked flawlessly (except the fn and fn keys dont work on the slide out keyboard) but yesterday it started acting up. If i lock or turn off the screen it will not comeback on.... i just task 29'd it and reflashed the rom as i read in quite a few post. I dont think its a hardware problem the stock at&t rom worked fine...is there any other solutions to resolve this problem or should i just flash a new rom?
bump.... i cant believe that anyone doesnt know how to fix this. i dont believe its a hardware problem it was working fine 2 days ago

[Q] Proximity sensor

Hi,
I have a problem with proximity sensor and sometimes I can't hang up.
This is quite annoying when I get an answering machine because I have to remove battery.
I've installed HTC official 2.3.3 and I've notice that it's possible to unlock the screen during a call by pressing the power button and I'm fine with this solution.
However I prefer some other roms but it is not working the same way...
Do you know if there are other roms which have the same functionnality (power button to unlock the screen during call) as the official one? and preferably a sense rom.
Thanks
btw
I have already tried acesmod007, insertcoin and oxygen without any success.
As I could not find any ROM working the same way as the official one, maybe I should try to get the appropriate app from the official ROM.does anyone know how I could do that? Which app or files can I copy from the official ROM?
Or is it more complex to do?
Do u use some protecting screen or something that dosnt leave free the proxymity sensor (on the top at the phone) ?

No i'm not using a protector...I think there's dust on the sensor because when it's sunny it's working properly.I tried to vacuum it but the result isn't satisfying...
Coolexe rom with sense 3.5 works the way I wanted
Merci coolexe
Cool 3D Aces
For those who have the same proximity sensor problem:
This one is also working and has less bug than the bliss rom

Hi
I had the same problem using Leedroid 2.3.3 R5 (moving from Oxygen 2.2.2).
I had underclocked to 245mHz (I think)
I think I may have hit on a fix (only tried it today and it appears to work fine dialling with stock dialler and Contapps) :
Re-flashed Oxygen (full wipe incl cache and Dalvik)
Went to CPU settings
Changed CPU clock settings to 575(?) mHz
full wipe again
Re-Flashed Leedroid
did full install, Titanium apps restore etc.
It appears to have solved the problem.
I have a sneaky feeling that it might drain my battery a bit faster but as I said I've only done it today and haven't ran the phone for too long yet
Hope it works for everyone!
*UPDATE* Looks like I spoke too soon, it's stopped working. I can get the lockscreen toggle (power button) working sometimes in Oxygen, but it takes 10-20 secs - not great.
Even tried raising minimum CPU to 998 and it still didn't work.
Sorry for raising everyone's hopes!

**UPDATE THUR 4TH OCTOBER**
Messed around a bit - updated the SU app (after uninstalling updates) - don't know if that had any effect but it got rid of unable to update binary error
Now Using :
GINGERvillain 3.1
Kernel 2.6.38.4-defrost-bravo+ [email protected] #891 (comes with GV 3.1)
Still a problem with lockscreen but power button seems to wake it every time
Good luck
Actually I'm having a hardware problem with the sensor and I just needed a workaround.
With some roms it's possible to unlock screen using power button so my problem isn't fixed but at least I can end the phone call when needed.
I'm using cool3d aces and it's working fine.

[Q] Installed 2.3.4 - soft key backlight issue

Tried searching all over but didn't find much info on this... yesterday, I successfully installed Gingerbread 2.3.4 on my Defy using instructions in the guide by boonhoong (thanks for the great guide, btw!).
Anyway, everything seems to be working fine, except the backlight on the soft keys - it turns on / off normally but is always at FULL brightness, no matter what setting I use for the display. I am pretty sure this wasn't the case with the stock Froyo rom - the soft keys used to dim with the display rather than being at 100% all the time when turned on.
One thread on another forum mentioned this same issue and cocluded it was a h/w incompatibility with GB (this was a Droid 2, though). Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
is if it can help

I believe it uses the light sensor to turn on/off the softkeys baklight....test that see if it works....

[Q] Weird keyboard behavior in 2.3.x (official and Cyanogenmod 7.2)

Hi. I have been having this problem for some time now. When I install any firmware based on gingerbread, my keypad behaves strange: the space bar doesn't always work, works only about 50% of the time. It does this only if the phone is rotated to the left. when I hold the phone straight up, the keyboard works just fine, and it even works fine when I rotate it to the right. When I install any official firmware based on froyo, the issue is gone. Even when I use the unofficial Cyanogenmod 7.2 the keyboard annoys the hell out of me. I have tried some official firmwares based on gingerbread and all of them had this issue. It is like if the few millimeters on the left side of my phone were not touch sensitive... I did many formats etc. and nothing helped (only installing 2.2.1 fixed it). Anyone had the same issue? Or knows of any solution?
Thanks.
Maybe calibrating sensors ??
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
I think I have the same issue with CM 7.2 (dunno about 2.3.x, I was on 2.2.1 before going to CM7.2). For now I just use SwiftKeys and type in portrait mode.
Can I calibrate the touch sensor somehow?
i had the same problem + the " . " key didn't work
the solution for me, as strange it may sound, was to (re)install gapps. the only version that worked was this one
if you run out of options, feel free to try it.
ps: must flash it in cwm recovery mode
I tried the google apps but still nothing. Any other advice? I downgraded the FW - I'm currently using the official S5660XXKC5 (2.2.1 Froyo) and the keypad works flawlessly. That's really weird. Why is it broken only in gingerbread? Well I don't know why I should use gingerbread anyway, because my experience is that it eats more RAM, ROM and battery, but you know, I would like to find out what's causing this idiotic keypad behavior...

Dead capacitive buttons

Hi,
My home, back, menu and search buttons have stopped working. Is there a way around this or is it new phone time?
Any suggestions for a new phone, ideally with keyboard but not a deal breaker, the S3 looks good.
Thanks
Have you tried flashing a new rom? On one of my old phones I had a rom go wonky and after doing a fresh wipe and flash everything started working again.
