When I turn my screen off it flips the image vertically. It gets a little annoying after a while. I'm running Caulk's 2.6 with EK02. It also did this with the previous rom. Is there a solution to this besides turning all animations off?

It's fairly common, it seems to happen when you lock it on the homescreen while in landscape mode. To fix it without rebooting pretend it's right side up and unlock it like you would normally (so you would be swiping in the same place even though the picture is wrong). Then rotate the phone and rotate it back.

im gonna venture to say he means it just inverts the image AS the animation plays. it happens on my calk rom 2.6 el 13 also. i agree, its kinda annoying. i actually wish it would play a little static as it turned off like a tv
Seems to be happening on a few different ROMs that use the CRT animation. Maybe its the EL13-based ROMs
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Yeah my EL13 it doing it too. Annoying as hell. I always have to reboot to get it fixed. I never knew what was causing it but I'll have to try to make it do it now.
Its the ICS screen rotation animation. Strongsteve removed it 2 updates back because he wants no issues whatsoever on his ROM. I addressed the fix on Calkulin's thread as well. There are 2 .so files you can push from previous version that will give you stock rotation animation back and clear that up. You would use Root Explorer or similar file manager and push them individually to system/lib folder

Merry x-mas everone. like everyone else is saying it happens when shutting the screen off rather its In landscape or vertical view. its so hard to see unless you stair directly at your phone when shutting the screen off which I don't . its a small price to pay to have the smooth ics screen rotations. I haven't had any stuck upside down screens Like some have had.
I was able to fix my flipped screen problem by downloading Spare Parts from the market and changing to Windows Animation to Fast.
Hope this helps.
I think its just a bug in the screen rotation animation because i get it and im running stock with the aio mod

Sorry but everybody saying its from ics is wrong. Thats an issue too on gb and its from crt animation which i believe all developers add to their roms. And the fix like someone said is downloading spare parts and switching the window animation to fast (which will kill the crt effect when powering on and just leave u with the screen shut off crt effect. Ive been on every ics build and never had the problem. Only time i had the problem was on EL29 when i flashed the aio mod for the hotspot hack which also came with crt..

Actually, it is the ICS animation on GB that does it, pretty sure thats what was implied. Not that it happens on ICS. Just elaborating on what you said.

I by no means take credit for these but I can confirm they are working for me. I got these from the Skyrocket forums:
To fix the power off/reboot freeze issue do the following:
Make a CWM Nandroid backup of the ICS ROM. Then do a restore of the backup you just made without wiping anything. Reboot and test it out. It worked perfect for me.
Not sure why it works but it must have something to do with the restore scripts being used. They must somehow correct the power off/reboot issue.
To fix the portable hotspot issue do the following:

This has been tested by me and it works like a charm.

Unfortunately I think the auto-rotate issue is kernel related so we have to wait for a specific kernel for our phones. I downloaded an app from the market "Auto-Rotate Status Bar Switch" and it seems to work pretty well.

So, here's why I ask this.
I updated to stock FC09 as soon as it was available. After a day I did the one mod that I can't live without, circular 1% battery using UOT kitchen. Ran the phone that way for a few days without issues. Then I started missing CRT-OFF. I edjumicated myself on how to edit the line of code to enable CRT-OFF by decompiling and editing the framework-res file and then flashed the modded file. All worked well for a few hours, then the phone started slowing down and getting choppy. Rebooting only helped for a short time, then the phone got laggy again. So, I went ahead and reflashed the original mod with only the battery mod (no CRT OFF), and I've been running the phone like that for several days now without a reboot and it's been super smooth.
So the question is;
Does the CRT animation slow down the phone or is it just a coincidence that my phone got laggy after I did the mod?
BTW, here's the link to the instructions I followed to create the modded framework:
http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/enable-crt-animation
I've done almost the same as you. I went from cm7 to stockFC09 and I've noticed some lagging with the whole rom in general. Even EL30 and FB15 worked better in my opinion. I even flashed stock FC09 on my cousins phone and his phone lags and freezes 10 times more than mine. So I kinda think there's something wrong with FC09 completely.

That may be it cuz at times (in my basment where I barely reach my wifi and have weak 4g) I turn on both wifi and 4g and I usually get freezes and reboots and the phone lags like hell. So I'm guessing your right in my case.

Not in my case. I'm on stock FC09 right now and it's about the same as EL30. It was only after I added CRT off that it got laggy and freezy. Uninstalling CRT off got rid of the lag for me.
I've been on aokp milestone 5.2 for a few days and I didn't know if it was related to the rom or something I did or whatever but I'll be texting or on Facebook or doin something and my phone will just go to the boot animation of the pink unicorn. And I should probably mention that the colors are out of whack for a few seconds before it goes back to normal and boots up.
Edit: Everything's still there when it boots up everything's where it should be and nothing is missing or anything it just literally reboots instantly without warning or notice.
Edit: Could it be that I'm using advanced task killer? I figured it was okay since it was on the high security level setting, just throwing that out there

It is usually either a kernel panic or running out of RAM. You could try the V6 Supercharger for the RAM issue. As for the other I would always try odin clean stock then root and flash ROM and do not restore any data. Download and reinstall 3rd party apps fresh.

If by stock battery you mean the battery it came with then yes. I'm also running aggressive settings with v6 supercharger.
My only real concern was if it was damaging my phone in any way, or if something had already been damaged. But as I've said I really can't see anything out of whack aside from the reboots and colors. (the colors get inverted or negative or something for a few seconds on pink unicorn boot animation then goes back to normal and boots up)

Go into your settings, pull your notifications down half way then swipe them back up. The screen should flicker black.

Yup, I'm also seeing a small flicker as well. I couldn't get it reproduced every time, but if I played around with the notification pull down about half way and then swiped them back up, the screen does flicker black.
Is it only from settings that you see this? I tried from my home screen, and I didn't see any flicker.
EDIT: If I go only 1/3 of 1/4 of the way with the pull down in Settings, I can reproduce the flicker every time I believe.

It happens in all apps except the homescreen. For me, it does not matter if you pull it 1/3 or 1/4 or 1/2 or all the way down... the chance of it flickering when you drag it back up is about 20%

Ok so I've had my S3 Since Aug 20th, rooted was running the LH9 AT&T Rom with root injected (which I upgraded from the previous root injected rom LH1 or something like that), anyways today while messing with my homescreen wallpaper, trying to get it to set a wallpaper without cropping it, now it sort of after waking it up and getting passed the lock screen (the wipe lockscreen) the wallpaper seems to move, like for a sec its like moved to the side and part of the screen is black until the wallpaper "falls" back into place.. hard to explain. I read about flickering issues but I don't think mine is doing that, its just the wallpaper. Any ideas?
I uninstalled any wallpaper apps I had just in case, but still nothing works. I even made a wallpaper with the correct dimensions which I read for portrait is 720x1280 and still the wallpaper, the whole screen actually gets bumped to the side and you see black on one side until it bumps back into place.
Its really annoying. I am trying to grab a screen capture but it does it too fast, yet not fast enough that I can ignore it.
Did this again with ICS I updated to the JB rom for AT&T with root injected, stock rom hoping whatever it was would go way... it did not.
Anyone else see this? Have this happen?
I even went back to a stock wallpaper to see if it would stop but still it continues.
Really confused as to why its doing that.
Here is a screen cap of what I mean.
Happens when passing lock screen, coming out of an apparently, anytime I get to home screen.

did you try reinstalling the rom? either just wipe dalvik and cache, if that doesnt work. reflashing after fully wiping. make sure your download is correct.
Reinstall using Odin?
Its odd because it just started today, I'd had the same stock image for months. JB update didn't cause it. It just didn't fix it.
I dont think it's the rom but no clue what it could be.
I don't got a custom loader. How can I wipe dalv and cashe without one?
