The lights that usually appear between the buttons on my Arc S no longer work and I can't remember when they stopped! I wonder if a mod I've installed is to blame but I don't want to wipe my phone and start from scratch if possible so am looking for some help...
I am running 4.0.2.A.0.42.
Here is what I have installed:
V6 SuperCharger
I thought this might be the culprit so I used Script Manager to stop running the script at boot, rebooted and it made no difference.
Reboot option in power menu
I am using the one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1094730
Status bar widget mod
I am using the Ultra theme from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295254
That's about it.
However, one thing is odd - I seem to have an 'Automatic brightness' setting in Display options and I'm pretty sure it wasn't there when I first got the phone!
Any help is welcome.

Found it - the reboot mod was to blame.
was there any other impact other than "they just didnt light up" ?
Nope - just no lights. Seems that a few of the reboot mods available in the apps forum have the same bug.
How did you get the option to turn off/on automatic brightness? I dont have that on my phone and have same firmware as yours.

It appeared when I installed the reboot mod - but it doesn't do anything so you're not missing out! I guess the reboot mod files must of originally come from an SE device that had working automatic brightness.
oh thats too bad

My galaxy nexus, just updated 1 week ago. The icon suddenly appeared at midnight, there were no way to find the programe that coused it, neither in the pulldown nitification bar nor in running apps in setting.
But the icon looks cool though .

Usb debugging. Check development settings to see if it's enabled. I'm not sure why it would show up if it's not plugged into a usb port but that's what it's for.

Many thanks, now i find alot of cool feature, but the icon still alive, sorry.
Did you try a reboot?
If not check running apps in the apps settings. Particularly the Media service.
Yes, i did both. But even after killing all apps that is running, and reboot, the icon is still there. I wonder if this is something only on ics 4.2.1, or else might be some kind of virus.
Two things.
1. There is no ICS 4.2.1 so I'm assuming you mean JB 4.1.2.
2. It's not a virus. It's not worth the effort necessary to make a virus for an Android revision that there are 3 devices officially running and will be phased out in just over a week.
As they said: If you can't fight it, joint it. I guess i still have an awsome icon which i cannot control to show of , but still, thanks for your help
I am not sure if anybody else noticed this or posted this somewhere else, but here I go.
I am currently running ARHD 18.4 with xm kernel. I was just wiping out some dirt out of my screen and for some reason the screen turned on. After a while of investigation, I found out that if you swipe across the navigation bar (from back button to recent app button or the other way around), you can turn screen on/off !!! I was so amused to find this because from time to time I cannot be bothered to reach up to the top to press the home button
I am not sure if you guys knew about this, but for those of you who didn't know here's your tip. Please have a shot and report back. Thanks
LOL. It's called sweep2wake.
A common feature of custom kernels.

And just to add to TT's info for you, this isn't a ROM Feature.
It is a Kernel feature !!
Alex S2W is the most well known, aswell as NCX I think has this feature.

That weird. Are you rooted and are the settings applied?
I found the Problem. Su was broken. I installed it new, and it works again! Sorry for my post!

No problem - Great that you could fix it!
When I make or answer a call and put my phone up to my ear the proximity sensor kicks in and the screen shuts off. However, when I take the phone away from my ear the screen doesn't turn on again. Sometimes(maybe 25% of the time) I can press the power button to wake up the screen but usually the screen is just stuck off until the call is ended. I don't even have a screen protector that might be getting in the way.
Anyone else having this issue?
Android 7.1.1 (Build N4F26I)
Haven't had this issue and I used stock for a while, the same build as you are on.. What were you on before? Did you use any scripts or kernel tweaking apps that may have left something on your SD card? I'd look using root explorer or another file manager and delete anything you see in that folder etc/init.d and reboot. (Screenshot attached) If you have nothing in there and don't have any scripts active or kernel apps controlling your screen off I guess it could be faulty hardware. (Power buttons always are jacked up on Nexus devices. I have to hit mine a few times to get it to work...) Maybe try a factory reset if nothing above applies or works that's what I would do. Copy all your stuff to your laptop or a cloud and wipe that baby in twrp. Format data then go to security settings and encrypt again if that's what you want..
Edit
If none of that works I'd contact Google and ask for a replacement.
