Running Calk's E4GT v.3.0 and Overstew's ICS theme v2.5. When turning on/off screen crt animation gets all jumbled up, like thick white pixalated bands, if I reboot its ok for a while, then it comes back after a while.
Anyone notice this?

I noticed it does it for me too. Seems to start after restoring a nandroid backup. Looking for the zip to try and reflash it.
*Update*
It stops doing it after you reboot phone, it comes back after a while, after using phone for a while. No biggie though.

Yup. Same here.

Happens to me on EVERY TW ROM. The ICS AOSP ROMs seem to not have that problem though

It's an ICS related issue, so ROMs based off the leaks will most likely have it.
This is a known issue. I believe people call it "fuzzy" CRT screen off. Happens with Calkulins, Blazer Rom, and I assume the rest of the TouchWiz based lot. However on AOSP Roms (Miui, CyanogenMod, Codename, AOKP), both ginger bread and ICS, it works fine. There is no solution. Besides rebooting.

After several days of the fuzzy crt screen and rebooting it seems to have stop doing it. Have not noticed it over past several days, I would say that all is well..

I'm pretty sure it has something to do with missing lib files since our phone didn't have crt off animation in the first place. If you find the lib files for the fancy screen rotation animation it will fix the white but put the phone upside down as you press the power button.
I have an issue where the screen flashes after the crt animation. It's not weird looking, just a split second of what ever I was looking at. I've only noticed it when I use the power button to turn the screen off. I'm on blend 4.0.
Also, my wife has the same issue on blend 2.6.2, one of my friends has this on stock, and said his girlfriend has it on stock, too.
edit:They are using go locker, no animation, but still get a screen flash.
Not at all an issue I'm worried about. It seems like the animation isn't long enough, like the phone doesn't make it to sleep before the animation is over. No educated idea though, just a theory.

I thought it happened when you did a screen capture but stops after a reboot.

Wondering if anyone else had this problem. I'm on CM7 and on my call screen, im getting this weird call bar in the background. Looks like something from the sense rom. Before I installed this rom, I did a full wipe so I don't know if it's my phone or a CM7 bug.
Any idea how to fix this? Thanks
Change the lock screen in CM Settings back to Sliding Tab.

Awesome thanks! It worked. I personally don't like the sliding tab, so when i switched back to my preferred lock screen the funky bar was gone.
Yeah that was my only problem with using the rotary lock screen. So I went to plain lense. lol
If you use rotary instead of rotary revamped it works as well.
this is a issue and its been fixed the nightly...
Hi I am running Caulkin's ICS ROM and I have tried other ICS ROM's but I really wish I could get the mail client font smaller. On the stock ROM the font size was great and it displayed it nice. Now even when I set the font to small it is still very large. When I pinch to zoom out it just goes back as soon as I scroll. Any ideas? I use yahoo and exchange.
Can you post your screenshot?
I went back to the stock rom. It has a setting for tiny font that the ICS rom did not. This was not the only reason. I was sick of random reboots.

I also experienced the same random reboot and freezing og system. There would be some application conflicting with ics, and I believe some battery saver apps are causing the problem. Even the battery drain was worst than it's not been used.
I tested with juice defender & green power. For both, could be a reason of fc or random reboot. After uninstalling those apps, I'm not getting any more random reboot.
Only the benefit of using battery saver app is when the phone is in idle mode.... To save the battery just a little, there are lots of things that we are getting as a side effect.

randomly my phone stopped doing the lock animation. you know the one that looks like a tv turning off, idk what file is responible for this but if anyone can point me in the right directory that would be very helpful
thank you

(the animation worked on jelly bean, just stopped randomly)
I would be willing to bet your window animations are turned to the fast setting. Turn them back to normal speed and you should get it back. This can be done if you have the spare parts app or some roms have it cooked in. Also check under developer settings and make sure Window animations are at 1x speed. That should fix you up. You can set transition animations as fast as you want but Window animations have to be normal (1x) or slower to retain the crt off (screen off) animation

So is installed the FREE GS3 R6 and it gave me new animations for exiting apps, locking the phone etc. Unfortunently these were ported from jellybean to the S3 and there are some minor graphical bugs that annoy the crap out of me. One being you exit the text messages app and the app closes but the keyboard stays for about a second. Also when you do the tv lock animation everything goes fine until the last second the screen blinks for about a second. Im not complaining but is there anyway to switch to the old touchwiz animations. Is there some sort of zip I download extract and just drag animation files onto my android and just replace them.
Thanks!
Actually there is a way. Download the latest stock rom and flash it. You'll have a perfectly smooth rom with perfectly smooth animations......
You can turn them off altogether. Not sure if that would suffice for your preference, but you could give it a go.
Settings > Developer Options > Window/Transition Animation Scale

Preface: I've asked about how to disable capacitive backlights on stock TW ROMs, and now I independently found half of the answer.
By looking inside EpicParts.apk from CM-based ROMs, I obtained the position of soft key "device": /sys/devices/virtual/sec/t_key , and by modding the file "brightness" under it, capacitive key backlight turn off.
However, on TW ROMs this never persists no matter how I set the permission / owner, while on Incredible S, after modding I can mod the permission to r--r----- to prevent system from reverting this setting.
Plus, on pre-CM10 era ROMs, "Epic 4G Settings" is there but even if I disable the backlight, it always light on for a wee second every time I unlock, which is pretty annoying as I use onscreen keys heavily.
Digging further into CM10's EpicParts (which can totally turn backlight off, regardless of unlock), it seems that it creates two files under the folder, "touchleds_disable" and "touchleds_voltage", but I don't know how this behaves, nor can I imitate the behaviour.
So... it'll be appreciated if anyone can explain to me how EpicParts (of JB) works and how I can reproduce its effects. Thanks all

I don't really have an answer to your question but I have a question for you lol. What you did disabled the lights completely? Like even the little flash they give when they are pressed on? They're just completely off?

Yes, that's the effect I'm looking for, and by now only CM10 and PA 2.5+ can do that; however, if I choose to disable them completely, the "Recent Apps" view will automatically pop up randomly, and I dunno why
