My kernel is FE22 on a CM9 self build.
Is anyone else having an issue where the capacitive buttons won't start responding right after the phone is unlocked?

Yes! I was beginning to think I was the only one! I'm on the FF11 kernel and Team Venum's Wicked ROM.

Lol, I don't think that switching carriers will fix that bug. It's most likely a bug on numerous Samsung devices.

Im running FF11 and have had the same issue the last couple of builds, i noticed it after FE21. i was starting to think my E4GT was having a hardware problem. Glad to hear im not the only one who's having this issue.
I started having the issue on custom ICS Roms. Tried several roms and stock unrooted to fix it and eventually sprint swapped out my device because I couldn't fix it on my own. Picked up my replacement two days ago. Currently running stock unrooted FH13 and still having the issue. Surely Samsung is aware and working on a fix for this... Time will tell. If anyone has found a fix for it please post it. Thanks!
Are you referring to the hardware buttons? (i.e menu, home, back, and search?)
Ya, mine do not respond every so often. It started happening once I was flashing custom ROM's for ICS and JB. I don't believe there to be a fix out for that right now.. I just put up with it considering it doesn't happen THAT often.

I was upgrading ics and phone got stuck then I turned off and on . Now lts bricked. When I turn on screen led is black , nothing on. Only notification light turn on when I turn on the phone or connect to any USB. When I connect to computer it doesnot recognize. Also phone doesnot go to recovery or download mode. I have tried everything like pressing diff combo buttons even USB jig. Any ideas before I take to store.
Sounds like brick city. Your symptoms are similar to most of is who had bricks.
Take a look around, there are a couple threads in general and the q&a. Maybe pull battery for a couple hours amd come back to it. Otherwise, head to store.
How do I turn my phone on?
Doesn't sound so "soft" if you can't get into recovery or download mode.
Good luck to you.

So you were on Gingerbread, wiped everything and tried to flash an ICS ROM and it bricked your phone? You can't get into download mode? (Hold volume down and power)

No I was on MIJJz Ics and was trying to update the same but lattest with CM recovery and middle got stuck and thats it. Now tried all but nothing is working so looks like time to goto store.

OK, yeah if you wiped anything in ICS recovery and have blue light you are done. People are doing OK with the format zip but that's not 100% safe either. Wiping individual partitions is dangerous right now. Well, hope things work out for you at Sprint store. They are getting stricter about that. Let us know how it goes

Whew.... I guess I was the lucky one. I have flashed like crazy and wiped like a madman in both the fc24 repack and fd02 repack. So far, the only thing that happened was a few errors (like mms not working or phone only able to call out, not receive) when flashing mijjz xplod mini. Just had to wipe a few more times, but is working like a champ (so people dont read this wrong, the ROM is just fine, it was my fault by trying to flash theme at same time without setting up the ROM first).

yeah dude, you're better off never using an ICS recovery. ICS recoveries offer nothing that GB recoveries can't do. the only thing gained is convenience and a huge risk of permabricking your phone. oh well, lesson learned (God knows I learned mine).
I've been using one click el29 Odin to go back to gb from ics leaks. My question is if I'm on an ics leak can I flash el26 kernel to go back without bricking?

If you use Odin or mobile odin, yes. I wouldn't recommend trying that through recovery.
Damn, the same thing happened to me with mijjz going from 3.2 to4.0. I even tried sending to mobile tech videos and they couldn't save it. I was using cwm and it froze midway through and it was done. All I get is a blue light.

that sucks. hard to believe people are still bricking with all the warnings posted everywhere. unfortunately the side effect is going to be sprint cracking down on exchanges.

Does this apply to GB recoveries like Rogue's CWM? I've been using that zip without issues so far but now I'm wondering if it's safe anymore.

The zip is completely safe especially for gb recovery with rouge cwm. The problem is the ics recoveries

even if your phone is really messed up they are making it impossible. thats the phase im in right now.
Do yourself and everyone a favor and just buy a new phone. It isn't fair to all of the people who can read that you didn't read some simple instructions and are going to try and scam sprint to get a new phone. Either buy a new phone full retail (500 at corporate) or buy a phone used. Take it as an expensive lesson to actually read for once.

Anyone notice the quiet volume on notifications, alarms, and ringtones on alpha 3? Is there a fix out there for this? It just seems so quiet.
I guess no one else has soft volume issues. I just find it very noticeable

I haven't had an issue with alpha two or three. Haven't noticed a volume problem personally, but I rarely use ringtones or notification sounds.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
I have noticed many people referring to various ics roms as evil simply because they have heard a couple horror stories of bricked phones while flashing.
The fact is, even a relatively inexperienced but careful and intelligent person can successfully flash and use an ics from with little risk.
I am fairly new to phones, but have a lot of experience in Linux and other computer areas and had no problem with cm9. Other than battery that is.
Also keep in mind that cm9 is an alpha, meaning not yet complete release.

I've had this for a few weeks. The version I had before was the first official ICS that I flashed from this forum.
This update just appeared one day. I wish it had not though. It seemed to slow things down and make my acer less responsive.

Got offered it and rejected it since I'm on a custom rom. Doesn't sound that great anyway ... thanks for the heads up.

I think they are great as long as they work. I spent days customizing everything but then I had to revert back to ics because of all the calling and freezing issues.

I switched back to ICS for the same reason.
Not sure if many people were aware or not but Codename put out a ROM for our Sprint version. It's up on GOO and also if you just google Codename Android, his site will come up. Not sure why he didn't open a thread on here.
I ran his Roms on the Nexus and it was awesome, lots of customizations. It's more like AOKP as far as options as opposed to CM.
Edit: DO NOT FLASH YET, ISSUES BEING WORKED OUT.
