Reboot - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Anyone know why my phone does a random reboot but doesn't fully turn off? The radio loses signal turns O then homescreens refresh then phone starts up but the time is wrong and sim Pin doesn't show. Takes a reboot to adjust time and sim pin

What ROM are you running? and any MODS flashed? I had the time update problem yesterday morning on stock ICS that was just released after installing ADW EX Launcher. I just did a re-flash and let the ROM settle longer and it seemed to fix it. Now I'm running TDJ's new ICS release and its all seamless. As far as random reboots I have no idea.
Also for the time issue you can check in settings > date and time > Automatic date and time in order to use network-provided time, make sure that's checked, if unchecked then manually set the time yourself.
Hope this helps..

Button lights no longer working

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

Limit 4 deauthorizations per year google music

FOUND THIS ON ENGADGET THIS MORNING. http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/16/google-music-authorization-limit-rooters/ I HAVE ALREADY HIT MY LIMIT AND HAVE MAXED OUT MY AUTHORIZATIONS. IF YOU USE GOOGLE MUSIC AND FLASH ROMS FREQUENTLY MAKE SURE YOU LIKE THE ROM BEFORE AUTHORIZING MUSIC ON THAT SETUP. ID CHANGER MAY WORK TO KEEP THE SETUP THE SAME BUT I DONT LIKE USING THAT APP BECAUSE IT AUTO REBOOTS AND DOESNT SHUTDOWN PROPERLY WHEN IT DOES.

Titanium hangs up

Guys
My titanium backup pretty much gets stuck on different apps every week. This time, it's hung up at 73% on shopsavvy 5.0.5, an app which I barely use and was definitely not open.I could start removing apps but it hangs on a different app each week
Anybody else seen these problems?
Thx

I have. Not sure why but it will just randomly get stuck on an app until I force close it.
How do you force close it?

On some ROMs you can go into Developer Options and enable long press back to force close which is the easiest way. Or just go into your phone's Settings --> Apps then find Titanium and select force close. Or if using the stock launcher just drag it from your app drawer to your home screen where it says App Info.
It looks like they may have fixed it.

[Q] Awake Time

Hi, my phone has been periodically waking up as seen in the screenshots below.

}
I've gone through all of my installed apps and made sure that they arent refreshing, etc. at any frequent period (facebook and android weather were the biggest abusers, but I turned refresh off and to 6hrs respectively). I cant find any other apps that would be waking the device up, but its still being woken up about every 7 min. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
I seem to be having the same problem since the jelly bean update At first I though it was the steam app the one awaking the phone, but it doesn´t seem to be the case. Right now I´m blaming Google Now as I see no other suspects, but I´m not really convinced... It looks like it only happens when I have data connection or wifi on. If I disable all data, the problem seems to dissapear.

Ok so I just realized that Tapatalk was set to check for updates every 30 min. I changed that to 12 hrs, but that still doesnt explain the rate of awakes that I was seeing. Could it be google sync? I thought there used to be a place to set the sync interval, but I cant seem to find it in JB...
use better battery stats to look at what's keeping the phone awake

Screen black during calls

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.
