Guest Sere83 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 (edited) Hey Guys, So I recently had to change the touch screen / digitizer on my blade because I broke it. Did the install fine. I'm Running Ginger Strir Fry Beta 13. The phone seems to be working fine, touchscreen and everything. Problem I have is when I make a phone call the screen goes black and every hard button on the phone and the touch screen stops responding. The phone call is still going though so I cant cut it off and have to pop the battery out to restart. Prior to my screen change this was also happening a bit. Like I would take my phone away from my ear mid call or after call had finished and proximity sensor wouldn't kick in and screen would remain black. But usually I would press a few hard buttons for a bit and it would eventually awake, unlike now where it won't unless I pop battery out. Tocuhing hard button sometimes does re-awake though. Appears to have got Got slightly worse since screen change though.... If other person cuts off the call however, screen will re-awake. Any help hugely appreciated. Edited August 7, 2011 by Sere83

Don't worry, this is an issue in Ginger Stir Fry and NOT anything to do with your digitiser replacement :) GSF sometimes doesn't wake the screen up during a call. If you want to resolve this issue, switch to Swedish Spring, the Triple Two Project or some other froyo ROM, as it's also present in Cyanogen (CM7, the other gingerbread ROM) I think.

Hi Matthew, Thanks for the reply. Yes it doesn't always happen, and wasn't present when I first started using the ROM, but happens a lot now. Might upgrade to Beta 17 soon anyway and see if it makes any difference. Annoying thing is I was running Swedish Spring RLS4 for a long while and had a fair few issues. Ginger Stir fry seemed to have fixed all the issues I had, however obviously this new issue has cropped up. Any word on whether this issue will be fixed any time? Edited August 7, 2011 by Sere83
Guest k0zmic Posted August 7, 2011 Report Posted August 7, 2011 it's also present in Cyanogen (CM7, the other gingerbread ROM) I think. There's a patch for it on CM7, it's temporary but it works very well. http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=3955#c38

Or you could use the zte emode present in froyo and as an addon for the gsf rom. I used it the once about 3 weeks ago and now my blade works perfect every time. P.S. I can confirm it works on gsf as that was the rom I was using when I installed it.
