Problems After ICS Ugprade

Post by Adzhan
Hi, I have a problems today after my phone (Samsung GSII, GT-I9100G) been upgrade from Gingerbread to ICS (official Samsung upgrade, not root or custom). So far I've found that;

1. Waze/background light not stay even setting is set to always ON. It follow my phone display set (30sec or 1min whichever I set). This happen either charger is setup or not. When times come and it with shut the screen, but still can heard voice navi in background.

2. In Menu -> My Waze -> My Profile -> Privacy, all setting here can't be change for example show my nickname, show my fb picture/name/link, everything.

What I already do is clear all data/cache, uninstall and reinstall back waze but still same as above problems.

Detail of my phone if this could help;
Waze ver.: 3.0.2.8
Phone: GT-I9100G
Android 4.0.3
Kernel: 3.0.8
Build: IML74K.DXLP6

No this kind of problems before when using Gingerbread...

Thanks.

Ok, I do a little experiment to my client/phone to get more clear view of how problems happen (I set my screen blank in 15sec). So what I’ve found out is if you open any page (Waze menu) and it goes to full screen then screen will OFF. Example as;

1. Menu -> Navigate
2. Menu -> Report
Etc…

But if only half/pop-up screen example “Menu” then you close without continue, screen is ON. Same goes to “Report” function, it will still ON because all that interface are not full until screen edge. I repeat, ONLY FULL EDGE OF WAZE MENU SCREEN WILL MAKE SCREEN GOES OFF.

So how can I retain back the screen? I found that if I push Home button (of my Galaxy S-II), after waze hidden in background, drag down notification down and select waze (return to waze), screen will be turn ON again as usual. If only drag the notification without using Home button, screen still will goes off when times come.

This is my finding so far…
