Hi,

I'm running the latest nightly (#80) of CM7 for Captivate.  2.3.5, Kernel version 2.6.35.7

The problem that I have had with CyanogenMod since I began using it (#76) is that the phone itself won't lock.  I've fiddled with all of the settings, and everything is set so that the phone should normally lock, but when I do try to lock the phone, the screen simply shuts off and does not enter the lockscreen.  When I try to wake the phone, it opens back up to whatever screen I was on instead of the lockscreen.  Similarly, my home and search buttons don't work.  This isn't a huge issue, but is anyone else experiencing this?

Any help would be much appreciated.  CM is still hands down the best ROM I've used.

Thanks!

Yeah I did. Is there any way to fix it?

format everything in recovery (system, data, cache), reflash the nightly, then *don't* restore system data with titanium backup
