As far as I'm concerned, I notice JPM/JPK Roms (I have applied tayutama 1.0.0 and voodoo kernel pre6) has this VIBRATE issue when the phone goes into sleep.
In details:
When the screen goes off (black), in a few seconds, the phone will have a slight vibrate.
If you turn on the screen and play around with it and let it sleep again (screen goes off), in few seconds it will still vibrate again!!
Not only a few seconds after phone sleep it will vibrate, I notice the phone will vibrate on its own (phone is sleep) once in awhile in no specific duration
Anybody experiencing this can let me know what causes it? I do not know whether stock ROMs have this problem coz I always flash another ROM (mostly to deodex) over my stock ROM with either lagfix or voodoo kernel applied right after
I would appreciate if we investigate it in details if this issue is confirmed
have same problem with jp6 firmware ,have posted in jp6 firmware topic about it
Oh, I think this issue is serious enough to have a thread on its own
Anyway do we have a solution/workaround for it so far? Would love to solve this 'bug' as it's kinda annoying at times...
Yep, I get that too, on JP6 .. and all in all.. I am really pissed right now, Voodoo pre6 F***ed up my radio connection .. it detects networks in 3 4 minutes, it connects and then it disconnects in a matter of seconds,...,,, mothaxxxxx
Same problem here with JPM. Im using sztupy 0.1 experimenatal rom, but after reading your posts it seems clear that its not a problem of his room
It's dreaming leave it alone.
Wifes phone refused to send text early this evening, turned phone off, phone has failed to restart since, gets stuck at start up logo and just keeps randomly vibrating.
The phone is running froyo jp6 on voda network
Usually a random vibrate means a process is crashing or has a serious error. Use the alogcat or adb logcat to look at the log immediately after this happens, or if there's nothing there look in the kernel log with "adb shell dmesg".
Got phone to boot but everything is gone, with out a factory reset even external sd card has been blanked out . Missus is well pi#$ed off
Time to go buy her that Iphone 4 shes always wanted Or get used to sleeping in dog house. Your call
Has anyone ever ran into a situation where the UI locks up after a boot? I keep searching through threads and can't find anything. I'm not sure if it's something I have installed or if there is actually something wrong with the device. I had a nook previously and never encountered this problem but on the new one I just got (ebay refurb) the problem just keeps coming back.
Basically, it boots just fine and starts to show the Launcher but then the screen goes black and leaves the soft buttons at the bottom. The only way to recover is to shut it down and start it back up.
The funny thing is it doesn't do it all the time... sometimes it boots just fine and never locks up while in the OS... it's only on boot it does this.
I've tried multiple different versions of cm7 and am getting the same thing on all versions. I've tried different kernels and stock speeds and it still happens.
Any help or advice would be appreciated!
Hmmm... well after hours of troubleshooting I think I pinpointed it to beautiful widgets
I just have updated my mobile from 2.2.1 to 2.3.4, i used this forum tutorial - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
I have issue - my phone is turning off for no reason, you know i don't have lots of apps only fb,twitter,skype and 'advanced task killer'
actually when I am doing Skype video calls, writing SMS or anything else my phone just changed to 'black screen' every couple hours and afterwards my Samsung turning off with sound. To turn on I need take battery off and then into back then he allow to turn on...
before I updated I had little bit similar situation, my phone had 2.2.1 version and i didn't have black screen, but my phone just had 'freezing' for 10 sec or more...
what's problem for? what's your suggestions ? thank you a lot.
Ed
I have this issue as well, although it doesn't happen as much since I upgraded to gingerbread. I did have it happen once the other day. I was listening to music and I needed to make a call and when exiting the music app, it froze. It then went black and I had to take battery out and put it back in. It's annoying if you got a otterbox case on it with two layers. I had heard updating to gingerbread stops this but so far I don't think it's 100%. I use my phone as my alarm and one time it went dead with a full charge and I was almost late for work.
Let me know if you figure something out.
what can say experts about our issue ?
I will take some day my mobile to repair centre.. it's sad if couple of people have same issue and nobody can tell us the problem reason.
Try to flash a custom kernel and see if it the problem is still there
can you tell me or give information what's is 'flash custom kernel' ?
I have also encountered this problem, very frequently if i may add.
the problem actually first occured a few months ago, after i updated my firmware to gingerbread.
In my case the phone does not freeze, the screen wont turn on or respond to any gestures (hardware/capacitive button won't too), however any running process still runs, in specific i can still recieve phone calls, or at least hear the ringer.
I know of many other people that encountered this problem, all came from different ROMs (MIUI, SH 3.5 and up, Stock, PilotX etc..) and i, for one, can say that in the past two-three weeks it atarted appearing a few times a day.
So - does anyone have any ideas for the nature of this BUG??
BTW I use the i9000t which i own for over 7 months now.
Same problem
Hi, I have the same problem here.
and have seen this myself on stock roms too.
It doesn't happen very often (only once on my phone for now) but it is getting me pissed off as no one knows the nature of this BUG.
could it be a problem with the latest 2.3.4 version ? or an update of one of the applications?
I don't have too many apps on my phone only skype and 2-3 games.
the only thing I can think of right now is that all people who had this bug had skype on the phone but I don't really think it's from that.
Hi, And-roid if u ll update to 2.3.4 your mobile will working deffo better, i suggest you update your mobile to 2.3.4
Hey eddys, i have 2.3.4 for over two months now, and the problem just go worst...
Hi eddys,
I have the 2.3.4 (and my brother and sister in law have it too with a stock rom).
this is happening on all roms and all kernels...maybe a problem with the 2.3.4?
I don't know but it is very weird, no one has an answer for this....
edit:
just checked this with my phone supplier and of course they have no idea what so ever about this bug.
come to think of it they didn't even know how to fix my brother in laws "problem" when the 3G internet didn't work (settings-->wireless and network-->mobile network--> check the V on Use packet data ) so no surprise there.
Anyone???
Maybe theres another forum that this problem should be posted at??
I have this bug too, but only while tethering. I've found a solution to the tethering related crashes - after you start tethering, go to the SuperUser settings, and disable root permissions for android wifi tether. Your phone shouldn't crash anymore.
hey zyczu,
unfortunately, I do not use tethering at all, do you suggest i should disable ALL root permissions?
This bug is really getting on my nerves!!!
Everything else, but this, is working great...
Since upgrading my i9000m to 2.3.3 through Kies, my phone has exhibited similar symptoms 3 times: freezing, not responding to touch etc.
The first time I had pulled the battery when it did this, but the 2nd time I had just put the phone down a minute or 2 earlier so display was off so didn't notice it(about 2 weeks ago). And the 3rd time(today), I was using it at the time, and so started taking off my rubberized case, only to have it restart before I got the chance to pull the phone back off.
Startup took much much longer than normal, which I recall the startup was similar during the 2nd "freeze & reboot". For some reason today, I randomly though maybe its an OTA update so I checked "Settings..About Phone" and found my kernel version listed as:
Code:
2.6.35.7-I9000UGKG3
[email protected]#2
I have no idea what it was before, but September 8th was 2 days ago... It is possible it said that before today's restart but no idea. I have a PIN on my SIM so when starting up have to enter PIN for it to work, but on these auto restarts I never got asked for my PIN so it could have restarted other times too without me noticing(ie. middle of night).
Hmm, mine used to something similar when I would leave Bluetooth on but would move out of range of a paired device. After a few minutes it would just shut down or stop responding. Haven't had that issue since moving to Milkys rom.
hi guys, i just used this tutorial http://androidadvices.com/how-to-up...0-to-stable-gingerbread-xwjvh-2-3-3-firmware/
first I installed 2.3.3 XWJVB then 2.3.3 XWJVH
just doing step by step...
my phone was working fine 2days then i had same issue and then I changed to original SAMSUNG battery and it's working perfect.
try this..
p.s. what kind of batteries you have 'original' or 'non-original' ? thank you
madmigs:
I did not notice the kernel version ive had before, however i took my phone to a service center today, and for what i can see i have the same version as you do, take aside the i9000t instead of i9000m...
eddys:
Ive been using different batteries orig/non-orig on and off, although since ive noticed it hurts performance i stopped doing that, do you suggest that this might be the cause of the problem?
If so, the factory wipe i just did (formatted the internal SD card) should do the trick.
try reading this it helped me since i turn the wi fi off when i go out

Are you guys experiencing turn-off issue while phone is in the locked state. I mean you locked the screen and then after a while when you picked it up for unlocking it was powered off. If anyone has this issue, then I found a solution. Just let me know
my turning off issue went back and it's getting every time more annoying, I don't know what to do...
Hi I have a strange problem with my Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant (I9000M) running 2.3.3 stock.
Description:
a) Booting the phone would show the big S animation and bong sound however after that the animation repeats in a loop with no more sound. The phone never reaches the home screen. I notice this mostly in the morning when I wake up.
b) Usually during the morning when I wake up to check the time the screen doesn't turn on but it seems as if the phone is still working; the chime for plugging in the charger sounds. (I thought the battery was dead but it was actually at 60%)
What I've done so far:
a) I brought it back to the vendor and got a new phone.
b) Holding the power button would turn off the phone, then I would turn it back on. Sometimes it requires that I pull out the battery which results in losing all my data on the internal memory like a factory reset.
Question:
I'm highly concerned. I've gone through two of these phones and problem "b" is always a prelude to problem "a". I'd like to know if there is a possible solution and/or what the problem might be?
Note:
a) The problem started happening a day or so after I started using Samsung IM. (Skype was installed but never used)
b) The problem started the morning right after I installed Skype. (I have since uninstalled Skype, it's still happening )
You should not be losing data on your SD card by pulling the battery.
Did they give you a new phone or a refurb?
What's the build number of your phone? Should be a number under the battery in YY.MM format.
Hi Black Rose
I was talking about the internal memory not the sd card.
It's a new phone.
The build is 11.11.
If you are running stock 2.3.3 and having those issues, I think the phone is faulty.
My wife is running 2.3.3 on an 11.03 build and has no problems.
The fact that you are losing data when you pull the battery sounds like the internal memory is failing.
Alright, thanks. Do you have an idea what causes the screen to not turn on for the second phone? (This new one doesn't loose internal memory on battery pull)
I had that happen to my own phone (also an 11.03) once with Froyo 2.2 and once with 2.3.3.
With Froyo I was able to plug in the charger and the phone "woke up".
The only time it happened on 2.3.3 I received a couple of notifications at the same time and had to power it off to get the phone to work again. It never happened again in the several months I was running 2.3.3.
Okay!
Thank you Black Rose for giving me some useful information. I was just worried that this would lead to something a lot worse.
Much appreciated!
This is my 3rd phone had the exact same problem as you I heard it was something with the mother board there is a board in here dedicated to the problems with the gt-i9000m

Thanks for letting me know bambam1978; I hadn't realized there was a whole topic for all the problems. I've been searching for the specific problem where most have customs roms which is why I started this one.
I have got my Asus ROG Phone II for about 8 months and I have recently got some problems with the software. The phone suddenly turns off on it's own, when I am using it and stucks at the restarting process with Asus Logo and the loading bar on the lower side but doesn't open, even if I wait for a full whole hour. I have to press volume down + power off button to make it work again. I wanted to ask if any of you guys have got the same problem, or any clues how to solve it?
Well I had rooted my phone after a month of it's use and unrooted it. For about 2 Months before, my charging port stopped working and Asus Service Center fixed it, and I guess they somehow flashed my Phone, as I not don't have to download and install the new firmware. It was good in a way but I feel it is getting some lag during the use of certain apps and the problem which I mentioned earlier. I would be thankful and grateful for your replies.

Don't know what the problem is, but you've posted this in the wrong section!
I think I am in a similar situation. My phone's problem is that it kind of crash while booting up (stange lines shows on the screen like some glitch) , it doesnt boot up normally and it loops 3 to 4 times until it's left on a black screen. I am not sure of its status at this point for it is not responsive even to force restart (Vol down + Power) but it does work only once in a couple of minutes and proceeds to bootloop and back again to the black screen. I haven't rooted it but i did flash it from CN to WW which was successful and was using it perfectly for 4 months up until this situation. I dont know what exactly is the problem. Can anyone help me?
Same with me bro... Mines already bricked because of flashing it to the original version
Same here
