Sleep of death in all ICS Roms - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. i tried almost all the custom roms. all were well. when i shift to cyanogen and miui and ics roms, i always get sleep of death issue or random reboot issue. Any fix for this ? is this because of Bootloader ? how should i get the info about my current boot loader. means whether i have froyo boot loader or ginger ?

cant find this but you can flash gb bootloader it is backwardly compatible with froyo also

This is interesting... I've had sleep deaths on all of the ICS roms I've tried, coming from CM7 before that...
I have had no idea what bootloader I've been on, so I went ahead and loaded bootloaders from KF1. Couldn't even find KK4 anything... (most of the links in the forums are dead now)
I hope this fixes it up, otherwise I'm going to have to go back to GB ... (and I really don't want to...
Anyone come across a remedy for this?

I've had issues with the SOD, but, I've ONLY had it when I have been on GB bootloaders. My usual procedure for flashing ROM's is to FTS/MC to JF6(Eclair) then flash my ROM. So with ICS, I have never had it. I've run every THS, and ICSSGS ROM, WiUI, Doc's Master V5, and Fusion. Now with Fusion, it recommends GB loaders, so when I recently loaded it, along with the GB boots, I decided to stay with GB loaders when I switched to Doc's Master V5, I got a SOD 2 nights ago.
I also have to say that I did have SOD issues with EVERY GB Rom I ran, so i can say with a high level of confidence that it really has nothing to do with the ROM's themselves, and in my experience, has more to do with the bootloaders than anything else. I'm no bootloader expert by any means, but it's just my experience.

sleep death from poppies - yay
See OP of my ROM to avoid sleep death - it has settings.

Wow, The bootloaders have solved all my problems...
If anyone stumbles upon this in search of sleep death or charge death, (in my case both, would die after being charged over 90% and taken off the charger untill it got to around 80%)... GO HERE
Use the KF1 bootloaders with ANY rom...
It not only solved my charging / dieing issues but fixed my lag issues aswell. I can actually use my phone's browser again! (without wanting to throw it in the pool out of frustration)

What about people on CM9 based ROMS. The thread you liked to says CM users stay away in bold

A bit of an update,
After the bootloader update my phone acted fine for over 48 hrs..
HOWEVER, it is now back to its full charge, sleep death shinanigains.
The Bootloader's obviously did not solve the issue, however my phone (when its on) is quite a bit quicker and more responsive in all tasks.
I'm beginning to think that it might be a battery related issue, the phone (and battery) are now over 2 years old now.

Assuming your running a i897 bootloader now, (which means you DO see the AT&T when you boot and you DON'T see "galaxy s i9000" during boot)...
You can use this. I give no guarantee and I'm not responsible for anyone's outcome...
However, I can tell you I simply flashed this from the computer once I had done a cwm backup and pulled a copy to my desktop.
After it flashed,
I ran CWM,
flashed Icy glitch kernel (so I could reflash slim ICS),
rebooted to CWM again,
flashed my slimICS,
rebooted to cwm again,
cleared Caches and formatted all but the sdcard ... and restored my backup...
To help this process i would suggest creating a "Flash Folder" on your Internal SD. Categorize your rom / kernel / modem... what have you, will make life much easier.
Took a couple minutes to solve what I have been dealing with for a month...
All this being said, be sure you have the correct drivers for odin to see your phone. I needed to use Nexus S drivers, I assume because my rom (and subsequently the kernel) are nexus s AOSP...

I'm running dark knight 2 and have had no problems. I am also on GB bootloaders.

Why 2? 3 is out and has so much customization now

i tried 3 and have had issues with signal that clear up as soon as i put 2 back on it. i have three stored on my phone to swap to at any point though. now that there are new nexus modems out i may try again but i am currently very happy with two. with the kf1 modem i have five bars all the time.

Is this the definitive way to tell what bootloader you are running?
I think it's worthwhile to note that I have run a few ICS ROMs on my Captivate, usually charge it at night, and have never experienced SOD. Lots of people posting that they *do* experience it. I think the fact that some don't would be useful to whoever is debugging this issue.
I am currently running Docs Master ICS V5 Final w/ Glitch v14 B5 kernel.

I heard it has something to do with the CPU frequency setting. Once u raise the lower one, the DOS should be fixed.

My wife's cappy has does once in a while. She's only run cm7 with glitch. So I also will try raising min freq. From 200 to 400mhz. We will see what happens.

What was ur process of installing ur ROM. Maybe thats the trick. Mind sharing?
I usually do this:
1) Flash JF6 Eclair Odin
2) Master Clear
3) Flash GB UCKJ3 Bootloaders
4) Flash boog_KJ3_kernal3.tar using Odin3 v1.85
5) Flash CM9 (Goes into bootloop)
6) Re-Flash CM9
7) Reboot into Recovery and Flash selected ICS ROM.

Funny, I'm still new enough that I followed the directions on the OP for Doc's Master ROM:
"Installation:
-Firstly you must have rooted + CWM installed (you can flash over any rom)
-GB Bootloaders recommended...
-If lagfix enabled then disable it.
-Recommended removing external sd before flashing also.
-Copy rom to internal SD and Reboot into Recovery
-Wipe Data + Cache + Dalvik Cache
-Go "Mount and Storage" and format system
-Flash rom and reboot. At least 5 minute wait for first opening.
----if you get bootloop(probably you are coming a sasmsung based rom),remove battery, reboot into recovery using 3 button combo and reflash rom!
-When first opened let it at least 10 minute settle then reboot again...
-After second opening Enjoy your new rom..."

Constant rebooting

i have had my ATT N1 for a few months now and all has been great. I rooted awhile back and have been using Cyanogen 5.0.7 to great success. I have the pershoot kernal and never really had any issues.
Well, that has all changed. Recently I have been rebooting any many different occasions. It almost always does it when I am in Maps and navigation, which is not good because I need it in my life having relocated.
I have decided that maybe I will look to update my Cyanogen or maybe go over to 2.2. I did this today and still having these issues. I tried Kang and it still rebooted randomly and when I tried Modacos r17 it just would keep rebooting at the setup screen. I think that has to do with not having the stock kernal.
Any clues as to what is happening? I really need help and do not want to stop using Android, but I need my phone to be reliable.
If it happens on any ROM and with no correlation to anything - sounds like HW problem.
Did you use overclocked kernel?
I do have a overclocked under volted kernal
sounds like bad sw. get back to stock 2.1 update 1 (if you can) and see if your phone is stable...
WIPE all ( everything ) , and flash 2.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=692609
Follow those 3 easy steps there !
Does your phone lock up (unresponsive) before rebooting?
Phone doesnt lock up. I tried wiping evertyhing but could not wipe the sd partition. Is that necessary? I have done full wipe's (data, dalvik, & cache) and still had similar results. I have updated my kernal to the newest pershoot and I installed Kang .9b1 and so far have only had 1 rebbot. It happened when I was in the browser and went to a flash heavy site to see how it worked. Is there any 2.2 roms that keep it close to stock? I am not a total fan of adw launcher.
Have a look in this thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=703687
I'm really determined to figure out what is causing this issue for so many people! I've managed to cure my reboots for the time being, and it seems it is kernel related. That said, we need as many people as possible to give feedback as experiences seem to differ in regards to the ROMs and Kernels people are using.
Regards.
I looked over that thread and see some similarities but it is still not totally consistent with my issues. I am running Kang now fine but still have reboots that I won't call so random anymore. It happens when I use Maps for the first time, and definitely when I go to a flash site on the browser.
I cannot successfully use any other ROM since once I install it it goes into boot loop. This is driving me crazy and do not like the thought of being stuck to one ROM since it is the complete reason I bought this phone.

[Q] All apps randomly close with any custom rom!!

Foremost, I apologize if this has been asked and answered before. I've been searching for weeks...maybe I'm a bad searcher.
My issue is that I have been experiencing random force closings on random apps, including random partial reboots when unlocking the Unlock screen (screen freeze then goes to Rom intialization screen). Sometimes Dolphin HD closes when loading pages, same with stock browser and Opera Mini, though sometimes the same page will load fine (both with JS on and off and with Flash turned off in Froyo ROMs). Swype (v.2.15) will sometimes close when typing in the search widget or an SMS message in both ChompSMS and stock messaging app. Titanium Backup and Astro sometimes close when scrolling down the app list. The only consistant factor that I can think of is available RAM or the processor overheating.
I have installed multiple ROMs thinking its ROM-specific, but the same behavior manifests in each one. I've tried Assonance 5.2, Cognition 3.04, Phoenix 4.5 and Serendipity 5-1.4.
With each new flashing I first use Odin to get back to stock, then use Odin to Master Clear, then root the phone, then install Clockwork, flash it's recovery app and then use Clockwork to flash the new ROM.
I did fresh installs of any apps I installed from the Market as I know user data from 2.1 will cause issues with 2.2.
Because I thought it was a RAM issue I installed Autokiller Memory and used the 'Optimum' preset.
After all this I still have the same issues with random apps closing and the phone doing ROM reboots when at random times I unlock the phone. Can anyone give me some guidance?
1. When restoring apps with TiBu, are u restoring system data too?
2. Do not restore data of non-system apps if moving between android 2.1 and 2.2.
3. Last ditch attempt, try flashing 5.5 version of the rom in my signature, and if the issue still persists.
4. Processor overheating can be reduced to some extent by turning 3G off, and getting on EDGE. This would reduce ur download speed though.

I'll give your ROM a shot.
Stupid question - Do all ROMs have kernels and modems cooked into them? I was just thinking that I've been flashing tons of ROMs lately and I'm not sure of the most stable kernels to have.
Yup they come all "pre-cooked" with kernels and modems... otherwise they wouldn't run
But you can flash different modems and even kernels (at your own peril). You can find them in the dev forum.. usually "update.zip" that you can use to flash under recovery.
But.. this sounds like maybe your internal RAM is corrupt?
Do these things persist if you were to stay at stock 2.1? I would run it "barebones" with just the restore and use the phone for a day or two to see if it continues to happen.
If the issues stop - your all good - just need to figure out what your doing or what your installing that is horking your phone. For me in the past its been due to overclocking without even knowing it (yay for Voltage Control) or it's been an application or bad flash causing the issue.
If the issues persist under the stock ROM - probably hardware related and you would need to warranty it for a different one.

diablo009 - I ended up not using Tibu to restore anything because I feared that a backup was the cause of my force closings. I had done a clean flash of stock, rooted and then flashed a new ROM. The only apps I installed were dolphin, pandora, clockwork and Lookout.
Thanks avgjoegeek, I did kind of fear that it was bad RAM as this behavior mimics performance on a PC with bad RAM installed.
I did run it on stock for half a day because I wanted to verify and there were no force closings. I am going to run it on stock for the weekend and see what happens. If everything is all good then I will flash di11i's 5.5 and see what happens.
Could it be possible that some features of 2.2 just are not compatible with my captivate build?

When u restore to stock, format the internal SD from within windows. (Ok, I won't contest anyone's arguments on this, but I personally find it easier than doing a master clear and to wipe off even the basic folders android os format creates.)
And, I would recommend u download a fresh copy of 5.5, with a kernel that does not have any OC in it, to play safe. 5.5 is available in two versions - one with OC kernel, and one with non-OC kernel.
It could be a case of kernel too. Try swapping kernel and see if that helps. Not all kernels go well with all hardware. That's the reason I swapped to xcalibur kernel as soon as I loaded 5.5.
I think, personal opinion here, u could do away with clockwork recovery too. U cud download the cwm console update.zip and put it on ur sdcard root. And apply the update.zip with in console in stock to load up CWM console. This is the most non-intrusive way of going to CWM console as far as I know.
I've been running stock since yesterday with zero issues. My force closing issue usually appears within an hour of flashing a new ROM so this is a very good sign that its a flashing and not a hardware issue.
diablo009, you mention using the CWM console instead of clockwork recovery. Isn't this what the clockwork manager installs? Are you saying to install through the consol startup app instead of using the clockwork app when fully booted up? If so, this is what I have been doing.
Maybe its a kernel issue as I think i've exhausted all other options. I'll try xcaliburinhand's v2.3.2 01.31.2011 and see if it works.
Any other suggestions?

Yes. But instead of updating the system boot with this, it leaves the system as it is, and uses is as a standalone program.

Here you go.
1. Copy this to the root of ur sd card.
2. Go to recovery
3. Select "apply update.zip"
4. If u r doing this for the first time, u would need to step 3 again.
You would not now be in a green screen recovery console.
I would recommend storing this file in a safe place so u can copy it to sdcard root whenever u want to revert to stock before flashing a new rom.

Update:
I ran on stock ROM for 2 days without any force closings, no issues.
I just flashed di11i's 5.5 (no OC) ROM and within 10 minutes had numerous force closings and a ROM reboot.
I then flashed the I9000 reoriented ROM (from diablo009's signature link) and the issues persisted.
Is there something I'm doing wrong? Or any more ideas on what could be causing my issue?

[Q] Stuck in bootloop - What should I do?

Good evening guys!
So I'm stuck in a bootloop, and it doesn't look that I will come out of it. I'm running ROCKET ROM V22, and the Abyss3.9 kernel.
So what do you recomend me to do?
I'll now over the night keep my phone on, to try to get out of the bootloop. But I would need som advice what I shall do.
The problem is that the phone won't mount as a storage device in the computer. And I have no backup in my phone, only on the computer, so I can't restore it easy.
Help me! *said with panic on my voice*

Hi there,
Bootloops happen every now and then, if something collides or is misconfigured.
In my very own experience most boot loops happen to be script related.
This is why you should´t worry too much.
You still can enter CWM?
If so enter CWM and wipe completely (factory, cache, dalvik) and after that (NO REBOOT!!!) just reflash the ROM which just didn´t happen to work properly.
If it still is in boot loop there might be something wrong with the ROM.
> Rom is guarantied completet? No broken Download?
> Rom is really for the exact telephone model you got? (Galaxy S for example has several submodels which slightly differ from original)
In case you do not have a rooted device without CWM only thing you can do, is to begin from scratch by flashing an official ROM from Samsung via odin.
With that you should flash a kernel with CWM next time, cause it much easier to recover your device including you´ll keep all your private stuff.
Flashing the Samsung-Rom via odin will kill anything saved but the external SD.
hope this helps

Have done as you said, but still problems.
One of the problems maybe can be that it isn't CWM but RedPill.
Yes, I did download the whole file, so no strange abort of the download.
And this is the correct ROM for the Galaxy Note.
If I still have this problems in 24 hours I will contact my store and let them know what I think. I want my money back. I can also add that I'm studying law, so I let the lawbook speek for itself.
But thanks for a fast answer!
Well sad to hear that. Laws have to be different from those in germany
You´re obviously trying to flash inofficial stuff on your own. There is no way the shop could be made resposible for.
So take my advice and reflash official ROM before you return the device.
That will help enormously.
But before runnign too fast, try to give some more information to us here:
What ROM are you trying to flash?
What ROM is installed before trying to flash?
What Kernel is used to flash?
Are you using mobile Odin?
Try to answer questiones I just dind´t think of

The laws are maybe a little bit diffrent. For example, the first 6 months, the seller or shop needs to prove that the product was working when the sold it. Something that they have very hard to prove.
I'm trying to install the ROCKET ROM V22 for SGN.
I had the MidNote V2.0
The Abyss3.9 kernel (I think that it's the correct way of spelling it).
No, I'm not using mobile Odin.

Quick google search shows boot loops are pretty well known with this rom.
No you only can flash original rom with odin.
If there are important data on the device connect it cia usb and boot into cwm.
Now wath what happens. If you´re lucky mass storage mode is enables in the kernel and you got your storage mounted automated.
If not it´s time to cross fingers and search for an option to mount by hand.
I´m completely new to NOTE - all my knowledge comes from my i9000 which is a mega active community compared to the one of the NOTE
There is have the choice between 5 different ICS kernels alone
Each one has it´s abilities, so does one have the option to mount storage by hand.
This option can be found in "advanced". Hope this menu option is present in your rom
good luck!

Yeah you can. Just go to this thread. Get a rootable rom downloaded. Just follow the instructions to the word of how to flash via odin. And you will have stock rom. And you can again root and install custom rom!! No need to run back to store !

Midnote 2, as in ICS Midnote? You couldn't have been on AbyssNote 3.9, because it's a gingerbread kernel.
Perhaps it was Angelom's stock ICS rooted kernel?
Or did you flash AbyssNote 3.9 from Recovery, trying to go back to GB?

Well, I had been using ICS MidNote for a short time, due to a friend mine wanted to see ICS for the Note.
Now I tried to get back to my regular GB ROM.

You have me utterly confused here...What is the latest rom you were on before this bootloop? Midnote 2 or RR 22?
If Midnote 2 (ICS) with Angelom's kernel, and you did a factory reset at some point, there's hardly anything you can do except take your phone to Samsung service. If you had CF--Root ICS kernel, then try to follow this little set of instructions:

Sorry for being confusing you!
Before this bootloop I was running MidNote V2.0, ICS. I then tried to flash ROCKET ROM, V22. And when I started up, this bootloop came up, and isn't solved in writing moment, very many hours later.

Case closed
I can now say that the case is closed. What I did is very simple. In fact, so simple I never thinked about it. The only thing I did was to unroot my phone using Odin.
But thanks for all tips and support!

Returning to a 'Virgin' Clean System

So..
I've been playing around for a while with kernels, ROM's and so on... And I've made a decision to return the beast to it's virgin state..
Intentions are as follows;
- Flash Stock GB Firmware (Via PC Odin)
- Format internal / External SD
- Wipe cache / Dalvik
- Update to ICS 4.0.3 (Probably just do it OTA or I have the Odin file)
- Root
- Install Mobile Odin
- Install preferred kernel
From the above, Anyone have any additional advices?
Cheers
you missed out the biggest one, Factory reset :silly: lol
Obviously you just forgot to add it in
But other than that, That sounds spot on ! thats exactly the same procedure I do except reverting to GB you could just wipe on a safe kernel

I still find it hard to believe there are such things, even the kernel devs hesitantly use the term "SHOULD" ..
And yep, Factory reset should have been included
I dont follow ??
Anyway, Safety is the main thing and if you feel safer reverting to GB then thats fine, it only takes <10mins to flash and could be the difference between a clean note and a bricked note
ive wiped lots of times on my current kernel so i know it to be safe.

You still running NoteCore?
I've got SpeedMod K3-9 installed on the ICS build at the moment but as you say - it's not an epic task and for super safety I'm happier wiping and formatting in GB...
I was until about 5 mins ago lol, Im just in the middle of flashing Staxxtanium
I just fancy a change lol its been a while, no doubt il be back to cleanote tomorrow but i have to satisfy the cravings

I was looking at that myself after dabbling in the PA World.. let me know what you think..
I sure will !
I really liked PA, But i was new to the Note at the time and liked the S-Pen features and apps, Now i dont really use them as much but only stayed with CleaNote to support the dev (im loyal like that )
But i get these urges to flash (in more ways than one ) and i havent flashed anything except a kernel for a few days now.
OK ran in to an issue - is standard recovery there's no format options available...hmmm
Maybe flash Abyss?
Ahh.. that's right, it's in settings ^o)
yeah flash abyss or any other CWM containing kernel, The stock one is a bag of sh!te

Managed to clear the storage int/ext from settings so will set off on the root to gettin back to where I was..Just without SpeedMod K3-9 as Wi-Fi is unstable on that..
JBroid
Question re: Jbroid Kernel cleaning script..
- Is it worth running following the above?
- If so, can I run it under ICS ( Flash Abyss > Jbroid > Flash Kernel of choice > Reboot)?
Well that went well..
Now jus need to figure out a kernel and I'm "Back in the game"

[Q] Captivate shuts off when using an apps after CM10 flash

Hey guys, so i recently updated my phone to CM10 with the Sephamore Kernel. What happens is if i use the phone for anything other than calling or texting it will crash. Any app will make my phone crash after 2 minutes of use. Even texting sometimes kills my phone, when i try and reboot it crashes at the boot animation. Only after i wait for 15+ minutes of off time or plug in the charger does the boot finish.
I've tried reflashing, different kernels, as well as going back to CM9. Still crashes. Battery life stays the same, some times there are random fluctations but it stays relatively stable. Is my battery shot or is the problem with how i flashed the roms?
Sorry if there aren't enough details, let me know what i can do to help solve my own problem
THANKS!

Did you make any mods?
Also, are you using any new apps you didn't before flashing CM10?
Did you factory reset when you flashed CM10?
Alright
1. No i didn't make/or add any mods.
2. The apps i've been using are Facebook, Google Play, Fun Run. Stuff i'm pretty sure should be working.
3. I did a factory reset/User data wipe.
As of now i am back to CM9 stable with the CWM that comes with zip. Still crahes after ~5 minutes of use.

Which version of Semaphore did you flash? Also, are you on CM10.1 or CM10?
I used the nightly build of CM i believe it was CM nightly 20130105 155Mb. The sephamore version i used was the 2.9.8c.
I think maybe my voltage is all messed up? If i just leave it, the phone works just fine, i receive texts and can send them just fine. But the second i try to play pandora or any app just anything with a slight use of memory or even go into settings it dies.
I went to the performance options of CM 9 and tried to bring the cpu down but that just froze it. Maybe a different rom? Flash it back to stock?
Just need a fix until March thats when im due for an upgrade, just let me know if i need a new battery. I might try out the new Lumia or Nexus 4

Alright, that's CM10.1. Just wanted to make sure you were using the right version of Semaphore for it.
You could try changing your governor and scheduler (I think I used SmartassV2 and noop on my cappy). If nothing works, flash back to stock after a good backup is probably the best solution (Odin KK4 without bootloaders). Start fresh from there.
Thanks! I'll give it a try
Sorry one last question. Do you think this would be a good ROM to restore to? Not sure if i have the right bootloaders since i have CM9. Never had to flash back and worry about bootloaders. Thanks!
