Hey guys,
I have my Note for about 7 months now. The last 4 months I used a ICS nightly rom (can't quite remember which one it was).
Everything went smoothly, but some day the Note started to take a while to wake up. Did not make a difference if powered on by home button or by the power button. I thought this was an issue of too many apps or something. So I wanted to make a clean new install. So I did everything in the normal procedure (wiping everything, install new rom etc.)
So now I tried the Rocket ICS, the Rocket JB and currently the ParanoidAndroid roms, but I still experience this enormous lag of 4-8 seconds when waking up. I tried the Abyss kernel 3.9 (which didn't work with the ParanoidAndroid rom, I guess b/c of the new mali drivers). So I tried a kernel with the new mali drivers, currently the JellyBeer kernel. So the rom booted fine, but still no change to the wake up lag.
So right now I just don't know what the problem is and how to fix this. The lag most often appears after the phone rested for a while. Also changing the cpu governor does not change a thing (ondemand, conservative, performance, and so on)
I hope one of you guys has an approach or a solution to this problem, because this is getting really annoying.
Thanks in advance,
MCSCHMIDD
No ideas?
Additional info: that lag does NOT appear when I have the phone connected to my PC or a power outlet, only when running on the battery alone. Switched the battery yesterday, seemed to work fine again. But after recharging on the power outlet over night the lag appears again.
Any ideas guys?

No matter what I do and however many times I flash cm7, I seem to have erratic touchscreen behavior.
The nook is BRAND NEW (two days) and I flashed it with cm7 7.0.2 stable (after phiremod's 6.0 & 6.1) and flashed it about four times now.
I have tried it with the OC and without.
It's not the SD - it doesn't matter if it's in or not.
Not the wifi, since I didn't even set it up the third and fourth time - it was too erratic to even try.
Plugged in or not... still the same problem. Doesn't seem similar to the other forums topics about touchscreen issues WHILE charging.
Screen is near spotless... no smudges.
It is important to note, that it waits until I have done a few things to start going crazy. I restart it and it's fine, until I do some cpu intensive stuff - live wallpaper is the simplest activity that causes it.
Any ideas?
I have also tried NSR (screen re calibrator) to no avail.
Would love a quick fix rather than re-installing stock and returning it and convincing them to replace it. I am not sure if it does it with stock... didn't wait long enough to find out before flashing it.
have you tried a screen protector? my screen wasnt the best for precise touches but since i put a screen protector on and clean the screen regularly it has since changed my problems to almost non existant.

Others may be able to help you more than I can with exactly when the CM7 may be doing this, but returning to stock to find out is actually not hard at all.
In the development thread there is a post that has the 1.2 stock zips (one keeps CW in place, the other returns it completely to stock). Which ever one you pick it's still just as easy to return to stock as to reflash CM7 again. This is especially true if you used a SD card with CW to flash (which is what I do), since when you want to go back to CM7 you won't have to worry about flashing CW to emmc again.

Hate to say it but it sounds like it might turn out to be a hardware issue. This is not a CM7 issues that I've seen from anybody.
Can you describe the behavior in more detail?

It seems to start selecting things on its own after I have been using it for a while. It's difficult to describe except that there isn't really a pattern... it selects something different and keeps at it. At one point I almost purchased an app from the market before I had to power down.
I will return it to 1.2 stock and report back. I was mainly wanting to know if these was a commonly reported issue or not. I guess it's not. Thanks for the help everyone!

So my NC started to do the same thing last night. I have been running CM7 (at 7.0.2 now, but nightlies before then with dal's OC kernal) for quite a while now with no problems. Only thing I did last night was to delete about 1GB of ebooks off of my NC and reload them through Calibre.
I left it alone last night after it started doing it and then this morning it started doing crazy touches again. I was in Aldiko and it was selecting books and turning pages at random. Rebooted and it seems to be fine for now. Little odd though considering it has been running perfect for a few months.

So now I have installed nook stock 1.2 and NO PROBLEMS. I have run everything trying to get something to happen, and nothing.
Is it possible that I installed something the wrong way with cm7? Could I have used the wrong CWM version (3.0.0.6)?
Should I try cm7 7.0.2 or something else again?
I would try and return it, but I can't recreate the problem... if I could, I would be in their face right now.
Thanks for the help so far.
I think I solved it!
The newest nooks (in the last week or so) have 1.1.0 factory stock. Apparently there is a glitch that has been reported a lot recently about handling the touchscreen AND the SD card. These were fixed in the 1.2 upgrade. SO...
1. I flashed factory stock back on (in this case I went back to 1.0.1)
2. Then turned it off and "restored factory" settings using "Power+N" to turn it on. Repeated that a second time to get B&N's factory reset screen to come up.
3. Pressed N twice to accept restore prompts.
4. Upgraded to 1.2 (no glitches already by this point with touch or SD)
5. Booted CWM 3.0.0.6+
6. Formatted /system & /data
7. Flashed phiremod 6.1
8. OC'd to 1.1Ghz
...and DONE. No problems so far. I still see the "Read Forever" opening screen, but it still works wonders. WAY better than before.
I am still having issues with Wifi, but I can deal with that.
Now to attempt dalingrin's OC to 1.3!
Thanks guys... hope this helps others.
I think they call it "Touchscreen goshting". It started happening to me when I rooted the nook and the keyboard would go crazy. Now in CM7 7.0.2 with latest kernel, it happens more frequently. About 5 minutes in from boot, fast random touches occur. Most of the times this gets fixed by pressing the power button to turn the screen off (sleep), and on again. I guess it could be a hardware issue where some devices are affected. I haven't tried any recalibration apps to try to fix it yet, its kind of annoying when it happens in fast intervals.
I had weird touchscreen issues when using the interactive cpu governor. I later found only performance is supported. Using performance setting, everything works much better.

I had the same issue. I exchanged it the other night and now my new one does not have the problem. It probably a hardware issue...i hope you are still under warranty!
some times the phone stops responding to the power button. just black screen. nothing helps. only to take out the battery. can it be the sdcard?
CM 7.2
Hello!
This sounds like a SOD(sleep of death).
Do you use the latest KANG?
What kernel do you use?
Standard kernel or a custom build?
It could be the battery - I had SODs after reinstalling the stock battery – switching back to my Andida battery I use since August 2011 helped.
But this was in connection with an UV-kernel - didn't have SOD with standard kernel.
Use a more stable rom. Stock based ones.
Hello!
The latest CM7-KANGs are very stable - I actually have less trouble/SODs/instabilities with them I ever had with stock based roms.
But temasek/CM7-sources had a few little hiccups in KANG building around x-mas, which are sorted out right now – so the OP should update to the very latest kang since their seem to be some KANGs in between with some issues…

This to me I'm 99% sure its a SOD. You cannot recover unless u pull your battery.
Nothing is wrong with your phone. It just happens with our phone though I've not had a sod since long long ago.
Update to latest rom and just pray it doesn't come back again.
If it happens again use power + vol up. Depending on your sd card it might require an extra shutdown because it doesn't mount properly. I just hate pulling battery with people around cause it looks stupid

Hello everyone,
recently i've got some strange UI reboots; first time it happens while in deep idle with MIUI SpeeD 4.9.5 and Devil 0.78 XL.
Guessing was a kernel issue i've tried to switch to Semaphore 1.1.0 but they happened again.
It's strange because i see them in battery history (they reset the time since system started) and sometimes i catch them on the fly (always when screen off, i see screen lighting on and lockscreen appearing with "Battery 100%").
Switched to Slim and Semaphore (i've made all the wipes and factory resets) they appear again less often.
Now i'm on Slim 3.6 and Midnight 202LR and these resets seems reduced, but after some time have returned.
What's wrong?
I've never noticed this before (this doesn't means they never happened), but now they appear quite often.
Can somebody have an idea?
Thanks in advance!
So folks, i've upgraded to Slim 3.8 after all wipes and the problem seems gone.
I'm very disappointed that no one had some ideas and wrote nothing.
I'm lucky that my issues solved itself, but some help were useful.
I can say
THREAD CLOSED!
Obviously I have an N7000 and I am noticing a peculiar problem for the past 2 days.
When I use the Power / Home button to wake the phone up, it takes close to 10 seconds to wake up.
When the phone is sleeping and I receive a call, it takes 10 seconds to wake up again.
When the phone is awake and someone calls, and I slide to Answer, the slider gets stuck and the phone is answered after 10 seconds.
I tried various ROMs, did a factory reset as well.
Interesting bit - All these problems vanish when am charging the phone. These problems occur only when am on battery. Could this be a battery issue ? Will replacing the battery help ?
Thanks,
Amit
So have you tried different kernels? Imho, I would flash a rom that is stable. I assume you are 4.0.4. After you fully wipe and install the rom of choice, check if you still have the lag. There are so many reasons that could cause it. Cable you're using, kernel, rom, etc. Do you use setcpu? You can actually set it to change when and how the cpu acts while screen off, on etc etc. In the past if I had a lag like that it was a problem with thte rom itself or an app that was causing the lag. If you need more help just PM me. Please post your results here so we can all follow the symptoms until we find a cure.
Thanks DBY,
I tried AbyssNoteKernel 4.2 and CF-Root. Both are showing the same issues. I am going to try another battery today. If the problem persists, I will let you know.
Thanks,
Amit
Which various ROMs ?
Please post the ROM name,version and the kernel which you are using.
Check your power save settings.
Disable all power saving and see if this resolves your problem.

I installed Thrillseeker 3.1 about 2 weeks ago, and have been noticing a few things. Sometimes the phone stops responding to touches for a while, like its locked up, or lagging, or maybe the wrong CPU governor. I don't know what's going on. Sometimes it randomly resets. One repeatable problem is that if I turn Wifi on, then off, then on again, the phone resets.
I have tried the 1.30Ghz kernel included in 3.1, the 1.38Ghz kernel, the 1.0Ghz "Saver" kernel, and the 3.12 update, but the same reset-on-wifi problem persists.
Is anyone else having similar problems? Simple fix?
I would try reflashing back to stock. Reinstall CWM, then try installing the ROM again.
Beyond that, maybe you should PM the guy who made the rom.

I haven't had the reboot problems since 3.12 update from 3.11 clean install. Have had lag issue a couple times..for me restarting holo launcher corrected...tried to recreate wifi issue bit is working for me. All three kernels are very similar the saver has 1.3 and 1.2 disabled and the hotplug gov tweaked
Also posting this in my thread might get you more help.. since your running thrill seeker its ok to post problems you are having in that dev thread as others may be having same issues and ill see it quicker and try to help fix it if I can.

yeah, i'm a noob
I'll try going back to stock and then reflash the latest thrill seeker. I would have posted in the dev forum, but I don't have 10 posts yet, so I'm restricted from posting in dev. only 8 more to go
3.12 hasn't had a random reset on me, just the wifi reset, but that one "works" every time.
Thanks,
brian
found lag problem and found possible fix
lag problem on thrillseeker 3.11/3.12 appears to be the CPU somehow resetting the Max MHz to 100MHz after the phone sleeps for 10-15 mins. Having Romtoolbox installed, then adjusting the CPU sliders quickly bypasses this issue. Although a true fix is in the coding, this workaround appears to be permanent once preformed. At least we now know it is not a flaw in the Rom as far as an overload or hang-up problem. I have not experienced the Wifi issue yet. If I can get a heads-up on how to induce it, I can look into it. Great work on the Rom!
problems im having
The rom itself is near perfect to me...I give thanks to all that put the hours and hardwork into this
I am a complete noob so any help or answers I will greatly appreciate. The only trouble I have from rom so far is if I'm using the browser while its plugged in.. might be a bad install after all. I really jumbled a few things like not making a nandriod. So I'm kinda stuck with with out a return to stock option...I have been trying to work through this but im a bit unsure how to get a stock Back on here. ..????? Any help....... back to rom I love thrillseeker 3.1....I been testing what I need in a rom and well I couldn't be happier that this rom seems to to do the job and then some....everything works perfect ....like I said the only thingthat seems fuzzy is when I plug in to wall charger and then it gets glichy.....
cpu
I adjusted sliders as well the second one seems to revert back to 100mhz often so its not a permanent fix. It does help....
Yeah. Funny thing. My phone broke (cracked screen), so I did an exchange at best buy and this rom works just fine on the new one. I guess my old one was kind of janky on the inside.
