Isn't this the BSOD everyone always goes on about?
Apparently it happens to a lot of people.

No idea... I bought my phone at the earlier earlier batch, where it is pack in bubblewrap... LOL!
Anyway, at 2.2.2, still same problem. Doesn't want to get custom rom, as after my exam, i'm going down to LG and get some servicing or shyt out from them...
The problem exist especially when you are charging. It occur also when you put your phone to sleep while running on GPS. Very fedup with it.
It is categorized in Freeze and Reboot Problem
It's the first stage of that problem, if you continue using it, you will suffer the reboot problem

solution to some bsod models. Tested, working!
Many p990 bsod models have faulty soldering of some sort. A solution which have worked for many is to simply plug in your charger. When your phone goes to sleep and doesnt wake up when you hit the power button, just leave it be for 12+ hours. Place your phone on something soft as well, like your bed. This will heat up the device and fix the faulty soldering. If it does not work, try longer period of charging. Good luck. (I will take no responsibility if this does not work as planned)
This was tried on a bsod model which went to unresponsive sleep every 5-30 minutes. After this procedure it was faultless

I've had my LG for quite some time now and I still trying to figure it out. So, if you're patient enough, please, just bare with me for a while as I explain what I've tried so far what what were the results.
A lot of people complains about this phone... unstable, crashes, reboots, BSOD, etc...
The first problem I had, came with the stock ROM... after a while the Wi-Fi just stopped working and it would display "Error..." as a message. The only solution was to reboot. 3 or 4 days after I had bought it, this was already killing me... so I started trying other ROMs but all seemed to suffer from some sort of problem except for one (see phone info below), which I've been running since June and I find it impeccably stable I can basically keep my phone running for as long as I want, as long as the battery doesn't run out (obviously), which brings me to a second point... battery drain!!
The battery drain was the only problem I didn't manage to find a solution for... and after a certain while, even though my phone was stable, having to charge my phone every single day was becoming very annoying.
Since I live in a different country than my GSM operator, it doesn't come as a news flash that network look-up has a big impact on the battery life, specially because I live close enough to the border to be able to keep the signal but in some parts of my house the signal is lost forcing the phone to search for a new network, which sometimes it finds (roaming) and sometimes it comes back to the original network and so on... However, what I find, unarguably, to have the biggest impact on the battery is having the Wi-fi enabled when there's no available network, it's just huge, it can suck up the battery in a few hours...
So, I decided to try some of those power management apps such as Locale, Green Power and some other, in order to minimize these problems, but curiously, they all caused the same problem... BSOD within a matter of minutes. I installed the app, configured it, waited for the phone to go into sleep and puff... it was gone. The only way out of it was removing the battery. I uninstalled the app, and the phone was stable again... this happened with every single app of the kind, that I have tried.
At the moment my phone is as stable as it gets but if I don't pay it enough attention, the battery dies in a blink of an eye.
Model number: LG-P990
Android version: 2.2.2
Baseband version: 1035.21_20110614
Kernel version: 2.6.32.28-mck-r14-ocuv

I can't put my finger on this issue I've been having with my Note.
Don't get me wrong, this device is a godsend!
The problem I've been having is that sometimes when I take my Note out of my pocket and try to press the unlock or menu button it doesn't show anything on the screen. I've read about people having issues with delay before it pops up, but it doesn't pop up even after 10 seconds or a minute, it feels like the device 'hangs' or doesn't want to wake up. The only way I can turn the phone on again is by pressing the unlock button for like 10 seconds and the phone reboots.
I thought it was a problem with Green Power, I thought it maybe had issues turning off the wifi or data when the screen was locked and that the service would cause the OS to crash or 'hang'. When I look at my battery history after the reboot it shows that I lost a significant amount of battery (5-15%, depending on how long it took for me to 'discover' the crash) and there's a 'jump' in the graph.
Things I've tried:
Stock rom - problem persists
Different kernels - tried all the kernels available in the market including stock, problem persists
Add a bit of paper between back-cover and battery (to make sure it doesn't lose contact)
Checked if there was dust between battery connections
Tried different sim card
Tried disabling wifi and data all day (mysteriously persists)
DIfferent governors (ondemand and interactive) (the phone reverts to default governor after the forced reboot, normal? i have my phone set to interactive on boot, but somehow it skips that after the forced reboot)
I've attached a picture of the battery graph. According to the stats there's a 25 minute gap where the phone was 'stuck' and you can see that the screen was on and active for that duration.
There are NO funny apps running in the background, this is is a clean install with some standard Samsung apps frozen.
tl;dr version: phone randomly won't wake up; battery loss after forced reboot;
I might have found the issue myself. Now when I come to think of it, I think it always occurs after I've been in my car for like a 30 min drive... Maybe the phone is having trouble switching networks? Anyone know what might be causing this?
Or better yet, how can I research this issue? Can I enable some logging somewhere to track this?
I had the note for about 10 days and today, about 1 hour ago it happened to me for the first time. I tried the home button to wake the screen but nothing, tried the power , nothing and holding the power but nothing happened. I had to pull the battery.
I had this problem in the beginning, but no more.
It's one of two things, in my case. Restoring apps (with data) from Titaium backup, or SetCPU or both. Do a factory reset, reinstall apps without data. If using setCPU, disable it for a while to see if it happens again. It's been over a week and the problem is gone.

I was using System Tuner instead of SetCPU to freeze apps and change governor, maybe I've just been using the wrong app? I deleted it just in case. Will see if the problem persists, thanks!
The nasty thing about it is that it seems to happen randomly (but it most likely doesn't) and is pretty rare (happens once every 3 days).
Still, I don't like the fact of not being available for X amount of time, even if it's 30 minutes.
I'm on stock room and unrooted. Like I said first time it's happened.
i've had the GNote since 4 days now , and yesterday same thing happened as the device was in my pocket and i couldnt wake it up at all , battery pull solved it.
im on stock , non rooted
I can't believe that we are the only ones with this issue. Anyone else? OR better yet, how did you resolve it?
Dont know if this is the same issue as the streak had, but with the streak if you kept it your pocket with the screen facing your body this would sometimes happen. Flipping it so that it that the screen doesnt face your body in your pocket solved this issue.

Thanks for your reply. I did some research, and apparently it had to do with static being built up in the screen from wearing it towards your body in your pocket.
This issue was that you couldn't swipe the lockscreen cause the touch screen wouldn't respond. The problem we are having is that the screen won't even turn on and that the system locks up.
Same issue here with my 2 days old Galaxy Note, that's how I found this forum. In my case it went from not waking up occasionally to every time WIFI was ON (I did some experimenting with settings to see which one could be the one causing the problem). But then...occasionally it would not wake up even with WIFI OFF: very annoying. And this is my first Android, so I didn't have any custom anything, pretty much same as out of the box when I got it The only solution was to reset the handset. And definitely has nothing to do with having it in my pocket as I don't carry it in my pocket. Rang Samsung, they told me it was faulty, I returned it. Now I'm concern the next one is going to have screen issues? As so many people complain in this forum? we'll see.
My issues have been resolved after flashing AbyssNote 1.4 and when I stopped using System Tuner. I've started using Voltage Control instead and now I'm not even having problem @ 100Mhz undervolted 50mV from stock.
Same problem with my wife's Gnote, totally stock, just a small handful of apps installed. Happened twice, about a week apart.
She does a lot of travelling, maybe you're right about that. But it happens after she gets home when it's still OK.
Had the same same issue twice in two days and had to do a battery pull, just did a master reset and re -installed the applications manually, so far so go.
YOu guys think its a hardware or a software issue?
Hmm.. Happened to me too about three times in the last two weeks. I am on stock rom but rooted, and running Green Power. Hopefully samsung will fix it in the next updates. Seems like a software bug to me. Maybe not enough juice when in deep sleep?

Hello
its the problem of your kernel. try Abyys 1.4 and use XDA Superpower to adjust the CPU-Frequency automatically

It's very well possible that the stock kernel has faulty settings for the CPU. Haven't had the problem again with AbyssNote 1.4 and Voltage Control (even with custom cpu frequencies)

at this point we're just guessing, there haven't been any official confirmations of the problem as far as i know.

My N6 is running Android 7.0, have not had problems until a couple of days ago.
The right half of my display started scrolling while, the left side of the display was normal. I powered it off and back on a couple of times and, the issue was still there; I panicked and did a factory reset from the "Settings" menu hoping that would solve the problem, it did not; I still had a jacked up display.
Is this a failure mode that anyone else has seen?
I powered the phone off and, turned it back on with the volume control button pressed and, it booted into safe mode(?) then, I toggled the mode to "Restart" and, upon restart, my display was normal. This was not the end as, it will occasionally be split screen when I unlock it. I have discovered that sometimes if I receive or make a call the display will return to normal, if not, I just power cycle it into the safe-recovery mode (but not do anything else) then toggle to restart and, it's all good until next time.
Is it possible that another device (blue-tooth) in close proximity could cause my phone display to act up?

So weird, but same thing has been happening to me the past few days. But I have a justified cause. It started immediately after installing Franco Kernel.

It is a known hardware issue in some N6 phones, some have it and it only shows up on certain rom / kernel combos, even stock. One thing that helps is to use the interactive kernel governor and/or the down sampling factor. Of course you will need a kernel manager app for that.

That's good to know.
I inserted the Bluetooth question because, coincidentally or not this issue presented when I acquired a wristwatch ($19.00 from China) that connected to my phone via Bluetooth, It had it's own fitness app which I installed (which did not work). To me, there seems to be more "connection" than expected as, the fault thing only seems to happen when the watch was powered on (but not even connected via Bluetooth). If there was a bug caused by the companion app, that should have been taken care of by the factory reset.
I'm going to do some "scientific testing" by, not powering on the watch for a week and see if the issue reoccurs. Meanwhile, I will read up on kernel manager apps.
I've since flashed stock pn, and now elementalx. It's not acted up yet. Seemes to be a better performance kernel. We'll see how battery is. Sorry to hijack your thread!

Well, so much for "scientific testing" and wishful thinking.....didn't take long to eliminate the wristwatch, now to fix the problem.

Ok so today I have found out some different problems with my phone and I wonder if somebody happened to acknowledge them as well.
1. If I am using my phone will charging, the touchscreen goes insane. If I press the back button, all three buttons are "pressed" in the same time. It doesn't respond anyway normal to my commands. I thought it is a problem from the charger, I switched to normal charging and the same.
2. When I activated the wifi after plugging the phone off, a voice in Polish or something said something for like 5 seconds. A robot voice. Weird and creepy.
3. It seems laggy that never before. SwiftKey seems laggy and daily use as well.
Any of you had those problems?
1. Nope
2. Nope
3. Never use SwiftKey .
I actually had something similar to 1 after the latest update (.328) but reboot resolved it for me and never happened since.
1.May be a hardware problem
2.Ghost in your phone that seems to be polish
3.Factory reset Swiftkey
now there is a problem. since updating to 325, I found the wifi is off every morning when i woke up. Not a big issue, but I'm getting quite annoyed after 3, 4 days needing to turn on the wifi every morning.
Hey all just checking to see if anyone has same issue, it is persisting beyond an update. I plug in for night and usually every morning screen is off. Takes me holding down power button for ten seconds for it to come back. Not sure if I'm rebooting phone and it was on or if it was off.
Same here. Got it 2 times. No idea!!!
Exactly same issue, happens every 3-4 days.
I have same problem. After last update, that hapoend 3 times already. I wonder why...
Guys you have to search before posting. Here is the topic i made a while back. Have had this issue since then and i notice it because i have the aod (always on display) and the screen disappears.

Which of these are you guys using? Maybe we can deduce if its an app or some firmware issue.
From your list I'm using only Spotify. However I'm afraid that my phone was turning off even before I got this app. Will check anyway (already uninstalled it), and will let you know.
What I can say for sure is that my phone is switching off completely (not only display) as all my Bluetooth devices are disconnected straight away.
Hope we will find a solution for this issue!
it happened to me twice as well, having the phone for almost 2 months. It is a bit annoying and I dont understand why it happens. Among the list of these apps, I only have Spotify installed as well.
I dont have any apps from Your list. My phone turned off twice since last update, before that, for 1 month everything was ok. Now seems good aswell, we will see.
Seems like its none of the apps. My phone also completely disconnects from my devices and none of the buttons work (like double press volume button for camera). Have to hold the power button for a while and it starts up.
My Always on display is off
Random phone off was happening before the update and it's still happening after!
Also at times phone send to be so sluggish! 7gb+ram still available at that time.
North America 12gb/512gb.

Ok, this issue together with the reported complaints of dust in camera lens has made me hold on the purchase of this phone.
Isn't there an official ROG II forum where all of you can complain so Asus can look into this issue maybe request dump files and resolve it once and for all?

Well my doesn't randomly turn off and I'm using blockada if that sheds any light...
Also, I don't use Spotify
I have deleted all the apps. Literally done a reset to the factory settings to see what happen and this morning phone turned off again... That's really annoying.
I have found relevant topic on Asus forum: https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/12715/rog-phone-2-12-512-freezes-and-auto-restart-problem
Looks like they are not fully aware of the problem....
Is there any update for this case?
I'm experiencing random hangs as well after updated the firmware to the latest. It reads my power button and will shows the options to reboot but the UI is totally not responsive, have to hard reset it Everytime.
Since factory reset everything seems to be fine, however it's just few days since I have done it.
09/12/2019 - I can confirm that after factory reset everything works fine. If anything change I will let you guys know straight away.
02/01/2020 - Annnnnd it's back... After few weeks phone started switching off again and tbh the whole thing intensified. Yesterday phone went off 9 times. On top of that when it's off it drains battery like crazy - 5mins and 20% is gone. Bluetooth doesn't work properly as well. I'm aware that others don't have any problems with ROGII, however I'm afraid that due to personal experience I won't buy Asus phone again and won't recommend it to anyone.
Rog phone 2 turns off automatically
Same problem here happened twice in 2 days everytime phone is off i have to hard restart to switch on the phone
Does anybody got any solution for this problem
Yes I have faced a similar issue since I have updated to android 10 beta. This happened once. I left my phone for charging and the screen blacked out. I had to press the vol up+dwn and power to restore the functionality. Strange.

What version of beta you use?
It happened to me twice in three months. The smartphone got stuck/freeze in standby mode: no response from the physical buttons or touch. I use the official android 9 rom.
I managed to restart it with the power button and volume up/down pressed for 15 seconds.

Mine started turning off after 1 minute of use. Couldn't stop it nor control it.
Managed to barely get the WhatsApp backup and then factory reset the device. So far things are ok. But setting up from scratch is a pain in the ass.
I suspect that I tried to enable twin apps on WeChat while being on Nova Launcher. That may have triggered something, But I'm not sure.
