Hey I hope one of you guys can help me.
I have a galaxy s running cm10 and I have had this persistent problem with my phone turning off automatically.
When I use it, I press the side button to turn off the screen and it is fine for a minute or so, but if I leave it any longer than that it turns off.
I have heard of something called Deep Sleep, is this the problem?
Is there a way to change how long it has to be locked to go into deep sleep?
Please help
I am losing hope
Cheers

Sounds interesting i know this from the first custom roms i tried a year ago!
Which build of cm10 are you using? Any "faulty" app installed? for me dropbox made cm10 instable and laggy, so i stopped using it.
Have you checked the md5-sum of the .zip file of your downloaded rom? Maybe the download was faulty... Happened to me twice on cm-nightlies.
Cheers
EDIT: Which kernel are you using? For me Stock-Kernel ist aboslutely rocksolid! My phone had 140 hours ontime this morning, before i flashed the newest build.
Hi,
Is you IMEI ok ? I had this problem with CM10 too but now my IMEI is ok I have no pb at all
have you overclocked your phone? i had the same thing happening with other roms...as soon as i had overclocked and turned the screen off, my phone got stuck after a while. try cleaning nstools settings. if that doesn't work, you might try turning off deep idle if it's active, could also be the reason

Hey
Where is deep idle?
I have no idea where it is and ive looked everywhere in settings.
Do you have photos?
That would help.

Okay, let's start from the beginning :silly:
Whats the exact name of the rom you flashed?
How do you flashed it? (Wipe, etc.)
Have you flashed any other stuff? (Inverted Gapps, Battery mod, Kernel, etc.)
Have you many apps installed?
If i where you, i would flash the newest build with a full wipe, so you got a new, bugfree and stable system
same issue
I have been having the same issue ever since switching to CM10, I have been installing nightlies hoping it will end, but appears to be isolated. Would it help to manually flash boot for each ROM? It cuts off randomly and won't turn on unless charged by a wall charger, or other high-power input (doesn't turn on or charge from car outlet). It doesn't appear to be caused by an app.
Did you wipe when installing nightlies?
If you try to go stock with Odin, and the issue is exactly the same, I think you should consider it could be battery malfunction.

You can get it here: http://get.cm/?device=quincytmo&type=RC
Seems stable. Everything working so far.
I guess I need to go check it out. I'm still on the latest monthly.
As far as I can tell, it is caught up with the nightlies as far as features go: Camera timer, stylus gestures, whatever else is new. Everything I've tested so far works, wifi tether, bluetooth etc,
Yeah, so far so good. It seems pretty stable and fluid. Haven't checked battery life. I noticed on the last nightly that it took longer to charge the battery.
Battery life here seems very good. Very smooth, not getting lagginess that was in a couple of nightlies.
Had a couple of instabilities with a couple of apps. Reinstalling them seems to have fixed the problem. Time will tell.

I was about to say that I haven't seen any bugs with this latest release, but then I thought for a second and remembered that I had a weird screen issue where my screen was flickering, and then went black until I restarted the phone. It only happened once, so I didn't think much of it. I expect a few bugs with any ROM no matter how stable/baked it is.
Here is a bug report for graphical issues. Now is the time to report any bugs that you see.
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-1057
Never saw a blue screen until I used this one. Random reboots also, something I never dealt with before.
Now there's an RC2. Trying it now.

So then could you and anyone else who've seen the issue sign up and vote on the bug report here: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/CYAN-1125
Either that or add your own comment and log if you have. Hopefully the devs will then see and fix the problem.
My random reboots seem to have gone away, but I still have the issue of where BT won't turn on unless I reboot, or reboot twice.

Now i'm getting freezes and reboots 5-6 times a day. Today I could hardly use my phone. And that was even after doing a full wipe this morning and reinstalling the latest nightly and Gapps. I think i'm gonna roll back to a version from a couple of months ago if I can find one and see if that helps.
I did go to that dev page that was suggested earlier in the thread and signed up and voted up this issue. I hope it gets the ball rolling.
I'm kinda disappointed. I know these are nightlies and aren't supported, but i'm really used to Cyanogenmod putting out solid builds, even for their nightlies. A few bugs I can deal with, but this is unusable.
Well the night lies are getting worse. The RC1 and RC2 for me are usually OK for a day or so, but the more time goes by and the more frequent the random freeze and reboot.
Back on M3 and that's OK.
error when installing
when I try to install the zip file I get this error "assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device)...." this is just the beginning the type is small and its hard to read- any suggestions? Some searches I've done say this error shows when the ROM is for the wrong phone, but don't see how that can be. I have the T-Mobile Galaxy Note for sure. Thanks for any help that I can get. Since it seems like T-Mobil is never going to upgrade OTA to Jelly Bean I really would like to get this ROM.
Just making sure. You have installed the TWRP recovery? Can't do it unless you have installed this first.
#2. You do not want this ROM(s), read the thread, nothing but problems. My suggestion if you want a custom ROM, is to download the M3 CyanogenMod. Here is the links. http://get.cm/?device=quincytmo&type=snapshot

I was using Clockwork MOD. I will admit I'm a bit of a Newb with this custom recovery stuff. I went to install Goomanager on my phone, but when I reboot it reboots it into Clockwork MOD. So do I need to uninstall clockwork MOD somehow? I will try the other ROM you mentioned, but I think I had tried that one as well and got the same error. Of course this was using clockwork MOD.
Thanks,
John

It lists several ways to install it. Try them all, one will work.

So M3 is stable enough to use? I couldn't remember whether it was M2 or M3.
Yes M2 and M3 are stable enough for daily use. Actually any nightly from that time is good too. It wasn't until after M3 that things took a dive, and didn't get any better with RC1 and 2.
Only problem I'm aware of is a bug with the Bluetooth on off toggle that affects some. If it happens reboot or force close Bluetooth share.
Hi everyone!
I have a strange problem with my Droid 4: sometimes it stops playing sounds (or music, or ringtones), and I can't figure out if there's something in particular that triggers this. Anyway the only fix I could find is rebooting the phone.
There's another problem though: when this happens, if I try to use the phone app or the contacts app, the app itself hangs before I can do anything. If I kill the hanged app and retry a few times, the phone reboots itself.
Any idea on what could be causing this? What could I try to diagnose the problem?
I'm using a Verizon-branded Droid 4 with CM10.1.3, but I had the problem on 10.1.2 too. If it's relevant, I had to install "Tobby's mod" to enable GSM (I'm in Europe)
Many thanks for your attention!
This is the only and the known problem with droid4 on cm10.1 cm10.2 but I have a very good experience with the latest nightlies using buildprop editor to change only the telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0. Don't use the patch and se if it helps for you.
Sent from my XT894 using xda app-developers app
I have that property "zeroed" already, do you mean I should try reverting Tobby's mod?
Try the latest nightlies, there are some changes regarding to apns, it's updatable from cm10.1 and make only that change don't apply any patch.

I've seen this on stock, and I think it's related to bluetooth - perhaps it's not releasing the audio properly after a device disconnects?
There's an app in the Play Store called "Earpiece", and I can use that to bring the audio back when that happens by switching it on, and then switching it off again.
HTH.
Steve.
I don't use bluetooth at all, but I'll try Earpiece, thanks
the problem is that it will crash before you realize and you will loose the next call, so I don't think it is of some use.
I tried latest nightly and safestrap 3.65 (from 3.63) and I had lots of black screens, several on one day and then I realize that before, I had it working stable on cm10.1 when I found out that noop was the problem, cfq and deadline was ok (after speaking with hashcode it made the default to cfq) but it was on safestrap 3.11, but then newer versions of safestrap appeared and I updated it and from time to time it started to go bad again.
I reverted back to 3.11 and I have it working ok since 17.11.2013 (almost 2 days of stable, finger crossed)
I would ask hascode if safestrap can be a problem, but now he has retired in supporting the d4, of course this can be applied to razr

Ok, now I'm on a 10.2 nightly, with just the lteoncdma fix... Let's see how it goes
It took a while to connect to the GSM network, did this happen to you too? (The signal strength icon even changed to a question mark at one point)

the 05 fromm stargo is not so ok, the previous was stable, or at least I didn't had problems.
I'll try the 07, I have problems with deep sleep and I don't know why, because for now wakelocks can't be accessed on 4.4, then again is not a new install, is an upgrade from 10.2
the strange thing is that now I have another error in catlog when it goes out of sound compared to the error when it is on the gsm patch, maybe I'll try a test without changing build.prop at all, in the end it doesn't matter if the signal icon is wrong as long as it's stable.

Hey! Joril! I posted in your other thread, on another forum, about this same topic, but I figure that I'd get comfy here, since the Droid 4 "scene" has seemingly migrated from DroidForums to this website.
Anyway, I haven't been able to fix the problem. In fact, at one point, when the audio died, I went through the typical steps - I turned off Bluetooth, and reset the phone. However, when the phone was "coming back", so to speak, an "Android is upgrading" box popped up. Odd, I thought, since I didn't do anything different. Anyway, it gets through this, and... I get an UID error. Something about the UID being inconsistent with the system, and that the data partition was terribly unstable.
So, my phone was freaking out. Great. I was missing several apps, and the whole device is incredibly unstable - apps are crashing, left and right, as well as background services. It is at this point that I decide to bite the bullet and restore my phone to stock settings.
I do so. I use the Droid 4 Utility, restore the stock ROM, getting rid of Safestrap 3.11 in the process. Everything's back to normal. Stabilized. I commence to rooting the phone, installing the latest version of Safestrap, and installing CyanogenMod 10.1.3. I get it running, and... the problems remain. I still have the same audio issues. MMS is still iffy. GPS is a hit-or-miss process; every once in a while, if the planets align, a system reboot will "fix" GPS.
Anyway, that's my story. I've been doing some research - or, rather, a lot of research - and it seems to me that the audio problem was, perhaps, fixed in the latest CyanogenMod 11 build. Something about the previous code not playing well with the "Audio HAL", whatever that is, and the Audio HAL issue being consistent with other phones with the same processor, I believe - or something to do with an "MSM8660". I believe that "MSM8660" is a Snapdragon processor, but I could be wrong!
To make a long story short: CyanogenMod 10.1.3 seems to be stuck with the audio/crashing issue, but CyanogenMod 11 may fix it. I'm not ready to make the jump to CyanogenMod 11, though, not until it is FULLY stabilized and out of Experimental/Alpha/Nightly status. In that regard, I wonder how open Stargo, Hashcode, or another coder would be to patching up 10.1.3 with the GPS/MMS fixes that have been seen in the later builds? I don't know how to code, but it should be relatively simple to patch the few crippling bugs remaining on 10.1.3, using code from future builds and versions.

Right now I'm on a CM10.2 nightly and the audio issue appears a bit less than when on 10.1, I'd say once every 5/6 days instead of once every other day... Anyway I'd like to wait a bit more before trying CM11 too
CM11 has this issue also, but the error will not be the same if the build.prop has only lteoncdma modified, for me, if I apply the full gsm patch the error will appear more often and catlog will show the cpu pegged error.
the problem with CM11 (for me) is no deep sleep, the sound issue is not so important anymore
Hey,
So my dad isnt exactly satisfied with the custom ROM I flashed on his device, he needs to wait about 4 - 5 seconds (!) when theres an incoming call for the screen to turn on. The ringtone will keep on going off during that few seconds, but the screen will be black.
So I tested it on my Nexus 4, and no such issue has been spotted by me. Although, on his device, no matter how many times I tried, the issue was never gone and I had to wait a couple of seconds for the screen to turn on so I could see who's calling.
I'm not sure whether it is a kitkat issue or not, I tried 2 different roms, first BeanStalk, and now CyanFox, both had the same issue.
I also tried to flash CM10.1, but the keyboard kept on crashing after a fresh flash, wipes didnt help (maybe someone could give me a hand here?).
Another question is, where can I find some good call recording app? the ones from the play store aren't good, they only record one side of the call, never both
tl;dr:
is there some setting that I should change for the screen to turn on quicker when theres an incoming call on kitkat?
what to do if I want to downgrade from kitkat to jellybean?
is there some GOOD call recorder app around?
thank you

actually no, STOCK 4.1.2 didnt have this issue, it started to show when I flashed 4.4.2 on it, is there some sort of fix for this or do I have to downgrade to JB? I'd rather stick to KK as I prefer it more.
on the other hand my dad hated google hangouts and he wants the stock messaging app back, I guess I can only go with CM
also I cant install a keyboard from the market, because I cant even log in to my google account, I cant get through the setup without a few things crashing over and over again, every second or so. the keyboard doesnt even show up
delete the latinIme.apk from the zip file you are trying to flash and substitute it with one from the other roms you tried flashing.
I know how to control the delay with which the ringer starts but not screen :s
These commands I think only help when call ends but it doesn't hurt to try, add them (or check the values if already present)
to build.prop in zipfile before you flash it
Code:
ro.lge.proximity.delay=5
mot.proximity.delay=5
I am on kitkat right now and have no lag issue...have you tried changing kernel?

well I tried it out, the rom is nice and all, but my phone is extremely slow, the lag issue with phone calls is back, sometimes turning the screen off is impossible, or takes up to 2 minutes (!). turning it back on isnt much better either, I dont know what the problem is, the same thing happened on the BeanStalk ROM so I assume it isnt a software issue, but a hardware one, do you have any ideas what could be the problem and how can I solve it?
I want to tell you my experience about custom roms.
I don't know if you tried this combo: CM11 + kicos kernel (modified iodak's kernel) + minimal PA gapps
I works for me very well.

yeah, but shouldnt all the 4.4.2 ROMs be quite snappy? doesn't kitkat reduce the hardware requirements? why would JB work fine (or so I think, I'll go back to stock in a few mins and see) and KK be laggy as hell?
I've got a theory, I'm not a hardware guy and I dont know if I'm right or not, but:
could be that one of the cores is damaged and the system tries to switch some tasks to the damaged core (if android handles different cores the way I think) and that core doesnt really work the way it should, causing the entire system to work like a granny?

This is probably some wake/lock problem with software. Also on my o2x i've noticed strange lag when i press the power key it has lag until the screen comes on buttons below the screen light and after a couple of seconds the screen. It has 4.3 CM rom there if your father is using this phone i would suggest you some stock based rom with custom kernel. They should not have problems like these.

could be, however, it isnt only for the power button, when the screen is off and a call is coming, it needs a few seconds for the screen to turn on, after the call is done, the system is all choppy and laggy. Turning the screen off after that is also nearly impossible, due to power button malfunction. I went back to stock for now and I'll see if the lag is gone, if it isnt, then its probably a hardware issue.
edit:
yeah, I'm on stock 4.1.2 and the issue isnt gone.
crap.
sounds like a problem in the timing the processor uses for scaling frequencies...
hav no idea what could be causing it unless you have some kernel tweak app and set wrong values
Have you tried clean flashing the Roms you installed? Have you Factory-Reset, Cleared cache, cleared Dalvik cache, and maybe did a system partition format before flashing?

Hallo,
I am sorry, to post it here, but I cannot post in the related forums below 10 posts.
So I had 4.1.5 and it was great. I flashed 4.2.3 now and it was great until after pretty much one day, when it becomes slow, had the same issues with 4.2.2 (becomes slow after a day until reboot or downgrade to 4.1.5) where I downgraded again, but it is not possible anymore without resetting the launcher3 due to some changes.
It will crash repeatedly.
Any help?
Kind regards

I've been using CM based Mackay ROM for a long time now, updating to every new version as they have been released, and have not experienced anything like what you are describing.
Also, you should have really posted in the Mackay ROM thread...

@neox456! I am not sure I understand your problem fully. I have been using the same ROM since it came out for Kit Kat but never had a problem such as yours.
Could it be the no. of apps you have in your phone ? Or maybe because you aren't using low mem option (which was a feature of Kit Kat)?
It'd be good if you could explain your issues a bit briefly.

Did you install CM10.2 (stable) or CM11 before Mackay 4.2.3? This increases your partition giving you better performance and is recommended for KK roms. Try again with 3 wipes plus Format System first, then the CM11, 3 wipes and format again then the Mackay Rom. If you get into trouble, go back to GB 2.3.6 with ODIN like you did when you first rooted your phone and back up from there. Hope it works for you.
The difference was between 4.1.5 and 4.2.2/3. But I played around a little and the main difference was, that KSM was on with the later ones and not with 4.1.5 so I am pretty sure that slowed my device down after a while.
I'll try 4.2.3 without KSM now and see if it won't slow down.
I cannot answer on the official Mackay-Thread until I reached 10 posts!
neither can I yet...
Naaah, it did not really help...
But I guess it is the KitKat slow downs... it is not as horrible as 4.3, but still far from well usable.

Very strange.. I went all the way back to GB 2.3.6 then CM 10.2 (or 11) then SlimKat and it works really well with no FC or lags. (well maybe say max 2 second delay opening Whatsapp but I can live with that. Plus they all seem to have a 1 or 2 second delay when a call comes in for the screen to register.
Well... I am not sure... Maybe it is too many apps. At least they are not constanlty crashing like in JB4.3.
What about waking up the phone for you? Do you have a 2 seconds delay there, too? Well I sometimes have a more like 10-15 seconds delay. I press the power button and nothing happens and after a while you notice the phone is ready, because the LEDs are glowing and funnily you can already unlock it, although the screen does not show anything yet...
Well and sometimes it is only a few seconds...
I have always used CM or Mackay-CM... not sure, whether the other ROM will make such a big difference...
I had lags with CM in ICS so I went to Liquid smooth by aways .

I like that one, no problems opening apps or answering phone call. Pkus he uses semaphore and the Nova Launcher which has a nice look and feel. Pluis customisable.
Then after to SlimKat, (after increasing partition using the CM11) which works pretty good. I will flash the mackay rom or the omni this weekend to see how it behaves in comparison.
I am down to CM9 (still Mackay) now and happy with it. :angel:
Some features got lost, but I am happy, because in general it is way more useable.
