I'm running the newest SC and I keep running into this prblm. I've unrooted and rooted thinking that would fix it. I've ran a pacth file hoping it would be fixed.
I have been reading some post about it and really haven't found the fix or I just missed it. Can some one point me in the right direction.

The right direction would be asking your questions in Q&A.

First off, wrong section... should be in Q&A.
One way to fix it was to get SetCPU, and make sure the minimum CPU speed is 200MHz
You should also give more information. Have you flashed eb01 with odin before installing SC? How often do these sod's happen? Do you use the clock app?

Here is the only answer that you will probably get that will work (taken from the CWM thread):

[SIZE=+1]Most Thorough Method of Fixing Every Problem You Might Have[/SIZE]
If you have an issue with applications force closing or a continual boot loop, a lot of times you can fix this issue by running the Fix Permissions option.
If you would like to see your phone be able to have fully functioning Nandroids, and less problems with permission related errors when flashing different ROM's, I encourage you to do the following (this will make your phone as clean and healthy as possible):
ODIN the full stock EB01 package in PDA, the atlas_v2.2.pit in PIT, and "Re-Partition" checked
Let your phone fully boot into the OS and verify everything is working correctly
Remove your battery
ODIN the CWM Recovery package ROM from this post
While reinserting your battery, hold both the volume keys and the power button down until a second after you see the Samsung boot logo
You should see CWM recovery now
Flash the SuperClean ROM from this post, Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache only.
Reboot. If you have installed the Voodoo ROM, then you should hear a Sexy Robot lady telling you that she is converting your partitions. This process will take 10 minutes or so. If you pull the battery, you will have to start all over again.
Let your phone fully boot into the OS and verify everything is working correctly
If you need to install a theme, reboot, enter CWM and flash theme, Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache only.
Make a fresh nandroid backup. If you try to restore a Nandroid made with the old CWM, you will probably have problems.

If you do this and it still happens, install your apps one at a time. A lot of times it is a faulty application that's doing it (apps that mess with cpu speed/voltage, apps that control power settings, a clock app, and even youmail have all been blamed for it).
Another issue some people have is a certain lockscreen mod with music controls.

Way to be the post police, but that post was completely uncalled for. You didn't help in the slightest bit. At least the person under you had the courtesy to try and give him a solution, while telling him its in the wrong section.

Your post isn't helpful to the forum at all, at least there's some community members who like to help keep our forums organized and clean so our Mods aren't overwhelmed. (See how easy that was)
@ OP, there is definitely a SOD patch somewhere in the Fascinate forums that Adrynalyne put out a bit back. I apply it along with the Camera mod every time I flash any new version of Superclean based on EB01/EB16. I'll see if I can post a mirror later when I get back home and you still haven't found it.
The SOD patch is already incorporated in to the latest SC. Gizmodroid's process (based on Adryn's solution to problems with SC2.7 iirc) is your best bet at this stage and worked for me. I would also recommend avoiding TiB as much as possible based on Adryn's comments in the SC2.9.2 thread. If you use Gizmodroid's process, please post your results in the relevant thread. I'd be interested in finding out the degree to which that process solves the issues generally.
I had the same problem. Follow the directions above flashing the stock and then upgrading and avoiding the apps noted above (I think youmail was a big part of my problem) and you should be good to go.

Thanks everyone for the fast replies even the one telling me i was in the wrong section. Sorry about that
I use both Youmail and the clock app all the time, so thats probbealy why i'm getting the SOD. I also install my apps from my SD card using Astro File Manager and it sounds like that could be causing my problem to.
I installed SetCPU and set the min. to 200mhz, hope that will fix my problems if not
Q1: can I download another clock app and be ok or will it do the same thing
Q2: is there any way of fixing the Youmail app or should I use another voice mail app.
Just want to thank everyone that keeps XDA up and running you guys rock. Love this Forum!
its funny this was posted today since i was literally coming to the forums to post about this very issue.
i have never had the SOD until i followed the instructional to flash back to EB01 with the new CWM.
it started waking slow a day after the wipe and reload, progressively getting worse. i started getting it yesterday bad where i had to restart the phone 4 or 5 times a day to wake it up. then by last night the phone would either freeze, or the 3G or wifi would show as working but i got errors saying no network connection then it would freeze.
PREFACE : FROM MY OWN experience it must be caused by one of 3 things. either the CWM itself, superclean rom, or something with the EB01 file. i have not installed any new programs since the ODIN flash, i did not restore data with TIBU, and i dont use Youmail.
i have also tried reflashing the modem and tried a nandroid restore from the instant i got it running after new cwm proceedure.
its still doing it and has never done it before the flashing.
EDIT: by the way i just realized that my signature here is wrong - forgot to change it.. running stock superclean 2.9.2 with the included kernel, no theme

Are you using the voodoo lag fix?
I think the majority of the incompatibility people are seeing with the fixed cwm is might be some broken compatibility with rfs. It's supposed to be able to handle both, but I think changes in jt's initramfs or changes in the project voodoo files in the kernel that CWM is put into are the root of the problem.
Maybe I'll get some time this weekend to look at it.
In the meantime, everyone should go voodoo/lagfix
yeah giz, im using the superclean "stock" voodoo...
r
tonight im going to go flash happy with the original odin file i used to bump to froyo, and the other old cwm with the broken fixpms and the non fixed superclean 2.9.2 and see if that helps.
i cant be late for work again tomorrow with no alarm from a frozen phone lol

What is the sleep of death?
Update...
I reflashed the original EB01 tar file, modem and the 3/30 red CWM, along with the original copy of the non-fixed superclean 2.9.2 ROM and i am running fine so far with no SOD issues.
As long as this holds true for the remainder of the day I'm going to flash the updated CWM tonight to try and narrow down which of the 3 things i suspect in my previous post is causing it.

created a sleep of death..
so, guess what? i created the sleep of death on my phone, and i know exactly what caused it.. not only that, but remembering back to my last sleep of death experience - it was the same exact scenerio..
i was running EC10 debloated, jt's 4/8 voodoo.. i flashed a theme to check it out.. didnt like it, so i re-flashed EC10 over it, with wiping dalvik and reg cache..
booted fine, however i started to notice clock lag almost immediately.. screen went off, and next time i tried to open the phone, i had to hit the power key 4 times before it would light up.. sounded familiar to me from last time, so i let it go about 1.5 hours.. sure enough, would not wake up.. had to pull battery to get it to boot..
i did a nandroid back to prior to the theme flash, and seem to be running ok.. however i am going to do the "clean" flash again tomorrow back to EB01 again just to be sure..
im convinced that is what caused mine both times..i will also be doing that every time i get tired of a theme instead of just flashing a new ROM..im guessing themes are leaving pieces parts behind somewhere that don't play nice with a ROM reflash over it..
I have been having SOD issues ever since I rooted and got set up on SC 2.9.2. However today, I decided to leave my GPS on and since I did that I have not had any SOD. Granted today is not a perfect example because not 45 minutes went by without using my phone, but it seems to have made things better for now, except my battery drains because of it.
Here is the Tutorial I used for Root

I did TiB but have since uninstalled and used My Backup (free). I'm using GoLauncher and related apps. I do use YouMail and will not stop. I know its redundant but I installed the SOD patch too.
I'm going to try all the bandaid fixes first before re-flashing everything.

I've searched and couldn't find. My bad if i missed it.
So I flashed MIUI and followed the steps of each MIUI rom thread. Everything works perfectly except for one thing. The GPS. It seems that everyone gets the gps to work except for me o.o. well it worked once but after that each time i load up the gps, the app freezes and my phone keeps vibrating. (i have to set the phone to silent using volume keys to stop it) after i stop it every time i hit my home key it vibrates again, nonstop. then everything i try to start up FCs anyone got a solution for this ?
i tried the privacy>reset phone thing but didnt work either.
i've also tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1370910
by the way i tested this with other roms. every rom i tried it on worked. the only roms that didnt are the MIUIs (all of em)
and no i did not drop the phone in water nor is there any sort of damages to the phone.
its happening because you didnt post this in the right section
try reflashing. . . . a good rom. . . . like ics or something.
posted in Q and A. not one reply. i tried multiple roms. every miui/cm7 and the ics rom. same problem.
Try to ODIN back to Froyo, then load GB boot loaders via ODIN and flash the ROMs.Might help.
Agreed with above, when in doubt Odin back to stock

i did ODIN back to froyo. i dont think i tried the bootloader thing though. ill give it a shot. thanks.
I had this same problem for awhile. I used the Yet Another GPS fix and after that I would wipe the GPS data and force it to download new data. This would fix it every time.
THEN today I updated to the new MIUI-112300 and it worked first try without me having to tweak anything.
Good luck!
lams09, please don't re-post the same thread twice but with slightly different names... Anyways, I posted this in the other thread the OP posted asking the exact same question...

I have updated to 2.3.5.418.
I have a few question about it. So far, there is no way that I can go back to 2.3.4 or previous version via sbf, correct? So am I stuck with 2.3.5.418 and Eclipse 2.2?
I am asking this because my wifi on phone is connecting and disconnecting every 5 second.
I am on 2.3.5.418 as about phone tells me.
What fix can I do?
Also I have battery % problem... When I reboot, the battery percentage changes. What can I do for this problem? I can't download GB battery fix, and even if I could, it is not intended for 2.3.5...
I would like to get answer for both problem. Thank you.

No. For whatever reason, Motorola did not prevent SBFing back to previous releases with this soak test or the previous 2.3.5 leak. You can go back to 2.3.4 if you prefer.
The battery GB battery fix *does* work for 2.3.5, you just have to manually push it thru ADB. Check out the thread.
As far as the wifi issue, I'd recommend flashing 2.2 again. Wipe big 3, etc. I haven't seen any issues with wifi connectivity since I've been on 2.2. If it persists, you might want to start from a blank slate, going from a clean 2.3.4 sbf.
I thought the gb battery fix was already present in Eclipse? At least, at one point I thought it was, unless Motorola re-introduced it with this latest patch.
Grrrr Motorola!!!
Sent from my Eclipsed 2.2 phone.
I can't remember exactly, but I believe it was initially *suspected* the battery fix was in 2.3.5 and then after a few days it was confirmed so we had to re-apply the batt fix again. It's also probably compounded by the fact that people are coming from a fresh 2.3.4 sbf.

Well, I can attest to the fact that Motorola reintroduced the battery bug with this latest OTA. After flashing Eclipse 2.2, I used peppermints battery fix and all is right in the eclipse 2.2 world. I also let nitro know about it.

Thank you for quick response.
After reboot, wifi became better, after reboot... No idea what happened, but it doesn't refresh every 5 second.
Now for the battery issue. I cannot acquire GB file, as megaupload is down. (RIP megaupload) And I have no idea what is ADB.
So is there anyone willing to guide me through the battery fix? Flashable zip file would be even better for me. (less likely that I will screw that one up)
Thanks once again.
P.S. I see there has been issue about zergrush root. I am eclipse 2.2 with zergrush root. Should I be worried?

Yes. The update won't install because Zergrush moves some system files. You'll need to SBF back to 2.3.4 and root with Pete's Motorola tools, install voodoo root keeper, backup root, install the update and then run voodoo keeper to reenable root.

bah, I was all ready to challenge you on this one, cause I had seen stability between boots, and even seen it go down. Today I thought I'd test again and it just went from 88 to 99 ;(
how the heck did they not bother to fix that? It was one of the bigger issues noted on the soak test boards for 2.3.4
Probably a n00b mistake, but I just installed ExROM 2.0 after I had bionix 1.3.1 and my gps is seeing 12 satellites, but won't lock onto any of them. Checking with GPS Test app. It looks like other people report gps works great. Any thoughts on what I messed up or what I could do to fix this? Do I need to reinstall or something? I did choose wipe everything in clockwork before I installed this. Thanks.

If I was in your situation, I would first re-flash the ROM, then if that doesn't work, flash the latest SubZero kernel, and then if that doesnt work, go back to stock, flash bionix and test it to see if GPS is software destroyed (like mine was b4, tried every possible solution, nothing, so i waited for a few weeks, didnt touch GPS at all, and then one day, YAY it works again. Sounds like complete BS, but im not kidding). If GPS works again on Bionix, try going to another ICS rom (such as CM9 (it tells you steps and stuff too) or ICSzenwich from rootzwiki.) and then follow the steps from EXrom page. ^.^ Good Luck!
Thanks for the input. I just installed it again exactly as I did the first time and I'm getting gps data now. Weird. Thanks again.
I'm having problems with my T-Mobile Vibrant after update to froyo 2.2, now the wifi is horrible and very slow, i can't download anything, i tried to fix it using this app "FXR WiFi fix and rescue" but nothing happens.
Man, I haven't run froyo in at least a year and a half. Pull up the sticky threads, get root and cwm recovery, then blast PA 2.54-360 on that sumbitch!
I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.
but do you think the wifi problem can be fixed installing a custom rom ?
