Take it back to stock rooted and see if you still have errors. If your saying your having this problem on every ROM then it could just be your phone. I've never had a problem and I flash all kinds of ROMs.

setcpu cause freeze issue in somecases and also swiftkey may give you troubles that I saw from other posts. If your phone is a gsm, returning to stock maybe your best option at the moment anyway.
my phone is cdma sprint service
Mine is stock everything, and I get this freezing issue once in awhile. But its like only the screen responses freeze. Meaning if I try to scroll down on a web page, or sideways on the main screen...it won't do anything. But if i press the apps button, or other "buttons" on the screen... it senses it.
Well I took off setcpu and its been working fine so far going to give it a few hours and see what happens it just sucks I paid for setcpu

I am having this same issue. I have tried several different ROMs and kernels with the same result of the screen doing its own thing and the buttons becoming unresponsive at the bottom until I turn off the screen with the bottom on the top of the phone, which then allows the buttons at the bottom to be responsive again until the problem starts again.
I have also updated my firmware minus HBoot (2.08.651.2 Firmware Minus hBoot.zip) with the same results.
Any suggestions?
I too am having major problems. at first i thought it was just MIUI but no matter what rom i flash my buttons are unresponsive its hard to even unlock my phone like it just doesnt register that im touching it. Ive never had any problems like this it started yesterday while picking a song from a playlist. i would give more detailed information but i cannot get to my settings.
I'm having this issue. Random freezing. I have to pull the battery to reset. Very annoying. This is my third replacement for asurion (after I cracked my screen). I hate this.
I Was having Freeze Problems but Not Lately... If you try the AndroTECH Rom you Might have a little Better Luck...

Hi first of all sorry about my English.
Ok my phone has an at&t froyo i just install superuser, slide loading, the weptop hack and the sim unlocked.
I'm using spb 3d launcher and every time i do a restart it seems that the spb it's working on his on, if a let it awake charging some times it's go to some shortcut like if i press it but i didn't (that didn't bother me too much ).
but two days ago one part of the top of the touch screen stop working i can't select the shortcuts on the top of the screen. and yersterday the phone got possessed and start opening thinks randomly. i just uninstall spb and it seems to stop with the gibberish. but today it's the same i can't use phone because i just simple touch the screen and it start again with the gibberish movements.
i'm going to do a restore and i if that fix the gibberish but the part of the screen that doesn't respond is what i worry the most. I'm from Tijuana, Mexico i buy the atrix on craiglist from some guy in san diego, ca. he said that the phone was warranty until feb 2012.
Please help any one
I reset my phone and still the same parts of the screen does not respond and the screen start shaking and doing thing uncontrol.
Please could be sw or is the hardware and i need to change the phone.
Sounds like a hardware problem.
Not sure what the problem could be.....there's a girl I know who's had similar problems, I'll ask her or put you in touch with her. Sounds like yer digitizer?

I am having the same issue, this was on CM7 only flashed yesterday and then I tried to restore my backup rom and this has the same issue??
Hope someone can sort out the problem.
It sounds like a hardware problem in which you should;
A) buy a whole new screen and install it (they will give you the tools to take it apart)
B) Send it back to Motorola if you haven't voided your warranty by unlocking the phone
or
C) this is a long shot as I do think it is hardware related, you should try this fix just to be sure that it is a hardware problem. Mind you this will do nothing more than refresh the .pds file that affects the touchscreen. Touchscreen fix!
definetly sounds like a broken digitizer to me
I have taken my phone in for repair(Not a official MOTO repairer) and I just got a phone call, he believes it is a software issue? I am not convinced, because I have tried 4 different roms? He said he is going to format/wipe phone. I told him I have installed roms to replace software and I thought that this would wipe/replace software problem?
Anyway I guess, I will found out if it sorts out the random screen movement and widget press?

I got the phone back yesterday, all working ok.
I quickly broke it again by trying to install a stock rom and then root it, but it introduced the same random screen/widget issues(I tried wipe/format, but no good?). I then install 2 custom rom, CM7 and Aura and I still had problems, then I install HomeBase and problem has been sorted. Have no idea why it fixed the issue just happy it is fixed. Just to have refrain from installing other roms......for now anyway

I spoke to soon, last night it started the random screen judder and random widget pressing.....
I am not sure what is going on....I've had the phone for about 12 days now(second hand from eBay) and for the first 4-5 days the phone was fine. I then installed CM7 and for about 12-24 hours the phone was ok. Then the random screen/widget issues happened. Did many, many wipe's/formats of various roms and all these issue occurred more or less straight away.
Then I installed HomeBase and for about 6-8 hours, all was ok until lastnight. I guess it is either new motherboard time or new phone time....
For the last two days my phone has been anything off at random... nothing has been changed... I'm on the cm9 nightly from the two days ago... this is the thing tho... If I gentely tap the phone it will shut off or shake it... so I figured maybe after time the batter is lose... but it also is turning off if it sits completely still...unless its playing music. It has not turned off since Round 8 ad I have just had it playing music this full time ...any ideas??
I already did a full wipe and re install and when I get home I'm going to Oden back to stock and redo everything.

My only suggestion at this point is odin back to stock 2.1.
Unfortunately this sounds like symptoms of hardware failure. I had a phone (cliq) which would do the exact thing as you described...the phone would vibrate shut off and reboot unexpectedly. I would open the physical keyboard and it would also shut off...this is totally hardware related from my understanding. But that is the worst case scenario.
Hopefully it is a software related issue in your case. Not much else i can say.

Overclocked? Voltages changed at all from default? If you have anything set in voltage control or setcpu, get rid of them and try it. You could also try booting into recovery and see if you can reproduce the problem. That should also help determine if it is software or hardware related.
If the phone is plugged in it does not seem to reboot. i have not had time to mess with it i will check it out this weekend. Weird because it only seems to be doing this at work? I have not had it restart on me at all while at home.
Also if i have the music playing it will not turn off. This weekend im going to oden back to stock and see how it goes. otherwise gonna try to deal with it long enough till the gs3 comes out, ha.

Hey guys, so I just updated my att galaxy s2 via kies to android ICS however after that I've ran into some problems.
After updating however I encountered a period where the screen went black and the phone kinda just died on me. After restarting I began to encounter some problems. For some reason, whenever the phone goes to sleep and and then wakes up, my screen gets flipped upside down and the screen gets really bright. Despite that, I still have to press the screen like usual. Which means that if the call button is at the top after flipping, I still have to press the bottom of my screen. Also the screen isn't perfectly flipped and there is space above the top bar.
However, the phone does work fine on bootup, and only fails after it sleeps. Also, very recently my phone just went through a screen repair after the screen cracked under the glass, but otherwise that I have no clue what's going on.
Is this just a poor repair and a hardware problem or is their another problem here?
Also I've tried a factory reset and that didn't help.
Thanks for any help you can give.

There are alot of things that could go wrong when flashing ROMs.
All of the custom ROMs here have built in safeguards which allow users to recover from issues involved with flashing. The same cannot be said about stock builds.
Unfortunately, your options are limited if you're going to stay stock. You can either try a factory reset and re-installing the update via KIES or you can call AT&T. That's pretty much it.
Personally, i'd Mobile Odin a rooted package with CWM and start flashing some of the wonderful work the developers have graciously allowed us to partake.

OP, I agree with the sentiment here, but you can't use mobile odin until your are already rooted. One option you could follow the guide linked in my signature to root the phone and go from there.
My personal suggest is that if you're running stock ROM, updating an official stock ROM and having problem, I call the provider for help.
My download and install went fine but I incounterd some unusual problems afterwards. My phone doesn't always keep a data signal while browsing the internet and a phone reboot makes it return. Setting browsers home to Google instead of default AT&T doesn't stick. I also had few dropped calls and very low signal bars in status bar at my house which gingerbread gave me full ones.
same here

Hello everyone!
A few weeks ago my phone started freezing randomly when navigating through menus, when turning on the screen or just during stand by. It reboots almost every night and I find it in the morning in the "enter pin" screen. I have been using the Omega Rom series for a long time, and I was using v38 when this began to happen, but by that time I had already been with the same ROM for a long time with absolutely no problem. Yesterday I updated to v39 and the phone is totally unstable, it freezes every 5 minutes and I have to remove the battery.
How can I know if this comes from a hardware or a software problem? Is there any way to log what the phone does so I can check what goes on by the time it freezes?
Thank you very much.

you could try to do a logcat report.
did you try different kernels?
Yes I did, I tried the stock kernel and Siyah too, but I get the same problem. Any other recommendation?
I will get started with the logcat thing, I hope I can find something. Thank you!
My droid4 kep doing the same exact thing when I attempted to listen to my music player, and I ended up finding trojan and I didn't find it with any of the AntiVirus' that you find on Android I ended up finding it with pandas usb vaccine when I plug the phone in to the laptops usb port.. And it doesn't do it at all anymore
I tried 3 AntiVirus ' from Google, AVG + lookout+ .AND avast..!!! Nothing picked it up. :banghead:

if it is not the kernel, I would try to setup the phone from scratch with first, a stock Samsung rom, see how it goes, and if anything is ok, flash a custom rom and test again.
Usually, for me, I do not stop with just a factory reset but use a "mega" wipe to delete (not format) anything related on the phone even if some think this is not necessary.

Hi.
I've been having similar issues for over a week now. And have removed some programs and setting trying to find the cause. Eventually what has prevented freezing is when I turn the screen power saving in power saving settings on. I'm thinking the GPU might be somehow damaged or something.
I have only installed the official updates to the phone. Currently I'm at 4.1.2 NEE.
Ive been using custom roms for ages but got fed up with apps and certain not working so I wiped everything and installed stock ics via odin, I then upgraded all the way up to 4.1.2 via the Samsung upgrade utility but....... now my phone freezes sometimes ive never had this before. ...? Im on ella btu

I have been doing further investigation and I've seen that it is not that the phone freezes, it is just that you cannot have any interaction at all with it. The screen is blocked, the buttons do not respond and the phone does not make any sound, but I know it is alive! I know it because whenever an app is doing something, after restarting the phone by pulling out the battery I see that that process has been completed or if I dial my own number from another phone I get tone, although the phone appears to be completely dead...
Does this situation have a name and a specific solution...?

Hi there,
i've searched the net for help and didn't find anything similar.
my girlfriend and I both using galaxy S3 9300 4.1.2 bought in June.
In the last few week both of us suddenly saw that the phone turns off while it idle.
In most of the cases the solution was turn it back on, but sometimes it didn't help and we had to take the battery off and back on.
today I noticed for the first time that the phone doesn't really off- since the notification led still flashes.
I'm using apex launcher she use TW.
any idea anyone?
I will be grateful,
Thanks
Or
edit:
both phone are stock rom
mine with the UK Rom
Her with the Indian Rom
both 4.1.2 virsion.
I am having the same problems since last week. Sometimes it also freezes in applications. The GUI thread is then still running because I can see animations from loading dialogs and the wifi indicator also blinks. When this freeze occurs, the device won't react on button presses (except very long press on power button to reboot). Also the device is not going into standby mode (screen off) after 30 seconds.
Maybe this is a side effect of the last update? I am running build version JZO54K.I9300XXELLA (Dutch intl version).
Edit: when it's stuck also the battery is drained very fast.
you might be right and maybe there is a connection between last update and all that bugs suddenly appears.
I update through odin to the newest firmware:
I9300XXEMB1 I9300OXAEMB1 I9300XXMB1 BTU
anyone have a clue?

No idea to be honest, are they both stock phones? Rooted? Could even be something inane like a recent app update that isn't working properly, could be almost anything

both unrooted, both running stock rom.
anyway if so, i guess you wont recommend to back all my app, right?
I would back then up, system data is most likely the cause, so my advice would be just restore app data only where necessary and important
