Hi guys,
I'm using a new AT&T Galaxy S2. It seems as though whenever I install a custom kernel other than stock, eventually my phone gets slower and slower and crashes. This includes the daily kernel from Entropy, as well as the basic CWM one from codeworkx.
It doesn't matter what ROM I'm using (I've tried a few), but whenever I'm using a custom kernel, it will work for a while, but then stop. It usually works for a few hours or so. However, after this, the phone will freeze. I'll do a fresh restart, and then it will fail to load a lot of my widgets, and start to freeze again.
I've tried this maybe 9 or 10 times, with consistent results. As soon as I flash stock kernel, it works perfectly fine (I ran it for about 4 or 5 days on stock with no slowdown).
Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks!

I bought Samsung Galaxy Ace for my daughter and installed custom rom, everything was fine, worked so fast and smooth.
She was using Facebook when phone/screen became unresponsive. No matter what, reboot/battery remove, its still not responding.
Something like that happened when I took phone first time from box and started registration and etc. But it happened few seconds only. During the rooting, then flashing custom rom everything was fine.
Now, I am trying reboot and once it was responsive but then still stack.
The other problem is this phone I bought from 3 Network UK and now I can't find any stock rom for it. I was searching several hours for it, no luck. I want to return it to store but I am afraid if I'm not install 3 UK stock rom they will not take it back.
Please, if you have same experience about screen unresponsiveness, or have know where I can get 3 Network UK stock rom 2.3.6 version will be great.

I am also new to these modifications and stuff. However, just like any thing with processors, for me I think it would be about the ram and stuff. You need to free up some space I guess for you to get the phone running good again.
If this helps, check this thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427612
It is already included in most custom roms.
I know you already know this, but if for some reason, you may need more info. Check this out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145
I hope this helps though.
Thanks for quick response jangs_momoi!
I tried first link and installed it. Also I tried several custom roms but no luck. The screen is still unresponsive, other buttons works, I meant phone is working not freeze but screen is not.
Even if I try flash stock rom, it doesn't helps because I need 3 network stock rom not european one.

I really hope someone is able to give you a link to get that stock rom you need. I believe the screen is really the problem.
Thank you very much for you help. Yes, I hope someone will know link for stock rom, I still searching for it but nothing yet.
Have a nice day.
You have a nice day too.

Did you try reflashing original rom using samsung kies?
Sent from my GT-S5830
Hi all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100, which is Rooted, and is Currently Running "Pure ICS v7.2" and kernel "Siyah v3"
just after i rooted my phone about 4 months ago, i stuffed my phone up a bit, and i had to reflash a new firmware to get it to work again, but ever since then, my phone has always been really sluggish and slow, and lots of apps keep force closing. i have tried heaps of different roms including: Pure ics v7.2, Checkrom v38, stock XXLPH, and a few others. but they are all the same. i have also tried the kernels: Stock Sammy kernel, Chainfire, And siyah v3 and v2, but nothing has worked, i tried restoreing a CWM back up of my original rom (the one that was on my phone when i got it) but it did not work properly, they were all the same - Slow and sluggish, and apps force close.
i was wondering if anyone knew what i could do to get my phone working again. because when i first rooted my phone, it never force closed and frooze or anything, it just worked perfectly, it only started not working properly after i flashed a status bar mod, and the phone got in to a boot loop, but i fixed that, but it still does not work properly
i have read what other people have said about the kernels and roms i have used, and they all said that it worked great, and that they got not force closes, but i keep getting them.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help
Cheers Corey

How about flashing your stock firmware and perform root again. Maybe you can get the phone working right

Did you remember wipe?

Hi, i've been experimenting this problem for 2 months. I've got CyanogenMod 9, but before I flashed Cyanogen Resurrection 4.0.3 and I formated everything as possible (Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik and format /system). The battery doesn't lose charge when I restart it.
Thanks!
So, what is your question..?

If any of you have the same problem and know the solution. I've read other messages like mine, but I'm not in the same circumstances. I haven't got any apps except social (whatsapp, twitter...) none of my apps it's draining the battery I simply don't know why my phone shuts down by itself
You're running stock kernel right? Have you changed anything at the Performance-menu at Settings? And when do this reboots occur?
Have you tried flashing for example CM10.1 to see if the same problems come up? You could make a Nandroid backup to try this.

Thanks for the answers. I have the stock cm9 kernel. I don't touch anything at the performance settings. Actually, this problem comes from a couple of roms more. AOKP, ParanoidAndroid, and another one 4.2.1 which I don't remember the name. I've tried a stock ROM before but the performance was not good at all, freezes and slow work at general. Thanks.
Make a full wipe (4) and go as stock as you can. Try it for a day or two and then go back to custom.
You wanna see if it keeps going off on its own, don't worry about performance just yet.
If it does it on all roms you've tried its obviously a hardware issue.
Try a different battery, if that doesnt help then send it for repair.
SGS2 power off issue
Hiya,
I have been running and updating Resurrection Remix and Siyah/Dorimanx kernels for awhile now and this worked fine up until last week. After an update to Dorimanx 7.50 my phone started dropping its network connectivity and powering off randomly, i then updated the Kernel to a new verison hoping the issue had been address (8.3 to be specific) after which my phone wouldnt even go through the boot sequence properly.
After a bit of fiddling i have managed to install an Official JB ROM, (details in the image attached) and network connectivity now seems to be ok, but the phone still powers off...ALOT. Anyone else experience similar issues and find a solution?
Note: I have ordered a new battery in case that is the issue as suggested above, but just checking incase theres something im missing while I wait. Also, the phone is about 16 months old.
Sv: [Q] SGS2 turns itself off
Check your fuel gauge chip. Reset it with siyah or dorimanx kernel.

Hello first of all I would like to thank all the great developers for the great ROMs out there.
Second I would like to warn everyone that this is a "first world problem rant" that I'm about to write up with a legit frustration I have.
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S4 from ATT and the only reason I got this phone over any other Android phone is the great camera and the screen.
I absolutely hate TouchWiz. It's bloated, slow and painfully ugly (to me). For this reason I decided to try out Flashing roms.
For the last couple of weeks (months maybe?) I have been using Cyanogenmod 10.1 stable with not many problems. Mostly camera issues but no biggie.
My frustration is the following: CyanogenMod has had two stable updates for my phone to go from 10.1 to 10.2 and, though it flashes perfectly, every time I reboot the phone the phone gets stuck on the "Samsung Custom (lock)" screen and I am forced to go into TWRP and reflash 10.1+Gapp from my SD carfd.. This happens EVERY TIME. With CM10.1 I can restart the phone just fine by the way. It's 10.2 and other Roms that make get stuck on the Samsung Custom (lock) screen.
So i decided to try out Gummy ROM because Kit Kat
I put the ROM in my SD card, Formated, Wiped and Installed. Worked like a charm until the camera wasnt working that well. I read the forums and said to restart to fix the camera.. Guess what?...AGAIN....Stuck on Samsung Custom (lock) screen.
My frustrations is that pretty much EVERY Rom that I have tried minus CM10.1 has done this to me and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
I have tried battery pulls, waiting 30 seconds, wiped dalvik, cache, etc. Fixed Permissions....everything and I have to reflash the ROMs almost 99% of the time unless I use CM10.1. I am tired of reading forums to fix this so here I am asking for your help.
NOTE: Most, if not all of these ROMs are designed for ATT.
/endrant
I have no idea what else to do so any help would be great.
INFO:
Current ROM: Gummy 1.1-11-21-13-UNOFFICIAL

I have no idea and I'm not about to restart phone and go through the pain of reflashing the ROM again as I just did. I will punch so many babies if I have to do this again!'
Thanks for listening.
I had the same problem and switched to Philz Touch instead of TWRP, I like TWRP a lot more and most people say its more stable, but that's what fixed it for me.

I have read, on CM's site somewhere I believe, they recommend using CWM for a recovery. I use 6.0.4.4 and have no issues with getting stuck at the boot logo. There was an issue with that but CM addressed it in one of the nightlies about two weeks ago.
I had that issue when I had a newer twrp recovery I have the .2 whatever one and I havnt had it since.
HI guys,
My tablet is giving me issues with my wifi all of the sudden.
It was working fine and now it just says Turning on Wi-Fi... this never stops.
I have a Huawei Mediaoad S7-301u
Any ideas how I can get my wifi back up and running?
A restart should do. If you don't have to do this too often. All custom roms for the Mediapad should exhibit this fom time to time, stock rom is too long gone to remember, but if you're still using it you found the answer for that.
Usually it should happen after wakeup from standby, and if it occurs several times a day, another rom may perform better, also increasing screen timeout should help.
If wifi is completely gone, restore a nandroid backup or recover the stock rom via dload method, if there's no custom recovery, which would prevent that. Custom rom and no backup means doing a clean flash.

I have done a few restarts and I have also reinstalled the same rom. I am starting to think it is the rom, it seemed buggy from the start.
Which rom would you suggest?
Stability-wise it's the older the better. Stock rom and After Silence's CM10(probably gone forever) . He developed the kernel Zyr3x was also using, whose roms got buggier and buggier. Zyr3xs AOKP, maybe, that was my first custom rom on the Mediapad, but I don't remember the bugs there were. Some, but not many.
