Im using stock from 2.3.5.
Lately, without installing anything special im having the weirdest thing ־ suddendly without doing anything the volume of speaker goes from 100% power to 20% power.
In settings - sounds its exactly as it was before, on the highest volume possible. But every sound the device will make is very low.
Once that happen it can either go away after a short while by itself or I can reboot the device and then its gone. Till the next time...
Its happening a lot lately.
Im using speedmod kernel k2-13.
Im using it for a long while too.
I tried doing complete wipe and only used titanium backup for user apps batch.
Still, not working.
I thought at start its kernel related but no one else using speedmod reported such behavior.

Have you wiped cache partition and Dalvik cache in recovery mode after flashing the kernel?
If not, then just do it now.
Alternatively you should flash the latest SpeedMod K2-18-test7 kernel.
After flashing always start recovery mode and wipe cache partition and Dalvik cache to prevent most FCs.
Good luck !
P.S.: Have you installed an app for controlling some system settings?
Or maybe a kind of extended power saving mode or app?
If the cause of this issue is not the kernel, it could also be something different on your phone.
So, have a closer look at your apps and system settings, too.
I have wiped cache and dalvik before kernel change.
Also, the only thing new in my device is car home app but I don't think its related. I don't understand what else there is with the settings.. it seems like I covered that section.

Hello guys,
To get right to it, everything was fine when I was on MIUI 2.5.18 but when I updated to 2.6.1 the issue started happening. I will try to explain the issue to the best of my ability.
About 4-5 times a day my phone will just out of no where become ungodly slow as in it takes the phone ~45 seconds to recognize a touch on the screen or push of a button. So when this starts I have to reboot, and normally I have to Hard Reboot (hold power till GT-i9100 screen appears). I was running Neak at the time so I switched to Siyah and it as still an issue, I also updated to 2.6.8 but that did not help either. Last night, I changed to AOKP thinking it may be a ROM issue and even on the stock Kernel I still have the issue...
At this point I believe it may be a phone issue. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you fix it if so? Should I attempt a flash back to Stock and run that for a while and see how it goes?
I will try and get a video today if my room mate comes home.
Thanks in advance!

I had the random slowdown issues with NEAK - but never had that on CM9 or Siyah kernels and not on ktoonsez's MIUI kernel as well.
Basic stuff - did you do a complete wipe - cache, dalvik cache, format /system and ran Jivy's kernel cleaning script just to be sure?
Does it happen during a certain activity e.g. opening a certain app or anything else? Do you have any memory management apps installed?
May need to try the cleaner script but yes complete wipe with both cache's and system when I went to AOKP
and no its totally random just when ever it feels like it. As far as memory management I went through the agonizing long steps when it was slow and only about 500mb of memory was being used and only on occasion does it go over 600mb
What are some good memory management programs?
There are so many variables I would say flash back to.stock completely, (wipe first obviously) then see if problem persists. If it does then u know its a hardware issue.

i had a similiar problem on my captivate after installing a eurokrank rom. i found that if u have the govenor set to powersaver it made my phone really slow/ laggy. once i changed it to ondemand or performance it picked right back up. maybe tinker with that and see if it maybe clears it up a bit
Cleaner script seemed to work! Never thought I would ever have to use it but oh well.
It has not happened all weekend, so we will see how it goes the rest of the week!
Thanks again guys!!!
Anyone using CM10, does your phone ever experience any lockups/reboots during or after a phone call? There's been a few cases where my phone would reboot during a call, and fail to make any calls for a brief period of time after. I can make or pickup the calls, but I can't hear anything and the other end can't hear anything. Rebooting or powering off does not resolve the issue, and it somehow starts working again sometime after I give up with it. It's been getting more and more consistent with the latest updates, and happens on the stock kernel, h0tcakez, and KKO.
Just wondering if it's my phone or CM10
All the jelly bean roms do that to my phone. I think it may be lack of an official jb kernal. Might be wrong about that, but I think I read that somewhere.

phone lock up
I have epinter's 2012-10-11 ROM for the Atrix 4G and occasionally I will not be able from the contact list. But the direct phone dialer still works. Sometimes reboot fixes it; sometimes not.
I get the exact same problem, and it drives me nuts, every time its happened the only fix has been to completely wipe the phone (unroot, rerooot etc. etc.) Driving me completely nuts. Also, the issue is present in both CM9 and CM10 and seems to happen at random.

I had one reboot during a call but thats about it. I been running this rom since 12/27...u might want to use FJ's kernel. This is how I flash all roms and it seems to have less or non reboots on JB. After you have flash the rom and ur device boots up, I go back to recovery before setting up my phone and wipe cache and dalvik cache and fix permissions. It seems that by doing that before setting my device, . ...helps a lot. GL

No clue what the problem is, but over the last month my randomly phone gets into these periods where it absolutely crawls and almost stops responding entirely. Can only be fixed by rebooting. Latest JB OTA (98.72.16), rooted.
I have tried going into the task manager and killing apps but nothing seems to work. I've also frozen a few of the suspected offenders (such as Facebook) but no help there either. Cleaned Dalvik cache, booted to recovery and deleted cache too. I finally did a hard reset but the problem returned within a week.
How can I troubleshoot what app(s) are doing this? Is there stuff in the development menu that could be helpful?

try flashing an ota based rom through BMM. eg rage rom , jellywiz or even dwiz 1.0
Same here on 982.124.14 Vodafone retail EU. It's driving me nuts. Thinking of switching to CM10.1 to see if that's any better.

U may only find more instability on cm. But that depends from phone to phone. Best choice right now is stick based roms. Cm will take another 2 weeks min to get more stable

Today i wiped cache/dalvic cache/battery stats, then i started browsing the XDA Forum, suddenly the phone froze,then for two seconds a continious clicking noise appeared near the camera /cpu?/,after that the device restarted,but very quickly-without showing the siyah logo...This has happened once before, i was using ICS 4.0.4 with stock kernel...
Currently i'm with JB/siyah 6.0b5;
The device seems to be working just fine now,but i'm a little worried.Have you encountered this one before?

Nope, the only time I've ever heard a clicking noise was using the CM torch, I decided to try the 'high' setting. Clicking started so I turned the torch back to normal brightness. Never had it since. Keep an eye (ear?) on it.. If it happens again then I'd flash a fully stock ROM & see if it happens on full stock. Have you undervolted/overclocked at all? Could be something to consider if you have.

Yes, I have undervolted with two steps, using CPU ADJUSTER, but for the last three days the phone was OK.And the first time this thing happened to me I didn't even know what is undervolting...It could be from the kernel, I just flashed JB with Siyah 6.0b4 (the previous version)...I'll see how the device behaves without undervolting...If it happens again, i'll flash fully stock rom...
Since root I constantly lose my ringtone settings and see the memory card disconnect & connect. I have done a restore to the day I rooted & haven't done anything to it aside from changing font & freezing apps but it is still happening. Anyone have any advise or should I just try to unroot? If I have to unroot is there a best way to do it?

afaik the only way to unroot would be to use the flashtool to flash a stock ftf
edit: or maybe use the Full Unroot option is supersu, but Im not sure that returns you to stock completely like flashing a stock ftf.

I guess my first question should have been is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Not experience this. If you haven't tried a data wipe I would give that a try. You'll spend less time setting your phone up again than you would trying to figure out why this is happening. Just one suggestion. Hopefully someone has a better answer

I would do the data wipe from the stock sony/android recovery rather than the dual recovery. I read something somewhere by someone who knows "things" that a wipe from stock recover is more complete.

Just beware that wipe from stock recovery should nuke your internal storage so have things backed up
Thanks for the warning. Did the wipe & set everything back up. Disabled apps as opposed to freezing them for now. No other changes until I see how it goes. Then will take it one change at a time. Block ads. Xposed & camera mod. Etc.
Thanks everyone. I'll let ya know if the problem is still present or what sets it off.

Here's hoping all goes well
OK. Factory reset from stock recovery, wiped cache from dual recovery, reloaded basic apps, disabled several & all has been working great.
Installed Xposed & 20MP Superior Auto then the phone will no longer go to Airplane mode or shut down the wireless connection.
Again hard reset, wiped cache, reloaded the backup from before installing Xposed...still won't shut down the wireless & go to airplane mode.
Can't imagine either of those would change the Airplane functionality. Not sure where to go from here.

It was the Setup Wizard! Disable or freeze that & Airplane won't work. What the hell? Time to try the 20MP Superior Auto again.

Good find
try wiping data and factory reset once again. i was also having the same problem but resolved by factory reset two times.
Memory card issues seem to be gone. Reactivated amplify & greenify the other day with no issue. Still need to turn on ad blocking.
Only issue I have now is the audio through my headphones keeps going out. Think my beats headset finally **** the bed. Now I have to figure out a decent pair.
Any suggestions?
I liked beats but some people say it is a gimmick when compared to "good" headphones. What's the best in your opinion?
