Ok, before I get crucified, I have searched and I haven't found anyone having anywhere close to the same issues as I. My last phone lost 4g after rooting. I couldn't get it back till I restored to stock. Flashed radios, roms, and wiped cache, data, and davik cache. Well, I finally raised enough of a stink to get an NIB thunderbolt. Rooted then had the same issues with 4g going out. So finally I tried something I didn't try before, I reflashed the mr1 upgrade rom from J's root thread. I got 4g back, but now I have issues with it shutting down randomly. It's not a reboot, it's more like a sleep of death. I can only fix it with a battery pull and reboot. I'm not overclocked, and I haven't even used setcpu on the mr1 rom. Is anyone else having these issues? Also, when I first received the phone and used it unrooted for two days until I had time to root it, it was plagued with random reboots every hour or so. I loved my new phone and didn't mind it until I started having major usability issues. I can't deal with a phone that can't stay on all day and I'm not sure what to do at this point. Does anyone have any possible explanations for what I'm experiencing?
I have this issue but I am pretty sure it's hardware related. Sometimes if I put pressure on both ends of the phone and bend it a tiny bit, it will shut off. Might not be the same thing as you but that is what is causing it for me.

Sleep of death? Haha, yeah, I've got the same issue. Screen refuses to turn back on, but I know the device is still running since my notification light keeps blinking. Only solution is a battery pull. Happened twice today.
I'm running dasBAMF 2.0-5.
Ok, well I guess its good to know that I'm not alone.
Well, I guess if its hardware I will whine a little more to Verizon.

Yep. I too have experienced the sleep of death at least half a dozen times. I experienced it a lot on MRs. at the time I was running Gingeritis beta CO and Imoseyans kernel OC to 1403mhz.
I've been running on MR2 for a week now with Gingeritis final and Imoseyans kernel.... and haven't had one spasm.
Rooting doesn't disable 4G. Did you make sure your original TB radio wasn't set to CDMA auto (prl) in settings/network before returning it?

Had the "sleep of death" happen today for the first time. Rooted on candy rom 2.0.3. Happened as soon as I got into a 4g area while driving.
sleep of death aswell here. Not often.
there is a new gb radio out MR2.5 ...running great so far..

I've been getting SOD occasionally as well. Happened once on stock rooted, several times on gingerBAMF, and on BAMF 1.7 as well. Often it has happened while asleep to find phone unwakeable in morning, but still on. The last day or so I've had market downloads seemingly trigger it as well. At least it did it while updating apps....No physical triggers have caused it. It's never frozen in my hand as previous poster mentioned.
I'm scared it's increasing in frequency. Guess I'll see how MR 2.5 works when I get a chance next.
I didn't say that rooting was the cause. Just the series of events. It wasn't until I flashed new roms that I started having issues. I have gone back to mr1 upgrade and gotten 4G back, but now I have the sleep of death issue.

I may try this setup and see if I still have issues. Thanks for the feedback.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Mine has only frozen while using once. Most of my issues with the sod have been after being in sleep for a while.
Thanks for all the responses, maybe one of the devs can chime in with some advice as to what we need to do to fix it.

I did have a simi random reboot issue this morning or o think so. I was making coffee and heard the phone vibrate than screen. Went off and rebooted. I was running gingerits with twisted and imo kernel at 1400/184 smartass extreme. I think that was the issue cause I set it to 1400/240 interactivex and have had no issues and got 16hrs outta of my 1700 batt with heavy usage.

+1 sleep of death
^_^_^
It's happened to me twice, once yesterday and once today. I have never had it happen until I flashed MR2.5.
i'm 3 days free of any more SODs after wiping to death and flashing MR 2.5 radio. happy days again. I hope. Probably just the wipe and not restoring any app data at all that made it better.
1. Screen lags to turn on even though I adjusted the minimum clock frequency to 768MHz.
2. Phone will randomly reboot, no specific/apparent cause, because it rebooted on me in very different situations. So yes, the reboots are completely random and I would like to stop them/prevent them from happening.
Again, I really appreciate any and all help with this, thanks in advance.
Flashing the ota mr2 radio fixed my random reboots. I experienced random reboots stock, stock rooted, and bamf 1.8. Then switched to cm7 and the above radii and reboots have gone away.

Hi Guys,
Im no Genius when it comes to android, but I have done my fair share of programming before, but my SOD are killing me and a last resort is a warranty exchange as I cannot be without a phone.
So far I have been getting SOD about 5 times a day if not more, and I am one for tinkering with gadgets until i break or crash it, fix it and doing it all over again.
But anyway back on topic
I have noticed this in the build.prop
" persist.ril.mux.sleep=2 "
And so I wondered if this is causing my SOD, does anyone have any ideas regarding its uses?
Findings (as of 2155)
In my testing thus far I have changed it to "persist.ril.mux.sleep=1" using phone leaving it for an hour doing it over just for fun, And I have been SOD for 5 hours straight and haven't had any SOD or adverse battery drain
I mean this may not be the cause of the SOD for me, or anybody but I am up for trying just about anything
What is SOD?

Sorry, Sleep Of Death
I have SOD here too. To me it's only happens when I turned off a data connection (3G or wifi).
I use LoadMonitor app as a workaround for a while, with success.
At now I'm using Neutrino 2.5 CM7 ROM with success too. I think it's more a blur rom problem than cm7 one.
Let us know about your progress.
So if you disable load manager you would get SOD?
I am making a script to update a few things so far no SOD for me, after a few tweaks
What settings are you using on load manager ?
Any info you can give me will help in me tracking down some of the errors and temporary fixes people are using to avoid the dreaded issue
Oh, THAT's what that was!
I forgot to turn the wifi back on a few nights ago when I said "Hey, let's watch some movies on netflix with my super-duper mirroring-abled phone!" So an hour into it, LBE Privacy warns me I'm about to max out my data, and I go turn the damn wifi back on but turned OFF the 3G.
Then last night I go to wake up my phone and the screen is "black but on", & took a couple of tries to wake it. I'm on Nottachtrix.

I'm a bit confused here. I don't know what "load manager" is.
What a sad is I used LoadMonitor app (from market) as a workaround.
LoadMonitor just monitor taks that are running in your device. But it have an option that claims to prevent device deep sleep. So, when I checked this option my device don't get SOD.
It's a workaround, as I sad, and I don't know how LoadMonitor do that.
What is load manager?
Thanks
I had a similar issue, I installed SetCPU and set my minimum speed to ~456(faux 1.45 Kernel).
Never had the problem since.

I tried some roms and the only one I hadn't random reboots was jokersax11 alpha7 (ICI), now I'm on beta 0.2.0 and had reboots.
I'm having the same problem. I've tried 3 different ROMs. I used Nottachtrix, following the directions to the letter with reboots and hard locks. Recently I flashed back to 4.5.91 (w/pudding) and I was having the same issues. I noticed that on the hard locks, my phone appeared to be warm, so I used SetCPU at 216MHz and still had hard locks and random reboots. I've not set the lowest setting at 301 and so far I haven't had any reboots, but its only been about 5 hours. But I was having them at least once every few hours.
BTW - I also noticed that I only had the freezes and hard locks when the phone was running on the battery. I rarely had problems when the phone was on the dock or USB charger, however, I did have reboots when it was on the wall charger.
Another program you can try is call 'Wake Lock' available from the marketplace. I haven't used it yet, I'm still experimenting with load monitor.
Wake lock has a few different options and has some really good review.
I confirmed that Neutrino 2.5 CM7 Rom works great without reboots.
That's a patch you need to apply to correct a battery drain problem of the original version. Notorious544d are working in a 2.6 version including that patch.
To me it's working like a charm. I'm testing for two days but, of course, everyone needs to test it in your own device.
PS: Follow this instructions to install a battery drain patch in Neutrino 2.5 (or wait for a 2.6 version):

I was encountering that problem for a while but then I figured that something went wrong when I was flashing CM7 Beta. So I flashed Aura's ROM, and then Reflashed CM7 Beta and only experienced it once a month at most after that, Hope it helps

Atrix SOD & Random reboots related to Wifi?
Does anyone know if the Atrix SOD & Random reboots are related to WiFi. I've had my wifi off all day and I've had no crashes.
I'm going to run it for a few more days without Wifi and see what happens.
I don't know about other guys, but wifi and 3G was the cause of my Atrix SOD and reboot problems.
Solved it using Neutrino Rom CM7 based.
See you!
Still working on my SOD issue, but recently, I disabled most power options, turned off wifi, rebooted and I've been running for 2 days with no crashes. After day 3, I'm going to turn wifi back on reboot and see what happens.
Update 1
After 3 days with wifi disabled, I've had no crashes, no freezes or random reboots. I'm going to enable wifi again and see what happens.
Update 2
After turning enabling my wifi and using it briefly then turning it back off, I had a random reboot later that evening.
The more I used my wifi, the more frequent my crashes became.
Interesting side note
I can enable all my radios when plugged into the desktop charger and I won't experience any crashes, however, if plugged into to the AC charger, I've had reboots and freezes.
I just wanted to share this to help others trying to stop random reboots. I have at different times experienced random reboots, battery drain, heating, hangs and sluggish performance. Yesterday my Amaze got to the point where it would not stay booted. I flashed different ROMS and made changes to the CPU governer settings. Every time I flash a ROM, I either Super Wipe or wipe all but SD. I checked batter contacts as others suggested, but still issues.
Finally, I tried removing the SD and the reboots completely stopped for hours. When I put it back in, they started again. I deleted the Android folder on my SD and have not had a reboot since.

First of all, my phone is running jellybomb version 2, freeza beastmode kernel 2.0 and cpu running at 2.7. I've never had problems before until one day I downloaded a file that had a virus, so I decided to do a restore using twrp. The restore failed and my phone and it got screwed, I've tried several methods to get it running again and I finally found the solution. I flashed the brickbug file and it was fixed. Now I noticed that sometimes when I restart the phone, it won't restart, it just powers off. There are also times when my phone just blacks out and freezes and I have to do a battery pull. There are also incidents where after boot up from a restart or battery pull, my touch screen won't respond. It's really weird. I dirty flashed to jellybomb version 2 from version 1, I doubt that's the issue since these problems started happening after I flashed brickbug to fix my phone. Anyone know what could be wrong or a fix? It's not a huge issue since my phone works fine most of the time, but it gets a bit annoying when the problem does happen. Last resort would be wipe absolutely everything and start over..

Honestly my phone does the same with occasional random reboots and lock ups requiring battery pulls (Even the power button-menu-power up didn't restart to twrp) and even then restarting doesn't usually go without a hitch. Even when I was running stock root my phone would get stuck at the yellow sprint screen from time to time and I'd have to go TWRP and wipe Dalvik and Cache, then Dalvik again to get it to reboot.. The only reason I didn't unroot was was because even when my phone was new and out of the box, stock it wouldn't reboot cleanly all the time.
It got a little better after the firmware updates but it still hasn't gone away entirely.
I do expect it to get cleared up eventually but for now just take it as a fact of life with this phone.

Sounds like its the beastmode kernel issues. Flash version 1.8 and see if that fixes your issues.
I would run the MJ4 tar via Odin to start totally fresh.
I am having a similar issue. my phone will just reboot on its own and freeze up a lot. i dont think its the kernel because it has been happening ever since i first installed the jellybomb rom and had a lite kernel installed. now switched to beast 2.3 and still having the same issues. im gonna flash 1.8 and see if it gets any better. but people are posting positive results on the 2.3 . dont know what to do. its frustrating

Before going through all that mess, toss on a stock kernel and see if your issues go away. You'll narrow down the issues right quick.

My phone has been doing this from the time i took it out of the box on October 4. It was ever worse then, so much so that I returned the phone exchanged it for a new one. The problems continued and I questioned my decision to upgrade to the Note 3 but then the firmware upgrades improved things a little.
I can tolerate the issues now and I do expect them to go away on future updates

2.3 is the shiz, bro. I know some have issues with it, but for me it far exceeds even 1.8. Even with no overclocking, 1.8 would do odd stuff, like go to off when I'd selected restart (plugged in or not), &c. With 2.3, I've yet to run into any issues, the phone behaves as I've directed it. I overclock it using profiles in SetCPU, and the cores stay cool. With 1.8, no such luck.
As to Internet shutdowns, I have found that the browser plays a role in things. Having never used the stock browser, I switch mainly between boat browser and chrome, and both will occasionally freeze. Long back press to kill is my fallback.

what your describing
Your phones should run flawlessly all the time. I would take issue that when the phone starts acting buggy, it's just normal for this phone.....I disagree with that, there is a issue somewhere if you have these issues occasionally.
Just my 2 cents
Well it took my slack ass a couple weeks to flash the stock kernel due to my issues. and after a few days my phone hasnt randomly rebooted. So i take it my phone is not liking the BEAST right now? This is just some poopoo.
