CM10 Problems - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I've just instelled cm10 a few days ago,
and it's making me crazy, hope you can help!
Most of the time it works great. BUT when I
play some games or use Facebook, it just
Shuts-down the phone, and when I turn it on
it says it got 1-5% Battery left. (it's not true)
When I plug the charger, the battery level
get's back to where it was.
I've tried updating to CM10.1 and the problem
presists.
so,
1. What's cousing those shutdowns?
2. How can I fix the battery problem after the shutdown?
Thanks!

You installed it with a full wipe?

Have you checked to see if this also happens with non-CM roms?
The first thing you should be doing is counting out a hardware problem so install a non-CM rom like a Samsung stock or based rom.
Also do a clean install or your roms to avoid issues. (Wipe data/factory reset in recovery, ONLY USE IF YOU HAVE A CUSTOM KERNEL/RECOVERY FLASHED).

I came to cm10 from stock, so yes.
CC10.1 - was updated from the ABOUT
menu (OTA update), So I couldn't wipe,
I just did "Factory reset" from Settings
after the update.

There was no Problems at all on 2.3 stock,
So I don't believe it's an hardware issue.
factory reset from the OS is the same as
Full Wipe, right?

calibration might help. Hardly hardware issue.
a korean guy told me so, they are from the future you know; already got the JB and all.
sent, and now this app cra.........

HAHA I know
but What do you mean by Calibration ?

battery calibration, or kernel stweaks.
sent, and now this app cra.........

Battery calibration - yes.
Kernel stweaks - How can it help?
It seems like a problem with the cm10 rom,
Anyone here using the CM10 nightlies?
Can you tell me if yours is stable or
has such isues ?

I think it's the battery info picked up by the ROM. Wipe bat stats to force it start from scratch.

Double post- Sorry

Hey, I've tried battery cal. again - it didn't help.
The main issue though is the random shutdowns not the battery stat.
It mainly happens with the Facebook app, Is it a known bug in CM10 ?

Just an update: I've flashed 2 other Stock based roms and the problem is worse Now!
It shuts down like 10 times a day now, on every screen even on Lockscreen sometimes.
The phone was 100% good before I flashed cm10! Did i do something wrong ???
What do you think's wrong with it?
Help! Please?

Does the screen flicker issues on cm 10.1 effect the phone in long term..Wil it damage the screen ?

[Q] Battery issue - ICS Omega v5.1 ROM

Hi, i've encountered some issue with battery since I installed this ROM.
I had some freeze and when I rebooted the phone the battery level dropped down of 20-30%...Also during the charge the behaviour was not "normal".. I can post some screenshot to made my explaination "visible".
The first time I had this problem, I reflashed the rom after a full wipe (data and cache) and after i hadn't performed the backup but installed the apps one by one from the store..that not solved the problem. I uninstalled set CPU, I also changed the battery...same freeze and same problem...Any advice?
Thank you!
Try another rom .
jje
Go back to GB until ICS gets rid of bugs.

I`m using same rom but never had issue with battery. I suggest you to use phone until battery will be 0%, use until phone will shut down itself. Leave it off and charge battery for 7 hours. Turn it on and find on market battery calibration, calibrate the battery. Also you can try to change kernel. Good luck
Thank you all. I'll try to calibrate the battery (i think that it is clear that is not a battery problem) before changing kernel and then ROM.

Before flashing anything, flash first this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363738

Of course...asap i will try and i let you know.
Thank you.
strange that because im getting better battery life than i did from stock gb although i have frozen all samsung apps through titanium im amazed really. It probably takes a couple of charges to sort the battery on a new rom.
Well...I've performed the cleaning of the kernel..and installed a new kernel. No matter which kernel: the battery behaviour is the same. 30 minutes ago screenshot.
I'm going mad
Have you tried another battery, doing full wipes or reflashing rom

I tried with another battery.
I did a full wipe.
I refleshed the rom after the full wipe.
The only thing to do is change the rom.
For the moment I unistalled some apps (Set CPU was already uninstalled..now I deleted Rom Toolbox)

I agree. I myself am using Omega Ice Cream Sandwich 10.4 still
At the moment the problem is gone...propably it was due to the apps setCPU and Rom Toolbox..both set the CPU.
I continue to check the behaviour..the battery life is about 14 hours...maybe it is possible to set the phone to do better..more battery life...

[Q] S II does only run on MIUI (not on stock or CM roms)

First of all: I have had my S II water damaged some months ago. It works fine that far (exept that the sensor keys are dead). Not sure if there is some other hardware malfunctioning...
Currently im running on MIUI and everything is fine, but recently I found out that no other ROM will work on my Phone:
- Samsung stock ROM runs extreme (!) laggy. Took me about 5 Minutes to go through the menus and enable USB debugging.
- CM9/ AOKP will reset immediately after system startup
- CM10 shows laggy boot animation for few secs, then bootloops
Only other ROM that works is "cMIUI". Which is a CM10 based ROM only with a MIUI userinterface...
What can I do to find out whats the problem with my phone??
Thats weird. Have you tried wiping data before flashing each of these ROMs? Next time, try formatting /system, /data, cache and dalvik cache. Also, have you tried using those kernel cleaning scripts, etc?

Wiped and formatted like hell. I've hit every single wipe/ clean/ format option in the recovery. Also I have installed a dualboot kernel and installed CM as "second rom", where no ROM has gone before.....

I Have tried different Kernels, all with the same effect. What kernel cleanig scripts specifically?

Only one option I can think of is to go back to stock samsung rom then claim your warranty if you have it. Or, make a logcat and paste it here (upload to Dropbox or somewhere then past a link over here) and someone experienced might take a look.
Since you've already wiped everything, I'm more inclined to think that it's a hardware problem now. However, let's hope someone more experienced pops in and helps. Good luck

See two logs below, trying to boot cm9. One with default kernel, one with Siyah. Would be great if anybody could find out whats the issue.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/z7q3wbz1h9uhhvg/logcat_cm9_s2.txt
https://www.dropbox.com/s/r1l9umovmxx7jpo/logcat_cm9_s2_siyah.txt
In both logs the phone booted and showed the Pin dialog, then after few seconds rebooted.
As the Phone had been waterdamaged Im pretty shure warranty is absolutely void Also I think that the problems are due to some Hardware malfunctioning. Just want to know what and if theres some way to workaround.

[Q] Galaxy S3 Random lockups

Hey all
For some reason today my phone has just started randomly locking up. Was running a nightly build of Cyanogen mod from Mid January. Never had any issues with it today.
Ive basically done a complete wipe of the system (/system, data, cache, dalvik, SD card, etc) and installed a newer nightly of Cyanogen mod, but it is still happening. Thinking it may be a hardware problem...
Any ideas as to how i can check whats going wrong?
Symptoms:
- Screen completely freezes on what it was doing. Screen state stays the same too (doesnt dim after a while)
- Haptic touch buttons sometimes work and sometimes dont (if they do work, all they do is vibrate, nothing changes on the screen)
- Tried a few button combinations to try and get it to respond again. Only way to get it goign again is to reboot the system completely (holding Power + Home)
Thanks

last option :- backup internal storage. do a megawipe. install any samsung based rom again.
if that also does not work. bring phone back to full stock i.e there should be no proof that u used custom roms and then try to get samsung to exchange it. sorry.

not full wipe. megawipe. from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832326
hope your s3 is the international version I9300.
If not then u r in the wrong section and installing non compatible roms and mods, that could be the cause of all this.

[Q] HTC Desire X Keeps Restarting!

Hello,
Today I was charging my phone via USB and suddenly my phone restarted, Since then the phone keeps restarting as soon as it reaches the home screen (waits for all the widgets to load) then restarts again.
I am now making a nandroid backup.
Anybody else facing the problem?
Possible fixes?
Thanks
You tried pulling the battery? Or, wipe cache and dalvik cache from recovery?

Tried all those and only then I posted here. I don't want to flash a new ROM now. :/ Had everything setup to my liking.
Can you do a logcat while booting your phone, including the reboot?

Sorry, I got frustrated and now flashing a new ROM.
That's fine then, definitely the best choice...
Random reboots are mostly accredited to kernel and not ROM. (however possible in ROM as well).
First thing you should do next time if such thing happens is to flash stock boot or use a different boot then u are currently using.

I did the same, Returned to full stock. But then the problem occurred again after I finished setting up all my apps. Also I found out what the problem was.
The issue is with the latest update of DoubleTwist Music Player App. As soon as I installed that app and opened it, My phone froze and then the restarting issue started. Then I removed the app apk from Recovery and now it works fine.
So anyone having this issue try the above solution.

[Q] Phone turns off when taking a picture

This has been doing my head in for quite some time, sometimes when I take a picture and flash/focus and then shoot it turns my phone off, to the point I can't turn it back on and I have to battery pull.
I thought it was a ROM related issue (at the time I was on Ultima ROM 4.2) so just recently I've upgrades to 4.3.2 KitKat and it does exactly the same. It's not an app issue although it does it far less in MX Camera then stock camera.
Does anybody know why? it's driving me crazy
UrbanDesigns said:
I got this error in CWM after I tried flashing a KitKat ROM, I googled the error and found it's because my CWM is old and I need the updated version that's able to flash some KitKat ROMs but i wipe factory/data reset and when i reboot i just reboot into recovery
I figured i can just flash the .tar file from Odin and reboot into the new recovery and then flash the ROM but the .tar is nowhere to be found and i'm pretty out of practise with all the flashing ROMs business, I don't know what my alternatives are. I'm updating from 4.1.2 and that's only because the bug on this app is doing my head in (turns phone off sometimes when flash focus taking a picture, got to battery pull)
phone is stuck in recovery until some chap helps me out
phone is scaring me now lol, had trouble getting it into recovery then. i can see the brick light and its glowing
much appreciated

Yeah that's happening to me too, I'm on Imperium rom v31.0 (based on stock Samsung 4.3) with Boeffla 5.3 kernel.
I'll try figure out what's going on, it might be the battery getting old. If you can, try a newer battery.
EDIT: Problem seems to be fixed for me, setting max CPU clock to 1600mhz and GPU to 266/350/440/533/600 overvolting to +25mV through Boeffla-Config V2.
