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.

I’ve flash about 20 different ROMS since I got my SGS2
I’m running checkromHD 4.0 every two days or so my phone seem to turn off or go into a sleep mode and cant be woken up, my friend running the same ROM (which I installed for him) and has got no problems
Ive tried wipe / format data cache and factory reset, tried flashing a stock ROM, then Checkrom 4.0 still the same problem
Can too much rom flashing affect the phone?
Any help would be appreciated
No
Problems are usually user error or rom error .
jje
I agree, I flashed mi phone like 32 times and still rocking
long ago i rested counter and at the moment i have like 50 flashes and i think im gonna flash again tonight...when sth is wrong its either the rom or the users fault...nothing against u but mostly its the users fault

this sounds like too much undervolting, or playing with set cpu settings, very common issue, had it like millions times, either flash a different kernel, or increase voltages of the sleep/wake frequency ([email protected])
with some kernels my voltage for 200mhz was at 825 and was running fine at some kernels i was having no wake issues, so had to put it up to 850-875 or change governor hope this helps
Flash durability
Flash memory durability depends of type. You can expect to be able to flash your phone at least 10,000 times. You will find that the connector which is also rated for 10,000 connections, would wear out first.

OK there is one problem that persists with all of the versions of the Sammy ICS roms.
Issue:
I boot into recovery wipe data, cache, dalvik cache, format system and then flash the rom, for example "Neatrom lite". Everything goes ok, I boot into the rom itself. Then I'll say, hey what the heck ~I won't install anything just to see whether its a application that is causing it. Then I listen to some music and turn off the music and lock the phone. After like 20 minutes or 20 hours or 2 days it will frequently stay on the 1200MHZ frequency and stay there for about 10 minutes. And as all of you know this will heat the phone up and therefore cause it to lose a decent amount of battery (30% in my case).
I tried to so hard to fix this problem by flashing another kernel or flashing the rom again or flashing a different rom but it still doesn't work...I love Samsung's ICS roms because the TV out works and its ICS. I just hope that the 4.0.4 rom will fix this.
So any idea guys? Any help or any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Install BetterBatteryStats from a thread here on XDA and fully charge your phone and then let it fully discharge and study the results for kernel wakelocks. Type wakelock into Google and find a solution.

i have Slim's latest on my I777. i am having constant shutdowns & SOD's, like every few minutes. the twist is that i have had the same release of Slim on the phone before, several times in fact, and i had the occasional SOD, but not constantly like now. i have installed Slim a number of times because i like to try new ROMs, and i keep coming back to Slim cus i like JB.
this must be diagnosed, because i believe now that something was messed up a bit along the way of flashing ROMs, mods, and kernels, but our awesome ROM supporters in their threads have their limits they have told me, and i should ask here since this is a general question about the phone & system. i am seeking help here relating to the rest of the phone and system that may become damaged somehow, and i want to clean up my system to end this problem. logcat & last_kmssg linked below.
to be clear: i am rooted correctly, am running the right software for the I777, always check my MD5's from the phone before flashing, clear my caches when needed, wipe dalvik before flashing kernels, etc etc.
interestingly, i fully wiped/factory reset, formatted system, dalvik, wiped batt stats, and fixed permissions, then reinstalled stock Slim last night because i thought maybe my settings were trouble, so i decided to run an out-of-the-box Slim, changing only the dpi and launcher. no change.
i've tried Siyah's latest after running Jkay's kernel cleaner as well. no change. something is making my phone shutdown/SOD constantly, and it may not be the ROM. others don't seem to be having this issue. i have little running on the phone. just accuweather, Date in Tray Pro, and Apex Pro. no overclocking/voltage changes... nothing fancy at all. so i'm just perplexed.
here's the latest logcat: http://davidb.net/logcat_and_device_info(1).zip

if any of you guys can help with this, then thank you in advance.

Nothing jumps out at me but you need to backup your data and SDCARD to a PC, flash back to stock..... when stock boots up perform a factory reset and test with the stock firmware... if it work fine.... root and install the ROM fresh and clean and test without installing anything else. If it again is fine then install every app from the Market. if you want to restore your recent data afterwards that is up to you but There are so many variables that could be causing your issue and you need to step back and try to find the cause one step at a time.

thanks shoman. much appreciated for the tips.
You wouldn't happen to be using an aftermarket phone charger would you? I was working on a phone behaving like that and it was the charger. If you lifted up on the plug a little while plugged in, it would wake the phone from sleep and constantly restart it. It also did something to the ROM or possibly the Kernel cause it started restarting while not plugged in and the power button quit working. I used a known good Samsung charger and installed AOKP JB with the kernel that came with and it fixed everything. I replicated this problem with two different chargers. It is possible that the USB port on the phone was worn. However, no matter how I moved the cable with a Samsung charger, nothing bad would happen.

no I've never used one.
but it appears this was all caused by the app Screen Off And Lock by Katecca. I had the donate version. its always worked for me on every ROM up through ICS, but it seems to wonk out JB. I changed to Lock Screen App by Kenneth Cheng and have had zero problems in days now, which is a first.

Hi.
I'm on my 2nd S3 now. First one suffered from the "sudden death syndrome".
My 2nd S3 has been perfectly fine bar the odd lock up. It's rooted and flashed with Supernexus by Faryab on v4.2.2
It has been freezing a lot lately, maybe 3 or 4 times a day but over the past few hours, it's now locked up approximately 20-30 times and I have to keep the power button pressed to reboot it. I've uninstalled any apps I have installed over the past few days. Booted into recovery and cleared cache and davlik cache (it's now saying Android is Upgrading upon every reboot). I can't even get time to backup my apps using Titanium Backup without it crashing.
What is going on anybody? Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks. It appears my full microSD card was causing the problem. Cleared a few movies off it last night and it's not crashed since. Fingers crossed!

Did you do a full wipe including system format before installing the ROM? . It may be a data problem. Don't forget that 4.2.2 is also a beta firmware mate and not official like 4.1.2 so these things can happen. Also there are no custom kernels to flash to try and see if it's kernel based either.

Hey, yeah I did a full wipe including system format before I installed the new ROM. I've had this ROM for probably 3 months now and haven't had any problems with it up until the last few weeks. Infact 4.1.2 was killing my battery in a matter of hours. 4.2.2 ROM made me love my phone again as it fixed my battery woes!
This is so frustrating...
4.2.2 being a beta version can do this but re-installing can sometimes cure it though. Changing the kernel in 4.1.2 can give you better battery if you play around with a few and if course is more stable being an official release too. You can also try a different 4.2.2 ROM. They aren't all the same.
Thanks for the reply. Im not too comfortable/confident in changing kernels due to my lack of knowledge on them!
I do however like Faryabs ROMS as I like the original Android flavoured ROMS.
Will try a reinstall!

I have the exact same issue, I was running Faryaabs rom version M1, Android 4.2.2. And a couple of days ago, I noticed it started freezing, and I have to reboot with power button. Now I installed the leaked Touchwiz 4.2.2. but the freezing remains and it has started to be worse. As you mention, 20-30 times a day. I have noticed though, when I shutt of internet, both wifi and 3/4G I get less crashes. Have you noticed the same?
If you find a solution, please inform me to.
Cheers,
Niko

I think you may have found it
Wifi for example is controled by the kernel but there is no source codes released by Samsung so thats why there are no custom 4.2.2 kernels available for the S3 or you could flash one and most likely sort the problem out.
Its a shame cos there are for other phones on this version.
Hi dude
I went to the freezing thread here and found that the DFG method solved it all. So for anyone willing to try this please head over to that thread or just download the dummy file generator apps (2 in app store) although one is only necessary.

Hello all, I am having some issues with 4.3 roms that I hope someone is able to help with.
I first noticed the problems after flashing PA 4.3, and after doing the usual restoration of my apps, I found that some of them now stutter very badly, the key apps that come to mind are Feedly, Dolphin browser, Opera, and the stock browser.
I searched the thread for users suffering from the same problems, but none seemed to have it. Therefore I took it as my own fault and tried to reflash the rom again. When flashing a rom, I always do the following: Full wipe, with system, preload, data all formatted. This I do via Philz recovery.
I then restored all my apps as usual via titanium backup, and still found the problem to exist. I took it as perhaps bad luck of mine, that my phone just would not play nice with PA 4.3. I then tried other 4.3 roms, PACman and liquidsmooth, but again the problems occurred.
This time, I eliminated my backups as a possible culprit by only downloading the affected apps via playstore immediately after a fresh install (after the entire wifi, google setup) and nothing else. However, these apps are still affected by the stuttering problem.
Flashing to 4.2.2 roms do not present this issue at all.
Therefore i searched for possible incompatibilities of the apps with 4.3, but was not able to find anything. Seeing as no other users of the roms are having the same problems as me, I can only concur that it may be something I am doing wrong, so I am hoping if anyone can help shed some light on this situation I am in, thank you.
Summary:
- Several apps stuttering on 4.3
- Full wipe fresh install with no other apps installed does not fix problem
- Issue is not present on 4.2.2
- Multiple 4.3 roms tested
Info:
Liquidsmooth JB - v2.9
Googy Max kernel 1.7.5
Philz recovery 5.11.2
If more info is required, I would be happy to provide.

I did not notice my notifications drawer stutter, however i mostly run in expanded desktop mode with PIE and halo so i do not use the notifications much. I was always on googy kernel for my roms, and tried using the phone, but gave up after 1 day because the experience was terrible with stutters and all. I also tried a cache wipe and dalvik wipe but to no avail.

the above is strange indeed. I am running SlimBean 4.3 since the first beta and never experienced stutters (also with TB restores).
You could try to setup your phone from scratch with MegaWipe (it will wipe anything clean, only leaves your external SD intact), whereas I would be surprised if this will help. Otherwise did you try another kernel (e.g. Yank's)?

Aye, hoping to exhaust every possible means before such a drastic "nuke" is attempted. I used yank before googy, but to eliminate all possible causes, i have only installed the apps that are affected on a clean fresh rom with no modifications or other apps installed. Since its impossible for 3 clean roms to be having the problem, its either me or my phone.
Oh and on an extra note, my phone has died from SDS twice, both times i have sent it back for repair. After the second time, i believe they updated my bootloader iirc, so it now has the red "!" sign after a software flash. Using the emmc checker app, it is also no longer the sds affected version.

I guess you are correct considering that:
(1) your procedure of flashing a rom is following the guides
(2) you tried different ROMs
(3) you tried different kernels
knowing that you had SDS problems, maybe it was not resolved 100%? I had, for quite some time, also occasional freezes and lags and the procedure here helped me to solve them, maybe also worth a try?

Well I tested the DFG out, now back on 4.3 but issues still present sadly. One thing i did notice about my browsers though, is that it only starts to stutter when running 2 or more tabs. On one tab alone, it is smooth. Most of the other apps are also functioning smoothly. I guess I will stick with the setup for now and use replacement apps for the affected ones.
