Hi, I had CM10.1 running for a while. Since a few weeks I got random freezes when I wanted to turn on the screen it stayed off (LED was flickering, so the phone was still on). After a forced reboot (vol up+power button) it worked, but as it kept happening I wanted to try a full wipe. By the way: it happened every single night too, my phone was flickering its LED, but didnt react, and also alarm wasnt working (FML).
When messing around with this (I'm not really an expert at flashing/CM) and trying to restore my phone with TitaniumBU it kept freezing when working (to) fast. So I tried a lot with formatting SD, doing other wipes etc. Nothing really seem to help, as the random freezes kept happening.
Now I've installed the stable CM9, but already had freezes (even with the startup wizard in the beginning). I'm getting the feeling that its some hardware related issue. Can anybody tell me more about these problems, and mayb what else I can try.
Last try is to turn it al back to Touch Wiz, unroot, but I have to figure out how to. Hope this will solve it.

Sorry, plz move my thread where it belongs (im noob).
After some searching I found that it might not be a CM related problem, but something with 'sudden death' happening to more people with other ROMs or even without custom roms.

New development: my phone is now stuck at Samsung GSIII logo. Doesn't go further from there. I'm planning to go to Samsung with it. It is not unrooted, so my Q is;
can they see that it is rooted when the phone doesn't get past the boot logo?

I've searched the forum but I didn't see a similar issue.
My phone is new, I bought it a few days ago and it came with 2.2.1 froyo.
As a xda user, I started to search for roms and decided to try the CodeROM v2x-2b.
I flashed KPN and then the CodeROM. The flashing process ran without problems.
The system is running well except for 2 problems:
One of the problems is that when I'm using the phone, sometimes it's screen turns off. Sometimes it turns on after a moment, with a very high bright level. Other times it just remains off.
In both cases I must press the power button twice (as I was locking and unlocking the phone) and it comes back in lock screen (wich means the system doesn't freeze, it's just a screen issue).
Sometimes it happens quite often, sometimes it takes a while to happen.
I flashed Gls-mt-ROM today but the problem continues. For me, it indicates it's not a Rom problem.
The other problem I'm still gonna research a little more before posting here.
Does someone have a clue about what can this problem be?
Edit:
I reflashed CodeRom with the brazilian modem file from this thread.
Until now, seems to solved the screen problem. Seem to solved other 2 problems too (GPS and wifi).
I can't figure how screen and modem are connected.
Does this information make any sense?

Hey!
Dose you done the WIPE? Factory settings?
CHEERS!

Yes.
I think I did it before and after flashing the CodeROM (the tutorial was saying to do so) and before flashing the Gls-mt-Rom.
I don't think doing it again will solve the problem. Should I think that?
Hey guys, long time xda user but never really bothered making an account and posting lol, but **** just got serious so I need some specific help. So I have been flashing roms almost since the first day I got this phone, never had a problem not even flashing ICS roms. But in this case, I was running [ROM] Blue 2.2 Frankenstein-FishmanMod Final and it was working perfect, had battery for days, no lag , and everything was smooth as usual. Then out of the blue, my vibrant decides to shutdown(no I still got plenty of battery left), so I wouldnt call this an infinite reboot because it doesnt reboot it just shuts down every time I turn it back on! It usually shuts down a couple of secs after I turn it on. And now im having a hard time even getting to CWM. I tried odin(multiple times) but no cigar, problem still persist. WTF . Does anyone know what I can do?
You could try to wipe everything if the phone dosent shutsdown, did you try using Heimdall(I think thats the name) and what especific problem you have with Odin?

Hi
I was running on Omega v38 past few days, and my phone was running great.
Few days back my phone got totally stuck once, but a reboot fixed it.
Today I upgraded to Omega 40, and my phone started to freeze every few mins.
So I megawiped, and reinstalled it.
My phone got frozen in the set up screen itself.
Megawiped and installed Foxhound.it ran great for few minutes and gets frozen every 5-10 mins.
So I mega wiped and reinstalled Omega 38.
Same problem. Even during searching for Titanium backup, the phone got frozen.
By frozen, I mean the screen won't respond or turn off.
Only a reset would solve the issue.
I've also noticed that the phone is getting too hot during it.
Any fix?
Could it be an indication to SDN issue?
that's really strange have you wiped system during the "megawipe")) ?
i guess the only solution is to return to stock via odin and than flash again
Triangled Away
Flashed Stock Rom
Still the problem persists.
Even in Safe Mode.

Having the same problem over here, tried numerous roms (OMEGA v37-v40, CM10.1, Resurrection) no luck at all. Phone keeps randomly freezing. So I decided to go back to stock and unroot (for warranty reasons). Without any problems I unrooted my device, and installed a stock JB rom from my country (Netherlands). Traingle away, worked like a charm, but still, when installing apps and settings, I got random freezes, even on stock (official rom). As you said as well, screen would not respond, no hardware keys either. So decided to return it for warranty, and get a new phone/repaired hardware. Woke up, phone still running (very surprised), used it throughout the day, only a random reboot in the late evening and a single freeze. I really don't get how this bug/hardware problem works... Going to see what happens next couple of days, before returning for warranty... I also tried other tricks, such as in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37432509 not sure if it helped, but it sure looks that way. I also check if my EMMC was insane (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1993044&page=388) And it is, not sure however if this is related, because the sudden death problems mention not booting at all.
Good luck, keep us posted on your progress.

My note started doing this after it went through airport security. It was in a bag and went through the x-ray machine. It randomly reboots very often, probably between 20-60 second intervals. I was on CM10, then I flashed back to stock ICS, and then finally up to the official JB update. None of which has solved this problem.
i posted in here.. this may help.

Phone is stuck in a boot loop and this is what I know so far. Phone is on stock ROM, power button is working fine, I can get to recovery and OS and download mode, and while phone was charging I took the battery out and the phone keeps vibrating. I now know it's a hardware problem for me (I think), but I can not pin point where. Any advise would be helpful cause I really love my note and this is just breaking my heart.:crying:
Hi guys. Im using the international version of GS2. My problem is that my phone switches off suddenly with over heating or reboots randomly. I have used different ROMs and found this problem persisting. I cleared everything from my phone, used tools like GS2ROM nuke and GS2ROM Wipe but still this problem is there. I read a post saying battery may be faulty and replaced my battery even. But no luck. I found that the over heating and switching off occurs only when screen is off. During continuous usage, it is more or less fine. (except for occasional random reboots). also, this is always random. it doesnt make any sense. i even checked the hardwares of my phone in the service centre and he says the hardware is fine. Pls help me guys. Im going mad.. :crying:
Somebody help me pls.. I think its a serious issue.. :crying:
same problems here...
An answer would be nice!
Guys its driving me crazy. I cant use it at all.. It gets heated up and turning off or reboots randomly. :crying::crying:

No bud. Not working. How about you?
I am a huge fan of custom roms and have flashed many of them, it was all fine before. but suddenly, this problem was omni-present in all roms. :crying: So i flashed the stock ROM version 4.1.2 (INDIA- XWLST) via mobile odin. it booted well after wiping cache and factory reset and was fine for a couple hours. After that the problem got massive. phone will restart or turn off when in screen-off. This continues even now in stock ROM. I tried everything from wiping cache, factory reset, dalvik cache wipe, fixing permissions and everything. But no results. THE MOST BIZZARE THING IS THAT PHONE IS FINE WHEN SCREEN IS ON. I experimented by keeping the screen on for an hour and nothing happened. THE MOMENT I PRESSED THE LOCK BUTTON, IT RESTARTS. Im going mad guys.. someone help meee.. :crying::crying:
EDIT: I think there's nothing wrong with the power button because it works well in all other places. If i remove the battery and reboot, I get a few seconds where i can lock and unlock screen. But again, it starts.
No can do guys???? there's no way to make my phone alright??? :crying:
