I have read a few posts...some having memory leak problems..others are not..one solution i saw was kernel related. I really love the shake and bake theme but moved to mim black out theme e122 because of random reboots. I was also running the samurai kernel. Those of you who are not having reboot memory leak problems..are you guys running the shadow kernel or maybe the latest updated samurai!??? Thanks in advance...

I would LOVE too see this get figured out. I had some reboots on the mod myself, but none the last couple days I ran it. I didn't have any in the 2 days while testing the version of my theme without it. In that time my battery never got low, and I did a few flashes fixing things so it was hard to measure.
Running 2 phones side by side for several days with shadow 1.0.1 and the same EI22 rom, one with 10 lock mod, the other without. I pulled several random reboots on the lockmod phone. I switched the other phone to no lockmod and it has been reboot free for 3-4 days now. The original phone without lockmod is 6+ days reboot and lag free. Ram has not dropped below 75 free, usually hangs around 110-115 free, and recovers to 130 free at times. Running no task killers and not manually clearing ram.

I'd say it's confirmed that the lockmod is causing the reboots somewhere. I haven't had a single reboot on stock OC/UV while running no lockmod, but I had multiple a day while running the lockmod.
Myth Confirmed!
The lockmod "may" be a factor in the equation but I gaurantee you it's not the only one. I run ICS 2.1 Lockmod and have been using the Shadow Kernel since it's release and have had no reboots and my ram is almost "always" between 100 and 150 free. Before even flashing a lockmod theme I had reboots on Samurai Kernel and low free ram. If it works fine for me without those issues then there is another variable in the equation that I'm not using that everyone else having issues is. That's common sense if you've studied anything in technology, mathematics, or science.

Agreed. Of course there are other variables that will cause reboots. I was just posting results from one recent test on a specific setup. Different roms, mods, kernels, usage, etc, can cause their own issues.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I think it's something in particular in conjunction with the lockmod causing massive ram leaks. Not "just" the lockmod itself. If it was "only" the lockmod not a single person using it would "not" suffer ram leaks and "not" get reboots. Though "many" do I do not, and know of quite a few others using themes with lockmods who also do not.

I have recently reduced my ram leakage to null by various ram tweaks, shadow kernel, and a removal of the 10-lock mod . That said, if you push your phone hard enough, it is still possible to re-enact the reboots just the same.
Basically, your phone can, and sometimes does hemorrhage ram. But when configured properly, it can recoup that ram harmlessly without your noticing. However, the 10-lock mod is a fairly integrated mod. Even the 8-lock mod is similarly integrated. With that in mind, the mod merely "enhances" the leakage to a point where it can no longer successfully be recouped over time. Once ram dips below a particular threshold, the phone is forced to soft-reboot itself in an effort to prevent a crash.
The glitch is most certainly in the kernel. Some suspect that it is in the wifi driver. Research is under way.
Simply put, it's like this:
Your phone is a boat and the kernel is a small hole in the floor.
Normally, a midget is there to help you bail out the boat so it doesn't sink.
When you add in the 10-lock mod, you drop a fat guy on top of your midget.
Now your boat sinks too fast to bail it out.

My personal experience. I run CleanGB ROM which has the RFS file system, not Ext4. I've tried all the themes with lockmod and without on the ROM with NO issues. One day I decided to go to EXT4 and bam: reboots and heavy memory loss. Converted back to RFS and magically, all issues went away. I have tried Shadow, and all Samurai kernels with no issues. I don't know enough about this stuff to guess why the lockmod doesn't play nice on EXT4, but that is my experience.

I was made to undersatnd that running a swapfile in GB ROMs (such as EH17) would eliminate the random reboots etc that plauge GB right now.
Does anyone know how to make the swapper program work wth those GB roms out there?
Bump.
I think it has to do with partitioning the SD card.
I know there is a way to do it. I'll post when I get it figured out
Next time, dont bump. But I think we've pretty much established it wasn't a ram/low memory issue. It's a low voltage issue.

i've seen it once in the two weeks of running it so far.
if its voltage related perhaps the reason for success is that i use set_cpu to underclock

I have spent the past week trying out several gingerbread ROMs trying to find one that I'd stable enough for daily use. The most impressive one I used was ASC Bamboozled v1.1. It was super quick and had some cool animations like the TV animation when you turned it off. I would like something kinda of like that. I know that the gingerbread ROMs have a reboot issue and that doesn't bother me too much. It is a slight annoyance but not a deal breaker. With the source of gingerbread from Samsung floating around I was wondering if there were any stable ROMs yet.

The animation is called CRT on and off I believe.

cm7 is the best. no reboots but it hasn't no 4g, which suxs.
I thought about cm7 but I heard there is a issue with voice calls and some of the standard things didn't work. Has that changed with the source? Nit worried about 4g seeing I don't live in a spot that has it. Yep throwing away $10 a month. I hate it.

Until the EXT4 kernel is released from source, find yourself a good stock RFS prerooted EH17 ROM to Odin and then Odin in mkasick's kernel from the new source. I don't think anyone put together a new ROM with the new kernel yet besides CM7. Or wait a few more days and I am sure there will be some.

Of all the GB roms, Thunderhawk has been the most stable for me.
Hands down acs ics. Its super stable and fast and its ics themed. cyanogen is also great if you don't mind losing 4g and video. Although battery on both roms are fantastic. I get about 18 hours average on acs and about 23 on cyanogen. And thats with a stock battery with moderate use. Ive been switching back and forth for a while now. But been running acs as my default rom. I havent had one problem with it at all. No reboots, lags, gps lock issues, or things of that sort.

Here's the thing about 'stability'. All the GB roms look wonderful out of the gate and perform flawlessly for 3-4 days and then start to disintegrate, act out, cause FCs and freezes. If you want serious stability, you need to use a Froyo rom. If you don't mind a few inconveniences, CM7 is the way to go. It is the most stable of the GB roms and many phone owners are very excited about its possiblities down the road. Honestly, I work in a hi-rise in San Francisco and I don't even miss the 4G, the phone is that fast. The battery life alone is worth the call sound and video issues which are minor at best. IMHO.
everyones phone is different
some people have issues with cm7 and acs ics, and some people dont. so best idea is test drive both roms, to see have your phone acts it them. and with the video issue there are other players in the both markets that can help with that. and with cm7 its just plug and play no extra steps to get it to work and with acs ics there other things you have to do to get it to rite.
ACS ICS seems to be pretty good so far. No major concerns to this point, albeit early stages of testing.

Don't you know not to invest in something for features it may have one day... that's what got us into trouble with the Epic 4G in the first place (6 month late Froyo, endlessly delayed Gingerbread, TV Out, FM radio...)!
Anyways, whenever someone asks "what's the best rom?", you'll always get very biased responses. You'll generally hear cries of "ACS!" and "Cyanogen!". While the acclaim is generally deserved, my own testing hasn't yet shown anything too fantastic in their current GB versions. ACS ICS has a somewhat glitchy launcher, but if you like it have at it. CM7 did not have anything special I could find, nor did it perform to my typical battery standards.
Try them all out, each has their own merits and each phone performs differently with different roms. Don't forget the others like Hurricane or Urban.
Or you can just follow the crowd .
When I came to XDA, I read the threads under each ROM to see what the features were and what problems people were having. People coming here now are too damn lazy to do this and want us to tell them exactly what to put on their phone. I would lke nobody to answer threads on "what's the best ROM" and maybe people will stop being lazy and read.
If everyone liked the same thing there would be only 1 rom. Read like kenny and random suggested. Find the one with the most features that you personally need or want. I try just about every rom on here and always find my way back to thunderhawk. It just has the best mix of all the features I need working.

That is only kernel source, not a full tar release. The closest you can get is the nandroid dump. Restore that, root, flash an EXT4 kernel.

Why don't you Odin to EC05 stock, accept the OTA, then follow the steps on rooting it which includes flashing an EXT4 kernel?
---------- Post added at 09:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------
Here is supposed to be a clean GB. You will probably still need to flash an EXT4 compatible kernel, and may have to run RFS2EXT4 if you are set on EXT4. It also helps you set up to use Heimdall instead of Odin.

I have that one too. Noobl has a point with the gps being fine. With the fix everyone is doing to get 9 sat locks is over kill and does drain battery if you leave it on all the time. with out the gps fix I get better battery life and locks as fast and as accurate. And that's from my own personal observation.
But I'm running acs v5 with sumarai colonel at 1.49 ghz. Runs almost perfect boot will reboot at least one time daily at those speeds. If I leave out at 1ghz, the reboots does NOT go away. Still get it. But 1 reboot ain't bad. I think its red headed step child gingerbread running out of ram.

Your phone will kill itself above 1.2... you will get to the point that you will get reboots even on stock at 1.0 ghz from abusing the processor previously. This is why I never overclock at all. I never have issues on any rom with reboots.

I am glad im not the only one. I have tried ACS v5, and Legendary Rom with both the nuberal and samurai kernels and still get random reboots. I have tried running it overclocked at 1.1 ghz, 1.2ghz, 1.3ghz, 1.4ghz, same results. All overclocked speeds last the same amount of time before I get a random reboot.
All the custom roms are very, very similar in terms of bugs and random reboots.
I am trying starskyRom at the moment, and so far, its flawless...well...flawless when the phone is on. The only bug I can report is my battery screen does not show up when I try to charge the phone when the power is off. Nothing very big, but still annoying knowing there is always something. In the end im willing to take it in the nuts a few times to get a good final product in the end. Lots of good developers around here, and they do great work.
Stock ei22 would be a very, VERY stable rom if they would just fix the damn GPS, Keyboard Lag, and Screen Rotation lag.
Given time all these roms will become perfect, but until then, we are just BETA testers.

Not RAM. It was proven on the leaks that it was voltage and speed causing the reboots. We fixed it with Tegrak and SetCPU combo. RAM does not leak out. Lots of apps suck it dry and the stock task manager sucks and does not see a LOT of apps that are stealing RAM. Have not seen anyone mention a reboot on Legendary. As for the GPS with the fix I never lose lock, without the fix I lose lock every 15 minutes on a trip and would occasionally require a reboot to get it back...not the best situation when driving. Give me 9 out of 9 locks any day and a car charger and I am good to go.

Yup, typical response. Every device behaves different with these mods. I find stock ie22 to be the best stable room. Once you go deodex, you remove stability for some reason. That's from my observation of being a addicted flashing crack hor.

What Marcusant is saying is the damage is not immediate and may be cumulative over time. Have you gotten reboots on a deodexed ROM running at 1000 Mhz max?
My phone suffered mildly from the lines and blobs issue, but it hadn't really bothered me much.
After flashing Faux's 010u Kernel, which contains various display and driver updates from the latest Skyrocket release, my screen looks fantastic! The lines have faded drastically, and the color reproduction and auto-brightness both look closer to the Sprint version.
Since my phone wasnt affected as badly as others' I've seen on here, I'm interested to hear if anyone else experienced similar results.
Best,
AP
gonna have to agree here, i thought it was just my imagination tho.
When I posted in the kernel thread asking if there were screen improvements from flashing it, Faux stated that Samsung basically did what Supercurio does with his voodoo screen hacks with their driver updates.
Yes this is why his kernel should be used in all roms although i am loving darkside too. But yea man his kernel definitely did some magic with dimming and color enhancements. If u go to his thread faux says it is like voodoo but by samsung.

.edit..i see u beat me to it aaron : )

10u is the ultimate version which has the gpu overclocked. Makes it smoother but also worse battery for some users. 10m is the non overclocked gpu version of his kernel.

when i read this i didn't really believe it, but the lines are do seem harder to see now. even if you use screen filter it's not so obvious anymore. screen still has a somewhat greenish tinge when filtered on the lowest settings, but still much improved.
faux 10m.
yeah the faux's new 10u kernel fixed these issues minimally for me as well. I am thinking this hasn't anything to do with defective screens (trust me I know when I see a hardware defect--- came from a mt4g and half those early production units had a bad screen) but rather the GPU drivers. Even if it does turn out to be a defective hardware fault how can I go about getting a warranty exchange? I bought this phone off of craiglist-- BNIB basically. not sure if it was stolen or not since it was rather cheap.
also try *#0*# to run various tests- this should work on custom roms as well. Do the green- red and blue screen tests and see if you guys get any improvements after flashing the faux 10u kernel? I would test it but I don't have much time on my hands.
After kernel flash I still see lines on the Green red and white, but not on the blue or the black. What gives?
Please post your findings so I can investigate this further.
I am talking about Gingerbread, not ICS.
Every android game I play, especially graphics-intensive ones, begin to intermittently freeze up and go to their 'pause' screens between every few seconds or every few minutes (depends on the game). I always need to hit 'resume' to get back into whatever game I'm playing. This has never happened before, even though I'm playing some of the same games I've used since the EI22 Samsung update (and associated custom ROMs).
I've had this error on every ROM I've used since my upgrade to EL30. This includes the completely stock EL30 on BML, RandomRom Thunderhawk IV EL30 on MTD, and the AOSP FC09 on MTD; I've used the same kernel on my phone since January (Shadow 3.0+), but now with it built on EL30. I am running Android 2.3.6 and reluctant to try CM9 or 7 until all kinks have been worked out; I need my phone to always at least be able to work as a phone/text/photo/email/internet/GPS device, and based on the development forums, that's currently far from guaranteed.
I've tried tweaking my CPU governor, completely shutting off overclocking programs, and even using a RAM manager with absolutely no luck.
Does anyone have the same issue, and if you've got a workaround, what is it? Any other kernels or completely reliable ROMs I should try?
:/ cm7 has MMS working I think. There's samurai alwasy, but you obviously prefer shadow as do I. If you do use cm7 and vdont wanna use shadow kernel or Samurai, KernelSanderV5 is great too

cm7 would be nice, but i was under the impression that there were still 'little things here and there' (i think that was the exact quote from one of the reserved posts) that needed fixing. lol i hope that doesn't mean problems with things like 4G connectivity after WiFi switching, video playback etc. I don't have enough posts yet to ask there, even though i've been a lurker for almost a year, so i'm forced to ask here. thanks for replying!
will kernelsanderv5 work for ROMs other than cm7? i'll search for it, too.

haha, the great marcusant! thanks for replying to my first post. yeah, i'd love to use your nyan colonel, but that'd require me to move to cm9, which i don't see myself doing until it's outta beta. i appreciate all your work, and i noticed i used a ROM (CopyPaste) that apparently was based on MarcusantRom. It was great, except that it would slow up, lock up, and finally freeze up after opening several apps in succession.. or browsing image-heavy websites. sorry :\
thanks also for posting a poll for what we'd like to see fixed in cm9 - once i can actually spare some time to mess around (and once i get past this damn 10-post minimum), i'll try it and add to the responses.

Look for the CM7 version. You can get the CM7 RC from get.cm under epicmtd. Then get Nyan CM7 from the development section. You can also try the v6 supercharger scripts.

blah, should have found it. sorry, i'm busy with another exam week, and haven't been too thorough. thanks!
SUCCESS!! I ended up installing the current EL30 TW Samurai kernel instead of the older one I had on my SD card from a few months back, and boy does it kick ass. It has a higher framerate cap than the shadowkernel, and doesn't freeze up annoyingly during games. I have a feeling that it is because of something called a 'memory deadlock fix' that was included in the samurai version from last month, but not mentioned at all in the shadowkernel. Thanks, everyone, for your input. You guys/gals are great! BTW, I've stuck to qbking's amazingly professional RandomROM and now have absolutely ZERO issues of ANY sort. This includes 4G/WiFi switching, MMS, LED, and even little things like GPS locktimes. It is by far better in every way than stock, too, especially with the keyboard fix. Props to you, qbking - especially for making everything work so well while being a new dad!
