Does anyone else find this phone to be a mess or do i just have a bad one?

My phone is always shutting itself off or randomly rebooting. The most it has ever gone without a reboot is 3 days and lately thats a stretch. I am running phantom hackers blazer rom. Is this just something that you go through when rooted? I love this phone but i hate goin to use it and see that its off. Sometimes i consider getting rid of this thing and goin with an iphone because of how stable they are. My bro has an iphone and it is pure rock solid!

I can go Weeks without a reboot. Running try the ROM in my sig. Make sure you do a clean install, using the flash all script. Don't use TB until you are stable. After that you will be golden.

So you think its the rom and not my phone? I will say it never rebooted before i rooted it. I do LOVE this phone and would hate to get rid of it i just get soo mad when it reboots. Not something you should expect from a 500+ dollar device..

Yes, I think it is software related. Only time I ever get a random reboot is from something software related being off. Could be ROM, kernel, theme, just about any thing. That's why you want to start fresh. Caulks ROM is dead solid stable.

rbtrucking -- are you undervolted? The only time I've had any stability/reboot problems with this phone were when I was a little too aggressive with the undervolt (or overclocked to 1.7ghz ). I'm on calk's 2.8.1 with steadyhawkin's gunslinger kernel btw.

Phones the most reliable I've ever had now that the los is gone. I undervolt mine considerably. I have 3 other friends with thus phone 2 of them not rooted. The stocks have more issues then rooted ones I swear with reboot hot reboots freezing..getting sticky on transitions . Each phone just handles each Rom a lily different....YMMV

Nope I am not undervolting or overclocking at all. I leave the cpu settings alone as I find the phone to be plenty fast and overclocking can drastically decrease the life of a cpu especially without proper cooling. I have heard nothing but amazing things about calkulins roms though maybe I will give it a try. Anyone else having any issues like mine on Phantom Hackers Blazer rom?

If you flash back to stock and it still does it its ur sd card.

Ya I actually already had an sd card go bad on me and had to remove it because my phone would literally reboot every 10 minutes and sometimes I would have to pull the battery out for a little while to get it to go back on. The sd card was really really old though, came with my original evo. Since removing the sd card the reboots are allot less frequent but they still do occur but usually no more than once a day sometimes every couple days.

In 3 months I had one reboot...

Well all I can say is I flashed calkulins rom with the pure honey theme and this **** is HOT!! I really never knew using titanium backup that you dont lose ANYTHING! For some reason I always thought it just backs up apps! Had I known this I would have been flashing new roms allot more frequently though I love this one soo much I will definitely be sticking with it for some time. Lets just hope it runs stable on my phone! So far no complaints but it has only been about 10 minutes! Thank you for recommending this rom!

Since day one my phone reboots on average 2 times a day and overheats and/or shuts off at least once a wk. For me, it's not software related as I have tried every rom.
Today it just started a new thing where it will boot up (go through the animation) and then the screen will go dark to where I can't do anything. Right before it goes dark, the animation will freeze. I am able to get into the recovery though, and have wiped the cache and dalvik.

[Q] Best ROM for a heavy user?

I have tried ROMS, like calkulins, unnamed, and blazer, also ive tried VCS. What is the best ROM for a heavy user. None of these did it for me, i still lost 1 percent battery every 2 to 3 minutes which is not good. I need one where i can have my screen on a lot and still not lose much battery. Is there a ROM that will give me CRAZY battery life? Or at least better than these. Help?

You arent gonna get amazing battery life right away the rom needs time to settle in. I am running strongsteves odexed rom and i can easily go through a day with battery life to spare and i am always on my phone doin something. I have tried all the roms and my favorite so far are strongsteves odexed blue and phantom hackers blazer rom. I would wait on the blazer though he is releasing a stable version tomorrow.

I'm currently stock with EL29 at the moment. I'm pretty set at waiting until CM9 releases something stable before I do anything. I have had this device for a lil over a month and had the HTC Hero before hand and remember it taking a while to achieve root and what not. But I was wondering if Sprint happens to release something before CM goes stable would I still be able to Odin to CM without problem?

It varies but I have my brightness set at about 75% and I am always on my phone either texting, going on the web, facebook, twitter youtube and I always have plenty of battery life to spare at the end of the night. One thing that is very important is always clear out apps that you are not using because some of them will update frequently and cause battery drain. Also try different kernals that makes a huge difference.

I had very good luck with StrongSteves Odexed rom. That and the blazer rom gave me the best results on my device. You should look into the new blazer rom PhantomHacker just released it is very nice and ultra quick and snappy! Just flashed it this morning.

Give this a go
-download StockCWM-EL26.tar.md5 to your computer
http://chris41g.devphone.org/index.php?dir=EpicTouch/Stock+Repack/EL26/
-Open odin (make sure only auto reboot is checked) and click the PDA tab
-put the .tar you just downloaded in the PDA section
-on your device, hold the volume down rocker and power button at the same time until you boot into odin/download mode
-press the volume up rocker
-plug your device into your computer
-wait for it to recognize and hit start...let it load completely
your phone should reboot. You can then boot back into recovery and be on your way. I would recommend a fresh download ( you may have got a bad one)
Hope this helps. It's worked for me time and time again..

I'm on stock and usually get 4 to 5 hours of on screen time at 25%-35% brightness. Typical use is browsing the Internet, checking email, and playing games. I don't have twitter or Facebook app running. I wanted to know what screen on time you get (specific value) so I could compare with my phone to see if I had normal battery life.

I'm running tests right now on most of the stable roms available. All have been advance data restored. Screenshots speak louder than words. The link is in my siggy

well the difference is your on stock and you have different settings, people set up scripts on custom roms a lot and you can undervolt plus the roms are more powerful. Try this video to get rooted on el29 then look up vids to load custom roms. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7pWjmKCsoc

I really dont know why my phone keeps doing this every rom i flash. but it starts at like 1 percent draining every 7 minutes which is really good but then it goes down to like losing 1 percent every 3 minutes it does this for EVERY rom im undervolted to 800mhz max 500 idle can someone explain this to me and tell me if it will go back to how good it was?

What apps do you have installed? Have you looked at what apps are using battery? If you're having a lot of battery drain no matter what ROM you're running it's def time to start looking into what you're installing on top of the roms for the battery zapper... menu->settings->about phone->battery usage.

[ROM][14-02-13][Flinny] Andromadus - AOSP4.2.2[9]

Andromadus - Test Builds
To start with here you will find test versions of ROMs built by me from the Andromadus github repo http://github.com/Andromadus, think of them along the same concept as nightly builds just not every night These are development ROM's, if you want to run bleeding edge development ROM's and at least know how to use adb and logcat then you might find something of interest here. If you require something that works 100% of the time all of the time then this might not be for you. That said you can always give it a try and if it doesn't work restore your previous nandroid backup!
What IS Andromadus?
Initially it was a group of people who got together to make ICS work on the HTC Desire Z because nobody else seemed to want to support devices with physical hardware keyboards/trackpads. Whilst the idea stays the same It has grown slightly to support some other hardware and some of the work we have done is now used in many other devices. Andromadus builds of CM10 or CM10.1 are basically CM sources with a few additional tweaks or additions to support our phones.
1. New versions will be added as and when I feel there are enough changes to warrant one, don’t ask when the next version is coming.
2. If we decide to release a "Stable" version of these roms they will be published in another Andromadus thread.
Direct all your queries with release versions to that thread and in the same vain do not discuss these releases anywhere but here.
3. I will do as best I can to answer questions but if you don't get an answer from me I'm sure somebody else will be along to help. Help each other and I have more time to spend fixing things!
4. Don't ask for what's changed since the previous version, have a look at the recent submits on the Andromadus github if you want to know or wait for the mini changelogs when I post a new release.
5. If there is something in particular to test it'll be mentioned!
6. As always if you didn't wipe between installations then at least verify that the problem exists on a clean install before posting here. Nandroid/superwipe/install/check at the end of the day you can always restore your nandroid if the problem is reproducible on a clean installation. If you can't be bothered to try this then I really can't be bothered to try to help you :>
7. All that said ensure you make a nandroid/backup before hand. I take no responsibility for what you do to your phone with these ROM.
8. Whilst I can't stop you I would rather these builds were not used as a base for any ROM/MOD/ETC. The source is all available if you want to do your own builds with which you can do whatever you like.
9. Tell us what works/what's worse/what's better but don't ***** when something breaks or isn't fixed yet, report it and move on.
10. Sometimes people forget that we do this for fun, for ourselves, and sometimes your super important issue is way down on our personal list of things to be fixed.
If you ignore any of the above you will in turn be ignored.
Now that's all out of the way as always have fun
As usual you need to flash the ROM then GAPPS.
Checkout http://andromadus.flinny.org for links/files/changelog's
This a team/community effort, I'll not list everyone who has helped along the way here that list is in the beta thread but I will say thanks to all of them again and obviously anyone that has been missed.

Hi Flinny, great job on the AOSP builds they are running perfect. I only had one satback sins build 4. Suddenly my gallery stopt working and dropbox to. Because of the gallery problem my camera won't boot either. I flashed build 5 but I had the same problem. Build 4 was flashed with a full wipe and build 5 was flashed as update that the reason of course why the problem didn't left but sometimes it helps Does this sound familiar? Greetz Munky

I tested it last evening but have many FC message about "aosp keyboard" even with the physical keyboard
I wiped all but still the same message going back to cm10.1

Ok I'm a little rusty on the details at the moment but: AOSP means that you want it to get as close as stock experience as you can get right? (I'm really looking for a G-lite thing but then with ICS/Jelly Bean, sort of Nexus feel but then for our Desire Z)

What's everyone's opinion on these AOSP builds? To me they seem more stable and faster than CM. I kinda miss CM a little though, but not the lag.
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app

I know that this is a dumb question and the answer is probably within the other thread, but... Ah heck, now it's just that I'm too lazy to look for the solution LOL...
But I installed AOSP 4.2 v6 last night and so far I'm not experiencing any major problems (except for FCing when I edit a picture and a bit of confusion adjusting to some new features LOL)... But when is this project going to be merged with CM? There are LOTS of creature comforts (e.g. silence during night hours, T9-style contact search, etc.) that I'm used to with the CM-optimized version that I kinda miss and only noticed that it was gone when I flashed it (I was under the impression that those features were all standard?)
Sorry to pester and thanks in advance.

That is strange. Which recovery are you using? Don't use clockworkmod as they're always full of glitches and bugs. Don't use ROM Manager to flash ROMs either as they as well have glitches. I recommend doing everything in recovery. If you do have clockworkmod I recommend flashing 4ext as it has more features and can make your phone a little faster

Ok I just went ahead and installed it. This is exactly what I need for a ROM on my Desire Z! Thanks Flinny, and keep up the good work!
Now my experience with this ROM:
- I just fly trough my home screens and menu's, it runs fluently!
- When at stock speeds (so 1Ghz) I sometime run into problems booting up the settings. I just hangs there for 4+ seconds untill it actually shows the settings. Setting clockspeeds to 1,8Ghz fixes this most of the times, but it's something you might want to look into (Or don't, it's your ROM)
- The above also happens with some apps.
I don't run swap or any other optimization, so I don't know if it's my problem or a ROM problem, but if you want me to do some more testing just tell me what I need to do

Boot Loop
Thanks for the work, this is a great ROM, just thought I would pitch my issue I had.
Im currently testing an app and set the device to use 2g only as I wanted so see how quickly it pulled in my data on a slower connection. If you leave it in 2g mode and reboot it appears to get stuck in a boot loop.
Hope this is helpful.
Cheers

I doubt that has anything to do with the "2g" setting since the radio doesn't come on until after it is booted up. Maybe that application you're testing screwed something up?

I am soft bricked after running antutu. I don't recommend running it.
[Edit] kdz'd back to jb and I'm good to go

Thumbs up on this ROM! I'll definitely be testing this out for the next couple of days.
Does anyone know Houstonn's screen setting in his RootBox ROM offhand? I like his color settings.

Damn, sorry about that.... Thanks for the heads up though, I'll update the op with this info until its fixed.

@Haze028
This rom is amazing. I did get the green demigod kernel panic screen on first boot. I replaced the kernel with the boot.img from Houstonn's 4/2/2013 modded Rootbox, and ran it for about 6 hours without a kernel panic. I did the same thing with your AOKP, and have not seen one kernel panic in 4 days, and can run benchmarks just fine. I am back to running this set up for now due to the rotation issue in Liquid, but once this is fixed I will be back.
Also, I did want to report that Torch is not working on Liquid. This is after a fullwipe. I fixed this by swapping the Torch.apk from Rootbox in the zip and reflashing. I tried copying it to System/App while running the rom, but it would not install, it would just delete Torch all together. I had to add it to your zip before flashing for it to work.
Again, thank you for this amazing rom.

It looks so good,thanks.

I haven't yet had a kernel panic, 11 hours in now. Though I had one case, about 3 hours ago, where the screen would not wake up and I had to power it down and reboot. It has been fine since then.
I can confirm the lack of torch, I'll add that to the OP as well untill I get it resolved. I'll try to work on some things tonight and see about getting another build out soon.
Thanks for the info though, I'll see what I can do.

No, again thank you for the amazing rom and support. I was literally looking in the Nexus 4 section at all the ROMs. Specifically, Liquid, hoping someone would port it. I clicked back to the Canadian Development forum, and bam, there it was. Its like you read my mind.

thank you for your support. This rom works well but I feel that the battery is not very good. Hope u can improve it in the next version. Thanks so much.

I installed this ROM before bed and went to sleep for 8 hours. It didn't seem to want to deep sleep...

What seems to be eating the battery, as far as battery screen shows, I know NFC defaults on which can kill off the battery quick. If you continue to run it, let me know how battery is once it settles in a bit more

This was the rom I had initially wanted to build, but after many issues I went to aokp and had much better success. Now that I have slightly more experince building roms, emphasis on the slightly , I managed to get by the errors, though the results are not yet perfect.

I've noticed not being able to drop below 1050 as well, seems the same in aokp. I'll look into there being a config or something for the kernel to change this. same for the gpu overclock, i'll update when I find out more

Awesome Rom, Thanks for the port!
I have one problem though, when I flip my phone in landscape, the image does flip too, but it becomes very small. It stays in portrait, but its rotated by 90 degrees. Any thoughts on that?

Well, as you know, I can't turn the NFC off. One more thing is that when I used wifi to connect to the Internet, every thing is ok, but when I use 3G+ to surf the Internet, I found that battery indicator reduced very quickly( quicker than normal even it declined 2-3% in a few times).
And in Performance, I set CPU at min: 384 and max:810 but when I checked, I saw that CPU still run at 1026(I already checked "set on boot"). I don't know if it it an error or not.

You should be able to turn off NFC, if it is sitting greyed out when you unchecked it reboot and try again... Works fine for me.
The frequency thing is known.... I've noticed however using fauxclock it stays down at 384 or whatever it is. Fauxclock is a paid app though so i cant include it. Ill look into an alternate app to use which works better and update when i find it
Edit: as for the internet, I haven't noticed yet...switched back to AOKP, testing the linaro tool chain build. Liquid still is full of issues..... Had trouble building, pretty much hack jobed it through as I didn't have too much time to play.

[Q] Andromadus Slim Bean [build 6.2] - HTC Desire Z (Vision/G2) - end call

Hi There,
I'm actually using this ROM after so many tries with different ones and it is AWESOME but....
Always is something, I have strange behaviour with end call. When I finished call, sometimes dialer automatically tries to invoke Calendar app.
I've flashed this ROM, many times but I've always later or earlier have that behaviour. even after unnstalling calendar it still requests for it.
First time I have such thing in ROM. It's even on fresh install.
Second thing, anybody knows any fine Kernel for Slim Bean which is able to undervolt cpu?
Once I used AlterNdromedus 3.x JB but I think it wasn't stable

Yes it is a great rom.
What version Google apps / addon did you use?
The Calendar app has problems if the wrong version is loaded.
Here is the correct link. I used the all in one aroma installer. It makes things easy.

I use these settings
368 mhz min 1.2 max. IO scheduler noop, governor asswax works for me.
Others had wake problems when less than 368 mhz. I have found anything over 1.2 mhz has caused stability issues.
I hope any of this was helpful. I have been running Slim since it came out and have loved it.

I know about calendar issue but I had it problematic only with calendar sync, calendar itself was working fine.
My version is exactly the same as You linked - v6. Btw. there is v8, is it compatible with DZ?
So, better not messing with kernel in this ROM?
Thanks.

Version 8 is not compatible. blk_jack made a special version for our phones. I find his ROMS don't need extra tweaking. He picks the best for the phone. Any time I tried to add something I made worse. If ain't broke don't fix it.
I am using cache cleaner SDmaid Pro to keep things running smoothly. If I experience any lag I boot to recovery and wipe the caches including dalvic and let the ROM rebuild them. Another helpful tip I use is adding a second ext and use Link2SD to move large apps to the SDcard.
G2 using Slim Bean

Indeed, I had the same. Whenever I tried to mess with pimp my rom I finished with worse
results. So, only one thing left, is supercharger v6+ is needed on this rom?
Thanks a mil. for the answers.

I don't think you need it. If do try let me know your results.

As you mentioned earlier about setting lower freq. to 368MHz I thought it's not mine problem but I was wrong. Today when alarm rang on my Desire Z I couldn't woke it for snooze or turning it off. I needed 30 secs to get UI start reacting and finally to disable the alarm.
Beside I had one restart from google play. So, I decided to change to 368MHz and disabling ZRam.
Btw. did you enabled swap? I've used swap enabler script, hope it's compatible

I don't use swap, I tried it a long time ago. I did not see a noticeable effective to warrant the risk.
I do create a secondary ext on my SDcard and use Link2SD. I found this helps the phone a fair amount.
There is a good tutorial about swap and secondary ext. It was very helpful for me. Have you convert your phone to ext 4. ICS and Jelly bean works better.
Are you using ROM manager or 4ext for doing back ups. 4ext has a lot of good tools.

I am moving on to the Samsung Note 3.
I will leave this link active for a few days. It is the All in one aroma installer for build 6.

So, for last few weeks I disabled swap, too. Including earlier modifications (tuning up lowest freq. to 368MHz, disabling zram), now phone is quite smooth.
Somethimes I have lag, especially on android play but it's very acceptable
Thanks again for your help with DZ. Hope that you are happy with Note, it's huge phone

Thanks,
The Note 3 is a beast of a phone. I will not root it for awhile until I know the phone is stable and the ROMS mature.
My daughter will use the G2.
The G2 is a great phone for its day. Most phones from that era would not handled 4.2.2 ROMS like SlimBean.
When my G2 would slow down I would boot to recovery and clear caches and fix permissions. That would cleans things.
Daily I would SDmaid Pro or All in Tool Bow and reboot. That kept my G2 in good running condition.
Note 3

I've found another strange behaviour similar to main topic. I've active call and on the same time my alarm rang and again I wasn't able to snooze it or turn it off. I wonder is this due to general system overload or rom itself.
I'll need to give a try for other rom, for testing purposes.
