Anyone else having sleep of death issues recently on JB? Im running the stock JRO03C Build rooted, busyboxed, and deodexed (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737849), and only MOD I have on top of that is a battery percentage mod(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738335). Recently in the past week or so I've had a few sleep of death incidents. This morning was one of them where my alarm didn't go off! My notification light was on, and my phone was plugged into the charger, but couldn't wake it. Anybody else experiencing this issue, or have any suggestions of things to look at/try? All the other threads on this are from ICS, so not sure if they would apply since this in on pretty much stock JB.
I don't know but think people either don't know the meaning of stock or I have to learn the meaning
What you described is not stock Rom.and to your answer no I don't get sod.
True. I'm not on stock, I guess I meant to say that my ROM was created from stock. Good to know that someone else is not experiencing this though. Thanks.
The only issue I have is that the phone freezes after recieving or making a call.
That happened about two times only.
I only have about two weeks with the phone and I upgraded to JB as soon I got the phone. I didn't even run the setup wizar in JB: just unlocked the bootloader and flashed 4.1.
I though it was a bad flash and applied the yakju 4.0.4 factory image and the flashed the OTA to get stock JB 4.1.1. I had the issue only one time with that setting.
Right now, my phone is completely yakju. I don't remember my variation. I just recall it came with 4.0.1 and upgraded itself to 4.0.2 and no more.
Cheers!

I was having screen freeze while using the google reader app. Had to pull battery.
Am running the same ROM, with battery percentage mod as well. Stock kernel. Not sure why.
possible sleep of death fix?

I was running stock 2.3.2 on my Evo Shift and was experiencing this issue. try backing up your sd card onto your desktop and then formatting it. it worked for me. I run an unofficial version of cm9. the only issue i still have is that my htc logo that shows at boot is still gone, and with that gone I cant easily select items in hboot/fastboot on the device. but thats for another forum for another day.

1. 2.3.2 isn't JB.
2. The GNex doesn't have an SD.
3. It's also NOT an Evo shift.
4.Nice first post.

good point. i also was wrong about the sd card anyways. i flashed cm9 back on it. turned auto brightness off. it had the issue. rebooted. turned it back on. re-enabled autobrightness. no issue.
thanks for the compliment.
I'm on 4.2 and have the issue. A few times a day, I'll pull it out of my pocket and I see the "backlight" turn on but screen is on. (I'm not sure how there is a backlight if is amoled but i do see some kind of something very very faint )
In Developer Options put all animation scales to .5x.

I experienced a similar issue on 4.1, but it would happen almost once day (very annoying). I'm now on a 4.2 rom and I haven't seen the issue in weeks. :laugh:

Hey guys,
I don't know whether anyone encounter this before. But my phone sometimes not frequently will just blackout by itself. The saving grace is that, I do not need to pull the battery to get it working again. I just need to hold on power button for it to reboot again.
Anyone facing this issue before?
By the way, I'm on stock rom and kernel. 4.0.2 here.
Thanks in advance.

unlocked and rooted? I would do a factroy reset and see if that would solve your problem. It could be an app you downloaded.
I'm not rooted at all. Stock rom and kernel.
Anyone has any idea on this?
I've had similar problems but i'm rooted any it was a problem with the governor not bringing the phone out of sleep. I think it was the hotplug feature or something.
Not sure what it'd be on stock, sorry!

i've had my gnex for over 3 weeks and yesterday was the first and only time that i've experienced random shutdowns and reboots. i think i know the culprit.
i was at a location known spotting vzw 3G coverage. no 4G. i had issues getting reception w/ my moto droid phones at this location. this is the first time i've been there w/ my gnex. the gnex shutdown and rebooted twice. a third time, the reboot at stuck at the intro video. had to pull battery.
since i came home to good 4G/3G coverage, my phone has not acted up once.
me thinks random reboots is radio related.
Hello,
I've been experiencing annoying freezing up issues with my second-hand Glide. In all cases, the freeze happens with the screen off and a race condition ensues discharging the battery (even when plugged into power). Searching around, I've seen a good number of references to this problem:
androidforums.com/samsung-captivate-glide/462710-freeze-ups-anyone.html
gsmarena.com/samsung_i927_captivate_glide-reviews-4071.php
comparecellular.com/cell-phones/galaxy-s-glide
but I have not been able to find any resolution. Sometimes I feel like this: xkcd.com/979 . In essence I'm trying to determine if this is a hardware fault or something which can be fixed by software. Seeing minimal Glide development does not help since there are very limited options for ROMs. Since this device did get a nod for ICS, there's still hope in that, but until then have to suffer.
Anyone seen a resolution other than exchange? Warranty?
Unfortunately, this is quite common but there are few users that did not had any freezes since day one of their Glides.
One issue is, you have your Google calendar sync and you have "Auto Sync" active. This leads for the Calendar to Sync improperly during sleep mode resulting in a sync loop, which makes the device unresponsive thus, wont wake up upon pressing power/lock key. Solution, uncheck the "Auto Sync" function in Settings, Manually sync everything, or uncheck the "Sync Calendar on your Google account.
The other thing which is very common, is leaving wifi on while charging. This results on the same issue above but the reason is not clear. I experience this one in 1 out of 5 chances, so I turn wifi off or set the wifi sleep policy to "when screen turns off" in Settings. Happens on stock and custom ROM(s), except when Cranium Kernel is flashed.
In conclusion, I never thought that these are hardware issues ATM, for my previous Samsung devices also have these, but is eliminated by updating firmware, or flashing a custom ROM.
Thank you for the suggestions. I will verify wifi sleep policy as well as disable calendar sync to see if it helps. And now that there is some activity regarding ICS for this unit, maybe I'll get to test a new ROM to see if it helps.
thanks again
Neither unsynching google+calendars, or the WiFi+charging solutions worked for me.
Is there any hope for those of us with no immediate remedy?
Has Samsung even acknowledged that this is an issue?
When do you predict us getting an ICS update that will solve the issue?
Its a damn shame since I'm ****in loving this phone so far, yet i can't even use it when I want to sometimes.
Well yeah....I can confirm. I reflashed my device and restore my apps...did not do any mods and whatnot. Used it for a day and charged it overnight, no internet. And bam! Sleep Death. Like i said, this is common, and does not think that this is a hardware issue for a lot is experiencing it. So for now, dont left your glide charging overnight, or if you will, download a night clock, or use the stock desk clock. You will have a clock beside you and will keep your device awake all night.
Interesting, I don't have that "sleep death" issue.
Do you have any idea when we'll receive the ICS update?

The issue you addressed is so called "sleep death." A few weeks past, ATT announced that 10 of their devices will get ICS in less than a month (including the Glide). No word from Rogers when will they update their version of the device.
Unfortunately AT&T did not state when they would push the update as well they only named the devices that will get it.
Has Samsung acknowledged the Sleep Death issue, and whether they will resolve it in the next OTA update?

I believe Samsung is already knowledgeable about the issue....unfortunately, it is not that easy to make a software update just to solve 1 problem (on the contrary to the Captivate SGH-I897 with GPS issues on Eclair, ATT immediately released a FW update within less than 2 weeks to fix it). And, even though I said the Sleep Death is quite common, not all of the users have this, so again, maybe unless a considerable large number of users (or all users) experience this, they might look into it. So I also believe that Samsung (along with ATT/Rogers) will correct the issue on the next update. When? Heaven knows.
If you are experiencing the sleep death more than twice a day, without doing anything, or if you believe non of your installed programs is at fault, and you are still in your return period, I suggest you exchange your device. You might get a unit that is unaffected. My Sleep Death only occurs when I left the phone charging for extended periods of time, like charging overnight which I always do. As I've mentioned, I keep the device awake like installing a night clock application or activating the stock desk clock app.
Well I'm going to try turning on the night clock app this night and see if that stops the sleep death.
And I bought the phone second hand off craigslist. Even if its within the 90-day period, I doubt I'll get any warranty/return ability as I am not the original customer.
interesting problem, will this should hold me back from buying it when my friends will be in the states?

I can't say.....but in my case, the issue is not really that serious in my part. As I said, when I left my device plugged in extended periods of time, then the Sleep Death might trigger....but I never experience any Sleep Deaths while the phone is unplugged and using it throughout the day (on the contrary of the OP's post). In fact, my last sleep death was 10 days previous....it's been reliable and does the job.

I got the sleep death once. It just happened but I have not had it again. I must admit it is scary but I heard you can flash another rom as that is supposed to fix it. I do have the stock rom from Rogers and have not rooted yet.

Well that is a good sign....when did you experience? how? please keep your observations. for me, I can replicate the issue by plugging/charging it....I do also have the stock Rogers ROM and I am rooted......my only tip is, don't leave your Glide charging in extended periods (more than 3-4 hours or so).
i have a therory about that, as some other user mentaioned when they useed adracat kernel (that is OC) the problem is gone. maybe samsung uses a underclocked tegra2 prossesor and that tha problem.

No the charging for extended periods does not matter. Every night I set my phone to charge at around Midnight and unplug it at around 6:30 AM. I also have Wifi on. I heard it was WIFI and charging that did it. Luckily I am not experiencing it. Gabby did you flash and install the Clock Work Mod? I am thinking about it.

this is exactly what I am experiencing....and I can replicate this issue about 8/10 times....well this should hopefully be fixable via FW update (like my SGH-I896 from 2.1 to 2.2).
Yes I have CWMR installed and is very handy....I am now going back to flash OsiMood ROM for I think I already know what triggers the Sleep Death specially in stock ROMs....
Will flashing a new ROM be an issue for me when the OTA ICS update drops?
I read that rooting your phone would be problematic when ICS comes.
If its not an issue, which ROM should I use that will get rid of the Sleep Death issue?
And suppose the ICS fixes the sleepdeath. Will I be able to unroot my phone and revert it back to stock so that I can put ICS on it?
Sorry for the long post!

Some people have stated that once you install a Rooted Rom you will no longer get pushed the updated from your service provider. They stated this from Gingerbread 2.3.5 to 2.3.6
In order to go back to stock you have to somehow back up what you have before you flash anything or find it on the web. I am not sure about this but have heard of others doing this.
Your other option is use a ROM that someone cooks with ICS when it becomes available. I have heard of many people toying with getting this set up.
its real nice to finally have some ICS goodness on my phone, but i have found some issues.
my Motorola Roadster 2 bluetooth speakerphone does not work well with this version of ICS. will not let me use the call/text button.
i am finding some apps not working correctly, i.e. Pushover - the notifications do not make a sound. Not sure if that is an app issue, or an ICS issue.
*edit* ok so it seems that i am not getting any notification sounds. sms, voicemail, etc...
also the volume in general does not seem as loud as the 2.3.6 firmware was.
anyone else find any issues?
*UPDATE* after wiping within cwmr most of my issues were no longer present. the only problem i had still was that notification sounds didnt work after a couple hours. i dont know the cause, but i used audio manager widget and set the profile to loud, and restarted phone. havent had them go out since.
I have all these issues except tue bluetooth thing

atleast it is not me.
i am going to reflash my phone to see if it may be an issue with not clearing out the phones memory and storage first...
My wifi didn't work for a while. It would see my access point but wouldn't connect. Reset the router and everything went back to normal. GPS works, Stereo BT/OBEX works, 4G works, camera works. Those were my big items, as I'm sure they are most people's.
My only issues are that I can't switch to 2g (At&t rom....) and how friggin Touch-wizzy everything is. I was expecting them to embrace the whole holo thing a lot more, but all the buttons feel like they belong in GB, same with the notification menu and the settings icons.
EDIT: I am on rogers, in case any rogers people see this so they know that everything works on our network
i wiped via cwmr and reflashed the ics rom. notifications work again. have not rooted yet, wondering if that may have been an issue with it...
Changing the lcd DPI causes the rom to corrupt i guess, since when i do it, after the reboot, i get to the samsung "logo" and then black screen, and it feels like the device has shut down. The only app that would say "success" when i change the value is Lcd Density Modder.
- i had the notification sound bug, but then i changed the notification sounds to my likings, and then i used Audio Manager widget to set the volume loud, no problems ever since.
ok rooted and all is fine. maybe i just had a bad flash. my bluetooth speakerphone still doesnt work, but that is an issue that i will have to research
For me, i had the only issue with ICS (excluding the known thing with the keyboard not flashing) - timezones from 2011 year with wrong summer times.
Luckyly fixed it with timezone fixer from google play.
Tethering doesn't work, seems to be broken and results in a blackscreen.. Both Usb and Wifi Hotspot give this issue.. Anyone else getting this
One weird thing my phone does is when it's been asleep for a while, the lockscreen clock will fall behind and when I wake it up, it'll catch up a couple dozen minutes at a time.

I've rogers version but unlocked and working with a local carrier. Wifi is not a problem at all, i'm getting the same speed and used wifi continuously for over 2 hrs to download all my apps back after the update.
When typing with the keyboard, pressing the alt. Key once makes it select all the special characters. I liked the older one where if you press it once, it operates just once when selecting the special character, and pressing it twice makes it select more than one. Not that big of an issue but to some people it may be.
Also, the brightness thing. When I turn off the screen, and turn it on again, it flashes from the highest brightness to the current.

On AT&T here, and having wifi issues as well... Once the phone drops wifi at idle, it doesn't want to pick it back up unless I turn wifi off and back on again. Setting the wifi to never sleep has been my only workaround.
Also having some issues with the button backlights. If I don't touch the phone long enough for the button backlight to turn off, touching the buttons won't turn the light back on. Touching the screen turns the backlight on again, but it's slightly annoying.
I haven't noticed any wifi issues and I use my Glide exclusively as a wifi device. I'm copying my backup of Inception v2 back right now though because the battery drain on the ICS ROM is definitely an issue. Losing like 10% an hour with my phone just sitting there with the screen off.

Have you ever took note of your battery life with a custom ROM or kernel? When I picked up my Glide it had a stock ROM but I only had it for an hour before I put a custom on it. I didn't mess with the stock one at all so I can't compare to stock 2.3.5/6. But with Inception v2/ardatdat, it was definitely better.
I was going to restore my backup but copying it back to my phone made me realize how painful it is to copy backups with CWMR 6 compared to 5. That new blobs folder makes so many files that it took 3 hours to copy 3 of my backups over USB. Ouch.
But since last night, the battery life seems to be behaving better. Its been sitting here and not just dying. I'm wondering if it could be the battery stats file. Maybe I'll try wiping it. I'm sure once we get a lower voltage kernel and I can underclock with profiles for the screen-off and stuff, it'll be fine again.
Unrelated but has anyone taken a screenshot with the ROM yet? ICS is supposed to have it built in, power button + volume down at the same time for a few seconds from what I read, but didn't seem to work.
Edit: Its home + power button at the same time.

when you flashed ICS did you wipe everything then run the ics installer? my first install sound and such didnt work, so i wiped the phone in cwmr and reflashed ics and it is better that it was on 2.3.6
I have a problem. Yesterday, my phone started rebooting randomly. It's been happening almost every time I use the phone. I rooted and flashed the Calk E4GT 2 4.0.4 ROM about a month or so ago and have had no issues to speak of with it at all. I disabled the facial unlock because I noticed that the reboot would routinely happen with either I was trying to unlock or put the phone in standby or while I was trying to use it in some way.
In the past I had noticed similar behaviors randomly, but never became a persistent issue. Anyone have any ideas as to what the culprit could be?
If I need to reload...how do I go about doing that? Just pick a new ROM and flash from CM to start from scratch? If so, what's a good ROM that is 4.0.4 based to run with....Cyanogenmod?

I'm having the same problem with the stock ff18 rooted...started out of the clear blue, can't place my finger on a consistent pattern. I'm gonna try installing a new kernel and see if that helps. If it works I'll let you know.
I disabled facial recognition security and cleared dalvik and normal cache with clockworkmod. My phone hasn't rebooted basically all day so far.
Something must have been stuck in the cache possibly that was causing issues.

Every now and then my phone is getting stuck in landscape. I first thought is was the ROM I was using. Then today I unrooted and put back to stock and it happened again. If I reboot it fixes it. Is this just a JB bug?
Sounds more like something wrong with your device.
It started after 4.1
Doesn't mean it's not a problem with your device. A search turns up no complaints about anything like this and I've never had it before.

I have noticed the same thing on mine... and it started happening after the 4.2.2 update. It doesn't happen often though and only reboot fixes it. It has to be software related...I don't know what causes it though...
