lockup during sleep - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

My phone locks up 2-3 times a day when sleeping. When it locks up, the "SAMSUNG" splash screen briefly flashes, and the phone vibrates. If left alone, it gets warm. I have to hold the power button or pull the battery to restart it. I have been unable to adb into the phone to get logcat or dmesg after it locks up. Also, this never occurs while the phone is plugged in. I have tried Darkside v8 with both Venom and Faux 008 kernels, as well as Jedi Mind Trick 8/18 with Faux 009. With Darkside, I tried changing the screen-off governor with System Tuner to ondemand as mentioned at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29559002&postcount=8633, but it didn't help. Is there anything I may have done wrong, or any way to fix this? Thanks!

What happens if you don't touch the governor?

With conservative governor and screen-off set to no governor change, it crashed this morning. Running Mind Trick 8/18 with Faux 009.

I set the governor to ondemand and rebooted. Phone locked up within 10 minutes. Also, if it helps, I had Venom clocked at 384/1512 and Faux at 384/1728 (since I can't lower the max because of DVFS). Darkside v8 ran fine for about a week before the crashes began.

When you say lock up you're talking about sleep of death correct? Have you logcat afterwards?

It only locks up when the screen is off, and never when plugged in. I tried Streamline kernel a while ago and got sleep of death basically every time the screen turned off (and I went back to stock immediately), but this seems different (in that it doesn't just not wake up like Streamline, the phone vibrates and displays the SAMSUNG splash before it won't wake up). I tried to get a logcat with adb when it last crashed, but the phone didn't even show on my computer's USB bus. I restarted it and took a logcat and dmesg until it booted, which I can send you if you wish.

I tried flashing Gideon's stock OC/UV script (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20946429&postcount=574), thinking that my phone may just be unable to handle the default UV with Venom and Faux, but this caused it to SOD (without the SAMSUNG splash) almost immediately. I went back to my Nandroid of Darkside v8 (since Mind Trick didn't help things), and flashed Faux 009 with the undervolt set with System Tuner to -12.5mv below stock for all stock frequencies. If this doesn't help, is there a possibility that my phone is faulty? I have had it since December. Also, could this be related to the GPU or L2 overclocks in Venom and Faux (but if so, why wouldn't it crash when the phone is awake)? Thank you for your time.
If it still crashes, I have a flashable zip of the stock ICS kernel and its modules that I can try, or if extremely necessary I can ODIN back to stock.
EDIT: manual Faux UV did not help, just flashed stock.
EDIT2: It just crashed with stock kernel as well (still using Darkside v8 ROM). Since it doesn't seem to be ROM or kernel related, I'm worried it may be the phone (perhaps whatever passes for a PSU in a smartphone? It'd explain why it doesn't crash on battery power). I'll probably try flashing AOKP ICS next in case it's a TouchWiz problem. Is there anything I'm missing here, or should I ask for a warranty exchange if AOKP or stock ODIN still crashes?
EDIT3: Uninstalled System Tuner to be completely sure nothing's affecting the governor/voltage/clock/etc. (still Darkside v8 ROM, stock UVLE1 kernel), crashed within 15 minutes of restart.

I would put stock ROM back on it take it to a t mobile store and show them what's happening. If you have warranty they should replace it. Your CPU is shot. It won't go into deep sleep. And when running stock, it's not a software issue. It's hardware.

I was worried about this. I will ODIN back to stock tonight, but I won't be able to take it to a t-mobile store for a couple of days. Thank you for your help.
EDIT: I have been running stock UVLE1 (kernel and ROM) without root for almost a day now, and it has not locked up. According to CPU spy, the phone is able to enter deep sleep. Could there be something in the custom boot scripts used by Darkside and Mind Trick that my phone doesn't like? It's about the only thing I could think of that would not be fixed by the stock kernel. I might try re-rooting and/or flashing AOKP ICS in a few days if my phone holds up.

Which kernel should I have if I just want OC?

My phone is rooted and has s-off but I have a few issues. One is almost half the time when I hit the power button the screen doesn't turn on instantly but the soft buttons light up. It usually takes me hitting it 2-3 times swiftly to get my screen on. Another issue is sometimes wifi calling gets screwed up so it doesn't work and it drains my battery as a background task stuck on restarting. I really only want my phone overclocked so just have baconbits kernel. is there a newer version I should put on that fixes these issues?

Baconbits, to my knowledge, is the only OCd kernel available for the stock ROM. Your screen issue might actually be caused by underclocking though, do you have a screen off profile or a minimum set?

I just have it set to 368-1497. Should I up the minimum?

Give the overclock widget a try. Its available free on the market. In the advanced setting, set your screen off profile to 245 min and 806 max. Scroll down and hit "save" before you exit settings. That will keep your phone running at stock speeds while the screen is off and should stop the wake issue you're having. When you're using the phone you'll be at the higher speeds.
I already had the widget. Did what you said but it still occurs.

245 is *way* too low, especially if you have things running in the background ... just start raising the lower end up until it stops happening.

Setting it to stay at 800 while the screen is off seemed to fix it. Any ideas about wifi calling bugging out? It usually doesn't happen very often, I think when my phone has been on for a while without a restart.
overclock widget doesn't overclock anything.... it controls the speeds AFTER you've installed an overclock kernel. I highly suggest using flippys turbocharged 1.8ghz kernel. Just because it is capable of 1.8ghz doesn't mean that you need to run it at 1.8ghz. you can just do something like 1.1 or something in between. Give it a look.

Nobody said the OC widget overclocked anything. Did you read the OP's first post? It was suggested so as to enable a screen off profile because the OP is having a wake issue while using baconbits.

set the off screen profile to the lowest speed 200/200mhz and 100% priority and he wont have anymore wake issues, don't know what I was reading hahaha
The screen on issue doesn't happen anymore but I'm not satisfied with my battery life. In the past something was causing my battery to drain insanely fast so I un installed a bunch of unused apps and started checking background tasks but when browsing the internet for 20 minutes on my way home I use 30% of the battery, bluetooth on.

Anyone know if it is possible to run Pershoot's kernel on the stock rom that comes with the device? Any side effects?
I don't know enough to say 100% one way or the other, but I read in a post I can't find right now that only BaconBits is made to work with the stock rom.
FWIW, I tried to flash the 1.8 GHz kernal on my stock G2 this morning, and got stuck in a boot loop.
On AndroidCentral people are saying they have improved battery life with CM7 nightlies. I'd like to try running a ROM finally. Do I need to get rid of my Baconbits kernel before proceeding? I already backed up everything with Titanium.

NO. The first thing you need to do is flash clockworkmod 3.0.0.5, which is totally different than ROM Manager. As of right now the latest clockworkmod available through ROM Manager is 2.5.1.3. If you haven't flashed that yet (2.5.1.3) do that first through ROM Manager. The best way to flash 3.0.0.5 is to find the .img file, place it on your sd card and run the commands from terminal emulator. After that just wipe data/factory reset, wipe davlik cache and flash the latest nightly .zip, reboot, then the latest gapps .zip. Go to the development forum and the first post in the nightly vendor vision thread has all the links you'll need.

Stuck on boot animation

Syndicate 1.2
Genocide 2
This has happened twice now. Turn the phone on, it boots, plays my boot animation (helix) and then sits at the end of the animation, and never starts up. It gets really hot, cpu not battery.
Tried fixing permissions, wiping and reflashing. Only Odin works (what I did the first time)
Thinking it is genocide, as I didn't have any issues until I upped to version 2, from 1.1.

Honestly, this has happened to me from time to time when the circle is going under Android Man. I just battery pull and reboot and all is well. Another reason why journal on can be your friend...freezing boot animations or shutdowns. I am always 1400 max but not under 200 minimum EDIT...for what its worth, I reverted back to Genocide 1.1 IAP from 2.0

If you have it happen again, pull battery, boot into recovery, wipe cache and Dalvik 3x and reboot. I know you did this already but give it one more shot that way. If it freezes, don't let it sit there fighting to boot. Have you been trying different boot animations? Maybe Odin to clean out some left over stuff in your system if you don't get it working. I have the exact same setup as you currently but with Nebula theme that has its own boot ani. Helix is on my all time fav list though
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
If you Odin and restore everything, you still have a bad system somewhere. You should start fresh without restoring everything and see if it still happens. Then add a few things at a time to see what causes it. Before reinstalling the boot ani, wipe cache and Dalvik.

[Q] Trinity Kernel settings

I reflashed stock JB kernel the other day and found my phone to be running very smoothly. But I can't stand the colours on my purply screen, so back to Trinity (latest stable release).
The problem is, I'm getting a lot of lag and jerkiness on Trinity. Google Now takes forever to load, responsiveness takes a hit, and it generally feels like that whole "Project Butter" has turned into cold chunks of margarine.
I did buy the Trinity app to change settings. Is there anything I should be doing with Trinity that would give me stock-like smoothness and performance? I have a feeling there is some default setting in Trinity that is supposed to be helpful for some users but for me it's just killing the experience.
Or alternately, would I get better results with Franco?
I had similar issues. Not flowing very well , reboots and crashes. Also even though I bought the trinity app changing the clock speeds made the phone very very unresponsive. Tried many times to install it but no luck. Swapped back to Franco / glados (tried air kernel which was nice for battery but a bit laggy)
Franco also has trinity settings you can play with

Me personally had a better experience than Franco. But all the phone are different and some might like trinity and some might like Franco. Seems like yours like Franco more
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Trinity Kernel, overclocked to 1.4GHz
Personally I've had ridiculously good results with Trinity - with 384 GPU, not 512 (1536-384-Stable35). Absolute butter even when I have very resource heavy, multiple, tasks running - and havn't had a forced reboot, freeze or anything of the sort even once. Interactive/SIO, min 307, max 1190. Everything else on default (except screen colours/gamma which I changed to my liking).
That said, if the 384 GPU is also not working for you I suppose you can give Franco or the other kernels a try, every phone set probably responds a little differently to each kernel.

try using supersu instead of superuser. also, update your busybox. a lot of people have issues with root apps obtaining su slowly with superuser on jelly bean, which leads to lag.
I have good flow with trinity kernels. No lag or unresponsivness

Already doing both, thanks for the input.
I'm using 1344/307 and I also previously tried 1536/384. My phone seems to have some overheating issues so I don't want to crank it too hard... Just want to get close to stock performance.
I'll try interactive / sio. Are those essentially what the stock kernel uses?

i like ondemand/deadline. overheating.. whats your cpu temperature? most think that their devices are overheating when it falls in the normal range. tkt comes with widgets(in the app drawer widget menu), put the no background cpu temp widget on your homescreen and youll also get a cpu temperature reading in your status bar. at 100C the thermal throttle will kick in to lower your cpu speed and cool down your device. the safety shutdown temperature is 110C, your cpu will automatically shut down at that point. 110C is only reachable if you turn off the thermal throttle in the tkt app and you are benching your phone at a high oc. otherwise, i wouldnt worry about overheating.
The other thing is I get lockups every day or three. Today I rebooted the phone and plugged in the charger while it was rebooting. The moment the screen went off the phone was locked up. Power button would not respond. Unplugging/plugging the charger did not light up the screen. Had to do a battery pull.
In fact this happened again a second time in a row. Is there a reason the phone is locking up immediately after boot if I have the charger in? I'm trying it again a third time with the charger out, letting the screen auto-sleep before I touch the phone. Okay apparently it has nothing to do with the charger.
EVERY time I start the phone up now, if I don't unlock the screen myself before it auto-sleeps, the phone locks up and auto-reboots again. WTF??

are you undervolting at all? which yrinity kernel are you using? did you happen to use franco kernel before using trinity? try using a different charger too, ive had similar issues with a certain charger before too, until i started using a different charger.
Despite the fact that I disabled "Set On Boot" in Trinity Kernel Toolbox, it does seem I'm still set to interactive/sio on boot. And check out the logcat I captured over USB when I was doing a reboot and it locked up:
http://pastebin.com/sSe9eFXT
In particular to trim out just the TKT lines and the last few lines before lockup:
Code:

So it would seem that right after TKT says "let's restore settings" it locks up, if the screen is off, when set to interactive/sio. Huh?

See my post immediately after yours.
No undervolting at least that I know of. I tried cranking max screen off frequency up in case that was the cause, and tried going back to default CPU settings. Still does the same upon reboot.
But I can confirm that if I uninstall TKT completely and boot with Trinity Kernel, there is no screen-off lockup. Whatever settings were being restored by TKT were causing the phone to freeze if the screen was off. I'll leave it at that for now and give it another go when it's not so lovely and sunny outside.

delete the data for the tkt app(main phone settings, apps). dont use set on boot, its usually not a good idea. my screen off is set to 307. if you are overclocking, you have to disable smart reflex mpu or you will freeze and reboot if not other issues. turning off smart reflex is very important if raising the cpu speed. otherwise the device will try to automatically set the voltage too low for the cpu speed and itll cause freezes/reboots.

smart reflex is a built into stock, it controls your voltages. the thing about it is that it doesnt know overclock or undervolting, so if you overclock or undervolt, it restores voltages for stock cpu speeds. which causes freezes if youre trying to overclock by setting the voltages too low.

Yes, set on boot is for critical settings only, like frequency policy and voltages.
All trivial settings are always restored as they were set.
What ROM are you on? I jumped into the middle of this page and missed it.
Side note, if it's settings being restored, clear the app data using the option in the menu.

did you try clearing the tkt data, or uninstalling it and reinstalling it? honestly, this is the first time ive seen this behavior. do you have any other cpu control apps installed?

No I do not. I will try reinstalling now since I uninstalled it completely.

Yes, set on boot is for critical settings only, like frequency policy and voltages.
All trivial settings are always restored as they were set.

[Q] Random Reboots driving me crazy

I've had this E4gt for a few days now. First thing I did was root it with the FI27 Odin one click method, then install Agats source 6.5 kernel. Had some random reboots that I shrugged off as my phone not liking any undervolting. But it still does it, even under _dan's lightweight v0.2 rom
It isn't completely random though. Most of the reboots are when I'm trying to wake up the phone after letting it sit idle. Other times it'll reboot while it's sleeping idle. it has NEVER rebooted during use (I ran pandora/poweramp for 8 hours no problem)
It also occurs under most governor settings.
It almost seems that for whatever reason, idling at 200mv is causing the phone to crash and reboot.
the only overclock utility I use is System Tuner Pro, however I don't know if this could be the cause.
Only other option I can see is unroot/flash stock FI27 and see what happens, but I really don't want to go through the hassle, especially having to get another effing phone (since assurion can't be bothered to ever send a proper working phone)
bit of info on my phone I guess
Rooted it from bone stock factory FI27 using Odin FI27 One click rooting (success on first try)
Agats source 6.5 kernel
_dan's Lightweight v0.2 rom
Ktoonservative kernel (however it seems every kernel does this)
Scheduler set to noop
no oc/uv settings currently
I use System Tuner Pro to adjust clocks/governor settings, etc however, I haven't done many tweaks besides my OOM settings.
Stock rooted with Agat's source 6.5 was causing reboots as well, under the same conditions (deep sleep reboots, and waking from deep sleep)

Is the phone new or did you acquire it used? I had random reboot issues...tried numerous software fixes (new ROM, new kernel, uninstalling apps). Finally found the problem...a faulty power button. The solution for me was to replace the phone under warranty.
Its an assurion refer. According to the phones lifetime stats however it wasnt used for more than a week or so in august.
Also its not the power button. I watched it lock up and reboot earlier today
I'm almost thinking I should call asurion and tell them they sent me another effed uup phone and demand a nib phone. But that means unrooting this one and I'm not sure how big of a pain that will be

Ktoon... gov gave me some odd results too, try pegasusq and don't under volt until you have established a stable setup.
Honestly though try a different rom, FI27 seemed buggy to me but FI03 was alright. If you want to try Jellybean then give Codename a try. Its been rock solid.

Interesting that you would mention ktoonservitive!
My setup has been always dead stable. But....
I've had a few random reboots when on calls lately and have been running that (ktoon..) for a little while now.
I'll have to switch that out and see what happens.
Well im currebtly running the latest version of recaulk so ill report back with my results if i gwt any reboots.

After running Re-Caulk all night, I've come to the conclusion that FI27 was the culprit.
Ktoon probably wasn't helping, as I was running it quite often.
I'm using whatever kernel comes with re-caulk, min at 100mhz, max at 1400mhz, -25mv. Battery life is better than before (though, with my 3800mah battery, its already insane)
buttery smooth goodness too
Bit of an update since I made this thread.
Running smartbench 2011 I was getting abysmall productivity scores, and it seemed overall my scores were AWFUL no matter what in any benchmark (overclocking to 1.5 would barely get the almost to baseline numbers)
I called asurion and told them I was having reboot issues with the phone etc, they sent me another refurb today.
Scores are exactly as they should be now. Productivity scores in smartbench 2011 went from 2500-2800 to 4000+
I think the CPU on my first e4gt had a problem with the processor, which is why deep sleeping was crashing it.
I do realize benchmark scores mean nothing in terms of real world performance, but when there's a known baseline number for a particular phone, and your phone is struggling to even get close to that baseline (even with a maximum overclock) there is clearly something wrong with it.

[Q] Random Reboots

My Note 3 randomly reboots and a factory restore hadn't solved the issue. There's no bootloop issue, it just reboots a few times a week, sometimes twice a day. Any possible solutions?

dont install any apps, except for the essential one, and see if it reboots. Probably it might be an app which is hogging your memory

You're probably right, I had like half the app store installed. I did another hard reset and will see if it happens again. Is there a way to check if there's any specific apps that are memory hogs?
I had this cleaner app that kept asking me to clear my memory because 90%+ of it was being constantly used. I figured 3GB was enough

Are you rooted, stock, custom? If your using a stock kernel would you have installed any apps that would require a custom kernel such as android tweaker.
This exact samething happened to me on my rooted stock S3 running a stock kernel. I installed android tweaker pro not realizing I needed to have a custom kernel installed and it caused random reboots 3 or 4 times a day. Flashing back to stock or doing a factory reset would not fix the issue I just ended up sending it back because I wasn't sure what the issue was then realized it was Android tweaker that caused the random reboots.

Running stock everything
no android tweaker installed
My note did this for a bit when I unlocked it. Called tmobile they told me it was a Gmail issue. So go. Into settings/apps disable Gmail reboot then re-enable it. It's something with how Samsung integrated it into the system.

I am currently running*DARTHSTALKER*v5*and Compulsion Ultimate v6. *I have been running Jovys roms and kernels for a few months already and absolutely love it. *Just recently (about a week ago) I decided to go into Trickster Mod and try overclocking it. *The phone runs fine for a while but all of a sudden out of nowhere when it is just sitting on idle it will reboot. *At least once or twice a day. *I only know this because I will wake up in the morning and I see the notification that Trickster Mod set on boot was successful. *The last 2 times it happened, I received an Exchange mail and it looks like when these emails came in, it woke the device and then it rebooted. *I installed "CatLog" from the play store to see what the logs are saying and I see about 8 of these messages around the time of the reboot:*
296 ThermalEngine E Threshold 0 Action [0] : shutdown
I know the phone is not overheating when this happens. *I am wondering if the kernel has an issue with the Intelli-Thermal Controls or something. *I did enable that and set the thresholds to 95 and 100. *If that is Celsius or Fahrenheit I do not know since it is just a number value in trickster. *I was on Darthstalker v3 a couple days ago when this started happening and I thought upgrading to v5 would fix it but to no avail. *Does anybody have any thoughts or seen this issue?
I am going to try to overclock it again to the full 2.6 GHz (2649600) but this time turn off Intelli-Thermal and see if I still get this issue. *I am hoping I don't have a faulty device. *I never had a problem until I changed the max frequency from 2265600 to anything higher. *With the device not overclocked and with Intelli-Thermal enabled I do not get this problem; only when I introduce the slightest overclock into the mix.
Changed in trickster are as follows: (everything else is stock)
--Scheduler = sio
--Governor = ondemand (I think this was stock but just in case it wasnt)
--Max Frequency = 2649600
--MP-Decision = OFF
--Intelli-Plug = ON
--Intelli-Thermal Control = ON (freq throttle = 95, core offline = 100)

so it happened again today, noticed that I have about 1GB of free ram at start up, not sure if that's normal
