[Q] Screen flickers when it wake up from sleep

This is stock ROM.
Every time I flash bacon bits to overclock my phone I always noticed that my screen flickers when I turn off the phone's screen or press the button to wake up.
Sometimes it just gets stuck and it stats flickering like crazy and I can't unlock my phone because of it.
This only happens when I OC my phone. When I wipe the phone it works fine but no OC which is what I want.
Any way to fix this issue?

I don't use Bacon Bits, but I have experienced the flickering you speak of. It seems that happen when you go too far with the OC process. What happens if you were to lower your clockspeed a bit? Does it continue to happen for you?

Actually I OC my phone, but it's still set on 806MHz so even at lower clockspeed it still flickers. It's bugging the hell out of me.

EDIT:
Switched over to pershoot's kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847672 I can now overclock to 1.5 gHz with no problems anywhere. Aweseome.
I have this same problem and am bumping this thread.
I'm running stock rom with bacon bits v 0.3 - and my screen flickers when turning off so much that it won't turn off fully and opens the lock screen. I have to just try and try repeatedly to get it to work.
Any suggestions?

Yeah, I have flashed all the kernels even pershoot's and it still flickers. I'm using the original ROM that came with the phone not the original one posted on the forums. Maybe if I use the one posted on the forums that will work?

I have the stock rom as well - I first flashed baconbits kernel, but when that flickered, I flashed pershoots most recent kernel in recovery. No flickering anymore - sorry to say I don't know what's wrong. Try posting in the thread of the kernel you are currently running!

Well you know what I flashed an older version of pershoot mayeb I should try the newer one. I'll let you know what happens...

I had trouble flashing it with ROM Manager. Clockworkmod it. Here's the link to pershoots blog with the latest update links: http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/
Good luck!

Just tried it and nope... it's still doing it maybe it's just my phone.

Bring it up in this thread:

Pershoot is always monitoring it along with a bunch of other smart devs. Maybe they'll have a better idea - don't give up hope!

what app are you guys using to manage your OC?
if it's setCPU, set your scaling to Interactive on the main screen and in any profiles you're using.
also, if you are using any screen on/off animations, disable them (just to see, for troubleshooting purposes, if that might be the culprit)

Yeah, it's set on Interactive and so are the profiles. As for the screen on and off animation I believe that's in the CM7 RC1 ROM. I'm using the stock ROM so there's no option for that.

hehe, didn't even read what rom you were using. my bad.
kernels aside, it is very possible, as you mentioned earlier, that you guys got the chips in the stash that don't take to overclocking very well. even on a device like the G2/DZ that seems to take to higher clock speeds relatively easily, there are bound to be some that aren't as happy with the increased workload.
if I think of any other bright ideas, I'll let you know. I haven't played with baconbits a lot.

[Q] Reset max freq overclock setting to 1200 MHz after screen off on 4.1

With stock 4.1 and franco r210 for jb,
When I use setCPU to set cpu frequency max 1600 min 350, it can apply this setting.
see attached picture 1
But after screen off and on, I open setCPU to see that the max frequency setting is restored to 1200MHz...
see attached picture 2
Is that Project Butter side effect ?
How can I keep max cpu frequence on 1600 after screen on from screen off ?

No need with the shouting. (I always highly recommend swearing however )
JB itself is still technically a preview, franco hasn't had much time since release for everything to be working 100%. I'd stick with stock JB if I were you if you wanted to use JB right now
OP should be asking this question in Franco's thread as well or at least read it to find out if its a common problem. Not everyone is going to spoon feed.

Hi,
Take a look at this:
TunedFish said:
I flashed dev15, confirmed to frequencies did not reset after screen off, but after some benches, I decided to flash back to 210. Here's the strange part: NOW THE FREQUENCIES DO NOT RESET AFTER SCREEN OFF. As a matter of fact, when I flashed neck to 210, the frequency was set at 1600. Anyway, if someone wants to confirm this please report back.

Update: frequencies stick after screen off, but after reboot, it boots at 1600, headset volume resets to 0, hi performance audio resets to OFF, and gamma values reset to 0 (even though Franco app says otherwise).

Is it tested on a JellyBean? Because Fransisco Franco have created a Kernel only for JellyBean thats what we are talking about...

Yes for Jelly Bean, I'm not blind or idiot here.
Take the Imoseyon test kernel on his twitter (the "dev15"), flash, reboot then reflash Fransico's kernel.
And I personnaly tested, it works.

The Blu Kuban rom, lag on everything I do!?!?!?!

I'm running the blu kuban rom overclocked to 1.4 and min set to 200! I do have a few mods transparent status bar, center clock, and gray battery bar. Every time I click something open or to something there is a lag. Its the same with the screen rotation and lock screen. I tried to re-flashing and got the same results. Anyone else having the same problem?

Maybe you are having issues with the kernel you are using, or your overclock is unstable. Take it to stock speeds and see what it does.

Similar to what this guy said I have had problems with certain governors. Everytime I use Smartassv2 that is exactly how my phone acts... Try pegasusQ
But of course you haven't seen anything yet until you've been on the "goodness"
Blu Kuban is awesome as well of Course. TW vs. AOSP is all personal preference.

Overclocking above 1300 can get unstable try a Max of 1300 and play around with the governors to see what you like best. The kuban kernel has many to choose from. TW is not crap that is a personal opinion. Just play around with different roms until you find one you like best.

Wow, talk about an inflammatory, biased, opinionated, and unhelpful comment. I like pa, but is it really necessary to jump in a thread like this to bash another ROM and promote your own?
To answer the question that was asked, I would try reducing the clock speed. Setting it that high usually results in lag and instability. Not to mention overclocking is rather unnecessary for this phone since most apps are optimized for much slower devices. (my opinion anyhow) I would recommend 1.3 or lower and change your governor to Wheatley, hyper, pegasus, or Skywalker. I have found those to be the most stable and lag free.

1.4 woah there lol
Yeah try knocking that down.. I run at 1,000 and have zero lag what so ever..

hi
i'm runing [ROM] AOKP(Jellybean 4.1.2)Task & Ktoonsez (10/28) (AT&T/Rogers),and i have problem with over hiting,after 15 minutes of using the phone get very hot and on some games it's stop working and get rebooting.
in addition i can't change the performance of this rom,when i change the speed from 1.5GHz to 1GHz and the governor to save mode it go back to the last mode.
i have 2 Questions:
1.how di i change the cpu setting?
2.what karnel is the best fer this rom?
thanks In advance.

I would probably ask that over in the rom thread I'm sure you can't be the only one having that kind of issue

You may wanna try ktoonsez's kernel. IT 747. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756776. This kernel fixed my heat issues. I was running CM10 w/ the stock CM10 kernel & my phone was also getting really hot. When you flash this kernel, it will install an app called Ktweaker. Ktweaker will allow you to change CPU settings and voltages. Hope this helps.

I'm not really sure how to fix the speaker issue. I don't think I have even ever flashed that ROM. What's it like? And what do you mean speaker problem? Elaborate a little bit.

i mean that the speaker is very low on sound when you are speaking on the phone,you hardly hear the other person on the other side of the line,but the ring of the phone is ok.

Yeah. I know my volume is screwy too. Sometimes I have to turn it all the way down then back up to get it to work right.

To answer your questions
1. You could be using your systems performance in ROM control, this will sometimes override ktweaker if you do not have lock frequency checked(you should always have this checked).
2. The best kernel for aokp is preference, but in my opinion I would flash KT(ktoonsez) kernel seeing how it us made to run for aokp task and ktoonsez ROM.
These settings are for Ktweaker app included in KT747 kernels:
If your worried about your phone overheating try undervolting your phone. I have some stable settings:

[Q] GNex Reboots when running certain apps

I'm currently running PA 3.6 and the AK Diamond kernel. 99% of the time, everything works fine, however when I start running Puzzle & Dragons, the phone gets really hot and more often than not will reboot before I finish playing. I have also tried using the AK Kubo (stable) kernel, and it does the same. I'm kind of a noob so I don't tweak the kernel settings very much, and I don't really know how to go about fixing this. One thing to note is that on the stock PA 3.6 kernel the phone still gets really hot but it won't reboot. I'd like to keep using the AK kernel as it makes my phone run really smoothly but I would also like to try and fix this problem.

The sole common point to that whole story is Puzzle and Dragons.

Are you saying that AK kernel and P&D just don't get along? Because although it gets hot, on PA 3.6 with its stock kernel it won't forcibly reboot my phone like it does with AK. I've found a temporary workaround which is to switch the governor to powersave while playing...but that doesn't really fix the issue...

there's this thing called quality of the components used; the chinese can make the best and the worst.
every chip handles the tasks that are required of them yes, but that's why you see devices that can OC to 1.6, 1.7 even 1.8ghz stable, or UV like a boss, and others that can't handle even 1.6ghz oc or huge UVs.
for example, mine can UV like a boss, but not so good at OC'ing.
thermal throttling of the cpu might be more agressive with some kernels.
