Ok guys, here's the thing. First My Phone Specs:
Android 2.2 Baseband 2.15.00.05.02 Kernel 2.6.32.15-ge2fb08e
Fresh Evo 3.3.0.1 Software 3.29.651.5 PRI 2.15_003 PRL 01115
Previous PRI was 1.70 don't remember the rest Sorry
I updated last night to the Radio that comes out on the NEW 2.3 update. The only reason I updated it, was because both my siblings Evos (stock unrooted 2.3 update) have better reception than mine, and I actually have NO signal at my sisters house, yet hers is Perfect. I updated the radio off of ROM manager (a first) only because other evo owners said it was a good update.
Since then, I unplugged the phone at 7am, went to school, played music for like 13 mins, sat in class (low/bad signal - Nothing New always like that), and by 9:40am I had 50% battery. NO USAGE AT ALL. Main consumption was Android OS which didn't even exist in the battery info page prior to the update (I had and still have Android system, and both appear there) at 40% of the battery usage, then the normal ones.
Phone was dead by 11:50am
Although the signal is poor, Mon-Wed same schedule, class, and usage (NONE), I had 89-85% at 9:40am.
I click on Android OS, and I get NO information at all. It was never there before, and now I have Android OS consuming all the battery, and the Normal Android System at about 10-13% normal.
The weird thing is, it's 2h33m17s since unplugged, and Android OS is at 2h11m12s 31% Data sent 11.43 KB Data Received 903.75 KB and my battery is already at 53%. At this rate I'll have to charge it 3 times today, with NO USAGE. Android System is only at 13m.
I have restarted it several times, didn't work.
What do you guys suggest?
If I were to do the OTA Update would that fix it, if it has something to do with the radio update I did?
I know there isn't a root for 2.3 yet, but I'd rather wait with a phone that's actually usable.
I know the update removes Root access and Roms and all, BUT doesn't it also overwrite any Flashed Radios?
Sorry for the Long Post, but I just wanted to explain as much as I could to help you guys Help Me.
Thanks in advance for the Help Guys
Have you checked running services/apps that may be hogging alot of resources such as CPU and/or data? I am rooted so i dont have all those damn services running on CM7 but when i wasnt rooted, I would always end the BS that didnt need to run. Always left background data off unless i went to the market and auto sync always off too. If you dont have anything that appears to be hogging resources, just backup your apps with titanium backup and factory restore. I've have had a few problems that the factory restore just took care of. And doesnt take that long really. 15 mins tops and everything was back to normal. Just make sure you know your gmail account. Almost forgot mine the first time. lol Let us know

I did check it, but it was all the normal things like Tasker, Lookout, and some normal one.
The weird thing is, why did it all of a sudden happen after the flashed radios, and why did the Android OS all of a sudden appear out of nowhere?
I really thinking of just doing OTA update if I have to go the Factory reset way. I know it will kill my root, but Unrevoked should almost be out with a solution.
Just thought it was really weird how it happened after the radio combo flash. I would also just like to solve it and stay on my current ROM for now. Whatever solves it you know.
Why not just downgrade your radios?
Also I would flash the radios from recovery or get the PC36IMG.zip you can flash from your bootloader I don't trust ROM manager I use to use it but had nothing but problems also you should change recoverys to ra Amon 2.3 some PPL have problems with cwm I did and never looked back .

Oh also if your on the gb radios you should probably be on a gb ROM.

I had thought about that, but usually stay away from radios, since most problems arise from this. Hence THIS Post
I always used cwm, but have heard about certain problems which I haven't had luckily. I am on the older version though, which is recommended for radio flashes.

That was what I was really wondering. I thought it something to do with me being on Froyo instead of GB. Although the radio combos are out there, non of them said this, but it makes sense though.
My phone's almost dead again, and getting frustrated.
I'm really thinking about doing OTA, or maybe just trying Fresh's Beta ROM (GB) from the leak, then upgrading to the updated OTA one, once it is out.
What do you think about that?
Of course I would wipe everything before the ROM flash to avoid complications.
Thanks for your help
Go on xda or get the app there is already a rooted version of the ota if thats what your looking for there are way more ROMs on that site then on ROM manager .

I'm currently dl Ginger-AleV4 to try it out, I prefer Fresh because that's all I've had, and many ppl swear by it. If anything a temporary fix would be good until Fresh comes out with it.
Yeah, I'm on XDA looking around since like 4 hours ago, and studying for an exam I have tomorrow
Thanks for your help
Funny, I have the same issue. I'm rooted and was running Warm 2.2, upgraded to Synergy and was running great for 4-5 days on the nightly roms. 4G would connect then disconnect right away so I ran Calkulin's radio zip and upgraded all of them, 4G works!!! This was on Monday. Wednesday night phone was on my lap watching TV and it got real warm, I looked at it and I was at 15%, started at 63% when I sat down 25 minutes ago. I run Battery monitor pro and before I had this problem the mHa would sit around 100-200 depending on what was being done, not I can't get it below 400mHa. Even after I flashed the radios it was working fine for 2 days, then all of a sudden it's warm and my batter won't last, no other programs were installed.
I'm on mikg v1.03 and everything is working awesome for me.

I noticed the same battery draining issues. I think it was after the GB radio flash and not before.
I then checked some stuff and saw data in background running as well as Sync.
These were disabled before the flash but seemed to get enabled again.
Draining issue seems to have resolved itself. But I will keep an eye on it to make sure.

I notice the extreme heat on it too. It really sux. I went from having awesome battery life since Sept '10 on Fresh, and went to losing full charge in 4 hrs using my phone as a paper weight after the radio flash.

I actually just finished downloading it, and just waiting for my phone to get a charge so I can start wiping, and flashing.
How is it in battery life, smoothness, wifi, and all other things?
Also, I don't need to flash a separate kernel right?
I'd rather not, and usually ONLY flash ROMs.
Thanks Guys

I think it might be running the GB Radios, yet not running GB ROMs.
I'm taking the plunge into Miks ROM and see if it works.

The battery is pretty good for a stock kernel I get about 9 hours of heavy use and everything is running smooth for me make sure you wipe everything and you should be good.
And no you don't need to flash a kernel it come with the right one its stock till they release the source code for it then the dev can give us some sbc, havs etc...

Just installed mikg v1.03 after a good wipe and it's still getting warm and draining fast. Only have Batter monitor pro installed and 2 hours after install it's using ~600ma. I'll let it sit over night and see how it does. If that doesn't work I'm gonna download the other radios and see what works best.
Any last recommendations before I unroot and flash back to stock? I tried all different radios last night with no success, I have never seen this before in on this phone and I have been flashing for over 8 months with it, I'm starting to think it's a hardware issue as it happend all of a sudden.

It's freaking Awesome man, looks Wise its WOW. Pretty Smooth, and Best of All, My Battery Problems are GONE. Yes, GONE.
I'll stick with this kernel, and No themes for now, the Sense is enough for my taste at the moment. Including the on off tv animation
Question though, I've been getting FCs on my Voicemail and some Google process (forgot to wirte it down). Do you know anything about that by any chance?
Thanks

For the fc you can try wiping cache and dalvik cache and fix permissions for the permissions I use ra recovery its under other its called fix uid mismatch or something like that.
Hope that helps you.

I've never used Amon RA, but I guess I'll finally have to do the switch.
Can I get the Alternate Recover Amon RA that is on ROM Manager?
I've never wiped Davlik or cache when Im not doing a wipe, does it have any
negatives to doing that since Im not doing anything else? (very noobish Q, I know)

Yes you can flash ra from ROM manager thats what I did I was just like you at one point dependent on rm but get the xda app and learn how to use it you will love this site.
And no wiping cache and dalvik cache won't hurt anything you can do this over and over with no problems and you would be surprised what that can fix also fixing permissions .
You will learn downloading ROMs from this site and flashing from ra recovery will give you better results just read the ROM install instruction and you will good to go.
I also have VR supper wipe zip. Thats what I flash before I install a new ROM and I never have any problems I'll try to find you a link if you want it .
If you ever need help PM me I'm not a dev but I'm on here allot and have flashed allot of ROMs and mods I try to give back to xda by helping PPL out .
I hope I helped you in some way.

My phone has been acting really weird. Throughout the day, I will check my phone and see the time. I am using Fancy Widget Pro and for some reason, after a while, the time on the widget and system no longer match. It's about a 5 to 15 minute difference. It really depends. I was also using setCPU and when I would charge it and the take out the charger, SetCPU would not change back to the profile that I made. Another problem I have noticed is when I plug the USB-microUSB from the computer to the phone, when I finish and take the cord out, the computer knows it's gone, but my phone still thinks it is there. The only other problem I can think of, which is the biggest, is I don't think I am receiving text messages. I sent a couple to myself, and never got them. The only way that I know to fix this problem is to restart my phone, but I never get those texts back. Any help would be awesome. I have already tried Odin and going back to a different stock ROM. I have also done countless factory resets. I have no clue what is going on. If you need anymore info on what I am running or anything, just let me know. Once again, any help would be awesome.
P.S. I am on EH06, deodexed and pre-rooted. I also flashed maddoggin's lockscreen mod. I don't know if that helps, but I might as well put it there.
Thank you.

Well, i guess if you were freezing programs, maybe something got frozen that was related to updating. The USB issue i have had in the past, and that has always been fixed by a reflash for me. The time not updating, I have had that as well, and for me it was related to Juice Defender and my data settings. I am not sure how much flashing you do, but I have noticed that if I have flashed a few ROMS/Themes/Kernels, over the course of a few days (especially going back and forth from Froyo to GB) I will start getting all kinds of weird issues happening. Usually when that happens, I will back up my SD card, wipe it and reformat it, Odin back to stock EC05, and start the whole process over again with re-rooting. Sorry if this was not much help. Just trying to give my experience, albeit limited!

No, I appreciate it. I have been flashing a lot lately. I have never re-formatted my SD card, but I am sure I could figure out how to do that. I was thinking it was the ROM I had, but then I flashed a different ROM and it still did it. I will go about reformatting my SD card and let you know how that goes. Thanks for the info man.

Hey, no problem. To reformat the SD card, what I have done, is just copy the whole card to me PC, then go into CWM and there is formatting options in the mount and storage section if i remember correctly. then, i will just copy back the apk's and pics, music, etc...
I have 2 questions.
1) When you reformat your SD card, did that solve your problems?
2) I went into task manager and didn't see L1 or L2 RAM. Where do I look?

1) fixes some problems, definitely increased stability, if you do a lot of deleting, adding, moving, etc..
2) in task manager click on the RAM manger tab. But seeing as Android managers memory on its own, clearing L1 and L2 RAM is useless and only causes problems (sending and receiving texts) in my opinion.

I am formatting as we speak.
Do you know what aspect of a fragmented sd card wld cause those issues. I've had the clock issue using fancy widgets and cldnt find the cause. Is that something than can be rectified without formatting my card. Where and what are diff roms putting on the external sd card besides the android secure folder. Sorry I'm pretty ignorant re: flash media fragmentation. Doesn't make sense to me brains.

I recently installed the new RunnyRom 6.0 ROM, so it is my current ROM. With the previous version, at random intervals, my phone would either freeze after doing some simple task such as turning on the mobile network or just at random. At other times, the phone would not respond after the screen goes blank.
I am at my wits end and might end up throwing my phone at a wall. I've tried increasing the minimum CPU speed to no avail and other remedies from googling.
Must I buy a new phone? (my warranty is up btw, so I can't send it away back to HTC or the store I bought it from)
Before you say you are at your wits end, have you even tried flashing an entirely different rom to see if the issue presents itself again?
via xda app
Or a faster sd-card !
do you have ext on your sdcard and some kind of app2ext script?
Something like this?
It's a combination of sd card, sd-ext scripts running on it and bad reception. For me, the only ROM that doesn't have this problem is RSK v6.

I will try to switch back to CM7/Oxygen and see if the problems persist with the same frequency.
Go back to CM7 than Oxygen to test. Oxygen uses a script if an ext partition is detected. You wanna try and see if your phone will work well without any ext partition and CM7 doesn't support it out of the box.
Or if you can't help not having ext partition because of your apps, how about you format your sd card, repartition and start fresh.
via xda app
So as I did a full wipe and reinstalled CM7, lo and behold, the phone freezes on me in the 4ext recovery screen. Wiped again and tried to reinstall RunnyRom, same thing.
Seems like hardware issue if you get freezes even on recovery. You can flash a stock rom as a last verification but since you don't have warranty you might as well consider it as a reason to get a new phone.
There's the HTC One series or if you can still wait a bit longer, Galaxy S III is about to make a debut this May.

I think I will need to settle for something a bit cheaper.
However, I have noticed that if my mobile network is on, most times it will freeze my phone if I use any app that uses internet such as Whatsapp, facebook or Google+. Not sure if that might be relevant. (I am on a CM7 ROM and it still freezes so it is most definitely a hardware problem I would agree with).
I had a similar problem with my HTC Desire. I was on the road a lot and noticed that when I came near certain areas, my phone froze. I think it was because of a bad radio or something like this.
Does it happen when you are in airplane mode?
I flashed the new CM9 and the problem stopped.
Alternatively, it didn't happen with the sandvold-ICS.
Have you tried flashing with a new SD-Card?

Never tried it with airplane mode on. There's less freezing with MildWild 4.4 but occasionally it will freeze.
I had this issue once with ics and drewis kernel, on tiamat no problems at all
From using Mildwild 4.4 I've realized that when my phone rings, the ringtone will not play and if I answer it as soon as the call ends the screen will not wake up. If I ignore the call and open any application, the phone will freeze. In both cases I will need to remove the battery.
Sometime fixing permissions from recovery sorts out freezing issues

Tried that too. No major change.
same exact problem, i'm running runnymede AIO, phone freezes often, especially when i'm at home where signal is not good.
i've got the feeling is mainly related to whatsapp, but it's just a feeling.
phone usually freezes when i wake it up from standby, the lockscreen ring does not respond.
it never freezes when in airplane mode.
i think i'll try a different phone part, then a different rom, it's a pity since this one performs really well for my needs.
sorry for my english, if i fix this i'll post here, cheers.

i've got the feeling is mainly related to whatsapp, but it's just a feeling.
phone usually freezes when i wake it up from standby, the lockscreen ring does not respond.
it never freezes when in airplane mode.
i think i'll try a different phone part, then a different rom, it's a pity since this one performs really well for my needs.
sorry for my english, if i fix this i'll post here, cheers.

I think my problem was mainly the sd card as it deleted all of my photos and then randomly stopped reading in my phone.
I switched sd cards and ROMs and so far no freezes.

Hey all good morning, what a messed up way to start the morning. So I was on my phone paying some bills, reading some manga when it powered off on me, I thought this was the known random reboot you get when flashing CM10 sometimes so I paid it no mind, however the phone has still not turned back on. I've done battery pulls, tried to boot into recovery or download and nothing is working it's just dead. I definitely didn't do anything this morning, flashed no roms nada and it had full charge shoot it was plugged in to my work computer when it happened. Someone, anyone please help me, I have the toolkit on this computer and can download anything all I need is instruction. Please help and also I've wanted the CM10 rom because I like it but it doesn't seem ready to be my daily driver as I'm having issues and have flashed different versions with it seeming to get worst while getting better. What does anyone recommend for a safe daily driver, stable, no reboots, crashes and still can be played with like CM10 for features somewhat?

I've been using ths 08/14 CM10 rom on a full wipe without much issues, but have come accross your issue on an old CM9 build last month.
For me to get the phone to boot, I removed the battery and powered it on by AC only, and then poped in the battery, and haven't had issues since.
Do you do any overclocking or undervolting? You say CM10, what release? What kernel?
Hopefully we can get your phone working once more

Thanks for the support, I'm not sure what happened but I just saw the samsung logo and it's booted up, so now it's up and running but that kinda scared me lol. I know what you mean jellybro hasn't given me much problem before which is why I've picked it over others but this now scares me lol especially since I actually formatted my phone last friday and had to start from scratch, so was worried it was a repeat without me doing anything lol. I'm using the 20120813 release and the kernel that comes with it, I haven't played with kernels at all, is there a kernel I should look at? And I don't overclock per say I may switch the cpu performance to "performance" from time to time but that's it and no undervolting I try not to play with things I don't understand too much lol
I'd recommend you to hop on the new 08-14 official CM10, now that cm9 is released, i would imagine seeing many more frequent updates from Cyanogen himself.
I was using Jellybro and got random crashes, but so far no issues with 0814 cm10. Just do a full wipe, dalvik wipes and dirty flash cause more issues than its worth, especially with Titanium Backup you do a one click restore, and get a sms backup tool. Simple clean switch. Just make sure not to copy system data with TI, which would give you the same results as a dirty flash.

I need some help guys. I received the OTA update from Sprint with my stock firmware and it totally made my phone unusable. It keeps freezing and then rebooting. I have tried everything i can think of but nothing helps.
I did i full factory reset about 3 times. 2x with the zerolemon battery i was using for the last 2 years. Then another factory reset using the stock battery that came with the phone, which didn't get used more than about 5 recharge cycles before I replaced it with the zerolemon one.
After that I thought i could undo the patch but as you guys know the QI5 firmware is not backward compatible so am i kind of screwed? I have tried rooting and loading a custom rom, the CMDMOTO is the only one I tried since it seemed to work for others using the Qi5, but i still have the same issue.
I am a bit new to the rooting world but i have been reading up to figure out my problem, any suggestions? I have TWRP, super user and titanium backup.
Thanks
Work around FOUND !
Installing the app 'Wake Lock' and using level 4 'PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK' seems to have made everything better. I will keep this thread updated if something else happens. I guess for some reason the last patch changed something that made the cpu go inactive or sleep much more frequently or something like that.
If anyone knows how to correct this let me know. It seems that this was actually a very common problem with the other variants of the note 4 it just took a while to get to this version. I wonder if anyone else was having this issue with the N910P.
Cheers
Have you tried booting to recovery and wiping the cache partition? If it falls asleep and freezes that points to a kernel issue if I'm not mistaken. Wiping cache will NOT delete any of your data. Hold Volume Up, Home, and power til the phone turns on and you see some yellow/blue/red text in the upper left corner then release. Try wiping cache and see if it helps

When I did the factory wipe from the 3rd time onward I always wiped the cache and all other options that were available. As long as i keep the wakelock app active the phone does not freeze up and/or shut down but it is draining my battery pretty fast. I am thinking it has something to do with the phone going to deep sleep and unable to come out of it properly. I am playing around with 'Kernel Auditor ' to see if i can find a setting that will fix this issue. I am almost convinced it has something to do with the cpu clock states and Deep sleep not working correctly anymore.
I personally am a fan of 3c Toolbox for most of my diagnostic needs. Theres a free version available, check under the cpu manager tab for whatever info is relevant to you. Example..it will tell you live cpu frequencies/load, live power usage, wakelocks, all sorts of goodies
Have you tried to ODIN a factory .tar image?
sammobile dot com has the QI5 image. Just make sure tou grab the sprint one and not the unknown carrier version.

Thank you so much for posting this work around! My Wife's Note 4 has been working great for over a year, she bought it used. Then a few weeks ago a bunch of updates were pushed to it and it just started to act up.
I narrowed it down to always occurring after the phone was idle for more then an hour or so and started to look for a clue if this may be a known issue so your work around makes a lot of sense.
It does appear to be an issue with Googles 6.0.1 OS version since my BlackBerry Key 1 also received a bunch of updates but its fine.
