Weird Stutter/Lag on lolipop - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay so, first off, I'm not much of a noob in flashing ROMS and tools, I've had a bit of experience with a Samsung Infuse before, now I got this Note 2 and TouchWiz pissed me off, of course, now I need a lolipop ROM, I used ODIN to root and install TWRP recovery, also flashed a 5.1.1 "RESSURECTION" ROM, tried CM12 too, now the thing is, I'm getting a weird lag, this lag occurs randomly, lasts 2-3 seconds, followed up with a weird vibration, yes the vibrator vibrates the fone whenever this lag occurs... Now I tried a lot of stuff, except unlocking the bootloader because I'm not sure if it'll fix it or not, also after a while I noticed that it didn't detect my SIM card, could it be that my phone is refurbished? Everything else works ok but the lag makes it unusable.. The lag occurs on both CM12 and the other ROM so I don't think it's because of the ROM.. I'll revert to stock Kitkat using ODIN, but I really need to fix this. I tried Google for solutions but I can't seem to find anyone else having the same problem... So please help me out here mates

[Q] My DHD keeps crashing and rebooting, but only when the screen is locked...

Hello!
For some time now my phone's been rebooting itself completely random it seems. I just got it back after sending it away to get this issue fixed. Obviously the "repair" didn't really do anything at all. All they did was to flash the latest software apparently.
I got quite fed up with the crashing and rebooting stuff, and figured that it wouldn't hurt to try to flash a custom ROM, in this case I chose to root the phone and try MiUi. I had no clue wether it would solve the issue I'm having, but I figured it was worth a try. So i rooted the phone and flashed the latest version of MiUi (1.11.18).
At the start it seemed like it had worked, and had stopped the phone from crashing. But after some time I realized that the issue is still there, only difference now is that it ONLY crashes when I lock the screen with the Power-button. EVERY SINGLE TIME I do this, in a matter of minutes it will either reboot or just turn black and totally unresponsive. Only way to get it on again is to take out the battery and put it back in.
This is starting to annoy the **** out of me, so I talked to my brother for advise this morning, and he told me to wipe my Dalvik Cache. So I did, and nothing changed, the phone keeps on living it's own life.
I have absolutely no clue what info you guys might need to help me with this, but I'll start with this:
Phone: HTC Desire HD
Android-version: 2.3.7
Kernel-version: 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod-g319b6e2
ROM: MiUi 1.11.18
Also, the motherboard's been switched once, cause of another issue that is now gone.
ANY help is appreciated, I just want to be able to use the phone normally!
EDIT: Also it seems that the phone won't reboot or crash whenever it's charging.
Sounds like a hardware/software issue your best bet is getting a replacement and re rooting .

[Q] Problem with 4.4.2 and MJ5

Hello guys,
I have some issues while using the latest 4.4.2 DN3 ROMs. Before installing DN3 4.2 I flashed MJ5 bootloader, and it was running for a couple of weeks fine, then the phone started to freeze and reboot several times a day. I thought DN3 v5+ would fix these freezes and reboots but it was no good. I was really disappointed, as I really liked the look and feel of DN3. Now I'm using Revolution HD 31, it's stable (more or less, a couple of freezes and reboots for two weeks) and fast, but I really liked the looks of the latest DN3...
So the question is - what can I do to avoid these freezes and reboots and will upgrading the bootloader to a newer one will help me?
I don't think bootloader has anything to do with it. I was on MJ5 with 4.3 creikelo and NEVER had a reboot or force close. DN3 just freezes after 1-3 days. I had the same experience. It started getting laggy, or better said, the CPU was doing something, hence the lag, and then it just restarted by itself. And I did clean install. It is enough to reat the DN3 topic and see how many people have problems with it - and most still consider it the best ROM... I just went away to another ROM, and will post results in a week hope it doesn't behave the same as DN3
Thanks for the reply!
What ROM did you install? Is it stable?
I had a problem with mj5, my phone froze on the boot and i had to reinstall the ROM.
I think mj5 is for 4.4.2 ROMs, is a older bootloader.

I tried JellyKat 6.7, but seems I have same issue... at first it was getting high CPU usage after a day or two, then phone became so overloaded it reacted to nothing and I had to pull battery out. Then all of a sudden I started getting SOFT reboots (that means only from the point of boot animation, no samsung screen) and I installed Xposed module Samsung Crash Fix and will see if it helps... I dunno, I am begining to believe there's something wrong with all 4.4.2 ROMs Because I never ever had FC, crash or reboot with 4.3 Criskelo....

[Q] Phone freezes when not awake (stock and custom rom)

Hi,
since a few weeks i've got a big problem, my phone freezes to the point where I have to hold the power button to restart it. this started happening when I was on Jellykat v6.7 but still persists after flashing stock rom.
Info:
Flashed latest bootloader
Problem persists on Jellykat and stock, with multiple and stock kernel.
Problem does not occur when running spotify in the background.
Right now I'm running stock rom (4.4.2 from sammy, flashed via odin) with stock kernel and latest bootloader.
When I restart it and check my battery stats I can see my wifi was still working when my phone did not respond, thus the device was on and I was recieving messages while the decive was not awake.
Weird thing is that it works properly when I let spotify play in the background, meaning it doesn't go into deep sleep (I think).:silly:
Right now my device works fine, but only because I have spotify playing the background 24/7 which isn't ideal in terms of battery life and such.
Any thoughts on it?
Thanks in advance!
Still no one? I guess i'll have to survive till I get the note 4 :silly:
Same here
Same thing happened to me when I was on stock rom.. sometimes it froze sometimes it didn't.. (Without spotify)...
Now changed to custom rom... havent faced such issues since then (last one month..not much)

[Q] S4 mini rebooting very often!

Hi all!
First of all thanks for your work..it's awesome!!thanks to you i enjoyed my s plus until some days ago it has broken..very sad day
However i decided to move on with a more modern cel, so i decided for a s4 mini.
But since the beginning i've had lot of problems..
My phone after an original update from samsung started to freeze and reboot..more and more often..i read it could be an issue with original update so i decided to mod my phone since i've had great improvements with my old s plus..
first i installed cm11 but the phone keep rebooting and rebooting ..so i installed cm12 with android l..but the problem is still here!!
the more my phone became hot the more it reboot..it's unusable and i don't know what to do..i'm also begin to doubt it's a hw problem
my warranty is gone with all this mods..so what to do? any others has this kind of problem?
thanks if yo want to answer
People encountering this should perform a factory reset and wipe everything from the phone.
Then, perform a clean install of whichever rom you wish to use, without any additional apps.
I recently encountered an issue with Apex Launcher and a recent update. Android keep crashing and soft rebooting often.. only after a few days did I realise the launcher was the issue. Since I uninstalled the app the phone hasnt restarted once!
Mine restarts after i turn on Mobile Data + GPS for navigation..
It works for a minute and restarts.
I don't know where the problem is either. I tried to flash cm10, 11.. stock 4.2 / 4.4 and nothing seems to get me rid of the problem

[Q] No IMEI and Baseband and also a weird stutter on Lollipop

Hey there.
Okay so, I rooted and installed TWRP using Odin on my Note2, and of course, I tried CM12, and also a lot of lollipop ROMS. I'm not much of a noob so I guess I didn't miss anything important, clearing cache, factory reset, did all of it, now the thing is.. I get this weird lag/stutter kinda thing that happens randomly followed up with a vibration, I noticed things like, no IMEI and baseband, so I followed a friends advice who had a similar problem on his G2, he fixed it by backing up EFS from a working stock ROM and restored it into the custom Lollipop OS, this worked for him, now I tried the same thing, but it doesn't seem to help, also I noticed that the "vibration intensity" setting is blank, just like IMEI and baseband. Whenever I put the phone in PowerSave mode from the "RESSURECTION ROM" which disables all sorts of vibrations, the stutter/lag disappears.. It only happens when vibrations are enabled on balanced or performance mode. Now I really wanna know how to fix this so I can use Android 5.0 on my Note2. Thanks in advance
