Phone keeps turning off/freezing - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Running .42 kernel on ICS ROM, keeps just going completely black when idle in my pocket and have to take the battery pack out to restart. I think it's the CPU Master settings...?

What are you running if anything for screen off profile.
This is called sod
Screen off death.
Some experience it on some kernels others don't

Correct you need to use a different kernel.

[Q] Phone freezes and requires battery pull

Everything was fine for awhile...I used to flash many roms and never had this issue. I thought it might have been one rom but then realized that it happened with a few roms...didn't matter which one I flashed. The screen will freeze or the phone will freeze while charging and I need to do a battery pull to get it up again. Does anyone have any clue why this is suddenly happing to me?

Hmmm. Are you overclocked? If so, you may want to dial it back a notch.
You could try a fresh flash and wipe as well.

No I am not overclocked. Happened using Synergy and Gingeritis when it wasn't happening before. I had no issues doing normal setting in speedtweak.sh with interactivex but now even with that it's happening.

these "hard locks" seem to be related mostly to the GB roms. either the kernel or radio is giving issues. i dont remember having this issue on froyo. I am using the latest synergy nightlys and i can't remember the last time i had one of those hard locks. been a while. am using ziggys kernel and mr2 radio.

Unresponsive parts of screen?

My phone sometime the lower portion becomes unresponsive and sometimes when in an app I can no longer scroll down it only allows scrolling left and right: even in apps like Gmail.
I'm using stock ROM, I'm tested the issue with several kernels but no result. The problem gods away when I lock the screen and unlock I again.

I have the exact same problem. Been trying different ROM:s and it's the same on everyone. I believe it's a hardware problem.

Yeah, how do I manage it?
Flash a different kernel. Glados, Matrix, Franco or stock.
Is this issue confirmed on everyone's device? I feel like calling up Samsung if it is indeed a hardware issue.
Anyone else confirm your screen gets erroneous and unresponsive on certain kernels?

Same issue while on stock GB and ICS, stock kernel. Problem goes away when screen is locked.
On average it bugs me a few times a week when I'm typing. Might have happened many more times, but as locking the screen clears the problem away, it could have gone undetected.
Weird never experienced on my nexus s i've tried GB .. ICS and a whole bunch of ROM+ KERNEL combination my screen works perfect maybe it's only affecting a particular bunch of hand sets .. idk? :/
it happens to me every now and then, usually while typing. generally i have to turn it off completely to fix it, which really sucks.
GB 2.3.7 and whatever the last GB matrix kernal. nothing running over or under.
Ya I have the same issue but for be it only happens when I plug in a USB or auxiliary cable ..oddly not my headphones (klipsch s4)
I've been debating calling into Samsung but haven't had time! Has anyone had luck!?
Edit: I'm running stock 2.3.6 i9020a

That's gonna happen while using the phone non stop, as for charging make a profile for when screen off/ while charging I do that and never have over heating issues... I also reboot the phone after I plug it in.

It seems like an error in the graphic drivers. I could come from a cold boot play a game til my phone gets warm then exit the game. After that the phone never cools down until after reboot. This has less to do about a charging profile and deals more with rouge code

I'm assuming that's the performance kernel, and of course it'll overheat (to about 108-115 for normal highs). You're overclocked and charging the battery will be more hot than usual, you don't need to have it clocked so high for something like that, try it at lower frequencies if you're charging.
Why dont you just drop your clock speeds down to 1200. It should still perform like a champ. Expect heat while charging, I am running the ICS Eagles Blood ROM. It happens to mine too, without O.C.
It still has major bugs but it is far smoother than the stock 2.3 lg release that sucks to date.
Really you don't need to OC that high though, and if you do you should consider doing some undervolting.
If you are over clocking to 1.4gz your phone WILL get much hotter.
This us because your CPU is running faster, and generates more heat.

Obviously, lower the CPU speed. This shouldn't have to be said.

It's not an overcloking issue. I had the same problem at 1.2ghz and my phone was set to drop to 800mhz max when the screen was off. If it was an overclocking it wouldn't happen only when the phone is asleep because most phones are setup to use very little of the cpu when they are inactive.

Or, you had an app/s that kept running in the background, thus keeping the CPU awake. No G2X kernels currently support deep sleep (which would basically shut down almost everything when the screen is off), so that's another possibility. I'm on stock and don't need more than 760mHz per core most of the time.

my g2x running cm7 and the stock kernel will overheat when plugged into the wall. this alone caused many screens of death and constant reboots for me. i tend to just pop off the battery door before plugging it in and no more issues.

it really is not but it helps overheating a bit.its not like We OC to 1.8 but 1.4 still unnecessary.
This a dual core even at stock voltage still overheats.I seen single core devices really overheat.Plus Our experiences with overclocking,overheating would be different because each hardware make act different even though it's same phone.Also different locations,humidity temperature that affects phone too.You try to oc to 1.8 in the UK and it won't overheat lol COLD.

Phone wakes up to frozen screen

I have been having this problem on this phone with all the custom roms. I tried different combinations of roms and kernels and still no luck. I'm on EB ics. The phone wakes up fine while the charger is connected but if it sleeps while on battery it wakes up to a stuck/frozen screen. I really dont know what is going on.

When you say stuck/frozen screen do you mean an image appears but is frozen or that the phone is frozen and won't show anything? The new EB rom has had some freezing issues when it's come to being used. Also the phone is know to have screen of death issues caused by overheating

Yeah it shows the lock screen but its frozen only the buttons glow. I dont think this is an overheating issue because it does this within minutes of booting up. I notice that when I have music playing it doesnt freeze when I wake it up.
Go into setting, applications, developement and click stay awake.

Try giving it more voltage (not all chips are made the same) or setting the minimum frequency to the next highest. 316 MHz on mine using Faux's kernel, but it depends on what you're using.

Why is my phone always hot???

My phone is literally hot all of the time. After about a minute of use it will become rather warm in my hand, no matter what ROM, kernel, or if I'm on JB or ICS. Oh and it didn't used to be this way. What's up guys? And suggestions to fix it?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Do you have a kernel that let's you OC if so the processor could be above 1.5ghz which would cause this. Try setcpu if you find it running higher

Our phone gets noticeably hotter than most phones because of the processing power. You gotta figure that our phones are running at a higher RPM than most others. Hot/warm is normal when you're actually using your phone. I recommend downloading an app like system tuner to check the actual degrees. I run about 120 F for a CPU temp when doing things on my phone which is normal. I've been told that a cpu temp of 150+ is when you need to worry and unplug and remove the battery etc to let it cool. Battery temps are normaly 109F and I've never seen mine go higher than that.
My first phone always got warm with minimal use. My replacement not so much.

Your phone may be defective, or you have a bad kernel, or maybe even an odd battery.
In any case, I suggest closing all background apps every couple of hours and maybe even undervolting your CPU when your screen is off to keep it cool.
It could be the rom... try clearing ram... or try underclocking the cpu

hey there, i happened to see there is a solution about hot phone issues, check it out http://forum.ksmobile.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=8&highlight=hot
I happen to be that problem and I observe it after a several flashing of Custom Rom and alll I notice is it depends on the Rom you flash and it's kernel or if you are on the stock rom, it supposed to be that your apps including background apps are drinking the juice of your battery. You can try Greenify to limit the background apps
