Just installed this great rom. Definitely much snappier. Only issue I have is that the wifi does not go to sleep. Anyone else having the same issue.
Never mind. It was an app that kept the wifi on.

my dear friend can you please answer mw which was this program because im having this problem with all the latest nightlies and the 1.0.0.it has a wifi depp sleep issue and after many hous is frozen and i must rebooted with vol up+power button..i asked everybody about this problem but nobody till now told me what is going on..thanks in advance!greetings from greece..
I also have the same problem. Wifi never sleep and no apps or services are running.
This happens to everyone. Battery stats say wifi never sleeps, but it does turn off..although it seems it takes longer than on HC.
Battery life is same/better. It also goes to deep sleep.
I have not had this except when the nightlys got unstable.
did anyone try reverting back to complete factory stock (pushing factory images) and then putting eos on?
I bring this up because I got some crud lock in that factory reset and cach wipes would not clear. afterwards doing the above all was well.
also some live wallpapers and widets can be problematic.
I personally keep a unrooted untouch factory backup around to be able to start from scratch.
the eos 1.0 is rock solid for me except for a few browser crashes. I'm [email protected]

I am getting random reboots and I am unable to figure out what is causing the problem and I have not found any thread about random reboots with the Captivate.

Provide us with more information. Is your phone rooted, on a custom ROM maybe, what have you been doing to your phone, when did this start happening, etc.
History
I started with stock, rooted, non-market apps, unhelpful kernel v1.2, removed AT&T bloatware. LCD density @ 180. Tried One Click Lag Fix v1.0 and v2.2 and uninstalled. Juice Defender to manage 3G. Juice Plotter to track battery.
After messing around with it, I encountered a reset of the default launcher selection each time I long pressed the home button to bring up the recently used programs. I then did a hard reset and that fixed that problem. After the hard reset, my Captivate ran great! I found it responsive and fast enough without the need to try and apply any lagfix.
I then reinstalled my selected applications. My phone started to randomly reboot about once a day. I noticed Juice Plotter's data would be lost and it had to rebuild. It also happened to reboot on me once while I was using it. Other than that, it has not really affected my usability.
If it hasn't affected your usability, do you want to fix it?
If you do want to fix it, then the best way is to restore to Stock and add things slowly until you determine the problem. If you return to Stock and it still reboots, then you have a hardware issue.
It doesn't "quite" affect usability but it is not working "normally" either.
Was hoping to see if anyone else have experienced random reboots and how to troubleshoot it. If not, I will try out Odin one-click flash to stock...
I've been having a weird issue for the past few weeks where my phone will lock up and the screen won't turn on anymore. Often, it happens with the phone in standby in my pocket. I'll feel a vibration (sometimes just 1 vibration, sometimes followed by the usual 3 fast vibrations of a force close) and then the phone is gone. I have to hold all 3 buttons to reset it and then it boots up fine like nothing is wrong. I've had this same issue on various roms I've used lately (Serendipity, Firefly, Cog4, etc.) and on my last flash I've even done the full flash to stock and master clear. Is anyone else having any issues like this?
I'm guessing this is 1 of 3 things:
1) I have a hardware problem with my phone and need a new one.
2) This is an issue with custom kernels with lagfix and I have to live with it or use a stock kernel. I know some custom kernels have had charging death issues (I've seen that happen to me also but idk if its from charging or the same thing as when its in my pocket)
3) Some app I installed is causing this. I have a hard time believing this can be the problem only because any app issues I've seen in the past just show up as a FC and don't take out the entire phone. If this is in fact an app issue, IDK how I'll ever figure out which one is causing it since it just dies and I don't get a chance to see a FC message or anything like that.
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated as I really don't know what to do at this point. My next step is probably going to run pure stock froyo for a few days to see if I still have the issue but I suspect I will since its been present on every rom config I've used. Whats even worse is, if it happens and I don't notice for a while, when I finally reboot it the battery is severely drained. Its like something gets in an infinite loop and kills the battery depending on how long I leave it like that (the phone also warms up when its been in this state for a while).
Thanks in advance for any help!
Sounds like a warranty replavement to me.
Caution swyping! Read at your own risk.

What kernel are you running? And are you OC/UV?
If so, try a different kernel (like speedmod k13e) that doesn't have OC/UV option. Black screen is usually a UV setting problem.
If it's not the case, warranty?
EDIT: Have you flashed over different ROM with lagfix/ OC/UV enabled?
Right now I'm running lastest Cog 4 with the included kernel (which doesn't support UV). I was OC but once I had this issue I reset the clocks to stock but then it happened again. Before I installed Cog 4 I flashed stock and master cleared...
1. Did u restore any data using TiBu when u flashed the ROM? Did u happen to restore any system data?
2. Did u put on any kind of under volting?
Flash any ROM, say Firefly, and use it for a day or two without restoring any of ur apps, and see if the issue is coming up again.
If yes, try changing kernel, say to onix, and keep on for a day or two see if the issue is recurring.
Just to be sure, can u do this:
1. Revert to stock
2. Format internal SD (similar to master clear to clear out SD card; I never did a master clear so far, only this)
3. Copy the ROM u want to use to SD
4. Flash Firefly 3.0 (this formats all system partitions, so no need to master clear)
Firefly has hardcore's kernel by default, and this kernel does not apply lagfix by default. Same with onix kernel too, and this is the reason I am recommending this combination of ROM and kernels. I use onix cos I have some wifi issues on hardcore's kernel.
5. Do NOT restore of ur data or apps
I did restore data using TiBu but only app data. The only system stuff I restored was bluetooth pairings and wifi access points. Other than that only app data. I don't have any UV right now...

I would NOT recommend ANY system data, except for contacts storage. This is the only one system data I personally found not to cause any issues.
Its easier to connect BT and wifi again, than go through the pain restoring this data sometimes creates. I faced issues with my phone not being paired to my car when I tried to restore bluetooth settings. It shows my car, but doesn't pair. I had to restart phone, delete the connection, and then reconnect. I found it easier to add back, than restore and go through all this trouble.
This time, pls try to refrain from restoring any of ur data from TiBu and a day's run for the ROM and see how it goes. If it goes well, u can restore data. But, before u restore data, I would recommend taking a nandroid backup just in case restoring apps starts creating issues again. This could save some time by getting u back to current state with no apps, instead of flashing all over again.
Before doing any of those things, I would check out your IMEI number and compare it to the one in this link,

I dont pay for any warranty through AT&T, but I brought my phone in to a device replacement center and they replaced mine with a brand new phone!
Its worth a shot if you ask me.
One day my skyrocket started acting up. I have the AT&T version. what happens is The wifi could be working perfectly fine then when i let it sleep and then wake it the wifi is on and sometimes turns right back on and connects and other times it won't turn on, even when I try to manually. I've tried going back to pure stock, ICS Stock, and tried custom roms and it's all the same. Sometimes on first boot the wifi won't even turn on. Then sometimes when I'm out of wifi Range I turn it off and when I come back and try to switch it on it says "Wifi turning on.." then the toggle goes back to off but it still says that. Sometimes when the phone is in use, screen on, I could be browsing the web or on facebook and it shuts off and won't come back on. This has nothing to do with the Power Saving mode, I never touched that setting and I checked and it's set to "Always." So what could it be? It gets extremely frustrating. someone please help me :l
I searched the forums before I posted, I know this may fall into the development category but I couldn't post there..

when you say pure stock, do you mean you odin'ed back to stock? i'm no expert but if you've had the same issues on pure stock rom, custom roms it sounds as though it may be a hardware issue.

Well yes odin'd back, & also used kies through download/recovery mode. well the custom roms it does it on are all stock based... well I had installed MIUI but idk If it had done it on there. this issue is very frustrating..
i realized last night that the bluetooth does it too, so if it's a hardware problem does that mean the motherboard could be bad, not the actual components?
Just putting this out there for anyone who may be having the same issue as a possible fix for them.
The wifes sgs3 would not go into deep sleep mode. as a result the battery was under constant drain.
her phone is set up pretty much like mine is and i wasn't having the issue and I couldn't seem to figure it out.
i did a clean flash but still the same problem. (wiped everything, even data)
I've been looking at BBS and wake lock detector for days but nothing was coming to mind, everything looked as it should.
i started removing apps, till there was nothing. still. same issue. tried different kernels. etc. still same issue.
I was about to move on to another rom (beans 18) to see if that would help. and i decided just for giggles to reflash the modem.
and what do you know upon reboot the phone started going into deep sleep mode.
I think i was running MF1 Modem and Bootchain with Mb1 TZ on her phone. but can't say for sure.
i downloaded the latest (d2vzw_VRBMF1_firmware) and flashed it. couldn't believe that is what the issue was.
anyways, if someone runs into the same issue. try flashing the latest modems or perhaps a previous and see if that helps.
Hi everyone, recently I had some troubles with my Galaxy S6 ...
The problem is that the phone gets really hot even when I'm not using it and when and the system in general in really really slow... So, I decided to install BetterBatteryStats in order to better understand if any Kernel Wakelock was causing the problem and YES !
There's a so called "flip wake lock" that is active almost anytime and when it does stop (it stops automatically sometimes) the phone comes back to life, fast and smooth.
So, I was wondering if any of you has ever heard of this wakelock... I , of course , already searched in Google but pretty much no one knows what this is about...
Also, I had to manually disable the softkeys because the were constantly fading in and out.
The touchscreen is fine because when I'm in recovery mode everything is smooth as butter and YES, I have already tried a wipe data, I changed rom, I did format all my data and went back to a stock rom, I changed Android Version but nothing seemed to work.
Thanks in advance for your help, have a lovely night.

I would advice a full wipe and re-flash Stock Firmware via Odin.
If a magnetic case is installed, remove it and see if the wakelock persists. If there are magnets around the phone, remove those and see if the wakelock persists. Also worth checking is the 'USSD' code hwmoduletest *#0*#, select hall. If the problem persists try to disable the hall sensor in the kernel.
