Currently the phone is on CM10, but this would happen on any rom. The phone is frozen with the bottom 4 touch buttons lit up. The only way to fix it is a battery pull and power the phone back on. Not sure what is causing this, but would like to know if anyone has found a fix for this issue yet. Thanks.
Its a known bug in CM10 and probably not a hardware problem. CM10 is still a beta (though a very good one) and quirks like this are expected.
Some versions of cm10 are more stable than others. Ive been using the 8 - 14 build and it has a minimal amount of freezing like this.

Thank god
My phone has the same issue, I thought it was H/W issue because I accidentaly dropped my phone very often. Glad to know it's just a rom bug, or I'll have to buy myself a new phone.
It was happening on stock ics also though. Did you guys see that on stock also?
Set your min cpu to 384Mhz, That fixed mine for sure.

Hello guys I was wondering if anybody else is having this problem, sometimes when I press the back key on my att nexus s it freezes for a couple of secs then it goes back to normal, it won't matter what I am doing it could be anything from visiting the marketplace to browsing the web its really annoying me a lot at this point.
If you know anyway how to fix this issue please let me know thanks.
I have the same problem, but it also happens with my menu and search keys. The individual backlight will dim and the phone freezes for 4-7 sec.

Not having this issue.

Is the phone freezing or is just the back key randomly not responding to touch? If its the latter, then you need to do an exchange. Common problem.
I used to have this issue but it eventually went away. It happened after they replaced my screen.
I used to have this and assumed it was a hardware thing, changing roms sorted it.
I have no idea why this is the case and when someone else said as much I thought it couldn't be the case but I'd suggest you flash a different ROM and see how you get on.
I have this problem also. Mine will go dark and exit out of anything I'm doing as if I was pressing it. Gets old sometimes

I started getting this about two months into the life of my Nexus. In the process of exchanging mine now in the hours that I get an unaffected unit.

My first one did this constantly so I exchanged it and so far so good with the new one.
Looks like a bad batch of ns4g's went out. Mine is doing this too. Not very ofter but enough that I notice it.

Actually it affects all Nexus S models. I think it is touch panel driver bug.

I have an MZ 601 (Asia/Europe Xoom 3G)
I've noticed that it SOD's (Sleep of Death) a lot.
This occurs on stock Rom 3.1
I've tried Tiamat, Launchpad Gemini.
None of the Custom Rom's fix this, and I have not yet been able to come up with steps to reproduce this error. At this Time it seems to be occurring randomly. When it does however it is very very annoying.
Sometimes I can fix it by holding the power button, the screen will suddenly turn on and ask me if Im sure that I want to power of the device.
Sometimes on that dialog if I hit cancel, the screen goes dark and it will appear that it is SOD again.
I know there are various reports on the forum of SODs happening and other people claiming that the Xoom is a GED device and hence does not have SOD issues.
But clearly looking at my device it is certainly prone to SOD issues.
What could I do to find the root cause of the problem?
Could it be a hardware issue? Or is it software?
Does anyone here have a definitive answer for this problem?
Install a stock kernel.

right on, And make sure you do not use an alternate launcher...
My Gtabs used to suffer from this a lot, some kernel where fixing the issue, and using only stock launcher where having the same effect...
As I mentioned in my post stock rom which has the stock kernel and stock launcher had SOD issues. Both 3.01 and 3.1.
At this time the launchpad Gemini 1.30 kernel reduces the occurrance of SOD a lot. As it happens a lot less now. But it still occurs.

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.

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

I know a ton of people are having issues with some of the more recent version of this FM but my problem is a little different. When I go to wake my screen it immediately shuts back off. I'm not sure what the cause might be but its quite frustrating considering it is the only issue I've encountered so far. This can happen multiple times in a row before it decides to finally stay on. Any ideas what might be the cause? I even wiped to make sure it wasn't an app but it still persists. If it helps at all I am on CM version 10-20120815-UNOFFICIAL-ville. If you guys need any other info I'd be more than happy to provide it.

You should consider flashing the latest nightly and see if the problem still occurs. I am running the latest nightly as my daily driver and have no problems at all beside minor wakelocks
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
Whoa yeah agree with above post. You're on a build that is over a month old and isn't even an official release. Download the newest build from here http://get.cm/?device=ville . You should be able to flash right over your existing rom without losing data, just wipe cache and dalvik cache after you flash. There are many, many improvements since the build you are currently running.
Thanks for the tip guys. I downloaded the latest ROM to my phone some reason I still have the same issue. I'm not really sure what's going on now I did a wipe but that didn't seem to help last time. You guys think an app caused this or is it hardware? I recall something similar happening back on my old phone when I used to mess with the processor speed.

I've been dealing with random reboots now for a long time. With all this "stable" talk for JB roms I'm starting to wonder if it is just my phone.
I have ran many roms:
Slim Bean
All paranoid aspects of JB
CM10
sky JB
brickbeatz
Every single one the same. Multiple reboots or SOD's everyday at least 2 or 3. And if I'm using the phone extensively this amount could double maybe even triple. Is this normal? Is this something that other people are experiencing?
I have followed all install instructions including changing recoveries if requested by the install (big fan of TWRP but a lot of roms swear by sk8t's CWM)
I have odin'd back to uclf6 took the ota - formatted internal and external SD and is still happening no matter what rom I use.
When I was on ICS for a little I dig get a notification from time to time saying something to the extent of "battery disconnected" or "battery temp too high" and this is what made me start thinking that maybe this is a phone issue.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this? This is my second Skyrocket. First was replaced by warranty because it started just rebooting consistently (may have been a stuck button, but I didn't worry about it).
Any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. I do search, and I have tried pretty much everything I have found. Now I'm just frustrated looking for help.
Reboots are not normal with any of the roms you've tried. I've tried a number of roms and haven't experienced any reboots. Sounds like a hardware issue, but others may have different advice.

I've had 2 soft reboots since reinstalling Slim 3.1 (from stock ICS), but that's it. Some ROMs I've tried in the past seemed to have them more often than others, but I haven't been able to nail down exactly why that happens.
Most of them these days are fairly solid and shouldn't be rebooting, especially not as often as you are experiencing. Have you installed a custom kernel? Are you OC/UV? Do you have BBS installed to see if something is preventing deep sleep?

Two soft reboots are not bad, but the amount that I have had is way moer than that. I know that some roms are going to be different than others thats why I tried multiple to see.
I don't have better battery stats installed because battery loss isn't really my issue. I have decent battery life (other than the fact that the SOD's and reboots seem to kill 7-10 percent every time they happen. I also never oc/uv always leave stock..
Would BBS tell me what is causing the reboots?
Thanks for both of your inputs.
You had some high battery temp issues. Is your device still running hot? That would cause a reboot. Liquidzoo, you had hot battery issue, could this be similar to what you where experiencing?

The high battery temp issues came about right after I odin'd, but that was telling me these things in which I'm not sure that CM10 has a pop up for notification on these things.
It doesn't but how does the device feel? Does it feel hot. If it gets too hot the phone will shut itself down and reboot

Yes the device feels abnormally hot all the time
That's most likely why it's rebooting. Now all we have to do is figure out why it's hot. Liquid zoo had similar issues and I think he brought it all the way back to stock to remove some wake locks.
Liquidzoo , any thoughts?

My guess is the temperature is causing the reboots.
Install Better Battery Stats and look at the CPU States. It could very well be that something is preventing deep sleep, which in turn would cause heat and heat would cause shutdown.

I experienced the same thing with my SR. I called up AT&T customer care and told them that this was unacceptable. After a while they sent me a new SGS III. It is most commonly a HW issue, which is what I was experiencing. I explained that to them, and that is what lead them to send me the GS III

The problem is I work in the call center atmosphere and I just can't bring myself to call in and be an asshole. It is unacceptable and I definitely should call them to talk to them about it, but I doubt I will get as far as you. I will also post some BBS dump after it has time to gather some information.
