Every time I put my phone to sleep it freezes and reboots. Sometimes it'll reboot fine, others it'll freeze on the google boot screen until I pull the battery. I've tired 4 different ROMs from locked stock to unlocked Cm9 to baked and slimbean. I've tired dirty flashing. I'm out of ideas now. If anyone could help out I would greatly appreciate it.

Flash stock? Try a different kernel then ROM specific. Factory reset.

My knowledge ends at locking/unlocking and flashing ROMs. How do I change kernals and how would I know which one to change to?

Changing kernels is exactly like changing ROMs. You flash them, although, you have to wipe cache and dalvik cache every time you change a kernel. Look in the developer section for our phone, there are 3 kernel choices: Matr1x, Marmite, and Air Kernel. Test each out on different ROMs, find your favorite. Be sure though, if you're going to be hopping between Android versions (4.0.4 (ICS), 2.3.7 (GB), and 4.1.1/4.1.2 (JB)) You find the version of the kernel that corresponds with whatever version of Android the ROM you're using is running. As far as I know, Marmite is only available for JB, Matr1x has kernels for all versions of Android (GB-JB), and I think Air only has ICS and JB versions. Hope this helps!

Hi..
It either some junk files u have floating around ur SD card..
Or
Are u tweaking the CPU when u install the ROMs?
Or
Are u using titanium backup to restore any of ur apps?
Try to do the entire factor reset/ wipe both cache & dalvik but also flash a zip file call "wipe all" ( it formats everything under storage and mounts except the SD card stuff)
Then flash the newest slim bean 3.0 it comes with a good kernel
Flash it and do not add anything. Check if the sleep reboot issues still occur.
If not then make a backup b4 adding ur apps and restores since one of those can be causing it.
I hope it works... good luck

Hello everyone!
Phone: nexus s 3g running stock 4.0.3 with matr1x 14.0 kernel
my 1st question:
i was wondering how can revert back to stock kernel without flashing my stock rom again or going back to my previous backup?
i know it is very easy to switch from kernel to kernel but i would like to know how to switch back to my stock kernel. If you come across a link please send it to me. Thanks much appreciated.
my 2nd question:
my phone reboots the 1st time when loading up matrix kernel.
what happens is i press the power button .. the phone boots up normally then halfway through the animation it gets stuck and the phone reboots BUT this time the boot animation works properly and i am finally booted to my phone. Note that i have absolutely no issues running the kernel + BLn + Voodo etc (also not oced either)
question how can i solve this? is it normal?
I have one last question (sorry lol)
about voodo colour is there anyway of removing the grren flash that i get from unlocking the phone.
i know i can reset to 2.3.3 colours and that does do the trick but i would like to use my own custom settings..
stock 3.0.8 kernel can be found here in 3rd post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399273
Questions regarding matrix should be asked and may already be answered in his thread
And green flash is common on kernels with voodoo it also turns screen green occasionally for me when auto brightness set
not sure how to fix haven't researched doesn't bother me that much

Alright...
First off is this a specific rom? Like kustom kream, nexus beam..
Or just stock ics rooted
Second, try this again.
Get the rom zip again, then get the kernel zip again.
1. Wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache
2. Flash rom
3. Set up rom
4. Go back to cwm
5. Wipe dalvik cache
6. Flash kernel
7. Reboot
Did you do it like that?

im on offical ICS 4.0.3 rom stock (rooted) with matr1x 14.0 CFS
well i downloaded matr1x through rom manager and after wiping dalvik cache i flashed the kernel.
is there anyway of fixing without clearing data? i have a lot of stuff on my phone i would rather not erase... also im on stock ICS so how would go about flashing it again(its not like a rom i can just dl and install or is it)?
speaking of which i know titanium backup backs up apps but does it also backup like my contacts, sms and phone settings etc?
update: i went ahead and only deleted cache and dalvik cache and then installed the kernel again. same problem =/

followed ur steps perfectly.
anyways i just restored everything back.

im 16 aswell i dont even know the 1st thing about making kernels and so forth lol.
Lol sorry you couldnt get it to work...
The only other suggestion I have is to try another rom...
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
thanks for trying .
anyways the thing is the kernel works perfectly fine other then that and sinc ei dont reboot my phone so much its really not an issue for me.
just another quick thing since that is the only problem i have experienced with the kernel and that everything else is fine working fine should i be worried about stability?
No, the kernel is pretty stable out of the box.

Try reflashing the kernel first and see how it goes. If that doesn't work it is probably best to wipe everything and reinstall.
i had a similar issue with matrix 14.5...it would boot loop unless i cleared the caches...i played around with the voltages and governors for awhile..and it was ok for a day or 2 then it started it again...so i ditched matrix and went with speedy 5 and i havent had a problem yet...

Your phone can't handle undervolt. That's the problem.
I use matr1x, have done since gb days and have never had a problem so its definitely just your phone.
Thanks for all the replies, just went back to stock. Can't have my phone acting up now that I am working. Will reroot once the update to ICS happens on Sprint.

When you really make a clean install of rom and kernel there shoudn't be such problems.
When changing KERNEL always follow this steps !!
1) CWM format /system and /cache
2) go to advanced menu, wipe dalvik.
3) Then reinstall your ROM, then flash kernel right after.
No data loss, system exactly as you left it, only difference is new kernel.
If you are switching to a different ROM, add format /data.
Hi so Im having a strange problem with my one x. Two days ago it just rebooted while it was in my pocket. Didn't do anything except install elementalX on my phone. I tried to reflash venom rom with no luck. Flashed a different rom sense based. And booted up fine. This morning same thing occurred and I'm really starting to worry.

Clear cache and dalvik cache, that is a sense kernel so make sure u are using a sense rom, also ur phone might not be able to handle the settings u are using try changing them until it is stable. If all fails use stock kernel or another custom kernel.
hey guys I picked up a gt-p3113 at a pawn shop yesterday for 50 dollars...
I am not new to xda but new to this device...
anyway I have been reading in here since then downloaded odin and used cf auto root to root the device. found mobile odin lite and want to try flashing cm10.1 on it.
where I am getting hung up at is in the tutorial it says install clockwork recovery . I believe this is kinda like a loader for recovery?
I went to the website to download cwm and realized quick I didntknow what I was doing. which file do I get and how do I flash it?
or am I wrong in my understanding that I even need this.
I apologize I am aware it is all here somewhere and I have read alot on it I just dont want to destroy this device. unfortunately since this device has had alot of work done xda is overwhelming. I am sure in a few weeks I will be caught up
thanks guys any help is appreciated.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda app-developers app
one more question... battery life on this device drains quick in comparison to our kindle fire hd. will another rom help hattery life? if it makes it worse I am relatively content with stock.
I just feel like I bought a computer at walmart and have a bunch of software and processes I do not want. instead of a clean install.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda app-developers app
Well for one, i'd use the desktop version of Odin, if you look on the development section, you should be able to find , for ex, Cf Autoroot, to flash via odin, and after that, flash an odin package for CWM recovery, remember to do a full NANDROID backup after this, just incase.. they're both extremely quick and simple to do, but you must follow each guide to the very last detail, as any mistakes can lead to a $50 paperweight, btw, awesome deal on your tab, 50 is pretty sweet! On the topic of ROMs, there are handfuls of ROMs built off of stock source, either debloated roms, or roms like Sungsonic, there are also Kernels/boot images, if its stock source, keep to stock intended kernels and boot images, as CM or AOKP kernels WILL NOT WORK.

Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda app-developers app
you'll be able to go into cwm recovery and make a full backup of your current rom, kernel etc...and remember, before flashing, factory reset in cwm, clear cache and dalvik, flash ROM, clean cache and dalvik again, the flash any other enhancements, personally, I'm using AOKP Milestone 1, 4.1.2, AOKP kernel,overclocked, my device can handle 1.42ghz (1420mhz) stable, i have it undervolted to save battery, and have my gpu overclocked when i game or bench, also using Beats Audio/Noozxoide to get some sickkkk sound out of the Wolfson DAC, never had ANY device that compares to the sound quality in this thing Happy flashing!

Its okay , you have to do this in CWM, you can download the google apps package for your version of android from Goo.im, make sure you get the package thats for your version of android, then place the zip files of the rom and gapps in your microSD or internal, if using internal, flash zips from sd in cwm, if in microsd, flash zips from external in cwm, start with the rom, factory reset, clear cache, advanced, clean dalvik, flash the rom, clean cache and dalvik again, flash the gapps, clean cache and dalvik, then reboot, ALWAYS leave your tab after it boots for 10 minutes , after 10 minutes, reboot it, leave it for another 5, reboot again, then use, this gives the device time to do some first time running operations

okay files downloaded, device is at 50 percent batt life so will charge first, worst case scenario I should be able to flash using odin back to stock corect?

Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda app-developers app
As long asyou dont cause some freak of nature hard brick that stops you from entering download mode on your tab (holding power and vol down) you'll be able to use stock image from Sammobile to return to stock, you can flash it using odin , and dont worry, i had my tab for 3 days and it already pretty much had chrome spinners, i was impatient too, came from an Acer Iconia A100, so its a little learning curve, but overall, pretty good

I feel like this ROM is taking a little longer then usual to install.
Upgrading from CM7 CWM 5. Been on the "installing update..." with about 80% done for about 10 minutes now.
I've never had this happen before.
Did a factory reset before upgrading.

FYI, make sure that you upgrade from CM9 to CM10 then to CM10.1... If you start from CM7 you can have serious problems, especially of your only on CWM 5... You should be on CWM 6.
It still may work, but its highly unlikely...

When you say Device Settings are not working, does that mean everything in the 4.2.2 Device category in System Settings (Sound, Display, Storage, Battery, Apps, and Advanced), or just the SGS4G Settings under Advanced?
Before I update, does Adobe Flash works or not (if I reinstalled it)?!
