Everytime i have tried flashing a CM7 based rom, and i've tried almost all of them, once the screen goes to sleep it won't wake up. i think that's called sleep of death (SOD), pardon my n00bness if i'm wrong. the odd thing is that when i press the wake button, the phone and even the digitizer wake up because i can hear/feel the phone unlocking when i make the sliding motion on the screen, but the screen itself will not wake up. Does anyone have any idea what's causing this? or better yet any ways of preventing/fixing this?
Do you have this issue on stock?

What kernel r u using? If u flashed uv kernel try to use stock voltage, some devices don't work well with custom uv kernels

I have this problem with all 3 kernels, stock, oc UV, and oc stock voltage .. I've had this phone for a month now, this is what makes it a waste of money for me. Even my girl has this problem with her g2x, yesterday I put cm 7.1, hers started doing it too.. and she's had 3 replacements..

Did u wipe ur data and format system before flashing? Try to fix permission too. Only guessing but maybe the battery is bad, as far as I know u not getting new one with replacement, so if u had same issue on stock rom that could be a problem.
I had 2 replacements but had that problem only if undervolt too much.

Well, I don't think its the battery dying but someone mentioned here before that if you look at the battery where the connectors are, there's 4 on the battery but 3 on the phone

No this issue only occurs on CM7 based roms, OTA 2.3.3 based roms work great

I haven't purposely flashed any non-stock kernels alongside the roms, unless all the roms i flashed included UV kernels....but i've flashed almost every CM7 based rom

I did wipe data, format system and even fix permissions and still same problem occurs, I don't think it has to do with the battery tho because stock OTA based roms don't have this issue...it must be something particular about the CM7 base
Also, could it be the fact that i have the WIND mobile optimus 2x? it says p999-DW on the back though
use miui it doesnt have the SOD problem cm7 did it the last time i had it (3 days ago)
I remember when I was on stock factory rom my GPS was working perfectly.
Now on custom rom rooted it bearly gets my location right..
Opinions?

Funny, on stock I could never get a lock. Try this: set the GPS source to internal
Grab an app called GPS status
Run it and let it download the "aiding data" them reboot, relaunch it, seconds later you should have a lock.

I'm having the exact same issues. I used to have trouble locking but now as soon as I enable gps my phone reboots. I'm gonna try wiping it clean tomorrow and running the dragon kernel to see if it helps. Running Bionix Reloaded (latest)
anyone know a quick fix without rebooting?

I too have instant locks on any stock based rom after updating my baseband. But, after flashing custom CM7/EB/ etc non stock roms i noticed it took a little longer to lock if it even locked. So i seen a post here on xda about going into the maps app via settings/ applications/ manage applications. Then clear cache/data. Then going back into navigation or maps app i would receive instant locks again. Sorry I dont have a link to that thread but thats what helped me. it takes a few extra seconds to do that but i liked it better than rebooting my phone which took longer.
Since we didn't have a Q&A thread for CM7 here it is. We've been getting more users asking questions on the development thread, so hopefully they'll notice this and ask their questions here:

yes, I have heat, but not that really hot, just a little warm when work with it more than 10 mins continuously like gaming, facebook or sth...so, it's not a big deal but battery I think I can deal with things in 24+ hours so, it's great ^^ (stock 1650 mAh fyi)...anw, has someone tried tweaks like A.S 15 beta or Supercharge or Lagfree 2.1 on CM7 yet? I applied those but don't know if they're working or not since there's nothing remarkable
Haha, after I've flashed so many roms and many times, seem like my phone now have 000...00 imei for permanent lol (forgot to backup things ^^) so, be careful men
Edit: after flashing CM7 again by FB CWM method (via CWM), the IMEI is back @@...my phone was really got me =]]

DO NOT use those tweaks on CM7. They are not made to work with CM7 and may cause issues.

Yes, flash a one click that comes with a custom kernel built in, and make sure that if you made the backup in RED cwm you restore from RED cwm

I seem to be getting inferior battery life on CM7 compared to VB w/ AntonX's kernel, with about the same amount of usage. Anyone else notice this? I'm guessing this is mainly down to the reversion to a stock kernel. Are there any tips for battery life specific to CM7 and besides the usual ones (e.g., battery apps, screen brightness, turning off mobile networks)?

CM7 will be worse on battery until they get all the kinks worked out. You might still see less battery over a custom modified stock rom.
Weird thing happened to me..from miui when I downloaded the files rebooted to recovery it booted into blue cwm so since u said that I thought ill just backup then do a red cwm since it wouldent let me flash..got on cm7 with no problems thanks guys

Try fix permissions and reflash gapps zip. If it doesn't work you might have to repartition SD card from CWM and reflash.

I'm also on liquid smooth and was experiencing the force closes ,come to find out I was using the wrong gapps , did you edit the build.prop tweaks at all I noticed when I changed the vnheapsize my phone would not sleep and when I hit the power button it would reboot , you may want to do a complete wipe and start over and then run unmodified for a while to see if the problem persists

Hey there, I have a similar issue, also running liquid smooth, where the infuse restarts and boot loops until I press the power button, then it starts up normally.
First I thought it was Pandora because it restarted when pressed on it but it also happens when I just text. It seems random. I have almost no apps installed and performed cache, davlik, data wipes before flashing the Rom.
I have around two reboots a day, and the battery drain it's pretty high, sometime when it restarts from the boot loop I have lost 3 or 4 percent of the battery just by rebooting... any ideas?!

Well the problem is not solved at all, but if has decreased markedly the reboots and the battery drainig problem, edit the file build.crop and place a few tweaks...check the super everything tread, in the mods part, you must search and find some mods tweaks and tutorials to work with
Hey man, I took a risk and sent my phone in to get the power button repaired and voila, after the repair I have not had a single reboot. My phone is around 15 months old and was rebooting more and more frequently. I hope this helps you as well!

Hi I am a total newbie in android and rooting. So a few months age I rooted my s2 using an insecure rom 4.0.4 bvlph. afrer a few my phone started turning itself off even when battery is near 100 percent . when i turned the phone on again it started saying low battery. This kept happening a lot and it has now come to a situation where i can not use the phone for more than an hour doing anything. I have attachdd a picture which shows the battery drain and how quickly it happens. I have also attached a picture which describes my phones details. I was suggested XDA by a friend and was hoping that someone can point me to the right direction.
Many thanks for your help.

Although if his battery wasn't having this problem before, it seems unlikely that it just developed exactly when he rooted.
Like they all said though, do a full wipe before you flash a new ROM.

It looks like that this rom Network and Wifi is eating up your battery the most. I would say its cause that your network signal is poor and your phone keeps searching for a good signal and that is using up your battery. You can try flashing a new rom as well as getting a new card (transfer the number to a new sim card).
