So over the past few weeks I've been extremely flash happy. I've practically flashed every ROM in the dev section besides the JB roms that have broken radios. The latest ROM I flashed to was MIUI V4, it was super SUPER laggy and sluggish so I decided to go back to my all time favorite ROM of eaglesblood 4.0.4 AOSP. I flashed the rom, my favorite kernel (trinity g2x ics OC), new baseband fix and ICS Gapps package. Everything went fine at first boot except for the fact that I had no battery meter. It was gone. When I went into settings > battery it said my battery percentage was 999%. I figured it must have been something I did to the ROM zip as I modded battery icons in eaglesblood a few weeks prior may have had a corrupt file or something. So did a fresh download of the ROM. Flashed everything again, in the exact order and had the same problem. From there, I went back to my trusty nandroid backup of vanilla CM7 and my battery meter is working just fine. I cannot find a solution on the internet to what would make my battery icon, stats and overall detection completely disappear. Any ideas?

I lost my backup of my original factory ROM, I tried the RC ICS ROM and it did not work. I had cyanogenmod 7.1 alpha running but now it is very unstable. I have a series problem where the phone options screen keeps randomly popping up, without me pressing the top power button. I would now like to revert back to the stock Sense 3.0 ROM that shipped with the Sensation. If anyone can help me I would so grateful as this is a super annoying problem to deal with.
I have Revolution, Clockmod Recovery and have tried multiple ROM's and find they all have some sort of bug
Another thing, the battery life has deteriorated to the point that I can not even get more than a half day of standby with a quarter of usage.
Please explain how I can get the factory ROM back on the phone with no bugs or issues. Thanks.
have you tried any other ICS ROM? majority of them are stock with minor tweaks,
insertcoin 4.3.1 is pretty stable
Click Me!
I know you'll probably do so already, but make sure you do a full wipe before flashing the stock ROM
I tried the RCmix ICS but when I installed it, all that happened was it kept popping up a dialog box non stop and was unable to use it so I reverted back to the Cyanogenmod 7.1
Can you please let me know where I can get this ROM, I will give it a shot.

What files are independent in cm9 vs cm7 and can stick around causing cm7 to have issues?
is there a verbose boot, or a boot that shows current CPU speed?
i believe when i go back to cm7 i am running at a max of 200mhz during boot which is god awful for the software.
ok so i had aokp on the phone all night after 14 hours of struggle yesterday.
CM7 was always SLOW!!!
anyhow i was on AOKP, i only did a format data/wipe factory in recovery. just the one option
and installed cm7. just worked. smooth. fast.
so i rebooted, installed gapps. then wiped system, reinstalled cm7 and gapps.
and all worked fine.
the only difference from yesterday was i went back to ics to go back to cm7
also cm7 yesterday my first flash was the newest build. but i had gone to stock, back to new/back to old (may 1st) a few times
today after my first flash was may 1st.
i dont know what it was. seems fine. i will inform if it changes.
I added some alarm tones, and they werent visible from the alarm clock so i rebooted, and it rebooted in the slow mode. so i did a reboot again and then held power while i saw samsung, and it booted normally again. i wonder if my phone is crapping out on me
So I went back to stock froyo and did a complete wipe of everything, even my sd cards. then I plugged into kies mini and updated to gingerbread, and about every time my phone went into standby mode after maybe 10 minutes it would do a soft reboot. I thought it might just be a problem with the stock rom, so I rooted and got a custom kernel, and I installed many different stock based gingerbread roms, all with the same effect. then, I tried cm7 and had NO PROBLEM with the reboots. also, I have no problems on any froyo roms or any aosp based roms. thanks for any help with this
Try using the one click to stock or the updated odin packages. Follow their instructions to the letter....

Reboots
I was running MIUI on my phone and had problems and took it to the local ATT repair shop and of course their solution was to clear out the phone and revert back to stock Gingerbread UCLB. It seemed to run well for awhile, but after about two weeks I started having random and multiple reboots too. I then odin'ed the rooted stock gingerbread (I believe posted by Entrophy) and loaded the RemICS 1.2a Rom. It seems much faster and smoother than the stock rom. We will see how it lasts. Does anyone seem to have problems with loaded Roms seeming to deteriorate after awhile? It seems like on both my Infuse and a Captivate that I have, the performance and stability seems to go bad over time...
I've had my S3 for about 3-4 months or so, and I've recently been having this problem.
The day I got it I rooted it and everything was going good, battery wasn't amazing, but definitely reasonable.
After the boot loader was unlocked, I unlocked it with the EZ unlock in the Play Store.
I then loaded up Synergy r50 (nightly at the time) and everything seemed improved.
Anyways, I have since then loaded Paranoid Android, CM10, Beans, and Incubus' Jellywiz.
I went to Beans after Synergy, everything was still fine, then I loaded up Jellywiz RLS7 for a day, and it ran extremely warm and I was dropping
a percentage of my battery every 2 minutes. I nandroided back to Beans, and had the overheat and battery drain problem on that too. I wiped everything and went to Synergy (newest nightly, forgot the number) (edit: added the ktoonsez kernel after many FC's) and the problem still exists. I'm also getting horrible cell signal (not 4g, 4g is fine) at my school where it used to be perfectly fine. Anyone know what I could possibly do besides returning it? I already used Odin to go back to the latest non-leaked stock, and it's still doing it. Thank you very much.
TL;DR: After flashing multiple roms, then flashing Jellywiz, my phone runs much too hot for comfort, borderline burning, battery life goes fast, and I get next to no signal at my school.
Thanks again for any help!

Did you try to odin back to Stock, get the new OTA and maybe odin the leaked radio on top? I'd give it a try and see how it works out for you 1-2 days. People are reporting better single with the leaked radio. You flashed a lot of stuff in a very short time and you missed the latest official radio from the G7 OTA.
If you still have issues return the phone to VZW. If not DebugFS, EZ Unlock (make sure to use version 1.2 from rootzwiki) and EZ recovery again. Make a clean Nandroid and go back to your favorite ROM.
All the downloads you need can be found in droidstyle's sticky in devel.

Thank you very much! I just finished installing the OTA and I'm about to flash the leaked radio through Odin.
I'll post back in a few days or so in case this doesn't end up working or if any one else is having this issue and doesn't want to post (much like I was until I realized I can't stand the issues I was having)
Hopefully this works, thanks again!
(If anyone else has any other remedies for this, would be nice to post just in case this doesn't work, thank you)

you are welcome,
by the way - try to avoid Jelly Bean ROMs like CM10 or AOKP. They all have issues with the RIL and we have to wait for someone to figure out a fix or an official JB TouchWiz leak.
Hello, all.
I have a T-Mobile Blaze 4G with rooted stock ROM (Gingerbread), flashed radio version T989UVMC6, manually debloated and dewizzed. I'm running Halo launcher and Busybox Free version 9.6.
Since almost the first day I've had this phone, it would occasionally force close the phone process, usually when hanging up the phone with the Bluetooth radio on and paired with an earpiece. It happened bone stock, rooted, after I changed the modem, whenever. It seemed to happen less often after I changed the modem. The process always starts back up, but the Bluetooth device connection and system sound controls are wonky (unusable) until the phone is rebooted.
The only thing that seems to stop it is running Zepplinrox's V6 Supercharger script. That, however, occasionally freezes the entire system when trying to open certain apps, requiring a reboot. I've run earch after search on this subject, and nobody else seems to have this problem. The only thing I haven't tried is wiping the whole thing and flashing a custom ICS or JB ROM. I tried Dark Knight ver. 8 and hated it pretty much instantly.
I have two questions. Number one; Will flashing a custom ROM fix this situation? I figure that this must be a problem with the crappy stock Samsung ROM. Number two; Which ROM is fully functional and stable? I'd really like to keep this phone dependable. I don't care about the latest and greatest funky cool features that are hit-or-miss at best. I just need dependable, fast and functional.
Since you have been having issues for a while, I would suggest starting fresh. With a few runs of black hole wipe from cwm. Add a run of the gremlin remover for extra cleanliness. Then a flash of the latest ICS rooted stock rom and kernel, for reliability.

I'll definitely go for the rooted version! Does it matter what order in which the ROM and the kernel are flashed? Also, I take it from the name of the download link that I'll have to go through the process of de-bloating this thing again. S'okay, I actually enjoy that part, but I don't want to screw it up since I've not messed with anything newer than GB. Is there a good guide somewhere on the forum for apps that can be dumped safely? I know there was one for GB stock root.
Thanks for the response.

Flash the ROM then the kernel, rewipe cache and davlik, then profit.

A few more silly questions; Do I need GAPPS or is that just for CM? Aren't the CM 10 ICS nightlies fairly stable and relatively bug-free? I use CM7 on my Nook color and it's...okay... Just a few little annoying things pop up with that. To be honest, I like the idea of starting with a clean slate and adding stuff I like rather than pulling stuff out of the Samsung stock ROM, but the issues I've had with the Nook and CM7 have sort of scared me off. Your opinions?

All the AOSP ROMs for the Blaze needs GAPPs. And yes. The latest CM10 nightly is stable. And you said CM10 ICS? CM9 is ICS and CM10 is Jellybean.

The stock roms don't require gapps, but like Wolf said the cm10 jb variants do.
If your willing to use cm10 it is very stable. Just use the latest CM10 nightly and not the old stable version.

Of course. I get a bit confused ever since people started talking about 10.1.
Okay, I went ahead and installed the stock rooted ROM with the stock kernel. Went through the debloating process (mostly, there are some apps that I'm not sure I can do without so they stay for now), and did some customizing. I'm seeing a bit more battery drain. Is this an issue with ICS or do I need to try another kernel or supercharge the phone? I also have this crazy issue with ROM Manager ver. 5.5.3.0. It tells me that there is an updated version of Clockworkmod Recovery, but it freezes when I try to flash from ROM Manager. Also, ROM Manager freezes when I try to reboot into Clockworkmod Recovery. Maybe I need to test a bit more before I mess with it any more.
**EDIT** Well, it looks as if my CWM recovery installation is corrupted. Can I reflash it without messing up my current ROM?

Yes, with Odin, in the Dev forum
BTW, stay away from ROM Manager with our device. I've softbricked so many times because of it, it's ridiculous

Since you have it setup, except for battery life. I would make a backup, then try a mod one at a time and see if any help. Also check the battery stats to see if anything of is seen. ICS will use more juice than GB, generally.
I would suggest Nos/direct injection, supercharger, or cross breeder. I would use one and see, then restore and try another.

Some time later...
I've been using the stock rooted ICS ROM since my last post, debloated and dewizzed of course, with Holo Launcher and T989UVMC6 baseband version flashed. Just over a month has passed, and I have good news!
I FREAKING LOVE THIS PHONE!!!
All of the force close and freezing issues have vanished, the phone's battery lasts almost as long as it did on GB, it's WAY more user friendly, and the phone is as fast as it ever was.
The bad news is that my wife got a GS4 and I lust after it now. : /
Thanks to everyone for their help!
