does it require rooting???
Do you have a lot of apps and don't wanna lose the settings?
if not or if you don't care about setting them up again why not do a factory data reset and just erase everything and start from scratch?
i would suggest a you make a backup first but you're probably not rooted and even if you do, the backup might not work since it might also back up any wrong settings or something like that (i might be wrong here)
Why not root your phone? you can always unroot and relock the bootloader if you are worried about warranty.
edit: BTW any custom ROM requires you unlock your bootloader and install ClockworkMod recovery. so you would have to do that first in order to flash the AOSP roms.
but what abt the battery issue...
it is the main problem of all...

Have you looked at the battery usage under system settings > battery?
it likely is be a misbehaving app since you say several apps don't work correctly.
this should also go away with a flash of a ROM or doing the factory data reset.
Edit:
My wife has having similar problems after the ICS OTA update. she had a lot of apps and a bunch of widgets on the home screens, the phone was sluggish and some apps didn't work right or were FC'ing. In the end she just did a factory data reset and started from scratch and the phone is stable and feels faster and all apps are working fine now.

is it a kernel or a rom...
and i saw the screenshots of this rom- CodenameDroid-(MOD)-1.2.0-NS
is this rom a good one....with faster performance and a good battery
tried ICS stock rom.
No battery problem. similar life compared with 2.3: about 1.5 days
but ICS is running slower than 2.3. Though speed still acceptable, but I want the 2.3 speed
@colocynth
Try the Matr1x Kernel und you will be fine....
Hi cloedu, I tried mv 2.1.28, using matrix kernel, if my memory is correct. Still not speed up, just like stock.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Formatting everything (system , boot , cache , data .....) in CWM recovery , then reinstalling stock ICS ROM made a day and night difference in battery life for me .... From 15 hours avarage to almost 1.5+ days ... Highly recommended...

Try restarting the fone by press long power on/off button...

May b its a case of random shutdown

same here bro..i use unkown kernal 1.3a.when i put it to charge it switches off or even when i speak a call it hangs..
suggestion:just remove and put the battery again..reminds me of the nokia phone days which hangs and we do same there:-(
any particular issue y it keeps turning off its hapeening only after i flashed new rom ...
is it hardware issue or software .... the problem is i have to keep checking the phone again and again if its on or its gone off quite irritating ..
and yes i keep on/off button long pressed and it restarts itself
This problem occurs particularly on stock ROM and that too on indian ROM...
Theres one ROM mentioned in the below url, where people didnt faced after flashing it. (May be Australian)
Check the link

i am not using stockrom ... using frank's 1.5
I think its a Kernel Problem. Try flashing Stock Kernel/Any other kernel..
Using Stock XWLA4 without any ROOT/CWM and just Stock Kernel..
Its great.. No hangs!!!
Yes the problem is not ROM. Its the Kernel. Not only Unknown Kernel. But all those kernels having Voodoo Sound are acting weiredly. It is draining the whole battery overnight in standby.
Now I have installed Ardatdat kernel 1.6. Lets see if thd problem resolves.

Yes it was the Kernel. I flashed Ardatdat kernel 1.6 and now Phone is working like charm. No deep sleep, no battery drain and not becoming unresponsive.

well i have done the same since yesterday and kept the cpu @ 1.3 ghz ... soo far its working wonderful ... will keep it on test for like couple of days and then come to conclusion if its good or not.
even after flashing kernel the issue still persists ..
maybe i need to change rom once agan any idea what can be done ?
I too have been facing the unresponsive issue a couple of times since I changed to 1.7b2 kernel but I thought it might be because of the apps I installed..

i have noticed it happens more when i m outdoor and phone is in pocket ... i also guess that phone gets heated at times and that when this problem arises more.
ANy idea guyz why it gets heated up when outdoor and goes to deep sleep ... hould i go back to stock rom fir India and then see ... if soo how can i reset the binary data count ... i normally flash thru odin 1.8.5

Can you update me what they say... Ok maybe a noobie question just was trying to check the binary counter and below is details i get from ODIN3 download mode.
Custom Binary Download : No (0 counts)
Current Binary : Samsung Official
does this means i can flash back stock Indian rom and take it to service center and my warranty still holds firm ?

Yes you can flash Stock Rom and do factory reset before taking it to Service Center and any repair will be covered under warranty...
I'm getting the same deep sleep problem as the others. It started after I flashed the v1.3a Ultimate kernel. But since i also dropped my phone that day (Not hard, but still), i was scared.
I'm using the stock DDKH4 India 2.3.5 ROM
I will try changing the kernel and give an update.

known issue from CM10
You have two options; read and ask at the cm10 thread or try another ROM (I'll suggest android revolution hd for simplicity and after full wiping)

I have used the megatron ROM for nearly a year and when i tried to upgrade to one of the RaymanFX's CM10(v7), i had lot of issues.
the ROM worked as it was supposed to work but as soon as i keep the tablet in sleep mode and wake it up in few minutes, the system becomes unresponsive. i tried many different ways to install it but it didnt work. I even used superwipe lite but that also didnt seem to work.
I used superwipe full and nd now the rom wont boot up!!
Please help..!

Did you try flashing another kernel? I have RaymanFX's CM10 v6 installed and flashing KAT kernel #70 lidpatch seems to have solved my problems.
