About had it with this phone

I bought my Captivate on 12/13. For the first 3 weeks I had it I had almost no problems with it (other than the usual GPS issues). About 3 weeks ago I rooted (1-click Root), installed the 1-click decripple, SGS Tools, Titanium Backup and OCLF and removed some of the bloatware, but stayed with the stock ROM. Got some noticeable improvement as far as Quadrant benchmarks, but about a week after I did all that the phone started freaking out. I had my first of 2 unexplained shutdowns. Simple things, like receiving calls, would lock the phone up. Then I started having force closes when I tried to use a speed dial. The past week the battery has been doing strange things like losing 60% charge over 4-5 hours without using the phone for anything. It will somehow go back to normal and work fine for 4-5 days. Today, the force closes and lockups started anew. Again, an incoming call locked the device. I didn't even know it for 3 hours when I turned it on and the clock was over 3 hours behind and the screen wouldn't take any input beyond unlocking. Reboot and later I tried to speed dial and back into force close loop. Reboot...still does it. Tried to bring up my contacts and get a black screen, eventually leading to getting kicked back to the Home screen. Obviously, the contacts issue is related to the speed dial issue, which is probably related to the incoming call issue since they all are tied together. But what could be the problem? I am so frustrated I'm ready to hurl this thing at a wall. I uninstalled OCLF and am considering an Odin flash to stock. Seems like the phone is really flaky when it has a full of >90% charge. Any clues?

I would start with olcf. The lag fix it used its not recommended and may be causing data corruption

I have said it plenty of times before, and I will continue to preach....I recommend flashing back to stock and master clear to troubleshoot. That will give you assurance that you will start on a fresh clean slate, as far as bugs/data corruption/bad configurations. Obviously you will want to back up all of your data first. After you flash back and master clear, don't do anything else to it other than installing regular apps from the market to see how it runs. If it continues to act up, then you know you have hardware issues. If it fixes it, then you know you had something going on with your config or data corruption.

Whats your build number? If it is one of the 1007 builds then you may be able to get a warranty exchange for the reboots.

Getting noticeable improvement as far as Quadrant benchmarks go doesn't always = better

Here's the really odd thing, pulling the battery and rebooting seems to clear the issue for a few days. A plain reboot won't. I alternate between 2 batteries, both OEM. I've never cleared the battery stats. Could it be an issue with one or both batteries? It always seems to happen shortly after taking the phone off the charger.

If you haven't already, you can try recalibrating your battery. But the route I would take is flashing back to stock using odin one click. It doesn't take very long and it will rule out alot of things

Yup...I agree...and I would start with a 100% clean slate..and not use any data from any previous time..Flash a good kernel..a good modem..apply the gps fix of your choice..and enjoy..Trying to use parts of a stock rom..is self defeating...wither or not you get uber high benchmarks or not...You may want to stay with some type of stock build..but you IMHO your better off going with a I9000 rom/kernel/modem...Anything that is even close to stock AT&T is junk as far as I know.

As soon as I have a few hours to spend redoing all my data, apps and info, I think that's what I'll do. I already downloaded the 1-click Odin OEM ROM. After flashing Odin do I have to redo the JH7 OTA update?

What if there's something wrong with an app I installed that is causing the problem? Wouldn't reinstalling my apps with TB just bring that problem back?

It really doesn't even take a few hours to back up and restore. I have an 8gb external sd card full of music, photos and videos and over 200 apps stored internally and it takes me 10-15 mins if that using titanium backup pro for apps . You don't have to restore jh7 but it might be a good idea to do so if that's what your phone had out of the box.

Typically restoring normal apps you get from the market will not cause you grief. But what can cause you grief is backing up and restoring mods, system data, configuration data etc. The goal is to create a totally unhacked unmodded totally stock experience to isolate and possibly identify what could be causing problems

and OCLF.... dont forget that OCLF causes PAIN!

I need my phone tomorrow for work, so I'll settle for just uninstalling OCLF for now. Maybe Friday or Saturday I can sit down and "go back." I don't remember if the phone had JH7 or if I updated it OTA when I first got it, but that's what it has been running almost since day 1. Is there an Odin for JH7?

No there isn't but heres a thread on how to install it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790080&page=20
You will need to download jh7_ota.zip.
Basically, after you flash back to stock, you have to install clockworkmod recovery, place the zip file on your internal memory, boot into clockworkmod recovery and choose to install the zip file. I actually did this the other day to see if it actually works, because my phone came with jh7 out of the box.

PS...if you kept the box your phone came with, it will show near the barcodes if your phone came with JH7 or JF6

Box says JF6, so I must have upgraded it. Don't remember doing it, though. What's wrong with just using the Odin for JF6 and letting the phone do the OTA for JH7?

One click lag fix sucks.

Strange Issues with my Infuse

I've never had any major problems with my Infuse since I got it.
The battery is getting weaker but I bought a 2600Mah USB Backup Battery and that gives me another 7-8 hours for about 13-14 hours of use.
To make a long story short, I unlocked for use in Mexico City on TelCel and had some issues, so I returned the phone back to stock, unrooted.
Since that point however, while it would occasionally freeze before, its become a daily thing now and really bothersome because I can't even stop audio from playing via bluetooth. The touch screen becomes unresponsive and only a soft reboot or a hard reboot (removing the battery) returns the phone to a useful state.
It seems I have to do is every couple of hours now though, so I am posting here to get some suggestion on how to fix it.
Its been two years already since I got it so I am eligible for a new phone, but this one continues to work well besides this issue.
Thanks

1. your microSD may be going bad
2. if you haven't done so, back up all your stuff and try a factory reset...this may erase all existing info and bring the phone back to day#1

I mentioned that in the post, I did it while in Mexico City. It worked fine until this week, late last week. The battery only gives me about 5 hours now with just 32% audio playback and about 10% web access.
I guess I'll order a Anker battery from Amazon.
I rooted the phone again last night but before I did that, the phone became unresponsive three times in an hour. Which microSD card are you talking about? I just bought a 32GB Class 6 card and that works fine, I play all my audio from it, no problems.
If you mean the internal microSD card, that could be possible. I assume I can crack open the phone and replace this easily?
I should mention it never does that while plugged into a power source, so maybe this is all battery related.

Possible Fix...
When I had to hard reboot the phone again this afternoon, a little forced closed window came up for TwLauncher.
After rebooting the phone I looking at Titanium Backup and cleared the cashe from TwLauncher and that seems to have solved the problem.
Somebody on here mentioned that after installing a ROM they had the same problem, was worth a try.
I will report back if the issue returns.

My personal beliefs are that TB is good for causing a lot of problems.I used to use it,even bought pro,but even not restoring data when restoring apps I seamed to develop odd quirks or problems on about any ROM. Since not using it have much fewer problems.I am sure many people love it and think it's great, just thought I would give my $0.02

if your battery holds a charge...that is, it's letting you run the phone for more than several hours, it's unlikely to be the battery.
lags are usually due to apps misbehaving, media scan, wakelocks and wifi bugs...there are some others.
a factory reset ...complete reset..complete stock..will let you know if you have hardware of software issues.

Thus far, that issue has not returned. Yes the battery holds a charge, but last only about 5-6 hours now, not 7-8 hours.
It seems it was a minor software issue. I did a factory reset, you keep missing that.
I did it in Mexico City (7 days ago).... Since that point and returning to the US, I have put my apps back on the phone. I had already updated to Gingerbread and it just reset to that.
I won't know more until I am out and about with my phone. I will be watching various auto racing events and don't plan on leaving the house this weekend.

No problem, I've never had a problem with TB. I updated the rom to a rooted version of the AT&T Gingerbread release so I could even use it... lol
The phone was rooted for Froyo, I downloaded the AT&T Gingerbread from Samsung via Kies when it was released and it remained rooted.
But resetting it back to stock, TB didn't work until I put the rooted rom on the phone.

Exactly...you had to use TB or another restore. If you used TB on froyo and restored on GB or vice versa, you may run into issues.
and ...sigh... I did not miss the fact that you stated that you had reset the phone. I just had doubts that you understood what I was trying to say...from inside the phone..under settings/privacy..there is a reset option. make sure everything you wanted is already backed up. reset it..then put it into download mode and use one of the odin or heimdall package and flash it back to complete stock...run it stock and dont back up anything. download only apps from the play store or side load the apps if you had the apk's.
check the battery use to see if you have wake locks or android OS or android system eating up for battery..then you will know

Well like this, I will not go into the details but somebody else put Swipe Lock on the phone and of course I didn't know what he put into the phone. I was trying to resolve data issue on TelCel.
I had to do a hard reset outside of the operating system. Since the ROM was already upgraded to Gingerbread but unrooted, it went back to its unrooted state meaning I couldn't use TB.
So I re-downloaded apps from my memory. All of them are free so it wasn't an issue, just time consuming.

See above.
I used download mode to get out of Swipe Lock. I never used Swipe Lock, a-hole wanted to charge me 120 pesos ($7) to wipe it and put it back to stock, I wasn't going to do it, I know enough about Android phones to do it myself.
Oh well, lesson learned, I believe wiping the cashe from TwLauncher has solved the problem.
I did re-install all the apps from the store. I wasn't able to use TB until Thurs night (5/16). I noticed the errors Friday afternoon, wipe the cashe and no issues since.

[Q] Severe Battery Drain

I'm at work so I'll make my initial post brief. I just got a year old Tab 7.7 and even if I put it in airplane mode with all radios off and no sim installed I lose at least 30% battery overnight. Night before last i went to bed with 75% and at 5pm yesterday had 6% left. Everything stock ics AFAIK

Probably some rogue app you installed using CPU cycles. Since you're not rooted, many good options (apps and methods) for finding the culprit are excluded. There are some that don't require root privileges though, but can't find wakelocks.
You need to take a look at the apps you installed and what changes you made during setup etc
Personally, before doing anything;
1. I'd just factory reset,
2. don't install or setup anything (except the very basic setup at first boot),
3. drain tab to around 5/10 %
4. recharge UNINTERRUPTED to Full and
5. immediately unplug.
This will hopefully clean your system and recalibrate the battery (if needed).
6. Lastly, check again before any further setup or installation of apps.

That's the thing. I just got it and I did a factory restore on it right away as the previous owner left all his info on it. All I've really installed is Facebook chrome and a few other basic things. I am using widget locker but I also use it on my S3 without issue. It never enters deep sleep. This is my 5 android device and I've never had this issue.

Else, try an app like I posted previously to (maybe help) track down your problem. Otherwise, my first suggestion......

I had used battery stats plus and cpu spy. Here are some screenshots

Obviously your device isn't going into deep sleep. Leaving the charger connected (once full) will also prevent this, but not usually a huge drain as you described.
There is a wakelock, and you'll need to track it down by trial & error, or, as I suggested, start fresh and work from there ....
Best of luck

Much to my dismay I did a complete wipe with no change... Here is my CPU stats with nothing installed except CPU spy in airplane mode unplugged overnight. Lost 30% battery while in airplane mode wifi and Bluetooth off sitting on my table for 7 hours. I went camping last weekend and with my galaxy S3 in airplane mode I lost 12% in 24 hours while using it for music. So this can't be normal....

Please define "complete wipe"? Your steps,?
Did you install anything else other than CPU spy app?
What did you setup/config or install after initial boot?
There will be something you've done (causing the wakelock).
As I said, do nothing after wiping, or just use the CPU spy app and watchdog to see what app is preventing deep sleep. You need to rule things out.

I entered recovery mode and selected wipe data factory reset and rebooted and went through the setup. Downloaded cpu spy, charged to full, put in airplane mode, Unplugged went to bed.

Don't know. Sounds like you have done everything correctly.
The only two things left I can suggest are: the non-root battery calibration (as previously described) and re-flash the latest official firmware with Odin.
There are many guides on how to use Odin, and official firmware can be found at sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com
If you're unfamiliar with Odin, NEVER tick the re-partition box in Odin unless you are using a PIT file. In your case, you don't need a PIT file. There are users here that i have seen "recommend" to do that (maybe even deliberately !?) and doing so most likely will brick your device. So just tick "auto reboot" and "reset time" along with "PDA" (correct device firmware).

Thanks for all your help so far. Maybe I'm better off rooting. I don't need anything fancy. Just a stock based ics or stable jb. Are there any options that can disable the 4g so I don't have to constantly be in airplane mode and also remove the Verizon branding and bloatware?

No problem.
Just make sure you flash the correct firmware for your device model.
P6800 and P6810 firmware won't work for Verizon.
There may be more info for Verizon in the forums.

Looks like I might have fixed it. I installed CWM and rooted and did a backup. nstalled Titanium Backup and did a backup of system apps then uninstalled anything related to Verizon, sim card, or phone/dialer the I did a battery calibration. I still dont know if the drainage percentage is what it should be.

Then again maybe not. This is my stats after telling it to keep wifi on during sleep never then switching it back to always.

Stock ICS. I think I found the problem, but I'm not sure why. If I leave my wifi on all the time it's fine. I. Went to bed last night with 58% battery remaining after 17 hours on battery. But if I turn wifi of then back on, no deep sleep. It just confuses me that it will deep sleep with wifi on, but not with it off. If I reboot after I toggle wifi it goes back to normal with deep sleep.

Marshmallow 6.0.1 and battery time

Hi guys. I have a problem with my battery. Since update marshmallow 6.0.1 my phone won't go into deep sleep, cpuspy says that lowest cpu speed is 400mhz and that's it there is no deep sleep. At night my battery drain without any use in about 6 hours 10-15%. I have already disabled Google now, cleaned cache and tried every possible way that I know but problem is still there.
Only one thing that after cache clean it goes into deep sleep once or twice but once I charge my phone deep sleep is gone, and it's kind a frustrating. I have read online that many users encountered that problem, I just wanna know did anyone solve it, or anyone know when Samsung is going to release fix for that.
P.S. oh I forgot my WiFi is also unstable after that update, it's work but not like it's used.

I would like to know too. I'm at crossroads now trying to decide whether to update to MM or not. Feedback please anyone?

i also had the deep sleep problem (not the wifi one), but I flashes the pure stock extralite rom with the arter97 kernel and now everything works fine. i lose about 1-2% over night.

Well, it is an option to flash another kernel and rom, but since my phone is new and under warranty I would like to keep it clear from such things at least for a while.
I was hope that someone find a solution without flashing

Help: Android system consuming 90% overnight... in deep sleep. Battery down by ~15%

I did a complete charge last night before I hit the sack. Battery was around 96%, today morning 80%!
I flashed stock ROM using TWRP, on first charge cycle battery is fine - just 1% overnight drain with 8 hrs SOT. On second charge cycle this issue hits me everytime.
All my radios are usually off (WiFi, NFC, Bluetooth, Data).
My phone seems to be in deep sleep a good portion of that time (See WLD statistics - attachment #1).
Android system sucks my battery during sleep and it was at 90% relative consumption when I woke up (See screen shot #1, Android sys has consumed 1840mAh!! This is ridiculously high for a phone that is apparently in Deep Sleep!)
Also attached screen shots from WLD for Summary, Kernal / Partial wakelocks & Alarms.
Device is rooted.
Going crazy trying to find out what's happening.
This happened with KangVIP and my current B180 ROM's which have great battery life as reported by other users here .

When did you install / reset your ROM? What is the build you are on? I have read some posts that suggest to let the system be for first few days since it is in a "Learning Phase". Mine is currently in that phase.
Also, I find that many users here are not facing this issue on the ROM's that I am on, but some users are. I have faced this in multiple different ROM's.
Hence, I suspect this is an issue of some setting that we have changed. This is the first thing I do after reset / flash - modify a bunch of settings.
After searching and reading a lot, I have not come across any solid solutions from anywhere.
Here's a solution from the other thread. But I don't have this in system/apps. So this goes down the drain.

Couple others that are worth mentioning,
1. WiFi causing the drain (Am currently debugging this, modifying options).
2. Format SD card on new ROM, or just remove it (Would be great if you could try this out).
3. Factory reset has not solved for most people, but for some. (Did they *not* tweak some setting after reset?)
4. I think much of this drain is experienced after, charging and during sleep after that!

I'm on stock B192, been there for a few weeks now... didn't factory reset after the update, didn't have this issue during the first few weeks. Just recently. I haven't modified anything out of the ordinary.

What value do u have for WiFi -> Advanced -> Keep WiFi on During sleep?
I had the battery drain till last night. Before sleeping I charged it completely, and modified this WiFi setting. Overnight I had only 2% drain as compared to +15% over last few days.
Battery looks good for now. I had the feeling that my WiFi is consuming more power than 4G (Need to verify if I am right). Currently observing.
I hope it is not one of those sporadic issues!

I presume u have been facing this issue at least over past few days now, not just a day or two.
Try toggling to Never. Recharge to full before you hit the sack. Lets see if that changes anything. This helped me, but need to observe for multiple consecutive days.

Will do tonight, thanks for the advice.

If you not absolutely needed, switch OFF Google synchronisation. Profiles - Menu - uncheck auto synchronisation.

That's one of the first few things I disable. Nor do I use backup.

The battery drain is back. Disappeared for just a couple of days.
Is there anyone who knows how to fix this issue?

I would request you to do a back up of your apps and then factory reset and then again flash the ROM but via dload method.
Everything will be fine.
Then you can restore your apps
