Just like the title, i have been experiencing some random rebooting in the past 9 days... at first i thought that i somehow held the on/off button inside my pocket and rebooted itself. my theory changed when i was charging it on that same night... i knew something was wrong few days after it would reboot itself from time to time.
also sometimes after rebooting (mostly when it is charging..) wifi connections start to goof off. i checked the wifi setting and it would say "error" under the "turn on/off wifi" area where you usually see the "connected/connecting/disconnected" letters, along with that some apps start to force close mostly the ones that needs the net get fc's.....
only yesterday it got worse. on the morning it had started to reboot. when i unlocked the lockscreen some apps started to FC. i usually get fc's in booting are the juice plotter, Google partner setup, and something with "wifi". now i manually rebooted it myself when it boots, it still shows those fc's. if it tried pressing some apps it tried to fc as well. manual reboot again, now messages fc's along with the three....
so i went to recovery and restored my safest backup. after restoring no more fc's in my boot. i thought it was all fine now but after a while it would randomly reboot!!!!
Styles of random reboots ive gotten:
1. on screen-off while charging after a while BOOM! reboot.
2. on screen-off not charging, after a while BOOM! reboot.
3. pressing the on/off button on the side when it was on screen-off, BOOM! reboot.
4. pressing the on/off button on the side when it was on screen-off, shows the lockscreen, shows "SD card unexpectedly removed" on status bar, BOOM! reboot.
*it wont reboot when you're using it unless it goes to screen-off for a while (like when using music player... when it goes to screen-off for a while it would reboot...)
--- i will add more of the reboots styles if i remember the others.---
i really need help. i cannot reflash to stock because my laptop got stolen since February. i would be receiving my new laptop in five days.... but i am worried that something worse would happen before even getting my laptop in five days.

Yes I know . The latest uc kernel is v10. But my laptop was stolen since the first week of february. That time the best kernel suited for poseidon rom was the v6. So till now I am stuck with v16 since the time my laptop was gone until I get my new on in 4 days at least...

Sorry, I didnt see your post earlier. But I am wiping every thing now while im replying you. I will tell you the results when it is finished.
Edit: phone seems to work normally. But some apps get fc's... But i think i know why. Its because i forgot to move back apps which were moved to the sd card back to phone memory.(using app2sd).. I know so because i remember having 7 apps moved to sd which had taken alot of space due to its size.
Anyway, thanks bro! I guess i owe you my phone but i will still be monitoring the phone and see if it'll reboot randomly again... Till i get my laptop ill reflash my phone. Again, thanks alot sandeep!and good luck with your exams again!
RE-EDIT: it not kinda fixed yet... When i woke up and checked my phone it seemed to be normal but when i opened the lockscreen fc's starts flooding me... About 6 or 7 fc's they are google goggles, superuser,titanium backup, google play music, google setup sumthing (it was in the first post..) Emai and.messages... I also get fc on yahoo mail but it doesnt fc the same time as the others. I tries uninstalling rthem and other apps as well but some time while i uninstall it starts to freeze and reboot... But the reboot is different. I doesnt reboot the "samsung galaxy s 19003 " thing. Justs stars from the glowing samsing logo. When it boots, the uninstalled apps seems to come back. So i thought of removing mg sd card and then restart... Fc's lessened to superuser, email tbackup and email. And i can uninstall now without it rebooting. Now i know ext sd cards are somewhat along with the problem. My phones antivirus does not see any viruses in it tho.
... Oh im using my SE W8.. Kinda small, hard to type...

Hmm.. I also thought if it could be the kernel as well. I researched last night on my arc and some say that it is the kernel that was doing this.i am downloading the kernel and odin on my new xperia arc as im making this post. Thanks.
Sounds like a hardware problem forme. I have this problem 4 months ago. I have random reboots. I have tried everything from flashing new roms and kernels and nothing seems to fix it. Have you tried clean flashing(xxkpe-xxkpq)? If that still doesnt work then you really have a hardware problem. The only thing you can do is to send it back to samsung service center for repair or replacement(I just hope you are still in warranty period)

Like i said i dont have a laptop yet to reflash phone to stock and check. If it'll not work, im pretty sure they'll change the motherboard.. My warranty expires on july so there is still time. pretty sure my dad will get pissed and buy an s2 instead. This phone already went to the service center twice. And the service center is far from where i live. Though i am enjoying improving the capabilities of this phone :\
Anyway what i did now was flashed uc kernel v10 via odin mobile (thanks mR_ ). Then i wiped everyting again. So far there was no fc's yet and one reboot only when i was installing dolphin browser... And thats it. Nothing else suspicious happened yet.
This problem has happened to my bro before. I helped him change his rom to clean kpu and it was fixed.

Looks like the infamous pseudo reset bug again! Well looks like it with some symptoms missing, the i9003 had a faulty board with faulty internal memory card, so when it goes to sleep the int card sometimes doesn't wake up again. I faced this problem personally myself, no amount of flashing can help you (though i suspect excessive flashing might have caused/triggered it, dunno) so make sammy change the board on this bad boy, hey! you might get 16gb inbuilt memory as a bonus!

hmm... i hope not. also i dont really flash anything unless updates are available on the ics theme. well now that you mentioned it, while i was at the beach like last week, i put my phone on my pocket without screening of (which i always and should do..) and then when i checked back the all my messages and files in the internal sd card were gone.... though the apps are still there and were still on go launcher ex home..... i hope it was just am accidental reset. i want to bring it to the service center im going to get my laptop in at least 2 days! and i want to spend my summer with both of them.
anyway. is wifi working well on poseidon rom with the uc kernel v10? thats the only problem here. my wifi keeps going on and off. crashing the apps that needs wifi whenever i press it. its the same problem with amit cf root kernel when you use poseidon.
Hey guys!
I own a 2 year old Nexus S GT-i9023
It is still a blazing phone and works well. But the only problem i face is EXTREME lag. Like when I flash a new ROM, it'll function perfectly well for like a day or so. But after a few days, apps take so long to load, I wanna push my finger into my eye. Frustrating. Is there any solution for it? Or should I just go back to stock 4.1.2? [If so could someone please direct me to the link? I tried searching didn't get it]
Thank you
PS: List of ROM's I've tried: CM10.1,CM10,Jellyshot,Jellyshot+marmite,Jellyshot+matr1x,Paranoidandroid,XenonHD.
I flash so much, if I don't change ROM three times a day I feel incomplete -.-
Currently on CM10. LAAAAAAAAAAAG!

Thanks a lot That seems to have served the cause. I can see my Phone faster already. Bloody facebook uses so much memory O.O
Hey guys, I'm getting some pretty killer lag as well, some times 5 or more seconds just to unlock the screen.
I have been playing around with quite a few different ROMs lately and haven't found a ROM that doesn't lag or doesn't drain the battery like crazy.
I'm kind of a noob when it comes to flashing ROMs and cellphones, so any help would be great. I usually just use ROM Manager to download and flash ROMs for me.
I also don't know if its maybe the apps I run? I use Greenify, Android Assistant, Easy Battery Saver to try to keep things fast and keep the battery going. Is it maybe because my battery saver causes wifi/data to come on when my screen wakes, making a bunch of apps want to update? I thought that might be it, but I don't know a way around it.
If anyone has any suggestions for ROM/Kernel combos that would be very good for extending battery life and still cutting lag to at least 1 or 2 seconds at its worst, would be much appreciated. Also, any suggestions for apps/settings/etc that could help would be great. I was thinking about going back to CM7, because my phone was pretty fast and lasted a while then, but I would kind of like to keep at least most of the features of 4.1.2.
Right now I have:
Baseband Version: I9020
Kernel Version: 3.0.68-Cyanogenmod-g33a9901 [email protected] #14
CM Version: Hellybean-20130311-crespo
Thanks in advance!
I was having the same issues until I wiped EVERYTHING! Just re-flashing ROM did nothing.
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
Then flash everything new again and format SD partition.
Also DO NOT restore a back up, reload all apps new. If you need app data, restore each separately from backup. This will help ensure that bad data is not reintroduced back into system.

Hi,
I have been running Mahdi on my OPO for a couple of weeks now and recently updated it. Since then i seem to have an issue where the lock screen becomes mostly unresponsive. i have to reboot the phone and when it asks if i want to it struggles to acknowledge me hitting the yes button.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks
Random screen on
I was just wondering if there was some way I could stop my phone from randomly turning the screen on in my pocket or when i pick it up? I've turned off double tap to wake and I'm running Mahdi.

Using Mahdi 2.81009/ak65unified
Some issues I have:
clicking hyperlinks will always ask 'select chrome, browser, etc' every single time
holding down the home button for recent apps doesnt always show all the apps that are running and I have to open again to check if they were really closed
screen sometimes flickers drastically and it will be fixed after reboot
connection drops for 30 secs at least after disconnecting wifi (I know this has nothing to do with mahdi though since it doesn't come with a modem)
any help would be appreciated!

So... select chrome and then press always instead of just once.
Why are you closing apps that are running in the background? Android takes care of handling the processes. You're practically "task killering" them and its a bad idea to do that.
Try another kernel.
Modem has nothing to do with wifi, thats all in the kernel. Try another kernel that contains the new wifi driver (e.g. franco or ak)
Update your ROM to 10/13.

Thanks @zephiK.
Yes, I have always clicked 'Always' lol I thought I didn't have to mention the obvious.
I'm closing the apps in the background cuz of my OCD. I know it's similar to task killing them but .. just my thang u know. Ill try to cut it out since you said it's bad but it frees up memory and it's still legit to close a program like that no? Unless you're telling me there's another way to close apps?
I'm still very new to Android; @nicholaschum helped me transitioned from iphone.
Unix/Linux/Android works different than Windows. There is a saying 'unused RAM is wasted RAM'. OK if it goes down to less than 100 MB it might be a bit low (garbage collection is probably not working well), but mainly better not touch it.

Very nice rom! Thank you for it!
Is it possible to change the heads-up blaclist to whitelist? Or maybe user decidable? Like on heads-up xposed module.
I'm used to whitelist on Carbon on a different device. I want to define the 4-5 apps which from I want to receive heads-ups, and from the rest of apps I don't want. With blaclist it is hard to do.
Thanks

After a night, I rebooted my phone in the morning. It entered the rom normally however there is no access to the storage, no cell network, no wifi, clock is set to 1830. All apps installed are there but not working properly with no access to storage and network.
The storage can be accessed in the recovery mode.
Things i have done to try solving the problem:
1. Delete cache and Dalvik in recovery. Reboot. Same.
2. Clean install the mahdi rom. Now it will boot into the page where i can choose language but i cannot do anything. It will reboot itself at that page.

Reflash stock CM11S, it's the best way to fix corrupted partitions. Not just through the recovery, but by doing around 8 to 10 fastboot flash commands according to partition details.

Try this GApps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/hdpi-google-apps-5-1-t3066172
Choose the HDPI (240 DPI) Std:-Gapps
It works! But...
So, I managed to get it working after much trial and error being a complete newbie to the process (some 4 hours or so of labouring to get it working heh..)
But the catch is, the only thing I can't seem to get working is gapps. I've tried a couple of random GApps sources so far, namely PA's Gapps and the CM 12.1 Gapps on the cyanogenmod wiki, both to no avail as they produced errors such as that google play services has stopped working. Google Maps is effectively my lifeline to getting home so I'll have to bring another device with me in the mean time, but I'd prefer my phone to be more than a slick business-only device!
Anybody else finding any luck in installing gapps?
edit: tried the gapps link in the post above, same issue occurs

Do you have any instructions on how to do this?
So far I've tried all of these (not in order) (in CWM recovery):
formatting /system, /data, and /cache,
clearing dalvik cache
wipe data/factory reset
... and flashing the ROM + GApps afterwards, but maybe I'm missing a step?
Which version is more stable for daily use; cm12 or cm12.1?
How can I change DPI with this CM version? I tired Texdroider DPI app, but SU kinda doesn't let it change DPI.

After the exam, when I took the phone out of my pocket, it was warm and the screen was already turned on (??) and the battery was at 80%. I went into the battery stats and it showed the screen had been on for 1 h and 40 mins. Wtf the screen had been on in my pocket for all that time killing battery! Not even sure what happened.. I mean did it keep unlocking itself in my pocket or something? Wat?

Hmmm, I have not experience any kind of issue like that or with battery. Maybe some app or indeed it was unlocking it self.

Well the battery was drained due to the screen being constantly on.. I don't have many apps installed atm.. this phone gets really slow AF if you download too much I should upgrade lol
Black Screen
When i have incoming call , my screen gone black and i cant see who call me and i cant answer them
works perfectly for me - no restarts, runs smoothly, battery life over 1 day without problems (surfing the internet, youtube and music player)
wifi not working after following installation instructions
I installed CM12.1 following the instructions posted here. This is not my first time (I did it with other phones) but this time I must have done something wrong. The wifi does not work and the phone restart every few minutes.
What can I do?
[Edit] looks like I forgot something, after all. I wiped all caches and system but forgot to wipe data. Probably something was wrong with some configuration. Now wifi is working and the phone is not restarting.
i like the rom very much and used 12.0 long time and before that CoolDevelopment's rom
but id like to install the official rom out of curiosity but the boot stops at the samsung logo flashing
ideas?
thanks

I have the same problem. I have searched and searched but been unable to find any way to access Recents. Long pressing the home key does nothing. I also tried the Recently app but could not figure out how to get it to activate.
pretty awesome !
after flashing "Slim-skyrocket-5.1.1.alpha.0.3-UNOFFICIAL-20150607-0208" I keep asking myself "why my battery is not draining" It's like -0.5%/hr during deep sleep.

Not sure. Maybe stock video player doesn't support that video format.
Try MX player and tell me which video format is not working? Oh boy ! ?

SlimLP - Skyrocket
Hey everyone. I am currently 20150607-0208 version. I am thinking of switching to the latest version with the F2FS support. I need guidance on how to install this specific rom. Just need to confirm few things. So i wipe date and cache to F2FS and i wipe dalvik cache and system in the normal way we usually do? Then I flash rom and gapps? Thats it?

Format /data and /cache to F2FS. Then wipe /system and /dalvik (yes, clean flash). Make sure you make a nandroid backup first. This will also preserve your current file system type for data and cache for when you restore, if needed.
You might want to wait until my next build is posted to try it. There will be a bunch of things fixed as well as new features.
Help needed. Strange problem
Hey. I really need help here. I have been using SlimLP for quite sometime now. No issues no nothing. I was using the latest rom with the F2FS support. I was using it and suddenly it flashed, vibrated and kept on vibrating. I did not pay much attention. Took the battery out, reinserted it and it worked fine. I was already thinking of trying Paranoid so i had already put the respective rom and gapps in the phone.
So i changed the rom and clean flashed Paranoid. It worked fine for a few days but i started experiencing the same problem again. I use the phone, it flashes, vibrates and then keeps on vibrating. I try pressing power button so it shows samsung logo, starts to boot as i can see the paranoid icon, but breaks in between and the same thing happens. But sometimes its able to boot properly. I use the phone for a while and same thing happens.
I clean flashed this rom again. Same issue. Clean flashed the previous Slim rom. same issue. Restored backup from slim rom. same issue. Restored backup of my stock jellybean. Same issue! Please help!
My phone is currently sitting idle and i am not experiencing any issue. As soon as i use it, after a minute or two i face this problem. Please help.
Help with google
Thank you very much for the hard work and do appreciate it all.
Am coming from a different rom which is also 5.1 and am using latest philz touch recovery. I cleared everything including dalvik cache and
flashed both rom and gapps and the phone boots up successfully. Am actually enjoying the rom but my problem is i can't setup google account on the rom. It force closes during the account setup process.
Re-flashed the rom successfully, as the first time around it did not ask me Language or Google account info and Google Play services kept crashing endlessly. Maybe I just needed to flash it again, or maybe the Gapps package I got didn't agree with my setup (now using Slim_zero_gapps.BETA.5.1.build.0.x-20150820 and it seems to work ok). Thanks for the upload! I have been looking for a good custom rom to run my i727 until I upgrade to a newer phone. The BEST rom I had before was SlimKat Official for Skyrocket, but it's a bit outdated don't you think? It's very nice to see a new interface; really brings a freshness and new appreciation for my old hardware. Thank you.
Also, I am kind of curious about how to view currently opened apps. I used to hold the home button to do this so I could cycle through and kill them if needed.
-Edit- August 26, 2015 2:18 P.M. CST I really love how smooth this rom is at times, but other times it gets laggy and crashes apps after a couple moments for no reason. I did use a custom PIT file to re-partition my i727 so may be other variables as well. Has anyone else had apps crash on them?
no audio through headphone jack
i have done a clean flash and install of the new build of slimlp (nospamdan) having issues with audio coming from headphone jack when jack is removed all sound disappears music wise
