[Q] ICS ROM's freezing

Hey everyone,

After trying almost every single ICS ROM available for my O1 P500h, every ROM seems to have the same problem. Although they all run very good, the phone will just hang at random points, but mostly when installing apps. Then requires a hard reset battery pull, or will reset itself after about a minute. Does anybody know of a solution to this? It wouldn't really be that much of a problem if the phone didn't take so long to restart.

I've seen other users report this problem to ROM dev's as well however the problems seemed to be fixed for them by a newer update for the ROM, but even if I use the newest version I still get this problem.

It's not present on CM7, or Jelly Bean (4.1 or 4.2) ROM's as far as the ones that I've tried. I feel like I've tried every single ROM for this phone already. I wanted to move on from CM7 because of it's lack of new-ness compared to ICS and above, and on the other hand Jelly Bean ROM's don't have a lot of internal storage compared to ICS ones, which is a problem for me because I download lots of apps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've tried TWRP, CWM 5.0.2.7 and CWM 6.0.2.7. I've been flashing by formatting everything but sdcard (so boot, system, data, cache, etc.) and then installing zip from sdcard. I tried flashing HepHappy's ROM, IcySnap, XperiaICS and Protos9.

umm

Stock kernel..?
The stock kernels which come with the ROM's, which allow you to overclock the phone to 800-something MHz. I never use the overclock though and keeping it on 600MHz that comes out of the box still has the problem. With GB I'd overclock it to 729 for normal use, and on JB 748 for snappier performance with no bad things happening (well, besides battery life)

Do You Run Plenty Of apps at a time Because that cause Reboot..., The kernel candied(Ice) Give me problem like yours. if there is no solution switch to 4.1.2 AOKP it is stable.
