Hi i'm getting random and frequent freezes, normally on WhatsApp and the last one on uTorrent app.
I've changed from ROMs first on uXylon, then on Illusion, Vanir and now on AOKP.
The phone is very fast and responsive but randomly freezes and i have to remove batt.

Also sometimes won't wake up and also have to remove batt.

I never had that behavior before and i have no idea what to do.

Thanks in advance.

Can you explain better?

-=| Illusion + ASKP |=-
Since you are on ASKP you can adjust the voltage settings. To do that you need to download Trickster Mod from the play store. Then go to the tab specific and scroll down to MPU Voltages. There is a little button with a + and a -. You press that and a pop up will appear. Press the + once and hit apply (big button in the upper right corner). If it is solved you need to set it on boot in the menu.

Your best bet is to look into into the logcat, last_kmsg, and/or dmesg.

Try overvolting a bit.

Before overvolting, OP could try to switch governor/scheduler/network algorythm combo. I couldn't find any quick info on SR' state on this kernel, but it would seem it's on by default, and that should take care of voltages automatically.

I'm having pretty much the same issue...

The phone will go to sleep and then never wake up. I'll get LED notifications, vibrations, sounds, etc that the phone is still working but screen will never turn on until I remove the battery and restart. The phone still works though, music will continue playing and all.

I've formatted everything, complete wipe, factory reset, SD card format, left performance control above minimum, changed lockscreens, wiped all caches, fixed permissions, flashed different ROMs, seem to always end up with the same issue.

Currently with "on demand" on SETCpu, what governor should I look into switching it to? And what would be the overvolt option for me to give it a go as well?

Thanks for all feedback.

Maybe your screen off clock is too low. Check in trickster mod.
