Do that in the right ROM thread:

Did you?

wipe:

restore with titanium backup:

reboot after having the issue:

Are you using?

a task killer:

the kernel (boot.img) in the zip or other:

Settings/Performance settings (other than default):

What steps will reproduce the problem?

But the most important thing is this: attach a LOGCAT of the problem.

Q: Ok nice, but I’m noob & I don’t know how to LOGCAT, where can I learn?

A: Here, here or stop being lazy & search in XDA forums.
