The weird thing is this that it recognize where I am in maps but it won't get a lock in GPS status I did remove rtb and use voltage control and nothing and also tried pimp my cpu for the GPS configuration and nothing not that I needed badly but when finding an NA meeting that I don't know where the place is I go crazy lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RazzTick:
Hey bilgerryan, love these Project X variations, they are da bomb! Unfortunately I am having a serious problem with SOD lock-ups, or at least that appears to be the problem. On every one of these variations my phone will lock up at random, always when the screen is off, and it will get really hot. The only solution is a battery pull or pressing the power button for about 10 seconds to force reboot it.

This has not happened on your regular builds of Project X or other ROMs. I have tried other CM, AOSP and TW based ROMs and do not have this problem. I don't think it is the ROM or else you would have heard plenty of reports about this but then again I don't understand why this only happens on this ROM. The ROMs I installed were downloaded on a PC and got good checksums. I am in the process of redownloading again just in case. Here is what I have done so far:

1. Tried different batteries.

2. Removed the external SD card.

3. Formatted the internal memory in recovery using the emmc option with no external sd installed.

4. Was using DS Battery Saver but turned it off and then uninstalled it.

5. Installed a stock GB27 and then installed the Project X variant.

6. I read on the forums that some people experiencing this problem was due to a problem with an exchange account configuration or notification problem, however I do not have one. Some also said that this happened with Play Store auto-notifications enabled so I disabled it.

7. Have no tweaks installed after fresh installed.

8. Changed the min and max cpu frequency using Voltage Control from 50/1200 to 200/1000.

9. Disabled VC and changed the min/max frequency in the PegasusQ init.d script to the same values above.

10. Turned the phone off and charged to 100%, then removed the battery for about 3 mins. Reinserted battery and powered on.

In each case I still got the SOD.

As I was writing this I have fresh installed Black and Blue v2 with a completely empty internal memory except with what gets adding during install and no extra apps. The phone froze up again! I want to cry because I love these ROMs but I have run out of things to check as to why this keeps happening only to me apparently. I know this might be off topic for this thread but since it only happens with these particular ROMs I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

I still give you kudos regardless for your work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Move it back to 1200 max, underclocking can cause SOD. Also what lock screen are you using? Thank you for being thorough with your problem. It's all in the details.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RazzTick:
Thanks, I would rather be over than under. I will try upping the max frequency again. I cringe when I see users request help for a problem and only post "my phone keeps freezing" with no details.

OK, just checked the phone as it is right now. In AIO it is set to stock, In Android Settings Screen Lock is set to Swipe, Ripple Effect is checked and in the Choose Your Locks Screen section none of them are currently selected. I always set it to Acer Cloud and that appears to be the default effect at installation. All other lock screen options are left as is after the reinstall.

I hope you are on to something since on the variations I noticed that the LG Optimus Lock Screen is very laggy compared to 3.6 where it is very smooth so I stopped using that one.

I also noticed that when it locks up it is often right after the phone vibrates as if it is sending a notification, upon reboot though there is nothing in the notification bar. Other times I have just pressed the power button to lock it and right afterwards it won't unlock. I can't say for sure which happens more since most times my only inkling that something has happened is feeling something getting hot in my pocket.

Sometimes it makes me fear I have pissed myself. :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Try Galaxy S3 lock screen, a lot of people have had this problem with non stock lock screens... Just trying to eliminate the usual suspects. But yeah, the lock screen is most likely your problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JCompMan:
I've had the SOD a couple weeks ago. My phone had been cool AND hot ( two diff times ), when I had the SOD.

I change VC from 50 / 1300 to 200 / 1300. Got the SOD. Changed to 200 / 1200. I've been working on finding the max. I'm toying with 1000 or 1200. Trial and Error routine.

EDIT: forgot to add, I've been using the S4 Lockscreen. No Tweeks, just flashed the Rom ( 3.6 _______ ) and waited to see what happens.

My $.02 worth
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RazzTick:
Just wanted to let you know so far so good. Never would have thought of the lockscreen as a possible culprit. What happened from 3.6 and the variations? Never happened with those.

Enjoying the flavor of the day.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Just theming, it's a pretty common thing for it to happen to anyone eventually, this device doesn't like non stock lockscreens

How can I use this as my base from the instructions in the OP
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GIGZ1971:
I forgot the lockscreen ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
What don't you understand in the instructions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GIGZ1971:
How to zip the Rom im using after I used missing link to my computer.

I think I understand....I take the barebones zip and unzip it on my computer and add the modified files from my phone to the unzipped version on my computer..correct?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Yes, then after you are done doing that you highlight everything (data, system, preload, Meta-INF, etc) and right click on them and it should give you the option to compress. Hit that and then you have a ROM zip.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GIGZ1971:
Ok thanks how do I add apks like the icons one I have installed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Just drop them in the data/app folder or system/app... Wherever you find them with root explorer (copy them to your sd then transfer to pc). The updater script will take care of the rest.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GIGZ1971:
What about zips like comadose? Or any other mod zips
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
ComaDose is already included. But you just open up the zip and put each file in the folder it is in in the zip (system/etc/init.d for example)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GIGZ1971:
Oh ok thanks. I'm going to build this bad boy then test it out and let you know how it's going. Btw I'm thinking of calling my theme/Rom RedRum:D

Can't believe it's off the first page. Should stay up top this thread..

Ryan, I am in love with your du X 4.2.2 version, have some random fc's with it, but I can't get enough of it. Any chance on some X-tra attention to update this x-traordinary rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
What are you getting random force closes on?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coco1969:
du-X 4.2.2

I believe it doesn't like blasphemy kernel on it. I like to overclock when I can. :) Got the big battery on it so juice is no problem. Get some lock-ups even when it's laying around in idle. I am starting to believe that it's my phone somehow, I can't run any 4.3 aokp. aosp, without running into the same problem, however your X-factory seems to run without problems.. Just weird, still investigating, but starting to believe it's the phone. My spare phone never has any problem on any rom. I do think that running blasphemy 6.x series is giving me problems.. Any other ideas or suggestions? All are welcome.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
You could try the Lightning Zap kernel, it has overclocking
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coco1969:
You know that seems to be more solid/stable kernel. Yes I have tried that a couple of times but I got the feeling that it slowed down the phone, antutu scores seem that way as well, way lower on L-Zap kernel. But I am going to do a fresh start and pay more attention to the kernels... Thanks Ryan
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Eh, take Antutu scores with a grain of salt... I would rather have no lockups than a little more speed personally.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coco1969:
Freakin awesome still....

Project X, still running strong, I have got everything working on it, like gps nav, multi text to and from them iphone drivers, easily transformed with cm 10 themes. Just been amazing last couple of months.. Thanks again Ryan, this has been a home run dude..:good::good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Yes, you can use Missing Link to change the background and the color of the numbers.

Ultima Rom YouTube 5.2.27 is up. Visit the OP and thank the man in if you haven't already, hit the words "Click Here" to download, it'll take you to Kryten2k35's site. I always recommend going straight to the specific landing page for the themed app of choice for full change logs and download instructions.

Note that GMSCore.apk//Google Settings will have to update prior to the app to work, so you'll lose your themed version. I have been on the lookout for an invert of the latest since its release, but no such luck yet.

i remember the Stock kernel, if the rom has busybox then all init.d tweaks are still possible. just no ability to OC, UV etc, but honestly with this device there is no real need, i always set max cpu speed lower than stock anyway (battery) youll obviously still need Mobile Odin, and an EL 26.tar (i still rock EL 29 direct boot, just not for flashing modems ) i may run the stock kernel for a few days, see what gains/ losses occur.

Thanks for the update. I've been wondering how this worked out for you, but work got in the way (clients can be irritating).

As an FYI, I noted earlier that Rom Toolbox updated on the market today, and if you are using it for cpu control it'll eventually seek a re-grant of su permissions. If that happens while in deep sleep, it's bootloop time.

Thought I was dealing with another power button mess, and was considering a new phone way before I was ready.
