[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
...wow. Uh, well, I already knew this, but have to say it now anyway. You guys are really smart and up on this. I am a a lifelong electronic tech, home entertainment. Stereos, amps, VCR, finally TV and all digital. Computers were a 'natch. Came with the turf. I picked up a Compaq "portable" at a garage sale, $25, one floppy bad, fixed it myself. Mechanical, old grease, clean and lube. A big ass "sewing machine box", flip down the front, 5" green screen, 5¼" floppy drives. DOS, V 4. I read a 2" book, "Running MS DOS 6.0" cover to cover, all hands on learning. Could not put it down. Learned everything from that book and quickly outgrew the green screen sewing machine. So smart phone, tablet were next. I already am a Linux geek so this fit right in. Rooting, working my way up to romming, but did not like the roms out there. Who the hell wants an Android to mock an iPhone? If I wanted a dammed Apple, I would have bought one. But CyanogenMod was *way* cool, better, just what the people want. Could not get any better. I am good at what I do. Dammed good. But greedy bosses, lifting heavy TV sets on my own or forget a paycheck broke my back, disability. 20K a year is well below poverty. Sucks. So I did legitimate PC/network/webmaster for a couple years, state licensed. But disability took away my ability to write receipts. But I got clients who don't trust anyone else. So, I play with phones. It's fun. Micheal and moset get respect. Mutual professional courtesy. Goes with the turf. Nice to meet you fellows.

* Bear in mind this is not a "poor poor pitiful me" message. I just talk too much. Just background, no need to comment on my personal status.

...moving right along. Thank you for that explanation, Micheal. NOW it makes perfect sense. I did not get what moset was talking about. Now I do. He felt me out and got it right. Sweet! It is really an honor to work with you fine gentlemen. USB host hangs, many things pass through the USB host, perfect source for the signal loss but also a very real possibility for the back light hang. Dam, why didn't I grab a dmesg or /var/log/messages, if there is one. Let me use the terminal app to see... God the font is so tiny! Up to 14 Pt. Heh, Superuser let me in, su. Got my # prompt. No, no var directory. Man this is primitive. I don't know where the messages file is. Holy crap, dmesg works though. Could redirect dmesg to file, if Android permits it with a > to text file. Never mind, got Cat Log.

Tell you what, I would like to update but feel obligated to contribute to the cause. I will keep this build and wait for the next lockup, then pull a raw Cat Log and send it to Stargo. Just filter personal info prior to sharing or publishing please. Will it help you maybe? I am glad to do this, even if the results are non-conclusive. Yeah do it or no? I really don't mind. This build, 02/11 is pretty good, stable, but for the occasional black screen lockup. I already gave you all the details of what seems to trigger it. Yeah I will donate the log. But if you really don't want/need it, I will update upon your reply.

Like I said, it is an honor to work with you men. I will wait on your reply to updating on the log request. Don't mind at all but eventually want to update to rid myself of this issue, when it occurs, it is quite irritating. Ever get a phone call and you want to hang up but you just can't? Well that is what this issue causes. Makes some people think I am nuts or something. LOL!

Okay, waiting on you. 'night fellows. :cool:
