Thats a good point, yeah I just wanted to get other people on the forums opinions though. I dunno I just think that these threads are being made everyday for a reason, people wanna talk about the roms they like and hear about the roms other people like. Yeah its still down to preference but whats wrong with it? If people start flaming or talking **** about other roms then delete the thread, I really doubt people will do that though. Most people on this forum love flashing roms and want to try them all anyways. So why cant we talk about the ones we currently like!

Edit: And I'm not asking about this because I'm lazy and don't want to look at all the roms myself, I already have and I have flashed quite a few already. And there are lots of cool ones out there that aren't the most popular.

I can't wait to see how long this thread takes to get locked. Individual ROM threads do enough for people to decide on what might or might not work well. Ultimately as you have already been told, you will need to just flash different ROM's because my favorite might not work on your phone.

Hi guys,

Are there any instructions on how to install Navigon USA maps on jail broken windows phone 7. I have searched and read every thread related to it but haven't found clear set of instructions on how to do it. It will be great if someone who has usa maps working, can post the steps. thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] zxcv888:
it is not possible ATM. navigon is officially available only in deutschland and the region is set to EU. so, u could add other EU maps. But, u can't make any maps outside EU work.

Opposite rather. Phone not waking up and essentially shutting off. Goes to sleep, and never wakes up, hence, sleep of death :D:D

I've been having this problem rather frequently as well.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJRocker:
Wheww...I'm relieved it's not just me. Started happening to me yesterday with Blackhole 4.2. I'd press the power button to wake my phone and nothing...just like it's off, except that it won't turn back on until I pull the battery first. Reflashed everything and then it worked most of the day then started doing it again. Also nearly tanked my battery.

Anyway, gonna flash SC and this patch and see how that goes.

Just out of curiosity Adrynalyne...what is causing this that the patch fixes?

Thank you so much this fixed the problem I was having. When my screen would go to sleep it would not wake the phone up until I pressed the power button 3 times and the lock screen would come on....thanks again
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GizmoDroid:
I don't know if this would help anyone but I'm curious to know if it's the case for anyone else:

For those of you who have not applied this patch that are having problems getting your screen to come back on until you pull your battery, does it unlock if you hit the power button and the volume keys a couple times?

When I was having this issue, I just got into the habit of squeezing both sides of my phone (power button and volume up key) twice and my screen would always come back on.

Somehow or another, it seems to have stopped. Not sure what I did to make it stop since I've done so much trying to figure out an unrelated issue. I never looked through the logcat to see what was happening back when I was having the screen lock issue, so now I am curious.

Installed SC 2.4 and the patch, but I'm still getting the sod. This is really driving me crazy now and there seems to be almost no information out there. I ran the stock bloated rom for several days without any problems so I'm just about to the point of going back to it.

For informational purposes, I'm running SC 2.4 with ADW EX Launcher. The only apps I've installed other than what comes with SC are Beautiful Widgets, PowerAmp Pro, Switchpro widget, and HanDbase. I do not have a theme installed.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJRocker:
Doubt it'll work. I've re-flashed the rom and the patch several times and it hasn't worked for me. FWIW, it does the same thing with Blackhole 4.2. The only thing that has worked for me is to go back to the original stock eb01 rom.

Also should probably mention I'm running the non-voodoo version. Anyone have any thoughts as to whether I'd have better luck with the voodoo kernel or would it make things worse.

I've loaded the patch, but haven't had a chance to test if it works.

When it happened to me (SOD), it was only when running on battery, never when the charger was plugged in. I'm just waiting for my batt to charge back up to full, then I'll pull it off of the charger and see if it reoccurs.

Ok, the verdict is in. Pulled the phone off of charger at full battery charge. Running LauncherPro, everything else stopped. Put the phone next to the couch and loaded up "The Social Network" on On-Demand. After the movie was over, picked up the phone, completely non-responsive. One battery pull later, I am booted and at 76% battery remaining.

So, patch did not fix this issue for me. Sorry.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GizmoDroid:
Since everyone is still having this problem, will you confirm that when sleep of death strikes, will it wake after hitting the power and volume keys a few times (instead of resorting to a battery pull)?

I have a longer post earlier in this thread that no one responded to, so I'm still curious to know if the sleep of death issue was what I was having.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frenzifun:
Pressing buttons does not work in any order for me. Battery pull is the only way. Also, someone told me they text me at a certain time. And at that time my phone had the whole sod thing going on. and I never got the text, ever. So if your phone is sitting sod for a while and you're in the middle of a text convo or a few. Don't be mad at your friends. Completely not their faults. But please find Way to stop this, its ruining

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJRocker:
Last night, I reflashed Blackhole 4.2 without the boot animation kernel. Everything seemed fine until this morning after I watched a video through media hub. SOD on the next wakeup. I know that the first time it happened to me was right after listening to music in Poweramp with headphones and not plugged in. Other than that time, I only listen to music from my phone when it's in the OEM car dock and plugged in (using aux audio out). Also, one of the times I was able to recover without rebooting and checked battery usage, the media process was unusually high. So I'm wondering if this is related to media usage somehow...it doesn't seem to be a problem when the phone is plugged in.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JuniorBevins:
I had the patch and it seems to work fine with me. It seems to sound related to the media, so I'll place my head in the guilltine and play a video to see what happens. I have been having some issues with text messaging too, don't know if this has anything to do with the setup yet or not. Seems to only affect a few phone numbers, but it may also be a different thread for a different time.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustinb17:
Flashed SC 2.4 Voodoo And immediately started getting this Sleep of Death. It's my wifes phone so I ended up flashing the full bloated EB01 ROM through Odin just hoping to remedy the problem.

But this Sleep of Death is VERY present on the stock EB01. I never disabled voodoo or anything before flashing through Odin and wonder if maybe that's my problem.

Before flashing SC2.4 I was running the debloated EB01 with no problems that was also flashed through Odin about a week ago.

The fact that I was running a version of EB01 with no problems before flashing SC 2.4 gives me hope that I can stay with EB01 but I really need to fix this as it's my wifes phone.

Any help or advice would be GREATLY appreciated.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJRocker:
Well, I had the SOD again this morning at work, so I went ahead and flashed the Superdark theme. Guess what, I've done everything that I've done before that would reliably bring on the SOD and nothing. I haven't had an SOD since I flashed Superdark. I have a couple of theories why that might have cured it.

I'm using SD v. 1 since it was already on my SD card. I had forgotten until this morning that I was having issues with clock lag just before the SOD's set in. Anyway, the SOD first surfaced after I changed from Superdark to Nextang and after I installed my clock widget on my homescreen. It seems like I'd get an SOD every time I flashed a rom or theme and put a clock widget on the main screen (I've used several different ones, including BW and minimalistic text). So, I reflashed Superdark this morning and put Simi clock on the homescreen. The one thing unique about Superdark compared to the other themes I've flashed is that it has no clock in the status bar. I'm wondering if maybe running Superdark initially (the first theme I installed with SC2.4) and then changing to a theme with a clock in the status bar might have introduced some oddities. It's entirely possible that it's just a coincidence, but my SOD issue seems to have disappeared now that I've gone back to Superdark. I should probably add that I also did a *228 and rebooted twice after that.

In summary, possible things I've done that might have caused SOD:

1. Possible clock or weather widget updating issue?

2. Something specifically tied to themes or lack of theme?

3. I was also using rotary lock unlock (5 lock mod)-Superdark version I'm using doesn't have 5 lock

4. Needed to reprogram towers (*228)?

5. Need to quit flash raping my phone...lol.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frenzifun:
so i sortve found a solution...

i installed sc2.3 and SOD started after a few days... nonstop! i then downloaded 2.4 through clockwork still on DL09 and still got SOD.... i thought maybe i should be running EB01 baseband and built together. and so i odin'd jts superclean full package.... next thing you know... Moreeee SOD... not giving up i odin'd deodexed and debloated full package annnnddddddddddddddddddd walllllaaa!!! no more SOD

so my final solution which worked was to odin debloated and deodexed full package from here : http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html

and i havent tried downloading any roms or themes or anything. just download launcher ex and beautiful widgets and thats it for now... hopefully this whole SOB SOD thing gets fixed =\

nonetheless everybody has been doing a great job so far!!! thank youu!

i hope my method helps
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gujupmp88:
I've been reading a lot about the SOD and the clock not syncing. not sure why, but i'm not having either problem. i actually never had any of the problems and i've been using superclean since eb01 came out and when dl30 was out too. so i cant say that it is a universal eb01 thing, because i honestly never even knew about those problems until a little while ago when i came back on this site. maybe there is an app or some other reason why this is happening.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJRocker:
Well, for me, the SoD went away when I stopped using Beautiful Widgets. I can reliably reintroduce it by installing BW and putting a widget on my homescreen. Goes away after I uninstall and reboot twice. I have no idea why...maybe something with the weather updating. BTW, I use Simi clock with no problems (No weather or battery, just clock). Might I suggest experimenting with any similar programs you might be using. Currently running SC2.6 NV, Superdark v3 theme, no clock. Haven't had an SOD since I flashed to 2.6 a few days ago (heavy usage).

Not to hijack the thread, but I'm seeing some posts about stable EB builds with no SOD/ Battery life issues.

I've been deciding which EB is the best for me to try and I don't need a quadrant score of 80 ba-zillion, so the stable stock debloated one seems to be the way to go, I just don't know which one is the latest and most stable.

How are we doing with SOD issues?

I installed 2.6 voodoo from deodexed EB01 Friday. Phone just died on me after about 30 minutes (sleep of death I think). Had to pull battery. Happened again 30 minutes later. I disabled lagfix (just first option in CWR, not system, etc), reboot and got stuck on samsung logo.

Had to odin DI01 and get back to deodexed EB01.

Only thing I changed was freeze launcher and use launcherpro that was saved via TiB. Also restored user apps via TiB.

Any ideas cause I loved the speed and battery I was getting? Just couldn't have it keep turning off when nothing would work except battery pull.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JuniorBevins:
reisb, welcome to the club ;)

From what i'm getting is that no one knows what is going on with it right now. But some of the things you said do throw up red flags and I'll state them out.

Some were solved by using the non-voodoo kernel and that worked (didn't for me)

Some also soved it by NOT using TiB to restore the apps, but use the Market. I used it restore my apps, but not the data or the system data.

I used the EB01 files from earlier in the post and just themed it. Not as speedy, but it Froyo and it solved the SOD. Seems like the problem may be in the Kernel, but I dunno. I might try another Kernel after I enjoy some SOD free days...
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJRocker:
Well...found out today what's causing it for me. I started getting sod again after I added the Weatherbug Elite widget. Was running fine, then I switched off the gps to save battery while I was at work and sod hit me big time. Seems to be related to location aware apps and turning off gps. For some reason, both BW and WBE seem to insist on finding my current location despite setting location manually in the settings. Anyway, at least for me, once sod sets in the ONLY way to get rid of it is to do a data/cache wipe and reflash the rom. Reflashing the rom without a complete reset doesn't work (at least for me). Once I do that, everything is fine with no sod's. I'm able to use any combination of rom/kernel/theme without problems as long as I don't use any apps that use gps location or turn off the gps while using them. That basically means no widgets or apps that periodically update my location unless I'm willing to leave the gps on all the time.

BTW, you don't have to pull the battery to recover from sod...press and hold all 3 hard buttons (vol up, vol down, and power) until the Samsung logo appears (takes 5-10 seconds), then let go. You'll end up in recovery, with reboot selected by default. Press home and you'll reboot. That'll save you from having to pop the back cover off to pull your battery.
