I'm running Fresh 2.1.2 and I've been having a ton of issues with lag that I never had on Fresh 2.0d. Are people having lag issues on the official 2.1 release too? I've tried to check and see what's running when the lag is happening, and it seems consistent with an app updating itself. I'll go to the list and see that mail has 5% or twitter (not peep) is updating and at 10% or something, but nothing is ever over that and it's always just one or two apps like that and the phone is unusable until they are done.
Now I'm noticing that if my phone is just sitting on the desk and someone calls, it takes a good 5 seconds for the phone to display the screen that tells me who it is. It vibrates, waits a couple seconds, then the default ring tone starts to play, then a couple seconds later the display comes up that says who is calling.
It generally is running like ass. It did not do this before on Fresh 2.0d. I was running apps2sd on that as well as on here. It seems that the only difference between fresh 2.0d and 2.1.2 is the fact that it's now the official released rom. Are people with the official rom having the same issues??? If they are, I'm going back to 2.0d. It ran completely fine. This is starting to get on my nerves and is not the experience I want....

Just go back to 2.0d. I ran 2.1.2 for a very short time and I couldn't take it anymore plus you know that the sprint 2.1 has confirmed issues one of which is the sdcard
Where can I get the original 2.0d now? Can someone post a download link to it please? I'm also experiencing a lot of lag these days as well..
Here's a quote from Fresh Toast v2.1:
A note on slowness: It is coming to our attention that there are several bugs in the latest Sprint 2.27.651.5 RUU which is the official Sprint release. It doesn't surprise me that there are bugs considering our original 1.5 had plenty. The main one that we have come across is a service called com.htc.bg that sucks up your processor. This causes that phone to become extremely laggy and overall run like crap. Go read my new FAQ: Why is my Android phone running so slow? to see what you can do about it, and to report the issue. Keep in mind that this would be a Sprint bug and not Fresh Rom / Fresh Toast.

I think this is why we're experiencing lag, hopefully someone can find a fix for it..
EDIT: Nvm, found the link, here it is:

I think you guys are right. I've been toying with the idea of using Fresh Toast to get overclocking, but 2.0d just worked for me and I had no real issues other than keyboard lag.
Are you guys running w/ Auto Killer (or alternative TK) or no? I've been running FT w/ AutoKiller set to Extreme, with max time between boots having been about 48 hours, and haven't seen any significant slowdown the longer the phone's been on..
My phone decides to reboot and or power off randomly and for no apparent reason. It's just sitting on my desk. Anyone else experience this issue?
Guess i'll try a reflash if this continues.
yep

Not very often but very annoying if you use your phone as alarm clock.
I honestly haven't experienced either with my SGS. I can sympathise though as my Milestone used to do both way too often (hence swapping for the SGS).
It hasn't happened to me.. It might be running a software or hardware watchdog to reboot automatically when the system panics. Ensure you are using a stock rom, otherwise, it may even be faulty hardware
Would happen several times a day on my Motorola Milestone so I sent it back and got the SGS. Totally rock solid. Only time it reboots is when I want it to. Maybe you have a rogue app?
you guys have any changes to the CPU speed whatsoever, task killers and all? i once used SetCPU and it sort of sent me into a random spree of reboots and such.
i remember rebooting, scanning 10gb of media, auto-reboot... repeat 4 times. lol.
Well it hasnt happened since yesterday. I will flash to froyo today just in case it was software related

did you see the topic on the DEV forum about Resetting the battery status?
seems like the phone (not the battery) keeps a wrong battery status if you flashed it a few times
so even when you still have battery, the phone "thinks" it rans out of juice and it does that thing you mentioned

Link would be helpful, because I can't find that topic.
WOW, old thread that got dug up, for me it was just a software issue. I flashed many roms since and haven't had it happen again. I never reset my battery stats but I think clockwork mod recovery has an option to do that so most of the custom roms make that easy.
I also had random reboots and power-offs, on average once every 2 weeks, running on stock-firmware JF3. Problems did not go away when I manually upgraded to JM2. Problems stopped when I upgraded to Froyo...
Ok so I did a whole bunch of ish to my phone yesterday and now my market is force closing every time it goes to install something.
I was having a similar issue....was running Dirrk's LV1200. Switched to LV1100 and the problem seems to have resolved itself. Not sure if you have installed one of the voodoo kernels, but if so, you may want to try a different one. Of course, I haven't had the LV1100 installed for very long yet..who knows!
yea i have jt's 1.2 installed.. i'll try his 1.0
ok that worked. thanks a lot for speaking up man. I was going crazy cause i did alot of stuff to my phone yesterday so i had no clue which was the culprit
I have attempted searching a couple of times but I haven't had any luck with this one.
My problem is that my phone slows down drastically and when I open System Panel, I see that my CPU usage is maxed out and android.process.media seems to be the culprit. I cannot figure out what is causing this. Several times I thought I'd solved the problem, only to have it pop up again after a reboot. Fix Permissions does nothing.
This problem has happened with both Loki and Bionix so it does not seem to be ROM specific. Is anyone else having this problem? Any solutions?
I would try a couple of things to check out. Try flashing the Axura or the Trigger 2.1. The reason for this is they have a different source for some of the media apps. That way you can eliminate that it truly is not a rom issue. Also, make sure you reflash back to stock and check the repartition before flashing the JFD2.1 rom. That way, there are no ghosts or other digital crud left. The other thing (which is a long shot) try someone else's sim card and check that it is not a network quirk or sim quirk... this should not be an issue but worth the check.......... stranger things have happened. It sounds like media is constantly playing or looping in the background.......almost like a virus........weird. Anyway, see if any of these things help you...........
My phone will randomly shut down and will not power back on unless I pull the battery, I have 2 batteries and it happens with either one. It does not shut down while on charger/dock. I have wiped the phone multiple times with odin, I've used several different roms/kernals,same results every time. Just curious if anyone else has been experiencing this issue.
I've been experiencing this after I went to eb13 with the custom kernels that are out. But my.phone will either lockup and I have yo pull the battery or it will reboot itself. Never had what happens to u yet.

This has been happening multiple times a day to me. Completely at random. its beginning to become unbearable. My phone will lock up like this about 8-20 times in a day. Someone save meee! hahaha

Permanent sleep
I may have experienced a similar problem, running a DK28 based kernel with both Quantum 2.5 & 2.7 ROM's.
When the phone sleeps and you're not able to wake it, do the 4 buttons at the bottom of the screen still light up? If they do then I have had the same issue. I could only narrow it down to restoring apps+data or putting the phone in sleep while an app is running. Once it was the result of putting the phone in sleep after a FC.
I can only posit that it MAY be an ext4-only ROM related issue, considering I did not have the above situation occur with rfs ROM's or rfs/ext4 dual ROM's. In addition this was only limited to DK28 for me. I was off DI18 <16hrs after I bought the phone. The DK28 gps issue was a non-factor as well, occurred whether gps worked or not.
before updating to 2.2 - I did the DK28 and now the EB13 one - with 2.1 I would have my phone randomly reboot - I would be sitting there and here the music it makes when it starts up but I never turned it off?
other times it would just be turned off, but when I turn it back on the abttery is not low enough to cause it to turn off
all this went away with DK28 2.2 and hasnet happened since I installed EB13 2.2
This happeed to me the other morning. I wasn't able to boot until I reflashed the kernel. Twilight frozen btw.

My first epic would randomly hard power off, even running stock ROMs. If you are running a stock ROM and seeing a hard power off at random, I suggest you go swap the phone. It's just broken.
Ive never had this problem and im on my first and only epic and ive had it since it came out,
Ive been very careful with my epic as it has been great to me, it hates me probaly tho for feeding it stuff while experimenting things that make it spit up FCS,
But my phone has been always working perfect, all the way back to d118.

the buttons don't stay lit, i'm using twilight kernal right now but was happening with genocide kernal too, going back to eclair just to eliminate 2.2, ext4, etc.. to see if it's a hardware issue
First try
dk18 update.zip flash
Restored apps and data with my backup pro root
Random reboots, FC
Second try
Odin to dk18
Wipe x3
Restored apps and data with mybackup pro root
FC, music player force closing (doubletwist, stock and musicmod, poweramp worked though?), fc when trying to change ringtone or notification.
Started reading about others with the same issues and thought data backups were a reoccuring theme. Did a third try tonight and so far so good. Music players working, no force closings, keyboards working correctly, gps lock indoors. Its still early, problems might still popup, thought id share...
Latest froyotempt
Fresh backup with mybackup pro root
Wipe x3
odin eb13 prerooted (ctsy xda forum) same file from attempt 2. Did this x3 as well, read it in a thread somewhere...
backup apps only with mybackup pro root
All attempts were with genocide kernal.
So far so good, none of the previous bugs are apparent, so far... Those of you that are on the fence regarding doing the same, so far its worth the time.

I was thinking back-ups were part of the problem also, so I used odin and started all over from dl18 without restoring any data, same problem still occured
Still messing with my phone, everything that was broken seems to be fixed. Hopefully it stays this way...

That used to happened to me on eclair when I set my setcpu profiles too low when screen off. You wouldn't happen to be using setcpu would you?
actually I am, I have my minimum down to 200 MHz, going to raise it and see if that helps
@400 MHz did it again, trying 800
I'll add to this thread. I seem to be having the same problem and I believe it started when I installed quantum rom... but I'm not sure. The symptoms i had were random reboots, where the screen would shut off and the 4 lights would stay on. Then I would have the sound of lost signal as if my phone rebooted and was starting over. Also, the most recent problem I get is my phone completely shuts off and I need to battery pull to get it to start up, and it loops on the splash screen of my rom. I have tried doing a complete odin wipe and not restoring anything and I believe it is still happening...

Any update?
Also, make sure the governor isn't "powersave". If you have 100-400MHz powersave governor, it still ONLY runs at the lowest speed (100MHz), even if it's 100-400MHz.
Still happening, not on powersave, doesn't matter what settings I have in set cpu. Did a hard reset back to 2.1 and it still happens, bringing it in for repair.
