First of all wrong forum, either put this in the phiremod thread, or in general or somewhere else besides development, Do not make a thread in Development unless you are developing something.
Second of all, did you load anything new before you went to sleep, did you make any changes?
Hardware rarely just stops working....
Airplane mode. Check that out.

I had this happen to me twice with CM7, the only way I was ever able to fix it was by doing a full wipe and re-flashing the rom. It was not pleasant but it was the only thing that consistently fixed the problem. To make it a little less painful in the future try using the My Backup Root app from the market.

Hey nemith, thanks and thanks for all the great work you've done and are doing!
Yes, I know Airplane mode is broken, perhaps I should have been more elaborate in response to the OP in asking him to "Check that out.", meaning search. I'm guessing he inadvertently touched the setting and spazzed his wifi and if he had spent a sec to search wi-fi problems he would have found his answer and perhaps dug into settings.db and fixed it.
Then again, it might be easier for him to just re-flash.
I've had the exact same problem with CM7 stable 7.0.2.
Although it automagically disappeared when I deleted my remembered networks and all available networks showed up then.
thanks it got fix by its self then it came back after another week when i turned off wifi to save battery then i tried the airplane mode thing and then came back and it worked agian so ill just not ever turn off my wifi and get that my back up root incase i have to re flash CM7
I seem to be having the same issue with my NC, I just recovered into clockworkmod, fixed permissions, wiped the cache, then wiped the dalvik cache, then went into my wifi, "forgot" a hotspot and that solved it. It started scanning again; No reinstalling or rerooting required.
I'm having some serious issues with my phone. This morning the battery was suddenly drained completely, don’t know why yet. Then after charging the phone a bit and rebooting it, it constantly goes into driving mode and starting the voice command application. The most strange thing however is that when I choose to power off the phone, it shuts down but then automatically reboots.
I know I should try factory reset, but anyone else had this problem?
(I have original firmware and the phone isn't rooted)
EDIT:
Doing a hard reset seems to have solved the problem.
Maybe your power button is broken (constantly pressed)? Did the phone get wet?
I have not heard of this. I've heard of bootloops and the phone rebooting when trying to power off but thats usually due to custom roms and people flashing over other custom roms which causes conflict. I think factory reset may be the only option. However, with the Galaxy S there used to be a way to get into safe mode. I beleive you'd hit the menu button as soon as you saw the Galaxy S boot logo. I haven't heard of a safe mode yet for SGS2 but perhaps someone can confirm if its available in this model?
If you can still get into settings of the phone when its on, I'd try going into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications and clearning data for voice commands
It almost seems as though your phone is registering home button being clicked thereby turning voice mode on and also turning it back on after a power off.

Hi,
I was have exactly same problem, reset don't resolve my issue.
Solution was to replace my phone.
Thanks for the help, gonna try factory reset first. But this doesn't look like a software problem, so probably gonna need to replace it

Well this is a strange problem. Is it possible a bread crumb got under your buttons? Or some case is so tight it is pressing on some buttons?
Don't have a case around it, but the power button isn't stuck I think because wouldn't the menu for shutting down the phone etc. appaer constantly? And if it's something under the buttons then it is just bad design, had the phone only a couple of weeks.

I had the same problem mate. And that was exactly what I thought, I actually started a thread on this problem about 2 weeks ago. Was really strange, people told me to take it back. But What I did was factory reset on the phone. Which still didn't completely solve my problem. So I left the battery out the phone over night. The most annoying thing was, the screen kept turning on, like something was being pressed, can't have been the middle button, because the menu would have come up, it didn't do that. And then to make matters worse the tap to speak driving mode kept coming up.
I then took out the battery and left it out over night. Put it back in, in the morning. Charged it up. Didn't do it again.
Hope that helps. Try it.
Ok thanks, I will try it. It is really a strange problem as you say. After the factory reset the problem showed up again but not as often as before. Also after upgrading to latest firmware today, according to the battery monitor android OS is using 45%, that looks really strange to me.
Hi Guys,
i got freezes when i charge it overnight (its connected to the original charger the whole night). I only can do a hard reset to use my device again because the touch-screen doesnt work then. This is very annoying because i use my device with Alarm to get up in the morning.
I already did a few clean installs (Cyanogenod Snapshots and Danvdh's Google Edition), wiped all caches and formated all data and caches aswell. I still got freezes. I get them from waking up my device (mostly in the morning between 5-6 am). All i see is a exclamation mark when i turn on the display. Then its frozen and i cant anything.
I already tried a few Modems and Kernels to test, but still freezes...
I use Modem I9505XXUGNK4 atm.
Any ideas ??? I really Need help with this !!!
Thanks

Have you tried the new 5.0 gpe from danvh? There was an issue with the charging animation and reboots.
yes, i got Dan's 5.0 gpe at the moment 12.17.2014
Dumb question, did you clear /system in between flashes as well?
Yes, i formated System and Cache + i wiped everything too
You should flash the latest stock firmware and see if the issue persists. If yes, try a different charger. If the problem still persists, I think it's a hardware problem. Probably battery or motherboard.
The Problem is only between 5-6 am. The whole day i got no Problems Should be a Problem with my Router maybe ?
i got no resets in my Settings there. maybe my Provider is doing a reset every day between 5-6 am and my device freezes then. i could try airplane mode too to test, right ?
I bought a new charger and battery today (both original). Maybe thats the problem.
i got News guys, i turned off wifi overnight an didnt plugged the charger to my device this night. No freeze !!! Yay !!!
So it only could be, charger, battery or Wifi, right ?
ok, i had a freeze at work a while ago. but i got no wifi or charger there... now i dont know what to do
Does it behave like this?:
You pick up the phone (it is in deepsleep),try to turn the screen on,it goes on,you try to unlock the screen and it just stops reacting to anything and turns the screen off after 20-30seconds?

i had the same problem,the only way to get rid of it is to send it in/get the motherboard replaced.this is faulty hardware,not a software problem
Damn, but i already got know activated. i dont get one for free Its about 1 and a half year old. The problem was solved a few snapshots form cm earlier and its only between 5-6 am. do you think its really a mainboard problem ?

how was your battery-lifetime with that build?
can`t help you with that,hope you have luck and fix it
Same problem
Hy people, i have the same problem, but is not a specific hour when it freez, yesterday i picked up the phone and when i unlocked the screen, it freezed, but i don.t wait 30sec, i just lock/unlock it again and it work fine. The other problem was overheating..
and randomly restarting but i think i fixed it with a factory reset. What i want to tell now is that i installed "Root booster" before all these problemsc ocured. After it played with the kernel, do you all thing it might not restored the original settings? My phone is randomly heating sice i installed that **** on it...(even if i do factory reset)
Ps: i have a stock kernel/gt_505
Or the battery is guilty? It's draing pretty fast, after a day of use i put it to charge
(Solved)

Hy, i haved the same problem, but what i did yesterday solved that. I hope this steps will help you:
1. Enter in Recovery Mode and select wipe data/factory reset
2. Clear cache partition
3. Go in Settings/More/App Manager and search for Touchwiz Home
4. Force stop then Clear data
5. Withouth exit from settings, restart your phone
6. When phone is on, screen will be black and will ask you witch program you wanna use, select Touchwiz home then press "always"
After this steps, i solved the problem for my phone, but another thing i done after that is delete all knox files with Titanium backup.
I hope this steps myght help you.
Thanks guys, but i got a nexus 5 now. Bye Samsung. Thanks anyway for help.
Ever since I installed 5.0 on my Nexus 10 I've been having a problem where if the screen gets turned off, wifi will shutoff, which is great for saving battery but not for downloading a couple of Gigs of comics while I sleep. I have the option set to never turn off wifi when sleeping, but it still does, I've toggled it on and off and rebooted with no fixes. When 5.1 came out I did a complete wipe of everything, all my personal data, downloads, everything back to factory except with the 5.1 image. Thought that might help, but I still have the same problem.
I've always run Stock on my Nexus 10, never installed any ROMs, was briefly rooted, but that was a year or so ago and didn't' feel the need to re-root after an update.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this or what I should check?
Thanks,
Andrew
My apologies I realized I forgot to put the [Q] in my title and I am unable to edit the title of the post.
Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this?

This is strange, I've never had this problem on stock. Are you sure you wiped /data? A full factory reset through twrp should take care of it. If that doesn't work, you could try another ROM. I've been using Chroma 5.1.1 on my Nexus 10, and it's beautiful.

I'm not using any ROM. This is stock. The one time I wiped out was using the built in factory reset.
Is you Nexus plugged into power while it is asleep. If mine is plugged into the charger wifi stays on even if the tablet screen is dark but the tablet is still operating. If it is running on batteries wifi will turn off when the tablet goes to sleep and reduced power mode is activated.

Doesn't matter if it is plugged in or not. And it is set to never sleep WIFI. So it should't matter.
I am having the same problem with a Nexus 10 I just picked up. Its 100% stock and came with 4.2. I upgraded it last night and it was downloading the updates with the screen off, but now I'm on 5.1.1 and the wifi turns off a few seconds after the screen even though it's set to always on.
Hi there, I had my phone for about 5 or 6 months where it was fine till recently.
The problem was that I am unable to turn the wifi on. in the main settings the slider is greyed out and a text is on screen saying turning on WIFI but it does not. it does not even show the list of networks. it quick settings it shows as searching but nothing is listed.
in the about phone settings it shows the mac address to be 02:00:00:00:00:00.
This occurred a few days ago but no new software was installed the most recent being a week before to the April security update.
I have tried multiple things such as turning on the airplane mode then off, switching phone on or off, safe mode, factory reset, wiping the cache, taking the sim out.
There has been instances where I am able to connect to a wifi network but it does not last long (few mins) except when taking the sim out which lasted about half a day. (tried again but did not work)
My phone is not rooted and has the stock rom.
There has been some research on this matter where people have done something with the presist(I think that is what it is call) folder but there was no result on it so I have not tried it due to wanted to keep the phone unrooted due to warranty concerns.
I would love some solutions in figuring out this problem.
Thank you for your time.
