Title says it. Flashed the Trinity kernel today and the settings won't stick. The governor does, but every time I turn the screen off and back on, the max frequency is reset. I am running CM10.
So. Two questions.
1) Has anyone had a similar problem? Can this be fixed?
2) If not, can I go back to the stock kernel? Or, will restoring a Nandroid backup work? I made one just today so it wouldn't be a big deal, just want to know if it works.
Thank you
Edit: I ditched Trinity and flashed the Motley kernel instead. Settings are sticking. Problem solved!

I've flashed new JVP into my SGS using ramad's deodexed firmware with CF-root kernel and JKay skin. Then I restored my backup and used it for some time. After one reboot I noticed that it suddenly got much slower than it was - before I got quadrant score of 1900-2200, after it dropped to ~1300. After some investigation I found that there must be some problem with my settings - if I use some "clean" database (com.android.providers.settings) it works like it should but with my backed'up data it works fine only if I boot it with bluetooth turned off.
Can someone suggest what could have I done wrong?
Try to re-flash and use the stock Kernel, then see if you get the same problem. If not then only restore /data applications (Never restore /system applications) and see again if you get a problem, and so on..
You need to find out at which stage you get the problem, this could help isolating the problem so you can help finding a solution by finding out what cause it... in the way you are asking every member will give you a theory, try to find out by your self, devices are all different and so are the applications/settings/Kernels are all different on members devices.
Sorry for beeing so vague on the first post.
I did tried to isolate the problem - reflashed everything at least 10 times with different configurations. The result is I can show the exact moment when after restoring the backup phone starts to act weird.
Unfortunately the problem probably lies somewhere in my old settings as restoring only this one piece into the clean firmware (or - as my steps were - after flashing cf-root and installing theme) doesn't activate the slowdown. Unfortunately I also did a mostly clean restore - restoring only things I really need (contacts, bookmarks etc.) and only a few applications with data and for the rest of backup only applications. It didn't help.
Today I'll try another way - I'll reflash it and then restore only applications without any data and see what would happen.
Ok. So I did another round and for now I'm satisfied with the result.
What I did was:
1. reflash deodexed JVP
2. restored my user apps with data from backup
3. restored pieces of system data and configured missing settings
it worked fine up until this point
4. reflashed to CF-Root kernel - it seems this broke my setup. I'm certain that there must be something in my config/installation that when added to CF-Root and bluetooth introduces slowdowns.
5. as I needed my theme I just flashed it using CF-Root's CWM and after that I reflashed back to the stock kernel - everything returned to normal - quadrant score was back up at ~1300 (from around 700 with CF)
6. as I also wanted to convert to ext4 I flashed a Speedode kernel and I test the speed - it showed stable 1300
7. converted to ext4 using SpeedMod's CWM then rebooted and retested with quadrant - it holds fine at around 2200.
This closes the case for me for now

Good work, and you did it all on your own
Now you know what was the cause for your trouble and how to deal with such problem next time.
For others that find themselves in a similar predicament, but want an alternative method (or workaround), then keep reading.
I too am using Ramad's deodexed Rom's with CF-Root & have similar problems.
Ramad, I know it's not your Roms.
There is definitely something flaky after flashing CF-Root (no disrespect to Chainfire) , as I can replicate the faults again & again & again, with only the deodexed Rom & CF-Root, APN & WiFi setup. No user apps or anything else on the phone at this stage.
Certain problems then arise (lag is often noticed first) after the phone is restarted while ever WiFi & BT are both turned on prior to restarting the phone.
See my posts in the CF-Root thread here (Posts #2151 & #2152) which lists a few other problems which arise after flashing CF-Root, along with my workaround in post #2152.
It'd be great if Chainfire was able to get this issue fixed, as a workaround is never as good as a permanent fix.
If anyone found my workaround worked for them, feedback is definitely welcome.
hello all,
i have updated to 2.3.4 jvp from js3 telenor
all is fine, battery usage is much much better, no laggs, and no FC/FR..
i have turned on the bluetooth once set the name, and turned it off....
after i rooted and brought backups back,i cant use BT anymore. it just stands and turning on for a min or two, and than goes to TURNED OFF state...
update on the issue: i have recently de-odexed the phone, and the BT worked fine again for the first 3-4 initializations and than it hangs again in the way described above.
any help? any ideas?
i'm willing to try loading a custom modem or kernel to the phone to see if it helps, but as im new to this and didnt quite find the info im looking for. browsing for hours, (and i did ask in some threads to no avail.)
Will loading a custom modem/kernel wipe my data?
is there a solution perhaps?
ty again in advance
Edit: sorry wrong post
You're probably using a custum kernel.
Revert to stock kernel and BT will work
Or you can try my modified stock kernel where BT works fine
i think it is a custom kernel, as it came with CWM. Could it be the CWM thats causing this ?
is ur modified stock kernel rooted?
i would hate to loose cwm backup functions , can it be installed after?
and most important question: Will loading a custom modem/kernel wipe my data?
EDIT: just saw this in CWM
Current Kernel: CF-Root 3.7
There have been problems with CF-Root kernel and Bluetooth. I had the exact same thing.
Take a look at the CF-Root thread
Updated to official 2.3.5 rooted, added back the pink screen, not done much else except installed a few apps.
Getting random reboots while phone is sleeping. Never happens while actively using phone. My phone will be on my desk and next thing I know it restarts.
Anybody else have this problem or found a solution?
I need to find out if it is the rom or something else causing the problem so I can start to troubleshoot it.

Turn OFF wifi when you're not using the phone. problem solved
If not work try this :
Goto CPU menu -> smartass v2 and make low and high cpu speed settings to 1 ghz.
This will also increase Battery life and must fix random rebooting.
Other way is clear caches and install rom again.
Loureiro:
I'll try turning off the wifi. It sounds like a highly likely solution since: 1) I've only seen my phone at home 2) I always turn wifi on at home.
Is there a specific reason why wifi is causing reboots? Maybe something I can find a fix for?
technogod:
Don't have custom kernal installed, so I can't alter the CPU parameters. Wanted to make sure the phone was stable at stock before changing the kernal.
Speaking of which, what's the most stable kernal for overclocking the 2.3 stock rom?
I'll try clearing the caches as well.
Thanks.
The wifi bug is known fault with the .35 kernel found in the official upgrade. hopefully it will be fixed next week fingers and toes crossed. I am not sure if any of the kernel dev's have found a fix yet.
Without cpu parameters, only way i am found that : clear three caches with clockwork and reinstall your rom. It's working on stock roms or custom roms. I think, this is not rom problem. There is different something. Cache clearing solves problem. Resetting problem started on my phone when i start to try other roms.
I am using miui 2.2.3 now and i will setup 2.2.10 version today. While using stock rom, i have some resetting problem. But now, my phone working without self-reset.
Hey guys, I've had my transformer for just under a year and love it to death, but for the last couple of days it has been giving me hell! I was running ARHD 3.4.1 with Guevor's ICS kernel (can't remember version, either 19.4, 20 or 21). Anyway, all was well until I changed to ARHD 3.5.1 and switched to raymanfx's harmony kernel to try it out. I couldn't get my videos to play on mxplayer, FC's on apps, random freezes and tablet kept randomly rebooting. So I reflashed ARHD 3.5.1 again, same, reflashed guevor kernel, same, updated CWM to Rogue XM Touch Recovery v1.5.0-R1, same. Finally used this method: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/update-and-restore-eee-pad-transformer-to-stock-ice-cream-sandwich/ to flash back to stock, no root, no nothing annnnnd... same! Same issues no matter what I try. So my question is, with a few weeks of ASUS global warranty left (bought it in HK so I can't take it back to 'shop') can/should I send it back now that it's flashed back to stock without them finding out I rooted it? Or is there something I'm missing that you guys can think of. Please let me know asap in case I do need to send it back. Thanks in advance. Oh and let me know if you need more info
Maybe a stupid question...
Did you do a factory reset in between flashing the different roms and kernels? Full factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik?
Not a stupid question at all, but yes, I tried all three

I can't think of anything else causing that behaviour. Restoring apps, data and system data with Titanium has been a source of trouble for me in he past. Restoring setCPU with profiles that don't work well with the new kernel for example. But I guess that's not the case here. At least stock ROM should be working.
Sorry, maybe someone else has another idea.
When I got my LG G2 and had used it for a little while, I noticed some lag and so I researched it. Found out that the interactive governor might help. Rooted the phone, proceeded to install trickster mod and changed the governor to interactive. Actually did help!
But for some reason changed governor back to ondemand and now every time I change it to interactive, the phone just restarts and returns to ondemand. I don't reboot it manually. It freezes and restarts.
Anyone else facing the same issue? Anyone know what's going on? Tried installing busybox on rails to make sure everything was okay. Did have Xposed installed before so maybe there was a conflict with that? I wiped everything using the stock recovery and tried it again but didn't take even then.
Need help. Hate the lag
Install dorimanx kernel and forget about lag
