Strange ICS bug

I flashed the stock ICS rom with CF root kernel the day they came out and everything went fine. However, there is something strange that happened to me twice so far. At random times and while the phone was locked (lockscreen) when I tried to unlock it and use it the screen goes crazy and it becomes blurry with numbers and lines and colors blending like crazy (reminds me of the matrix film with the numbers running down). This happened to me twice and only with the ICS rom and it goes away with a hard reset.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hard reset?? on ICS?? if im not mistaken thats factory reset??

Switch Off

Switch Off CRT Animation, in custom rom it is built-in, no idea for stock though.

Yes. I've experienced this too. Just two times in about two weeks, nothing to worry about, though. Pressed the on/off button and the glitch went away. Seems to be a problem with the graphic driver. Or maybe just a Touchwiz launcher problem on ICS, don't really know.
I'm on a unrooted ICS (updated via Kies) Note.

Same thing happened to me once while browsing on the default browser and rotated screen from portrait to landscape : colored lines salad, not responding to middle button or touch buttons. After turning screen off then on everything was fine again.
Stock LPY rooted, flashed with Mobile Odin Pro.

Same happened to me. Default unrooted ICS, Kies-updated.

So it appears that this occurs whether someone has rooted their device or not. Hopefully Samsung will publish a stable ICS built to end this barrage of issues with the new Firmware experienced by many. It feels like we are Beta testers on this device.

[Q] Nexus 4 Freeze and Crash

Hi All,
I'm currently experiencing a problem, that I know has popped up on this forum a couple of times, but not for the Nexus 4 specifically.(As far as I know....)
The problem appears to be random freezes, where the device just stops, screen freezes, no hardware or software buttons respond, and requires the power button to be held down for a few seconds to restart... It happens once or twice a day, at random intervals, mainly when i'm at the home screen or just browsing Chrome (Beta).... My Nexus is running the latest Nightly of CyanogenMod 10.1, build 20130529, although this was happening on the RC1 build too... Also running the latest franco.kernel 3.4.0 and Clockwork Recovery. Haven't partitioned, restored any backups etc as of yet. I also have about 230 apps, so if it could be software related, there's i high chance one of those has got something to do with it!
A suggestion or solution that doesn't involve fiddling around with ROMs, kernels and other stuff would be great, i'm not much good at that sort of thing and don't allocate much time to fiddling about with my phone, but nevertheless if required i could give it a shot....
Thanks,

[Q] 4.4.2 ROMS - Random Freezes / locking up

Is anyone else having this issue? I have tried many ROMS and they all have the same problem
After a bit, the phone becomes very unresponsive. It lags really bad, starts to slow down. Then eventually, it's completely frozen, often during an animation
The only way to fix is to reboot
Are there any other fixes for this that don't require rebooting?

still freezes on d801
Yeah I have had the same issue with all the 4.4.2 ROMs I have tried and have yet to find a fix for the d801. That's why I went back to stock for the time being. Been using Cloudyflex ROM with Furnace Kernel and everything runs like butter, no freezes or lags at all. I really want to be on aosp, but until the lagging and freezing goes away no dice.

Don't know if this is a fix, but today my phone rapidly slowed down again. A crash was imminent
I locked it, unlocked it
And it was super fast again!
Not sure if it's a one off, but it may be a fix/workaround?

[Q] Freezing lockscreen aosp/ge roms. Can anyone help?

I've been having this issue for a while now and I've found similar posts elsewhere but I have never found a solution. On any AOSP or Google Edition rom I've tried (pacrom, liquidsmooth, cyanogenmod, Danvdh's GE, etc.) I always run into the same annoying issue. My lockscreen will freeze and will not respond and I am forced to manually reboot by holding down the power button. Sometimes the screen comes and sometimes it doesn't when it freezes. Also, I think every time has been when the phone is in deep sleep (I can't remember if it was every time for sure). Most of the time, I will wake up in the morning, reach for my phone annnnnnnnd it freezes. I'm convinced it's a kernel issue but it's happened with KT kernel, CM, Chronic, and any other AOSP/GE kernel I've found to try. Also, I never have this problem with TW roms.
Sorry this is so long but this is so annoying
Btw I have an SGH-I337

S8 has become slower after the recent security patch update?

My device was not particularly slow. It was working just fine ,then I started noticing that whenever I pressed the Recent Button to switch the apps, the smaller windows that form on pressing the button would have squared corners which become round after a second. It glitches. It didn't happen before. I have tried resetting my device. Also tried the safe mode. Still I cannot remove this problem.
Any solutions?

Yes

Which would be?

yes mine was very slow ... I put the root, kept the android 9 pie stock and changed the kernel to A2N kernel, Its very fast now.
i am very happy \o_
