So i used my phone stock about the first month. Had no problems whatsoever. Decided to root it the other day. From stock i followed the autoroot method, installed the latest Starburst rom, and installed the ICS theme. For the most part the phone was running okay. No problems. But then today and last night i noticed that when i turn off the screen and leave the phone alone for a period of time it would shut off. At first i was like "oh please don't keep doing this". And today when it did it over and over again i decided to take action.
I figured i would start with assuming it was an app. I do download a lot of apps. But i figured it would have to be an app that has a good bit of control over my phone. So i narrowed it down to 3 apps: setcpu, autokiller memory optimizer, and LBE.
I figured if it was an app causing the problem then it would have to be an app like these that have a lot of control over any system part.
So i uninstalled Autokiller and SetCPU.(Both of which i paid for and can no longer get a refund for so i would eventually like to be able to use them.) I didn't uninstall LBE because for one, i'm very paranoid and like the added security, and for 2, it just didn't seem like it has the power to make my phone shut down.
So now i removed both of those apps from my phone via tit backup.
And for the last few hours i haven't had any problems!
It's still pretty early to tell for sure if the problem has gone away for good but it's defiantly gotten better.
But i did pay for those 2 apps and i would really like to be able to use them with out fear of my phone doing this stuff.
I'm really busy with work this week so i don't have the time to test each app and find out where the problem is coming from.
So i guess I'm just wondering if anyone has herd about anything like this? And what would be the best thing to do about fixing it. A friend at work said to format my SD card and system. I figure taking it back to stock and re rooting/installing the rom might work but i don't want to go through all that if it is a problem that others have come across and hopefully has an easy fix. And if it really is either one of those apps then i don't think that would do much.
Any ideas or support would be greatly appreciated.
Will eventually add to/tweak this post a little. Have to be up for work in 3.8ish hours.
