Mine was a completely different issue that had nothing to do with that. Should work fine.

Guys, I'm having a really serious issue. I registered just to ask you guys for help. PLEASE!

So I went through the process (not the first time I rooted an Android device) and it was easy and simple. After the root I made sure by downloading root checker basic for the Play store. I was indeed rooted. But then something weird started happening. The screen goes into standy by itself after a few seconds like normal, but I can't get it to wake up from standy. I have to shut off the device by holding the power button and then turning it back on again. When I do that it works normally again until the screen shuts off either by me pressing the power button to do it manually, or until the screen dims out into standby. I've tried wiping the cache, I've tried a factory reset, and I've even ran the process again all over using heimdall. I'm guessing it's probably the kernel that gets flashed using heimdall? Please help me out here because I only got this decive today and It really sucks that it's not working :(

Thank you,
-AJ

I havent rooted my tab 2, but it does sound like a kernel issue. Is there any way to flash the stock kernel? Not sure if this will brick the device or not, just throwing ideas out there. Maybe a developer can give you a better idea of what is safe to flash to fix the SOD issues.

Also there are some apps in the market to prevent the device from deep sleeping. I think wake my android is one of them.

I'm sure there's PROBABLY a way to flash the stock firmware and/or stock kernel back on to it. But I have no idea how and I also don't have the necessary stock files! :(

Weird; before I borked my Tab earlier, I had froze/removed a bunch of stock apps with TiBu and things were running A LOT smoother than before. I haven't attempted to reroot yet.

I noticed before I had rooted, if I left my Tab on for an extended period of time without rebooting it or turning it off, I had issues with apps randomly closing themselves, and SwiftKey X got really unresponsive. This was def before I rooted though.
