So - an update - it really seems that in my case at least the black screens of death were being caused by omnewrotate. I'd been getting at least 1 or 2 a day since I installed it, and I got 4 last Sunday and at least 2 or 3 the day before that. On monday I changed the omnewrotate behaviour to be off by default, and I haven't seen a single BSOD since then.<br>
<br>It's a bit annoying, since if I forget to make sure the phone is vertical before suspending it, my screen is all messed up, but that is less annoying than missing calls because of the BSODs.<br><br>Warren<br><br><br>

That sounds quite reasonable - I wasn't trying to point fingers - just describing the experience I had. yesterday I had my FR die with a BSOD 4 times - before I installed omnewrotate on this install I hadn't seen a BSOD at all.<br>
<br>I've just changed the default behavior for omnewrotate to 'Off' an hour or two ago, I'm going to run for a few days and see if that impacts things...<br><font color="#888888"><br>Warren</font><div><div>

<br>
As you go into suspend, a script is called that *stops* (kills the process)<br>
omnewrotate.<br>
<br>
As you resume, a script is called that starts omnewrotate.<br>
<br>
So:<br>
<br>
1) as you suspend, omnewrotate is *not* even working.<br>
2) only after resume is completed does omnewrotate get started<br>
<br>
Conclusion: omnewrotate doesn't affect suspend/resume cycles. :)<br>
<br>
This scripts were place early on in it's development as after resuming<br>
omnewrotate couldn't get any data from the accelerometers (let alone<br>
my fears that keeping the device open could affect resume).<br>
