[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 714223, member: 82144"] Hi again Phaedra I'm sorry to hear that the problems are back, but I have to say that I'm not surprised. I'm still convinced that you have a signal problem, perhaps combined with a problem with resuming after hibernate/sleep. The stuttering patch isn't going to fix either of those problems.
