This problem was reported on the bug tracker: FS#11558
But it was reported to be fixed as of build r27864 and the task was closed. Please try the latest build to see if the problem has indeed been resolved.
shotofadds:
There's no reason why this behaviour would have changed between r27860 and r27864, so the problem is not "fixed" - it's just not manifesting itself at the moment. r27646 did change some drivers, but the code changes are trivial and won't have caused the problem.
I think these kind of issues started happening intermittently after the build was switched to the EABI compiler - I've also seen reports of strange things like one or both earphones sometimes not having any sound.
But at the moment I don't have the time to investigate and fix it, unfortunately.

Well shotofadds, it’s not important we all can use the old builts ,I just thought it’s good to say the details happening that’s all. We all appreciate all you did for D2 I personally don’t see any need of more development it does all we need.
Thanks again.

Do you know at which point / in which driver it fails?
Perhaps developers who don't have a D2 could give a hand on this.

For me the problems started at r27123. Like shotofadds said, right after the EABI was enabled. I've seen various intermittent problems. I think andrewthecoder over at http://iaudiophile.net//forums/showthread.php?t=37064&page=2 described the most common ones best, so here is a quote from him.
--- Quote from: andrewthecoder ---Revision 27090 is what I'm using, and have been using since whenever it was it was committed.
I've tried various times to update to newer builds, but I've intermittently experienced one of the following:
1) Freezing on a black (but backlight on) screen immediately after the bootloader
2) Muted audio, despite all functions seemingly working fine
3) Audio heavily panned to one channel, output volume lower than usual
Usually hard-resetting (holding power switch for 10 seconds), then switching on again worked to get it to boot normally, but sometimes it would require several of these reset cycles before it would work, "several" ranging from 1 to 20.
This frustrated me enough to revert to an older build, in my case 27090.

Building the database also seems to cause it to freeze/lockup in my experience. There have been a few times I actually had to delete all the database files from the .rockbox folder on my sd card just to get it to boot again.
I've been happily running rockbox on my d2 for over 2 years now and haven't experienced these specific problems until after r27123.
