Don't know what's happening.. - T-Mobile LG G2x

I'm charging my device, now whenever the screen turns off Boom phone gets SUPER SUPER HOT, but battery is not.
And SOD while the camera part is very hot.
Any solution? :|

That used to happen with me. Try flashing a different kernel. It fixed it for me

You set it to stay awake?

Uh. The screen is turned off while charging.
This is the first time I got SOD and the phone getting super hot to touch by hand.
Seems like my my CPU is going out of control or something..
..
Idk but I put my phone on top of an ice pack and no more SOD... Funny.

Yeah man this happens once in a while... The G2x is retarded like that. For me I'd just take the battery out and leave it for a good 10 minutes, fixed it every time. I guess you can change the kernel but either way a simple reboot and taking the battery out fixes it.
Happens randomly.

Ya try a diff Kernel, are you using the stock one that cam with the rom?

Under settings set the screen to stay awake while charging and don't lock the screen, just let it dim.

This works really well. What I do is open up clock and hit the dim button on top right. This will help with SOD and not keep you up by the bright screen.

[Q] Screen off animation?

Different from power off, my friends Evo has a screen off, or a sleep animation. Is that possible with the Mesmerize?

This is requires a MOD to the ROM (I've seen it only in cyanogen ROM's in versions 2.2 and 2.3) I would love to see it as well....

Sounds like a huge battery drain. As often as I turn my screen on and off it would destroy my battery life to have an animation run everytime my screen went black. Cool idea but with the battery life we have on our phones I'm not sure the cool factor would out weigh the drainage.

It's a very good point to bring up, but if you take a look at it right now it's actually already animated. It fades out and in upon lock/unlock.
What he's referring to (probably) is the t.v. power off animation (so basically it just shrinks the image down to the center of the screen before disappearing (like an old t.v) (seems to take the same amount of time the stock one takes)
I would think these would be about the same as far as battery usage, but I really don't have math to back it up.

Hmm very possible. I really hadn't noticed it until you mentioned it. It's very quick but I guess it does fade some. I just assumed that was how the screen powered up though.

That totally could be true also, but my main point (hope) is that the T.V. animation is pretty much the same as it has now, just neater looking
Yes, the TV screen animation is exactly the one that my friend has. It's very quick and I don't think would take up a lot of battery. It would be great to see this as an add-on.
That would be awesome, I love how it looks when using cyanogenmod nightlies on the Droid.

question about black screen of death

usually you will get the black screen of death when:
-after a phone call
-during/after charging
-when hitting the power button to turn off or turn on your screen.
do you think that the gingerbread launcher is causing this problem?
Ive read on other forums on different phones that the launchers were causing the same problems on their phone as well and when they switched launchers, it all stopped.
is this a reasonable explanation?
Nope. It happens to my wife on GO Launcher as well.

Only SOD I ever come across is the call SOD. That happens when running Trinity kernel on CM7 or CM7 based roms. Morfics updated Trinity kernel I assume has fixed the SOD as I haven't come across it while running CM7's nightly 199.

This is when your phone goes on permanent "sleep" as in your screen wont turn on. Only way to turn it on is to do a batt pull and reboot.

i use 2.3.7 eaglesblood running the trinity kernal and knocn on wood no problems at all. Hope i dont get that phone disease.
The kernel is the problem. I've said it a million times. Its why CM7 based roms don't do this and those with custom kernels. My Asus transformer did this (tegra 2) until a custom kernel came out.
Change the kernel and fix the SoD.
LG G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Black Screen of death
I recently flashed EB 2.3.7 / 2.5 (runs amazing by the way) but have one small issue. When charging my phone at night it goes into perm. sleep mode for the last 3 nights. My wake up call never goes off . I read somewhere it may be kernel related, so I flashed faux .46 hoping that would resolved sleep issue. It has not, anyone else have any insight?
Thanks.
That happens sometimes or stock ROM.

Hold the power button down for a long time. After about 30-45 seconds, something will usually happen. Sometimes the home screen will flash on for a second and then go black again, sometimes the home screen will come on but will be in a frozen state and won't accept input, and sometimes the screen will come back on normal. This will allow you to avoid a battery pull maybe a quarter to a third of the time you get an SOD.

Not sure if this is a kernel or ROM problem but its driving me nuts! lol

Can't figure out why my phone is all of a sudden extremely laggy whenever i wake up the phone. I'm running liquids latest nonsense rom and zooms 1.0.3 kernel. Its so bad I almost want to go back to stock. Whenever I wake most of the time it will wake up and go right back to sleep. then when i can keep it awake it won't catch my input on the pattern pw lock and when it does catch it sometimes won't let me finish my pattern. i can't even answer the phone right away when its sleeping. I have to constantly swipe over and over until it finally goes. anyone experience this? could it be that im min is too low or i'm on smartassv2?

Are you over/under clocking?
Are you using an app like SetCPU and have profiles for when your screen is off? (if this is the case, try settings the min a little higher for when the screen is off)
Run fix permissions twice then reeboot.....

tried setting min higher but didn't work. i was using stock speed. Ended up being the kernel as I flashed another kernel and all is well now.

screen lights up randomly

Hi all. Since updating to 2.3.5 my screen randomly lights up. The phone will be just sitting on the table, next to bed etc and the screen will light up for a few seconds and the turn off.
Not been on a stock ROM in a while, but I do remember hearing about this problem when the update rolled out. Just can’t remember if the problem was solved. Had a quick search and no joy. I'll keep looking. I have a theory though...
I had this problem once, and it was down to an app and the WiFi sleep policy. The WiFi sleep policy was set to ’15 minutes’ so the app was occasionally forcing a wake-lock to stop the WiFi from shutting off. This would also cause the screen to come on briefly. Could it be something like that? Sorry I can’t remember what the app was. Try leaving WiFi off and see if that stops it. If not successful try leaving auto-sync off. It will at least rule out or confirm something trying to force a wake-lock to sync something.
Edit: Does this do it only when on charge? Try opening up Car Dock Mode, and turning off 'Auto Launch'.

I noticed this too, but only on a Sense 3.5 ROM...Endymion (because, frankly, i didn't care much about any other Sense ROM to stay on it long enough to notice anything) ...but for me, the screen only lit up like a camera flash, just for a fraction of a second! not for a couple of seonds as you have experienced. Been on ICS betas, and RCs and currently on Reaper, but this issue never repeated itself. So far, this has happened to me only on a Sense 3.5 ROM...and my setup, sync frequency, installed apps hardly ever varies from ROM to ROM...I'm pretty consistent about how i like to use my phone.
And frankly, even when this was happening, i didn't bother much because it wasn't affecting performance or battery life... Sense is quirky, to say the least, but i've learnt to tolerate it like you would a sexy girlfriend. If it's sexy enough, it can get away with anything!!
I had this issue on the stock 2.3.3 ROM.

Same here with MIUI... Just for a 1/10 of a second...

I get this on ICS (virtuos quattro) when screen is off and charging, like half a second on and off again...
i've had this issue with pretty much every ROM, actually had it since i've had the phone. The phone lights up for a quick second. Enough for you to realise when your eyes are closed. i don't pay much attention to it anymore. But i don't think mine lasts seconds like yours. Mine was just a blank screen flashing

Overheating problem

I buyed atrix2 5days ago when i use games and web for 5min the screen was overheating my phone is not rooted and using motorla rom any solu
tions please.
What do you mean
Overheating? what do you mean. was it crashing or did it just feel hot?
My experience
mine actually feel's hot when i play or in conditions of extreme usage. So if you are not getting any visible problems, don't worry. I think they also have a temp protection in case the processor might overheat.
my phone have this problem,too
Screen not responding correctly
When I have my phone plugged in it gets hot and the screen does not respond correctly. I'm not sure what the cause is but I believe it has to do with how hot the phone gets.
Is this the problem you are having? I have two Atrix 2's and both of them (one stock one using Blaze Rom) have this issue.
I had a Razr, and the screen was overheat, but Atrix 2 is never (of course playing game or surfing webs for a long time)
i have the same problem too.. i think it is because android software is downloading in background.. did you turn on background data all the time?
Background Data?
Wait are you telling me if I turn off my background data the phone won't get hot enough to interfere with the screenworking correctly?
I haven't noticed any abnormal heat on mine....wonder if the Otterbox has anything to do with that

I can say that Atrix 2 is a "cool" phone, from inside to outside.

If both of them have the issue, wouldn't you think about replacing the charger? That's what is messing up your screen and probably causing it to get hot as well
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
First we need to know: is it getting hot when its charging or just running on battery?
I believe that most phones get pretty hot when they're charging and running something heavily processor-intensive wouldn't exactly help.
Second, I suggest you install the app Watchdog, it'll keep an eye on your processes to see if any apps are misbehaving and consuming too much of the cpu.
Third, try to turn off things that you don't need. If you're playing a game then you probably don't need wifi/bluetooth/auto-sync/etc, also make sure your brightness is set on automatic and not to the brightest setting possible.
If this doesn't help report back with more information.

I am using the stock charger; though I have not noticed the problem in Airplane mode. Nor since I'm changed to Sonya rom.

My phone hit 102 degrees today. Hottest it ever got. Was playing a game for maybe a half hour. Running ATRIX blazev3 red theme overclocked at 1100mhz. Should I be worried if it continues to do this or maybe turn the clock speeds down a bit?
