I have experienced this issue too, and i think it has something to do with the way ics handles dual core. Nothing to worry about though I dont think.
Also faux is known for getting hot so wouldnt use that if your worried about your phone getting too hot.
If your phone is getting past 50 degrees Celsius that's when u need to start worrying.

just because you dont have that problem doesn't mean anyone else doesnt.
I do and the guy above me does. so your wrong

It's normal when its in heavy use or you're using it for a long continous time... But when it gets hot by itself without even using it, not normal... If the second is your case, check what app is continously running without your control of it...
Edit: switching from kernel to the other might make it worse, since they have different configurations and settings.... Make sure you wipe cache and dalvik cache before and after flashing kernel.... When I switch kernel to the other.... I Make sure there are no files left behind by the other kernel....

very hot !

hi, i'm running android revolution HD overclocked with faux kernel at 1510 and i noticed that my phone is getting warm each time i use it ( gps, internet, games). when i play games i goes to 48° celsius. I am a bit worry about it. I'm thinking about overheat maybe ? is that normal ? do u have the same temperature ?
(temperature at home 28°c)
Try underclocking it to like 1.3 GHz, whenever I do that my device cools down and I don't notice a drop in performance....

Thanks for your answer, that's what i tried yesterday night, temperature goes to 44° when i play Xplane 9 or 3d games .... it's a bit less than 48° but it's still a bit hot .... ?!
Overheat is at 50° isn't it ??
To my knowledge the faux kernel has heat problems. I know I can't use it or my phone gets too hot. Have you tried using a different kernel? Unity or Stock even?

I for one have not had heat issues with the Faux v0.1.0 kernel. Granted, I have not played many intense 3D games, but I have played N64oid with Super Mario 64 for roughly 15-20 minutes straight and haven't noticed any difference in phone temperature. If anything, this kernel, for me, performs better than the stock kernel in terms of temperature.
Could I be the lucky one? lol
hi everyone,
i have tested 2 differents ROM : android revolution from Mike and InsertCoin from baadnews and i just tried with stock kernel ... and guess what ? and my phone is still hot when i'm using it ... about 43°.
any idea ?
hello every one
i had this issue even before i root my mobile
and i am using LeeDrOiD but it is really getting hot sometimes for many reasons
when i connect the WIFI and i am charging the mobile
when i play any kindof games for some time.
when i browse some applications
i hope this will be fixed it is something really bad!

than don't over clock.
over clocking is going to raise operating temperatures.
What is your goal with overclocking? Or you just hopping on the band wagon?

you are right i agree with you but
so why we are having a strong phone with all these specifications ??
even when i was on stock also had the sme issue
i think Q&A for HTC is really bad for this phone.
according to the number of problems this phone have(screen, heat, Dust under screen).
these problems happend for allot of people, just google it and you will see big result and i dont see any reaction from HTC!!!

i overclocked because i am a performance addict . always wants more you know but this time i think i will not overclock ,temparture are too high and it will end very bad !
I also noticed that the buttons ( home, back, search , menu ) always stay on when i use de phone, is it normal ? the lights should not switch off after a few seconds ?

[Q] my phone is getting super hot arhd 3.1.0

hi!
since installing android revolution HD 3.1.0 after 10 min of playing games (like angry birds) ,
my phone gets super hot , like really hot . it wasnt hot like this before.
after a few mins of super hot phone , the phone close itself.
someone know a way i can tweak some settings and make the phone not get hot so much?
thank you
try 3.1.1 instead, if its still hot
then down clock it back to 1.2
i thought on upgradign to 3.1.1 because then i dont need to wipe
but now all my widgets on the home screens stopped working.
therefore i think i will install 3.6.0
you think it will solve the hot problem?
also how do i clock down ?
thank s

If you go to the thread where you got the rom youll find a zip file which you can install via recovery which puts it back down to 1.2ghz, i think its at the same place in the thread where you download the rom. im gonna try it as my phone gets quite hot too.
thats clocks down should help us with the heat?
i upgraded to 3.6.0
will see whats going on
well my phone keeps getting hot.
before i downclock , is there another option?
i ve got the same problem and i am running mike1968 3.6.0xe and my battery is also getting very hot, sometimes around 41 celcius. i dont play games, dont look movies, dont listen music, just use some apps and mostly facebook. When surfing on the internet on the phone it is getting very hot. Nobody really has an answer for it, at least not at the development section of mike1968 3.6.0 xe. I ordered a new battery the one from de Evo 3d, hopefully it should help.
i have 3 different batteries trust me it wont help you
the prob is in the phone plus the rom , not the battery
i hope someone here can help us

I have a similar issue but not to that extreme...my Sensation is generally between 31C & 34C in use (ARHD v3.6.0xe, ARHD v3.6.1xe).
I am trying the brickedkernel and have tried clocking down to 1.2 (back on 1.5).
I don't remember the phone getting to 30 deg using 3.5.1, but the days are warmer here now.

Definitely keep your phone out of the heat then. I would recommend flashing the latest (3.6.1 as of today). I'm pretty sure there were improvements made to the phone to prevent it from getting too hot, at least it was mentioned in the changelog. Have you tried Faux's kernel at all?
im on 3.6.0 but with faux kernel 0.1.9
i also applied the thermal patch.
still hot,
i know i can upgrade to 3.6.1 i just dont think it will solve the problem
Dunno guys, I had the same issue with every ROM I tried. I finally decided to buy an anker battery and it actually seemed to help. The phone still gets warm, but it definitely runs a little cooler.

If it's general normal use getting the phone hot (web+games), then see good recommendations already posted above.
If you have a runaway app, then use Watchdog and System Tuner to find the app that is causing the problem.
If you have a kernel that supports OC, then get System Tuner and set Under-Freq + Under-volt to give less heat, more battery life. Heat = C* Volt^2 * Freq

[Q] [SOLVED] Random shutdowns / turning off.

Hey guys,
The topic of this thread has change slightly since I started it. Please disregard the first few posts after this one.
The problem is that when I install a new ROM, it works perfectly for an hour or perhaps even the day, and then I start getting random shutdowns. These seem to start out of the blue and I cant work it out.
When installing a new ROM, I always check the MD5 and perform a superwipe before starting to use the ROM. Ill put back a few apps using titanium backup pro.
I don't use any hacked apps or task killers.
I have searched but cant find anything useful.
Currently using Insertcoin Sense 4 RC5. Firmware 3.32.
I have tried three different kernals (Bricked, Sebastian and RCMix), all with the same problem.
Update: tjamaican has kindly sent me a fix he found of the forums, its for a battery fix that worked for me on insertcoin's ICS Sense 4 RC4.1 ROM. However I have just moved to RC5 and the problem is back even with the fix.
http://www.mediafire.com/?2a8837bcatym1ju
I am going to try and set a lower CPU level, already down to 1.2 Ghz with max screen off at ~500Mhz. Seems stable for now, been running 24hrs - no restarts.
This is interesting because I had a GB Rom running at 1.5Ghz with no problems, maybe its something to do with ICS.
Any ideas?
[SOLVED]
Sent the phone off to htc and they have replaced the motherboard. Its all fine and dandy now!
They dont know why it happened or how to avoid it in the future...useful, but if you're still in warranty then send it off, it took exactly a week to get back to me (Monday to Monday). Good luck!

Well no need for factory reset. Superwipe? Yes.
What roms cause this?
What firmware is ur senny on? Ex: 1.17? 3.24?
Phone have physical damage?
Has it been wet?
Sent From Space Using My ICS Flavored Sensation
Thanks for your reply.
No, the phone is basically new, but as I said this has happened before.
Running this ROM on 3.24:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468683
But this does happen on other ROMS too, they work perfectly for a while and then slowly begin to develop problems. At this stage I usually install the latest version of the ROM but I'm actually happy with the ROM at the moment and dont want to have to keep changing it!
I've been running Darkforest ROM since early stages and have had no problems so far. Maybe try that one. It's on v 5.1.5 now and it's very fast and very stable, moreso than many other ROMs i've tried.
Could be a defective device possibly? Are u using the kernel that comes with the rom?

I would download 1-click cleaner and clean the cache every week. Also you might want to boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache every two weeks.

I dont think there is anything wrong with the device, I'll try wiping the cache's and see if that makes a difference. Thank you very much for all your answers so far.

Could possibly be an app try removing all your apps and install 1 by 1 give it a couple of weeks see if it happens again, I got a problem from juice defender pro (payed for) worked alright for few days then my launcher started force closing all the time took me ages to figure it out but got there by removing all my apps and installing them 1 by 1 long and time staking but worth a try

Okay well ive tried clearing the cache and davlik cache with no luck, less restarts but they are still there. I am resistant to start removing apps as I use them on a daily basis. Before I try this, does anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks,

What other information would you like?
I think it may be a kernel issue, I'm going to try a few...
Tried three different kernals now, all with the same problem which would indicate its not a kernal problem? Something else perhaps? (Tried bricked, sebastian and RCMix)
its not a problem, its with network connection
I've had this problem since ages and couldn't fix it yet. First thing, download LTE switch and change the value from wcdma preferred to gsm auto. see if it avoids the restarts. Another thing you can try is, change the sim card (I havent tried it yet). Or, if possible, change the back cover. But I'm pretty pretty sure its the problem with the network.
Please reply.

Well I have been at the 1.2GHz level for almost 24 hours now without too much trouble. Im not sure if it was lowering the CPU clock for screen on, or raising the CPU clock for screen off. Either way I can notice the device is slightly slower. I dont see why ICS doesnt like overclocking on this phone, GB was fine with it?!

Update:
Just had a random shutdown, could have been anywhere in the last 20 mins. I really don't know what else to try!
Having EXACT ones you are having. Buy another battery if that doesn't work its a hardware problem. I still need to buy my battery but will post and let you know if it worked.

I'm also starting to think its caused by not letting the battery fully die and recharging it a lot but that's just my guess?
I switched back to gingerbread yesterday and so far I've had no problems which would indicate its not a hardware issue...? Usually by now I've had a few shut downs..
So I went as far as unrooting and switching batteries with my bro and the problem continues idk what to do

Well that's definitely not normal.
But it's not guaranteed to be a hardware problem. Something could be overworking the CPU because of software problem.
The first thing to do is to check if you have a rogue app that's overworking the system continuously.
Or your kernel could be set to run at max 1.6ghz constantly. Try to dial that down a bit and use a scalable processor speed to give the CPU a break when it's not needed. There's very few reasons to run at 1.6ghz continuously.
It could also be fixed with a different kernel. (Or caused because you have a wrong kernel for the ROM, though you'd be more likely to have the ROM not work at all in that case) Try switching kernels and seeing if you have better results.
And if all that easy to change stuff fails, flash a different ROM and see if you get better results. You might even try wiping everything and reflashing your current ROM and starting fresh.

Sensation Queries

Hi,
Now i dont know whether this is the right place to post this question or not but since this seemed like a general query, someone please help me with them:
1- i've been using albinoman887 jb 4.2.2 rom, mikes ARHD 7.3 and now viper 3.1.1 rom. the battery is draining quite fast in all the roms. is there anything called power management that causing the battery to drain fast? is there an apk or something to solve this problem?
2- if the scrolling between screens or within settings or app is slow and the touchscreen response is low what should i do? can installing a different kernal solve this issue? faced this problem with cyanogen mod rom

If you're experiencing battery issues even on ARHD I'd suggest getting a new battery. On Mikes's ROM you should be able to go 15+ hours with 2.5-3 screen time. If you're getting much lower results you might want to get a replacement battery.
Stock batteries on Sensation usually last no more than 2 years.

1) There are ways to improve battery usage. There are apps that drain battery, connectivity, every ROM needs a couple of days to calibrate the battery - so until then battery life will be shorter. You should see what's draining your battery in the settings menu.
2) I don't see any reason for cyanogenmod 10 (or even 10.1) to be slow. for me it runs blazing fast on stock settings (and even downclocked the CPU (which also helps with battery life)). Did you change your CPU settings? having CPU frequency too low can also affect touch response (If I'm not wrong, but some people report this).
Also, when flashing a ROM, remember to fully wipe your phone to prevent bugs.
There are ROMs that don't have a different kernel (like cyanogenmod), so you'll have to do with the included one.

Are you using albinoman887's cm10.1 rom? if you are then plz help me with it. i need to know how you are able to run it blazing fast. my problem with cm10.1 was that the scrolling seemed real slow and i had to charge my phone almost 3 times a day. how do i downclock the cpu? i have little knowledge about cpu settings. i installed setcpu with the max frequency set to 1566 Mhz and lowest to something like 300 but i dont know what that means and how it affects the performance. does the full wipe also include memory card? i dont do that.
plz correct me if i'm wrong but i think there is a sultan kernel available for cm10.1 (albinoman's rom) will installing a different kernel help? how do i install different kernel? simply flashing it?

Those CPU values seem to be Okay. Also, make sure your governor is NOT poerformance, as it locks your CPU to full power while using the phone.
When saying full wipe it does not include the memory card, it's Data+cache, but you should also wipe system between ROMs. I suggest you make a clean install of the ROM, as I find it weird that it won't work properly. Use the latest version available and wipe system, data and cache. Also wipe battery stats. This should clean the device and allow better performance and battery life (should take 2-3 complete battery cycles (100%-0%)).
Also, use Android Tuner and find the option to TRIM your partitions, it could improve performance.
In CyanogenMod -go to developer options and enable "force GPU processing". I don't do it, but it could smoothen up your experience.
