[Q] suggestions on getting less heat from phone

im on ARHD 3.6.2 ,
after couple of minutes of playing games but phone is super hot i mean i cant even touch the bottom part of the phone (where the home button etc is at)
anyway i know there are some solutions or think there are solutions ,
i would like to know which one you think is the best?
solutions that i think will help:
1. run the patch to down clock to 1.2 - in mike's first post
2. run the thermal patch on faux kernel's thread
3. change my kernel to bricked kernel
also i got anker battery if its important.
if you have other suggestions it will be really good to hear them out.

I ran the thermal patch and it has worked pretty well for me. I haven't had my phone get as hot as you were describing earlier however, it was uncomfortable to hold even through my case.

Happy flashing!
Edit: Don't forget to clear your cache partition and your dalvik caches. And remember ALWAYS back-up prior to flashing, just incase.

The faux kernels and patch is based on HTC source code for the above patch. The patch you want to use for CM7 can be found at the link below.

you guys might want to download faux clock apk to help with the manual set up of the kernel specs.
just a suggestion. always helps to know exactly what your working with and be in control. its a little more detailed than say oc daemon.
side note: remember to try and uninstall if you have issues in the future trying to flash new kernels.

i will give a try to the thermal patch..
but i dont holds to much hope for it to work...
unless it some miracle patch
my phone getting really hot.. its really weird what is the reason

Would this patch work on the stock kernel?

What ROM are you running?
Edit: Yes, use the top download.
Remember to backup and clear caches before flashing.

What setup do you have? Currently I'm running Android Revolution HD 4.1.3 with faux kernel 0.2.2 beta 2 and I am getting no heat problems like I was when I was running 0.2.1 final. I also have amaze camera, modified bootanimations, EQS, APM, custom battery icon, and the 4G symbols added on. Only thing I did was switch my kernel. The patch helped with the 0.2.1 final faux kernel some but not as much as I would have liked so I switched kernels. I would recommend giving this kernel a try. Link below

No need to cool it down.
If it gets that hot, there is a problem with either sw or hw, it's not normal. So instead of healing symptoms you should look for a cause.

i cant think of any cause,
as my phone worked great before i rooted it and installed ARHD
after i got mike's Rom each time (no matter which version) i ran a game (most likely angry birds) for more then 10 min the phone start to get really really hot.
so.. any ideas? its must be a rom issue which need to be fixed but i got no clue what to do next

Mike's ROM over clocks the CPU and that can result in generating a lot of excess heat. Use the Daemon to put the CPU back to the wake max setting of 1188000.

[Q] Android 4.0 ROM for HTC Sensation?

Hey devs,
Found a few threads from the HTC Desire department where they are talking about Android 4.0 and making a 4.0 ROM for the Desire...
Is that also possible with our Sensation? I mean, we have better processor, GPU, screen etc. Haven't found anything about this in the Sensation department yet.
Thought I'd ask
Greetings!

Why can't you report stuff on the XDA app yet?

I saw some screenies on the Nexus Galaxy, looks slick as hell! I might just have to get the Nexus too when it comes out. Too many new phones, not enough time to enjoy a single one before I'm on to the next.

no need to change the sdcard...
need some info here..you are 1.17.111 and i assume you are SOFF (deduced this by reading your post)...
the only misssing this is cid...if you are supercid thats good...otherwise
get the corresponding 3.32 firmware for your cid...or you can simply supercid as you are soff "fastboot oem writecid 11111111"

Android Revolution 3.6.11 HELP!

Hello,
I have mine and my wives sensations s-off and rooted and both running the latest Android Revoluttion 3.5 Roms with beats. My phone is fast and everything works great, apart from very occasional black screen freeze and lock up. Quick battery removal/restart fixes it. But the wives phone lags, freezez, loses WiFi. What should I do to fix it? Tried reflashing the Rom, but to no avail. She wants me to make it s on and remove root. Any suggestions before I do?
Thanks

G'day mate,
As far as I know these problems are mentioned on the ARHD page, if you scroll down the first post, you'll see all the FAQ's, I also had these similar problems in the early stages of learning all about Android.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I super wiped, redownloaded 3.6.11 ROM and reflashed it. So far so good, but its only been less than a day.

[Q] anybody got android 4.01 roms?

Hello. I'm semi-bricked so I cannot use android 4.03 roms. They just don't work for me. I loved arhd 5.01 because I thought it would be awful but it isn't. It has epic speech recognition problems though, it just says unfortunately voice search has stopped. It says this for each of the voice needed applications. Does anybody have any other 4.01 roms? Preferably sense but I don't mind

You could try hypernonsense, so smooth, fast and stable.

Is it android 4.01 or gingerbread

Please stop flashing your phone until you know what you are doing. I would think after all of the trouble you had previously after flashing firmware being stuck with s on and your phone being in an unusable state you would have stopped messing with it.
Go back to stock and leave it alone. You are eventually gonna brick it. You need to do a lot of reading so you are not asking for help all day, everyday.

It's an ICS rom (4.03). Full wipe is needed.

Well im sorry but i dont want to start any arguements. I know exactly what i'm doing and why i am doing it. Android 4.01 roms are the only ones that work for me, yes i did make a fatal mistake but after much reading ( yes i did) i know what's happening
I'm furthermore 'sorry' if i have angered you experienced users but i have not really asked for help with my phone for a while now and i dont intend to. I wasn't posting this to be annoying, I just needed help finding android 4.01 roms and incase anybody else needed them.

Yes I flashed it. I think you should :
1. Flash 3.32 fw
2. Wipe data/ factory reset
3. Wipe cache partition
4. Wipe davlink cache
5.Flash virtuous 4.0.0
6. Reboot
Then if it work you can flash addons, kernels

[Q] can't turn on my sensation

Hi guys
after searching in this forum i found no similar issue to my sensation and i have decided to ask on a post ....
i have htc sensation 4g Tmobile (or maybe had ha ha ah ).
the phone is with me since November 2011, and i am flashing Roms here in the xda with no such issue never .before one month my screen was damaged and i have decided to send him to one of the labs for repair, and they did replace my screen and it worked well .after 3 weeks i flashed ARHD 6.6.3 and it worked for few hours and then went dead and i mean can't go either to recovery hboot fastboot even my PC does not recognize it .
i must say that when connecting it to the cahrger the orange led turn on for few seconds and then goes off thats it the phone stays off and sometimes it vibrate few times and the screen is totaly black no light at all .
is that mean that my device is bricked? or it could be related to the screen replacement
appreciate any help

Yes..I think there's something going on with the custom firmware/kernel or whatever we're putting on. I don't think it's the ROM since people with different ROM is having problems with it.
The thing is..all these are happening when the phone actually booted up and then stopped working. Not like it couldn't boot up after attempting to update ROM or install because it was interrupted half way.
So something is messed up and killing the phone. Or is it a hardware thing that many people are experiencing?

The thing is with the firmware....its not like its a test firmware leak anymore. The 3.32 firmware haw been released by HTC as part of their official ICS upgrade. If its part of the problem wouldn't we start to see a lot of failed phones? Also isn't Mike's Rom also based on the official RUU of the HTC upgrade?
