[Q] Sensation Heating Issue!!! Probable Solution!! - HTC Sensation

Pardon me if i have brought up silly or crazy question but I have to ask it
I have a sensation and have been using vipers rom from very beginning with cpu to 1.5Ghz and 3d/2d slightly overclocked. and there is heating issue at area around Sim/sdcard slot and front screen part while surfing web or playing games(basically while using resource hogging apps) That's where cpu is located i believe. [also the phone starts lagging when it heats TOO MUCH]
Then past month i clocked every thing back to sensation's default. it helped to cool the temp lil'bit.
Then few days ago I switched to Sultan kernel which dramatically makes my phone lot cooler than it used to.(but still heats up) I overclocked to 1.5Ghz and is still cool. Undervolted to -50 worked fine. Then i started to tweak 3d/2d gpu overclock/underclock and it heats up like before. So, here i think proper tweaking the cpu,gpu can generate less heat on the phone but I have tried many things as i mentioned above and i am not sure what exactly is making the phone hot or cool down or what to do about overclocking/underclocking/undervolting, etc,etc,etc
So here I am asking other user for their guide for proper tweaking the phone to its best performance without heating it up. Any suggestion??:silly: what cpu freq?? 2d gpu freq?? 3d freq?? undervolting?? leaving stock??
I dont mind clocking the cpu to 1.2ghz or 1.5 ghz.. the processor on sensation can handle upto 1.8 or so just fine. But all i want it to generate less heating, more performance and definitely more battery life.. so any suggestion?:fingers-crossed:
This info can help other noob out there (specially me) to tweak their phone without worrying what to do and what freq to use....Cheers
For more info i use anker battery.. and as far as i know battery is not the cause for heating on sensation.

Bricked is the best kernel for the heating problem. Don't oc the cpu and gpu and you should be fine. The only problem is that bricked is a bit laggy

overclock gpu produce much heating (my experience) and that also bring not much more performance. Overclock cpu produce of course some heat too, but not that much. Also undervolting the cpu reduce the heating.
I think the coldest one are, which are more close to stock.

Hi,
Overclocking whether CPU or GPU will definitely cause heat, you cannot have both performance and coolness besides each other ever; in case you want performance, then you have got to tolerate high temperatures and further, a bit lag. But if this heating thing bothers you too much, then you have to stay with a lower CPU/GPU frequency. In this case, if you still do not want to lose your performance TO AN EXTEND, then I recommend flashing an AOSP/KANG ROM instead of Sense based ones.
Good luck :good:

Unfortunately bricked didn't worked out for me, also was a bit laggy like u mentioned.
I have set the cpu to 1.2Ghz and both 2d/3d underclocked with -50UV.. As of now working like charm.:good: But I wanna know, Does underclocking Gpu has any effect on performance??

In case you've flashed Sultan Kernel in which Ville C2's GPU drivers are included, then IN MY OPINION there would be no problem at all.
I'll provide the link to it if you couldn't find the correct one.

don't worry for the heat my phone goes up to 80°C and is still working fine. no problem at all. so remember to not use 1800 mhz use max 1620mhz and max 320 gpu 3d. will wil get good perf. always use PYD-X or SB FM (ICS) or (JB)

put it in the fridge when overheat.not joking.i always need to do that:screwy:

Underclock your 2D GPU to 145MHz on my kernel. Underclocking the GPU can make transition animations and games laggier HOWEVER unclocking the 2D GPU instead of the 3D GPU will do no harm and the difference is barely noticeable. Your homescreen will also be just as smooth as before because Rosie is rendered by the 3D GPU, not the 2D GPU. If underclocking your 2D GPU to 145MHz doesn't make your phone as cool as you want it to be then you can also lower the speed of your 3D GPU. If your phone is still getting hot after unclocking your GPU then use a more energy efficient CPU governor like Badass or Intellidemand. Also, in my kernel's Aroma installer, enable mpdecision. The mpdecision in my newest beta for Sense ICS ROMs (r18b3) works best, so install r18b3 and see how you like it. You can download r18b3 from here: http://goo.im/devs/sultanxda/Pyramid_Sense_BETA/Sultan-kernel-r18b3-Sense-Aroma.zip

Be careful with battery life on r18b3 though; people have reported that the phone doesn't go into deepsleep with Intellidemand so your battery may drain.

[Q] HTC Sensation 4G T-Mobile US Kernel above 1.5Ghz

Has anyone used any kernels for HTC Sensation 4g (TMO US) above 1.566Ghz?
I am currently using a ROM by Mike1986 and kernel witch took my phone to 1.566Ghz and i am loving it.
However, i am a big OC freak and i would like some pointers on any tested kernels above 1.566Ghz, preferably that work well with Mike1986's ROM as i find them to be most stable our of all i have tried (i have tried 3 different types).
Any input is highly appreciated and welcome. Thanks team.

I honestly don't see the benefits except lower battery life and a warmer device, I doubt you'll notice the speed difference past like 1GHz. All of the higher freqs seem pretty much the same and aren't really worth the bother with, use a governor that accesses higher freqs quicker and you won't be needing high freqs.

What governor would you suggest??? also, i know that when using you phone and maybe even playing games i wouldn't see much of a difference between the stock 1.2 Ghz vs 1.5 or 1.9Ghz but it's all about the bragging rights, lol. I like to go to my geeky friends and slappin’ a higher clock frequency than they have on their poor devices or silly I Phones. Also I have to tell you from my tests I do see Mike1986’s latest 3.6.7/4.1.7 Rom using much less battery life than stock Rom. I have noticed about a 10% improvement, maybe even more.
Also i do see a big improvement in Benchmarks. When i was using stock 1.2Ghz setting i was benchmarking much lower than the 1,5Ghz i am at now.
Thanks again for the input.
The benefit of custom ROMS and kernels, is that they are optimized to run well. Unless the chef sucks, most big name ROMS are optimized and more efficient.
I was running 1.2ghz for a while and whenever I'm playing Snes roms it would FC. After bumping it up to 1.72ghz it never did it again. Although 1.72ghz may be overkill for what I use my phone for but everything seems to be running extremely smooth.

I use conservative(810/192), super charger v6, ultra smooth rosie on 4.1.6. I haven't used benches, but they'll be low on this ROM since I'm assuming it's based on the Sense 3.5 leak for sensation.

[Q] Overclocking, speeds, profiles, methods

As some of you might know, the HTC Desire S overclocks very well.
I've done alot of research, and I've found no difference between the MSM8255 chipset our Desire S runs on, and the higher clocked MSM8255T (which runs at 1.4-1.5GHz).
I've created this topic to gather some information on what method you use to over/underclock (built-in, custom, app etc), how high you've clocked your device, what governor you're using, and what temperature you're at.
Right now my Desire S runs at 1.4GHz, incredibly stable, ive stress tested for hours (so far) without any errors, maxing at bout 36,5c temp.
My current method is SetCPU, using 245-1401 interactive scaling.
Please post your findings / preferences / device settings.
I never overclocked my Desire S. Ok sometimes he can be slow, but I don't like overclocking a CPU of a smartphone... Maybe it's because I'm scared to blow him up or something, dunno. I just leave it like it was, in my eyes, the best thing you can do
I'm using OC/UV Beater2 which came in Endymion ROM. My DS is overclocked to 1,2 Ghz and it is very stable, never freezes
But I have a question, what is default undervolt settings? Because I think when I set for example -25 undervolt settings, that will come default setting after a while..
So I dont know what is default voltage... So if someone could tell what is though 122Mhz voltage, I would be happy!
1ghz ondemand. Sometimes 245/768mhz and in games 1.2ghz

Yeah, I've done some research too, and cannot find any differences about the 8255T vs 8255.
Ours are highly capable of going to 1.8Ghz stable.

Same CPU 'issue' with the Arc and Arc S ->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396071
That pretty much sums it up, why the Desire S (some - mine?) overclocks so well..
Same thing they do with desktop CPUs.
Like my old C2D E6600 2.4GHz OCs to 3.4GHz without adding volts and running only on air cooling, 48c after 10-12hrs of stress testing with SLI nvidia cards in the case.
All in all, the MSM8255 and MSM8255T could easily be the exact same chipset/CPU, just at different speeds, some tested more extensively than others.
Has anyone tried running speeds above 1.5GHz+ successfully? 1.5GHz should also be doable, as the HTC Flyer has the MSM8255T and runs at 1.5GHz.

Been looking and couldn't find much info too!
Yeah, i guess the T stands for being tested more.
My Desire OC's very well. I can go to 1.8Ghz stable for very long.
(I don't usually OC though.)
I tried 2.0ghz too for about 10 minutes with no issues. but I quickly went back to 1ghz incase I had any issues.

My CPU clock is as in my siggy. I don't undervolt though.
I have overclocked my phone to 1.5GHz almost all time and I do not see any problem, it's very fast and snappy. I use Sense roms, CM7 and ICS without freezes or something like that. Battery life is nice for me, 1 or 2 days of use.
I've got mine oc at 1.2ghz and uv .75 on everything using ocuv and has been stable for weeks now with good battery life.

Hi there,
Yes I use setcpu. Tiamat kernel is Undervolted by default which is good.
I'm my experience, I'm getting much better battery life with Tiamat kernel.
Are you on the nightly build or the stable version? I heard a few issues with tiamat on nightly builds, but not too sure!
Also a small note; undervolting doesn't help massively with battery life... the battery gain is minimal. On sense based ROMs, I UV by about 125V and it doesn't make a HUGE difference.
I think tiamat has really good battery llife as it has been exclusively optimised for our 8255 CPU by the brialliant Devs
Hope this has been some help to you!

I'm on latest nighly, which doesn't work with tiamat 1.1.5 (no sound). Nightly fixed some bugs which were crucial for me, so no way going back to stable.
Reason i'm asking: on lowveld's hyperions i got 8-9mA consumption while idle, on CM i'm always at 10-15. The min freq on both is 245mHz, which was suggested as lowest stable so the next difference i thought could be the undervolting... From battery stats i see that phone was not awake...

Hmmm... I guess you could just wait for CM 7.2, I think its coming very soon with the bug fixes, so I guess you could go back to stable from there, and use Tiamat.
My lowest CPU clockspeed is 184Mhz on CM (122Mhz on Endymion)
Its very stable for me. No freezes, etc
I use smartass2, so it will throttle up the speed in sleep if 184mhz is too low. When it has many tasks to load etc.
Not to sure how to Manually UV with CM, (as OC beater doesn't work - FC on me)
But on Endymion, OC beater app does the job.

Side note: on sense, i could OC easily to 1.5ghz, possbily more! And it was very stable.
But now with CM7, i OCed to 1.5ghz and it froze... I tried several times too ..
So does software depend on how much the CPU can clock?

Undervolting my sensation

I'm a noobey and I really don't understand how to undervolt my phone could some explain how to undervolt a sensation for better battery,etc.I would greatly appreciate it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
Under voting works by reducing the amount of power drawn to the phone at a selected frequency. You can do this with an app like system tuner or setcpu. However I can't give you a set of voltages for it, because usually there's minor differences in the hardware of people's phones, which means some values may work for some and not others. I would advise to try reducing the values slowly, and do some research on other people's values to see what they have been able to reduce to.

Is this undervolting I use CPU set and I keep it at min 192mhz to 918 MHz.I thought this was called underclocking.Am I wring or correct.How do you actually set stuff to mv?I don't see and settings on there for mv.and what are all the different things that I can actually down set the mv on.could someone please explain alittle more.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
What you did is underclocking, which saves battery but also reduces performance. Undervolting needs a kernel that supports it. You can set the mV for every mHz. I usually put it 50-62,5 mV lower than the standard voltage.
@ mesaman2012
Download System tuner (or Buy its Pro Version)
Start System Tuner.
Tap on "Voltage" button (in 2nd last row)
there u can increase or decrease the voltage (by -12.5mv to +12.5mv)
after u got ur desired voltage Tap on save to save it.
Simple....isnt it ?
I set all the setting to the lowest +12.5 volts.I hope that's alright.any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

Does the way I have my phone underclocked matter with undervolting at all?I keep my phone at 192mhz to 918 MHz for just normal use.I undervolted everything down as far as it would go then I +12.5 and when I was using it right away my phone shut off.so I then did another +12.5 and now so far its running alright.I'm going to do a scalling stability test next.If I'm doing anything incorrect let me know please I'm just a noobey. Thanks!!!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
The only way the underclocking influences the undervolting is that you have less mHz values to set the mV for, so for example if you underclocked to +/- 1200 you can't set the voltage for 1500.

I'll try to report back in a week or so. I went from running the standard 384-1.51 to 384-1.72, to now running 192-810, testing undervolting as well. Will have to play more for sure.
Previously, I had the screen off, not in call max frequency set to 810, while screen on was stock xe. I noticed quite a bit of time at 810, so something is consuming excessive cpu clocks when the screen is off.
The major bummer I'm coming across is that system tuner cannot undervolt below 800mv. Since the phone is ideally spending most of its time at the lowest fid/vid state (192 or 384 for example), there's a good chance of stability below 800mv. I haven't done too much research yet to see if this is possible with some other means, but this may help a bit in standby. Of course, if I could just keep the damn screen off, I'd probably be in better shape.
How much less battery do AMOLED screens consume? Saw a One S today, and it does look pretty damn sleek.

under volting and over clocking

I downloaded android Turner pro...what an amazing application ...anyways I noticed or rather we all noticed that the HTC sensation phones always over heat and hmmm battery our greatest problem...but still some people wont mind still over clocking the amazing phone...respect to this fone bcux irrespective of the fact that its two years old....it still beats most recent fones hands down and also in my opinion even iPhone 4s can't do most things this fone does...there fore iphone4 can't beat our rooted HTC sensation devices lol if im wrong tell me
ok now lemmi get to the point ,I am presently using semsation v5 Rom.... thanks to kerneldev,the room is sleek and nice...I love it. Using sultan kernel r24b5....I over clocked my HTC XE to 1566 CPU frequency and undervolted it by -64MV the phone was fast...yes but the heat was evil lol ?? and battery life wasnt so impressive ?...so here was what I did to reduce the heat a little...
I downloaded Turbo boost mod 3.v
flashed and install via cwm
then I downloaded android tuner from play store
then I underclocked my phone with the Android tuner to 1182 CPU frequency (this is the default CPU frequency for HTC xe)
then I undervolt using android tuner to 950mv...I pressed save and renamed the setting using android turner...then I pressed on boot by the top left corner of the android Turner screen...I went back to setting the CPU frequency and marked the 1182 settings to on boot also....now reboot the fone.
im a heavy user...my 4g or H network signal is always on....my phone stopped over heating like before...but it still get hot tho...
also u can still keep undervolting with the android turner...but if it gets to the voltage that ur phone's CPU can't handle...the phone automatically reboots itself and set itself back to the default CPU voltage....awesome right?
note: this is just a suggestion....im not responsible for any faulty fone tho and do nandroid backupw as usual...
if I helped for those complaining about over heated fone pls click the thanks button ? cheers?

Hi, Stock Sensation is 1188Mhz, XE is 1566Mhz ....
you can Also Downclock at 972Mhz for max and 384Mhz for min.
Stock fréquencies will be Undervolted normally , I think that its not necessary to undervolt our Sensation.
To what temperature reached your mobile????
I would not recommend downclock below 384MHz for minimum. I had lags and reboots.

That depends on the hardware in your device. Just because all the chips come off the same assemply line oddly doesn't mean they are all created equal.
I run mine at 192 min and have never had a reboot as a result of it.
Other people can put it on 192 and it'll reboot every single time over and over until they raise the min speed.
The only way to see if your phone can handle 192 is to try it for a day and see if it's stable. It might be, and it might not be. If it's not, there's probably no settings changes you could do to make it better. It's probably a hardware thing.
I have no problem with the minimum frequency of 192Mhz, but as I have to test several Rom, I just prefer to leave the minimum at a frequency goes everywhere so 384Mhz

Does anyone here have overclocked Nexus 5?

I was wondering if any of you overclocked your device and why, did it help you and do you use it on daily basis? I was thinking to oc my phone but for me it seems that overclocking is pretty pointless.
I did over clock, ive also disabled two cores and left two overclocked. I now under clock slightly to save battery as lollipop is much faster so I don't need to over clock and if I use an aosp ROM there is little lag with good battery life. I think over clocking is pointless unless gaming and that's coming from an over clock addict lol.
It's pointless except if you're benchmarking.
During intensive tasks other than benchmarking, it's even more pointless, as it will hit thermal throttle/shutdown even faster.
Does it help with overall Ui smoothness and multitasking/app opening?

2.2GHz is already plenty enough. If it does not feel smooth then it's because your kernel's CPU governor doesn't make the CPU go up to 1.7GHz-2.2GHz enough. This is something you can tune yourself.

You mean 2.3? And it is very smooth but I'm just wondering if it will help me get more juice out of Cpu and make phone even faster [emoji14]

Same thing, 2256MHz is the only 2.2/2.3GHz step on the Nexus 5.
If it is already smooth, it won't make anything smoother, it will just use up battery.
The nexus speed is more than enough for me ?? , no need for overclocking
