Overheating and should i buy a new device - HTC Sensation

hi guys,
overheating is a known problem of the sensation, and lots of people gave advices on solving this problem,here are the methods i tried:
under voltage
underclock(to1000Mhz)
buying a new battery
take off the case
etc....
but.....these methods DIDN'T WORK.
i dont play games at all,just use 3g data to browse the web and whatsapp and the phone just heat up instantly when i turn it on.
is there any possible methods that can keep my phone cool but i dont need to take it to the north pole? if i cant solve this annoying problem,i'm gonna buy a new phone.
if i really need to buy a new phone ,which one should i choose?i dont have much money

What's your ROM and kernel?
You should try different kernels and see how they work.
If you want a new phone now, I would probably buy the HTC one. Otherwise I would wait until the middle of may (to see what Google had unveiled at Google IO) to buy a new phone. Android 4.3 is supposed to be unveiled

thanks for your replying
i have tried many rom,such as arhd,viper s1.6.3, 3.0.1,miui jb....and i am now using albinoman887's cm10.1 apr26 build(without changing kernel and underclock to 1080mhz, 2d gpu200, 3d gpu 300).
and for kernels:sebsation's overclock,sultan kernel(sense) ,brick,PYD-X
hboot1.27,s-off,firmware 3.33
but i think is my phone 's problem,because whatever rom or kernel,i still need to put it into the fridge frequently.
btw,i have heard that the one x also have the heating problem,and its tregra processer seems slower than other processer(snapdragon ) running the same frequency. can anyone using the onex/x+ tell me if these problems exist?

Lol...40 c is nowhere near overheating... Overheating is like 50 C. Going up to 46-48 C is normal when you are gaming. 44-46 C is the range when I browse the internet/YouTube.
Anything above 55~60= sensation explodes

Ouch. Okay. But sometimes it gets hotter than 40. Like 46 upwards. Besides my battery last for only 3 to 4 hours when I browse d I get Dr and Twitter. Fb. And shii
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium

I think 46-50 is pretty normal for heavy internet usage, but anything above 50 you should definitely give your sensation a rest because it can automatically shut down if it's too hot. Also, I wouldn't over clock your phone past 1.5/1.6 GHz.
3-4 hours on a stock is decent. If you need a better battery, I would buy the anker 1900 mAh. Since the stock sensation battery is only 1520 mAh(which is terrible), it's not that surprising to see it last only 3-4 hours. Your battery life also depends on the age of it. I would consider changing a battery if it is 2+ years old...

I'm not talking about battery overheating,but the cpu.i use kernel tuner to check the temp. ,average is 60c,and the highest is 83c.battery temp is always incorrect,25c????!!!!(what the hell?!?!?!)
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium

Lol... 83 C? Is that even possible?
Can you post some screenshots?
I think 60 C is fine for the CPU processor, since the battery is only at about 41-42 C. The CPU temp should be higher than the battery temp so I think 60 is fine for the CPU. On the other hand, 83 is way too hot.

Well, like I said in my other post, there's a difference between CPU temp and battery temp. as long as your battery temp is not more than 60.
Of you want to keep your CPU temp low, then don't over clock your cpu too much ( or don't over clock at all). Also, don't overclock 2D or 3D GPU either. That might help lower the temps.
If you are getting crazy number for your temps 25 C for battery, I would try to erase battery stats in recovery mode (4EXT) even though people say that erasing the stats do absolutely nothing. Hopefully that helps. if that doesn't work, I would try sultans kernel with aroma installer so that you can customize your preferences.

Hmm... have you tried different ROMs? what about formatting all partitions and reflashing the ROM?
I'm running out of ideas... The last I can think of is full/partial wake locks, but that is not completely relevant either. See if you have a certain app that is constantly running in the background. If you need a helpful app, I would try wakelock detector from the Google play store...

It would be a value somewhere that could be changed but will require some digging around and probably root access.
Perhaps the limitation is built into the camera app itself. Does this limitation occur with any 3rd party camera app?
This limitation has been the same for all HTC phones released in the last 12 months or so. My old Desire HD used to do the same thing when the battery was "low".
it is pretty annoying, im sure a developer will find it soon, just needs a little digging around like jivemaster said.
Yeah, it is annoying. Gotta have your battery charged in case you go out at night I guess.
oh alright then
It is very annoying for me also. I usually go out for half hour and have 30-40% battery charged so mostly it goes below 30% and not having falsh enabled is a big mess. Since I am a photography lover & I love to capture precious moments. Someone should come up with with a way around.

Any Solutions Yet
Have you tried disabling power saver?
i always have it disabled
I had same problem. Solution for me was upgrading to latest ROM (2.3.4 ->1.45.401.2 ) ofcourse original, HTC ROM, because I bought this phone for sense 3.0 (i don't know why people write new ROM without sense and say ... My ROM is better... There is something wrong with them...I think.. ...

Flash a custom kernel. I know faux's kernel's have lowered the limit to 10%.
Controlled by the kernel.
Some custom kernels lower the threshold (as long as power saver is off).
Check the Sensation Development section and read up on kernels.
Faux and Bricked both offer lower thresholds, I believe. Check Unity as well.
The features and changelogs will be in first or second post of Kernel thread.
P.
I think it is great idea! What if you got ALOT of stuff to backup, and flash at the same time, and suddenly the battery runs out.. Think about that.

Sorry to hear about your HTC Desire Z, that's annoying. When you get your confidence back I'd recommend trying HyperSensation http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302969
It doesn't overclock the CPU (as standard) and there really is no need to do so, I run it using a slightly tweaked (lower screen off max and lower minimums for both) version of the settings in post #3 (with bricked kernel)

There is a lot of things that can brick your phone. Not only the kernel.
I would recommended the Rom posted above (and in my sig). I have like 20 hours battery time, with moderate use. If you flash a new kernel, you can underclock, and maybe get more battery time. You really dont need ~1200 MHz on some roms, if you don't play a lot of games and so.

Honestly, I don't see why or how wifi tethering could in any possible way brick your phone, since it's a given option from the factory.. I mean I'm still new to the HTC phones so I could be wrong, but I highly doubt that tethering is one or if any a reason why you bricked your other phone.

I have tried all HyperSensation versions since 0.2 and can prove that it's lightning fast even being reduced to 800MHz maximum. Everything works great, except CSipSimple which plays no sound with it.
Without CSipSimple I've got about 60 hours of life on batteries with about 20 hours of wifi-connection, 6 hours of playing mp3's and about 40 minutes of phone-calls.
BTW, SIP-callers somehow interfere with phone.android app with fatal errors and force close events while trying to make a call. With ARHD I do not notice such behavior.

Don't do gpu over clock then.. That will cool down your device a bit.. Also.. Try some under volting the kernel (there is a uv mod.. You can use that) .. It prevents heating a bit too

You should try that for yourself because not every device can handle every voltage decreasing the voltage makes that there is not so much electricity going trough the CPU you save battery and your battery is not overheating so fast

Mine did too with both stock and ARHD roms. Thought its the battery getting getting warm for the longest time but it turned out to be CPU/GPU. I'm using Viper S now and do not overclock CPU/GPU. Works well and heat is down significantly. Still gets warm occasionally (GPS, Browser, Google Now) but not as much and battery last longer.
I tried Vipers S Rom but everything ran VERY choppy and what govner do you recommend to get that cold GPU/CPu effect?

When you try different ROMs and have query ask in the right ROM forum. You'll have a better chance for a right answer.
There isn't a tremendous amount of things you can do to bring down the temperature significantly. As everyone said, under volting, and under clocking can do a little bit.
It isn't a big problem, because it shouldn't pass, from what I remember, 43-46 degrees Celsius. Of course it will vary with what your doing, playing games will make it hotter, especially if you are in a hot environment.
Don't worry too much about it.

To Cyanogen Mod 10.1, And on 3g my battery goes down in like, yes what, I guess an Hour. then its dead. is that Normal?
It wasn't as Terrible on sense. I just wonder? Any smart Android-Hero's to explain?

Rom and Kernel? (Just ordered alot of different batteries from china, all with more than 10x good ratings each. Also a 3800mha one for 80bucks. i got the money for it.. so it doesn't bother me.)

I used to use albinoman cm10.1 but dont remeber what kernel i flashed, last week i flashed viper s, and seriously this rom is a drainer, it drains the battery in 4 hours

Damn Boi, I'll look into my 2450mha (said to work perfectly, and fit under original cover.) and Continue using CM.
I get 3 days easily on albino's cm10.1 aosp rom. With an banker battery.
So the ROM isn't the problem. We have hashed battery life questions to death in the ROM's development thread and the answer always comes back to user settings or faulty hardware, usually the battery is just old.
But battery life does NOT suck on all non sense ROMs. That is just bad information.
Give a more specific description of your set up and we can help you improve battery life.

Download battery calibrate on the play store, it wipes your battery stats and writes new ones. Also, check what kernel governor yours is on. Badass or on demand are the best.

Good, Lets get You that Information then.
The device is an Fourteen month old Sensation XE, with that 17xx Battery.
I bought it two weeks ago Used but Just as new, Not even Tiny pocket scratches.
It was Pre-rooted and s-off using the Wiretrick by the Preowner.
Its now Running Albino's CM10.1, (03~05).
My CPU is Clocked at 15xxMhz and 398 Min I believe,
GPU's and stuff Aren't Changed. Its on the Ondemand Governor and SIO I/O Thingy.
-
I Go from Home Charged Everyday, with an HTC Certified dock,
I get from the countryside into the city and Jump onto 3g, the battery stays for a five minutes on "Charged" and jumps down to 95-80-7x and Finally 65 where it takes a little break, that goes in well, an half hour. Then i mostly get really Upset and angry at HTC and Cry out to my Friends with better phones telling how **** mine is, Now i'll get my replacement Batteries and see, I'll instantly report here how they all each Did.
Wish me Luck Developers!

Do not waste your time with this. This is snake oil nonsense. Wiping battery stats has a function, but this isn't it. Wiping battery stats will do nothing to help your battery life. Nothing.
The battery stats are wiped every time it charges anyway.

Your battery is old. That's probably the problem. Use the Banker battery when you get it. That's the sollution. Also you are clocking the CPU pretty high. If you dont have a specific reason to run it at 1.5ghz as the max like gaming or something, back it off to like 1.2.

Yes. Its high.
If you have a specific need for it to be that high, go ahead. That's 1.5 is what the chip is designed for. It can handle it. At 1.7 you are pushing it pretty hard.
But those speeds won't do anything to improve the performance of everyday use like sending texts, making calls, or even in games like angry birds. Ifnyounplay more graphically intensive games, those speeds will be helpful. If you don't they are a waste of battery. Either way though they are using more battery at those speeds, whether you needs those speeds or not.
Backing it off to 1.2 will prevent the device from 'kicking on the afterburners' and dumping battery fast when its at max CPU. Again, if your performance suffers then this isn't the answer for you.
You will also want to use the on demand or badass governors to keep the clock speed regulated. An governor like Performance will keep the CPU running at top speed all the time. The phone will run great, but the battery will die in a hurry.

I do need it to play vector and real racing 3, but i did set it up to badass

Well if you need the extra performance then you need it. But the trade off is always going to be decreased battery life with that. Nothing can fix that. Its not a bug, its physics. It takes more gas to go fast.

+1. If you take a look at the manual of your battery, it will say something like "500 recharge cycles over the life of the battery" (this is from the ANKER 1900mAh).. that's around 1,5 - 2 years of use. So depending on how often the previous owner of your Sensation charged the phone, the battery could be dead now.
New Battery
Instead of an "Anker" i got an Pisen Battery, said to have around 1780mha but actually is 1870. It works Perfectly and i get six hours screen on time now. it just still goes weird, and sometimes stays on 72 for long and 39 for long, but works just fine still. Just not a really reliable Percentage. I get to test 3g time tomorrow. Hopefully more than one a half hour and burning hands.

High Heating Sensation

Hello sensation user.
I wonder how to get temp use internet,game? I'm stressed by using sensation. Heat issue. I checked my sensation temp is 50~60 c. Vey hot. Is My sensation have hardware issue? Or normal? I think sensation is very hoter than other phones. Now my fingers skin is alittle damaged by heating sensation. Sensation is good device. But what can i fix this problem?

What's your kernel and ROM? you might want to change your kernel and see if that helps to cool your phone a little bit.
