It actually stopped working for me after 2 reboots...I thought it was consistent but I probably was just getting lucky. Now I'm stuck with a phone with no usable buttons. The annoying part is that the buttons seem to be working fine in HBOOT and when the phone is powered down, but don't work at all other times.

[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
you mean thermometer? lol... dont you think it a bit too far to include the hardware? i mean... in what sense it could be used? :D
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Actually, it's not too much effort to include a small sensor on the motherboard that could detect temperature and other barometric functions. The sensor itself doesn't have to be all that large; a 5mm sensor is all that's needed, plus the firmware.

As to how practical a weather station would be in a device like a Streak, probably not all that practical since all the functions would be inaccurate due to the act of setting the device in one's pocket. But it could be fun. :)
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
hmmm... now that you mention it... well... 5" screen, 1ghz cpu... yeah.. why not include other hardware as well... that would make the eyebrows goes up... :D

Hey guys,

I wanted to know some basic things about the temperatures of the phone, both battery and CPU. The thing I would like to know is, what are normal temperatures of the battery and CPU, and what is not normal (not healthy) for the phone itself.

I'm asking this because my phone gets warmer and warmer since a month or so, the CPU easily gets to 63 degrees celcius by just watching the homescreen or browsing. I've tried many ROMs and kernels, but the heat still is the same on those.

Please give some feedback.

This is what I got so far:

CM9 Nightly's

- Stock kernel - 63 degrees

- GLaDOS kernel (NO OC) - 63 degrees

- Trinity (1344mhz) - 63 degrees

AOKP #39 (working on it)

- Stock kernel - 42 degrees

- GLaDOS -41 degrees

MIUI 2.6.8

- Stock miui kernel?? - 60± degrees

*All these results are from browsing the internet and other minor things.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Hi,

There is already a ton of thread about the temperatures...:

:eek:

I stop here...

To answer your question the CPU temp depends of your settings like overclock,undervolt,rom/kernel,room temperature,etc...Actually what is your rom/kernel and settings?

Some roms/kernels suffers of heat problem according to some users...

63°C if you do nothing expect just watch your screen and nothing running in background like a download...yes it's hot.Maybe an app in bachground wich cause an higher CPU load->heat,like Facebook app if I remember right.

63°C while browsing,nothing abnormal...

And if you check your CPU temp just after browsing...wait 1 min (or little more) before the temperature begins to decrease for have a correct/real CPU temp in "light" use.

Also if you use your phone while charging it heats,much more...

But strange your CPU temp is the same (63°C),like you said,as browsing or do nothing?If it's 63°C just watching the screen...while browsing it should be 80°C!

You said you have flash many roms/kernels,begin from scratch with a stock rom/kernel for see.If it's good try another custom rom/kernel.Makes a full wipe between each flash...

The stock temp limit before thermal throttling is 64°C (lower CPU freq to prevent "dammage") and the max before the CPU shutdown is 110°C...The extreme protection :D and the extreme overheating :D and this for those who have a kernel wich allow to modify the CPU temp limit.

Also,take a look at the links above ;)

You want feedback:

Actually with Franciscofranco's kernel->in sleep:22°C,in light use (settings,home screen,etc...):about 40°C,while browsing in 3g:about 55°C,while benchmarking:about 75/85°C...Overclock to 1.53Ghz,no undervolt.

And for battery temp,even if I don't watch regularly it's about 30/35°C,depends of my use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] br13an:
Viking,

Thanks for your reply man, this is a sort of answer I looked for all day (yes believe me I've searched the forums(they should optimize search results), I will try some other combinations.

CM9 with all kinds of kernels is pretty hot 63± degrees for me, I will check out other ROMS with kernels and will post back here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
If it is heating up while not doing anything, it is likely that you have an app that is running in the background and eating up processes. Are you using a task killer? Also if the phone ever gets to a temperature that is harmful it will shut itself off.

"Long is the way, and hard, that out of hell leads up to light."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] br13an:
Havent got anything really bigg running in the background, the phone doesnt get's too warm when the screen is just out, only when using it. The phone shouldn't get hot from those processes, only use a bit more battery but I dont mind that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
If it is getting up to 63c when using it there is something going on in the background.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] MadeInFinland:
I have searched and searched and can't really find a detailed description on how to use the other options in mobile odin pro. First i choose the kernel I wan't to flash and then what? What about recovery, system, data, cache and all the other alternatives? Btw, my phone is rooted and I use a custom rom.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] MadeInFinland:
Directions?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] norpan111:
Chose the kernel you want then just go? It's pretty much straight forward
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] MadeInFinland:
Ok. Just flashed it and everything seems to work. Thanks. :-)

Just one tiny thing, the phone cant find the sd card. XD

Den store har talat.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] MadeInFinland:
Was I supposed to wipe dalvik and cache before flashing?!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] norpan111:
Doesn't the place you found the kernel had instructions? I don't wipe before installing kernels.. And regarding your sdcard, again, ask in the thread/place where you found the kernel. It could be a known bug etc
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] MadeInFinland:
Ok, thanks.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Brilliancy:
When I take pictures of certain people with my camera, their skin appears much more red than it should while in auto mode, but switching the mode to portrait fixes it. Anyone else have a similar issue?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vopwriter:
Yes, thought my daughter looked sunburned on stock settings. I just backed the saturation setting down a notch and the pics seen more natural looking now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Freelancerx:
if you are looking at the images using your phone they will look too saturated. its the phone screen it tends to over-saturate colors. If you look at the same image on your computer you will notice that they look much more natural. something to keep in mind, since people will be looking at the things you share via a computer and not your phone. so if you adjust to make them look ok on your phone you are going to make them look not that great on a computer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] as30a85:
Hi xda,

I was unlocking and installing AOKP ROM this week and I've hit a problem that I can't get past. I apologise that this seems like so many other questions already posted, but I haven't found a solution in the threads I've read. I also apologise that I write verbose explanations; I just want to be as clear as possible.

My new TF201 was on ASUS firmware .21 so I used bpear's viperMod/Wolf849-based tool to downgrade to ASUS firmware WW .15.

I then used bpear's tool to root it after downgrading, and then unlocked the bootloader using ASUS' tool. Before anyone asks why I bothered to root if I was going to unlock, I didn't entirely understand what was required to flash a custom ROM on the TP; the process was much simpler on my HTC Desire.

After unlocking the TF201 I used bpear's tool to flash CWM. I downloaded AOKP (aokp_tf201_build-38.zip) and put it on the internal space - I don't have an SD card in it. I rebooted the device into CWM and wiped Dalvik cache, reset factory settings, then went to "Install from zip" and selected the AOKP zip. It ended successfully (i.e: no errors, all messages on the screen appeared normal), so I reboot the device.

And after rebooting it hangs at the splashscreen. I tried to reflash AOKP but there was no change, so I rebooted into the bootloader menu and, without thinking about the consequences, selected to wipe the device. Now I can't reflash AOKP because I wiped the device, and I can't restore a nandroid backup because I didn't take one before flashing AOKP.

I rebooted to the bootloader and selected Fastboot mode while the device was connected to my computer (Windows 7 x64). In Windows, I can see in the taskbar that a device is recognised as "fastboot", and drivers are installed successfully, so I type in the command 'fastboot devices' which simply returns a new line. I reboot into CWM and try to use adb to connect to the device, but there is no device detected in Windows and the command 'adb devices' indicates there is nothing found.

At this point I'm unsure what step to take next. Any tips would be useful.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cam30era:
The command "adb devices" will not show your device unless it's booted, so what you're seeing is normal. You may want to try pushing a ROM to your TFP via adb fastboot.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beekay201:
there is no 'adb fastboot' command

@OP, you have to reinstall/point windows again (while in recovery) to the drivers manually. it's the same drivers, yes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] as30a85:
Hi xda,

I got everything sorted a couple of days after this thread was started.

I followed the same procedure described in the OP, with two changes:

1. I swapped AOKP for Virtuous Prime.

2. I installed the Universal Naked Drivers .

My TF201 is functioning very well on Virtuous Prime ROM. I am pleasantly surprised with the battery life but sufficiently annoyed with the wireless that I set up an AP at the other end of the apartment just for the TF201.

While I was searching for a solution, I read on several sites that it was possible to push files to the tablet while in recovery mode/CWM. An example is this thread. I have to wonder: am I misunderstanding the steps being provided, or is the information being provided is incorrect or incomplete?

With regards to fastboot, I did mention in the OP that fastboot wasn't functional.

Cheers.

[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Is a Ics bricked kernel for sense or a nonsense Rom.a orc bricked kernel is a sense kernel correct?could someone please explain how to tell the differences.
[HTC Sensation] davebugyi:
No, I saw Bricked only for Sense.

For the difference I do not know the exact changes. Probably in the driver files and settings for HTC made stuff.
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Thanks that good to know so basically bricked kernels are only for sense roms.
[HTC Sensation] davebugyi:
Yes, correct. For more information visit: http://bricked.de/ :)
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
That's not right I ran a bricked kernel on cm9 nightlies and that's a aosp Rom nonsense.
[HTC Sensation] davebugyi:
This does not mean that you can not run CM9 with a sense kernel.

I ran CM7 with a sense kernel and vice versa on my desire - but that combination was causing issues and depending on ROM - freezes.

But for the Sensation it is a bit different - I remember CM9 with the stock ICS Sense kernel running, so maybe bricked is universal, you should ask the dev :)
[HTC Sensation] irrelephant:
The developer of the bricked kernel has yet to release an aosp kernel... So if you infact did flash his kernel on an aosp ics rom then it was either his aosp gb kernel, or his sense kernel! Either of which will likely not have full functionality! So you come here and asked questions and receive the answers and then tell us we are wrong...
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
I'm sorry I was not aware that you can run a sense bricked kernel on aosp roms sorry.and that's for the information.
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Is it true that a Irc kernel is a sense kernel?what does Irc and gb bricked kernels stand for?and as of now bricked kernels are some what universal.

Hey Guys,,

I just have something to share and I want your advice ,,,

I have faced the yellow tint problem with my XPS but sadly I lost the warranty card, any on like me??

anyway I contacted many service centers in different countries and they didn't agree to fix my phone without the warranty card!!

As a last solution it looks like am going to fix it by myself I have to pay for the fix!!!

So, guys anyone of you could help me with a solution to get free repair from Sony?? if sadly not how much it will cost the screen any ideas?? :confused::confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zlotvor:
Sorry for that, but if you lost your warranty card no-one will repair it for free. The price for the screen is most probably around half price of the phone. Maybe it's cheaper to you to stick with that tinted display.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pshdo:
Can they not help you with that at the store you bought it? ??

In denmark you don't mere the card, just the store receipt...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ahmedoxo:
"most probably around half price of the phone" :eek::eek:

the receipt is not enough unfortunately,,
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
What country? In Europe all you need is a proof or purchase that has the IMEI on it. A store receipt will do.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zlotvor:
In perfect world it would be enough to identify yourself because they already have your details, they know what did you purchased and when, how you paid for that item etc.

Basically they're just make extra profit if you lose that worthless piece of paper (just try with fake receipt, they will immediately know it's fake).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scratchling:
I didnt even get a warranty card....?

Just brought it to the local sony repair centre(outsourced) and they took the imei down and repaired it under warranty.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ahmedoxo:
thank you guys for your replays

I bought it from Dubai UAE, thats the problem they said I have to bring the warranty card its wired!! I mean its sony product its only few months since its released not even a year to say it has no warranty on it!!

if anyone of you guys could manage to contact your local sony centers and they agree to repair it , I can send it then!!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
Recently I disabled the best wi-fi performance option (I enabled it on accident while messing around with settings on launch day) which obviously increased my battery life dramatically by actually allowing my phone to go into deep sleep. But now I hit a new issue.

Before I go on, I want to state that I DID apply the SmartSync fix and that my data IS working while my phone is in deep sleep.

New emails I receive with Gmail app do not get pushed to my phone as they should. They are anywhere from 5-15 minutes late if they even show up at all. If I happen to turn my screen on, automatically I get the notification of new emails.

Is anyone else having this issue with Gmail or any other app? I find it strange that while I have data (wi-fi/3g) enabled and working with the screen off, emails still come in delayed.

Any help would be appreciated. I have searched around and most of the answers I came up with (regarding HTC devices like the One X) had to do with SmartSync messing up the connection or someone not having the notifications enabled. I'm at a loss 0.0

EDIT: I tested this with Google Talk had my main account up in Gmail and in another browser windows my other Gmail account. Added both of them, talked to my self, if my device screen was off, I would either get it 1-2 minutes late or not at all. Once I turned my screen back on, the notifications poured in. I also tried the same scenario with my main Gmail account logged off (in case it was canceling out the messages to my phone, which it wasn't) and I had the same outcome. I edited the title to reflect that this isn't a Gmail only issue.

EDIT 2: Did more tests, I tried turning Wi-Fi off completely and running the same tests as above to my surprise everything worked as expected. I initially thought it might be because of my 5Ghz Wi-Fi band, so I tried it all again on my 2.4Ghz channel -- had the same problems as before. Somehow the issue pertains to your screen being off and Wi-Fi being on.

EDIT 3: I just tried streaming Pandora and shutting the screen off (maybe WiFi WAS somehow shutting off) Pandora kept playing no problem. I messaged myself on Talk, got the notification right away. This is very bizarre 0.0 But it might confirm this only happens when the phone is in deep sleep mode... Still doesn't answer why it doesn't happen on 3G or why notifications sometimes still come through.

EDIT 4: Still no fix but I have discovered that for some reason if the screen is off ANY data doesn't go through. Let me explain better:

If I have some thing like Pandora running then it will continue to run once I shut my screen off. But if WiFi isn't being used and I turn my screen off and then lets say I try to connect to it with Cerberus or ping it from my PC or something it will not even though the router reports it as connected.

Very strange behavior.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
This is interesting...maybe the wifi performance toggle is associated to the smartsync, and all?.....I will say that with it unchecked I am getting some really really good battery life here compared to previous phones....but I also notice at times when emails are not pushed till I wake the screen during the day....Also the fact my wifi doesn't automatically reconnect to my house when I get back from work till I wake the screen...little things like that...

Havent messed with the best performance setting but will try it today now...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
Try installing this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.logicvoid.powersaversettings&hl=en and unchecking "put data connection to sleep." It may not solve the issue but its worth a shot.

Have it, and it is unchecked. That's the weird thing, wi fi doesn't actually turn all the way off because SOMETIMES I do get the push notifications (late, however).

Let me know if that works, if so at least I know I'm not the only one xD

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
It's definitely not a hardware problem because if that was the case the phone wouldn't work with wi fi almost at all. My wi-fi connection is rock solid even when the screen is off, just for some reason it won't notify I have the messages until the screen gets turned on.

I did some tests on my gf's stock phone and she's having the same issues, I told her to do some tests on her parents wi-fi when she goes there. I wonder if sgt slaughter has any news.

Btw if you definitely need them on time and need to be on wi fi but don't care about battery life that much just enable best wi fi performance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] finfan71:
Actually more like a Smart Sync break ... The built in settings/app put your data connections to sleep when your phone goes to deep sleep; this is done to save battery when phone not in use for extended period.

Some folks hate losing the data connections so a flashable "fix" is available for the "problem" ... Look around; you'll find it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wlpywd:
its a sense problem, there's a thread in the one x forums on how to fix it. I'll post when I get home if I can find it. it shuts down to a 'power save' mode after a while plus after midnight or 11 or something.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AardvarkAttack:
Just wanted to update that I installed a custom rom that contains the WiFi fix mentioned and although my WiFi doesn't seem to drop how it did before (at least after one day) my notifications are anywhere between 4-10 minutes late on average through WiFi. This seems to be across the board for Exchange email, Gmail & Google Voice.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
Yes my setup also had the wi-fi fix, I can even see my phone connected to the router when the screen is off, the connection is strong.

I had a suspicion it was probably the basic transfer rate of the browser and for some reason I could not adjust this on my fancy 100 dollar router with dd-wrt flashed onto it so I set up a repeater with my older router on stock settings. It seems like the notifications are coming through better now (albeit not instantly) but at least I don't have to turn my screen on every time. It might be a placebo effect or just luck (because at times it does work even with my other router).

EDIT: Ignore the italicized sentence. It was just a stroke of luck, the problem came back.

I'm out of ideas at this point xD
