[HTC One S] unrealii:
I've got a weird issue. I'm running the stock T-Mobile ROM with the only real modification being Swype as my keyboard. Sometimes it seems the phone will get very warm and stop responding. I can still open the home screen, go through apps, etc, but Internet/Data will fail to work. I can access the dialer, but it will refuse to dial. When I press a text box for the keyboard to come up to type, nothing registers within the box as I type. Using the home screen widget to turn on and off wireless and GPS, those buttons stop responding as well.

Has this happened to anyone? I'm close to performing a factory reset to hopefully rid this issue. Rebooting the phone seems to fix it, but it has happened about half a dozen times within the past 2 weeks now.
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
Best bet is to factory reset which, of course, will dump all your apps, settings, etc etc... An even better bet is to root and install a custom ROM; but that is your call.

Another option is to get a task manager / battery monitor and see if a specific app is causing your phone to act up. Look for things like most time on or most CPU usage or most battery consuming, depending on what app you use.
[HTC One S] usaff22:
Agreed. Try a factory reset, or send it to HTC.

Friend just called me few minutes ago and now I'm still on the phone it's been like 10 minutes and now my phone is starting to get very hot warm.

Should I get worried?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bloodrain954:
Yes
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Harkadenn:
Any tips then?

Or should I go to the store and exchange it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WarRaven:
Curiously, were you holding it in your left hand during the call?

Mine gets hot too. It happens during a call, using GPS, and playing graphically intensive games. I think the unibody design has some part in causing the heat issues.

The phone does cool down pretty quickly after finishing one of the activities mentioned above.

No games. Nothing else before, just regular browsing. No GPS either and it was right hand and right ear.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheEmpyre:
My phone gets a little hot and I always use my left hand to talk -- is there something about holding the phone in the left hand? :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WarRaven:
Well, oddly might be, I think there could be a little signal death grip happening.

I know I can choke out my WiFi using phone in left hand an cause it to warm up.

Though it might not be the issue here, just an out there idea and thought of mine.

Other oddity I have noticed, every day about 2pm until 5ish, it runs way hotter.

I have written that off as poor signal due to schools letting out and sudden increase of bandwidth Usage by younger users.

So I did had the same problems as these folks (accidentally formatted internal SD, boot menu all weird) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1304876 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1569332 and read the solutions.

Same issue, in CWmod got into a menu with no back option, tried to pull the battery instead of choosing any partition, but that freaking back panel is such a pain to open up I pressed power while trying to open it. Doh!

The only thing I am really asking is, everything seems to be working fine, the boot screen is ugly, but everything boots/works/cwm works, etc. Running Joker's CM10/GSM. I see the deleted partition holds prl and other such info, is any of the info important for GSM users (and I don't really plan on running back to sprint)? If so I will go through the SBF/repair process? My wifi and bluetooth has it's mac addresses (Which I saw on the atrix forums may have been tied to the PSD)

Is there any other function of the now cleared partition that may cause issues? Or am I in the clear, your speculation and musings are appreciated.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Antieco:
Did you solve it? im having same issue.. same situation, but i havent formated, just partitioned the internal sd on 0mb... all files are still there, but im having issues with the touch screen, and buttons.

[Motorola Photon 4G] hoslayer13:
Try running a search on thru xda or Google or other. Your PDS was deleted. The only issue you will have is if you ever SBF back to stock it will be stuck tryig to connect to sprint. Seeing as your a GSM user it doesn't matter. Airplane made would solve that. Otherwise just flash a boot logo and your good.

For the Atrix, you must flash the pds-fix file which will help you out with the digitizer.

thats whi put down feedback, and opinions on whats the best rom...i understand that people like diff things but just wanted some info and feed back on them
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
You can't rely on other peoples feed back, every phone reacts differently to ROMs, they may all be infuses but they all are actually quite different...none of its hardware is exact...same goes with any device...they are all built to a certain scale...like as long as its with in 5-10 inches its OK, but if its under 5 or over 10 inches then its not OK (that was just something easy to relate to ..switch those measurements with what the hardware can stand temp wise, oc wise, UV wise, everything...)

Thats why some people can under volt there phone by a lot and other people can barely under volt there phone...why some people have no problem overclocking and other people experience reboots, heating...etc

That is why you really need to just try them yourself and see what happens...

Personally for me. I like Paranoid Android. I love being able to change the DPI and overall look of the apps. I like making the text smaller on most of them so I can fit more on the screen.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Souron29:
Every Android user is obsessed with battery. Now battery consumption depends on two things

1)How u use the phone/tablet(Obviously)

2)The apps you use(also obviously)

U can get the maximum battery if the apps closed after their use was over or if the apps didn't open when we didn't want them. But fortunately/unfortunately this doesn't happen in android. Instead apps may start on their own using something people call 'Receivers' and keep wakelocks which consumes battery. This maybe good as some apps need to sync. But maybe sometimes there is no need for that.So if we can kill these receivers then we can save huge amounts of battery.

You are going to require ROOT for this method to work. There are many apps which let you kill receivers but most of them kill specific ones. I use Autorun manager which lists all of them. But its not free. So get the full version

1)open the app and go for advanced

2)It will list all the apps with receivers

3)search for the apps which have a receiver for CONNECTIVITY CHANGE and BOOT. U will have to search manually. Click on an app, then click at it receivers to see if they start for connectivity change.

4) now disable only those receivers whose apps don't need to start automatically

5)continue like that. U can also close receivers for package(apk) modification

6) you can close receivers for system apps by enabling in settings but that's risky and don't touch any app unless u r sure that its safe to close its receiver

There are apps (lidroid toolbox and rom toolbox) which will allow you to directly kill receivers for boot and connectivity change but they won't list all receivers. Additionally u can kill other receivers by using own intelligence.

Remember every action has a reaction.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Souron29:
works on every rooted phone and tablet. will soon provide a safe list :) cheers
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Souron29:
Startup manager just disables boot receivers. Rom toolbox is better and easier. But not efficient. it itself has receivers which sucks battery but doesn't allow to disable them
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Souron29:
If You r new to this thing then don't go to system apps modification. limit urself to downloaded apps. This method disables receivers meaning they won't start automatically but u can start them wen u need(that's great)

1)If u use Facebook or friendcaster then disable boot and network change and connectivity change and any other except the C2dm receivers.

2)Some backup managers and file managers have package modification receiver. close that. but don't close schedule receivers

its just using common sense. Don't touch anything which looks important. Like sms receiver for sms apps. If u disable them then u won't get notifications

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Orange_furball:
So after 7 months with my white Note, I have grown tired of it.

The color that is. White. I thought I'd love it, but I guess after I got white glass for my 3GS and changed that I hit the level where staring at this white piece of crap is driving me CRAZY! Okay its not that serious, but the color is bugging me. I plan on switching the side-frame-bezel-thing, rear frame, and battery door with ones from the "Pebble Blue" one but one problem remains. The screen.

Does anyone know of an easy way (or a cheap way) to change the color? New LCD assemblies are $200 and that's too much. I don't want a half black half white phone so its all the way or no way.

Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] natethegr8:
There are a bunch of threads asking about the differences between CWM and TWRP, but I have a question that I think is more specific and I have not seen answered.

Is there any reason besides personal preference for using one over the other?

In most ROM installation guides and such they mention CWM. But I personally like using TWRP better. Does it actually matter? Is there something that I won't be able to do in TWRP that CWM does? So fare, it seems like they do the same thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Zero:
There is nothing different as far as functionality, aside from being able to flash more than one package at a time and the ability to wipe cache and dalvik cache right after flashing a package. (Which I don't recommend doing, it might throw you into a boot loop upon rebooting) only wiping the regular cache is recommended right after flashing packages. Wiping dalvik is usually performed *before* you flash a package.

So, to answer your question... it's pretty much (but not all) cosmetic differences.. plus, the added ease of access features.

But when TWRP is compared to an outdated recovery system such as clock work mod, then yeah it seems like light years of differences. Yes I said it, CWM IS OUTDATED.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
You can say anything you want, but that doesn't make it true. That outdated recovery is the only supported recovery for a lot of ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Illnevertell:
Supported by whom lol twrp flashes everything cwm will to go as far as to say outdated is too far yes but to say twrp won't do it is just ridiculous this is why best threads are dumb
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] natethegr8:
Thanks

This is the heart of my question. Do I need CWM for specific ROM's? And if so, why? You seem to suggest so.

But then here the suggestion is that it is not so.

Also, you state exactly why I didn't word this as a best thread. Because I also think those are dumb. They just get people spouting their personal opinions and using that as proof that one is better than the other.

I don't care which one people feel is better, I simply want to know whether there is anything I can't do with one (mainly TWRP) versus the other.

I would have to accept the responses to this thread as saying no, there isn't anything (important) that I can't do with one versus the other. There may be conveniences in one versus the other (like multiple zip installs at once in TWRP), but no show stoppers.

Thanks for your responses.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Locoman_:
sk8erwitskil's CWM touch is FAR from outdated (last updated 9/17/12). I personally prefer it to TWRP, but TWRP is great too.

You really can't go wrong with either one. Give each a shot and see what you like best.. it's a better route than asking some of the *cough* -opinionated- *cough* people around here.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
This. You can't go wrong with sk8er's CWM Touch or TWRP. The only recovery you should stay away from is non-touch CWM. The older versions of button-mashing CWM have a history of doing bad things to Skyrockets.

If a ROM requires one recovery or another, the dev will specify as much. The dev may also suggest a certain recovery, even if it will work on the other. Lots of people like CWM, and lots of others like TWRP. Changing recoveries is not hard at all, so go ahead and try both. Get a feel for which you like more. Nothing to lose by trying them both out.

Kind of funny to see that there are recovery zombies out there. ROM zombies we all knew about, but recovery zombies? :laugh:

Ppl say its outdated but u can also see this as a more widely tested product too (been around longer... more ppl are using, etc.).
