Overheating

I am also experiencing overheating issues that I have never experienced before. I am not doing anything any different than I always do.

This is not a gripe, just an observation.

I hope this feedback helps. ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:
Yep. If you look at the battery stats, "Android System", "Android OS", and "Media Server" consume unusual amounts of power.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gopzzz:
wow u r great sotmax

V20 final leaked is really FUNtastic. A very good daily use final Rom indeed. My problems of sd card unmount and phone overheating has been addressed.. I am really very happy with the creation and also the smooth running is ver nice to keep flicking betweeen pages.

one and only issue is a slight flickering of screen in milliseconds may be... other than this I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS STOCK FEEL ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] arbi97:
Agree with your about 100000000000000%. Rom is very very awesome. Sotmax, really thanks for this greatest rom on 4.2.2 ( leak ). Respect:cool:

P.S Guys, who know some interesting system tweaks ( for perfomances, battery life, sd card tweaks, write and read tweaks and etc ( it's need for me ). Who know, plis write. Thanks;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:
Haha now that I look at it, I sound like a total whiner. Thank you sotmax! I really appreciate your hard work. I don't have any wishes to upgrade my phone to s4!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] arbi97:
Sotmax, do you have got this problem ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
I am coming to the conclusion that there is something screwy with this Rom - v20 final.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a paid up member of the Sotmax fan club & have between using his Rom from about v12, but I have never experienced such issues.

First off, I dirty flashed from beta 4 & got bootloop.

I then factory wiped & reflashed & got media process error. Phone also got really hot.

I thought it might be the download so I downloaded again (md5 checked ok)

Clean install again with battery at 100% and I'm getting random freezes that I have to reboot phone. It's still really hot.

Also battery dropped to 40% in about 40 mins, although phone off in my pocket.

Have tried the *#0228# trick. Can't say it's had any impact.

Sotmax, what info do you need from me to find out what's going on?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:
The media service problem was mentioned a few posts up.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
Yeah I know. Not getting that anymore since clean flash from new download.

Just very hot phone & random freezes which is extremely irritating.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:
Yeam overheating seems to be a common problem among many here. But then some people are reporting that they don't experience it. I have no modifications and am doing exactly the same tasks as previous builds but im having problems with the overheating and battery problem. Sotmax, do you need any firther information to fix this issue? Or do we just wait for the official Samsung release?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PearLRoX:

Hi,

i think most of us know when touching sometimes at the android version in the phone menu then we see this jelly bean pic.

Am i the only one who had never the idea pressing at the pic for ca. 2 seconds?

You can try it if you never noticed that too like me :D

Can someone help me?

I dont find Developer Options

Window animation scale

Transition animation scale

Animator duration scale

Where I find this in SOTMAX v20 4.2.2 ROM?

Thank.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanoc69:
settings /about phone/click 7 times in nº compilation ,and now yoi will have developer options
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gazza1988:
Some have media issues and/or overheating issues etc etc.

Could it have something to do with options selected when installing rom?

There doesn't seem to be a pattern so far and I wondered if it was worth a shot for those who experienced issues with overheating put on here which tweaks they did/didn't pick.

Maybe we could find a culprit that way?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
Hmmm...Phone still hot after 10 mins use, still randomly freezing requiring reboot, & using battery like it's going out of fashion.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] corrsea:
Go to settings-battery. If media is showing high use click on it and force stop it.

ROM Sotmax Ultimate V19

Kernel Yank555.lu-V3.4b
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
Android system is using most - 48%

Media using just 2%
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gastonmazzacane:
Did you checked in aroma to keep apps in memory, so the system is doing the exact thing, it s keeping stuff in memory all the time. Sotmax suggested not to install that option because there is no custom kernel to have benefit from that option. It s basicaly that you supecharged your service.jar with V6 supercharger. (Correct me Sotmax if i am wrong) But it s not such a big deal it will be lower after one battery cycle or two. Overall this ROM is great smooth and no FC s, maybe you can make a full wipe and make a clean install. I suggest also to install Crossbreeder it works very well on this ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
I checked the "keep launcher in memory" option.

Will try again without. Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PearLRoX:
:rolleyes: Hmm, i'm curious about that 'keep in memory' option..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:
Oooh. That must be it. I will reflash and report back
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
Curiouser & curiouser. Overheating seems to have stopped & haven't had a freeze. Not convinced about battery life but prob need a bit more time to evaluate.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PearLRoX:
Great! :good:

It will be all ok now i think.. Same here, runs perfect again :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
Without the memory lock every time I close an app my launcher (adw) restarts which is a pain but better than freezing or over-heating!

Thanks everyone!

Rom is fast and battery is good...but I have an horrible RAM management: playing ingress (Google game, send a sms, return to ingress and the game is closed) :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dbenyakar:
HI

I have installed V20 and everything is good except one thing.

I selected in Aroma the option to remove Exchange security.

However when I configured the Exchange server in Email application my sd card was unmounted and now I have a message "Preparing SD Card".

I cannot access it via file explorer. It asks me to encrypt the card and enter a code. I thought this was not suppose to show up once I selected to removed the security in Exchange.

Why is it locking my sd card?

When long clicking on the home button in order to view the running apps I get a System UI crash.

Is this a known issue with the V20 leaked version? Can someone try and verify this please?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cris_ronel:
Sotmax your rom is good but then once I upgrade to it from 4.1.2 im experiencing sds freezing issue does it have the fix? Or can you enclude the xxemc2? Baseband? I know you enclude emc2 on it but its different like its starts from "b"__emc2 something like that can you include xxemc2?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
So as it seems lock on memory option in 4.2.2 is a big crap.

I thought it was and i made the mistake and leave it inside or at least without a caution to aroma.

Must have something to do with new launcher processes.

Will remove it asap and from next versions(if not official) will not be in there ;)

Thank you all for your feedback on that..

[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
Re-flashed last night without the memory lock & also flashed the media roll back.

Overheating seems to have gone, battery seems better, but...

Just had 2 random freezes requiring reboot.

Any logging I can look at?

Edit...

And just had a third one. Any ideas anyone?

Edit 2...

And another freeze. This time while the phone was asleep & on charge. Completely unresponsive & had to reboot.

Getting a bit frustrated.

Should I do a complete wipe and start again? It's just a bit of a pain to re-install everything.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gurgulio:
Can lock in memory be disabled without reinstall with aroma installer?

Hello,

Why?

What I must do when I want (I need it) calendar in my phone?

In accounts options have error in Google and Exchange account. But all synced correctly. But dont see calendar to synchronization.

Thank you.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] romwhacked:
Thnx sotty for your hardwork but there are limitations with the stuff you have got to work with..all this fc,lag ,heat was really annoying so its back to v19 for me,will wait for your magic on the official release of 4.2.2 if there is ever one
[Galaxy S III Android Development] corrsea:
Try updating to yanks latest beta which he had just released. Test it on yank's own settings first. i e just click through Aroma without changing anything. If the problems still exist report them on yank's kernel thread.

Hi guys now I know im always willing to help others on the forum but this time I need your help.

No other problems but this one thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Nick Fury:
No its a an update for 4.1.2
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:
Ah sorry didnt read the guy's post carefully. He said v19...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] donteo:
Soto why you stop releasing 4.1.2 version :confused::confused::confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] BioVolt:
I was lucky and never choose "lock in memory" option, so havent had any of the reported overheating issues or battery drains.

As for the media process FC, I only started having the problem after about 2 days, but since flashing the media rollback, it has as of yet not resurfaced, so all good there.

But I have to agree with the above statement, the ram management is terrible.

I open facebook, and if I click an external link which opens browser, when I close the browser and return to facebook, it literally has to reload facebook.

It feels like there is absolutely no muti-tasking in this current state, dont know if we can really fix it at this time without the kernel sources yet, but if anyone has suggestions, I wouldnt mind hearing about them.

I use System Tuner to disable a load of startup apps...also I use greenify to hibernate some pesky apps that I dont need to be running in background, but it still has no muti-tasking capabilities.

Other than that, it is daily driver worthy, and everything else works good.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xarfrost:
I never encountered overheating, fc and freezes. Thats kinda odd that its only me, and plenty of u guys experience it. I never used any 3rd party launcher and stuff. All I know is:

1. Google Now occasionally makes the phone lag and drain battery (lock screen widget and homescreen)

2. Automatic sync for emails are off, as I dont want wakelocks.

3. Removed S Health and Samsung Apps Services and Could service for it hogs the memory.

4. I am starting to get paranoid about my charging since slow charging came back. I have a new cable and stable power. Not sure if its with the rom or my device or accessory. Im sure I took care of my device well.

Thats about it I can remember. I only lose 2-3ish% overnight for 6 hours.

4k video decode and play

Hi Sotmax,

Is there a way to play 4k resolution video by hardware decode/acceleration?:confused:

I tried the 4k video, it plays with a bit lag but only on mx player with sw decoding. in Hardware decoding only audio plays without video....

so Sotmax is it possible to hardware accelerate the video?

looking forward:highfive:

Gi my friend.

Wait a little as thread grow up and here is early morning. Check my local time to see if i m able to answer please(GMT +3).

You have to install samsung calendar and s planner for this to work correctly...if you didnt choose that in aroma you will not have it.

) ) ) over the air on GN2 ( ( (
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gopzzz:
its simple

if u have installed Splanner in aroma then ur calender is that and it syncs with all google accounts.

thats the reason u didn't get any reply I think so....

try installing SPlanner
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
I thought that was a full stable version but unfortunatelly is not.

I will release v21 soon and will try to seriously keep in mind all feedback to solve all problems.

try once *#0228# quick start reboot and full charge. Seems that system messes battery stats for sure.

Already accelerated my friend...but stock kernel is a serious limit....

[Galaxy S III Android Development] gopzzz:
Then lets wait for a custom kernel for 4.2.2 to have the full potential...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Musko:
Thank you very very much my friends.

Copy Samsung Calendar and SPlanner from zip to system apps, setting permisions, wipe dalvik.

Now working excellent.

Sotmax you are the BEST
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vasilisf7:
About the charging issue (4) I also have the same problem sotmax gave me a solution*#0228# but I am stil testing it.some times the % on the battery goes crazy showing difrent numbers..and also very slow charging so I report so far the charging was beter for the first sikle but tomorrow I will have more answers to this issue. ..

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Nick Fury:
I think all the problems are purely down to the fact that it is still a leaked version.

I would honestly advice to all users that if your finding these bugs a big problem to just install v19 instead. As once official 4.2.2 comes out then the major bugs will be gone.

Im not finding any major problems but I may be going to v19 myself for the custom kernel lol. I miss the great battery life haha.

Sotmax has put alot of time and effort in and can only do so much with the rom and its bugs. The battery overheating problem is due to being only stock kernel.

So cant be fixed by sotmax no matter what really.

Just be patient and wait for official 4.2.2.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] donteo:
So to expect V21 a new 4.1.2 version ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] green750one:
Is there any special measures needed to revert to v19? Or just wipe & clean install?

Fyi...still getting random freezes & now occasional reboot on v20. Hoping overheating hasn't damaged h/w!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigma1981:
That's a REALLY optimistic statement!!!

Fixed! ;) ;) ;)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
No more 4.1.2 my friend. Last one was v19nand will stay as it is. Is good

enough for stick to that and no special development to that anymore.

V21 will be a fixed leajed one.

Spoke too soon to say that v20 was final leaked.

Hardly you will have a hw problem my friend.

System itself protect you device and if will hang it will reboot after all.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Nick Fury:
Maybe you should still keep leaked as v20 and start official 4.2.2 as v21 [MENTION=2391029]sotmax[/MENTION]. Just an idea
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PearLRoX:
+1

Indeed.. Just make a fix or something 'v20-fix'

No need to make a other 'version' update for this buddy ;)
