Phone get HOT

Hi All

Hope someone can help me point me in the right direction to solve the problem I now face with this ROM.

For ref when i mention hot i refer to temp's OVER 40 degrease Celsius!

Problem:

I DID a clean install of pa_n7000-3.60-11JUN2013-053741.zip and did install apps as normal(did not do any titanium restors)

After this my phone gets really hot from just surfing the web or just playing music( with three different music appz) with the screen off.

And i can not play carmagendon properly anymore, for just after a minute of playing the phone get sooo hot that the frame rate drops to 3-5 fps like a safegard triggers in the gpu or something. Battery temp monitor reports 52 Celsius after i try to play for a min or two.. NOT GOOD!

What i have done to try to fix it:

I have tried 3 different kernels but still same result

I have updated to pa_n7000-3.60-20JUN2013-073954.zip same result

I have monitored the CPU frequency and under normal web browsing it does not go over 800Mhz ish, maybe onec or twicer over but not "100%" load of 1400Mhz ANY time to warrent the "heat" produced.

I have alos used CPUZ to monitor and i can see that EVEN the second core is even turned off when i play music and monitoring but STILL the phone gets HOT.

So here is what I wonder, is this down to the GPU??

Can anyone suggest a good GPU monitor app..

TNX for reading, and hope someone can help as I LOVE this ROM !

1. I feel that the camera quality is not as good as compared to the stock app

2. Something is wrong with the focus. It just goes out of focus

So my question is will the stock camera apk working with this ROM?

Or is there a modded version perhaps that might work?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AA1973:
No, stock camera won't work with this or any other AOSP-based ROMs.

I don't think there is a modded version which will work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Thot Ctrl:
Thats too bad :c don't you have that probably with focus?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tysonraylee:
well this is pretty good for me but does have a few things to it

1) Skype doesn't work for me at all. it used to in previous versions but now on 3.60 it doesn't work for me at all. I can make a call though but it wouldn't last more than 2 min and the other side can't hear my voice after that and if I keep the phone in call after that, the phone hangs up and freezes and I have to reboot it.

2) sometimes while typing my keyboard goes all laggy and just hangs the phone. though it happens rarely

3) phone lags heavily sometimes making it hard to swipe through home screens

4) too much multitasking heats up the phone

5) and lastly a very interesting thing happened yesterday

I normally don't use my camera very much but yesterday need to take a PIC and when I turned on the camera it said" insert SD card to continue to use camera" and wouldn't let me take the PIC

I had to reboot to make camera work again

I think that's about it. if someone has similar issues even a single one and you have a way to solve it do let me know.

And yes I am not complaining, the ROM is super awesome for me. just thought I should let developers know and they could fix it up.

Thank you beerbong for all your hard work :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Thot Ctrl:
Just had to ask.. did you do a clean install?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tysonraylee:
I think I did data factory reset when I flashed 3.15 as I haven't done it since like 1.99 version but after that I haven't done it.

And also the OP instructions too doesn't requires to do so if you are coming from a PA Rom.

So i always flash new version-> flash gapps-> clear cache and dalvik cache.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] archimess:
Just do a clean install. Factory reset - Wipe Cache - Wipe Dalvik cache - Format Data + System + Cache.

There are some things piled up and that's why you're having problems. Skype works flawlesly on my phone 24/7.

And the camera "problem" - set your storage to internal.

And for the freezing - put N|X kernel if you don't have it already and do some tweaking with governors.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tysonraylee:
since the new version is out i think i will do it with that

camera is working fine now that was just once i had that problem

never heard of NX kernel, i will go do the searching

Thanks for the advice

btw what does "format data" do??

format all my data on sdcard and external sdcard??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Galaxtus:
Format data means it resets your user data related to rom. Like apps, contacts, messages etc which are stored in your rom data folder. It has nothing to do with sdcard. Make sure you have backup of your important stuff before formatting it. ;)

Also NX kernel can be found in development section :)

Hello everyone.

I am enjoying this Rom very much.

So i have the latest 3.65 (upgraded from 3.60 today). and for some reason, I cant use my Wifi Tether (even with 3.60). The hotspot activate, my laptop does connect to the phone but I just cant get through the Internet (Limited connectivity).

I confirm that it is not my provider (been tethering since i had my phone on stock and also another version of Paranoid)

I am using Rogers in Canada and I confirm my APN are correct.

When i installed 3.60, 2 weeks ago, i did a full wipe, clear cache (also dalvik).

Is there something i need to do?

Am i the only one having this issue?

Having read the forum, it seems Wifi Tether should be working with recent updates of this rom.

Many thanks everyone.

Guys, i have a issue with the "download" app.. The system app that allow the downloads...i can only download over wifi, when i try to download something (play store apps, images from internet) over hdspa stay in download forever, it doesn't start the download itself...That annoying thing was happening on 3.60 with 2130702 gapps, so i updated to 3.65 with gapps 2130702 but nothing changed. I think that the download app is built-in with the rom, so i have to wipe all and reinstall? :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Galaxtus:
Maybe its related your network. Try full wipe and see. :rolleyes:

In play store settings > did you tick the "update via WiFi only" option or similar?

Hi and thank you for you reply.

I have tried your Kernel and it didnt fix the issue.

Unfortunately the problem seems to be at the rom level. I have tried my sim card in my wife's Galaxy Nexus S stock and tethering was fine..

I have restored an old backup of "[ROM] PARANOIDANDROID 2.51" and like before, i was able to tether once again.

If anyone have a suggestion for me, please do write it. This is a great rom and i would be sad to let it go! :(

If someone ask, i did do a clean install (clear all caches, full wipe, manual format of system, data, cache)

need help updating

hi guys awesome rom,

1- I was wondering about how to update from 3.6 to 3.65 & google app update ?

2- do i lose apps,galary,firewall settings , i already have after the update ?

thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Buzzmovies:
I would like to come with a solution to my problem who should be taken seriously by the development team in my opinion.

I was able to fix my problem by reading this thread:

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=38563

Basicaly it says that some ROM based on 4.1.2 and up can cause problems with some network operator. In my Case, Rogers in Canada.

Has to do with the Ip tables. They suggest you should do a NETCFG via the Terminal app and apply the following fix:

iptables -tnat -I natctrl_nat_POSTROUTING 1 -s 192.168.0.0/16 -o rmnet0 -j MASQUERADE

[rmnet0] is an interface and can vary from users, devices or provider.

Some very knowlegable people developped some apps to help user like me (who are way over their head with all that).

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tetherunlocker

or

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jaconet.fixtether&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5qYWNvbmV0LmZpeHRldGhlciJd"]https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jaconet.fixtether&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5qYWNvbmV0LmZpeHRldGhlciJd

In my case, JB Wifi Tether has solved my problem. It does activate properly the native tethering and now i am happy again!!!

I am not new to this forum but i have so little post here, I dont think I can post that on the development thread.

If any of you,, more knowledgeable folk think this is relevant, please copy it, to the development thread or make sure they fix the rom with it.

Many thanks:victory:

hi there

it's been a long time since I used normal phone mode (been using tablet mode since I got the Gnote) and since i wanted to try halo i switched to phone ui and now everything is so big :)

anyways I was able to adjust everything to my preference but I am not able to get the lock screen as it was in tablet ui.

Anybody could let me know how to set the DPI for lock screen??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AA1973:
Hybrid properties / tools / expert mode √

Hybrid properties / interface / lock screen / change dpi

Halo works for me in tablet ui on 3.65 version :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tysonraylee:
thanks for the expert mode tip

didn't know that

btw I switched back to tablet ui and as you said halo works there too.

Feeling much better now with good old tablet ui ;)

+1 to you my friend :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tysonraylee:
Hi again

I have now flashed 3.65 and everything seems to fine though I have a few things to report.

1) navbar size cannot be changed in hybrid properties. I flashed this ROM two times yesterday, making a clean install every time but it didn't work

2) I think the hybrid properties or the Para preferences are not functioning properly as for the reason mentioned above and also as I changed the ui to tablet mode before restoring my backup but most of the ui remained in phone mode thus I did that after restoring my backup too but I didn't had any effect on either the user apps dpi or the system apps dpi and also the lock screen remained in phone ui and so did most of the ui.

Previously when I used to switch between ui's or modes the DPI used to change accordingly without me needing to changed anything but that doesn't happen now. Thanks to AA for the "expert mode" tip allowing me to change most of my ui as I desired.

3) As for the same reason mentioned above in both 1&2 the navbar doesn't change transparency properly for apex launcher. I changed it in hybrid properties to be transparent but it only keeps it transparent on home screen but doesn't do it in the app drawer.

4)I wanted to flash the NX kernel but after reading the last pages I think it's not doing good for ROMs with the latest 1.4.1 update. so I decided not to flash it instead thought that I will flash the latest CM 10.1 kernel.

Is latest CM10.1 kernel included in PA 3.65??

Thank you very much for all your hard work beerbong and everybody else.

Peace :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] beerbong:
1, 2 and 3 works for me
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Galaxtus:
1. Settings>Hybrid Properties>Interface>Nav bar slider. Adjust it to your needs. ;)

2. Cached Apps do not change immediately. So Reboot or restart the app by force closing it. :victory:

3. That wont happen or i don't understand. App drawer do not act the same as Home screen. :eek:

4. You can try it. Dont make other mess around with you :D

Even 4 Works too :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tysonraylee:
1) I know the nav bar slider and I did adjust that. the thing is whenever I adjust the slider and click apply and then open the para pref again it comes back to 100%. tried it several times now doesn't work, stays at 100% all the time.

2) as I mentioned I did that both before and after restoring my backup and also rebooted but that didn't had any effect. had to change it manually.

3) never had the issue in 3.60 or before

4)will try it :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Galaxtus:
You are running Tablet Mode :eek: So don't waste time sliding it because it will not move or work :D

Next time be specific about what mode you are running. So non of your question work here. Try Phatablet or Phone mode and see.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AA1973:
Navbar can't be reduced to 0% in tablet UI

Use expanded desktop/PIE instead
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tysonraylee:
1) OK my bad the nav bar slider doesn't work in tablet ui and now I remember you had to switch to some other mode and set the nav bar as desired and then switch back to tablet ui settings from interface itself. That is now solved, btw I was trying to make nav bar 90% not 0% and yes I did mention that I was using tablet ui but well no worries :)

2) the app drawer still doesn't seem to take effect of the transparency of nav bar. maybe it never did, I just don't remember now. oh well doesn't really matter

3) I think I have forgotten how para prefs works since I hadn't played with it for a long time and anyways using the expert mode seems to give me all I want

Thank you everybody for your help

beerbong sorry to have doubted your work, never meant to do so

Galaxtus and AA thanks for help for making me rethink what should be done

you guys great

Everything solved, Alls well now

peace :)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] swiss420:
If you are a noob and you seem to experience unusual behaviour or you are missing obvious functions this might be worth considering:

A while back I had a couple of Question regarding the Camera and saving to the SDCard instead of Internal Memory. Also my Alarm Clock crashed when trying to start it. This in turn ended up filing my internal storage with log files which lead to a very unusable phone. I got most of the stuff fixed manualy and learned allot in the process. Unfortunately again the most important lesson came last.

I already learned from the Alarm Clock incident that wiping the Data can sometimes easely solve allot of issues. Well with that in mind I figured it is time to start over from scratch. Wipe Data/factory reset and Partition internal SDCard. Remember just wiping the Dalvik Cache, Cache Partition and Flashing a new Rom does not wipe the data on the internal SDCard. Don't forget to Backup what you want to keep first.

Let me tell you, what a Revelation. Options appeared I havent seen in a Long time and the ROM runs great. The accumulation of updating ROM's, Trying out Apps, and generally messing with it made it a cesspool of stale stuff on the Internal SDCard. Updating the ROM like this was allways nice because it would take over all the Settings from before. Unfortunately bad ones as well as I had to realize. The Camera has now all the stuff I missed so dearly and the HDR Mode is now there too. It does not even Crash anymore. Thats very helpfull for taking Pictures. lol

If you are a noob and you are here, chances are you are looking for help. So take a page out of my book and if you havent done so in a Long time consider Wipe Data/factory reset and Partition internal SDCard. Backup your Data beforehand, that should go without saying. If the Problem still exists after that you can still return here and post your Problem.

If you want to get a exact copy of the Internal SDCard I found GoodSync Server for Android with GoodSync Connect a great Little tool to do just that. Even if the System runs unstable you can sync it and get it off the Phone. Afterwards you can easely restore individual files if you care to do so.

PS: Reading backwards I can see this has just been discussed. Oh well atleast I can confirm sometimes it is just needed to go the extra mile.

Hey guys, i've been having a problem with my network each time i install PA instead of using the touchwiz

someone with the exact same problem with me already asked, but no one seemed to know the solution at that time

Wiping SD cards seems to me as a overkill measure. I am running non-TW since more than over a year I would say, flashing daily, never wiped SD cards and never encountered such a problem. Of course, not all ROM flashes were clean installs, mainly quick &dirty, no wipes!

All AOSP based ROMs, such as CM or AOSPA, never include a radio/baseband. It will always be the modem of your last Touchwiz ROM, unless you flash one separately. The thread is in development section "all radios at one place" ...

Go to settings -> developer options -> show CPU usage

have a look at what is using so much of your CPU at the top right of the screen. If it's "media storage" or similar, then your media scanner is currently indexing all your pictures, music and videos and will go away once it has finished, freeing up your device again. This has NOTHING to do with your kernel; even with NX kernel, you'll still be using 80% of your CPU.

This will happen every time you turn your device on from cold boot (inc. rebooting, flashing update etc.) and even happens with Nexus devices!

There is nothing wrong with the kernel that comes with AOSPA once the ROM has settled down!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mindfck1337:
actually it came down and was smooth again but as i flashed NX kernel it became smoother :D and you are right, the media scanner does take up some huge amount of CPU when recently booted :)
