[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] technique00:
so my phone pretty much shat the bed since i last posted. NOt having done anything else other than two clean re-installs of RLS17 and 17.1, the phone app would not load, and keyboard froze on attempt to enter any password. ultimately the phone would not even turn on, only vibrating and showing the 'samsung custom' display with the padlock and then turning back off. I tried flashing via ODIN the above linked SCH-I545_MDK_562219_Stock_Restore.tar.md5, ODIN showed a 'PASS', but still when attempting to turn the phone one i only get the samsung custom and it turns off again. Should I be using the PDA button to flash the restore? If so, should i have boxes checked other than auto re-boot? if not, what should i be using: Bootloader, PHone, or CSC? thanks again.

There is some time that I was thinking about my camera has a poor qualiy. It was amazing in the past and it isn`t any more. But I thought that is all on my mind. Last weekend I compaired with a Friend`s XPERIA SP phone and I got surprised. My camera is realy poor, there is some problem. But I don`t know if it is HW or SW.

Have you find some answer?

Thanks

The best camera apps that have better quality images are;

1)VSCO

2)Google's Camera (Yeah it is surprisingly good)

I don't prefer the HD Camera you find the in play store.

I usually clean my lenses by putting a small amount toothpaste to the lens and wiping it. After that, I clear the lens with a wet tissue. You could use some soap too but I prefer using toothpaste because it made my lenses to be much cleaner

So, I just got the G3 (jumped from the g2) and was wondering if there is any way to add (or customize) the apps available on the dual-window screen?

The reason I ask is I had rooted my g2 and someone was able to port a version of the dual window app over to it (from the original phone it was launched on, the g-flex). I have looked but have not been able to find anything for the g3 yet? This would be awesome as I really think this is the only major flaw I have found in my g3, at least for me anyway?
[T-Mobile LG G3] hawkstwelve:
I don't know if there is another way, but I used this apk and it allowed me to add all my apps to dual window. I know it says its for lg flex but it worked on the G3 as well. Of course, make a backup before hand just to be safe.

Hi,

TT6 runs ok to start off with and then gets to the point where it appears to freeze up but is infact still running and can take 10 min's or longer to respond to a screen tap. Other programs (i.e. phone) can be accessed and run almost as fast as normal.

I have defragmented the SD card, but the problem remains.

Any other suggestions?

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warlynx:
Well, I guess it's pretty normal if a phone gets hot while playing hardcore games.

But is it supposed to get this hot while playing games? Sometimes, just by playing Plants Vs. Zombies 2, the phone gets really hot (hotter on the camera part of the phone) that makes it unplayable due to the hotness that makes the camera part untouchable (or I'll get hurt)

I'm asking if this is normal, and if it happens to you guys.

I'm new here btw, so go easy on me :p

Love ya
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
Not to be rude but does it really get that hot that you feel like you'll get hurt? I've played games before and the phone has gotten warm like all other phones I've ever owned but hot enough to "hurt me" I haven't noticed.

What I can say is that it's possible that the software (either CM11s ROM or the game you're playing) isn't fully optimized to run on the OPO so it may have the processor working extra hard when it shouldn't have to.

Remember we're basically beta testing this lovely gem so a lot of bugs and such are to be expected since the phone isn't officially open to the public.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warlynx:
Well, first of all, it does not happen with just Plants Vs Zombies 2, I gave that game as an example because I usually play more-demanding games (not saying that pvz2 is not a demanding game, actually, i have no idea)

And answering your question, yes, it does get hot enough to hurt me, since the camera part is where it really gets hot, and there is a metal/plastic (yes i can't distinguish, i suck) piece on the camera that when it gets hot, is really untouchable, reaching the point where it hurts by touching it.

Oh, thanks for your reply :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I don't have it but then again I can't really talk since I'm not on stock ROM/Kernel. I'm using a custom rom/kernel which uses different algorithms to thermal throttling which keeps the phone nice and cold or not as warm.

Depends on where you are too, if you're playing it outside and its really warm (it is Summer) then yeah.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warlynx:
Uhm, yes, it's truth that i'm using stock ROM, but i can assure that the current weather on my place has nothing to do with it getting really hot or not.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smorebuds:
Yeah, my OPO gets this hot as well when I'm playing XCOM--the only "demanding" game I have on it at the moment. When I play other games, or during other normal usage it stays relatively cool. It gets a bit warm when charging, but that's expected from this charger.

I only just got it yesterday morning, so have only had limited testing time, but I'm getting the same thing with the front and back of the phone getting very hot, and the metal piece on the camera getting painfully hot (I have to watch how I hold it so I don't accidently touch it). I wasplaying XCOM for about an hour (the length of my train ride home) and it was hot pretty much from the start. After that hour the game finally crashed... I started it back up and within 5 min it crashed again. Guess that means it's getting throttled?

I'll be testing it again on my ride home later.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
What do you expect? This device, like any computing device, when put under CPU load is going to generate heat, it's computing 101 guys. This is why PC's have cooling fans.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warlynx:
Yeah, but when we decide to buy a high-end phone, with a really good GPU and CPU, we expect some kind of use to it. Since, in my opinion, having a good GPU, means that we can play high demanding games, and watch some cool high quality movies. I personally want this phone mainly to play those kind of games, that was actually the purpose of buying this phone: knowing that i can play any kind of game i throw at it.

So yeah, I agree that like any computing device, it's normal to get hot. But is it supposed to get so hot, even hurting the holder just because he's playing Plants Vs Zombies 2 for 10 minutes? This issue kinda beats the purpose of having a great GPU. It has a great GPU yeah, but what's the purpose of having it if it overheats the phone?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
You bring up a lot of good points. Its just the way the phone's thermal driver operates. Alternatively, you can switch to a kernel that operates their thermal driver differently.

What is a thermal driver?

Basically its responsible for keeping your device nice and cool. Third party kernels such as: Franco, AK kernel, furnace and various custom ROM kernels have a modified thermal driver which can help with your phone overheating. For instance, using Franco Kernel he has his own thermal driver and also removes Qualcomm's mpdecision with his own hotplugging algorithm (powering cores 3/4 on or off depending on the load). You can also downclock your phone using these kernels (as well on stock) to lower the performance of your phone so that it does not heat up but also meet a balance of your phone not lagging with the lower clock.

Other thermal drivers include: Faux's Intellithermal and so forth.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Fair enough, but your high end CPU and GPU are performing as they should be, and because there is no physical cooling system on your phone it's going to get hot. Just because it's a high end device it doesn't mean it shouldn't get hot. The fact that it has such high spec components actually suggests that it'd heat up more than your average phone. By your logic, a high end gaming PC shouldn't heat up, but we know that isn't the case.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Adding to your point... a high end gaming laptop ;) ... yeah a highend gaming PC heats up but its not as obvious, at least not for some people unless they're on air cooling and can hear the fans. A highend gaming laptop or any multimedia laptop playing games would heat up whatever surface its laying on as well as blowing out hot air.

My point still stands as stated before if OP doesn't want his phone to get "super" hot during games, flash a custom kernel, buy FKU and set up a per-app-mode, I can play PvZ 2 and can downclock it down to 1.5-1.7 (or even lower) without any lag. Just play around with it to get to that sweet spot where you find a balance between performance and battery as well as having your phone not heat up as much as stock.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warlynx:
Thanks for your reply and for presenting me some solutions, but I forgot to mention that I flashed Paranoid Android already, and from my knowledge, I think I read that it has Franco's Kernel already, so there's no need to flash it, i suppose (correct me if wrong)?

And even flashing that custom ROM, the problem still persists. So, I guess the only solution is to downclock the phone while playing those games.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I'm not too familiar with that, I know Franco is on PA's team but their kernel probably isn't 100% Franco Kernel. I could be wrong on this, I am not fully familiar with the situation but you might as well just flash Franco Kernel over it just so you're safe. If you have his FKU app then you can set Per-App-Mode as I mentioned previously.

Custom ROM isn't going to help your phone be "cooler" in temperature. Its on the kernel side of things. You'll need to downclock the phone accordingly on CPU frequency and GPU frequency. I was able to play 1.2-1.7GHz with 330 MHz on GPU. Don't take what I post for granted though, you'll need to sit down and try it out yourself to get the balance between temperature and performance.

At the end of the day, you'll also squeeze out more battery life playing the game too so thats always nice. Lowered temperatures and additional battery life? :victory:
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gothicx:
Yes, mine gets too damn hot as well, to the point of burning my fingers, and I was not gaming, just browsing the internet while charging...

Also, on my side pocket, I could feel it's heat on my leg while driving...
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
It's probably not a great idea to leave your phone on charge all night. You can't overcharge it, but the more time the battery spends at the peak voltage (4.2v) the faster it will degrade. Just a tip.

Have to check ao much time it will take to reach 100% and then switch it off via timer or such, but I never had this problem with other phones.
