LED flicking - HTC One X

I was charging my HOX and when I played some game, LED diod was flickering.. So is possible that performance is higher than battery charger? IT would mean that one X will be unable to use for games.
Does your led flickering if you charger battery from 0%?

Game play can cause you to use a lot more power than the charger can handle... It helps that you leave the phone alone to charge it.

My led flickers from red to green rapidly when I'm playing riptide even though there is plenty of battery left, I've not searched the forums for an answer coz it doesn't bother me, I just put it down to possibly being coz the phone gets really hot so maybe it does that when it overheats?

LED flickers two times related to battery condition.
1. It flickers when the battery temperature is high( above 50 Deg C i think)
2. It flickers when the battery is very low. (Below 5% i think)
Its already discussed a lot in mega thread and other threads that using the phone while charging makes the devcie to heat up fast. Its happening for me even after the latest update.

It is indeed displaying that because its getting toasty.
leave it for a bit unplugged and not playing games and it will be ok

So dont play games.. Dont use it?. Wtf?! This is the solution?

Play games or do graphic intensive tasks after disconnecting devcie from charging, atleast for now till HTC do something in future updates. Or sit in a room heavily airconditioned if you are in hot country like iam

Although I haven't tested it, I think charging may resume even with a warm battery (under 60c) when the battery voltage drops to 3.8V. I had a read through the logcat when my battery was about 53c, and the messages seemed to indicate this.
Code:
I/BATT_ALG( 136): batt_alg_overtemp_check: 450 < temperature(527) <= 600, set slow charging, 4.0V charging stop, 3.8V recharge.
I/BATT_ALG( 136): batt_alg_overtemp_check: 420 < temperature(439) < 450, set slow charging, 4.2 charge full, 4.15 recharge.
I/BATT_ALG( 136): batt_alg_overtemp_check: temperature(412) < 420, set normal charging.

yes don't play quad/gpu heavy games on the charger, simple
battery overheard bad when its low plus WiFi

My One X Runs hot, very hot..

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed it so far.. when charging the phone, and you do intensive WIFI/3G downloads (like updating apps from Play for example), the back of the phone at the camera area becomes really hot after awhile, and the LED indicator, which normally shows a always-on Orange light, will start to blink orange-green-orange-green...
After a day of experimenting, i think that the orange-green blinking is an indicator to tell us that the phone is running too hot, and needs to cool down before charging can continue..
anyone has similar experience?

I have beed using one x for last 2 days, charged it twice fully but it does not get too hot, a lill hot while charging but no bliking led as you said
*#*#4636#*#* > choose Battery Information
The temperature and status will be listed there. I'm guessing that it stops charging at 50c

it doesn't get that hot if you're not using the phone while charging, but try charging AND using the wifi/3G at the same time. within 10 minutes, my phone got pretty hot at the camera area.
I had a flashing led last night too

do you mean while charging or with normal use itself ?
All smartphones have this problem including SGS2 and Iphone 4s.
If you use max brightness + games for more than 10 mins it will get very warm no matter what's the brand or model you use.
The only treatement is to decrease brightness or downclock the CPU with SetCPU (temp profiles)

install battery indicator and check the how miuch the battery is heated, I have checked it quite a few times and it should within 30-32 C which is normal
dont find it getting heated with normal use, I am keeping the player on for many hours and calls etc, only when I charge it gets a bit warm but again not hot I would say

Not excactly but it became also hot for all when I charge
Orange green indicator will happen when you are charging the phone (orange) and when you have a notification (missed call, msg, downloaded app). Heating up happens naturally when you do work on your phone while charging. It will happen even if you do nothing while charging.
A Dutch website called Tweakers.net tested the temperature in comparison to other phones, and found it got hotter than other phones when used intensively. See attachment image to see what I mean.
What is says: "toestel" = device. "frontpage" means they let the browser display the frontpage of their website. Shadowgun is an intense 3D game from the market. "Shadowgun + lader" means playing Shadowgun while connected to the charger.
I only experience the high temperature when playing games on my phone for 5 mins onwards. Charging is fine. I think mine is working pretty fine considering I resides in Singapore where everyday is summer.

I forgot to mention they also say that this heat is felt through the entire body of the phone, as where on other handsets the heat is concentrated in one place.
It's perfectly normal dude!
It's the screen that gets hot and because the One X has a 4.7'' screen it's all over the phone

i never leave the screen over half the brightness so hope its just this
i'm starting to be concerned honestly, Desire/Nexus 1 are operating at their maximum thermal capacity and it used to get hot too, Desire HD has snapdaragon2 with very relaxed thermals and to be honest i don't like to have a hot rod in my hands, the DHD always feels pleasantly cold
the thermal image posted by DomCowell seems fine and normal when compared with other phones....i dont know

Best external batteries?

Suggestions:

www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/B0...tBy=bySubmissionDateDescending#R16K6O8IYLZZP6
Supposedly the best external battery available.
Does this batteries take energy first form mobile phone and then regarge with this attached power source or it just immediately use power from external source? I am asking because I think that the first case would decrease battery cycles of mobile phone so in the end it willdoesnt matter if I have external battery.. I want to spare my built-in battery..
On the other side.. what are you doing when you play games? The mobile phone drains too fast.. is it better to be always on electricity to regarge battery? Somewhere I read that when mobile is fully charged it goes down to 90 % and then to 100% again.. so mobile is still charging and batterz cycles are going down..
Thanks for reply

Playing a game on HTC One

Hi guys, I want to buy the HTC One and I am a big gaming fan. My question is, how much batterylife takes it to play for example Shadowgun for one hour on this device?
Thanks for any answer.
For me it takes about 3 hours and the battery is depleted ( playing a movie+reddit browsing).
:/
Though I'm on the pre-battery fix update (1.26.771.2)
I would say that one hour of ShadowGun takes between 20 and 30% of battery. I'm on 1.29 that has improved battery life, specially while the phone is on stand by.
Yesterday 25-30mins of shadowgun (where cpu is not faster than 1GHz) took 25% of battery. Wifi was on, screen brightness around 40%, GSM signal weak. So it seems that max is around 2,5h with no wifi/data and good reception.
Put it in airplane mode whilst gaming

Yep, heavy 3d games kill the battery, but the trade off is that games look AMAZING on this phone.

Not true. Playing shadowgun or dark meadow uses more battery than the charger can provide. You should get a couple hours or so though

a COUPLE of HOURS? damn, I really must have got a faulty device... 10 mins of dark meadow and boom 20% of battery is gone on my phone. Not joking, I even made a thread about it and I can get just barely around 3 hours of screen time from a full charge, and this is with juicedefender ultimate on. HTC One X has a great battery on stand by but if you actually USE the phone and by that I mean just put the screen on its worse than horrible
Couple hours is when plugged into charger. Without is less but I havent tested it.

At this moment I have the SGS2 and the game uses 25% per hour playing Shadowgun (no joke). The phone does not get warm at all.
Modern Combat 3 takes about 50 to 60% of my battery per hour. And it heats up. Why does the One X uses so much battery on Shadowgun? Anyone?

Shadowdun is enhanced for Tegra 3 devices, so extra effects and and overall better looking game, all 4 cores are being used vs the dual core GS2.

NO YOU CAN'T
if you use 5V charger your phone overheats after 10-15 minutes.
if you use 3V charger (usb output from notebook) your phone will use more power than charger can supply and will discharge - however much more slowly comparing to just being on battery.
OS - 1.28 .

HOX Overheating after 5 mins of use ?

Hello XDA ! I have an HTC One X. I have been using it and now I started to track my Battery temperatures. I am running ARHD 7.1.0 Custom Rom and my battery temps in my house in IDLE are about 26-30 Degrees. When I start using it inside afer about 5-10 mins of playing Dead Trigger or Real Racing 2 the temps are about 45-47 and after 30-40 mins they are about 50 degrees and I dont think this is normal for a battery. The phone becomes untouchabe at the top. Today I was just browsing the web outside (where its really hot - about 38-40 degrees) and after 5 mins the battery was 56 degrees JUST FROM BROWSING ! I wanted to ask if this is normal with every HOX and is there any fix. Sorry for my bad english
HTC says it's normal for your phone to reach such temperatures -_-. But the 2.05 base leak has temperature fixes. My hox doesn't get that hot as often as it used to after I installed Arhd 7.1.0
And yes my phone also got that hot just by browsing internet.
Sent from my HTC One X
So if I continue using the phone after the battery is over 45 degrees I won't damage it ? I always stop doing everything if the temp goes over 45. And what are your temperatures ?
Yeah nothing should happen. Mine is around 40C
Sent from my HTC One X
Mine also gets quite hot. Next time it does I will take a reading and post back.
@Op,
Use it not abuse it.
Why don't you tell your experience to the developer of the custom rom rather then opening a new thread?
Like this you won't get an answer, a waist of space.
@laurentius26
I didn't think he was talking about the ROM, its a HOX problem.
Lot of people are facing it and 2.05 base seems to have fixed it for most of them. Mine still heats up while browsing once in a while but its much MUCH lesser than before.
@OP
Try another rom if you think ARHD is the problem. Imo the rom isn't the problem.

Lucky you are to not have had your hox heat up. Mines reached points where I couldn't charge it while browsing on edge because the battery was overheated. The new base however my phone barely heats up. But then my usage has changed compared to when I was on 1.29

My Hox (old one... Currently at repair center) gets 47c outside in the top of screen and camera (yes I use a laser temperature meter), battery at 53, and CPU at 94c... After 15/20 minutes of playing tegra games, or just stressing CPU for 10 min using stability test.

its not cpu temp for sure its bat temp for cpu temp use sytem tools and go cpu

pic.2 look cpu temp.
I almost burn mine out the other day... It even turned itself off... (I fell asleep whilst playing Max Payne with the phone on charge). I would say it got to about 70oC! THANK GOD FOR AUTO SWITCH OFF ON TEGRA 3
@Darkony, yep you're right indeed.
The CPU temperature goes up and down from 40 till 70 degrees on my device depending
on uses (it reaches 70 degrees but cools down very quickly as well).
The battery temperature reaches 47 degrees, (4 runs with StabilityTest app).
after two months of owning the HOX and now running the leaked the 2.05
it never overheats or blinks or whatever
it does get a little hot during non stop heavy gaming but thats it
i can even play on the charger
My big concern is the 47c in the top of screen :/ really hot you cant touch or answer a call

Helllo,
I got the T-Mobile HTC Mr yesterday and I've noticed the aluminum on the back gets very warm. I downloaded cpu z on the phone and while charging, the temperature is about 45/46*C.
Is t here any cause to be concerned?

Sounds fairly normal to me. Mine gets warm when charging as well. If it bothers you and you don't need it to charge as quick, I find that using a 1 amp charger instead of the 1.5 it comes with doesn't heat it up nearly as much. I figured that out because I use my old m7 charger to charge it at my desk and the one it came with to charge it by my bed
Its normal
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using xda app-developers app
113F is a bit high. Mine rarely hits that high even with its 1.5A charger while my M7 regularly hit that high with its 1A charger. I'd consider exchanging it as we know from history that the camera sensor doesn't like heat.
It is usual things. you can turned off your wifi or data connenction when it unused.
