Phone heating up running CyanogenMod? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm currently running CyanogenMod 7.2 stable. My kernel is Tiamat 3.3.7 with smartass gov. My question, is anyone having any issues with there phone overheating and randomly restarting? It always seems to get really warm on the bottom on the back. I'm guessing near the processor.
I tried reinstalling the rom and switched kernels between Tiamat and SalvagedZen, underclocked down to 806mHz and it still seems to do the same thing.
Does anyone know of any setting changes or adjustments I can make to stop this? This only seems to happen when running this Rom, I never get it when running Sense. I would really like to keep this Rom but the warm phone in hand thing is beginning to become unbearable.

Try using Mason 15rc 4 and change your gov to Wheatly. Play around with it

Are you using sbc? That will make the phone run hotter even when not plugged in. I always used sz kernel since it had option to turn off sbc when not charging

I've always used SBC and never had that problem

To be honest, pretty heavy use. But even when I'm on it for a short time.
It's almost as if my processor clocks to full max every time a turn my screen on.

43 isn't too bad. I don't like phone getting that hot but it does occasionally especially since I have the rezound now and 45-50c is considered average!
What gov were you using? The CPU frequency doesn't impact temps too much. Its mainly the screen pulling juice and heating the battery. Best you can do is keep screen as dim as you can take it and underclocking a bit will help just a tad. I like sbc as well but like I said earlier, savaged Zen has an extra app called sz manager I think its called to disable/enable sbc whenever you want (when not charging ) give it a shot

Yep. 2.21 bfs worked best for me. They aren't developing anymore though and their website is dead. I have the kernel on my pc that I can upload later today if anyone wants/needs it

Q: Evo battery overheating on regular basis

Ok so I'm running cyanogen mod nightlies(September update) coupled with tiamat 4.0.7 + SBC. My battery regularly overheard while charging or when my screen stays on or using certain apps suck as angry birds, music, gameboid, snesoid, etc. Any ideas why it may be doing this and how it could be fixed? I've also run the cyanogen kernel and the regular 4.0.7 tiamat kernel. I've run decks roms, synergy equipped with the freedom kernels, and salvage-mod. Every configuration I use, I have the same problem. My battery hasn't been exposed to the extreme heat of the summer and its always charging in a cool place. I'm using the original HTC charger that came with the phone. Help would definitely be appreciated because its killing my battery. Thanks guys.

Are you overclocked?
Nope underclocked. Running smart-ass settings underclocked to 128 and Max is 768. Still hasn't solved the problem.

You may have a bad battery or a malfunctioning phone.
It does this all the time. Right now spare parts says its at 43.8°C but before i plugged it up i left it off for 20 mins and turned it on and it was at the regular 36°C. I'm hoping its not the phone. And this was a replacement battery I received from the sprint store after my last battery drained within 2 hrs on a daily basis. I've tried calibration and it doesn't help. Battery life is slowly degrading as well.

SBC kernels may overheat your phone.
Try a diffrent no-sbc kernel.

Try returning the phone to complete stock.
If it continues to do it then you're gonna have to take it in.

Well only problem with that is the fact that it did the same thing stock I got my replacement battery before I ever rooted my phone. So ill revert to stock and take it in for them to run a diagnostics test on it. Just gotta find the right location.

Well it sounds like either the replacement battery is bad, the charger is bad [causing the battery to be bad] or the phone itself has a problem.
Could be the charger. Half the time it registers as a USB charger but its the AC outlet charger and when it does switch over to AC it becomes even more prone to overheating. I know that when the battery overheats it can cause internal damage to the phone if it gets hot enough. Hope it hasn't done that yet.

What temperature is considered "overheating"?

I have been overclocking my CPU lately, sitting good right now at 1.2 ghz. I have it undervolted as well to prevent overheating. My question is what temperature do you associate with too hot? 100 F? more?
I dont like letting my phone get over 95 F, but im just curious to know what is considered a safe temperature range.
I cant directly measure my CPU temp, as that feature is not offered on our phone which really sucks, i have to go by the battery.
I have not the slightest clue but I would think you would go by how it feels in your hand and whether or not you can "smell" the cpu burning. I usually dnt clock it above 1.2 unless I'm gaming which is bad but I have it setup by a laptop cooler so it never overheats. Id say anything more than 90 would be pushing it.....

Not true put it like this our phones automatically shut off @ 122*F I go to 115*F when i play GTA 3 @ 1.5Ghz, but i can clock to 104*F just streaming music on WiFi.
So id say personally probably around 110*F+
Yes 105*F is hot but don't run it that high forever though.
But thats the battery, CPU stays fine so id say if your running 100*F+ For more than an hour than it might overheat??? Not completely sure but like i said everyday i play GTA 3 and get up to those temps.

Do you undervolt your cpu or run it on stock cpu voltages? I'm currently running samurai assassination and my phone always crashes if I undervolt it, and usually crashes when I run it at max voltages, but only when I overclock.

I would consider 114 f overheating, that's when I have setcpu underlock to 800 mhz

Used to but because i play GTA 3 now i dont if undervolt that defeats the sole purpose to overclock so i can play without lag, once you undervolt it decreases performance but however gains in battery life.

I had pretty much the opposite problem that your having. I used to use the governor and my phone wouldn't ever go to deep sleep. Ever since then I've been using shadow and haven't had any problems. So maybe the simplest solution would be to switch kernels? Or even simpler, change governors?

Didn't get deep sleep because the cfq I/O is messed up.
Sent From My Toro+ via White Tapatalk
Its not really a problem. I just noticed my battery was lasting way longer when the phone charges while in deep sleep. I use system panel to monitor cpu usage as well as cpu spy. My setup is crispy clean 2.61 rom, I don't shut any syncs off. I just been running it with the normal samurai governor and decided to experiment with diff governors. In a normal day for me my epic would be at 25-30% battery level. With the phone deep sleeping and charging, on a normal day my epic is now at 50-60% battery. If anybody has the time maybe they can try the same setup and let me know if it does the same for them.

Phone Gets Real Hot

Hey guys wondering if anyone else had this issue? Got the Galaxy S3 and its runs pretty hot. Not like the whole phone but like half of it mostly where the home button is but in the back.
Don't know what it is. Wanted to know if anyone else was experiencing this or if its kernel related/ROM related.
I've tried switching ROMs, Kernels, Governors, Schedulers and still nothing. Also undervolting and underclocking. Right now I'm running Casper's AOKP build 9/20 and its running beautifullyt except for this heating issue.
Let's see if anyone else is having the same as me or can offer help.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I'm running stock, rooted, stock kernel. It heats up when I'm gaming or doing something CPU intensive. Never had a problem because of it though. I've seen other threads where this is pretty much considered normal.
I mean I had a GNex before this and it did used to get warm in the back when I used to surf the web or use the phone but once I rooted and changed kernels, undervolted and underclocked, I could do anything and it wouldn't get hot.
Since I'm fairly new to the GS3 I just figured I post it on here just to see if this was how the phone ran typically

that would kinda make sense because when i use the adapter on the micro sd and put that in the computer and put some roms and some videos on it id say maybe 10 min to do all that. and then when i retrieve and go to put in the phone its really hot. so it could have something to do with that
Yeah I'm not sure. I mean its still hot I'm not going to lie bit its not as hot as it used to be. When I had it in there it was like burning hot now its just warm.

I do - I undervolt it to 800mhz using the profiles function in SetCPU and have already undervolted the 800mhz range and below by between -25 and -50.
I know it uses hsdpa, gps etc so it is battery hungry - if you struggle on power look at getting one of those power packs (10000ma)
That would keep ya going all day haha

The phone seems to run comfortably at 800mhz however can take a tad longer when taking hdr pics or doing anything processor heavy. I tend to use the profiles option in setcpu a lot
