Evo from hell????

It always seems like there's something wrong with my evo. This morning I went to pick up my evo after it was plugged in all night (like i do every night) and it was burning hot. I looked at it and it said it was 133 degrees so i unplugged it and turned it off immediately, after it cooled down I turned it back on and it was at 70% battery after it was charging all night, so it wasn't charging at all last night even though the light was on and it was showing a green full charge when I woke up. after I turned it on it was on for about 2 minutes then automatically rebooted and then was on for another 3 min and rebooted again for no reason. my phone reboots randomly alot. this happens to me a few times a day usually 2 or 3 times. sometimes while im doing something important and sometimes when the evo is int even being used.
Does anyone have any idea what my problem might be?
My evo setup is fresh 3.3, no custom kernel. ebay 3000mah battery no case or anything like that for overheating. ive been running this setup for months (just with lower fresh builds) and have random reboots. This is the first overheating issue. The only thing thats changed is I started using a .99 ebay blackberry micro usb but ive been using that for a week and never had a charging issue. my hw v is 3

I'm thinking that maybe the battery has an issue. Have you tried with the old battery? As far as the other problems that you have, it does not look good. Try reflashing, if it does not fix it then it is likely that you need your phone replaced.

Im not sure because Ive been using this battery a long time with no problem, even now I plugged in the phone and its charging fine with no problems. If it does this again tonight maybe its the battery, I was thinking maybe it was something to do with that battery being plugged in to long.

Skittles from tampa?

I would say it's your aftermarket battery or BB charger. Try and use the OEM accessories.

what about the rebooting issue? this was there before the aftermarket battery and charger

As I said before, try reflashing the ROM and see how it behaves. If the problem is still there AFTER a clean install then it is hardware related, if not then, well keep the ROM

Ahh lol welcome onboard! Yes I believe it's probably the charger and not the battery. $0.99? Great deal, but be careful.

I got the same over heating issue on the stock battery a day ago. It was burning hot when I woke up, and took out the battery with the ac on blast for a minute. It wasnt plugged in, so I was surprised it happened while on the stock battery. Went to my 3000mah battery from ebay, that I have never had any problems at all with.
I was running cm6 with stock kernel. Im guessing it was a freak accident, since no reboots or any after effect from the heat.
On the positive side, I was able to push down the screen due to the heat and fix my light leakage problem

Is there a chance it might be something to do with apps ive installed?

That is precisely why you need to reflash so you can know for sure if it is a problem with the device itself or just a software glitch.

See if you have too many rotation options checked in cm settings. That made mine reboot a lot. Now just have 90 and no more issues...

I dont use CM I use fresh

The only external item left is the sdcard. Try another. If it still reboots, then return it for service/replacement. The low battery and heat and reboot can all be caused by a large amp draw. Install alogcat from market and look for messages indicating why. You could also use quicksysteminfo from market, and look at the dmsg's.

I have had a similar problem with my girlfriends Evo. Random reboots until it got to the point where it was just stuck rebooting. After reading this thread, I recognize battery heating as a symptom as well. I ended sending it in to HTC for warranty repair. It turned out to be a bad chip of some type. Having seen a number of threads regarding random rebooting, I wonder if there might not be a defective series of these chips. At any rate, the warranty process was quick and easy. No problems since I got the phone back. This was also an unrooted phone, so I think your ROMs are probably working correctly and it is more hardware issue.

you need to reflash bad.
There is nothing hardware related that is going to run you 100 cpu all the time.

HTC Evo charging issues

My evo tends to go slower when on the charger.. It stutters.

Are you using setcpu and a screen off profile of 128/128?

Yes i am using setcpu but not a screen off setting im using performance on charging settings. but if that a complete problem i will delete it.

I see, by any chance are you using a HAVS kernel, because HAVS is basically a setcpu built into the kernel, and using both will cause conflictions, and sometimes undesired performance.

I unistalled it and it goes a little faster doesn't stutter as much.. I think it's my power block.. I really don't use it but it's the fastest thing that charges my phone besides my external battery with usb charger at the bottom.. I guess i just can't use that. But thank you anyway for the help.

My phone's actually been doing that lately. I think in my case, it's a bad charger. It never did it before, but in the last couple weeks it's been super laggy and unresponsive when charging. Almost unusable. I plugged in to my roomate's HTC charger for his shift (identical charger), and the problem was gone. Back to normal. Went back to my charger, and it's back to nearly un useable when plugged in. My cord has a had a couple 'accidents' in the past few weeks, so I'm sure I damaged it.

Oh really.. That's interesting being the first 4g phone i can understand why this phone has so many problems. I like this phone but i can't say i love it. It makes no sense that my phone is already having these problems. I'm glad i didn't renew my contract by getting this phone i brought it from someone. I don't plan on getting a new charger i guess i'll just use my external battery charger. I guess the dude i brought it from didn't know how to take care of his phone. lol

Its obvious that when you charge your phone and use it at the same time, battery is being forced to work, so thats why it gets HOT, and you could probably damage your battery if you still charge it that way.
just plug the charger and dpnt use it till its done charging.

My ZL will run very hot to the touch when running intense 3D games. I've always figured it's normal.

[Q] Overheating and Lag Issues

Hi,
I have the G Pad GPE and was wondering if anyone else is having problems with the back of the unit getting very hot (especially the top) and laggy while playing games (Asphalt 8 in my case)? At times it also gets very hot while charging and when it does so it stops charging. I'd like to see if anyone else is having these issues before I contact Google for a replacement.
Thanks

If you charge it with the original charger, on stock rom, with the stock kern, and it "stops charging" you should just get it replaced, regardless of others having the same issue or not.

Thanks. In general it charges slowly which I see is pretty common. When it overheats (~40°C) during charging it basically stops or charges extremely slowly. It doesn't happen all the time though. When it doesn't overheat it charges ~25% per hour. Regardless of the overheating, is that charge speed normal using the stock charger and cable?
BTW I am stock everything right now. Waiting to mess around with it until I decide to replace it or not.

I have the same problem but myne is not GPE. It is very hot! and laggy i had replaced once but the new unit also has the issue. I dont know how to fix it.

My no longer lags any more apart from the occasional HIC up when watching long 1080p movies

Overheating issue

So after updating my phone to Android 10, I noticed that my phone overheats. I noticed it especially when I leave my phone under my pillow overnight. After waking up, my phone is too hot. Anyone had the same issue?
