Guys... i jus bought a new note 8... this is my frst tab n the devise starts heating up on jusnreadin a few e books... or downloading an app or 2... i was wondering wthrer this was normal... the heating isconfined to the left side of the device... could someone gimme an advice as to whthr dis is normal or not... n also i d taken dis bac to the service center on the 4th day of purchase n they wer willing to replace the device... unfortunately it was not avaliable in the market... the service engineers sed dat this was the normal heating for the device... but agan im a bit skepticalcz i dnt trust dese guys... for al iknw dey might be misleadig me... i was wondering whtr i should go for a reimbursement... the device starts warming up on jus a few mins of photo browsing... i cant measure the exact temp also,.. wud b grateful if somone adviced me as to hw to measure the temp... ( ps: its not the battery temp i want... the battery is more towrds the center of the device... while the heating is confined to the left most region which i gus is wer the quad core processor is located... n btw no much performance issues with it though...battery life is normal too...
Thankyou.

If performance seems good and battery is about 10% drain per hour... then I assume you are noticing normal feel when the CPUs are running hard for a moment or two. Your hand or case cover will keep the heat up when that occurs.
There are a few threads in the Q&A section about battery drain, you may find them useful. If you have a good sized media library, the system will thumb nail cache and index media if using Google apps like, Music and Gallery. The latest Play Music will fix the issue with indexing. But I had to use xposed with Winam module to disable thumb nail cache and DVFS for both better battery charge indication and free up memory from thumbnails being created. For me I had over 300+ MB of cached images that would grow depending on how much media I would store.

Good advice. I personally have not noticed one area getting hotter than another, but I also have a cover.
It is normal to have a little heat, just not excesive.

[Q] Battery Issue into Crash (probably) ?!

Hey guys
I've been using custom roms for while,when i suddenly realize i have some Crash -
Issues with my
Samsung Galaxy W 4.1.2
Currently Using the Parandroid 2.99
with a 2.6.35.14 CM Kernel by camcory
It simply crashes after a while using it,when i reboot it it shows that my battery has maybe 30 percent or less left.
Waiting 2 minutes my battery shows 67 % for example when i try to use i then it crashes again... or even freeze... *sigh
however i tried flashing a new rom ; wiping the davlik cache ; and wipe battery reset , it still doesnt help...
Does anyone have an Idea where the problem is or better how to fix it??
P.S sry when this thread is posted wrong ,im new here rly couldnt find a topic which suit for this
(btw funny Im a noob Video )
greetz thevuhu
i think u need new battery
A good suggestion is you going pristine, unless your battery is fat, then change your battery.
My phone usually have these problem too, its 96%, I flash something new, wipe stuff, goes into launcher its 14%.
But mine doesn't crash.
Does this happen to other ROM?
Thank you for your help so far
im not sure if my battery is fat or not , well i have to admit it doesnt look that perfect anymore , cuz its slightly "blown up"
do u mean that with fat??
Does this have any dangers for me or the hardware of my galaxy?
yeah i flashed around 3-5 roms already... same issues with all , and it always crashes when i the ram usage is increasing , but as long as i kept my galaxy charging nothing happens at all...

Yes, that's a "pregnant"/"fat" battery. Check if you can spin the battery easily on the tabletop.
A good battery is not just flat, it even has a small 'concave' surface.
When your battery can spin easily on top of a flat surface, it's time to buy a new one.

hard to believe that this battery just lived around 1 1/2 year long.
any expreriences / recommendation for the battery?
Should i take an original ?

Usually a Lithium battery lasts only around a year, mine is only close to that and its slightly fat too.
Not compulsory, OEM is just as good as long as it doesn't look like its from China LOL(as a chinese I do not feel proud, but oh heck I'm not from China)

Original is good, but the capacity is kind of small...
There's a thread in the Accessories subforum discussing a high-capacity 2900 mAh battery. Try take a peek there.

CPU Temp is over 65-70C plz help

my phone have several issues but this heating problem worries me the most..
when im not touching the phone (placed on the table with display on but on lock screen) it is 35C to 38C
when i take it in hand nd unlock and even if i do nothing it rises and reaches 42-45C
when i use apps like gmail, maps, or sms the temprature is around 45-48C
when i play small games it goes between 50-60C
but the most worrying part is when i play heavy games.. the temprature goes above 60C and stabilizes at 65C.. aont once in a while it reaches 68C but comes down sooner
when i run benchmarking apps. the temprature went 70C and even reached 72C twice... will the device can handle such temprtures?
i know most of the processors are made to handle not more than 70C.. so im doubting this heat might burn my phone internals..
is it like this for all snapdragon 615 phones? or will it b fixed if they update to lollipop which is best suited for 64 bit processors?
or should i return the phone ( i have 6 days ) coz its defective??
please give me a reasonable reply some1.. i tried all forums and no reply.. please help me... i dont wanna regret buying this phone in the mean time i dont wanna regret returning this phone either so kindly help me
Please check the battery stat, and see which one is using more, I think You have mediaserver issue, If mediaserver is the highest (above 30%)
then find a fix for it, It is a bug in kitkat

Hi Kartik00 ,
Did your issue got fixed? Heating problem got solved ?
It is not a problem!
​It is actually OK. Most of the phones give battery temperature as CPU temperature as they do not have a heat sensor integrated with the CPU.
But for yureka it is different. I mean yureka is special one. It has a heat sensor integrated with CPU. CPU can heat up to 90°c that is normal. But when battery starts to heat up, there is a issue there. Our yureka is fine. :good:
Download CPUz it will give you a pure idea of this

yh thats right.. i realized it after asking around abt other ppl who owns 8core phones its not even a ISSUE.. also after cm12 update my phone doesnt heat much.. hot pluging isnt effective yet though but 2cores (from the performance cores not the power save ones) does goes to sleep when we set it to powersave mode
rollback the update to stock ROM (4.4)
Lollipop is awesome.BT the heating issue is still tr.The CPU governor s are not adjustable in lollipop. BT in kitkat we can adjust it.
In lollipop the CPU always at 950hz (min).so it heats more.

I guess its not just software issue but also a design flaw made by CoolPad. They cover the main processor chip and eMMC chip with aluminum cover. I know this cover is used to prevent dust to get in and static electricity, but it also cause heating problem. Moreover, they place the LCD on top of it. So if you want to get rid the heating problem, don't buy YU, but buy MI 4i instead. If you don't use the phone, the phone temperature will stay at 45-50 degree.
U r suggesting different phone as a solution? & that too atleast 4k costlier one

Anyone facing lags ???

No not that i am aware of.... i also have the same specs as urs... So maybe there is sumthin on ur phone which is eating a lot of ram... First check the ram usage by apps... try freezing the bloatware... If this doesn't work try clearing cache via adb... If nothing of this works we will have to dig deeper

Have not faced any sort of lag since i bought mine, 4GB 2.3Ghz user here. Have you tried running Antutu benchmark to see if it completes all the test without any issues and also to see if the score is inline with other ZF2 users.

First try to contact the store and ask them about lagging issues and all...if u dont feel satisfied with their answers try to get it replaced as warranty is for both hardware and software... Btw rooting ur phone will void ur warranty but if u flash the stock rom back u get ur warranty back... But my suggestion is first try to solve it by calling the store from where u purchased it and of still not satisfied call Asus and get ur device replaced under warranty....
Not at all. CPU is clocked at 500MHz for most of the time anyway and rarely needs to clock too high during usage except for gaming.
In fact, I've even capped my CPU max frequency at 1.8GHz even though I own the 2.3GHz version.
The recent update made my 2GB variant even faster from my initial impressions. Battery seems to be draining less too.
4 GB 1.8GHz here and absolutely no lag. Running smooth at any time.

I have not faced anything of such concern cuz i haven't played any high end game like asphalt , nova all i have played is hitman sniper which runs perfectly and gives me better performance than note 3 also in terms of battery . U might have not disabled apps in auto start manager
Absolutely no lags..even after last OTA update battery isnt draining with same rate as earlier and phone "speeded" up more..about that heating issue, its cuz of fast charging. Use a normal charger and there would be not that much heating it will just warm up little like any device
I will lag a bit just after charging, but mostly when I charge for 30 minutes and the phone is still warm. For those who are having lag or stutter....is your battery life bad? I bet you have an app or game that is constantly drawing on the cpu/gpu....
Mine is laggy but only when Here Maps or Waze are open, and a little while after I close them. During normal use it's a bit laggy, but I have several things running in the background... that's probably it (Facebook, Twitter, Google Now, Swarm, etc.)

I am also facing a bit of frame drops, not lags though. But stutters for sure. Its been only 4 days that i have bought this phone. My phone is on latest firmware. Asphalt 8 shows great amount of stutters and overkill 3 is full of lag. Should i be concerned. I keep almost all my back ground apps closed and have more than 2gb of ram free. Tried formating the phone too.
Lagging
My zf2 4gb 2.3ghz lags . I have checked RAM it is always more than 1gb free but still lags don't know why? Latest ota updated

Over clocking???

Dear ppl of this fourm you kick butt. I was able to unlock and root my g power 2022. I'm a little nervous I can't get twrp back up working, I know it's out there I just want it more main stream.
Here's my question. Over clocking is it possible on this phone. The battery is great and at the end of a long day I'm well over 60% I'd love to turn the clock up on this phone. All the apps you see on ps don't do anything, they also say 2301 is the max mhz. Is it a locked CPU????
Thanks for your time guys and girls
Overclocking a phone is not advisable, because of the extremely limited cooling capacity.
Also, don't use profanity on XDA. Post edited.
I'm very sorry about that. Thanks for fixing it.
I did some bench marks of my phone and the temp bearly moved. I understand the heat that builds up during over clocking and also that mounting a water cooling solution is not possible. I just wondered if it was possible to move the cpu clock ???
Any other ideas on speeding it up??? I'm sure there is a ton I don't know about.
So I did find an app root booster. It's free for the basic over clocking and you can go extreme for a one time but. I am using the free version. And I picked up 6 points on 3d mark. The phone has been very stable all day. It's all preset stuff. Witch is probably better than trial and error.
